Marvin Dunn is outraged.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The 85-year-old historian and civil rights activist believes the Miami Dade College District Board of Trustees met in secrecy on Sept. 23 when they called a special meeting at Hialeah Campus.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

At the gathering, the trustees unanimously voted to convey 2.63 acres of property\u2014that sits next to the Freedom Tower and is valued at $67 million\u2014to the State of Florida for the construction of the Donald J. Trump Presidential Library.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThey passed it without discussion, unanimously. How does that happen? And then within hours, the state announces\u2026the land’s going to go to Trump,\u201d Dunn said at a press conference<\/a> on Oct. 1 in front of the state attorney\u2019s office where he filed a legal complaint<\/a>. He later added, \u201cI don’t think that happens without people talking behind the scenes.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Miami Dade College President Madeline Pumariega denied the accusations in an email to <\/span>The Reporter<\/span><\/i>: \u201cMiami Dade College fully complies with Florida\u2019s Sunshine Law in noticing and conducting its Board of Trustees meetings. For this particular special meeting, notice was provided seven days in advance, the agenda was published on the College\u2019s website, and the meeting was open to the public. In fact, a reporter from the <\/span>Miami Herald<\/span><\/i> was present at the meeting.”<\/span><\/p>\n

A special board meeting notice is posted<\/span><\/a> on the College\u2019s press releases webpage, dated Sept. 16. It states: \u201cthe District Board of Trustees will discuss potential real estate transactions.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

To find the notice, you can go to the school\u2019s main page at <\/span>www.mdc.edu<\/span><\/a>, access the <\/span>About MDC<\/span><\/i> drop-down menu at the top of the page, click on <\/span>MDC News <\/span><\/i>and then click on the <\/span>Press Room<\/span><\/i> tab.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The gathering, unlike regular BOT meetings, was not livestreamed.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe absence of the disclosure, the failure to include the matter properly on the agenda, and the immediate announcement of the land\u2019s dedication to the Trump Presidential Library strongly suggest that decisions were made outside the public eye, in direct violation of the Sunshine Law,\u201d Dunn wrote in his legal complaint.<\/span><\/p>\n

District Board of Trustees Vice Chair Roberto Alonso said that the special BOT meeting was triggered following a request made by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis to Pumariega\u2019s office on Sept. 16: \u201cto convey a piece of property to the state for public good.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

On Sept. 30, the Florida Cabinet voted unanimously to convey the land <\/span>toward the construction of the Trump Presidential Library<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis is really going to be able to continue to create that cultural center right there in Downtown Miami, with several other museums and <\/span>the Freedom Tower just reopening<\/span><\/a> last week, having the presidential library there is going to really add to that component,\u201d Alonso said to <\/span>The Reporter<\/span><\/i> after the cabinet\u2019s decision. \u201dIt allows us to integrate curriculum and strengthen our role as a national leader in education for the College.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Dunn, who is a professor emeritus at Florida International University, strongly disagrees: \u201cThe issue here is they took land from our kids without the decency of asking us, the public, what we thought about that.\u201d He later added, \u201cDon’t be misled, this is not a historical project. This is an economic development project\u2026with hotels, condos and encased in that, this presidential library.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
