FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS OF MIAMI-DADE COUNTY
Pursuant to the Performing Arts Center Trust's Articles of Incorporation, the City of Miami is entitled to
appoint three representatives to the Board of the Performing Arts Center Trust, Inc. (PACT). The
current City of Miami appointees are: Marc Sarnoff, Hank Klein and Michelle Spence -Jones. Ms.
Spence -Jones term as a City of Miami representative on the Board has expired and she cannot be
reappointed. The City of Miami Commission is, therefore, requested to appoint a representative to
this seat for a new three-year term.
We would be grateful if you would consider Carole Ann Taylor for this appointment. Ms. Taylor is
currently on the PACT Board and serves on the Government Relations and Community Affairs
Committee. Throughout the years, Ms. Taylor's knowledge and expertise has made her an asset to
the Board. As the City's representative, and we believe she is exactly the right kind of person to help
us move the Center forward as we approach our 1 0th anniversary.
In order to make this appointment, the City of Miami Commission must take formal action to appoint
an individual to fill this seat, subject to ratification by the Board of the Performing Arts Center Trust. For
your information, you will find enclosed Ms. Taylor's bio as well as a copy of the PACT's Articles of
Incorporation that outlines the appointment process.
Please forward to us confirmation of the City's action in this regard at your earliest convenience. If
you have any questions or require further information, please call the Arsht Center's Vice President of
Board and Government Relations, Valerie Riles at 786-468-2203.
