LAS OLAS BOULEVARD & ISLES 47Glassman continuedof water and wastewater will ensure a cleaner water supply for our neighbors and visitors. Our investments in foundational infrastructure will continue to pay dividends by enhancing quality of life now and for future generations.What this means is that we have begun to factor climate change impacts related to extreme rainfall, a rising groundwater table and sea level rise, into all of our master plans and that we are implementing programs and projects to respond to those anticipated impacts and update our infrastructure accordingly. Innovations such as tidal control valves, green infrastructure and comprehensive utility asset management are all things that are happening in our community along with other sustainable public works and projects.The bottom line: We all want our city to be a great place to live, work and play -- now, next year, and in a hundred years. I am very proud to say that the City of Fort Lauderdale has and will continue to take steps to make that vision a reality.Steven GlassmanDistrict 2 CommissionerCity of Fort Lauderdale
