I'm writing to address the recent misleading and defamatory attacks against Yvette Benarroch, a candidate whose integrity, dedication, and unwavering commitment to our community are beyond reproach. The truth is that Affordable Landscaping Service and Design, a company owned by Yvette and her husband, has held the City of Marco Island contract for Medians and Roadways for many years, and continues to do so today. Over the years, this company has saved the City of Marco Island millions of dollars, demonstrating Yvette's commitment to fiscal responsibility and community service.
What’s particularly telling is that her opponent, a sitting member of the Marco Island City Council, voted along with the rest of the council to renew these contracts in both 2022 and 2023. Only in 2024, due to the race for the Florida House in District 81 did he suddenly recuse himself. This kind of duplicity shows the true character of Yvette’s opponent—a person who is willing to manipulate the truth for political gain.
We do not need a leader who deceives the public and resorts to dirty politics to win. Yvette Benarroch, on the other hand, has been a pillar of our community for over 20 years. She has tirelessly dedicated herself to service through numerous nonprofit organizations, including Rotary, Kiwanis, Our Daily Bread Food Pantry, and many others. As a Gulf War veteran who held top security clearance, Yvette understands the profound meaning of sacrifice and service.
Yvette is running for office not out of self-interest, but from a genuine desire to continue serving the community she loves. She understands the blessings of the American dream because she has lived it—raising her family, building her business, and contributing to the betterment of our district for over two decades. Yvette Benarroch's record of service speaks for itself, and it is this record that makes her the leader we can trust to represent us with honesty, integrity, and a commitment to every family, senior, and veteran in our district.
Don’t be misled by the unfounded attacks from her opponent. Yvette Benarroch is the leader we need, someone who embodies the values of service, truth, and community.
