cafes a $150 annual permit fee and a fee of $10.00 per square foot per annum for the cafe

Section 20-11, (175),(b),(c) levies, and imposes a license tax fee of $7.00 per chair for one
to fifty seats and S8.00 for each additional chair over fifty.
At the City Commission meeting of September 10, 1997. the City Commission approved
the proposed sidewalk cafe ordinance and agreed with the Administration's suggestion that
the $7.00 and $8.00 per chair charges for sidewalk cafes as stipulated in Chapter 20,
Section 20-11, (175),(b),(c) of the "Business Licenses" of the Miami Beach City Code be
exempted from said charges. This amendment to the Business Licenses ordinance
effectuates the elimination of the per -chair charge on sidewalk cafes.
