is the condominium immediately south of The Ambassador and the most impacted of the three properties abutting Oko’s proposed redevelopment of the Ambassador/Edgewater properties. At this juncture we have not decided to support or oppose Oko’s plans but are actively engaged in good faith dialogue with Oko to determine our position which we hope will be concluded before the Town Council meeting on

Dear Mayor, Council President and Council Members,
Thank you all for your gracious service to our community.
I am a year-round resident and proud to call Palm Beach my home.
I am writing in support of the proposed Ambassador Hotel and Residence conversion to
the OKO Group Condominium. I have seen the design plans for this world class project
and believe it will greatly enhance the character of the South End.
I am familiar with the OKO Group and their portfolio of projects which are internationally
acclaimed. Having a developer of this calibre and experience create beautiful residences
on the South End is an asset to Palm Beach. the project has my full support.
Thank you for your consideration.
Best regards,
Robert Kamme

Dear Town Council,
As a longtime Palm Beach resident, I have recently been made aware of the Ambassador Hotel project and think it will be an incredible addition to the South End of Palm Beach.
Additionally, after having read today’s article that appeared in the Shiny Sheet regarding the highly undesirable condition of this structure I see all the more reason to approve this application.
I am in complete support of the application and pleased to see the progress being made in South Palm Beach.
