have realized a gradual reduction in its residents contracting the virus; and
WHEREAS, the cities and villages of Miami-Dade County need a co-
ordinated effort to help control the spread of this deadly virus; and
WHEREAS, only by the County exercising its county-wide jurisdiction
by issuing a blanket shelter-in-place Order, with enforcement powers, can
the cities and villages of the County effectively deal with the continuing
spread of the virus among its residents.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE VILLAGE OF

Section 1. The above recitals are incorporated as if set forth in full.
