A real estate developer who turned a former mansion into a private social club got the city’s permission to do so by signing a use agreement that, amazingly, limits the property’s use to a social club.
Specifically, he agreed it wouldn’t be a hotel, so club members are limited to overnight stays of “seven days at a time for three nonconsecutive weeks.” The developer also “promised not to set up permanent residence there.”
And it sure looks like his neighbors and the city intend to enforce that contract. Read story here.
Maybe one of the developer’s buddies can set him up in a nice dacha.
Photos: Airbnb (above left); not Airbnb (lower right); it all boils down to what the local zoning laws allow.
The fact the property is a historical location may bite the neighbors and city. The designation is a two edged sword in that the owner has to keep the property as is, but does come with a guarantee they cam use the property as it was historically. Which is usually to live on the property.
There are issues such s is the condition or conditions reasonable or enforceable. Why now to enforce where Trump has clearly skirted the rules for years. It is also likely there is a caretaker and/or employee dealing with reservations and check in living on the property. And how has the city enforced the whole club member stays of seven days for three non consecutive weeks, or has the city declined to do so for decades and only now is going to enforce which a judge may look at as petty, and unreasonable.
After all some folks have petty neighbors who would prevent them from living on their property. Not at all something judges are unused to. I am sure trial judges in Florida cam tell the neighbors they are being petty and unreasonable and are too late in their claims in a nice polite legal order. Giving Trump a big “W” and keeping him in the spotlight for 2024. Thank you to the Demont’s for that gift.
You overlook a little detail: He signed a contract agreeing not to live there. Also, I’m curious why you habitually misspell other people’s names in your comments. Is that a mental fetish?
It is similar to my never ever capitalizing trump’s name.
Calling Democrats, demonts or demonrat is a republican fetish, one among many 🙂
How about gopers chasing McDonalds cheeseburgers with strings tied to it right out of the White House?
Woof!
