Anywhere you go in the State of Florida, business owners and every day citizens are likely to know  about Martin County.  Martin's relatively contained growth, low density, undisturbed natural resources, and  water activities/access make the county a much sought after destination for vacationers, new residents, and businesses alike.

Your Florida Business Forum Podcast host Sam Yates recently sat down with District 4 County Commissioner Sarah Heard to discuss some of the basic qualities of life in Martin County that are impacted by Commissioner Heard's  leadership. 

You will learn of the various goals and issues for the long time, dedicated to the public Commissioner.

It was a frank conversation with honest answers that were refreshing in today's sometimes charged world of politics, that gave an inside look at how political leaders at all levels can learn from basic governance.

Commissioner Heard's appearance is part of a developing series of episodes by Republican  elected office holders in and representing the residents and businesses of Martin County . Local, State, and Federal office holders will have the opportunity to be featured here on The Florida Business Forum .

West who advises clients and municipalities says things look pretty rosy right now. There are a number of factors you will discover that are making Florida attractive to business investors.
