Alexander Ives, who serves as member of the town’s Architectural Commission, argued that Trump's use of the helipad at his luxury resort is an abuse of a special waiver that the town granted for Trump to use specifically for carrying out his presidential duties.

"This is not an issue of politics and has nothing to do with whether one does or does not agree with President Trump’s policies. This is an issue of the rule of law and no one — not even the president of the United States and not even in Palm Beach — should or can be above it," Ives wrote Saturday in the Palm Beach Daily News.

The Town Council voted unanimously in early January to allow then-President-elect Trump to use helipads at Mar-a-Lago for the "for business related to the presidency only.” The Florida town largely prohibits the use of helicopters with the exception of emergency helicopter landing and take-offs, he noted.

Ives said that a "private business helicopter with the corporate Trump logo" landed at the Mar-a-Lago helipad twice this year -- once in April and then on December 22 ahead of "President Trump’s arrival in the area via Air Force One."

The helicopter is co-owned by companies that are run by the president’s eldest sons, Eric and Donald Trump Jr. Don John Trump'Tiger King' star Joe Exotic requests pardon from Trump: 'Be my hero please' Zaid Jilani discusses Trump's move to cancel racial sensitivity training at federal agencies Trump International Hotel in Vancouver closes permanently MORE, who serve as executives at DT Connect II and DT Connect II Member Corp, The Palm Beach Post reported Sunday, citing state corporate records.
