2016-29443 Reso RESOLUTION NO. 2016-29443
A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION
OF THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, URGING THE
FLORIDA LEGISLATURE TO HONOR THE INTENT OF THE
CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT APPROVED BY FLORIDA
VOTERS IN 2014("AMENDMENT 1"), AND APPROPRIATE
FUNDING FOR THE ACQUISITION AND IMPROVEMENT OF
LAND FOR CONSERVATION PURPOSES.
WHEREAS, the City of Miami Beach ("City") is comprised of a number of islands
with approximately 70 miles of shoreline along numerous canals and waterways, the
Atlantic Ocean, and Biscayne Bay Aquatic Preserve, all of which support a wide variety of
flora and fauna; and
WHEREAS, Article II, Section 7 of the Florida Constitution states that"[i]t shall be
the policy of the state to conserve and protect its natural resources and scenic beauty"; and
WHEREAS, Florida is known for its beautiful rivers, lakes, streams, wetlands,
forests, wildlife habitat, and beaches and shores, and these natural assets are central to
our quality of life and economic vitality; and
WHEREAS, in 1963, the Florida Legislature created the Land Acquisition and
Trust Fund, which was the first in a series of land acquisition programs for conservation
and recreation purposes; and
WHEREAS, subsequently, the Florida Legislature created several mechanisms to
protect state lands, including the Environmentally Endangered Lands program (protecting
environmentally unique and irreplaceable lands), the Conservation and Recreation Lands
Program, the Save Our Coast program (for the purchase of coastal lands), the Save Our
Rivers program (funding the acquisition of more than 1.7 million acres of land), the Florida
Communities Trust, and the Florida Forever program (Florida's premier land acquisition
program, which has funded the purchase of more than 718,126 acres of land); and
WHEREAS, on November 4, 2014, almost 75% of Florida voters voted in favor of
a constitutional amendment, known as Amendment 1, which (1) allocates at least thirty-
three percent (33%) of net revenue from documentary stamp taxes to the State's Land
Acquisition Trust Fund, and (2) dedicates funds in the Land Acquisition Trust Fund
exclusively to "finance[ing] or refinanc[ing] . . . the acquisition and improvement of land,
water areas, and related property interests, including conservation easements, and
resources for conservation lands including wetlands, forests, and fish and wildlife habitat;
wildlife management areas; lands that protect water resources and drinking water sources,
including lands protecting the water quality and quantity of rivers, lakes, streams,
springsheds, and lands providing recharge for groundwater and aquifer systems; lands in
the Everglades Agricultural Area and the Everglades Protection Area; beaches and shores;
outdoor recreation lands, including recreational trails, parks, and urban open space; rural
landscapes; working farms and ranches; historic or geologic sites; together with
management, restoration of natural systems, and the enhancement of public access or
recreational enjoyment of conservation lands"; and
WHEREAS, Amendment 1 mandates the dedication of hundreds of millions of
dollars each year to programs funding the acquisition of land for conservation purposes;
and
WHEREAS, the Mayor and City Commission strongly endorse Amendment 1 and
its policy of conservation for the benefit of residents, wildlife, and natural resources
throughout Florida; and
WHEREAS, Florida's ecosystems must be protected because of their great
biodiversity; and
WHEREAS, several environmental groups have challenged the State Legislature's
allocation of Amendment 1 funding to programs that do not directly fund land acquisition for
conservation purposes; and
WHEREAS, in June 2015, the Florida Wildlife Federation, joined by other
environmental groups, sued the Florida Legislature, alleging that the Legislature had
misallocated $237 million for administrative expenses, instead of land conservation, in
violation of Amendment 1; and
WHEREAS, in November 2015, Florida Defenders of the Environment sued the
Department of Environmental Protection, Department of Agriculture and Consumer
Services, Florida Department of State, and the Fish and Wildlife Conservation
Commission, to block these agencies from misspending funds in violation of Amendment 1;
and
WHEREAS, on May 14, 2015, the South Florida Water Management District's("the
District") Governing Board held a discussion regarding its option to purchase 46,800 acres
of farmland owned by U.S. Sugar at an estimated cost of $500 to $700 million, which
purchase would require additional funding by the State Legislature; and
WHEREAS,the purchase of land, such as the U.S. Sugar property,for conservation
purposes could have allowed the District to shift the flow of water southward, thereby
replenishing the Everglades and contributing to South Florida's drinking water supply, as
well as to build reservoirs and water pollution treatment areas to restore water flows
between Lake Okeechobee and the Everglades; and
WHEREAS, by a unanimous vote, the Governing Board of the District terminated its
option to purchase the land; and
WHEREAS, this example of land acquisition is what Florida voters intended to fund
with the passage of Amendment 1; and
WHEREAS, the Mayor and City Commission strongly urge the State Legislature to
respect the mandate of the overwhelming majority voters who approved Amendment 1 in
2014, and fund the acquisition of land for conservation purposes.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT DULY RESOLVED BY THE MAYOR AND THE CITY
COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, that the Mayor and City
Commission hereby urge the Florida Legislature to honor the intent of the constitutional
amendment adopted by Florida voters in 2014 ("Amendment 1") and appropriate funding
for the acquisition of lands for conservation purposes.
