Re: South Miami PBA City Pension Board Trustee Election
Dear Mr. Witt:

Please be advised that pursuant to a May 21, 2010 Bargaining Unit Notice a candidacy filing
period was established expiring at 5:00 p.m. June 10, 2010. During the 20 day candidacy filing
period only one bargaining unit member submitted her name for candidacy and therefore Rita
Torres is elected as the PBA/South Miami PD Pension Board Trustee. Further, the Pension
Board Trustee Election scheduled for Monday, June 14, 2010 is canceled as being unnecessary.
Therefore, please make the necessary arrangements for this matter to be placed on the next City
Commission Agenda for the Commission's approval of her re- appointment as Pension Board
Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
Sincerely,
es C. Casey
