Here are key takeaways:<\/p>\n

Nearly two dozen residents and supporters rallied Wednesday outside the office of Miami-Dade County Commissioner Raquel Regalado as they demanded help from their District 7 commissioner. Regalado told the Miami Herald the situation is a city of Miami issue, not a county one.The park\u2019s owner, 1989 Sunny Court LLC \u2014 owned by California-based Marquis Property Company \u2014 plans to redevelop the site and has offered tiered buyouts: $10,000 for leaving by May 31, $5,000 by July 15 and $2,500 by the end of August, plus state compensation of $1,375 to $6,000.Holdout residents say the offers fall short. Their trailers are costly to move and, in many instances, are their biggest personal assets. Residents are asking for three years to find new housing and for $60,000.The Silver Court Homeowners Association is challenging the eviction in court. \u201cWe believe the park is being shut down in a way that sidesteps the Florida Mobile Home Act\u2019s protections for homeowners,\u201d said Carrie Feit, a lawyer representing the homeownersAttorney Jorge Piedra, who represents the property owner, rejected those claims, saying the closure \u201cis being carried out with full regard to the law.\u201d<\/p>\n
