Linder and Heather (mother and daughter) are first class, honest locals. They’re the kind of people Dort LAUDERDALE has been missing since being our wonderful small town just north of Miami in the late 1970’s - 1980’s to the predatory, overcrowded, overbuilt, developers paradise as long as you’re one in the pockets of Mayor Dean Tantralis and his lackey of rubber stamp board of city commissioners. An example of Tantralis’s ruining of our city; Trantalis' first term as Mayor has been marred by a growing infrastructure crisis in the City of Fort Lauderdale. The crisis has been partially blamed on the City's practice of diverting money from the water and sewer infrastructure fund to other projects. Since 2012, the City siphoned off at least $106 million from the fund. In 2019, Trantalis falsely claimed to have ended the process later clarifying that "We are weaning ourselves out of it." The process was later rejected by state officials with Florida Department of Environmental Protection Secretary Valenstein stating, "Our message is simple: Engaging in the practice of diverting utility funds and sending that money elsewhere is no way to mitigate, monitor or address the issue of aging infrastructure."[Trantalis later responded saying "We will get cited. There's nothing we can do about that.” Trantalis has also been criticized for his lone vote against a $200 million sewer repair bond claiming he did not understand the "full scope" of the project and doubted the need to borrow such a large sum despite the City's Comprehensive Utilities Strategic Master Plan outlining the need for over $1.4 billion in repairs. In 2020, the sewage crisis ballooned into an environmental disaster after over 211,000,000 gallons of sewage spilled into the City's waterways. The State of Florida Department of Environmental Protection has fined the City over $2.1 million—the largest in State history—as a result of the City's poor handling of the crises
