Open Government Law Subcommittee Growth Management (Select) It has come to my attention that the City of Miami has been asked to partially fund a $16,800 project by Harvard University, concerning the state legislators elected from Dade County. ► Please be advised that, as a Representative from Dade County, I do not support such a request and I urge you to disapprove it. It is surely a waste of money, time and effort in an era when citizens are rightfully demanding increased fiscal responsibility on the part of government. There are many needs more pressing than this superficial, self-serving expenditure of funds. In addition, I do not recall this item ever having been voted upon by the Dade Delegation as a whole. Any implication that this request has been made on behalf o the Dade Delegation is completely unwarranted. This request is symptomatic of the cavalier and autocraQc fashion in which some Dade Delegation "leaders" condfrz't : themselves. Their disregard for democratic principles a�ad _ representative procedures is undoubtedly a significant.-:L- cause for dissatisfaction among Dade legislators. T ! So-called "leaders" who seek to determine causes Delegation disunity need look no further than their nan autocratic behavior. cc: Dade Delegation DL:gk Sincerely, Dext �.-Lehti=_-Z S .
