STATE OF THE CITY

2021 // #TLHSOTC


 

As the proud Mayor of Tallahassee, I know we all love our vibrant and diverse community. I don’t need to tell you that the past couple of years have been difficult, but as your Mayor I’m here to tell you that Tallahassee is stronger than ever and stronger than you may even know. We are a resilient, thriving community that is setting the standard other communities aspire to.

 

As you watch this year’s State of the City, I hope you’ll learn a few things you didn’t know and join me in celebrating our accomplishments. You can learn more about these accomplishments below.

 

Tallahassee is Resilient
Employees Wearing Masks
  • First utility in the state to suspend the disconnection of utilities for those who couldn’t pay due to COVID
  • $6 million in financial assistance to customers during covid
  • $2 million in relief to help nearly 500 small business and more than 250 non-profits
  • Partnered with local business to provide 25,000 masks for frontline workers and the public
  • Utility workers lived at work to stay healthy so they could keep our lights on

 

Tallahassee is Thriving
Southside Action Plan
  • $1.5 billon being invested in the Southside
    • FAMU Way
    • Bond Linear Park
    • New Lake Bradford Fire Station
  • We’re investing in affordable housing and making it easier to bring new affordable housing units online
  • Goal: Create 10,000 jobs in four years
  • Positive Economic Trends
    • New, single family construction permits up 30%
    • Unemployment rate down 3.9 points
    • Average weekly wage up 13%

 

Tallahassee is Leading the Way
Disc Golf
  • At 55% we have the largest tree canopy of any city our size in the nation
  • Goal: 100% net, clean renewable energy by 2050
  • Cut overall emissions by 93%
  • Largest airport-based solar farm in the world
  • First city in Florida to power 100% of city-owned buildings with solar energy
  • #1 disc golf course in the state
  • Created Mayor’s LGBTQ+ Advisory Council
  • We banned the harmful practice of conversion therapy
  • Scored a perfect 100 on the Human Rights Campaign’s Municipal Equality Index

 

Tallahassee is resilient, thriving, and leading the way because of the great men and women who come to work every day to serve our community and because of citizens like you who choose every day not to tear down but to build up.

 

Thank you, Tallahassee, for working hard to make our community one we can all be proud of. We’ve made great progress but we’re not stopping. I’m asking you to join me to help create the city that is better today than it was yesterday and better tomorrow than it is today.
