Resnick, a shareholder in GrayRobinson’s Fort Lauderdale law firm office, Mayor of Wilton Manors and chair of the firm’s Communications, Cable and Broadband Law practice group, received the Florida League of Cities 2017 Home Rule Hero Award for his tireless efforts to advance the League’s legislative agenda and help protect the home rule powers of Florida’s cities during the 2017 legislative session. This is the second consecutive year that Mr. Resnick has received this award. Home Rule is the ability for a city to establish its own form of government and enact ordinances, codes, plans and resolutions without prior state approval. The Home Rule Hero Award recipients are local government officials – both elected and nonelected – who consistently responded to the League’s request to reach out to members of the legislature and help give a local perspective to an issue.
