Odlo City Manager Recommendation DATE : MAY - c- I092 FILE SUBJECT : Ordinance to Authorize Expenditure of Funds Relating to the Homeless REFERENCES: ENCLOSURES: It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached Ordinance authorizing the City Manager to expend an amount not to exceed $45,000 from the Special Revenue Fund entitled, "Homeless Project," Project Number 192001, Index Number 261001, as the City of Miami's match to Metro -Dade County, for the provision of substance abuse beds to be made available to the homeless, as part of the joint City/County Homeless Assistance Program. BacKground On September 11, 1991, the City Commission approved Ordinance Number 10914, which established a Special Revenue fund for the City of Miami's component of the Community Homeless Assistance Plan. The Ordinance also appropriated $90,000 to that fund. On January 23, 1992, the City Commission approved Ordinance Number 10944, which amended Ordinance Number 10914, by appropriating an additional $250,000 to the "Homeless Project" fund, for the implementation of the joint City/County effort to relocate approximately 125 to 150 homeless persons from the area under I-395 (under lease by DOSP) and Lummus Park. The joint City/County effort came about as a result of a Federal Court Order which was issued on December 12, 1991, by Judge Clyde C. Atkins. The order was issued at a special hearing at which Judge Atkins ruled that the City may fence and vacate the above mentioned I-395 area and Lummus Park sites, if it provided those homeless persons currently residing at each of the aforementioned sites with comparable or better shelter. The City of Miami and Metro -Dade County each contributed $250,000 toward this effort. In January of 1992, the joint City/County program commenced. A number of the clients seen by program staff were identified as having substance -abuse problems, and in need of specialized placement. Metro -Dade County already has the mechanism in place to contract with the appropriate social service providers, that are needed to handle substance -abuse clients. 10989 5-J Hon. Mayor and Members of City Commission Page Two It is therefore respectfully requested that the City Manager be authorized to transfer $45,000 of the City's "Homeless Project" funds, already appropriated for use to implement the homeless project, to the County, as the City's financial match for the provision of specialized beds for the homeless. cc: Leon Firtel, Assistant City Attorney Sergio Rodriguez, Assistant City Manager MIAMI REVIEW Published Daily except Saturday, Sunday and Legal Holidays Miami, Dade County, Florida.
