Village officials and residents honored Stephen R. Mahler, who served as mayor of Atlantic Beach for 18 years —1996 to 2014 — at a dinner at the Ocean Club in Atlantic Beach on July 22.
Mahler, a lawyer, moved into the village in 1995 and a little more than a year later became Atlantic Beach’s chief administrator. Under his guidance, the village attained zoning power, enhanced protecting its shoreline and maintained a strong hold on its finances.
At the dinner, Mahler became an honorary member of the Atlantic Beach Rescue Squad and was given proclamations and citations and a sign that noted his years as the village’s mayor.
