RE: Appeal of H FP Board Decision on 5255 Biscayne Boulevard
Dear Ms. Fernandez:
I am the owner of the Best Value Inn, located at 5255 Biscayne Boulevard, in the new
Biscayne Boulevard/MiMo District,
I would like to appeal the decision of the Historic and Environmental Preservation Board
to the City Commission. On May 1, 2007, they denied my Certificate of Appropriateness
to install windows.
The Board told me that I had installed the wrong type of window, and 1 cannot afford to
replace all the windows, as 1 have already secured lending and lines of credit just to be
able to put in the windows I wanted. I thought the windows, which I installed in this
building were strong, safe and beautiful.
I am trying to bring the property back into better shape and help the district become a
nicer place for people to do business in.
Enclosed is the required $500 Appeal fee, please let me know what the other fees are
which are required for mailing notices.
Sincerely,
anne Liu, Owner
Best Value Inns ofMiami, Inc.
