commissioner Jorge Exposito
Former commissioner Jorge Exposito is a beloved neighbor in our city. Over his many decades of
residency in Miami Beach , Jorge has contributed to the betterment of our schools, parks, and community
as a whole. ln 2009, Jorge was elected to the City Commission. During his tem1 of service, Jorge made
great personal sacrifices to fulfill his commitment to the residents, a responsibility he did not take lightly,
and which led him to place the interest of the public ahead of his own .
Recognizing the invaluable contributions of this caring and humble leader, yesterday, I stated and
entertained the following motion, moved by Vice Chair Gabriel Paez, seconded by committee member
Frankie Trullenque, and approved by a unanimous vote of committee members present:
A motion of the Hispanic Affairs Committee requesting that the City Commission
identify an appropriate interior portion of the existing Par 3 and proposed Community
Park to be permanently named and dedicated in honor of the Honorable Jorge R.
Exposito who served as a Miami Beach City Commissioner from 2009 to 2013.
I respectfully request your assistance and guidance to ensure that this request advances through the proper
committee(s) and legislative process in a timely manner. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you
have any questions regarding this motion.
Thank you.
