BACKGROUND On February 10, 1998, by Resolution No. 98-125, the City and Demolition Masters established a contract for the furnishing of all labor, materials and equipment to provide demolition services. Demolition Masters was issued nine (9) purchase orders in December, 1999 to demolish nine structures on properties foreclosed by the City. After permits were issued, the contractor advised us that the square footage, as stated in the purchase orders, was incorrect. The information on the purchase order was acquired through ARPS. This database reflects net living footage. Commercial properties, such as the ones in this case, have exterior walkways, stairways, etc., that are not considered livable space and, therefore, not included in the ARPS database total. The contractor was asked to provide documentation detailing the differences in the square footage. We investigated further and through the tax card in the Microfilm Section, we were able to verify the square footage discrepancy. The Building Department has since changed their policy for verification of square footage prior to the issuance of demolition purchase orders. 00— 939 vo- 939, 0 • CITY OF MIAMI, FLORIDA INTEP:QFK1C;MEMORANDUM t.3i 00 SEP 26 PM 1 : 22 TO : Carlos A.
