On the environment, Arthur understands that protecting clean water, natural resources, and resilient infrastructure is not optional; it is essential.

The agenda places Everglades restoration at the center of the district’s future, supporting efforts tied to the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (CERP) to improve water flow and timing, protect wetlands, reduce harmful discharges, and strengthen natural systems that help buffer flooding and storm impacts. The platform also calls for measurable progress, transparency, and accountability so restoration delivers real results—not just promises. Alongside restoration, the platform emphasizes year-round hurricane, flooding, and sea-level rise preparedness through practical infrastructure investments: stronger drainage and canal systems, hardened utilities, safer roads, and emergency planning that reaches every neighborhood, especially communities with fewer recovery resources.

On affordability, Boyer believes families need relief from the rising costs that make everyday life more difficult. Housing costs, insurance burdens, and the overall cost of living have made stability harder to achieve for too many households.
