Randy Strauss will protect the height limit in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea

Protect the Height Limit

Lauderdale-by-the-Sea is special because it still feels like Lauderdale-by-the-Sea. As Mayor, Randy will protect the height limit and the charter to defend the small-town scale that safeguards our neighborhoods.

Local First

The mayor's job is local. Lauderdale-by-the-Sea does not need Town Hall pulled into every national fight. We have enough work to do right here.

Public Safety

Safe streets. Safe crossings. Safe mornings on the beach.

Randy raised his daughters in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea. He knows what it means to want your daughter to go for a six in the morning jog and come home safe.

That is why Randy supports visible, practical public safety:

  • Stronger patrol presence.
  • Safer crossings.
  • Better lighting where needed.
  • Clear beach safety education.
  • Serious attention to speeding, noise and quality-of-life problems.

Randy will work with the sheriff's office to ensure deputies have the resources they need to keep our town safe while putting our residents first.

Conservative Where It Counts

Low taxes. Careful spending. Strong public safety. Clean neighborhoods. Respect for families, seniors, small businesses and property owners. That is what local government should do.

Lauderdale-by-the-Sea Always

From veterans ceremonies to local businesses, Fourth of July traditions and neighborhood conversations, Randy shows up for the town he calls home.

ENDORSEMENT ALERT!

State Representative Chip LaMarca endorses Randy Strauss for Mayor. Chip LaMarca and Randy Strauss stand together outdoors. Thank you Chip, for your support! Election Day is Tuesday, November 3rd. Quote from State Representative Chip LaMarca, District 100: I have been honored to serve for 16 years as your county commissioner and your state representative. Vice Mayor Randy Strauss and I have worked together to advance the needs of Lauderdale-by-the-Sea for years, and I know he is the mayor we need at this critical time. Randy understands small-town character, safe neighborhoods, and strong local businesses are what make Lauderdale-by-the-Sea special. As Vice Mayor, Randy has stayed focused on the basics that matter most: protecting the height limit, keeping taxes low, supporting public safety, and always putting people over politics. As mayor, he will continue that common sense approach and always put you first.
