Summary Minutes:Regular City Commission Meeting November 15,2012 City of Sunny Isles Beach,Florida <br /> that the word security was changed to concierge in order to avoid payment of State taxes. <br /> There have been a lot of submissions,we have made a lot of pictures to this body about these <br /> conditions. She is asking the Commission not to ignore this. It is the responsibility of this <br /> body to protect the citizens of the City. <br /> Ms.Koenig said under the Freedom of Information Act she is going to ask for two things: 1) <br /> records and documentation of all violations and fines issued by the City to Winston Towers <br /> 300 from 2008 to the present; and 2) all documentation pertaining to the eminent domain <br /> mitigation plan for the submerged land rights adjacent to the inlet of Winston Towers 300. <br /> This is a$4 Million expenditure which she thinks can be put to better use in the City besides <br /> a bridge that jeopardizes the safety next to an unsafe building that has issues that have been <br /> emanating for 40 years. The other thing she is going to include is that she would like all <br /> documentation and correspondence pertaining to the Winston Towers 300 40-year <br /> inspection. We have a very serious set of unique problems in Winston Towers 300 that have <br /> to end now. Things have to change here for the safety and equity of their property. <br /> Commissioner Gatto said that Ms. Koenig is not being ignored, there was a meeting <br /> internally that they had discussed based upon her notarized statement and she believes there <br /> will be a letter sent to her in response to some of her issues. Ms.Koenig said she appreciates <br /> that but she hopes it is a letter of action,a letter of telling her what this City is going to do to <br /> protect the safety of the people in Winston Towers 300. Mayor Edelcup said before that <br /> letter goes out the Commission needs to see it and discuss it so that they are not blindsided <br /> by anything. Commissioner Aelion said also to check what the City's responsibilities are in <br /> relation to the issues that were raised tonight. City Attorney Ottinot said he would do that <br /> and in addition, he will be mitigating any cost issue. The City Clerk's Office will call her <br /> and we will get some of the documents that you requested and let you review it and if you <br /> want copies let them know which copies you want. Mayor Edelcup said since Ms. Koenig <br /> has raised the issue,it would only be fair that the Commission be apprised of any outstanding <br /> violations that exist on the 300 Building, and what the status is of taking care of those <br /> violations and/or what steps we are taking to make sure we get a proper conclusion. <br /> 14.
