Eric M. Soroka City Manager City of A ventura Government Center 19200 West Country Club Drive Aventura,FL.33180 RE: Biscayne Bay Aquatic Preserve - Maule Lake Embankment and collateral matters - Dear Mr. Soroka: This will acknowledge your letter of April 11, 2007 to Mr. Luis Nunes, President Point East Three Condominium Corporation, Inc. Please be advised that the claim that we failed to contact the City Manager's Office is incorrect. You were provided with individual notice via the copy to you in our letter to Mayor Gottlieb of March 12,2007 responding to her letter of February 27, 2007. If you examine your files you will find that you, Mayor Gottlieb, and the City Commissioners had received repeated requests to take appropriate action. You may wish to examine your files accordingly. In our letter to Mayor Gottlieb we reiterated the statutory authority that places liability for mitigation of hurricane damage on the most immediate political subdivisions adjacent to this area. It appears that there may have been a failure by Mayor Gottlieb to communicate much of this information to you. We repeatedly advised you that careful research into the issues of liability and jurisdiction involving the embankment/seawall at Point East clearly indicates that much of this area is on public property. Accordingly, it is respectfully suggested that you carefully read these statutes yourself rather than referring them to the City Attorney. To reiterate, the applicable Florida statutes that are applicable to this anomalous situation are: Title XII, Chapter 177; LAND BOUNDARIES, PART II COASTAL MAPPING, ~177.28 (1), and Title XVIII, Chapter 258, Part II, AQUATIC PRESERVES, ~258.39, and ~258.397 Biscayne Bay Aquatic Preserve. 1 These statutes and all official maps indicate that the Point East seawalVembankment is both adjacent to and part of the Biscayne Bay Aquatic Preserve of the state of Florida. As such, all parts of the preserve below the mean high water line are public property. Primary jurisdiction over this area of the public lands of state of Florida clearly falls within the purview of the City of Aventura and Miami-Dade County. Additionally, Title :xxvm, Chapter 370, SALT WATER FISHERIES - ~370.03 Water Bottoms, -- (1) states in part: "OWNERSHIP. --All beds and bottoms of navigable rivers, bayous, lagoons, lakes, bays, sounds, inlets, oceans, gulfs and other bodies of water within the jurisdiction of Florida shall be the property of the state except such as may be held under some grant or alienation heretofore made. No grant, sale or conveyance of any water bottom, except conditional leases and dispositions hereinafter provided for, shall hereafter be made by the state, the Board of Trustees of the Internal Improvement Trust Fund, the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, or any other official or political corporation." This statute clearly applies too much of the bottom of Maule Lake as well as the remainder of the Biscayne Bay Aquatic Preserve. The only exclusion would appear to be those grants made prior to June 1, 1913. Subsequently, Title XI, Chapter 161, BEACH AND SHORE PRESERVATION, ~ 161.085 - Rigid coastal armoring structure, indicates that even if the seawalVembankment were not public property the state and the political subdivisions of Miami-Dade County and the City of Aventura are obliged to abide by Title XI, Chapter 161. Regarding Title XI, Chapter 161, ~161.085(3) states: "If erosion occurs as a result of a storm event which threatens private structures or public infrastructure and a permit has not been issued pursuant to subsection (2), unless the authority has been revoked by order of the department pursuant to subsection (8), an agency, political subdivision, or municipality having jurisdiction over the impacted area may install or authorize installation of rigid coastal armoring structures for the protection of private structures or public infrastructure, or take other measures to relieve the threat to private structures or public infrastructure as long as the following items are considered and incorporated into such emergency measures: (a) Protection of the beach-dune system. (b) Siting and design criteriafor the protective structure. (c) Impacts on adjacent properties. (d) Preservation of public beach access. (e) Protection of native coastal vegetation and nesting marine turtles and their hatchlings. " It must also be considered that Title XVII, Part I, Chapter 252, EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT, 9252.38 "Emergency management powers of political subdivisions," expands on and supplements Chapter 161. Initially this subdivision states: "Safeguarding the life and property of its citizens is an innate responsibility of the governing body of each political subdivision of the state. " In this regard ~252.38 (1), COUNTIES, Subsections (a),(b),(c),(d), and (e) obligates Miami-Dade County to perform such functions consistent with the requirements of Chapter 252. 2 Consistent with Chapter 252, ~252.38 (1) and as part of its Home Rule Amendment Miami-Dade County provides for responsibility by the county under Article 7, PARKS, AQUATIC PRESERVES, AND PRESERVATION LANDS. Within Article 7, ~7.04 provides jurisdiction over aquatic preserves within the county. Accordingly, the Biscayne Bay Aquatic Preserve is part of the public land under the jurisdiction of Miami-Dade County as well as the City of A ventura. Subsequently ~252.38 (2), MUNICIPALITIES provides the specifics as to the responsibilities (and liability) of these particular political subdivisions while ~252.38 (3) provides extensive power and authority. In this regard the City of Aventura enacted Ordinance No. 97-19, ~ 1(1), Ordinance. No. 97-19,9 1(2), and Ordinance No. 97-19, ~ 1(3), on August 5, 1997 to implement Chapters 163 and 166. The objectives are specified in ~30.163. Thus far the elected public officials of City of A ventura have chosen not to abide by these regulations despite numerous requests. No doubt objective ethical deliberation and extensive critical thinking -- as well as qualitative and quantitative analysis - are required prior to making the fully informed value judgments regarding the actions that the City of A ventura and other political subdivisions should be taking or be required to take. Your thoughtful consideration of our evaluation and commentary and such promptly executed consequential action as may be indicated is requested - and would be appreciated.

