It's Time for School Again

I

t is hard to believe that the summer is already ending.

It’s time to review the school supplies list, pick out that lucky lunch box, and finish the summer reading assignments.

August 16th is the first day of school for most kids in the area.

Preparing for school has certainly gotten more complex over the past 20 years. We have gone from wrapping textbooks in brown paper bags to downloading software onto smartphones, iPads, and Chromebooks.

After-school programs have exploded from sports and music to a variety of different opportunities from computer classes to dual language programs. Parents have more choices as well. Neighborhood schools, charter schools, home school and virtual school are options now in addition to traditional private and public schools.

If your family is like ours, you might not have everything planned just yet. Have no fear, Our City is here to help! Check out our Back to School Guide in this issue. It contains useful information on the area’s best preschools, private schools, and educational programs in addition to almost every afterschool activity you can think of, from arts to the YMCA. The material is curated to provide a useful guide to help you get ready for the new school year.

Please enjoy these last few weeks of summer. School will start before you know it.

Sincerely,

Terry & Christy Jaillet OUR CITY MEDIA PUBLISHERS

30 Years of Food, Fun & Friends!

By Michael Mayo

I

t began with a young man’s itch, a desire to strike out on his own and make a mark in his chosen field. And so Patrick Utter swapped the Giorgio Armani tuxedos he once donned as maître d’ at one of Hollywood’s finest restaurants and the rigid hierarchy of the fine-dining kitchens where he cut his culinary teeth for something that felt more comfortable, more true to himself.

A place where he could still provide quality food and service without any pretense, a neighborhood place where the burgers and fries were hot, the beers cold and the kitchen open until the wee hours.

A place where a father and son could stop off for dinner after a sunset game of hoops at T-Y Park, where someone could pick up a comforting takeout meal for a recuperating relative at nearby

16 / Our City Hollywood / August 2022 / OurCityMedia.com

Memorial Hospital, a place where cops, firefighters, line cooks and servers could come for wings and camaraderie at 2 a.m., after their late shifts ended.

And thus, in August 1992, Shenanigans was born.

Utter, hardscrabble product of Hollywood and an Irish-Italian family with five boys, liked the word – Irish slang for silly and mischievous behavior – because it reminded him of his mom and dad’s frequent admonishments to “quit your shenanigans.”

Thirty years later, he hasn’t stopped yet.

In an industry where most establishments go belly up in a few years, Shenanigans has endured. The original Shenanigans Sports Pub, at 3303 Sheridan Street, remains as comforting as ever. A second location, Shenanigans East Side – with a BBQ smoker, pizza oven and drive-thru window – opened in 2008 in Dania Beach, at 1300 S. Federal Highway.

There’s no secret to the success: Quality, loyalty, service and value. “Friends don’t let friends eat frozen fish,” a sign on the wall says. Mahi and other fish specials often come straight off local fishing boats. Burgers are made from Angus beef. The award-winning wings (try the black-n-grilled or Shaq-n-grilled) are plump and free of antibiotics and added hormones. Nearly everything is made in house. Both locations feature daily food and drink specials and seasonal promotions.

But beyond the products are the people. “It takes a great team to do what we’ve done,” Utter says, crediting his wife Christine, his “CEO and world’s best wing man” Jeremy (who has been with him from the start) and longtime managers and staff. More than

Come Celebrate at the

Shenanigans’

30th Anniversary Party!

ALL DAY Saturday, Aug 20th a dozen have been on board more than a decade: GMs Dan and Les; managers Vicki and Liz; chefs Jose and Johnson; pit masters TJ and Rev; “night owl” line cook Andre; master mixologist Phil, along with “Boss” Daniel, “Hot-lanta” (Atlanta), Pierrot, Adrian, and “my man Charlie.”

Most important are his guests. Utter has been a pillar to community groups and fundraising efforts, always quick to lend a helping hand to those in need. He anguished before raising prices earlier this year in the face of soaring food and other costs, balancing the struggles of his customers with the need to pay his staff fairly.

His loyal guests keep showing up. Shenanigans caters to young and old, blue-collar and white-collar, families stopping in for a quick bite or friends staying all day to watch NFL and college football games. The big-screen TVs are sharp and plentiful, the jukeboxes loud and ready to drown out the latest Dolphins’ loss, the bartenders willing to lend an ear over the latest heartbreak.

The days of TV’s “Cheers” are long gone, but Hollywood is fortunate to have something better: A real-life bar where everyone wants to know your name.

Here’s to you, Shenanigans. Slainte and 30 more!

Shenanigans will celebrate its 30th anniversary at both locations on Saturday, August 20 with food and drink specials.

Those who order Stella Artois will receive complimentary keepsake etched beer glasses (while supplies last). Those who show up in Miami Dolphins jerseys by 7 p.m. kickoff of that night’s preseason game against the Las Vegas Raiders can toast 30 years of Shenanigans with either a free Jameson Orange Burst cocktail or a complimentary pint of specialty Dolphins craft beer made by Vera Sur Brewing of Miami.

