8 Mayor s Message - John P. Jack Seiler Dear Bermuda Riviera Neighbors, On behalf of the City of Fort Lauderdale, congratulations on your new Neighborhood Guide and Directory! Communication, citizen participation and community engagement are the cornerstones of building strong neighborhoods and a vibrant, sustainable City. The Bermuda Riviera Homeowners Association directory will encourage neighbor-to-neighbor interaction, facilitate the exchange of information and ideas, and promote the sharing of resources and services in the neighborhood and throughout the community. It will also serve as a useful tool that will enable neighbors to quickly and efficiently locate emergency telephone numbers, contact information for the Bermuda Riviera Board of Directors and the City of Fort Lauderdale, as well as a neighborhood street index and community calendar. We d like to commend board member, Anne Davies-Vicino, who spearheaded this project along with the leadership and support of President John Holmes and the entire Bermuda Riviera Board of Directors. Your hard work and perseverance has resulted in a first-class publication that will fulfill a community need and serve residents for years to come. We would also like to recognize all of the local businesses and organizations that have supported this effort through advertisements and in-kind donations. Their participation and contributions helped maximize resources while keeping costs at a minimum. Finally, we d like to acknowledge the efforts of publisher George Mihaiu of Fort Lauderdale Media Associates for partnering with Bermuda Riviera to bring this important neighborhood communications tool to fruition. Again, congratulations on the Neighborhood Guide and Directory and thank you for continuing to make Fort Lauderdale an outstanding place to live, work, play, visit and raise a family. Very truly yours, 6 John P. Jack Seiler Mayor
