Mayor Glenn Singer has served as Mayor of the Town of Golden Beach for more than 20 years, providing visionary leadership and guiding the community through a period of unprecedented growth and transformation. Originally elected to the Town Council in 2001, he quickly recognized that achieving meaningful and lasting change would require a broader leadership role. For this reason, after serving one four-year term as a Councilmember, he successfully ran for Mayor and was officially sworn into office on February 15, 2005.
Mayor Singer brings a diverse and accomplished professional background to public service. A graduate of Florida State University with a degree in Accounting, he later earned his Certified Public Accountant (CPA). Beyond his responsibilities as Mayor, he is an active investor and advisor to businesses across a range of industries including real estate, technology, and private equity. He is also a dedicated philanthropist who regularly supports charitable organizations and community causes such as the Women’s Breast & Heart Initiative, Best Buddies International, United Way, the Institute of Contemporary Art (ICA Miami), St. Thomas Aquinas, MeYad Jewish Outreach, and Magen David Odom.
Initially drawn to the Town of Golden Beach due to its beauty, exclusivity, security, and premier oceanfront location, Mayor Singer relocated his family to the Town in 1997. Inspired by his desire to contribute to the Town’s future, he became deeply involved in civic affairs and community service, laying the foundation for what would become a long and impactful tenure in local government.
Under Mayor Singer’s leadership, Golden Beach has experienced extraordinary growth and development. One of his most notable achievements has been fostering the growth of the Town’s assessed property values from just over $400 million to $2.5 billion today. His administration has overseen numerous transformative projects, including the development of the Town’s Civic Center Complex and Landfall Team Bunker (which was featured in Trend Magazine), the undergrounding of all utilities, and the successful approval of two General Obligation Bonds totaling $21.5 million.
Mayor Singer also championed the implementation of high-speed 5G fiber for all residents, which was an innovative achievement that positioned Golden Beach as one of the first communities of its size in the nation to provide such infrastructure. Additional accomplishments include major sewer system upgrades, stormwater improvements to mitigate flooding, installation of new water system piping, replacement of all three of the Town’s bridges, construction of three new tennis courts and two pickleball courts, a bocce court, putting greens, and the expansion of Town parks from two to nine to accommodate a growing number of young families.
Public safety has always remained one of Mayor Singer’s highest priorities. Throughout his tenure, he has led efforts to modernize the Town’s security infrastructure and strengthen its Police Department to ensure Golden Beach remains among the safest communities in Florida. More than 285 security cameras have been installed throughout the Town, along the Intracoastal, and along the shoreline for our oceanfront residents for total Town-wide coverage along with six emergency call boxes that provide immediate access to assistance. Under Mayor Singer’s leadership, the Town has also expanded its public safety capabilities through the acquisition of a drone program and the creation of its first marine patrol and motor units. In 2013 the Police Department achieved its first State Accreditation and has successfully maintained its accredited status ever since.
In the upcoming months, his focus remains on fulfilling the Town’s commitment to deliver our new state-of-the-art Wellness Center Complex and Community Center for all of our residents to use by the end of 2026. There are also several exciting projects that are currently underway, including our highly anticipated Reimagined Tweddle Park. This project will feature two age-specific playground areas, the addition of a padel court, basketball court, and a dog park with dedicated areas for large and small dogs respectively. Together with ongoing infrastructure investments and quality-of-life enhancements, this project represents another major milestone in the continued evolution of Golden Beach.
As Golden Beach continues to grow and evolve, Mayor Singer remains a driving force of innovation, stability, and progress for the Town. His career stands as a testament to the power of long-term vision, trusted leadership, and meaningful public service. His continued dedication over the past two-and-a-half decades exemplifies a lasting legacy of career excellence and commitment to his community. His ongoing investments in the Town further signifies that Golden Beach will remain as a premier destination to live and raise a family in South Florida for years to come.
