RECOMMENDATION
Accept the recommendation of the Public Safety and Neighborhood Quality of Life Committee
meeting on March 7, 2022, approving the proposed renaming of the North Beach Bandshell
facility located at 7275 Collins Avenue, as The Miami Beach Bandshell and, pursuant to Section

BACKGROUND/HISTORY
During the January 20, 2022 City Commission meeting, Commission referred a discussion
regarding the renaming of the North Beach Bandshell facility located at 7275 Collins Avenue as
The Miami Beach Bandshell to the Neighborhood and Quality of Life Committee.
At the March 7, 2022 Public Safety and Neighborhood Quality of Life Committee meeting
(formerly known as the Neighborhood and Quality of Life Committee), the Committee
approved the renaming of the North Beach Bandshell facility located at 7275 Collins Avenue, as
The Miami Beach Bandshell.
ANALYSIS
The Bandshell is being proposed for the National Register of Historic Places in May 2022. The
facility located at 7275 Collins Avenue was originally called the "North Shore Community
Center," and this name has not been used for many years. The current name "North Beach
Bandshell" is therefore not considered historic by any measure. In addition, the name "North
Page 812 of 1735
Beach Bandshell" is confusing as it is unclear whether the building is located in the Northern part
of Miami Beach or the Cities of North Miami or North Miami Beach, independent Cities located
within miles of the facility.
Originally, there were four bandshells located in the City, but now there is only one. Renaming
the facility as the Miami Beach Bandshell would be appropriate.
The Bandshell is now managed by The Rhythm Foundation and the building has developed a
growing international recognition, as an important component of the City`s effort to market its
international identity as a burgeoning community of arts and culture. The Rhythm Foundation is
increasing its streaming and media production capacity to a larger national and international
audience through support from the Knight Foundation and others. This increased visibility
makes the renaming of the Bandshell an even more valuable asset to the City.

COMMISSION MEMORANDUM
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission
FROM: Mayor Dan Gelber
DATE: January 20, 2022
SUBJECT: REFERRAL TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND QUALITY OF LIFE
COMMITTEE FOR A RECOMMENDATION, AS REQUIRED BY THE CITY'S
NAMING ORDINANCE, REGARDING THE PROPOSED RENAMING OF
THE NORTH BEACH BANDSHELL FACILITY LOCATED AT 7275 COLLINS
AVENUE,AS THE "MIAMI BEACH BANDSHELL."
BACKGROUND/HISTORY
Please place on the January 20,2022 agenda a referral to the Neighborhood and Quality of Life
Committee for a recommendation, as required by the City's Naming Ordinance as set forth in
Section 82-503 of the City Code, regarding the proposed renaming of the North Beach
Bandshell Facility located at 7275 Collins Avenue as the"Miami Beach Bandshell".
The Bandshell is being proposed for the National Register of Historic Places in May, 2022.
The facility located at 7275 Collins Avenue was originally called the "North Shore Community
Center," and this name has not been used for many years. The current name "North Beach
Bandshell" is therefore not considered "historic" by any measure. In addition, the name "North
Beach Bandshell" is confusing as it is unclear whether the building is located in the Northern part
of Miami Beach or the Cities Of North Miami or North Miami Beach, independent Cities located
within miles of the facility.
Originally, there were four Bandshells located in the City of Miami Beach and now there is only
one, and accordingly, renaming the facility as the Miami Beach Bandshell would be appropriate.
The Bandshell is now managed by The Rhythm Foundation, a not-for-profit and the building has
developed a growing international recognition, an important component of the City's effort to
market its international identity as a burgeoning community of arts and culture. The Rhythm
Foundation is increasing its streaming and media production capacity to a larger national and
international audience through support from the Knight Foundation and others. This increased
visibility makes the renaming of the Bandshell an even more valuable asset to the City.
For these reasons, I would propose that the City Commission consider changing the name of
the facility to the"Miami Beach Bandshell."
