LTC# 030-2022 TO: FROM: DATE: Alina T. Hudak, City Mana January 18, 2021 LETTER TO COMMISSION bers of the City Commission SUBJECT: PARKS & RECREATIONAL AGILITIES ADVISORY BOARD MOTIONS The purpose of this Letter to Commission (LTC) is to inform the Mayor and Commission of the two motions passed by the Parks and Recreational Facilities Advisory Board at its meeting on January 12, 2022: MOTION 1: The Parks and Recreational Facilities Advisory Board would like to again recommend that the City install flamingo-inspired artwork into Flamingo Park as part of the City's branding effort. The Board originally sent an L TC to Commission on Oct 8, 2019 (L TC 541-2019) with that recommendation. The Parks and Recreational Facilities Advisory Board further motions that a specific, flamingo-inspired art project be added to Flamingo Park that is a "branding effort" in the form of a mural or sculptures. We recommend that this project be completed independently from the existing Art in Public Places cultural effort, and that staff from the Parks and Recreation Department work with the Tourism & Culture and Marketing & Communication Departments to create an effective branding installation at Flamingo Park. Motion made by: Sean Smith Motion seconded by: .Jonathan Fryd Motion passed: Unanimously MOTION 2: The Parks and Recreational Facilities Advisory Board motions in support of identifying long-term recommendations and sites for dedicated pickleball courts in Miami Beach ensuring that all affected stakeholders are involved in the process and that any proposed site includes lighting. Additionally, the Board supports finding short-term solutions for dedicated pickleball sites at existing facilities that could be implemented quickly. Motion made by: Sean Smith Motion seconded by: Carolina Jones Motion passed: Unanimously Should you have additional questions, please contact Cindy Casanova at (305) 673-7730. ~G:[9~ ATH/MT/JR/CC
