Foundation. 1 2"T It is my understanding that the commitment from the foundation is to provide a physical structure which will include, but not be limited to, a basketball court, classroom facilities, and related services. In order to facilitate this very generous overture by the Heat Foundation, it was requested that the City of Miami provide the physical site (land) at no cost to the Heat Foundation to construct a community athletic complex. The City is very anxious to pursue the conclusion of this development and is hereby offering the use of Gibson Park f o r this purpose. A more specific site designation can be made upon receipt of your architect's technical drawings and renderings of the facilities land needs. It is also important that you advise the City of the programmatic activities that are expected to be managed and/or carried out by the foundation. In your contact with Herb Bailey, Assistant City Manager, a lot of discussion has been held concerning the Miami Heat Community Foundation adopting the entire Gibson Park. Provided that we can come to a satisfactory arrangement as to the 1) park management 2) park maintenance, and 3) management and design of non- structural recreation facilities (track, football field, swimming pool, etc.) , I would not be opposed to recommend to the City Commission that we would consider developing a specific Adopt -A - Park program that would be tailored to the Miami Heat Community Foundation's commitment. Under this scenario, the prime concern would be that the full integrity of the park as a viable, public and accessible facility be maintained. i Page 2 Thanking you for your generous community spirit and contribution, I hope that this commitment (Gibson Park) will help us to immediately being fulfilling our respective goals as they relate to the Overtown community.
