It is estimated that the 522.5 acres would need additional expenditures for improvements over and above that necessary to develop the Interama facilities for land use to meet the foregoing listed appraised value. For example, internal canals for waterfront residential lots, additional streets, etc. It is our estimate that this expenditure would be $3 million. This would be over and above the cost of improvement to the property for use by Interama.

POWER AND LIGHT

Dr. IRVING E. MUSKAT,

Chairman, Inter-American Center Authority,
Miami, Fla.

FLORIDA POWER & LIGHT CO.,
Miami, Fla., February 24, 1965.

DEAR DR. MUSKAT: Our engineering group has completed a preliminary study of the electrical system required to serve the Interama project. The importance of the continuity of electrical service has been uppermost in our minds.

We believe that you will agree that to insure the utmost in reliability of electric service to this project, two independent sources of power should be made available. To accomplish this, two underground transmission lines are proposed; one originating at our Haulover Beach substation and the other from the north from our Sunny Isles substation. Both of these lines would terminate at a substation site located in or adjacent to the industrial area. In the initial stages of supplying underground service to the substation site will be in all probability operate these two transmission lines at 13 kilovolts joining them at the proposed substation site. The electric distribution system from this point will be placed underground as required by the project's development.

For this to be accomplished, we will ask Interama to provide the necessary easements together with the substation site of approximately 200 feet by 200 feet.

Construction service prior to opening will be provided from overhead distribution lines, the costs of which will be worked out individually with each contractor requiring such service.

Although we are ready and willing to contract with you for the installation of street lighting, there are many details as to design of fixtures, poles, and so forth, that will require further discussion with you.

We look forward to working with you and your associates in the development of the Interama project and congratulate you on the fine achievements you have already accomplished.

Sincerely yours,

R. C. FULLERTON, Executive Vice President.

Mr. MORRIS LIPP,

Coordinating Engineer, Interama,

DEAR MR. LIPP: You recently met with us and requested that we send you a letter stating that we were willing to provide telephone service in the Interama area. You further stated that all utilities would be required to be underground and that you were hopeful that construction charges would not be required from Interama.

We are willing to provide underground telephone service in the Interama area without construction charges subject to the following conditions:

1. That Interama provide all of the necessary right-of-way and/or easements that we need without cost to the Southern Bell Telephone Co. 2. That we will not be required to install facilities in the Interama area until such time that we feel the demand for telephone service is imminent. 3.
