the lumbers to balance city
budgets, and messing for
results, while listening and
putting maidens first."
M Escalona win would
deal another blow to the
Carib dynasty following
Joe Grolb's fourth -place
finish in the crowded may-
or's race in early Novem-
ber. The commission race
could be viewed in some
ways as a referendum on
his leader hip considering
he's occupied the District 3
seat since 2017.
ROOKIE VS. VETERAN
COMMISSIONER
With just over a month to
campaign between Me
general election and the
runoff , Escalaa has had
his work cut out for him as
he competes against a
Miami household name.
Frank Caroller led the eight -
candidate race in the Nov.
4 general election with
nearly 38% of the vote —
20 points ahead of Escalo-
na, who segued the sec-
ond -place spot with just
over 17%.
But Escalau, 34, said
he's up for the challenge.
When he moved to Miami
from Cuba 11 years ago, he
didn't speak any English.
He began taking language
classes at Miami Dade
College and landed a job
busing tables at a Permian
restaurant downtown.
From Brae, he mocked his
may rap her the restaurant
sane, from food [ulna to
waiter to floor manager,
then assistant general man-
ager, while also rmdying
political science and in-
tem:Bmrd relations at
Florida Innervational Uni-
venity.
"Nothing hes been given
to me," Eralone raid.
"Nothing."
Escelona is facing off
against Frank Garotte, 55, a
certified public accountant
with two tams as a city
commissioner under his
belt Caroller said in a text
that hisvision for District 3
invokes a "Residents Fart
mentality, where people's
voices are heard and their
issues are being addressed
by a Commissioner that
has the omen knowledge
and experience to deliver
results and make a differ-
ence. This vision includes
clean neighborhoods that
are ode and walkable un-
der tree carepiee and with-
out the fear of speeding
Vehicles through neigh-
borhood streets."
Escalona, on the ohs
hand, has never tan fa
office. But he said his lack
of political experience
might actelly be an asset
"We have same commis-
sioners with experience,"
Esealaa said. "What did it
get a to? lawsuits?"
Escalona is vying to
replace Joe Catdlo, who's
faced a Blum of litigation
in recent years. In 2023, a
jry awarded a S63 million
judgment to the operators
of the Ball & Chain night-
club in Little Havana, find-
ing that they were victims
of a pdktrcel retatiatron
campaign Pushed by Car-
ollo after they supported
his opponent in the 2017
election Last year, the city
seated a separate but telet-
ed lawsuit for $125 ndllion,
and it has been in ongoing
settlement discussions 1n a
third related suit
"So where did experi-
ence gar us?" Escalona
said. "Because nothing got
fired."
He said that in Little
Haves, fur example, "You
have haves that an falling
apart, and these people
canna afford to change •
window or the door."
Wide is his feat time
running ning for dace, Escalona
has already experienced
the
1, trial -by -fire that is Mia-
mi
politics. In October,
another District 3 candi-
date, Denise Galvin Toros,
sued Eaalao and alleged
that his residency was a
"sham" in an attempt to
knock him off the ballot.
During a three-hour trial,
Galva Turtos's attorney
scrutinized grader details,
like Escabm's Amon
purchase history, and ana-
lyzed time -stamped photos
of an apartment building
Escalona testified he's been
living in since last summer.
A Miami -Dade Circuit
Caul judge ultimately
sided with Escalona, al-
though she said Mere were
notable discrepancies in
some financial documents
that could create "serious
issues" going forward,
albeit with no bearing on
the residency question -
If elected, Escalate said
one of the first pieces of
legislation he'll push for is
publishing all ay employ-
ees' salaries online, similar
to haw Miami -Dade Coun-
ty don it, so that the in-
formation is immediately
available to the public. He
also wants to improve trash
pickup in the district, re-
duce property taxes for
senior homeowners and fix
the city's pemdtting depart-
ment
Escalona said he would
give lee Cameo an "F"
grade as the Dtstrdct 3
mmmissiotner. He pointed
to arguments on the dais
that Cat0Bo has been in -
Yoked fa
"You are an elated
official representing a dw
trict in the city of Miami,
one of the most powerful
cities is America, and you
are fighting with another
commissioner?" Escalona
said. "That's a shame."
"You know what you
won't sot from me?" he
added. "Retaliation. That's
never going to happen with
me."

needs to carefully vet pro-
posals to ensure that they
come with "appropriate
public benefits" and that
their height and size aren't
going "haywire" beyond
what zoning rules allow.
"I've never once spoken
with anybody that seys,'1
wish we had more build-
usgl, Matteo-SoBnas told
the Editorial Board. "Usu-
ally, they ay, you Imow,
let's keep our hometown
fed, la's keep our small-
town chaps. And I agree
with that"
Pardo Pope: In her Edi-
torial ]bad interview,
Pardo Pope emphasized
public safety as a top pri-
ority. The city needs to
support its poke officers,
she said, and address
homelessness through a
combination of "leveraging
resources in a compassion-
ate way" and enforcing
anlicamping laws.
Pardo Pope also spoke
about the issue of "overde-
velopment," =Ting it KR'
pacts infrastructure, sewage
systems and traffic conges-
tion. Incentives for the
community are key, she
said.
"We noun grow, but we
teed to do it in a very
smart Amy that doesn't
overaden our infrastruc-
ture, which has aheady
presented itself to be a
problem," Pardo Pope told
the Editorial Board.
