Last month, REDBROWARD pointed out the hypocrisy of Fort Lauderdale District 4 Commission candidate Kevin Cochrane. While he rants and raves about tall buildings ruining infrastructure and the beach, Cochrane purchased two units in the pricey (and tall) Point of The Americas building directly on Fort Lauderdale beach. Cochrane’s do-as-I-say-not-as-I-do attitude isn’t surprising. After all, Cochrane admits he wants to make Fort Lauderdale more like his home state of California.
Cochrane’s hypocrisy was on display again this week when his campaign released a new online video.
In the commercial, two Cochrane supporters discuss why voters should select him to replace Ben Sorensen. Both mention Cochrane’s commitment to curb development and infrastructure.
Oddly enough, both videos were filmed atop a large Fort Lauderdale skyscraper overlooking downtown and the river.
In Team Cochrane’s world, they get to live in the million dollar beachfront condos. They get to work from the buildings with million dollar views of yachts going up and down the New River.
You? Well, you might need to live in a tiny home in grandma’s backyard or a micro-apartment to protect the sewers from bursting.
