City Commission Meeting
of February 12, 1975
I have been informed by Mr. David Simpson, Jr., Director,
Department of Administration, Planning and Zoning Boards,
that Mr. Sidney M. Aronovitz is to appear before the Com-
mission on February 12, 1975, requesting an extension of
time for the Conditional Use granted by Resolution Number
43228 and extended for a one year period by Resolution
Number 73-109, covering the premises legally described as
Lots 38 and 39 and a portion of Block B, Fort Dallas Park,
Plat Book 4, Page 85.
The use of the premises is that of a public parking area
and therefore is required to meet the City of Miami Lighting
Ordinance 8115 as amended. Due to the fact that the pro-
perty in question is located in the downtown (C-3) district,
the minimum requirements of illumination are an average
minimum of two fooLcandles of illumination per square foot
with no spot on the parking surface to have less than one
footcandle.
The Ordinance permits an alternative to lighting by securing
the parking area in such a manner as to prohibit the use of
the parking area during the evening hours. Individuals who
feel particularly aggrieved by the Ordinance may appeal to
the Parking Area Review Board for a waiver of the lighting
requirements.
Mr. Aronovitz has not at this time requested an appeal from
the provisions of the Lighting Ordinance, therefore I recom-
mend that the members of the Commission be made aware of the
lack of required lighting and gain from Mr. Aronovitz an
indication as to when he intends to comply with the lighting
requirements.

Re: City Commission Resolution No. 74-625 dated 7/25/74
Extending Conditional Use for Additonal Year, Originally
Granted by Resolution No.43223, and Thereafter Extend-
ed by Resolution No. 73-109. (Lots 38 and 39 and portion
of Block B, Fort Dallas Park, P/B 4/35 - City National
Bank, as Trustee.)
Dear Mr. Andrews:
The extension granting "Conditional Use"
for interim parking lot granted by the Miami City Commission
through Resolution dated July 25, 1974 expires February 17,
1975.
I am sure that you realize that economic
conditions have not changed for the better, and that high
construction costs, high interest rates have caused a delay
by the Feinberg interests which own the subject property
through City National Bank of Miami, as Trustee, in their
plans for construction on the site. It is not possible to
proceed with construction unless or until there is a meaningful
improvement in economic conditions.
By reason of the aforegoing, I have been re-
quested to seek an extension of the above "Conditional Use"
for a period of one year from February 17, 1975. It is my
understanding that the subject parking lot is in conformity
with the Lighting Ordinance requirements after inspection
within the past 60 days by the City.
Honorable Paul Andrews
January 20i 1975

Would you please be kind enough to schedule
on the Agenda of the City Commission a request for the ex-
tension herein noted in sufficient time that will not cause
the existing '"Conditional Use" to expire. Kindly notify
me of the date and time for the scheduled hearing, and I
will appear before the City Commission at that time.

Thank you very much.
Cordially,
Sidney M.''Aronovitz

P. S. Incidentally, my last letter to you dated June 23,
1974 which resulted in the extension granted July 25, 1974
had requested the extension until July 31, 1975, but
inadvertently the Resolution signed and placed into effect
left a hiatus between the time requested in my letter and
the time reflected by the Resolution. Partially because
of the aforegoing, I am asking for the neat extension, but
have indicated a full year from the usual date of expira-
tion, namely, February 17, 1975.
