Dannheisser <br />Dear Mayor Samson and City Commissioners: <br />City Attomey <br />Please review the attached proposed resolution that I have prepared in an effort to <br />better convey the concept of initiating a Fashion, Film, Entertainment and <br />Production Council. Such a group would devote its efforts to advising the City <br />Commission on ways of attracting, encouraging, promoting and maintaining a <br />positive environment for economic development of the fashion, film, radio, <br />television, recording and production industries to work within Sunny Isles Beach. <br />We have seen the economic benefits which have followed these industries in <br />communities that successfully used similar committees, such as Miami Beach, Ft. <br />Lauderdale, Orlando, Palm Beach, Hollywood and others. Our City is an ideal <br />location for film "shoots" as well as for use by casting agencies and production <br />companies which will create jobs, and boost the economy through increased <br />business in local shops, hotels, apartments and restaurants. <br />Through professional contacts, I have already had conversations with several <br />people in the motion picture and film production business, encouraging them to <br />consider our city as a location for their next projects. Your thoughts and <br />suggestions are welcome on this issue which could be of tremendous benefit to <br />our entire community. <br />Since <br />Commissioner Connie Morrow <br />cc: City Manager James DiPietro <br />City Attorney Lynn Dannheisser <br />City Clerk Richard Brown-Morilla <br />
