Calvin and Diesel Need A Home Adopting a pet is a big commitment so please consider these factors before adopting a pet. Here are two possible new family members at the Humane Society of Broward County this week. Thirteen year old Calvin (ID 617666) is currently the oldest feline waiting to be adopted at the shelter. Sadly his owner passed away and now this longhaired, front declawed fellow is looking for a home to spend his golden years. Calvin will do best in a quiet environment where he can be pampered. He would love a cat tree to climb on and some catnip toys. He received a dental treatment at the shelter and is ready to be adopted. Can Calvin be part of your family? After having a home his entire life Diesel’s (ID 618047) family is moving and can’t take him along. This handsome fellow is seven years young and 91 pounds of love. He is wonderful with kids of all ages, knows basic obedience and has perfect manners. He previously lived with a smaller dog and was great with him. Can this great guy make your family complete? Items To Consider If you lease your home, check with your landlord before adopting to be sure you are allowed to have a pet and can afford all required pet deposits. Pets are sometimes returned because of lease restrictions and/or landlord’s disapproval of the pet chosen. This can be an expensive lesson since the adoption fees are nonrefundable and being returned to the shelter can be a stressful Need A Home, Page 7A

We Heard You A Message from the Mayor of Sunny Isles Beach We heard you! On August 28, 2019 at 6:00 pm there will be a Special Commission Meeting in the Sunny Isles Beach Commission Chambers to vote upon a proposed building moratorium in the Town Center District. A building moratorium automatically stops any new development project. During the moratorium, we will find an acceptable solution to move forward and address development issues in the Town Center District.

WHY DO WE NEED ASSAULT WEAPONS? I am puzzled. Rachel walked in to a class the other night, sat next to me, took out her cell phone and showed me an AK-something. “I just ordered this online,” she said with a mischievous grin. I looked her square in the eye and asked her why. She squirmed and giggled in a naughty way and she answered, “Just for fun.” Before I could get an answer to my question of how she was going to use it for fun, the class began. I know Rachel through my religious group. We study in classes together. She is a very influential real estate professional in the small city in North Florida that I now call home. Born in a repressive country, she is an example of the typical American By Marylynne Newmark -

success story by working hard and smart for many years and achieving her goals. I can’t see her as a threat. But, who knows? So, what do I do? Do I need to report this? To whom? How? And why? Do we need to become like Bund-ist Germany where children were encouraged to report their parents? Should we become paranoid over somebody we know who is buying something that can harm others? If acquiring this weapon was so easy for her to purchase online, I hate to think of how easy it is to get into the wrong hands, the hands of someone who can kill 9 people in 5 seconds, as we just witnessed these past weeks.

The Miami Herald published an article recently that provided a much clearer description of what the true problem is and how we are proceeding to fix it. The Miami Herald article is materially different from what had been reported in the Community Newspaper and letters from the RK group (Mr. Katz and son), which are inaccurate and sensationalistic. Below is a recap of the facts to date: 1. The City and its experts have been attempting to correct mistakes that were made between 2007 and 2011 regarding the Town Center District. 2. These mistakes were discovered when the Infinity Project, a newly proposed development, was submitted for approval. That development has not been approved and is currently not under consideration for approval. 3. These prior mistakes resulted in the completion of six buildings that will be deemed nonconforming if we do not amend Heard You, Page 7A

DANGEROUS MOLD & MILDEW HONOR 1st Priority Restoration Keeps it Under Control, (1-800-617-1112) There has been a lot of severe rain and local flooding this past month, and the forecast doesn’t seem to have any changes to that trend in the near future. This driving rain impacts our daily lives, we have to take our children to activities and school in it, as well as walk outside to get from point A to point B without getting soaked. These summer rainy months are always a hassle, but the long term effects that this type of rain can have on your home or condo can be devastating if you aren’t prepared, or don’t know who to call for help. In addition we also have a few more months of the 2019 hurricane season remaining, so now is the time to get your home checked for water intrusion and

Never Fool Around With Mold & Mildew When it comes to mold and mildew, we cannot take those potential hazards lightly. For people sensitive to mold, inhaling or touching mold spores can cause allergic reactions, including sneezing, runny nose, red eyes, and skin rash. People with serious mold

By David Udoff - At a time in America when division in politics, bickering and name calling raises eyebrows, the Social Citizen’s of Southeast Florida came together in the name of patriotism with a recently hosted luncheon that featured veteran guest speakers. As members sat down to lunch at Moe’s Bagel & Deli, a mainstay meeting place in Aventura, Dennis Stubbolo, president, Social Citizens, educated the group on the Honor Flight South Florida trip that sponsored seventy five veterans from WWII, Korean War, and Vietnam War who traveled to Washington D.C. “As a veteran from the 1960’s, the Honor Flight was amazing. We boarded Spirit Airlines, and two fire trucks
