ENCLOSURES: List of Members, Resolution
The Community Relations Board was created to (1) To serve in an advisory capacity to the City
Commission; (2) to foster mutual understanding, tolerance, and respect among all economic, social,
religious and ethnic groups in the City of Miami; (3) to make studies in the field of human relations; (4) to
attempt to act as conciliator in controversies involving community relations; (5) to cooperate in the
development of educational programs dedicated to the improvement of community relations with, and to
enlist the support of, civic leaders, civic, religious, veterans, labor, industrial, commercial and
eleemosynary groups; and private agencies engaged in the inculcation of ideals of tolerance, cultural
respect and understanding; (6) to prepare studies, and have studies made, in the field of community
relations, and to prepare and disseminate reports of such studies; (7) to recommend to the Mayor,
Commissioners, and the City Manager such ordinances to carry out the purposes of the provisions set forth
herein; (8) to submit an annual report to the Mayor, Commissioners, and the City Manager; and (9) to make
recommendations regarding grants and donations on behalf of the City from foundations and others for the
purpose of carrying out the above listed functions, subject to approval by the City Commission.
Eleven appointments are needed at this time. During the Commission meeting of December 14,
2000, Commissioner Winton nominated Linda Romero, Rev. Willy Leonard, Torris Cooper and
Anthony Robbins as members. However, at that time, board vacancies were filled through a
nomination process by the current members of said board. At the meeting of January 11, 2001, the
Commission passed and adopted Ordinance 12016, which now allows the Commission to appoint
vacancies to the board directly.
• Commissioner Winton has two nominations:
1. One for seat currently held by Alix Desulme, whose term expired on January 31, 2001 and
who does not comply with the residency requirement (board members shall be residents of
the City of Miami). The Commission may, by four-fifths vote, waive said residency
requirement.
2. One for seat currently held by Pat Tornillo, Jr. who had been nominated by former
Commissioner Plummer and whose term expired January 31, 2000.
• Commissioner Regalado has one nomination for seat currently held by Jacinto Acebal,
whose term expired on January 31, 2001, and who wrote a letter (copy attached) indicating that
he does not wish to be reappointed.
• Commissioner Sanchez has two nominations:
1. One for vacancy created because Charles McEwan resigned.
2. One for vacancy created because Sandra Frankel resigned.
®1- 136
• Commissioner Teele has two nominations:
1. One for seat currently held by Sandra Francis, who has exceeded the number of absences
allowed by the Code.
2. One for seat currently held by Vernon Clark, who has exceeded the number of absences
allowed by the Code.
• Vice Chairman Gort has two nominations:
1. One for seat currently held by Tony Rodriguez, whose term expired on January 31, 2001.
Mr. Rodriguez verbally indicated that he does not wish to serve as a member and has
exceeded the number of absences allowed by the Code.
2. One for seat currently held by Tom Gabriel who has exceeded the number of absences
allowed by the Code.
• Mayor Carollo has two appointments:
1. One for seat currently held by Bishop Victor T. Curry, who has exceeded the number of
absences allowed by the Code.
2. One for Gus Garcia, whose term expired on January 31, 2001.
For your information, attached please find a copy of the current membership of said board. By
copy of this memorandum, we are requesting that the Agenda Office place this issue on the
February 8, 2001 Commission meeting.

Commissioner Tomas Regalado:
This is to inform you that my appointment with the City of Miami Community
Relations Board expires this month. It has been a pleasure and honor to serve in
the Board.
Due to the job requirements it is very difficult for me to keep up with both
responsibilities that of my job and the City Board, so please I respectfully ask not
to be reappointed for another term.
Working with the other members of the Board has been a privilege and I
congratulate all of them for their fine efforts.
Again, I regret to inform you that I can not serve another term.
Sincerely,
Jacinto Acebal

Dear Joe:
P.01i0:
Please be advised of my resignation effective today as
chairman and member of the Community Relations Hoard. I am
deeply appreciative to you for having enough trust and belief in
me to appoint me to this board in which, I truly believe, with
it's mission, goals and objectives.
We have received little to no support in carrying out our
mission and therefore, I cannot continue to waste my time and
efforts.
Thanks again and please do not hesitate to call on me for
anything you may require of me now or in the future.
