Miami Lakes Mayor Manny Cid has resumed his “mobile office,” driving to visit residents at their homes or to look into other issues around town, he said.

     He has also begun hosting a podcast, called “305 VOX Populi, Voice of the People with Mayor Manny Cid” that is produced by Mater Lakes Academy.

     New episodes will be released each Wednesday, Cid said. You can follow along on YouTube, Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.
