Re: Support of Zoning & MUSP for Royal Atlantic Development
Dear Commissioners:
It has come to my attention that the Royal Atlantic Development Corporation is
planning a major new mixed -use (primarily residential) development at the site of
the old Miami News warehouse at the corner of NW 7th Street and 11th Avenue.
Given SBOC provides support for small business in East Little Havana I wish to
express my support for City approval of this development. This City needs to do
whatever it can to encourage new development (especially upscale residential
projects) which will help revitalize East Little Havana and expand the City's tax
base,
The new customers that the Royal Atlantic Development will provide will be a boost
for all nearby businesses in East Little Havana, I strongly urge you to support the
Royal Atlantic Development by granting its request for the change of zoning and
Major Use Special Permit (MUSP) approval.
Sincerely,
Luis Sabines, Jr.
