What Property Tax Reform Really Means for the County Budget | Daniella Levine Cava

Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava joins us to break down the biggest financial question facing the county right now — what happens if property tax reform actually passes. She explains the real challenges behind this year's county budget, what services and community based organizations could be at risk if funding dries up, and why she believes residents need to understand the full picture before forming an opinion.

We also get into the huge voting win that will bring Marine Stadium back to life, the first phase of the Ludlam Trail, AI-powered traffic lights, the Seaquarium land situation, police officer salaries and recruitment struggles, and the latest on MIA airport renovations. Plus her top 3 Miami restaurants.

If property taxes affect you — and they affect everyone — this is the conversation to hear.
