The city of Sunny Isles Beach is getting ready to build a new park across the street from Ocean One and just in front of Ocean Reserve. The four-acre park is expected to cost around $14 million and won’t start construction until 2009 according to city officials. The city is still looking for grants to fund the construction costs, and until the money is in place the lot is being used as a dumping ground for excavated dirt. Needless to say this does not make the local residents very happy to have to look at an eyesore like that. The plans call for a children’s playground, walking trail and a parking garage. It is nice to see that Sunny Isles is building parks and upgrading infrastructure, but it seems like the city should be moving faster than this. There should be plenty of money with all of the new property tax revenue that will continue to grow at an enormous rate over the next few years.
