Re: New Florida Hotel , et al . , v. City of Miami Beach
Dear Barry:
This letter is written as a follow-up to our various telephone
discussions regarding yours of February 23 , 1990.
The City Commission will consider the settlement proposal at
its next regular meeting. In essence, the terms of the settlement
will be as set forth in Paragraph 2 of your letter of February 23 ,
1990.
I have read Paragraph 1 of your letter, dealing with the
zoning efforts of Saglo Development Company and Saul Glotman and
Plaintiff' s "future expectations" . The City would like it to be
perfectly clear that resolution of the matter deals with only the
matters set forth in Paragraph 2 , and that the City is not entering
into any sort of contract zoning. Moreover, the City is not
representing anything one way or the other as to treatment that
plaintiff may receive v e in connection with fl ?ny matters with 1 the City.
The Plaintiff will be treated as any other person which deals with
the City. In short, resolution of this matter does not in any way
constitute contract zoning of any sort.
If your understanding is other than this, please let me know.
Sincerely yours,
IME: ls Ira M. Elegant

Re: New Florida Hotel, et al. , v. City of Miami Beach
Dear Larry:
Enclosed is a letter dated February 23 , 1990 from Barry Warsch
offering to completely resolve the above. Plaintiff has offered
$125, 000 to settle the case in full, with each party bearing their
own attorneys ' fees and costs.
I recommend that the matter be settled. This litigation began a
number of years ago in Dade County Circuit Court, where the
Plaintiff sought to enjoin the demolition of the Biscaya Hotel .
During the course of those proceedings, the City, through Tree
Masters, demolished the hotel. The litigation continued in Circuit
Court. The Plaintiff sought to disqualify Judge Knuck. Judge
Knuck did not recuse himself and the matter proceeded to the Third
District where the Plaintiff sought a writ of prohibition. The
City prevailed.
Thereafter, the cause was removed to federal court since the City
sought to foreclose its demolition lien and named the United States
Department of Labor as having an inferior interest. The matter
continues to pend in federal court at this time.
No one can guarantee the outcome of any litigation, but it appears
to be in the City's best interests to resolve the matter for the
$125, 000 set forth in Mr. Warsch' s letter. Paragraph 1 of his
letter is merely a recital since the City can in no way obligate
itself to assure the Plaintiff of any favorable treatment, zoning
or otherwise.
Please let me hear from you at your earliest convenience, or see
if the matter can be scheduled for the next commission agenda.
Kindest regards.
Sincerely yours,
IME: ls Ira M. Elegant'

Re: New Floridian Hotel, Inc. v. City of Miami Beach
Dear Ira:
As discussed, plaintiff is willing to settle this action
on the following terms :
1 . because Saglo Development Company and Saul Glotman,
the potential purchasers of the property, were granted
advantageous zoning, planning and permitting approvals, and
because plaintiff can expect similar treatment and
consideration in the future regarding usage of the property,
plaintiff will waive its damage claim and stipulate to dismiss
with prejudice all claims pending against the City, all parties
to bear their own fees and costs ; and,
2 . plaintiff will pay $125 , 000 to the City, in exchange
for the satisfaction of the demolition lien and dismissal
of all pending claims of the City with prejudice, all parties
to bear their own fees and costs .
