COMMISSION MEMORANDUM
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission
FROM: Rafael E. Granado, City Clerk
DATE: December 11, 2019
SUBJECT:A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, SETTING THE DATES FOR THE YEAR 2020
CITY COMMISSION MEETINGS. JOINT CITY COMMISSION AND
REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the Resolution..
ANALYSIS
Pursuant to Section 2.04 of the Miami Beach City Charter, the City Commission shall meet at
such times as may be prescribed by ordinance or resolution.
The City Clerk recommends that when preparing the City Commission meeting calendar, the
City Commission take into consideration the following events: U.S. Conference of Mayors; Art
Basel; ICMA Conference; August recess; September to set the tentative/final millage and
budget approval; November for election/runoff election meetings (if it is an election year); and
Federal (Attachment A) & Religious Holidays (Attachment B).
In order to make the City Commission meetings more efficient and prevent residents from
spending multiple hours waiting for a time certain item to be heard, Mayor Philip Levine
proposed in 2013 that presentations and awards only meetings be scheduled at different times
throughout the year. By placing the presentations and awards on an alternate meeting date, the
regular City Commission meetings will start business on time, which will increase the likelihood
that time certain agenda items are taken up at the time listed, or closely thereafter. Additionally,
having a designated Presentations and Awards Commission meeting will provide the City
Commission with an opportunity to properly acknowledge and show gratitude to those
individuals or groups who have taken an active role in serving our community. If needed, the
Presentations and Awards Commission meeting may be utilized for items that are deemed
emergencies and/or continued or not reached during the previous Commission meeting. On
those months without a separate Presentations and Awards meeting, the Presentations &
Awards items will be heard at 5:00 p.m.
The City Clerk suggests that when scheduling the 2020 City Commission meeting dates, the
City Commission accomplish four goals: 1)schedule one City Commission meeting a month; 2)
Page 434 of 720
schedule at least three separate Presentations and Awards/Commission meetings per year
(five are being proposed); 3) schedule Commission meetings on Wednesdays; and 4) not
schedule Commission meetings during the month of August, while the City Commission is in
recess.
It is recommended that the City Commission meetings be set as follows:
Commission Meetings Presentations &Awards/Commission Meetings
Starts at 8:30 a.m. Starts at 5:00 p.m.
January 15 (Wednesday) P&Awill be heard in the January 15 meeting
February 12 (Wednesday) February 26 (Wednesday)
March 11 (Wednesday) March 18 (Wednesday)
April 22 (Wednesday) P&A will be heard in the April 22 meeting
May 13 (Wednesday) May 27 (Wednesday)
June 24 (Wednesday) P&A will be heard in the June 24 meeting
July 29 (Wednesday) P&A will be heard in the July 29 meeting
August- City Commission in recess
September 9 (Wednesday)
September Budget Meeting -TBA
October 14 (Wednesday) October 28 (Wednesday)
November 18 (Wednesday) P&Awill be heard in the November 18 meeting
December 9 (Wednesday) P&A will be heard in the December 9 meeting
CONCLUSION
The City Clerk recommends that the Mayor and City Commission approve the City Commission
meeting dates and the Presentations &Awards/Commission meeting dates for 2020.
Upon approval of the Commission meeting dates, an after the fact Resolution will be drafted.
