Re: Camillus House: Development Agreement by and between the City of Miami and
Charity Unlimited of Florida ("Development Agreement')
Dear Mr. Arriola:
On behalf of Camillus House, Inc., we request that Camillus House, Inc. be substituted for
Charity Unlimited as the party to the above -referenced Development Agreement. Assistant City
Attorney Rafael Suarez Rivas asked that we notify you of this change and explain the reasons
behind it. Accordingly, please note that because Charity Unlimited is a real estate holding
company with limited operational capacity, it determined that the more appropriate entity to enter
into the Development Agreement is Camillus House, Inc. As the party that will carry out the
relevant obligations under the Development Agreement, Camillus House, Inc. is the proper party
to the Development Agreement.
The Development Agreement remains properly noticed to be considered by the City Commission
on June 8, 2006. Pursuant to Ch. 163.3225(2)(c), Fla. Stat., public hearing notice requirements
for development agreements are limited to the following: "The notice shall specify the location
of the land subject to the development agreement, the development uses proposed on the
property, the proposed population densities, and the proposed building intensities and height and
shall specify a place where a copy of the proposed agreement can be obtained." The statute does
not require the parties to be named in the notice; the notice, therefore, complies in all respects to
the statute's requirements. Nevertheless, it is clear from the body of the Development Agreement
and other materials that Camillus House has always been an integral part of the Development
Agreement.
Under separate cover, you will receive a resolution that authorizes Camillus House, Inc. to enter
into the Development Agreement. We thank you for your cooperation and your continued
assistance with this matter.
Sincerely,
CAMILLUS HOUSE, INC.
