On March 22, Founding Member Richard Jay Weiss will be speaking at the Good Government Initiative as part of a four member panel discussing “The Tension over Pensions: Good Public Policy or Obsolete Extravagance?” The Good Government Initiative is a program that provides early-career elected and appointed officials with leadership training and community conversations with the public to consider issues important to governance in the community. The Good Government Initiative was founded by former Miami-Dade Commissioner Katy Sorenson, who will serve as the moderator for the upcoming panel.
Richard has served as City Attorney for nearly a dozen South Florida municipalities and special counsel and labor counsel to many more. Prior to joining WSH, Richard served for seven years as an Assistant County Attorney for Miami-Dade County. He currently serves as City Attorney for Homestead and Village Attorney for Bal Harbour.
