RE: Resolution -November , 2003 City Commission Meeting
Mandated election . appointment of City Attorney (File No. 03-0181)
Pursuant to Section 4 of the Charter of the City of Miami, Florida, as amended, the City
Commission appoints the City Attorney at the first meeting following a general municipal or run-
off election(s) at which the Mayor and/or Commissioners are elected to office. The next
scheduled City Commission meeting following the general municipal election is November 13,
2003.
A General Municipal Election is scheduled on November 4, 2003, to elect one of the two
candidates who have filed and qualified for the office of District 2 Commissioner. No elections
will be held for the election of Districts 1 and 4 Commissioners, as the incumbent Commissioners
for said Districts had no opposition so neither a general municipal nor run-off election is
warranted.
Accordingly, I have drafted the attached resolution which provides for the election and
reappointment of the City Attorney to comply with said City Charter provision and have
transmitted same to the Agenda Coordinator for placement on the November 13, 2003 Agenda.
