RE: Abandon construction site
Adjacent to South Miami Metro Rail Station
Regarding the above captioned abandon construction site and as per your instructions, please
note that Mr. Ruben Arias, Director of Public Affairs for Miami Dade County Commissioner
Carlos A. Gimenez, District 7 was contacted.
During our conversation with Mr. Arias, we requested a follow up to the official request made by
Mayor Horace G. Feliu to Miami Dade County Commissioner Carlos Gimenez regarding the
clean up of the abandon construction site adjacent to the South Miami Metro Rail Station. As
per the conversation with Mr. Arias; to date the following has been done:
Mr. Arias has forwarded to Miami Dade Transit a formal request for the clean up of the
abandon construction site adjacent to the South Miami Metro Station. The site is unsafe
and unsightly.
* Public Works staff has been instructed to "temporarily" secure the existing gate at the
construction site facing 59`" Place.
* There is also existing graffiti on the interior side of the concrete barriers. The Public
Works Department has offered to paint over the graffiti and forward the cost to Miami
Dade Transit.
't Please see attached pictures of site.
As soon as we have update from either Miami Dade Transit or from Mr. Arias we will notify
you.
Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
