At the time of its formation, the CCCPOC was charged with oversight of the $35 million capital projects fund received by the City in the 1996 Interlocal Agreement with Miami-Dade County. To that end, we feel that we have played a vital role in the stewardship of those funds and their contribution to the many upgrades that have been done to the Miami Beach Convention Center and Jackie Gleason Theater. Re-roofing of the venues, a complete reconstruction of the telecommunications and data distribution infrastructure, and improvements to the restrooms, carpeting, and other systems have helped maintain the facility as a viable meeting destination, both nationally and internationally. However, as the commitment of the funding has been completed, and the associated projects near completion, it has become evident that the need for this committee has reached its end. With the current annual capital outlays available for the venues, the oversight of a dedicated committee is no longer required. Therefore, as Chairman and members of the CCCPOC we respectfully request that the Convention Center Capital Projects Oversight Committee be sunsetted, and that we be allowed to contribute their talents in other more vital and requisite oversight functions within our great city. We appreciate your review of this request, and thank you for your c sid rati .
