The concept, 'Think Globally, Act Locally,’ originated in 1915 from renowned urban planner Patrick Geddes. It still rings true today. What we do in our families, neighborhoods and towns impacts the world around us. Even the smallest decisions regarding road design, housing, utilities, and waste management ripple outward.
That's why we, as Democrats, must stay involved with our local governments. To find out more about your town in Palm Beach County, click here. And one of the most important ways to get involved is to vote. The next Election Day for municipal elections is March 19, 2024, with early voting from March 9 to March 17.
