Broward County is one of the most diverse regions in the country and with a large population and wide variety of minority groups, we value diversity in race, ethnicity, religion, gender identity and sexual orientation. Broward County is committed to providing all businesses fair and equal opportunities to compete for all County contracts. I have brought forth a resolution to develop and include in our procurement process a certified LGBT Business Enterprise (LGBTBE), for inclusion within the current Small Business Enterprise (SBE), County Business Enterprise (CBE), Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) or Airport Concessions Disadvantaged Business Enterprise* (ACDBE) certification opportunities.
