Paule Villard

Unsung Heroes March 31, 2022 In March 2022, North Miami Beach Commissioner Paule Villard hosted an event honoring 34 women from the community. The self-congratulatory event cost taxpayers nearly $25,000 when factoring in overtime pay for city staff, police, and other expenses. Out of the 34 honorees, almost all were personal friends and family rather than representing the amazing residents of North Miami Beach. Only 2 honorees actually lived in the city. The guest list suggested the event catered to Commissioner Villard's own vanity rather than the broader population of taxpayers who funded it. -Attention North Miami Beach Commissioner Paule Villard – A Lesson on Ethics and Nepotism

Misuse of Taxpayer Funds for Personal Use - Donation to Political Party December 3, 2021 In late 2021, Commissioner McKenzie Fleurimond misused his taxpayer-funded P-Card to pay for a private table at a fundraiser for the Democratic Party of Florida. Not only is this a violation of the city charter, but this $300 donation serves no benefit to the residents of North Miami Beach. In October 2023, the Florida Commission on Ethics issued a ruling finding probable cause that McKenzie Fleurimond abused his position and will be moving forward with a formal case against McKenzie Fleurimond. -Florida Commission on Ethics - Probable Cause Found McKenzie Fleurimond Abused His Position
