Issue: Should the City issue the Request For Letters of Interest? Item Summa /Recommendation: Since 2007,the City has partnered with a variety of human service agencies to create the Miami Beach Service Partnership, a collaborative seeking to build capacity among service providers and improve the quality of services provided to our community's youth, families and the elderly. Initial funding for this effort was provided by The Children's Trust.The City is now in its last year of funding under this agreement which expires July 31,2013.The Request For Proposals for continuing funds is expected to be issued by The Children's Trust(Trust) sometime after November 1, 2012.

In the past, the City partnered with any agency agreeing to the terms of membership with the Miami Beach Service Partnership which has included the execution of a Memoranda Of Understanding, attendance at the monthly board meetings and the promotion of the Partnership and its services.

This may include State, Federal and private foundation funding.
