Congratulations to our new Mayor Antonio V. Arserio and Vice Mayor Anthony N. Caggiano for their recent appointments in the City Commission. Mayor Arserio and Vice Mayor Caggiano will represent the City of Margate at civic functions and serve in their respective roles for one year.

Get in the spirit of the holidays by visiting the many homes in our City that get all dressed up for the season. Marvel at the many homes that have entered the City’s Holiday Decorating Contest and let us know which are your favorite decorations!

The Margate Police Department is collecting new and unused toys until Dec. 21 for “Tony’s Toy Room.” The room was created several years ago by Officer Tony Careccia to distribute toys to less fortunate children during the holidays. Drop any donated toys at the lobby of the Police Department, located at 5790 Margate Blvd. We appreciate your kind donation

The City of Margate wishes everyone a Happy Holidays.

All City of Margate administrative offices, including City Hall and the NW Focal Point Senior Center, will be closed on Friday, Dec. 24, 2021, in observance of Christmas. 

Please note that there will be no garbage or recycling collection on Christmas Day, Saturday, Dec. 25. If your household's garbage collection falls on Christmas Day, you may place excess garbage next to your garbage cart in personal garbage cans and/or garbage bags on your next scheduled garbage collection day. This exception is only for those who missed a collection day due to the Christmas holiday, which is the only day of the year garbage collection is suspended.
