City Mgr. requested to render status report
re: acquisition of land from the City of Miami

cilities and use of funds for Conv. Complex. 3/12/75

City's priority for the transmission line from
M.B. to Virginia Key until such time as the
demonstration pilot project has been in actual

be requested to pursue every avenue to reduce
the City's priority failed of passage.
