We have known Juan Carlos “JC Bermudez for years as the Mayor of the City of Doral. He is a steady hand at the City of Doral and will bring the same no-nonsense leadership style to Miami-Dade County as the District 12 Commissioner.
As the founding Mayor of the City of Doral, he has fought for the most vulnerable in our community, worked for transparency in government and led in ethics. He has also advocated for human rights and championed freedom for the people of his native Cuba.
Mayor Bermudez is currently a member of the Advisory Board of the United States Conference of Mayors, and is the Vice Chairman of the Miami-Dade County Transportation Planning Organization.
Mayor Bermudez has served as a Board Member of the Florida League of Cities, Miami-Dade County League of Cities, Florida League of Mayors and The United States Conference of Mayors, where he also chaired the International Affairs Committee. His fellow elected officials selected Mayor Bermudez as the President of the Miami-Dade County League of Cities in 2010-2011. Additionally, he serves on the Beacon Council Board and received the Good Government Award from the Greater Miami Chamber of commerce in 2009.
Mayor Bermudez graduated from the University of Miami with a Bachelor of Arts degree and received his law degree from the University of Notre Dame Law School. He has practiced law in South Florida for over 32 years.
Mayor Bermudez has been married to Vivian Bermudez, a special education teacher for almost three decades. They have three children: Eneida Marie, Elena Catherine, and Elisa Nicole, and have resided in Miami-Dade District 12 for the past 22 years.
For these reasons and more, we recommend Mayor JC Bermudez as District 12 Commissioner.
