As the sun dipped low over the Hollywood golf course, a local resident passionately addressed the Planning and Development Board, sharing his vision for the future of his beloved city. With nearly three decades of experience running a business in Hollywood, he spoke with conviction about the positive changes on the horizon.

The resident highlighted the upcoming enhancements to the neighborhood, expressing optimism about the new villas and properties being developed. He emphasized the importance of these projects, not just for their aesthetic appeal but also for the traffic improvements they promise to bring. “The traffic enhancements are going to be very good,” he noted, hinting at a future where congestion might ease, making the community more accessible.

Moreover, he pointed out the potential for charity events at the country club, suggesting that these gatherings could foster a stronger sense of community. “A lot of golf courses don’t offer walking areas, but our community will,” he remarked, underscoring the unique features that set Hollywood apart.

Yet, amid the excitement for new developments, he voiced a pressing need for beautification in the area. “We need beautification really bad in our community,” he stated, calling for attention to the aesthetics that contribute to the city’s charm.

In a heartfelt conclusion, he reminded the board that the developers are not outsiders; they are part of the community. “They live in our community,” he affirmed, reinforcing his support for the project. With a firm stance, he declared, “I’m 100% in favor of this project,” leaving the board and attendees with a sense of hope for the future of Hollywood.
