Hammond’s stability is directly tied to its livability. In addition to economic factors, people are always searching for the intangible but important “quality of life” aspect of a community when choosing a place to call home. Since I’ve been Mayor, Hammond’s quality of life has improved, and will continue to improve. Hammond is blessed to be located on Lake Michigan, but until fairly recently, that view was primarily an industrial view. Only recently have family friendly and ecologically appropriate improvements have been made to Hammond’s lakefront property with an aim towards preservation as well as enjoyment. The brand new pavilion on Wolf Lake not only beautifies the shores, but provides entertainment and cultural opportunities for Hammond’s families year round. The City of Hammond also supports educational opportunities and choices with a state of the art Charter School as well as the College Bound program which insures that Hammond’s best minds have a chance to succeed regardless of family income. Hammond, under my administration also continues to encourage and promote economic development. Hammond encourages existing business to put their best face forward by way of the façade rebate program and continues to work to beautify the gateways leading into our beautiful City.
Through continuity of leadership and direction, and built upon consensus of the community, we identify and implement strategies, programs and services, necessary to promote and sustain the quality of life and lifestyles unique to Union County.

Boston was first incorporated as a town in 1630, and later as a city in 1822. Although City Government played a major role in Boston`s development, the real spirit lies in the diverse and vibrant neighborhoods of the City. Today, the City is governed by the Mayor and the City Council with the assistance of various departments, agencies and commissions.
Key Biscayne operates under the Council-Manager form of government in accordance with its Charter. Legislative authority is vested in a seven member Village Council consisting of a Mayor and six Council Members all elected at large and on a non-partisan basis. The mayor and the council members are elected by the electors of the Village for a two-year term. No person shall serve as mayor for more than two consecutive elected terms, and no person may serve on the council, or as any combination of mayor and council member, for more than eight consecutive years. The Council, as the legislative body of the Village, determines public policy to meet community needs and appoints a Village Manager who is responsible for administration of that policy and managing the Village`s departments and services. The Council also appoints the Village Clerk and the Village Attorney. The Council is responsible for the overall direction of the village and general welfare of Key Biscayne residents. Village Council elections are held on the first Tuesday after the first Monday of November, every even numbered year. To be eligible to seek office, a person must be a resident of the Village of Key Biscayne for at least one year and be a qualified elector of the Village. The members of the Village Council also serve as the Local Planning Agency. The Local Planning Agency was responsible for the development of the Comprehensive Master Plan. The Council sits as the Zoning Appeals Board. The Local Planning Agency was created by Ordinance 92-08 on February 25, 1992. Its purpose is to prepare the local comprehensive plan and conduct the comprehensive planning program. All meetings of the Local Planning Agency are public meetings and agency records are public. The Master Plan was adopted by the Village Council by Ordinance 95-8, September 12, 1995 and accepted by the Florida Department of Community Affairs on October 20, 1995.