Accordingly, Point East will have several other authorized representatives at the rescheduled City of Aventura workshop of May 31, 2007 to represent our fiduciary, proprietary, and legal interests as taxpaying residents of the City of Aventura, Miami-Dade County, and the state of Florida. Subsequently, we will be in Scotland for some time due to commitments at my University and some legislative consulting matters at the EU. Based on these commitments we will not be able to return to Aventura until our other obligations have been completed. We will hopefully be returning to Aventura early this fall. In the interim I trust that all outstanding matters involving meaningful representative governance will be resolved in an amicable manner that serves the best interests of the several thousand resident taxpayers of Point East in the most progressive and constructive manner possible. The cooperation and prompt attention of all public officials of the city, the county, and the state in these matters would be sincerely appreciated, Respectfully, Abraham Moses Genen NOTICE: This a-mail message and any attachment to this a-mail message is PRIVilEGED and CONFIDENTIAL and is intended only for the person(so) or entity to which it is addressed since it ,may contain confidential, proprietary, and/or privileged material.

Nunes, President Point East Three Condominium Corporation, Inc. 2895 Point East Drive Aventura, FL 33160 Re: Point EastThree Condominium Corporation, Inc. - Seawall Facility Dear Mr. Nunes: Reference is made to a letter dated February 27, 2007 from Mayor Susan Gottlieb regarding your letter of February 19,2007 relating to the above subject. In the Mayor's letter she indicated if you wished to request that the item be placed on the April Commission Workshop Agenda, you were to contact the City Manager's Office. Although we did not receive any communication from you, we did place this matter on the April Workshop Meeting. However, the City Attorney has advised that he was called out of town unexpectedly the day of the April Workshop Meeting. Obviously, his involvement in this matter is important based on his review and knowledge of the subject. Based on the foregoing, this matter has been rescheduled to the May 31,2007 Workshop Meeting. I apologize for any inconvenience the rescheduling of this matter may have caused you. Please contact my office to confirm that you or your representative will be attending the May meeting. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter. ~ .. Eric M.

On numerous occasions, the City Attorney has advised you that the City of Aventura does not have any responsibility in dealing with repairing the hurricane damage to your seawall on private property. Based on his review of this matter, that is the position of the City as it relates to your request to use public tax dollars on private property. It is my understanding that the other condominium corporations at Point East have acted in a responsible fashion and have initiated the process to repair their seawalls. As far as your request to place this matter on a City Commission Agenda, you may contact the City Manager's Office to request that this item be placed on the April Commission Workshop Agenda. I am sorry that the City is not able to assist you in this matter. However, as you do to your condominium association, I have a responsibility as Mayor to ensure that our tax dollars are spent in accordance with the City Charter and Florida State Statutes. ~J/jJtM Susan Gottlieb Mayor SG/act cc: City Commission Eric M.

