Mayor Buddy Dyer Receives ULI Trendsetter Award

ULI Central Florida, a nonprofit that promotes responsible land use and creating and sustaining thriving communities worldwide, presented Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer with its 2019 Trendsetter Award. The honor recognizes projects, initiatives and individuals for demonstrating forward-thinking ideas and practices.

The presentation took place at the Dr. Phillips Performing Arts Center in February during ULI Central Florida’s Real Estate Trends Conference. The annual event provides an outlook on real estate investment and development trends, real estate finance and capital markets, property sectors, and other real estate issues relevant to Central Florida.

“I am humbled to be named the recipient of the 2019 ULI Central Florida Trendsetter Award,” Dyer said. “I accept this award on behalf of our public- and private-sector partners and our residents who have dedicated themselves to ensuring our city is growing smarter, investing in infrastructure and further diversifying our economy so that Orlando continues to thrive while providing our residents with an unmatched quality of life.”
