Re: Interlocal Cooperation Agreement
Dear Mr. Chairman:
ROBERT J. FRMMM
305-789.7791
The purpose of this letter is to advise the Community
Redevelopment Agency (the 11CRA11) for the Omni Redevelopment
District as to the status of the proposed Interlocal Cooperation
Agreement between Dade County (the "County"), The City of Miami
(the "City") , and the CRA. It is our understanding that the County
Manager's office has requested the CRA to execute the Interlocal
Cooperation Agreement. I received a copy of the latest version of
the Agreement from the City Manager's Office on June 13.
The Board of Directors of the CRA (the "Board") discussed
the proposed Interlocal Cooperation Agreement at a meeting on March
18, 1996. The proposed Agreement presented at such meeting was
approved by the Board subject to certain changes being made in the
language of the proposed Agreement. I have received a copy of
minutes of the March 18 Board meeting. I compared the Agreement
received last week with the draft presented at the meeting to
determine whether the changes required by the Board (and approved
by motion during the March 18 meeting), as ,reflected in the
minutes, were properly drafted by the County Attorney. Based upon
such review, it is our opinion that the Agreement now accurately
reflects the Board's required changes, as approved by the Board at
the meeting on March 18. I am ready to execute this Agreement as
counsel to the CRA as approval of its form and legal sufficiency.
