The purpose of that meeting was to discuss development issues related to the above referenced property. My company represents Parks Masterson and Hopkins Carter Company in their potential acquisition of the property. During the meeting,we proposed to your staff several important questions concerning the planning and development of the property. The most important of these questions were as follows: 1. On-site parking requirements for the site,given the mixed wholesale and retail nature of the Hopkins Carter Company business 2. Leased off-street parking ability allowable under your current zoning code(if the leased parking area/facility is within1,000'of the subject property). Unanswered questions concerning the two items above include: 1. Concerning the on-site parking,Winton Dingwell Partners,Inc.as agent to Hopkins Carter Company, respectfully requests a written confirmation of the your staff's commentary that the planned structure (utilized as both a retail and wholesale facility)can be on-site parking programmed for both retail and wholesale parking at one space per every 300 SF of retail area,and one space per every 500 SF of wholesale area. The historical combination of retail and wholesale space at the Hopkins Carter Company facility is 50%/50%. 2. Concerning off-site parking,we would also appreciate an in-writing response as to confirmation of our ability to utilize leased off-site parking as a supplement to the overall parking requirements. In addition to the off-site!easing confirmation,as we.have received conflicting information,we will also need in-writing confirmation as to the minimum lease term any off-site supplemental parking. As the Hopkins Carter Company acquisition contract is nearing the end of the due-diligence phase,we would appreciate a timely response to these questions. Should you have any questions,please feel free to contact meat any time. Sincerely, t Bradford M. ell Principal cc: Parks Masterson 4.

I feel that the ERPB is way out of line and acting as Emperors. As a Veteran and US citizen, I feel outraged to the point of closing my business. I asked for two simple signs professionally made by a sign company with my name (Rick' s Garage) and phone number period. I know that I am being extorted for variance money of Four Hundred Fifty dollars, I will not pay it ! I know too well it is hoped I put up signs illegally so as to levy stiff fines, lock up my bus- iness and confiscate my things - do it ! I would rather spend my time suing this city and its Emperors than to waste any more time or money. As a designated Federally sponsored and State of Florida sponsored training auto repair shop, I have requested the help of the Federal Government and have mentioned to them my business training program specially for Veterans leaving the military is being delayed by a bunch of idiots ! Especially from the ERPB. Finally, .I have a Civil Right to own a business which helps to feed my family. Deny me this, impose extortion fines, extort exsorbent variance fees and I will petition a State or Federal Judge for an injunction against what you people are doing - All involved should be ashamed of yourselves. I lived in Berlin, Germany three years and visited the communist East Berlin as a tourist and can assure you whatever few small merchants there were, the State and Communist party did not harass them as much as what you people are doing. Yes, there must be controls, order, cleanliness and ordinances . However, you people are way out of line and I believe there is a fine line between order and Dictatorship. My Civil Rights and protection against the fear of authoritarian dictatorships are guaranteed me and every US citizen. Close me up, take my things away and already I fear for my economic ruin over two signs . Finally, I am prepared for purpose of discovery through the courts and legal channels, subpoenas for names, address and phone numbers of all merchants in the past three years that have been denied reasonable sign requests . I will , through the courts sue the members of ERPB individually and as a group along with the City of South Miami for damages , lost business wages and confiscated property. In .the form of compensatory damages, I will seek Two Million dollars for punitive damages for the willful and negligent manner in which the City and the ERPB is .. conducting itself. I also for the purpose of discovery, legally through the court system subpoena each individual member of the ERPB for deposition with a court reporter present . Finally ladies and gentlemen, I have nothing to lose but my business, take that away and the ability to feed my children along with the ability to train at least three Veterans this year and I will beg the court and personally beg a Judge to give me my day in court; with a jury of six to decide if indeed my civil rights are being trampled. . Today I have written a letter to the F.B. I . to determine if being in a Federally sponsored training program they might assist me in investigating this pathetic matter .
