                  HONORING COMMISSIONER DENISE LANDMAN

                                 ______
                                 

                        HON. FREDERICA S. WILSON

                               of florida

                    in the house of representatives

                      Thursday, December 15, 2022

  Ms. WILSON of Florida. Madam Speaker, from the 24th District of the 
great State of Florida, I rise today to honor Denise Landman for her 
stellar service and contributions as Commissioner of the City of 
Aventura.
  Someone once said this about local government, ``when you are in 
local government, you are on the ground, and you are looking into the 
eyes and hearts of the people you are there to serve. It teaches you to 
listen; it teaches you to be expansive in the people with whom you talk 
to; and that engagement gives you political judgment.''
  It is this same standard of leadership and approach that has 
distinguished her success at the City of Aventura. With input given 
from passionate public servants like Commissioner Landman, Aventura is 
certain to have a bright future guided by a grounded approach to local 
governance, cooperation, and investment in the well-being of this 
community achieved during her tenure in office as a Commissioner.
  Madam Speaker please join me in honoring Commissioner Denise Landman 
for the completion of her term in office, her time, her commitment, and 
outstanding contribution representing the residents of the City 
Aventura.
