Shores on the North;and 7th Avenue on the West. It is our concern that as Miami is spotlighted all over the world as a crime area that we should change patterns cf ne- glect in areas whereby people make a living from renting stores, apartments and warehouses. As sister cities to Miami have much stronger codes to enforce painting and signage.we feel we can address urban blight and a perception of crime and grime that is so disturbing at this time. We would appreciate your telling us when this issue can be addressed at the Commission level and to notify other affected organizations who may have valuable input toward this goal. Certainly an Architects Design Review Board could be established to help this section of Miami benefit from a better image. Also other areas of Miami, upon noting the success of this will likely follow this example.. 94— 41.E Zzi(4-33Ve,rY sincerely, 94OAIru ►Y►o4 Sherna Brody- Boar
