FUNDING FOR INNEKCITY PARKS IMPROVEMENTS. LEGISLATIVE/ Funding _cutbacks from all governmental sources FUNDING have resulted in deterioration of local public ISSUE recreational ac 1 ties and pro_�grams�..This is part cu arly true in the Innercity where fewer privately run facilities exist, and residents are less able to afford such use or travel any distance to reach public parks. The loss of such opportunities contributes to the decrease community — and familial artici at on in recreational and social act vit es, and a loss of pride and involvement in those resources that remain. This has a twofold impact in the neighborhood: residents are open to less constructive uses of their leisure time, and parks become targets for abuse and home to the criminal elements. PROPOSED An appropriation of $1,150,000.00 from the State ACTION to fund capital improvements to Miami's innercity parks, and the immediate operational needs of the renovated facilities. Five key innercity parks have been identified for improvements. Those are: Allapattah-Comstock, Simpson, Moore, Kinloch and Lummus. RESULTS Additional funding for innercity parks will EXPECTED further Miami's local efforts of more than $15 WHEN PASSED million for the Neighborhood Parks Renovation Program. In addition, it will assist Miami in meeting its planned objectives under its proposed comprehensive plan. Most importantly it will immediately address the critical need for positive recreational opportunities and programs in depressed areas of the City. RESULTS Innercity parks will continue to deteriorate, EXPECTED IF and programs will be curtailed. Unless these NOT PASSED resources receive prompt and effective attention they may be lost to the community permanently.. Further, without a significant and demonstrated commitment to the innercity by government, residents in the area, will continue to experience current social and economic problems. = Park facilities and programs would be in jeopardy.

EAYPRONT PARK MANAGEMENT TRUST EMERGENCY CRIME PREVENTION PROJECT LEGISLATIVE/ Bayfront Park, located in downtown Miami is a FUNDING unique facility that offers Miami area citizens ISSUE and visitors a series of cultural and civic events featuring local_ productions and artists as well as other nationally and Internationally recognized stars. Because of the nature of the entire Bayfront complex, with its park area, retail shops, restaurants and marina, it is conducive to attracting large, varied and mobile. crowds. Unfortunately, that will include some persons with criminal orientation. With the large crowds, available safety equipment is insufficient to provide the safest environment. PROPOSED An appropriation of $241,500 is needed by the ACTION Bayfront Park Management Trust to purchase a 5,000 linear foot (8' high)• perimeter fence, additional safety lights permanent and temporary), a man lift for high reach areas, and a dimmer board for existing amphitheater house lights. RESULTS The proposed crime prevention measures will keep EXPECTED large crowds within the designated walkways, WHEN PASSED allowing for the safe flow of people and for a better supervision and protection by police and fire departments. Park areas will be well - lighted greatly reducing the criminal risk factor, and increasing personal safety. Audiences at the amphitheater will be protected from unwanted intrusions of gangs and vandals. The Park will develop a positive reputation as a local attraction for families, residents and tourists to visit. RESULTS EXPECTED IF NOT PASSED FUNDING It could greatly impair the full use of the amphitheater and park, projecting a negative image of Miami, diminishing the flow of customers, with a resultant loss of revenue. $241,500.00.

C LYRIC THEATER IN OVERTO T LEGISLATIVEI The restoration to date of the L ry_ic.Theater has FUNDING been a consolidated and cooperative effort ISSUE between the Florida Bureau of Historic Preservation, the City of Miami, and the Black Archives History and Research Foundation of South Floridat Inc.

An additional 143,000.00 was provided by the City of Miami through Community Development Block Grant funds. Black Archives has provided in -kind services, and has initiated a local fund-raising effort. The Lyric was constructed in 1915 by African American entrepreneur Geder Walker.

They would like to begin with the Lyric Theatre which is the oldest remaining legitimate theatre in the Miami area. This theatre not only has.' recieved national historic designation, but also serves as the anchor -building for the Historic Overtown Folklife Villiage. by appropriating the necessary funds, the BAF would be able to t .preserve this building, which would not only serve the South _Florida community, but also serve the entire state as well, once`-- - restored, it will not only be a testimonial to Miami's Overtown ,.

Located in the designated Historic Overtown Folklife Village, the theatre is an important project to the revitalization of the downtown/Overtown area and,. sadly, one of the few remaining significant historic buildings in that area.

An apparent unanticipated problem surfaced with respect to the tr jurisdiction of the Circuit Court, which, it is believed, was brought about by the 1987 Amendments to the Landlord Tenant Act. Y The City selected the Circuit Court because its request for deficiency judgment was over 59000.00. The tenant argued that possessory actions could only be brow ht in the County oz 1 Court pursuant to Section 34.011. Because of the unclarity and apparent conflict between s. 34.011 and the 1987 Amendments, the City was forced to defend a Petition for a Writ of Prohibition in the Appellate Court. PROPOSED Amend s. 34.011, F.S., to provide for ACTION jurisdiction of landlord tenant cases to be in the Circuit Court in certain circumstances. RESULTS Both the trial court and the Appellate Court EXPECTED upheld the jurisdiction of the Circuit Court, WHEN PASSED although a clear indication of why was not given. This legislation will clarify once and for all that the Circuit Court will be the court of jurisdiction in these types of cases. RESULTS Continued confusion as to the appropriate court EXPECTED IF of jurisdiction causing continued litigation in NOT PASSED these types of cases.

