Endorsement: Antonio Arserio for Margate City Commission

Effective municipal leadership requires a balance of long-term vision, technical policy expertise, and a commitment to keeping a city affordable for families and seniors. In Margate, Mayor Antonio Arserio has spent his tenure demonstrating that proactive governance and smart growth planning can deliver tangible results without compromising the hometown feel residents cherish.

A licensed real estate broker, former Planning and Zoning Board member, and certified Florida Redevelopment Professional, Arserio brings crucial technical expertise to the dais. His approach to Margate’s economic trajectory centers on thoughtful, business-friendly revitalization. Rather than allowing commercial corridors to stagnate or pushing for unchecked overdevelopment, Arserio has worked to attract quality commercial investment, support local small businesses, and enhance the city's tax base responsibly.  

Beyond redevelopment, Arserio’s priority remains the fundamental operations that define daily life in Margate: strengthening public safety, modernizing local stormwater and road infrastructure, and protecting neighborhood parks. Through his work on statewide municipal committees and local district boards, he has consistently fought to bring regional resources back to Margate, ensuring the city's voice is heard on broader infrastructure and countywide planning decisions.

Margate needs proven, energetic leaders who understand the mechanics of municipal government, respect the taxpayer dollar, and focus on delivering practical results. Antonio Arserio has consistently delivered on all counts.

The County proudly endorses ANTONIO ARSERIO for Margate City Commission.
