Gentlemen:.
I am attaching hereto letter from lir. S.B.Sampson
in reference to islasepaving liens on lot 3 Resubdivision
of Lot 5 Block 3 Rickmers Addition.
This lot is located on iB 13th St. at the head of NB
Bayshore Drive as it enters 13th 6t.
This street was paved in 1921 with oil surface treat-
ment and the assessment against this lot for this paving
was 4165.59. In putting down the new asphalt pavement,
the street car tracks had to be shifted to the south and

the paving that was put down in 1921 was
a new pavement put down. The assessment
lot for the new asphalt pavement amounts
all torn up and
against this
to 41160.26.
In view of all the circumstances, i would say that
Mr. Sampson should be reimbursed for the amount paid on
the old pavement - 4165.59.* I therefore recommend that
the :Director of &inanoe be instructed to issue a voucher
to Lir. ;Sampson #.n this amount payable out of the general
Fund.

Dear Mr. Wharton:..
Cpnfirming oonversation regarding the bi�_
for paving Lot 3 Resubdivi lion of Lot 5 Block 3 Riolmners Adel:
located on xE 13th St., at the head of •North lay Shore Drive,.,
wherein I explained that when J. J. Bridges and I owned this -
lotwe had paid the City of Miami the sun of 4185.59 for paving:
Then when the City made the exchange with
The Belcher Asphalt Paving Co., for an additional 35' on the
south side of 13th St., EAST OF NORTH BAY SHORE IRIVE and east
of our property, they decided to pave the widened street with
Asphalt. At tiie time that this improvement was advertised
and authori zed t,,r . Brick,: es was in Maryland and I was in Cal—
ifornia, so we knew nothinL of tn.3 matter until after the work
had started. -Later it was found neccessary to move the Street
Car 'tracks in front of our property to line up with the middle
of the widened dened portion, east of us, so therefore the City tore
u± a perfectly hood street, that we nad paid for in front of
our property, an a .now notify us of a lien of 41,160.W. r
While we do not object to pay for betterments,
we do object to paying for a good street twice within two years,
and feel that as the neccessity of this better street was lardy
oocassioned by the changing of the street oar tracks, we should
be Given credit with the amount originally paid. If you will
recommend a refund of thisr185.59, and have this approved
by the Commissioners, we will immediately authorize Mr. T. F.
:aoAuliff, wno has these funds in escrow to pay tnis last assess-
ment of 4;1,160.26, taus settlein;; the matter.
Yours very truly,
