To our Miami City Commissioners, Our City Leaders should call for a
Special Election so the residents can VOTE. But if you do not listen to our
people who reside in the only majority -Black district in our city, and who
are telling you that they want to VOTE! Then I am asking that you at least
appoint this talented young professional named Michael A. Hepburn to the
2402 Distr seat, so he can work with you all to bring about the much needed changes
NW ict 5 to our city. And I know it will happen with his relentless community
12th seat engagement/business skills; how he inspires our youth to reach for their
Aven vaca dreams; and I know Mr. Hepburn will continue to work hard for Senior
ue ncy Citizens like me. Most importantly I know Mr. Hepburn will be transparent,
a consensus builder, and will fight for us to hold him accountable. If you all
choose to not listen to the people who are asking for you to call for a
Special Election. Then I am requesting that you appoint Michael A.
Hepburn to the Miami Commission because I know he will. Sincerely, Ms.
Flora Baldwin City of Miami Resident

To all City Commissioners. I respectfully ask that you nominate Jacqui
Collier to fill in the Disrtict 5 seat. Mrs. Collier is well respected in the D5
community, and meets the necessary requirements as an administrator to
represent this community well. In addition, we need a change of thinking in
Distrct 5 and no longer wish to be represented by the old regime and their
family ties. I appreciate your understanding on this serious matter.

Proverbs 20:5-6 The Message Knowing what is right is like deep water in
the heart; a wise person draws from the well within. Lots of people claim to
be loyal and loving, but where on earth can you find one? The consistency
I have witnessed in the life of Fracois Alexandre concerning his culture and
community is one of absolute dedication and strength. Not only is he
qualified to be Commissioner in District 5, he has been on the forefront of
serving the people in this decade fervently and with the utmost integrity.
From cleaning the streets of his community to standing with victims of
injustice when his own was overlooked is the hallmark of what it means to
Distr be a leader in unprecedented times. His service has gone beyond the
ict 5 social justice of local communities into international relations and welfare
seat of foreign peoples, and will continue to reach beyond political boundaries
vaca uplifting the destitute and despondent locally and globally. His scope of
ncy cooperation and support crosses the lines of divisions of race, religion,
sexual gender, culture and social disparities upholding values that have
been forgotten by many in an age of corruption and civil exploitation. It is
no question whether this man will faithfully hold this chair to continue to
provide solace to the people in such dark and uncertain times. The New
Dawn and New Beginning is an awakening that we all have the privilege to
participate in as we usher in a champion of hope, courage, and
commitment. Thank you, for your insight and wisdom in selecting the one
candidate prepared to take the seat in wisdom, justice and responsibility
ensuring a better future for all. Respectfully,

It is unfair to the residents of Overtown to appoint a person to this seat.
555 Distr There needs to be an election for the position so residents and community
NE ict 5 leaders can get to know their future leader, the person who is supposed to
30th seat have their best interests at the forefront. There is something wrong with
Stre vaca this process where a resignation was submitted to be effective AFTER the
et ncy election. It is disrespectful and a blatant disregard for the people and the
political process.

1431 Greetings, I'm writing on behalf of Ms. Christine King. I believe her ongoing
1 exemplary contribution to the community is exactly what is needed. As the
BIS Distr Founder of an afterschool program for teens, serving inner-city youths, she
YAH FRA CAY ict 5 has volunteered her time by giving back to our youths in various ways. For
ALIA NKLI NE seat example, Mentoring and speaking at our program to encourage productive
N BLV vaca citizenships. It's not unusual for community leaders to show their faces for
D ncy prompts but it is certainly unusual for them to mean and put to action what
#612 they've committed to do for our youth. Thank you for this opportunity.
