ENCLOSURES.
November 26th Meeting
"It is recommended that the City
Commission approve the attached
resolution authorizing the City
Manager to amend, in a form
acceptable to the City Attorney, a
contract dated August 23, 1985 with
the Miami -Dade Trade and Tourism
Commission, Inc. (MDTTC) whereby
the contract amount is increased
from $18,750 to $75,000, and
whereby the contract expiration
date is extended from October 31,
1985 to January 31, 1986; further
authorizing the City Manager to
convey to the MDTTC $56,250 from
the Special Programs and Accounts,
a Contingent Fund."
On July 25, 1985, the City Commission approved Resolution
No. 85-853
authorizing the City Manager to execute an agreement in
the amount
of $18,750 for three months (based on the prior year's
budget of
$75,000) with the Miami Dade Trade and Tourism Commission,
Inc.
(MDTTC). The contract was to cover the period of August
1, 1985 to
October 31, 1985 during which time the City of Miami and MDTTC would
a seek to identify additional sources of financing for
the MDTTC.
Accordingly, a contract was signed on August 23, 1985.
The MDTTC has made a budget request of $305,000 to the City of Miami
for the period of August 1, 1985 to July 31, 1986. This request is
considerably beyond the $75,000 yearly contract previously provided
by the City of Miami Commission to MDTTC for the past two years.

The Honorable
Members of the
Page 2
Mayor and
City Commission
The City of Miami has initiated contact with the Tourist Industry
Coalition (TIC) on behalf of the MDTTC in order to request that the
TIC consider allocating funds to the MDTTC from the bed tax revenues
which the TIC receives from the City. The MDTTC also expects to
receive funds from Metropolitan Dade County. However, supplemental
funds from the County beyond September 30, 1985 have not been
committed.
The approval of an amendment to the MDTTC contract would provide the
MDTTC with the remaining $56,250 of the $75,000 allocated for the
twelve month funding period, would allow the MDTTC to maintain its
initiatives as originally planned regarding the proposed $305,000
budget, and would allow the MDTTC to negotiate with the TIC and
Metropolitan Dade County in order to identify the remaining funds
required for the MDTTC to satisfy its funding requirements for the
fiscal period from February 1, 1986 to July 31, 1986.
