ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION Adopt the Resolution. BACKGROUND Between the last meeting on July 25, 2001, and the first meeting on September 5, 2001, the Redevelopment Agency (the "Agency") will not be in session. During this period of time there may be contracts in excess of the $25,000 limitation, which may need to be awarded or terminated. The Agency has historically, during such periods, assigned certain powers to the Executive Director subject to ratification by the Agency. Additionally, administrative appeals to the Agency, as provided in Subpart B, Land Development Regulations of the Code of the City of Miami Beach, would be unable to be held between the last meeting on July 25, 2001, and the first meeting on September 5, 2001. Therefore, any required acts relative thereto should be tolled during said period. AGENDA ITEM 3ft DATE 7-lf-01 Agency Memorandum July 18, 2001 Page 2 of2 It is therefore requested that the Executive Director, or his designee, be authorized to receive and process any petitions for initiatives and referendums; sign all contracts, agreements, purchase orders, change orders, and grant applications that may affect the health, safety, or welfare of the Agency, and renew any existing contracts, for an appropriate period oftime from the last Agency meeting July 25, 2001, until the first Agency meeting on September 5, 2001, subject to ratification by the Agency at its first meeting in September 5, 2001. Since this authorization is necessary to ensure that essential services and projects continue during the period between the last Agency meeting on July 25, 2001, until the first Agency meeting on September 5, 2001, it is recommended that the Agency adopt this Resolution.
