Committee made additional recommendations requiring further
action. . Hereinbelow please find an outline of said additional
recommendations, as well as present status of each
recommendation:
A. ADDITIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS IMPACTING ON CERTAIN
DESIGNATED BOARDS AND/OR COMMITTEES:
At the meeting of March 24th, the Review Committee submitted
additional recommendations for the Commission's consideration
regarding certain designated boards and/or committees. Upon
adoption of Resolution 94-219,'the City Commission accepted and
adopted said Additional Recommendations. Of the twelve (12)
additional recommendations outlined (incorporated by Resolution

S
94- 305

24th, copy attached) restructured the following committees and/or
Commission(s):

* the Commission on the Status of Women; and
* the "Tax -Exempt Property Steering Committee.
[RECOMMENDATIONS WERE ACCEPTED AND THE ABOVE COMMITTEES
WERE RESTRUCTURED AND INCORPORATED BY R-94-183. -- ISSUE
RESOLVED]
There were five (5) other recommendations addressing the
hereinbelow listed boards and/or authorities, as follows:
1. OVERTOWN ADVISORY BOARD- The recommendation was to expand
its scope and purpose to include all issues affecting or
impacting the Overtown area. [NOTE: LAW DEPARTMENT
ADVISES THAT AGREEMENT HAS BEEN REACHED ON THIS
RECOMMENDATION. IT WAS INCORPORATED AS PART OF THE PRESENT
GUIDELINES INCORPORATED BY RESOLUTION 94-219 - BUT ISSUE
REMAINS UNRESOLVED.]
2. OFF-STREET PARKING AUTHORITY/COCONUT GROVE PARKING
ADVISORY- This additional recommendation stipulates that
the Off -Street Parking Authority should create a
subcommittee to incorporate the Coconut Grove. Parking
Advisory in order that it may become a subcommittee of the
Off -Street Parking Authority. [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: NO DECISION HAS BEEN TAKEN AS YET ON THIS
RECOMMENDATION - ISSUE REMAINS UNRESOLVED.]
4. INTERNATIONAL TRADE BOARD- The Review Committee
recommended that the ITB Special Committee Internal Audit
Report be approved. [NOTE: Said report was accepted and
approved by Resolution 94-219. ISSUE RESOLVED.]
5.
will require a combination of the purposes, powers
these two (2) boards should be merged: Said merger
and
94- 305
duties of both boards. The City Attorney's office will
need to conduct a careful review of the Ordinance creating
each board and meet with appropriate Administration
personnel in order to properly accomplish the proposed
merger. [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, inasmuch as said date did not provide the
necessary time to allow for two (2) readings of the
Ordinance, agreement was reached to make "April 25, 1994"
the effective date of Ordinance 11130 . [ISSUE RESOLVED.]
2. COMPENSATION OF BOARD AND COMMITTEE MEMBERS. The Review
Committee recommends that:
(a) The City Commission should eliminate all health
insurance benefits provided for all board and committee
members. [NOTE: THIS RECOMMENDATION HAS NOT BEEN DISCUSSED
OR RESOLVED AS OF YET.]
(b) The City Commission should review the issue of
compensation to board and committee members with the view of
either reducing or eliminating said compensation. [NOTE:
THIS RECOMMENDATION HAS NOT BEEN DISCUSSED OR RESOLVED AS OF
YET.]
III. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE
CREATION OF NEW BOARDS AND
COMMITTEES:
The Review Committee further recommended that three (3) new
committees be created, namely, the:
(1) City of Miami Property and Asset Review Committee
[COMMITTEE CREATED, ISSUE RESOLVED].
(2) Budget and Financial Review Committee [COMMITTEE
CREATED - ISSUE RESOLVED].
(3) Select Committee on Unified Development Projects
[ISSUE UNRESOLVED]
94- 305 7
The Review Committee's recommendations for the creation of
Committees number (1) and (2), above, were accepted and the
Committees were created.
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.
(b) MEMBERSHIP/APPOINTED BY- The recommended membership for
this Committee will be seven (7) members. Five (5) members
to be appointed by the City Commission, and two (2)
appointments to be made by the City Manager.
(c) CITY LIAISON- The recommendation was to have the Director
of Asset Management as the liaison to this committee.
[NOTE: ISSUE UNRESOLVED]
Attached hereto please find individual interoffice memoranda
addressing certain designated City Boards and/or Committees
concerning their present composition and membership, in
order that the City Commission may individually address, the
appointment/reappointment of new members.
