We missed your presence at the April 8, 2010 Board of Director's meeting. I hope this
letter finds you well and serves as a brief recap of the meeting and future events,
At the meeting, City of Coral Gables Mayor, Donald Slesnick, President of the Florida
League of Mayors presented "stop passing the buck, a new initiative to protect local
property taxpayers from Tallahassee's backdoor taxes and more big government."
Additionally, Mayor Cindy Lerner of the Village of Pinecrest discussed the issue
regarding FPL and the transmission lines. She also brought to our attention three
resolutions (numbers 2010 -11, 2010 -12 and 2010 -13) that the Village of Pinecrest passed
and that they forwarded to the Public Service Commission and to the Department of
Environmental Protection. One of our Associate Members, Leo Toca, Vice President,
Senior Community Development Officer, Wachovia/Wells Fargo spoke about a workshop
the bank is hosting "miami home preservation." They will have over two hundred
specialists and support personnel to assist homeowners in having their questions answered
and sometimes even help find a solution to their mortgage payment challenges. For more
information about this workshop, please feel free to contact our office.
The League's Legislative Committee distributed MDCLC's 2010 Legislative Action
Agenda booklet which reflects the issues that we as a League are supporting.
Furthermore, Darcee Siegel, City Attorney for the City of North Miami Beach, and the
Chairperson of the MDCLC Legal Advisory Committee provided the members with
information on what the Committee is currently working on.
The Board of Directors also passed three resolutions MDCLC 2010 -1, 2010 -2, 2010 -3,
which can be viewed on the League's webpage.

Country Club, located at 10000 Biscayne Blvd., Miami Shores, FL 33138 starting with a
reception at 6:00 p.m. followed by our dinner Board Meeting at 7:00 p.m..
Once again, I thank you for your commitment to the Miami -Dade County League of
Cities and I hope to see you on May 6, 2010. If there is anything I can be of assistance
to you with, please do not hesitate to call me at the League office.
