I am excited to announce my candidacy for the Cypress Bend Community Board because I believe in the power of collaboration, transparency, and smart decision-making to improve our community. Cypress Bend is more than just a neighborhood, it’s our home. I am committed to ensuring it remains a great place to live by fostering open communication, thoughtful leadership, and a shared vision for the future.

With a background as an Engineering Manager in the Aerospace Industry and previous service in the Army Florida National Guard, I have spent my career solving complex problems, leading teams, and making informed, strategic decisions. I want to bring these same skills to our community to address key issues such as: stronger communication between the Board and residents to ensure your voice is heard; transparency and accountability in decision-making, particularly for major projects; and a balanced approach to maintaining and improving our shared spaces while being mindful of costs. I believe that when we work together, we can make Cypress Bend an even better place to live. I look forward to hearing your thoughts, sharing ideas, and working alongside you to shape the future of our community. I would be honored to have your support. Let’s make a difference—together.

With appreciation,
Arturo
