Chabad advertises as "The Chabad of Key Biscayne and South Brickell"
Key Biscayne's countdown to madness (Now showing!)
(Key Biscayne Chabad advertises to "serve Jewish Community of Brickell")
Written by:  Ponce DeRaton March 14, 2005
Recycling anti-Semitic ramblings is so last century but it has everything to do with the idea of if you
are going to skate, "Skate Postal".   For everyone out of the loop, if you go postal, you go out of your mind,
go crazy, go nuts, over the top.  Enter the countdown to madness....
March 15 is tomorrow night.
Village Council....Skate Postal!
That means there will be a 2nd read of Rabbi Caroline's proposal to allow his
Jewish Education Center to be located in a residential neighborhood, as in, on the corner of Harbor Drive and
Fernwood Road. This is the equivalent of 'zoning postal' if you will.
This residential (RESIDENTIAL) address is a very busy intersection and it does not need more traffic.  Worse than that, Key Biscayne
does not need to bend and change its rules and zoning code for every idea that comes over the causeway.  This Chabad of Key Biscayne
advertises on its website that it is The "Chabad of Key Biscayne and South Brickell"...This does NOT sound like it is going to stay small!!!

Commercial Property on a Key Biscayne Building - Home of our Post Office and our crack team of zoning enforcement experts.
Imagine the zoning required to allow this sign.  Now think Chabad.  Now think Homeland Security.  Chilling isn't it?

One must have just fallen off of the cabbage wagon to believe that if this institution of advanced applied political science,
(referring to our council) allows the zoning to be changed on Harbor to allow this Chabad, that property values are not
going to fall through the floor.   Here is the reasoning for everyone reading this in Palm Beach County (butterfly ballot).
IF our zoning code for residential (our most sacred address....HOME) can be tossed to accommodate an institution,
what is next?  A Go Cart Track?  A Santeria church offering live sacrifices?  Anyone still want to live next door?

Rabbi's obvious and potentially Fatal mistake..that is if we have a Council who will protect our laws.

Rabbi just took an advertisement out in the 2005 Lions Club Key Biscayne Phone Directory.
"Serving the Jewish Community of Key Biscayne and Brickell"
The quotes are there for a reason because that is verbatim.  He is advertising as a service to those who live on
Brickell when there is a massive temple right there off the Key, and has paraded one friend of Abraham after
the next up there to say that they need a place to worship on the island.  At the same time, he is asking people
to drive onto the island to worship.  Wait...It gets better.  Here is a list of the services that he is advertising.
(All according to his advertisement)
Adult Education
Jewish Women's Circle
Jewish Learning Institute
Lecture Series
Family Holiday Programs
Hebrew School
Torah Kids in Action
Shabbat Services
Hospital Visitation
You have got to love this guy's nerve.  He and all of his toadies on the council are assuring all freaked out Key Biscayne
residents that there will be no traffic problem, no precedent set, and it is a small little congregation of 25 people or so.
Yeah, maybe now it is, but with a budget that is affording the legal expertise of Greenberg Taurig, and a nice half page
(black and white is a better deal doncha know) ad in the phone book telling the people of Brickell that they have a choice
now.....who knows what the attendance will be.  The council is considering an imaginary piece of string and its potential length.
There are hundreds of Key Biscayne residents just furious over this councils decision.  Here is a blog address. Click here.
This is a disaster that it has made it to the second read.
If it is not killed in the second read, this Key is going to be a free for all with every council being knowing that they did
NOTHING to protect our way of life out here.
Skate Postal.
Hey zoning....how about crawling out of your Ivory Tower and getting some compliance so that our Federal friends
can have a decent looking store front.  My gosh.  What do those people do all day anywise beside design regulation brochures?
Council...... Skate Postal. Vote No.
Alan Fein said that you could and it would be no problem.  He was talking of course about if others followed suit and tried to
get a variance and cited this as a precedent.  Just say NO now.  In the meantime, do something about our post office sign.


Speaking of  trash....What ever happened to our dumpster?
Our freedom of dumping has been removed without a whisper.  Now  we can't clean our yards
whenever we want and remove the trash immediately.  Further proof that the Village could not manage
a simple community dump.  They don't like it...It disappears.  Take note. View the historical footage here.