Susan Gottlieb Mayor City of A ventura 19200 West Country Club Drive Aventura, Florida 33180 REGISTERED MAIL - RETURN RECEPT REQUESTED RE: City of Aventura liability for Public Property pursuant to Title XVII, Part L Chapter 252, ~252.38 (3)(a) F.S. , ,~: Dear Mayor Gottlieb: This will acknowledge receipt of your letter of February 27,2007 (attached). Our cognitive evaluation of your brief letter indicates that you failed to research the statutes we cited that are pertinent to this dispute. Rather, you appear to have uncritically acquiesced to the presumed authority of the City Attorney. If you had studied public administration as part of the practice of general municipal law you would have found that one of the problems with the city. manager form of governance is the tendency of non- attorney elected officials to accept the opinions of the city manager and the city attorney without question. Since all of the arguments provided by the City Attorney in his letter to Luis A. Nunes of February 14, 2005 have been found to be frivolous, irrelevant, absurd, badly flawed, or otherwise defective, you are strongly urged to personally conduct the required research. You can find all of the statutes cited at: httpl/ww,",v,legstate. flus/Statutes/indexcfm'7Mode= View%:20Statutes& Submenu= 1 &1 a b=statutes&CFID=11865:285&CF10KEN=12532565 Previously, we provided compelling evidence and statutory documentation that pursuant to Title xvn, Part, L Chapter 252, ~252.38(3)(a) the City of Aventura has the power and the authority to repair public property. As Mayor of the City of Aventura you should also be aware of your authority and responsibilities pursuant to A ventura Ordinance, Number 97-19, ~9 1(1)(2) and (3) of August 5,1997. Title XII, Chapter 177; LAND BOUNDARIES, PART n COASTAL MAPPING, ~177.28 (1), Title XVllI, Chapter 258, Part II, AQUATIC PRESERVES, ~258.39, and ~258.397 Biscayne Bay Aquatic Preserve, all state that the Point East seawalVembankment is both 1 aOJacent to ano constItutes part of the Biscayne Bay Aquatic Preserve of the state of Florida. This area is clearly public property. By copy of this letter to the City Manager you are respectfully requested to promptly place the matter of remediation of the seawalVembankment at Point East on the April Commission Workshop agenda for a full and open discussion and subsequently proceed with mitigation of the damage referred to at the earliest possible opportunity. In the absence of any valid arguments and provisions of law that would constrain the City of A ventura from fulfilling its statutory obligations the officials of the City of A ventura could be considered culpable in accordance with Title X, Chapter 112, ~112.51(1). Accordingly, the City of Aventura, its Commissioners, and its other relevant public officials would be well advised to promote an enlightened, progressive and constructive public policy that fully provides for the public's needs and best interests. This should also be done in lieu of such subsequent formal actions as we may be required to undertake to demonstrate the extent of the liability of the City of Aventura. A prompt and constructive response to this letter i~ indicated. Sincerely, ~Q.~ Luis A. Nunes President OLk/2L_ Arthur M. Ruben Vice President Burton E. Lederman Secretary ~~-- Cc: Eric M.

Soroka City Manager City of Aventura 19200 W. Country Club Dr. Aventura, Florida 33180 Re: SUPDort for Locatine: Northern Terminus of Proposed Water Taxi Proiect at Sunny Isles Beach. Dear Eric: As we discussed, I'd appreciate Aventura's support to locate the Northern Terminus of Miami-Dade County's proposed Water Taxi Pilot Project at the marina site recently purchased by Sunny Isles Beach. Please know that this recommendation does not supplant the Halouver Park location, it provides an additional site which we think would be beneficial to the success of the pilot project. Here's why: 1. A dock/staging area is already in place. 2. The site we just purchased in conjunction with contiguous properties can accommodate roughly 200 parking spaces. 3. In addition to easy access for vehicles, this site is also pedestrian friendly in that we currently have over 4,800 residential units within half a mile of the marina. In addition, there are over 2,300 proposed/under construction units within the same distance. 4. Our free shuttle bus system also includes the Aventura Shopping Mall which services A ventura residents at no cost. We also provide services to North Miami Beach residents from the Intercoastal Mall in North Miami Beach. Of course, the shuttle buses would make stops at the Sunny Isles Beach Marina site. 5. A developer built bay walk will connect the proposed Water Taxi terminal at Sunny Isles Beach directly to Collins Avenue. For informational purposes, I'm enclosing a copy of previous memoranda sent to the Transit Subcommittee as well as Jose Luis Mesa, Director of Miami-Dade E.

