Where Erick Stands
Minneola is growing fast. Erick Hernandez has a clear, practical plan to make sure that growth works for residents — not against them.
Smart Growth That Serves Residents
Minneola's explosive growth has brought opportunity — but also traffic, overcrowding, and strain on city services. Erick believes growth must be managed responsibly, with residents at the table.
Erick's Commitments
- Require impact fees that fully fund the infrastructure new developments demand.
- Establish a Residents Advisory Board to review major development proposals before approval.
- Protect green space, tree canopy, and the lakefront character that defines Minneola.
- Enforce existing zoning codes and hold developers accountable to their commitments.
Roads, Parks & Services That Work
Residents deserve roads that aren't gridlocked, parks that are maintained, and city services that respond. Erick will make infrastructure investment a top budget priority.
Erick's Commitments
- Develop a 5-year road improvement plan targeting the most congested corridors.
- Expand and maintain parks, trails, and recreational facilities for families of all ages.
- Improve stormwater management to reduce flooding in vulnerable neighborhoods.
- Modernize city technology to make permits, payments, and requests faster and easier.
A Safe City for Every Family
Public safety is the foundation of a thriving community. Erick will fully support Minneola's first responders and invest in the programs that keep every neighborhood safe.
Erick's Commitments
- Meet with LCSO on a consistent basis to ensure Minneola has enough deputies patrolling at all times.
- Ensure Minneola Fire Department is fully funded and staffed.
- Launch yearly Town Hall events with the Sheriff and residents
- Partner with Lake County on traffic safety improvements at the city's most dangerous intersections.
City Hall That Works for You
Residents deserve to know what their government is doing and why. Erick will make transparency and accountability the standard — not the exception — at Minneola City Hall.
Erick's Commitments
- Hold quarterly town halls in every district so every resident has a voice.
- Publish a clear, plain-language city budget summary every year.
- Create an online dashboard tracking city projects, timelines, and spending.
- Respond to every resident inquiry within 48 hours — no exceptions.
