Dear Christina:
Per our conversation last week, I have been in contact with Dale Bryant and John Oldenburg from
your Parks and Recreation Department. They are very interested in the possibility of obtaining an Areca
Palm that I am willing to donate to the City. We have tentatively agreed (contingent on Commission
approval) that I will have the tree delivered to a specific location and the City will install and maintain
the palm from that point forward.
As requested, I am enclosing a picture and a certified valuation letter for the specific tree. Please feel
free to contact me at (305) 531-2413 with any questions or comments. Thanks for your assistance and I
look forward to providing the City with a valuable donation that will be a part of our community for
many years to come.
Sincerely,
Ilt~
