The country’s largest outlet mall is getting even bigger. But in a twist, its newest wing will be leased to full-price retailers rather than discounters.Broward’s Sawgrass Mills in Sunrise, which draws millions of visitors each year, announced Tuesday that it is adding 118,000 square foot of space in an open-air expansion. The new area, called Town Center, will feature 25 full-price shops, a parking deck with room for 2,000 car and four new sit-down restaurants, according to a press release from owner Simon Property Group, the country’s largest shopping mall operator.Town Center will be located in the southeast quadrant of the mall, near Brandsmart. A spokesman for Simon declined to provide additional details.When Town Center opens in 2018, it will bring Sawgrass Mills’ total square footage to about 2.3 million square feet. Aventura Mall will still be the area’s largest at 2.7 million square feet.The trend of mixing discount with full-price retail isn’t entirely new, said Marshal Cohen, chief retail analyst for consumer market research firm NPD. But at Sawgrass Mills, the pairing will be more obvious than pairings he’s seen in the past.To compete, he expects most full-price retailers will offer discounts through coupons and sales. “You’ll be surprised at how similar the pricing turns out to be,” Cohen said.Labeling a store as a discount or outlet retailer creates a consumer perception that those stores are less expensive, he said, even if the savings are minuscule.“In many cases, a lot of the stores that are in these outlet malls, they’re not all that discounted,” Cohen said. “In fact, I’ve seen some that discount a penny.”

How to Pay Yourself When Buying an Apartment Building with Investors
Jolly's bill relates to non-immigrants who are working in the US and hold an E-2 Treaty Investor Visa. The E-2 Visa requires recipients to invest in the US economy, usually by starting a business and hiring people. However, recipients are required to reapply for an E-2 Visa in some cases every two years, often returning home to apply for a new visa. It appears, unfortunately, that this bill if passed will not help if you wish to remain permanently after being on an E-1 Treaty Trader Visa. Currently to gain permanent residence based on investment you need to invest from half a million to one million US dollars and employ at least ten people. Business people on E-2 visas typically run small businesses and are unlikely to have that sort of money to invest.
Jolly's bill would make it easier for E-2 Visa holders to obtain immigrant status once they had been in the US, legally, for 10 years. It would also permit their children, who under current legislation face may face difficulty in remaining in the US when they turn 21 (unless they obtain a work related E-2 visa or student visa or some other type of visa), to be covered by their parents' visas until the age of 26.
Addressing the audience at Da Sesto Italiano Ristorante e Vino, most of who came to the US on an E-2 Visa, Jolly said: "While we address reform for illegals too, and I believe we do, we can't possibly begin to reform the immigration system that involves only those who are here without documentation without recognizing that our legal immigration system has failed, and has failed each and every one of you."
The bill would actually assist people like Da Sesto's owner, Sesto Ramadori, who is originally from the region of Marche, Italy. He came to the US 18 years ago, arriving from Canada where he holds citizenship status. He describes how he recently went through the E-2 application process again in the summer of 2014.
He said: "We went through all the paperwork and filed an application. It's not just the matter of an extension. You literally have to do all the paperwork to show that your business is viable and that you're employing people... It's a lot of money; it's a lot of uncertainty."
Andy Strickland, a St. Petersburg immigration lawyer and Mr Ramadori's attorney said: "The process is costly; you're looking at $4,000 to $5,000. Plus, if they decide to go abroad for their visa instead of extending their status here with the US Citizen and Immigration Services, if they don't do that, then they have to go abroad and get a visa, they have expenses with that as well."
Strickland says Jolly's bill is viable: "Why chase people away who came here the right way, who are doing things the right way, who are creating jobs for U.S. citizens? I think we should reward people who are doing things the right way and give them an opportunity to keep doing things the right way."
Jolly stated that there will be opposition to his bill because of the anti-immigration sentiments of some people. He also says that the bill is so common-sense that it should pass easily.
He said: "I think people in Congress will recognize the importance of addressing legal immigration at the same time we're having a national debate about illegal immigration. It's only fair that we do so and it's right that we do so."
Jolly says he expects a tougher challenge at procedural level, passing a small piece of legislation to reform part of the American immigration policy, given that the focus has been on comprehensive immigration reform (CIR). However, adding the bill as part of a larger CIR proposal is something that he is willing to consider.
Jolly said: "Whenever you have comprehensive immigration reform, it is hard to pass small provisions. This one, I hope, is a very simple one that we could move outside of the comprehensive immigration reform. Let's recognize the contribution of legal immigrants now, but it may be that this gets wrapped into comprehensive immigration reform, and I'm okay with that. We're prepared to have that conversation."
"Mr Jolly may be being overly optimistic. It has proved to be extremely difficult to pass immigration reform legislation through Congress."
