Overview: During the Biscayne Park Village Commission meeting, a significant proposal was made by resident Dan Samarat to forgo the upcoming November 5, 2024, election due to only three qualified candidates running for three open commission seats. Samarat argued that eliminating the election would save the village and its residents approximately $122,000. He suggested that he would accept a two-year term while the other two candidates could serve four-year terms. This proposal sparked considerable discussion about the financial implications and potential benefits of skipping the costly election process.
