[NOTE: NO DECISION HAS BEEN TAKEN AS YET ON THIS RECOMMENDATION - REMAINS UNRESOLVED.] 3. MIAMI SPORTS AND EXHIBITION AUTHORITY- The Review Committee recommended that a policy decision should be taken placing greater emphasis on the Authority's total purpose, i.e. the Authority should place greater concentration on the "Exhibition" aspect of its mission.

[NOTE: ISSUE REMAINS UNRESOLVED.] B. GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. EFFECTIVE DATE OF "SUNSETTING" OF BOARDS AND COMMITTEES MEMBERSHIP. The committee also recommended the sunsetting of all current board and committee members as of the April lst.

However, the recommendation for the creation of Committee number (3) above, namely, the "Select Committee on Unified Development Projects," still remains unresolved. Said Committee would be charged with reviewing proposals submitted to the City in response to Requests for Proposals which would be issued by the City concerning Unified Development Projects. Therefore, it would involve a referendum, since UDP's require a Charter amendment. The City Attorney's Office will need additional time in order to carefully draft appropriate language which will withstand any possible challenges. (a) PURPOSE- Its purpose will be to review proposals submitted to the City in response to Requests for Proposals (RFPs) issued by the City for a Unified Development Project, and to make recommendations to the City Commission.
