Netherland Pier proposition. 1Layor's ietter-- oontd. 5�- eee— kZ l'he Clerk read the following oontscunioati:. n, containing further ohjtvdto to the Netherland Pier proposition:- Cent1e en: Ampl*fyine somewhat _,:e of the objeotior,s raised 4enMei m; letter cf the 6th t_ the City Ctfunnil in re Netherland Pirir, :te ject1ee is se t forth as No. 2., as to heaalitp of Ceeteaat, I %te ..3t t ...,*eat that -re I .�oKne t be 1 � _ that the oft, could least to any i?'��``,* so,. a:.y ports:,,: of the land, submerged or otherwise, between Eighth' Fourteenth Streets by reason of its specific limitation in the B ndi Itoe tion Call. It is true the oity will take title from the Florida gah't. Coast Railway without restetotions and, of course, the city wouldnet ace eept any other title, the railway company being in no way interested in the purposes for which the land is intended except in so tar as it May affect the validity of the bonds. To quote from Section #1 of the pall the language used is "fei park andothe: municipal purposes". It cannot be contended that a pirvately owned pica for private gain is either a park or a Municipal purpose. The people of Miami when they voted in t ele election vote, to ts.:.ue bonds to buy land for a speeirio purpose. If this land is eivertee to any other purpose, in whole or in part, then the bonds are being used for the purpose of doily something other than that ter which t jtey were issued. Suppose that an election had been called to issue betide to buy, the Royal Palm Park for park purposes exclusively; negotiations with the ._ East Coast had been entered into and thepark purchased and conveyed to the City of Miami, Florida, by a warranty deed with no reetriotions. After deed .s delivered the oity decides that it will lease to John Smith a certain part cf the park on which to build and operate an inoinwerator. An incinerator in that instance is a municipal purpose, but it is m t a park purpose and, therefore, 1 believe any taxpayer within the city limits could enjoin the execution of such lease. It mutt be borne in mind that the issue of $1,500,000.00 in bonds is not limite.: in its lien to the bay front park, but attaeheet to every foot of property in the city limits. Possibly a bond -holder might object to a pier ane certainly a tax -payer could. If it is proeosed tc: put the pier between Sixth rand Eighth,Str then that title is acquired, as to the submerged lands, under the deed fait , .. the State of Flceida, which expressly limits the atate's deed tomatt,- cipal purposes only, tole feature might, how:ver, be worked out, so tht:t a pier might be located here under a leas 'for thirty (30) year's ,-n ly . %He e .