EARLY VOTING IS OPEN AUG 13 - AUG 21

he 2022 Florida Primary Election will be held on August 23, 2022. This will be the first election since districts were changed as a result of the redistricting process. Redistricting takes place every ten years following the United States census.

Political districts for state and federal offices are determined by the Florida Legislature based on a number of factors including population and the political objectives of those in power.

Closed Primary

Visit the Broward County Supervisor of Elections website to locate your voting place, confirm your voter registration status, and view your sample ballot. Florida is a “closed primary” state. In partisan office contests in a primary election, a voter may only vote for the candidates of the party in which he or she is registered. That’s

why different ballot styles exist in a primary election. The voter’s ballot style is tied to his or her party affiliation. Voters registered with no party affiliation (NPA) are not eligible to vote for partisan candidates in a primary election.

Early Voting

Early voting is a great way to cast your ballot ahead of time and works exactly the same way as voting on election day. Except, any Broward voter can vote at any early voting location. Early voting for the August primary election is from August 13 through August 21, 2022. Early voting is open from 10:00 am - 7:00 pm.

Early Voting Locations Near Hollywood:

Hollywood Hosts Annual

Star-Spangled Spectacular Celebration

H

ollywood is home to one of South Florida’s most spectacular Independence Day celebrations every year. Patriotic pride filled the air as thousands of spectators, decked out in red, white and blue, lined the shores of Hollywood beach to watch this year’s Independence Day fireworks show.

Traffic backed up early on Hollywood Boulevard, but years of experience by Hollywood PD made the entire event seem accessible and easy to get home from. Thousands were gathered along Hollywood’s famous Broadwalk in anticipation of the show and enjoyed live music all night long. The entertainment kicked off at the Hollywood Beach Theater on Johnson Street at 5:00 pm and concluded with the massive fireworks display shortly after 9:00 pm.

The event was a boon to beach-side businesses and restaurants during the slower summer season. Residents need not wait for a special occasion to enjoy live music on Hollywood Beach. There are free concerts at the Hollywood Bandshell on an almost daily basis.

Watch Out for These Potential Problems

WITH LIFE ESTATES

L

By Yoni Markhoff

ife estates can be an excellent tool for Medicaid planning, probate avoidance and tax advantages, but there are potential problems. Being fully aware of potential pitfalls is the function of a good attorney.

In a life estate two or more people each have an ownership interest in a home, but for different periods of time. The person holding the life estate, usually the person who previously owned the property prior to executing the Life Estate, possesses the property during his or her life. The other owner, or the remainderman, has a current ownership interest but cannot take possession until the death of the life estate holder. Recall that ownership and possession are two different concepts. Imagine a rental home where the landlord owns the home, but the tenant has possession of the home for a defined period of time.

Life estates are excellent planning techniques for many circumstances.

They permit parents to pass ownership in their homes to their children while retaining absolute possession of the property during their lives.

By executing a life estate deed, the home avoids probate at the parents’ deaths, is protected from a Medicaid lien, and receives a step-up in tax basis. A step up basis means that the remainderman would inherit the home at the then current market value, effectively canceling any potential capital gains tax.

PROVIDING PEACE OF MIND BY PRESERVING GENERATIONAL WEALTH

However, there are potential issues that may arise with life estates and it’s important to fully understand the following risks:

▸ ▸ ▸ ▸

▸

As a life tenant, you may not easily sell or mortgage the home with a life estate interest. The remaindermen must all agree if you decide to sell or borrow against the property.

If the home is sold, the remaindermen are entitled to a share of the proceeds equal to what their interest is determined to be at that time. There is a table that attorneys use to determine the value of the interest.

It is not as easy to remove or change a name once it is on a deed to real estate as it is to change the beneficiary on a life insurance policy or bank account.

Once a remainderman is named on the deed to your house, he or she has an interest in the home and his or her legal problems could become yours.

For example, if your child, who is a remainderman, is sued or owes taxes, a lien could be filed against your home. Your child’s interest in the home is not protected if he or she files for bankruptcy. If your child gets a divorce, his or her spouse could claim all or part of your child’s interest in your home. Should your child die before you do, the child’s estate would have to go through probate unless at least one other remainderman was listed as a joint tenant. However, while these claims may be made against the home, no one can kick you out of it during your life.

Giving away an interest in property could disqualify you from receiving assistance from Medicaid should you require long-term care within five years of the transfer. This is because you “gifted” a portion of your home to someone other than your spouse, without obtaining fair market value.

In addition, if you and the remaindermen were to sell the property while you were in a nursing home, Florida could have a claim against your share of the proceeds for payments it has made on your behalf, but the share of the proceeds allocated to your children would be protected.

As with most planning tools, a life estate can be very useful with valuable benefits, but it is not for everyone. In some cases, the potential problems outweigh the benefits. As the law in this area is complex, it’s important to talk to a lawyer who knows about this in-depth.
