Watch Tana on Palmetto Bay Issues

Meet Tana Llinas, a community organizer and small business owner running for Palmetto Bay Council, Seat 1. On The Michael Miller Show, host Michael Miller sits down with Tana Llinas (Taw-na Ye-Nass) — community organizer, small business owner, and creative agency founder — to talk about why she's running for the open Village of Palmetto Bay City Council seat as Patrick Fiore terms out. They dig into the fiscal threat posed by Amendment 3's homestead exemption changes, traffic and mobility, parks, the farmers market, and the local wildlife that gives the Village of Parks its character.
