District 2
Commissioner

Mark Flynt

 

 

   As a Miami native, I spent most of my teen years boating in Biscayne Bay, the Keys and the 'Glades and have always felt a spiritual connection to this tropical paradise that I call home. I love it here and feel an obligation not only to be a good steward of the environment, but also to share my experiences and my enthusiasm for South Florida with others.  I graduated from University of Florida with a B.S. in Science in 1978 and, though I loved my time in Gainesville, I believe there's no place like South Florida.  My wife and I and our two daughters make our home in a very special neighborhood, Davie West, and still enjoy a Sunday morning water ski and a Sunday evening Advil. 

   So, come on everyone!  Let's be mindful of the very precious resource that defines and enhances our quality of life and draws people from all around the world to South Florida. Environmental integrity is essential for our economic stability and prosperity, so help us take care of our waterways, and they'll take care of us!

   I served on the Central Broward Drainage District (now the Water Control District) in the early 1990's when we first introduced grass carp into the canals as an alternative to chemical weed control.   It was a great success!  It is my good fortune to be back on the Board serving my community and through our Outreach Program, my fellow Commissioners and I will do everything we can to educate and engage all of you in an effort to promote the health of our waterways.

   I also serve on the Board of Directors at the Grand View Palace Yacht Club where I keep my boat in Miami and serve on the Board of Directors for the Davie West Home Owners Association, for some twenty years, now.
