Dear Mr. Mirabile:
We are writing to request an extension of the Osun's Village Project.Contract. This is
necessary because of several issues which created delays:
• Attempted to get City of Miami to secure Master Permit through Interlocal
Agreement with FDOT for facade renovations to buildings. This request was
recently denied by City of Miami, Risk Management.
• Modified foundation designs of properties to meet FDOT requirements.
• Encroachment. During the FDOT Review Process, we discovered that FDOT had
acquired property from Melanie's Unisex Hair, Happy 2B Nappy and Fine Art by
Antonio/ Gallery Blue
• FDOT Quick Claimed the property back to the owners in February 2008.
We recently met with FDOT and City of Miami staff. and have worked out solutions to
these issues above. Hence, we are ready to move forward with the project.
Again, we are writing to request an extension to the Osun's Village Project Contract.
Your consideration of this request is appreciated.
Sincerely,
Ler, i' es
Executive Director.
