Davie Mayoral Candidate Judy Paul Details Positions on Amendment 3, Infrastructure, Housing

Incumbent Davie Mayor Judith "Judy" Paul, seeking re-election since taking office in 2009, submitted a candidate questionnaire outlining her positions on key local issues. Paul opposes Florida Amendment 3 as written, arguing it would divert non-school property tax revenue from cities without state replacement, and says she would protect public safety, water, sewer, and stormwater services first if the measure passes. She identified public safety, infrastructure (including the new Town Hall under construction), and workforce/affordable housing tied to an $18 million CRA agreement with Broward County as her top three priorities. Paul also highlighted free local bus routes (Green, Blue, South Florida Education Center) and a Triple A bond rating among current town achievements.

Davie Town Council District 4 Candidate Questionnaire: Alex Barr

Alexander "Alex" Barr, a Davie-born civil engineer and longtime resident, submitted a candidate questionnaire for the Davie Town Council District 4 race. Barr's stated priorities include responsible development oversight, safer streets (citing more than 355 accidents on one corridor over five years), and preserving Davie's rural character amid recent farm and horse-facility losses. He supports Amendment 3 for property-tax relief to homestead residents and says the town has not adequately managed growth-related traffic, noise, and infrastructure demands. Barr's professional background includes roles with the Broward County Aviation Department, City of Hollywood, City of Parkland, and Florida DOT.
