<br />Summary Minutes: Regular City Commission Meeting March 20, 2008 <br /> <br />City of Sunny Isles Beach, Florida <br /> <br />going up, it is pretty hard to get offthe ground today, and unfortunately, if the prices go down <br />30% they have to start working their way up, so it is a while until you gain the confidence of <br />people to buy pre-construction again, and you cannot get off the ground if you don't have a <br />deposit. He said that study was done when the market of developed properties will stabilize, <br />it is different then when you are trying to build something from the ground up because there <br />has to be a lot of optimism for people to say okay, here is 20% of my deposit, and I will wait <br />for three years, there has to be a lot of momentum. <br /> <br />Mayor Edelcup said that we are going to start with a position and from that it will evolve and <br />we will see that we are always trying to do the right thing, and so he recommends that we <br />move forward with this today, as it gives the developers and the City Commission an <br />opportunity to look over what we have passed. He said that certainly we would be receptive <br />to any amendments that the two of you would maybe agree to be presented to the Commission <br />and we move forward, at least we get the ball rolling, we need to start someplace. <br /> <br />Commissioner Scholl moved and Vice Mayor Thaler seconded a motion to adopt the <br />ordinance.
