After the LTC was published, the Parks and Recreational Facilities Advisory Board Chairperson,
Jonathan Groff requested that the Administration review the audio to make clarifications on the
intent of the Board if the audio supports the modification. After careful review the Department
would like to clarify the intent of the Motion to the following (modifications are underlined):
MOTION: The Parks & Recreational Facilities Advisory Board, after giving careful
consideration, unanimously requests that the space currently designated as the Par 3
putting green, and that the space which includes the open space adjacent to the Scott
Rakow Youth Center building, pool and parking lot, be fully considered as an open
recreational and play area for the children of Miami Beach and specifically, for activities and
programming at the Scott Rakow Youth Center.
As previously stated in the LTC dated April 3, 2014, the Board recognizes and is aware that a
Settlement Agreement between the City and the neighboring residents was previously agreed to.
It also understands that this is a modification to that agreement and requires Commission action.
The Board members, as understood by staff, will be reaching out to their respective
Commissioners in order to find a sponsor for their motion and request a referral to the
Neighborhoods Community Affairs Committee, or Land Use, whichever the Commission deems
appropriate.
