It is with tremendous pride and humility that I begin my year as the Chair of the City, County and Local Government Law Section of The Florida Bar….We are the frontline of the legal system for so many things that make our incredible government work. From working on planning, growth and development matters to assisting first responders and emergency personnel during times of crisis to assuring the orderly daily operation of normal government activities by assuring with compliance of the Public Records law and the Government in the Sunshine Act. These are but a few examples of the many ways that our members serve the public and it’s vital to remember that we all have the opportunity and the responsibility to serve to the best of our ability as local government attorneys…