Z007 I 188 lJoac;h City ot sunnyc:y Man_gor otftC8 otthe Re: Water Taxi Dear Mr. Barreiro: I read with great interest and enthusiasm the recent article in the Miami Herald about the water taxi pilot project that is being sponsored by Miami-Dade Metropolitan Planning Organization ("MPO"). Coincidentally, on the day the article was published in the Herald. the City purchased a marina near the intracoastal waterways near the 163rd Street Bridge. When the City Commission decided to purchase the marina, we had envisioned the site as a suitable site for a water taxi operation. The site is an ideal site because we intend to create a marina park that will be gateway to our Town Center where residents and visitors will be able to walk along our proposed boardwalk to enjoy dinner and shopping at the restaurants and stores that will be located in the Town Center. Moreover, the City intends to create more than two hundred (200) public parking spaces adjacent to the marina. These public parking spaces will be supported by the City's shuttle bus service, which provides transportation to A ventura Mall and other destination points in neighboring cities. While 1 notice from reading the article in that the northern route will stop at Haulover Beach Marina. I am respectfully requesting that the City's marina site be included in the pilot proJect. As indicated previously, this site will provide residents and visitors with the opportunity to enjoy amenities in the City and neighboring cities. The City has a genuine interest in working with members of MPO and Miami-Dade County in creating an alternative means of transportation for the residents and visitors of Miami-Dade County. Thank you for your utmost consideration in this matter. If you need any additional information from the City, please feel free to contact me at (305) 947-0606. Sincerely.

Ronda 33180 Office of the City Manager The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission City of Aventura Aventura, Florida 33180 Enclosed herein is briefing on the proposed City of Aventura Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for the fiscal period October 1, 2007 through September 30, 2012 and the proposed Capital Budget for the Fiscal period October 1, 2007 through September 30, 2008. Due to the property tax reform issue being addressed in a special session of the State Legislature in June, this document is in draft form and does not include a detailed funding plan. At this point, this document has been prepared to brief the City Commission on the recommended five year CIP projects based on a series of assumptions. Only essential equipment and technology replacements are funded from the General Fund. All other projects were considered if they had funding sources other than the General Fund and did not impact the General Fund form an operational standpoint. Other assumptions affecting the funding plan will be discussed at the Workshop Meeting. At this point in the City's history, the need for major capital improvement funding has decreased due to a very ambitious schedule of completing major community facilities and infrastructure projects during the past eleven years since the incorporation of the City. This document represents an update of the CI P that was originally prepared for the five year cycle of 2006 to 2011. The update process is important for the CI P to become a continuing and ongoing planning/implementation process. The last four years of last year's program were reevaluated in light of unanticipated needs, cost revisions, new project priorities and the financial condition of the City. In addition, the CIP was updated to add new projects in the fifth year (2011/12) to complete the cycle. Projects included within the framework of the program were based on input from Commissioners, staff, City consultants and citizens. The following represents the significant revisions or modifications to the proposed CIP compared to the prior document: . Added Waterways Dog Park Improvements - $378,000. . Added Veterans Park Modifications - $258,000. . Increased project scope and costs associated with the Traffic Video Monitoring for Country Club Drive - $1,900,000. . Added Founders Park Playground Replacement - $415,000. . Added NE 185th Avenue and NE 31th Avenue Road Resurfacing- $170,000. . Added Recommended Projects for Traffic Flow Improvements - $199,500. . Delete proposed Performing Arts Center at a cost of $10,000,000 and added a proposed Multipurpose Auditorium at a cost of $4,714,000. The proposed 2007 - 2012 Capital Improvement Program includes 26 projects in 5 functional categories with a total value of $17,327,909. The following represents the percentage of total funding that each functional category has been allocated: Beautification & Parks Facilities (7%), Transportation, Drainage and Infrastructure Improvements (33%), Capital Equipment Purchase and Replacement (16%), Information/Communication Technology (17%) and Public Buildings and Facilities Improvements (27%). Major emphasis was placed on the following projects: . Park Improvement Projects . Transportation and Traffic Improvements . Stormwater Drainage Improvements . Multipurpose Auditorium 1,171,000 4,611,500 1,160,000 4,714,000 The preparation and formulation of this document could not have been accomplished without the dedicated efforts of all Department Directors and their staff. Their professional efforts have assisted in the preparation of this important planning program. I request and recommend that you take the following actions regarding the proposed 2007 - 2012 Capital Improvement Program: 1. Hold a workshop meeting to review the draft CIP document in May. 2. Hold a workshop meeting to review the final document with a recommended funding plan in June. 3. Hold a public hearing in July to conceptually adopt the final CIP document, by resolution, for implementation. All questions relating to the CIP should be referred to my attention.

