Sunrise City Commission, Seat C | nkerch@sunrisefl.gov
Hello Sunrise!
I am grateful for your support, and I truly appreciate the confidence you showed in me as one of your elected City Commissioners. Since being elected, I have followed my three guiding principles as an elected official, which are: follow your vision for the city, serve with integrity, and deliver results. Every day, I look forward to working with the residents, neighbors, stakeholders, businesses, city staff, and my colleagues on the Commission to make Sunrise the best place to live, work, play, learn, shop, and eat. During my tenure, I have enjoyed speaking and participating in numerous community meetings and events. I am proud of the improvements to the parks and recreation facilities in neighborhoods citywide, the improvements in our Sunrise Police Department’s community-based policing, and improvements in Sunrise Fire Rescue. We are blessed to have the best Public Safety professionals in all of Florida. As we continue to tackle the challenges of the economy and inflation, I want to let you know that as a fiduciary of the public’s tax money, I will continue to make sure that the city maintains a structurally balanced budget without raising the tax millage rate, continues to provide excellent programming and services, and continues to plan for the City’s future with infrastructure improvements and investments throughout the city. I hope over the summer, you will take the time enjoy the many amenities that Sunrise has to offer. Come explore the heart of Original Sunrise at Village Art Plaza, a vibrant public space designed to bring together art, culture, and community. Whether you’re looking for world-class art, delicious bites,
live music, or fresh local finds, this dynamic plaza has something for everyone. For more art opportunities, stop by our Art Gallery to appreciate one of the traveling exhibits or the work of area artists, or check out the Civic Center Theatre for quality, affordable entertainment, including theatrical presentations, musical performances, and children’s programming. Grab your friends and play some tennis at our beautiful Tennis Club or grab the clubs and enjoy a round of golf at The Bridges at Springtree Golf Club, or cool off at the Sunrise Civic Center Aquatic Complex, Welleby Pool, Village Beach Club, Roarke Pool, or at any of the Splash pads located in our beautiful parks. Check out the Athletic Club at the Sunrise Civic Center as well as Multipurpose Centers located at Sunrise Athletic Complex (SAC) and adjacent to City Park (Village). All three facilities have gymnasiums that host a variety of recreation activities which include pickleball, basketball, and fitness programs for all ages and offer free access to select amenities for Sunrise residents. For our Seniors, take advantage of the Sunrise Senior Center which hosts a wide variety of events - including trips, classes, support groups, dances, fitness programs, games, and arts and crafts. As you can see Sunrise has something for everyone and I look forward to seeing you out and about in our city. Sunrise is the city that rises above the rest.
Neil C. Kerch, Deputy Mayor
