Teele, Jr. and Members of the CRA Board From: rank . �Rolla;cn CRA Executive Director RECOMMENDATION: Date: February 18, 2003 File: Subject: Margaret Pace Park Three -Year Pilot Program References: Enclosures: Resolution It is respectfully recommended that the CRA Board of Directors adopt the attached resolution authorizing the Executive Director to coordinate with the City of Miami Parks and recreation Department, as a part of a three year pilot program at Margaret Pace Park, in the hiring of a full time employee who will be assigned to said park; further requiring that this position will function under the authority of the City of Miami Parks and Recreation Department and subject to the policies within same; further requiring that the total cost of salary and benefits for this position should not exceed $30,000 annually except for increases related to the City's Bargaining Unit Agreement(s) if a full time civil service position is utilized. JUSTIFICATION: The opening of the renovated Margaret Pace Park has literally caused a renaissance in the outdoor activity of the entire surrounding neighborhood; which only proves the point that "if you build it, they will come!" The intent of this pilot program is to provide the staff necessary to accomplish a further expanded, more organized, use of the park facilities to augment the amenities of the surrounding hotels, businesses, and condominiums. By having a full time, on site, contact person it will become more feasible for the surrounding businesses to intertwine their activities with the use of the park as part of the overall program. We envision tents being erected to host various outdoor activities for conventions and .various other inside -building based operations. The park is a natural partner with the surrounding businesses, to both enhance their program, but to also allow the businesses to give back to the park in a symbiotic relationship which would personify a true public/private venture.
