Purpose of Item: An ordinance of the Miami City Commission amending Chapter 36 of the City Code, Miami Florida, entitled "Noise" more particularly by amending section 36, entitled "Construction Equipment", by providing for the City Manager to select a designee. Background Information: Section 36-6 of the Code of the City of Miami, as amended, Miami, Florida ("City Code") prohibits the use of certain construction equipment between the hours of 6 p.m. and 8 a.m. the following day; and the use of construction equipment during the prohibited hours may be necessary to eliminate or reduce any dangerous or hazardous condition which endangers life or property. Section 36-6(c) of the City Code currently grants the City Manager the authority to permit the use of construction equipment during the prohibited time periods; and the City has seen increased construction in recent years and, as a result, an increase in the number of requests for noise waivers. The City Code should be amended to allow the City Manager to select a designee to authorize the use of construction equipment during the prohibited hours.
