          MIAMI-DADE ( October 21, 2025 )–

          “Nuestras playas son uno de nuestros mayores tesoros naturales y económicos”, afirmó la Comisionada Milian Orbis. “Protegerlas responsablemente y administrar sabiamente los fondos públicos van de la mano. Al fomentar el diálogo y la transparencia en el proceso de contratación, logramos un ahorro significativo que regresará directamente a la comunidad.”

          La Comisionada Milian Orbis enfatizó que el manejo del sargazo es una prioridad a nivel condal. “Playas limpias y saludables son esenciales para nuestra industria turística, que genera empleos y apoya a pequeñas empresas en cada rincón de Miami-Dade, incluido mi distrito”, señaló. “Cuando protegemos nuestra costa, protegemos nuestra economía.”

          También destacó que cada reunión de la Junta de Comisionados equivale, en efecto, a una audiencia presupuestaria: un momento para salvaguardar los fondos públicos y exigir responsabilidad. “Cada dólar que aprobamos tiene un impacto directo en las familias y los vecindarios”, dijo. “Debemos tratar cada decisión con el mismo cuidado y disciplina que aplicaríamos a nuestros propios presupuestos familiares.”

          La medida garantiza que los fondos del Condado se utilicen de manera eficiente y que las decisiones de contratación sigan sirviendo a los mejores intereses de los residentes y negocios locales. Estos ahorros ayudarán a respaldar servicios esenciales y a preservar la belleza del litoral de Miami-Dade para el disfrute de todos.
