I understand the CRA was previously working with Mr. Margulies, however, for the purpose of expediting this project so the community does not lose this valuable contribution, the City administration is moving forward with negotiating a lease agreement with Mr. Margulies. As you know, the proposed location of the building includes one lot presently owned by the CRA that was originally conveyed to the CRA by the City in error since it was part of a park. To correct this error, Southeast Overtown Park West Community Redevelopment previously executed a Special Warranty Deed on October 16, 1997, transferring the above referenced lot back to the City. This deed was never recorded since we did not have a resohition from the CRA providing the necessaryauthority for this transfer. It is requested at this time that the lot be reconveyed back to the City so we may move forward with the donation from Mr. Margulies that will benefit the CRA, the City and the community at large. Please provide, a ,certified copy of the resolution that authorized the execution of the attached deed so we may accept same and record the deed. In the event no resolution exists, we request that the CRA Board authorize your execution of a new Special Warranty Deed reeonveying this property to the City. Your prompt attention to this matter will be greatlyappreciated. If you have any questions regarding this issue, please feel free to call Ms. Laura Billberry in the Office of Asset Management at (305) 416-1452.