This introduction also explains how to locate a specific project in this document. PURPOSE OF THE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM The purpose of the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is to establish a long term plan of proposed capital expenditures, the means and methods of financing, and a schedule of priorities for implementation. In order to determine the impact on the City's operating budget, debt service and the general trend of future expenditures, the City Commission will be provided with the advantage of a CIP document as a point of reference and estimated long term budget plan. In accordance with the State's Growth Management Act, the City is required to undergo this process in order to meet the needs of its Comprehensive Plan. The CIP is an official statement of public policy regarding long-range capital development in the City of Aventura. A capital improvement is defined as a capital expenditure of $2,500 and office equipment expenditure of $500 or more, resulting in the acquisition, improvement or addition to fixed assets in the form of land, buildings or improvements, more or less permanent in character, and durable equipment with a life expectancy of more than one year. The CIP lists proposed capital projects to be undertaken, the year in which they will be started, the amount expected to be expended in each year and the method of financing these projects. Based on the CIP, a department's capital outlay portion of the annual Operating Budget will be formulated for that particular year. The CIP document also communicates to the citizens, businesses and interested parties the City's capital priorities and plan for implementing projects. The five-year CIP is updated annually to add new projects in the fifth year, to re- evaluate the program and project priorities in light of unanticipated needs, and to revise recommendations to take account of new requirements and new sources of funding. Capital Improvement programming thus becomes a continuing part of the City's budgeting and management procedures. The annual capital programming process provides the following benefits: 1. The CIP is a tool for implementing the City's Comprehensive Plan. 2. The CIP process provides a mechanism for coordinating among projects with respect to function, location, and timing. 3. The yearly evaluation of project priorities ensures that the most crucial projects are developed first. Capital Improvement Program 2007-2012 Page 1 City of Aventura 4. The CI P process facilitates long-range financial planning by matching estimated revenue against capital needs, establishing capital expenditures and identifying the need for municipal borrowing and indebtedness within a sound long-range fiscal framework. The sound fiscal policy that results from this process will have a positive impact on the City's bond rating. 5. The impact of capital projects on the City's operating budget can be projected. 6. The CIP serves as a source of information about the City's development and capital expenditures plan for the public, City operating departments and the City Commission. LEGAL AUTHORITY A capital programming process to support the comprehensive plan is required by the Local Government Comprehensive Planning and Land Development Regulations, incorporated as Chapter 163, Florida Statues. DEVELOPMENT OF THE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM The City's capital programming process began in December when operating departments were required to prepare requests for all proposed capital projects anticipated during the period of 2007 - 2012. A CIP Preparation Manual and related forms were distributed to all departments for this purpose. In February, departmental prioritized project requests were submitted to the City Manager's Office. Department Directors were asked to justify projects in terms of benefits derived, necessity to health, safety and welfare of the City, enhancement to City plans and policies, need of residents and funding. Projects were prioritized on the basis of Urgent, Necessary, Desirable, and Deferrable. The City Manager reviewed departmental requests and conducted individual meetings with Department Directors. The departmental requests were prioritized and the five- year schedule of projects was compiled into document form by the City Manager. The methods of financing and revenue sources were then prepared by the Finance Support Services Director and City Manager and were incorporated into the CIP document. At this point, the proposed CIP is submitted to the City Commission and public for review. In order to facilitate publiC involvement, public hearings and community meetings will be held to unveil and review the CIP document prior to the adoption of a Resolution approving the CIP in principle. Capital Improvement Program 2007-2012 Page 2 City of Aventura CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM POLICIES 1. Annually, the City will prepare a five-year capital improvement program analyzing all anticipated capital expenditures and identifying associated funding sources. Future capital expenditures necessitated by changes in population, changes in development, growth, redevelopment or changes in economic base will be calculated and included in the Capital update process. 2. The City will perform all capital improvements in accordance with an adopted capital improvement program. 3. The classification of items as capital or operating will be determined by two criteria - cost and frequency. Generally, a capital project has a "useful life" of more than one year and a value of $2,500 or more, or for office equipment $500 or more. 4. The City will coordinate development of the capital improvement budget with the development of the operating budget. Future operating costs associated with new capital improvements will be projected and included in the operating forecasts. 5. The first year of the five-year capital improvement program will be used as the basis for formal fiscal year appropriations during the annual budget process. 