ANALYSIS
Section 2.04 of the Miami Beach City Charter states that, "The City Commission shall meet at such
times as may be prescribed by ordinance or resolution." On November 19, 2014, the City
Commission adopted Resolution 2014-28842, setting the dates forthe 2015 Commission meetings.
Said resolution set the September 2015 meeting date for Wednesday, September 9, 2015.
Pursuant to Florida Statute S 200.065 (2)(e)2, the City may not schedule the public hearing on the
proposed operating millage rate and tentative budget for FY 2015/16 on the same day as the budget
hearing for Miami-Dade County or the School Board of Miami-Dade County. The School Board has
announced that it will hold its budget hearing on September 9. Therefore, the Administration
proposes that the Wednesday, September 9,2015 Commission meeting be moved to Wednesday
September 2,2015 to avoid a conflict. When selecting September 2,2015 as the proposed new
meeting date, the Administration took into consideration, amongst other things, that there were no
Federal or Religious holidays that conflict.
An additional benefit of changing the September Commission date to September 2,2015 is that it will
allow the City additional time to consider placing Charter Amendments and Non-Charter Questions
on the November 3,2015 General Election ballot. The deadline to submit such Election Resolution(s)
to the Supervisor of Elections is no later than September 4, 2015. (See attached LTC # 112-2015.)
As it currently stands, the last regular meeting dates prior to the September 4 Department of Election
deadline are July 8,2015 (Commission Meeting) and July 29, 2015 (Presentation & Awards Meeting).
A change of the September Commission Meeting date to September 2,2015 will give the City an
additional 35 days (from July 29 to September 2) to consider ballot questions for placement on the
November 3,2015 General Election.
CONCLUSION
The Administration recommends that the Mayor and City Commission approve the change.
