Dear Mr. Odio:
On January 14, 1985, the City of Miami entered into a
unified development contractual agreement with The
Rouse Company to develop a specialty center on
Bayfront Park, which is known today as Bayside
Marketplace. Article V of The Minority Participation
_ Componont of tail co�ztractual _agrn_ement_....(.entit1.ed
"Foundation") required The Rouse Company to establish
and fund a Foundation which is known as Miami Bayside
Foundation, Inc. (The Foundation).
The purpose of the Foundation was to create and
administer a loan guaranty program for venture capital
loans to Minority Business Enterprises, provide
technical assistance to local community development
corporations engaged in economic development, and
create a vocational/educational scholarship fund for
minorities. Pursuant to the agreement The Foundation
was to be governed by a Board of Trustees comprised of
15 members with one-third (5) of the directors
appointed by the City of Miami, one-third (5)
appointed by The Rouse Company and one-third (5) of
the directors representing community organizations and
elected by the balance of the board.
Miami Bayside Foundation, Inc. has been in existence
since 1985 and is a contractual, requirement of The
Rouse Company's contract. We have discovered that the
City adopted an ordinance abolishing several of its
boards, including the Miami Bayside Foundation Board.
It is requested that the City rescind the decision
to abolish the Miami Bayside Foundation Board.
Thank you for your assistance in this matter.
feel free to call if you have any questions.
