Re:
Mid-America Apartment Communities, Inc. Form 8-K filed September 23, 2005
(File No. 1-12762)
Dear Mr. Flinn:
On behalf of Mid-America Apartment Communities, Inc. (the “Company”), we submit this letter in
response to comments from the staff (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“Commission”) received by letter dated September 27, 2005 relating to the Company’s Current Report
on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on September 23, 2005 (the “Form 8-K”). Pursuant to your
letter dated September 27, 2005, this is to confirm the following:
•
the Company is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the
filing;
•
Staff comments or changes to disclosure in response to Staff comments do not foreclose
the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing; and
•
the Company may not assert Staff comments as a defense in any proceeding initiated by
the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the
United States.
In addition, the Company confirms to you that it will file an amendment to the Form 8-K when
KPMG’s dismissal becomes effective. The amended Form 8-K will include the actual dismissal date
and an updated letter from KPMG filed as Exhibit 16.
Please feel free to call me with any questions regarding the foregoing.
Sincerely,
/s/ Robert J. DelPriore
Robert J. DelPriore
