September 7, 2004 SEP - 7 2004 Larry Leeds City of Dania Beach 100 West Dania Beach Boulevard Dania Beach, FL 33004 Dear Mr. Leeds: Thank you for extending of our variance request until October 31, 2004. We greatly appreciate your kindness and consideration. As you know, we anxiously await our permanent relocation to an edifice that will enable us to fully function as a ministry. Our move to the new facility depends solely on the ability of the present tenants to forecast the completion of their new sanctuary. In recent correspondence with the Board of Trustees and governing leaders,we have been informed that their construction project has been delayed for an o undetermined length of time. The aftermath of Hurricane Frances prolongs the uncertainty of our scheduled relocation. Due to circumstances beyond our control,we regret to humbly submit another request to extend the variance on a temporary basis through December 31, 2004. We hope to vacate the premises prior to this date but recognize the need for flexibility in our approach. With your approval, we will continue to offer positive and wholesome services that are beneficial to persons iri every age category in.the City of Dania Beach, FL.
