Happy New Year
Vice Mayor Lewis J. Thaler

Both Madi and I want to wish you all a very happy, healthy and prosperous new year. We have many things to look forward to next year – first and foremost is our move from our present location to our brand new City Hall on January 21st. Housed in the building will be a post office, which will be up and running when we move in and a Miami-Dade library expected to be opened in April. A formal dedication of City Hall will take place at 2:00 PM on February 25th. More information will be forthcoming.

Were you at Samson Park for the lighting of our festival lights on December 9th? About 150 people attended and saw Santa arrive and then they danced to great music. In early December, thanks to our Commissioner Roslyn Brezin, residents of Sunny Isles Beach were able to get their flu shots in the convenience of the Arlen House. No long lines, plenty of seats, and even refreshments. Great job Roz!!!

Our long awaited lifeguard stand at 192nd Street is just about completed as are the ones at 174th and 180th Streets. The brick walkways designating crossings have been completed and look good. For safety, please remember to cross at these crossings.

Our Sunny Isles Community Shuttle bus now goes to Aventura Mall seven days a week as well as all over town and it is free. A schedule is available for your convenience at City Hall. Call if you would like any additional information.

Our City Hall number, 305.947.0606 will remain the same when we move. So let us hear from you if you have any questions or comments. Again, I wish you all a happy and healthy new year.
