ANALYSIS
Please add to the March 1, 2017 City Commission Consent Agenda a resolution to waive the
City fees for the Ruck for Vets event to be held in Miami Beach on April 22,2017, from 8:00
a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
Ruck for Vets is a six-mile foot march to raise awareness and secure non-profit funding for
veteran's suicide awareness and prevention.
Due to the limited amount of time to submit the necessary paperwork, I would ask that the
Commission agree to vlaive the associated fees for the event contingent on all information
being provided to and vetted by the City, with all the requirements below being met.
The fees to be waived would include the application and pennit fees ($250 each) and the
administrative and user fees to be determined by the City through the application process.

lD, most recent 990). confirmation from the non-profit organization that they are to be the applicant/ permittee/
insured/indemnified to be able to waive the application and permit fees ($250 each)

COMMISSION MEMORANDUM
nt to FY16/17 Capital
As I am unable to attend the March 1,2017 City Commission meeting, I respectfully request that
Item R7A be deferred to the April, 2017 Commission meeting, so that I may participate in the
consideration of this item and more fully address the issues set forth in this Memorandum.
The proposed Agenda ltem R7A, the Third Amendment to the FY 2016117 Capital Budget,
"deappropriates" the $36 million the City Commission previously allocated, from various revenue
sources, to fund the Light Rail/Modern Streetcar Project, so that the $36 million may become
available for use for other unspecified projects (so long as those projects meet the authorized
uses for each individual fund).
Although my colleagues and I unanimously voted to suspend the Streetcar Project at the
December 14,2016 City Commission meeting (see Resolution No. 2016-29690, attached), the
purpose and intent of the Streetcar Project was to bring about meaningful traffic solutions that
address traffic congestion and gridlock within our City.
With or without a Streetcar Project, the need for traffic relief continues to be one of our City's
greatest challenges. For several years now, the City's residents and visitors have continued to
experience increased traffic congestion as a result of significant growth in traffic volumes. As
we all know, traffic congestion increases overall driver frustration, increases safety concerns,
and serves to diminish our residents' quality of life and our visitors' experience. A local and
regional transportation network that includes short and longterm mobility solutions, and that
brings about traffic relief to the maximum extent possible, is critical to our City's continued
success.
As much remains to be done to improve traffic conditions in the City, and in view of this
Commission's recent unanimous support for meaningful local and regional traffic solutions in
Resolution No. 2016-29690, I believe that this Commission should continue to prioritize
transportation initiatives that reduce traffic congestion and improve the quality of Iife for
our City's residents and our visitors' experience.
For this reason, with respect to the proposed amendment to the Capital Budget, I support the
re-prioritizing of the $36 million allocated for the Streetcar Project, but only if these funds are
used for transportation-related initiatives and projects, including but not limited to transit
projects that may be developed in partnership with Miami-Dade Gounty, the Florida
Department of Transportation, and the federa! government.

OFFICE OF THE MAYOR AND COMMISSION
I urge each member of this Commission to not only supporl talk of traffic reduction measures,
but to dedicate the funds to improve traffic conditions for the benefit of our community.
As there is no emergency requiring the immediate approval of this item, I request the brief
deferral of Agenda ltem R7A to the April, 2017 Commission meeting, so that I may participate in
the consideration of this important amendment.
