Building a City That Thrives: A Conversation with Boca Raton Mayor Scott Singer

This week on The Interview, Leslie sits down with Mayor Scott Singer of Boca Raton, Florida—a longtime friend and a leader making headlines for his bold vision and steady hand in public service.


Scott shares the story of leaving New York to return to South Florida, what motivated him to first run for City Council, and how his passion for creating jobs and opportunities has shaped Boca Raton into a thriving community. From recruiting businesses and lowering taxes to spearheading transformative infrastructure like Brightline high-speed rail, Scott offers a masterclass in what it means to lead with both vision and pragmatism.


They also dig into big-picture themes: how cities can rebound from decline, why public safety and strong business foundations are essential, and the lessons Scott has learned from fellow mayors nationwide.


This conversation goes beyond policy and politics. At its core, this episode is about vision, service, and the impact one leader can have on an entire community.


If you’ve ever wondered how cities reinvent themselves, how mayors make decisions that shape daily life, or what leadership looks like when done well — this episode will give you a front-row seat.
