ANALYSIS
-----------
Between the last meeting on July 26, 2017, and the first regularly scheduled meeting on September
13, 2017, the City Commission will not be in session. During this period there may be bids or
contracts in excess of the $50,000, which may need to be rejected, awarded, or terminated.
Based on the above, it is requested, that the City Manager, or his designee, be authorized to sign all
contracts, agreements, and grant applications; renew any existing contracts and terminate existing
contracts, as needed, from the last Commission meeting on July 26, 2017, until the first regularly
scheduled Commission meeting on September 13, 2017, subject to ratification by the City
Commission at its first regularly scheduled meeting on September 13, 2017.
Since this authorization is necessary to ensure that essential services and projects continue during
the period between the last Commission meeting on July 26, 2017, until the first regularly scheduled
Commission meeting on September 13, 2017, it is recommended that the Mayor and City
Commission adopt this Resolution.
CONCLUSION
I am requesting authorization from the Mayor and City Commission of the City of Miami Beach,
Florida, to allow myself, or my designee, to select, negotiate, award and reject all bids, contracts,
agreements, and grant applications; renew existing contracts which may expire; and terminate
existing contracts, as needed, from the last commission meeting on July 26, 2017, until the first
