Miami-Dade County Tax Collector Dariel Fernandez Attends Installation Ceremony of the South Florida Police Benevolent Association
This week, Miami-Dade County Tax Collector Dariel Fernandez attended the Installation Ceremony of the South Florida Police Benevolent Association (PBA), marking the swearing-in of the organization’s Board of Directors and Executive Board for the 2026–2030 term. The event recognized the leadership of the PBA and reaffirmed its role in supporting the men and women of law enforcement across South Florida.
The South Florida PBA represents thousands of law enforcement professionals who serve communities throughout the region. The installation ceremony highlighted the importance of professional leadership, accountability, and continued collaboration between public institutions and those entrusted with public safety.
“As Miami-Dade County Tax Collector, I am proud to stand with the men and women in blue and to always support those who serve and protect our community,” said Dariel Fernandez. “Their work is demanding, their responsibility is great, and their commitment to public safety deserves recognition and respect.”
Fernandez also thanked PBA President Steadman Stahl for his leadership and continued dedication to professionalism, service, and the well-being of law enforcement officers. The ceremony underscored the shared responsibility between government leaders and public safety professionals to uphold the rule of law and maintain trust within the communities they serve.
The Miami-Dade County Tax Collector’s Office works closely with law enforcement partners on a range of operational and public safety matters, including fraud prevention, identity protection, and the integrity of government services. Supporting law enforcement, Fernandez noted, is an essential part of maintaining safe, orderly, and accountable communities.
The event served as a reminder that effective government depends on strong institutions, principled leadership, and the dedication of public servants committed to protecting the public every day.
