- CBS does a little math for us: Corruption + 11 City Workers = Miami.
- MDT is looking into using hovercraft for the 18 month pilot water taxi program. The two water taxi routes (Haulover-Miami and Matheson Hammock-Miami) would operate the $1.2 Million boats with a maximum capacity of 30-50 passengers. The hovercraft are being considered due to their minimal impact on manatees and the delicate sea grass of Biscayne Bay, but would be limited to a 30 mph operation speed.
- MIA is working on renewing an incentive program to gain new service to more destinations from Miami.
- “Cities the airport would like to begin direct service to include Capetown and Johannesburg, South Africa; Addis Ababa, Ethiopia; Nairobi, Kenya; Lagos, Nigeria; Casablanca, Morocco; Brussels; Dublin; Helsinki; Moscow; Warsaw; Budapest; Tokyo; Seoul; Hong Kong; Shanghai; and New Delhi or Mumbai, formerly Bombay.”
- The DDA may soon be granting Macy’s some financial incentives to stay downtown…I’d like to see Macy’s revamp their downtown store before we go head and hand them a handout. I couldn’t agree more with Mayor Diaz:
- “The mayor has insisted the store has to be redone so that it is appealing and more open to the street…”
What boggles my mind about the DDA Macy’s incentives deal is that I personally asked Dana Nottingham about FDS wanting to move and he stated publicly that the reported move was a rumor and not even on the table. Then there is this report.
