LET'S KEEP LETITIA NEWBOLD!

Dear Oakland Park Family,

I am a proud lifelong resident of Broward County and even prouder to have built my first home in Oakland Park just over 16 years ago—one of my absolute best decisions. It’s been an honor to serve as your Commissioner, and I am excited to seek re-election as your choice for Oakland Park Commissioner on November 5th.

With over 20 years of paralegal experience, in both Foreign and Domestic Intellectual Property Portfolios totaling over $15 billion in the Communications and Pharmaceuticals industries, I am well-equipped to safeguard and manage the fiscal and operational affairs of our great city.

I hold a BS degree in Business Management from the University of Phoenix and an honors MS degree in Criminal Justice from Nova Southeastern University. My service is grounded in the values of accountability, reliability, and credibility—principles instilled in me by my entrepreneurial parents, who owned and operated a business, the Castle Restaurant, in the heart of Broward County for over 25 years, demonstrating true dedication to community service.

As my current term comes to an end, I am deeply grateful for the trust you’ve placed in me. The progress we’ve made, the challenges we’ve faced, and the bonds we’ve built inspire me to continue this journey together!

Thank you for your support, and I look forward to continuing to serve you.

Please remember to vote for Letitia Newbold on Tuesday, November 5, 2024!
