Dear Mr. Gary:
The Downtown Miami Business Association is organizing its
third annual Downtown Summer Festival on Sunday, August 16, 1981.
This multi ethnic event takes place on Fiagler Street from
Miami Avenue to Biscayne Blvd. from noon to 8:00 p.m.
Music, performances and foods representative of our entire
community will be the makeup of this street event.
I would like to request permission from the City to close the
necessary streets as agreed upon with the City of Miami
Police Department. Also the utilization of the on -duty police
that day, in kind,along with the extra officers required to
maintain security which the Downtown Miami Business Association
will pay for.
For your information, the Downtown Summer Festival is totally
funded by the business interests downtown. Our $25,000 budget
is covered by contributions from our members. We receive no
monies from the County, State or any other source.
Please include this request in the next possible City Com-
mission agenda.
Sincerely,
Emilio Calleja
Executive Director
