Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava presented her proposed budget for the 2025-2026 fiscal year during a recent government meeting. The mayor emphasized her commitment to creating a budget that meets the needs of residents while ensuring responsible fiscal management.

In her address, Mayor Levine Cava highlighted the importance of delivering essential services and efficiently utilizing taxpayer dollars. She noted that over the past five years, her administration has focused on building a government that effectively serves the community while also providing financial relief to families. This effort has included two consecutive years of tax cuts, resulting in the lowest combined millage rate since 1982.

For the upcoming budget year, the mayor proposed maintaining a flat millage rate, which aims to continue protecting taxpayers while ensuring that core services remain intact. Levine Cava expressed her dedication to fostering a more efficient and accountable county government that prioritizes the needs of both residents and businesses.

The proposed budget reflects the ongoing efforts to ease the financial burden on families in Miami-Dade County, as the mayor seeks to balance fiscal responsibility with the essential services that residents rely on.
