Dear Ms. --fates:
-As pear our telephone conversation of this vat* I am hereby
requesting that we be placed on the agenda for public hearing of
the Clay of xiami set for March 11, 1993, if possible, or if not
that we be placed on the agenda for the following meeting which is
scheduled for April 6, 1993.
*a are requesting to be placed on the agenda tot the
foltowLng reason. In the 16th year of CDBO funding out
organization was granted 0300,000 to purchase a.vacant lot for the
Construction of a cooperative apartment complex. Pursuant to that
contract construction on the lot was to commence by April 10, 1993,
or the land would revert. back to the City of Miami. Duce to a
current moratorium on building in areas of Dade County commencing
aonat:<uctLan Is Impossible. so we are asking for an extension
of the time of commencement so that title to the land will not
_prVert back to the City of Miami. Xuch reversion of title would
cause a gtamat-baraship as permits have already been requested and
prelisU ary architectural plans completed.
-if you have any other question, please do not hesitate to
call.
