August 12, 1986 - Mazik receives rezoning and strikes out to develop Carlton Palms.
December 8, 1987- Merry Christmas! A year and half later, Carlton Palms shows a philanthropic side, hypothetically. Or it's been strong-armed by those political gunners in Mount Dora who only on-boarded their support of The Palms once they'd done the shakedown, hypothetically of course.
Either way, it's one of the
Big Three Political Moves -
1) Bribe, hypothetically
2) Blackmail, hypothetically
3) Philanthropic activity
from the pure in heart,
hypothetically
You be the Judge! Just do it quietly as to not stir the sleeping beasts!
You be the Judge! Just do it quietly as to not stir the sleeping beasts!
It was the best of times and the best of Mazik. He'd spent two decades hobnobbing and noshing with the political and social elite in Delaware. He'd re-established himself down the coast in Florida. He'd refined his style, learned a few tricks, come into himself and reveled in how he'd won the Florida rezoning that had allowed his project, Carlton Palm's Educational Center to come to life.
Merry Christmas, Mount Dora! We're thinking of you!
