Good afternoon Mr. Manager,
We received the request below from Ms. Baker to appear before the Commission to address a
Certificate of Use issue. However, the Code states that she must first try to resolve her issue by going
through the City Manager and if her issue is not resolved, she can then be placed on the next
available agenda.
Here is her contact information:
Mrs. Louise Baker
786-879-6614.

August 23, 2016
Good Afternoon, Mrs. Anna Medina
As per my conversation with your office on yesterday and today, August 23, 2016 and August 24,
2016, please find our request to be placed on the calendar to address the City of Miami
Commissioner on September 8, 2016. The purpose of this request is that our company - Oliviya
Baker Academy Corp and existing business with over 75 to 100 students have been in battle with the
City of Miami Zoning Department, City of Miami Code Enforcement Department, City of Miami
Manager Office and several other City of Miami offices in reference to the Zoning Department refusal
to issue to us our CU that we applied for since the year of 2013 and as of today, 2016, we do not
have our CU for the property of 430 NW 9th street. We applied for the CU as per the laws of the Clty
2
of Miami, we followed the laws of the City of Miami in processing and paying for the CU
application. The City of Miami Zoning Department are refusing to issue the CU. We have found that
the Zoning Department did not follow the policies and procedures as outlined in their rules of the
Business Solutions Manual. Therefore we are requesting to stand before the Miami Commissioners
pertaining to the Zoning Department not following the policies and procedures outlined in the rules of
their Business Solution Manual. The unlawful practices that have occurred by the City of Miami
Zoning Department and the support the Zoning Department has received from the City of Miami
Manager Department and City of Miami Building and Zoning Department, Code Enforcement
Department needs to be addressed. We had to stop our business operation at that location losing an
estimated of $700,000. 00 or more dollars because the Zoning Department of the City of Miami did
not abide by the laws of the City of Miami Business Solution explicitly outlined in writing. In a meeting
with the City of Miami Manager on August 4, 2016, Mr. Daniel Alfonso, we shared our issue with him
in front of several of his staff. He stated the following (being recorded) "you should suit the City of
Miami because we have great lawyers!" Mr. Francisco of the Building Department of the City of Miami
stated in the August 4, 2016 meeting, "We made a simple mistake, so accept it!"
Oliviya Baker Academy, Corp is requesting a letter from the City of Miami Zoning Department
acknowledging the City of Miami Zoning Department not abiding by or following the policies and the
procedures of the City of Miami Statutes pertaining to the CU for the property of 430 NW 9th street.
Oliviya Baker's Academy, Corp needs its CU from 2013 which we paid for designated for an
elementary, middle and Junior High School at the property of 430 NW 9th street. We need our CU
updated from 2013-2016 designated for an elementary, middle and Junior High School. We have
experienced serious financial stagnation due to the City of Miami negligence in following the policies
and procedures and the laws of the City of Miami. If your office needs documentations, please
contact us. Sincerely, Mrs. Louise Baker. I can be reached at 786-879-6614. We Remain.
