RE: Sister City Kagosbima's Mayor Mori's Visit
Dear Mayor Di Gennaro:
City of Miami, as part of the Sister City program, has invited Mayor Moo from
!Cagoshillll!z. Japan to corne visit our wonderful city. As part of 1>>s visit, Mayor Morl will be
traveling through Miami, Florida in order to see our city and to participate in different events
throughout his stay.
At this time, I would like to extend an invitation to you and the Monroe County officials
to participate in these events. As a major and vital tourist destination in South Florlda, the
Florlda Keys are an important aspect of our State, and as such it is of the utmost importance that
Mayor Morl from Kagoshima, Japan be able to experience what it has to offer. Mayor Mori and
the delegation are interested in visiting Monroe County and Key West as part of their itinerary, a
separate mailing bas been sent to Key West's Mayor McPherson as we would like for Mayor
Morl to meet with him and Monroe County officials simultaneously.
Your help, cooperation and prompt response to this request would be greatly appreciated
as Mayor Morl arrives in Miami on July 23, 2008. They have scheduled Saturday, July 26, 2008
as the visit to Monroe CountylKey West. Please do not hesitate to contact my office at 305-860-
2060 for any information and, of course, any assistance you might need.
