ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENTATION
Adopt the resolution.
ANALYSIS
At the April 24, 2003 Community Affairs Committee meeting, Commissioner Richard
Steinberg made a motion, seconded by Vice-Mayor Luis R. Garcia, Jr., for a memorial in
the form of a bench and naming of an area of the park in honor of the late Maurice Gibb,
such honor not requiring referendum approval. Representatives from the Gibb family were
to visit Island View Park located on Purdy Avenue to formulate a recommendation on the
bench and a naming location.
The item was brought back to the Committee on May 20, 2003 to discuss the request of
the Gibb Family after their visit to Island View Park. The Family's vision changed after
visiting the park. The family advised the Committee they are now requesting for a gazebo
to be constructed in the area located immediately behind where the Island View Park sign
is currently posted; and, for the gazebo to be named the Maurice Gibb Pavilion. A motion
was made by Commissioner Bower, seconded by Commissioner Steinberg, recommending
approval of this request to the City Commission and for the Administration to coordinate a
meeting with staff from Capital Improvements Projects Office, Building Department, and
the Planning Department for the design of the gazebo. Commissioner Bower expressed
concern about the maintenance costs of the gazebo. It was agreed that maintenance
costs will be taken into consideration when developing the design of the gazebo. The
construction and design costs will be the responsibility of the Gibb Family. During the
renovation of Island View Park the neighborhood expressed concerns over the placement
of a shelter/gazebo in the park.
Pursuant to Chapter 82 of the Miami Beach City Code, the City Commission is required to
consider the proposal at a public hearing. As such, the Administration is requesting that a
public hearing be set to consider said proposal.
CONCLUSION
The Administration recommends that the City Commission set the required public hearing
to consider the establishment of a memorial gazebo structure, to be known as the "Maurice
Gibb Pavilion" to be erected at Island View Park, located at 18th Street and Purdy Avenue,
such cost of design and construction to be the responsibility of the Gibb Family.
