"I’m honestly more concerned with the best decisions being made than whether I am elected. I ran out of a concern that, unless I was elected, the best decisions may have been in jeopardy—otherwise I wouldn’t have run."

"I think we've got to focus on the future. We've got to focus on on trying to find consensus around the things that we want to see improved. And we've got to roll up our sleeves and get those things in process. I think that there are a lot of things we can disagree about. There are a lot of philosophies that we can that we can bat back and forth, but that what we really owe our community is positive focus on the things that we can do that need to be improved."

"My commitment to Key Biscayne didn’t start a few months ago or in response to a single issue. It’s been a consistent part of my time in the community since the day I arrived. I am prepared to be a fierce and effective advocate for the citizens of Key Biscayne. If we elevate the wrong people to the council it’s going to create a situation that we will all regret."

"It’s a Rorschach test of sorts, said Matt Bramson, a village council candidate and consultant who supports the bond.

And just like Rorschach’s inkblot tests, 'the bond is more about the beholder than the issue itself,' he said."

"Communities that have participated in similar visioning plans use the document to align resources and meet specific goals. With a plan, 'you have a yardstick to make sure you’re meeting those goals. Those who lack a plan are spending more and wasting more money,’' said Matt Bramson, Vision Board vice chairperson, during the virtual meeting."

"Two condominium officials gave an idea of just how much they paid for debris removal. Martin Pinilla from The Towers of Key Biscayne estimated costs of $80,000, and Matt Bramson said Key Colony paid $100,000-$150,000 and Key Colony IV paid $75,000-$100,000.

Bramson noted that comes on top of the fact that condo residents’ taxes support stormwater system improvements and could help pay for buried utilities – even though condominiums paid for and maintain their own private systems on both counts.

While Council member McCormick noted there is a counter argument – some might say an expensive beach restoration being considered by the Council more heavily benefits condo owners – Bramson remarked, 'When there’s an opportunity to see costs shared more fairly given our tax contribution, we would appreciate that.'"
