Potter, Inc. MAJOR ACCOMPLISHMENTS & OUTSTANDING PROFESSIONAL ACTIVITIES Island Modern / Key West, FL Role: Principal -In -Charge, Project Designer This project exemplifies' the landscape architect's role in shaping the built environment and enhancnig lifestyle, while seeking to foster through the landscape a deeper appreciation of art and nature within the context of the garden. The plan! palette reflects an abiding sensitivity for sound water management Indigenous plan! materials were utilized for (heir durability and minimal maintenance requirements, and their scale, texture, and form aid in the development of a privacy buffer that also offers habitat for terrestrial and avian species common to the region. The significance of this project Iles in the creative and functional relationship between interior and exterior space within a sub -tropical setting, for a relatively small garden space. Ward Garden 1 Coral Gables, FL Role: Principal -In -Charge, Project Designer Located ona three acre parcel, the Ward Garden Is bounded by eight adjacent residences and fronts a historic highway. The created landscape reflects the character of an undisturbed natural landscape found Raymond Jungles, FASLA within adjacent Matheson Hammock, a Mlaml-Dade County Park planned and designed by noted landscape architect William Lyman Phillips. Two acres of existing lawn were removed and grade manipulations and excavations undertaken to expose the oolitic substrate, creating distressed rock outcrops ranging from a few feet to twenty feel In height, and solution holes of varying size and form within the landscape. The ponds and water courses that were created were enhanced with littoral zone and emergent zone plantings of native spades, creating a series of microclimates and habitats. The significance of this project may be observed in the extraordlnary manipulation of the land to create a naturalized habitat possessing the inherent values of traditional, natural sub -tropical landscapes of The Everglades and Big Cypress. Five Acre Garden 1 Miami, FL Role: Principal -in -Charge, Project Designer Neglected and in decline as the result of &series of storms, the Five Acre Garden manifest overgrown and unmanaged plantings dominated by lawn areas andexlonsive asphalt pavement The development plan created.by thelandscape architect proposed &children's play area; an entertainment area that Is integrated with a tennis cowl; a bolanical.garden with &diverse yet cohesive plant palette including various palm species; a.native Miccosukee "dnichee'; an extensive -pedestrian circulation system; and renovated swimming pool. Theslgnitcance of the Five Acre Garden is'most effectively understood within the context of Ihe•extraordiriary damage delivered to the south•Florida landscape by a series of hurricanes thatstarted with Andrew 11992 and most recently was manifest In 20051n•Katrina, Rita, and Wilma. As well, the capacity of the natural landscape to endure and restore is of special note. Hyatt Sunset Harbor Resort 1 Key West, FL Role: Principal -in -Charge, Project Designer The garden setting for this popular Key West resort reflects an axial geometry that is compatible with and compliments the traditional Key West style of architecture. A major challenge was to provide a visual and aural buffer between the dose proximity of a public promenade and vehicular rights -of -way and the desired privacy and Intimacy of the garden's various spaces.

I hope my perspective will be helpful to you as you evaluate this exceptional candidate. My first contact with Adan Fons was while working together on a high rise project in the City of Miami. Throughout the course of the project. Adan exhibited a great ability to lead the team to accomplish their goals. He brought creative ideas that were astonishingly effective in motivating people and inspired others to work harder towards completing their work, Working with participants from a varlet' of backgrounds, Adan managed to respond consistently with exceptional skill and professionalism. During the time I have known Adan, he has distinguished himself as a conscientious and energetic pioneer in the fields of leadership and management. I have enormous respect for his professionalism and leadership skills, and have been pleased to work with him on many occasions. Another example of our working together was at the Fontainebleau Resort in the City of Miami Beach where we renovated and created several new dining and retail venues, As a Principal and Construction Administrator, Adan was very involved with the details of the renovation work. We worked closely to resolve many items related to preserving existing structures where possible and required, implementing features to bring the project up to code as well as working together with many of the developer's representatives architects, engineers, designers and contractor's to ensure that thE design and integrity of the existing structure(s) were maintained. I know of Aden's continued interest in programs related to historic preservation and his vision for sustainability. The City of Miami's Historic and Environmental Board sounds ideally suited to Adan's needs and talents. He will be coming to you with the qualities of a natural leader: genuineness. intelligence, and integrity. It is exciting to think of the ways in which he might contribute to the Board.