The ISSUE last increase granted byt -h_ e Sta£e,''however, Was in 1' 99 �3. Thus, even though costshave escalated about 0% (Consumer price index increase)7, `the City has not been able to increase the license tax accordingly. For example, a City lieen inspector Was.paid $14,5 0 in 1981, but todaE_s paid 22, 4b4, an ncrease of -5.-I f . PROPOSED Amend s. 205.043, F.S., to increase the ACTION- occupational license tax in two _chases. First. a one-time ad stsent - inFY 192 to permit municipalities -to catch up W th increased costs over the past eight years, keeping:-. with the consumer price index. SecondL an- aririvail ad3ustment thereafter based upon the increase in the consumer price index f'ar the previous year. nr,SULTS ii asscd %�s, �rir�iu:icd�. _thc _ Cit,y would hava EXPECTED one-time�in'crease in license taxes 'of 'abou_ � t $1.$ WHEN PASSED million' 'In''Fi 1992, ..(based upon this year's current fee billings). Additionally, in each subsequent .year there would be an increase in revenue available to the City. Prior annual increases would have averaged about 200,000. 00 per year. RESULTS Occupational license revenue will not increase, EXPECTED IF btit co'sts'* io" the *City will_as " negotiated - NOT PASSED raises take effect, and as general costs rise. To balance the budget an ad valorem tax 'increase may be necessary, although"the 10 mil cap s near at hand. Auditing staff may have to _be reduced, auditing of license compliance will be reduced, which will further reduce revenue from this source. ITEM FIREWORKS: ILLEGAL VOSSESSIONy_SELLING, SHIPPING . LEGISLATIVE/ Every year millions of dollars in fire loss FUNDING occur in the United States as a result of ISSUE fireworks accidents, and in each ,of the last five yearsi fireworks accidents have caused an average__ of 10 400 emergency roomW" treated Injuries. In 19d9 one-fourth of all fireworks injuries involved ch 1 ren under the age, of �ten and sparklers accounted for three, -fourths of all fireworks injuries to children under the age of five. Section 791.04 F.S. permits registered manufacturers, stributors and wholesalers to purchase any type of fireworks, provided that the same is shipped directly out of the state. However, there is no time frame specified for that shipping out of state. Section 791.05, F.S., permits seizures of all fireworks found in violation of Chapter 791, but does not address their disposal. PROPOSED Amend S. 791.029 F.S.,'to prohibit the sale of ACTION fireworks including_ sparklers to youth 12 years of age and under. Amend s. 791.049 F.S., to provide that shipment of fireworks out of state by registered manufacturers, distributors or wholesalers must be made within 48 hours of purchase. Amend S. 791.05, F.S., to require that seized fireworks be destroyed within 90 days of seizure. RESULTS The number of fireworks injuries to younger EXPECTED people will be reduced, as will the number of WHEN PASSED other injuries and fires caused by fireworks. Registered manufacturers,, distributors or wholesalers will have to ship out of state within 48 hours so that storage will not be a safety problem, and other selling temptations will _not be present. Seizing and destroying Illegal fireworks will remove dangerous fireworks from the market place, will place a financial hardship on the dealer and act as a deterrent to the selling of illegal fireworks. RESULTS Under aged youth will still be able to purchase EXPECTED IF potentially dangerous fireworks including NOT PASSED sparklers, and an illegal fireworks market will continue to thrive, with the continued threat of injury and death to Florida residents, and the destruction of their property. ITEM' FLOEINQ A POLICE OFFICER LEGISLATIVE/ The wanton, thought-out intent to avoid Capture FUNDING Oy_ flee_id ^ in a _vehicle _ from _a police officer, ISSUE 1� aces the cotnmunft and• the off3cir- - fn extremely dangerous situations, as many of tfie v c'tiaaes eniiy+ in accidents, often involving innocent citizens, and. sometimes resulting in their deaths. If the chase is not pursued, 'the criminal is free to continue his threat to society. The current penalty associated with the chase is not representative of the potential danger, nor does it equate with the penalty for fleeing _in a boat from a law enforcement officer '(s.r Uje- g F.S.). Fleeing in a vehicle is a misdemeanor`o the f rst degree, whil�leeing in a boat is a felony of the third degree. PROPOSED Amend s. 316.1935 F.S. to make the penalty for ACTION Fleeing_ in a vehicle from a police o-- freer a felony of the third degree. RESULTS A more stringent penalty for fleeing a police EXPECTED officer will diminish the number of vehicle WHEN PASSED chases, and the resultant of accidents caused by fleeing _number vehicles. ' RESULTS The number of persons i_n_ vehicles from EXPECTED IF _fleeing_ police_- officers will continue, possibly - NOT PASSED inr_reasing, thsreby endangering innocent citizens and the pursuing officer. 0 ITEM ILLEGAL LOTTERY PROHIBITED LEGISLATIVE/ Current policy permits the withholding of _FUNDING adjudication dication when an individualfguilty ISSUE under s.�4F.S.•LotterProhibited. Bookmaking s. 9.250 F.S., on the other hand states, _Notwithstanding the provisions of s. 91 r6T, any person convicted under the provisions of this subsection shall not have adjudication o gu t suspended,_ deferred, or withheld." The discrepancy between these two statutes opens the door for those so inclined to conduct an illega37 lottery for personal gain, while possible reducing potential revenue from the State's legal lottery, knowing that adjudication of guilt can be suspended, deferred, or withheld. PROPOSED Amend s. 849.09, F.S., to include the words, ACTION "Notwithstanding the provisions of s. 948.01, any person convicted under the provisions of this subsection shall not have adjudication of guilt suspended, deferred, or withheld. RESULTS Individuals who are found guilty under s. EXPECTED 49.09, and are adjudicated guilty will refrain WHEN PASSED from continuing their operations or face severe penalties on subsequent convictions. i RESULTS The number of illegal lottery operations will EXPECTED IF continue, or increase, as will the number of NOT PASSED individuals participating in such dealings, thereby possibly reducing potential revenue from the State's lottery.
