Campbell is pleased to announce that Gary Pyott, VP of Operations for South Broward & Miami-Dade is running for City of Aventura Commissioner, Seat #2.
Born and raised in Pennsylvania, Gary moved to South Florida in 1975 to attend a four-year sports administration program at Biscayne College, now St. Thomas University. He later opened his project management consulting firm, Association 1st LLC, which collaborates with homeowner associations to handle major capital project restorations.
Gary, a resident of Aventura, joined Campbell in 2019 as the VP of Operations for the South Broward and Miami-Dade office. He is a 20-year veteran in the community association services industry and was President of North America’s largest provider of community association services for 17 years before his time at Campbell.
Gary currently serves as chairman of the Aventura Chamber of Commerce, a network of business leaders dedicated to fostering growth and generating tax revenue for schools and infrastructure. Appointed by Gov. Ron DeSantis, he also chairs the Regulatory Council for Community Associations under the Department of Business and Professional Regulation in Tallahassee, where he reviews and advises on legal changes, rule adoption, education requirements, exams, and professional conduct standards. Additionally, Gary is a founding member and current board chairman of the Aventura Police Foundation.
Gary emphasized how his involvement with Tallahassee and his experience working with homeowner associations from both a management and board of directors position gives him a unique vantage point to understand what affects residents in Aventura.
“My work gives me a great perspective to talk to them about what they are experiencing in rising insurance costs and capital projects that are affected by changes in laws over the last few years. Redevelopment is inevitable, and we must make thoughtful decisions that truly benefit our community.” - Gary Pyott
If elected to the commission, Gary said he will prioritize residents' safety by backing the police department, strengthening the connection between residents and their community associations to enhance their impact, and guiding the city’s future redevelopment to ensure it aligns with Aventura's long-term vision, rather than merely increasing the tax base.
If you are a resident of Aventura and would like to vote for Gary Pyott, please vote #105 on Tuesday, November 5th.