6. The City will maintain all of its assets at a level adequate to protect the City's capital investment and to minimize future maintenance and replacement costs. 7. The City will identify the estimated cost of capital projects and prepare a funding projection that considers revenues and operating costs to be included in the Capital Improvement Program document that is submitted to the City Commission for approval. 8. The City will determine the most appropriate financing method for all new projects. 9. If appropriate, the City will attempt to maintain a mixed policy of pay-as-you-go and borrowing against future revenues for financing capital projects. 10 The City will maintain ongoing maintenance schedules relating to road, sidewalk and drainage system improvements. 11. The City will address and prioritize infrastructure needs on the basis of protecting the health, safety and welfare of the community. 12. A CIP preparation calendar shall be established and adhered to. 13. Capital projects will conform to the City's Comprehensive Plan. 14. Long-term borrowing will not be used to fund current operations or normal maintenance. 15. The City will strive to maintain an unreserved general fund balance at a level not less than 7.5% of the annual general fund revenue. 16. If new project appropriation needs are identified at an interim period during the fiscal year, the funding sources will be identified and mid-year budget Capital Improvement Program 2007-2012 Page 3 City of A ventura amendments will be utilized to provide formal budgetary authority. In addition budget amendments may be utilized to increase appropriations for specific capital projects. PREPARING THE CAPITAL BUDGET The most important year of the schedule of projects is the first year. It is called the Capital Budget and is adopted separately from the five year program as part of the annual budget review process. Based on the CIP, each department's capital outlay portion will be formulated for that particular year. Each year the CIP will be revised and another year will be added to complete the cycle. Capital Improvement Programming thus becomes a continuing part of the City's budget and management process. The Capital Budget is distinct from the Operating Budget. The Capital Budget authorizes capital expenditures, while the Operating Budget authorizes the expenditure of funds for employee salaries, supplies, and materials. Through the City's amendment process, changes can be made to the adopted Capital Budget during the fiscal year. A request for amendment is generated by an operating department based on an urgent need for new capital project or for additional funding for a previously approved project. The request is reviewed by the Finance Support Services Director and City Manager and, if approved by the City Manager, a budget amendment is presented to the City Commission. LOCATING A SPECIFIC CAPITAL PROJECT The Capital Improvement Program is divided into five program areas as follows: Beautification and Parks (BP) Transportation, Drainage and Infrastructure Improvements (TDI) Public Buildings and Facilities (PBF) Information/Communication Technology (ICT) Capital Equipment Purchase & Replacement (CE) Each project in the Capital Improvement Program has a unique project number. This project number appears at the beginning of the individual project descriptions and the Summary by Year tables. The first digit refers to functional category priority number assigned by the City Manager. The final digits outline the individual department requesting the project. For example, project TDI-1-CS is Transportation, Drainage and Infrastructure Improvements project number one which was requested by the Community Services Department. Capital Improvement Program 2007-2012 Page 4 City of Aventura READING THE PROGRAM SCHEDULES Detailed information about each capital project is presented in the section titled "Capital Improvement Program Project Descriptions and Funding Schedules". The section is arranged by program area and functional category and includes a description of each project and the funding schedules. Project timetables for each functional category are indicated in the Summary by Year tables. The funding schedules are based on the funding needed to complete an individual project. A project's funding may continue for several years depending on the development timetable. Each program has a separate Funding Plan Table that outlines the revenue sources proposed to fund project expenditures. Capital Improvement Program 2007-2012 Page 5 City of Aventura OVERVIEW OF RECOMMENDED PRO,JECTS SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDED PROJECTS The proposed 2007 - 2012 Capital Improvement Program includes 25 projects in 5 functional categories with a total value of $17,327,909.

The City's Comprehensive Plan recommended standard is 2.75 acres of park and recreation land for every 1,000 potential residents. The amount of park and recreation land required by the park standards for this population is 81 acres. In calculating the number of recreation acres the city has available for use by residents, public private, golf courses and marinas are accounted for at a different degree depending on accessibility to citizens of the City. Assuming that public facilities can be accounted for at 100%, private recreation facilities at 50%, and marinas and the golf course at 25%, the City existing and proposed recreation areas total 115. Therefore, no deficiency exists under the City's standards. Table PFOS1 contains an inventory of existing and proposed recreation and open space areas. The City owns 30.5 park/open space acres. The major park facility improvement outlined in the 2007/08 - 2011/12 relates to the reconfiguring two park locations and maintenance projects. The projects are included in the detailed project descriptions and a funding schedule that follows. (See Tables 1 and 2). The completion of the five - year Capital Improvement Program for parks/open space recreational facilities will continue to provide the City residents with a well rounded recreational and park system geared toward meeting the needs of today and tomorrow.

