Dear Mr. Arriola:
Given that the Bus Shelter.contract between the City of Miami and ClearChannel expired
January 26, 2004, we believe that this is the ideal time for Miami to commence
integration of Street Furniture of exceptional quality.
The quantity of outdoor advertising elements that exist at this moment — billboards,
banners on bridges, shelters, benches, building wraps, banners on light poles, news racks,
phone booths, "Adopt -a -Highway" signs, banners on buildings, buses, etc. — have
transformed Miami into a city with more than sufficient forms of outdoor advertising.
For this reason, Sarmiento's proposal is to provide the residents of Miami with the Latest
high-tech bus shelters, without advertising, which will create an instant positive impact.
•
The fact that Sarmiento Is already a contractor with the City of Miami (after having
won a bid in which we competed against three other companies) and the fact that our
outdoor advertising elements have already been installed, gives the City a sense of
security that there will be consistency and continuity with the existing family of Street
Furniture and that the one-to-one relation we have with the City will be enhanced.
Taking into consideration that the legislation of the State of Florida permits cities to
directly contract the fabrication and installation of shelters (sec Exhibit 1), and
considering that Sarmiento is an international business with more than 50 years'
experience in the design, construction, installation and maintenance of Street Furniture, it
is our pleasure to present the following proposal:

This proposal, divided into two Stages, detailsthe necessary
� u n on steps
generate standards sec by
immediate positive change but also a long
cities with the most advanced Street Furniture solutions.
•
Sarmiento can begin immediately in the areas of maintenance and improvement of the
existing shelters:
152AQUI In this stage, Sarmiento begins right away to maintain and improve the
existing shelters.
a) Detailed inventory and reports on the quantity of existing shelters and their
current state,
b) Immediate removal or reinstallation of shelters that are not up to ADA standards
in order to prevent potential lawsuits against the City.
c) Immediate cessation of the aerial electrical connection of the shelters connected to
FPL by aerial overhead drop which is not permitted by the City.
d) Repainting and deep -cleaning of the shelters (graffiti removal, replacing the glass,
etc.) which will produce an immediate improvement and will better the image and
esthetic of the old bus shelters.
e) Continuous, regularly scheduled maintenance once the initial work is completed
(see Exhibit 2).e refurbishing of
f) Installation of posters that �ell inform

shelters, provide Public Srvicea
plans the City wishes to express (see Exhibit 3).
ST . 2• At the same time as Stage 1 is underway, this stage will begin.
a) Design, fabrication and installation of the new bus shelters.
Design: three models of shelters will be presented (see Exhibit 4), Each model
complies with every one of the regulations of the building codes of the City of
Miami, Miami -Dade County, and the State of Florida with regard to size, design,
ADA standards, distance from the street, protection from wind and rain, hurricane
resistance, etc)
Fabrication: once the design is approved, Sarr lento will immediately begin to
install the first 30 shelters. The materials will all
her op- ality anwood,n c.d wd ill include
stainless steel, aluminum, tempered glass, pressure-treated
the model chosen. Since vandalism is inevitable, the glass used
that isbeighe
o has
eady
�
same as is used in the ebroken, panels sh�atterstin small rsquares rather;than shards .to
resistant glass which, h
help prevent cuts.
Installation: depending on the model chosen, we can begin to install the bus
shelters in accordance with the Installation Timetable (see Exhibit 5).
1 Note: the "D" model has been specially dasigne:d for the City of Miant1.

Sarrniento has a wide variety of experience in this field. The old bus shelters will
be replaced by new ones during hours of least vehicular traffic, preferably at
night, so as to avoid disrupting the flow of traffic and pedestrians.
Regularly Scheduled Maintenance: (see Exhibit I)
b) Plan to replace the benches and shelters in those places where it is physically
possible. In every location where bus benches are present and the conditions
permit it, the shelters will be replaced and every effort will be made to keep the
time between removal and installation to a minimum:
Note: The two stages will be achieved simultaneously; which means that the City of
Miami can begin to take immediate action to better the aspect of the City while at the
same time beginning to work towards a definitive solution.
It is our hope that you will provide the opportunity for Sarrniento to enhance its
partnership with the City of Miami while working to better the City's Image by
modernizing its bus shelters. We feel that this public service will benefit not only those
who use public transportation on a regular basis, but will also provide a much -improved
esthetic for all those who drive past the bus shelters located throughout the City,
Sincerely,
Eduardo Terranova, President
