City of Miami Beach
The purpose of this LTC is to provide the attached letter from the Housing Authority of the
City of Miami Beach (HACOMB), rejecting the City's offer to purchase an easement for the
construction of the West Avenue Bridge.
At the June 25, 2009 Finance Committee meeting, the HACOMB requested that the City
submit a written offer for the purchase of the easement. The Committee directed the
Administration to submit a written offer for the easement for the appraised value of $1.635
million. The written offer was submitted to the HACOMB on June 30, 2009.
On September 8, 2009, the HACOMB Board met to consider the offer of June 30, for the
purchase of the easement. The HACOMB Board voted to reject the offer and directed the
Housing Authority Administration to continue with plans to develop the entire property, as
described in the attached letter.
The Administration will place a discussion of this item on the October 29, 2009 agenda of
the Finance and Citywide Projects Committee. In the meantime, if you have any questions or
comments please do not hesitate to contact me.