This major undertaking, addresses median and right of way landscaping throughout the public areas within the City, and was adopted as one of the City's budget priorities and goals. The landscape design includes the planting of an assortment of palm trees, including date palms at the City's entrances and coconut and royal palms on various medians throughout the City, as well as shade trees such as live oaks. With this Beautification Program, the City Commission has fulfilled its long-term goal of creating the signature of the City and establishing its reputation as "the most beautiful City in South Florida". The actual construction of these projects will be ongoing until all of the improvements to the various areas within the City are complete. In 2006, the City funded a Landscape Restoration Program in the amount of $1 ,500,000to respond to damage from hurricanes experienced in 2005. The following areas have been completed or are scheduled for completion as of the 2006/07 fiscal year: Aventura Boulevard, Northern City Entrance, NE 207th Street, NE 183rd Street, NE 185th Street & 28th Avenue, NE 190th Street, NE 1915t Street, NE 29th Avenue, NE 18ih Street, NE 188th Street, NE 213th Street, Biscayne Boulevard and FEC Landscape Buffer, Aventura Boulevard Entrance Features, Country Club Drive, Yacht Club Way, William Lehman Causeway, NE 20ih Street Swale, 2006 Citywide Hurricane Landscape Restoration Program; Miami Gardens Drive and the Biscayne Boulevard Median (NE 209-212 St).

Soroka, ICMA-CM, City Manager FROM: Commissioner Billy Joel DATE: May 8, 2007 SUBJECT: Recognition of Schools Serving Aventura Students We are all very proud of the accomplishments of the City's Charter School. However, I feel it is appropriate to give recognition to all public schools that serve our students. Therefore, I am requesting that this item be placed on the next Workshop Meeting agenda. All such public schools should receive a "thank you" proclamation and plaque at a City Commission meeting for all the work they do on behalf of our students.

MEMO From: Commissioner Bob Diamond To: Eric Soroka, City Manager Dated: May 20, 2007 Re: Former Commissioner Arthur Berger - presentation of "Radiant Maiden." As per our discussion, kindly list the above matter on our Workshop Agenda for May 31, 2007. Our Commission has discussed, on numerous occasions, the need for increased cultural involvement in our city. I took pride in introducing the Dranoff Twin Piano concerts to Aventura and, I believe Mr. Berger's performance will be on the same high cultural level. We are fortunate that Mr. Berger has offered to perform for the Aventura residents, without any personal compensation, a one person play that he wrote and copyrighted called "Radiant Maiden." It is a one-act play about Edgar Allan Poe, famous in American literature for poems and short stories that have become classics. Running time is about 50 minutes. Sponsored by the Florida Center for the Book, Mr. Berger has performed the play at several of their libraries, at the Littman Performing Arts Theater in North Miami Beach, and also for high school students as well as universities, such as Nova University. Florida Atlantic University recently booked him to perform the play. . Although I have not seen the play, several close friends whose opinions I greatly respect, recently saw the play and had rave comments about the performance. I anticipate several such residents being present at our May 31 st Workshop. It is my belief that Mr. Berger's performance will be most revealing to many of our younger people who may have had little exposure to the work of one of America's greatest authors. I suggest that we make available for the performance either one of two sites, namely, the second floor of our Government Center Lobby (where we had the Dranoff Twin Piano performances) or the gym at our Community Center. Mr. Berger is requesting some staging requirements: a lapel mike, a lectern, easels for two of his pictures, a chair and a hat rack. There are a few setting props that he is also requesting that can easily be provided. I suggest a slightly elevated platform that would also be available for all future cultural performances. I believe that using the good efforts of Bob Sherman, yourself and the local newspapers, proper publicity for the event should be at minimal expense. In the words of Lewis Ress, a highly respected local attorney who recently saw the play, "this application for approval before our City Commission is like going before the Harvard Board of Trustees and offering a million dollar bequest."
