“It has always been a passion of mine to figure out how to reduce the City’s carbon footprint as well as save us money,” explains Mayor Kaplan.
The City of Lauderhill has been at the forefront of many green initiatives, largely in part thanks to Mayor Kaplan. He has sponsored many resolutions and initiated several programs that help residents, businesses, and even the City become more conscious of the environment.
