Voters in Palmetto Bay will choose a new mayor on Election Day, and they will also decide Amendment 3, a statewide measure that could affect the village’s finances. CBS News Miami asked the mayoral candidates how they would run the village if the amendment passes.
The village relies heavily on property taxes to pay for its services, which is why the amendment carries weight for local budgets. CBS News Miami’s report focuses on the candidates’ answers about how they would manage the village’s budget in that scenario.
For Palmetto Bay residents, the outcome could shape how services are paid for in the years ahead. The report is a video segment, and the candidates’ full responses are available on the CBS News Miami website.
