Dear Cesar:
In keeping with my recent meeting in your office with you and Liz Sierra
Mas, regarding select City of Miami projects which you requested that I
take responsibility for, I am submitting the following update.
A. The ATLANTIC FLEET Commander has confirmed that the Aircraft
Carrier SARATOGA (CV-60) will be in Miami in April, 1987. A
special high level welcoming will be essential for the national
e0%, and local dignitaries who will be invited. Additional funds will
be necessary from the City of Miami.
B. I have moved forward in our target plans of securing the Naval
Reserve Center in Coconut Grove as a working center for the
arts, and public park for the city. It is my understanding
that the Coast Guard is attempting to relocate in the facility.
We will probably have to go to the Whitehouse on this project,
and I have begun to lay the groundwork.
C. Progress is being made in our attempt to home port a Naval Reserve
Destroyer or Frigate in Miami. Nineteen (19) such ships were
place in Seaport cities in 1986.
The Aircraft Carrier, during its visit to Miami should contribute in excess
of two and a half million dollars ($2.5M) in reserve to our city, and the
Naval Reserve Vessel, once it has its home port in Miami, should contribute
many millions annually.
I will address these three items at the City Commission in January, and
'I would appreciate you placing them on the agenda.
I look forward to receiving the ten (10) months contract that we agreed to.
Sinearely,
STUART SORG
