Fort Lauderdale deserves a better conversation than “nice beaches.” After a trip to Greenville, South Carolina, I came home thinking about how people talk about the places they love and what we could do better here. I get into Broward’s proposed pause on large data centers, the county’s growing di…
Who should answer when Broward residents call 911? That’s one of the bigger questions I’m following in this local catch-up.

A former educator with nearly three decades in South Florida, Roneet s…

This week, I start with a homeownership lesson from my own Fort Lauderdale water-meter mess. After the smart meter replacement, debris found its way into faucets, shower heads, and toilet lines, and one little shutoff valve turned into a much bigger headache. I share what I learned, why I decided n…
This week, I ask a straightforward local question: when a new development receives public incentives, what should the public expect in return?
