MIAMI HERALD SUNDAY JUNEIH.2014 I MESA FROM PAGE DA PRIMARY cases, only registered voters with a political party affiliation may vote for candidates from that party. Democrats vote in Democratic primaries, Republicans vote in Re- publican primaries and so forth. That applies to races for Congress, the state legislature, county sheriff and other partisan offices. That means voters reg- istered to minor political parties or those without party affiliation are often restricted in primary elec- tions to voting only in no npartisan races. There are exceptions to that rule. All registered voters can cast their bal- lots in a partisan race if all of the candidates for that office have the same party affiliation and the winner of the primary election will not face any opposi- tion in the general elec- tion. All registered voters can also vote In nonpartisan races in Miami -Dade County for county judges, school board members, county mayor, county commissioners, communi- ty council members and community development district seats. In Broward, there are also nonpartisan races for county judges, school board seats, a community improvement district seat and a community devel- opment district seat.

Here's the final list of candidates CRADLES loeFECAS crabin(mumibnaid.wn, pkcbmfMrdamdrraMcam More than a dozen candidates qualified to run for Miami -Dade County sheriff this year, the first time in more than five decades that voters will elect an inde- pendent top official to lead a department of more than 3,000 sworn police officers. The partisan race, in which qualifying ended at noon Friday, sets the stage for a pair of August primaries to detemsine who vrill be the tint county sheriff since the post was abolished in the 1960s. After the Aug. 20 Re- publican and Democratic primaries, the highest vote -getter in each party will advance to the Nov. 5 general election. The new sheriff will be sworn into office in Jan - As of the noon deadline on Friday, 11 Republicans and four Democrats had qualified for the August primaries. The role of elected sheriff was reintroduced in 2018 when voters ap- proved a statewide amendment to the Flor- ida Constitution. Mimi - Dade County — the only one of Florida's 67 coun- ties not to have an elect- ed sheriff — did away with to position in to 1960s after a pair of cor- ruption scandals. Voters chose to abolish the of- fice in favor of an ap- pointed police adminis- trator.

Hannon Clerk of the Boma Ad No. 4.152.5 PAGE ISA I SUNDAY TUNE 16, 2024 MIAMI HERALD FROM PAGE 13A SUICIDE cilically required under the county -federal consent agreement, is "an answer" to the problems. Repeatedly given murky responses without firm dates, Bloom had to keep saying: "It needs to be open. When is it going to open?" "What's the holdup? I'm not understand- ing." "What needs to be done?" "What's holding up opening this facility?" "What more needs to take place?" "1'd like to see if 1 can under- stand when this facility will be open." "The question 1 certainly have is when is this facility going to be open?" "When do you believe this facility will be open?" "What can this court do to move this along?" Levine Cava said she might not have been as clear as I could be" about how com- plex the project is, but she said she still anticipates an opening by year's end but "Cannot guarantee" it. And 11 it does open in 2024 as planned, she said it would be with "some programming" but not a full use of the 208 beds for which the center at 2200 NW Seventh Ave- is designed. Bloom set another hearing for Oct. 25 at 3 p.m. to get an update. By then, the county will have passed a new bud- get, and the center should be nearing an opening dale. Federal civil rights officials also will have revisited the county jails to check again for compliance with the 2013 Consent decree. The center was proposed years ago by county criminal corm judge Steve Leifman, who took Bloom and others on the tour last November. The idea, which he voiced again in court on Tuesday, is hat potential arrestees would be diverted into the censer to tam thew lives around in- stead of going in and out of he county jails. He believes he center could make a dent In the homeless population, pewell, helping Troubled ople with serious mental illnesses steady themselves. "It's taken a long time to get to this point," he said in the Tuesday hearing, ad- vising that "leadership" is what's needed to get it open. WHATS LEFT TO DO The building's 551 million - plus renovation is nearly complete, but Levine Cava told the judge that the facility still needs a kitchen and furniture. And an operator and an operating plan. And the County Commission must vote on a budget and ward a contract to an oper- ator. County Commissioner Raquel Regaado has agreed t0 sponsor the county legisla- tion, she said. Levine Cava pointed out that even without the center open, the county has been deemed by federal civil rights officals to be "in substantial compliance" with a consent decree on improving care for inmates with mental illness. "1'm proud of the progress we made, and regret any loss of life or serious injury," she said. The most recent suicide caught Bloom's attention. In a lune 3 order to show cause, she demanded county offi- cials appear in her courtroom to explain why the center Isn't open and what they're doing "to prevent additional suicides and to appropriately address the treatment of persons with mental health conditions." Bloom slowly read the timeline of innate D.L. The county medical examiner's office told the Miami Herald that the inmate's name is Daniesqui Lathe Rodriguez. He had a history of alcohol abuse and "appeared in- toxicated-" But he told staff- ers at the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center he wasn't contemplating suicide and had never tried killing himself. He appeared anxious, with "family problems, financial problems, and housing prob- lems," a report to the court says. He was placed in a detox unit. After his court appearance the next day, he told the nurse that court "did not go well and his stomach was hurting," the report recounts. The nurse offered him Tums and breathing exercises, a half-hour of observation and offered to contact a therapist for hint. He told her he was "not crazy" and declined her offers Less than four hours later, he was found hanging from his bed sheet in his cell. His suicide was one of two in the Miami -Dade County jails in 2023, a jails spokes- man The prior year, five inmates committed suicide. There've been no jail suicides this year, spokesman loan Diasgranados said. Bloom said the earlier 2023 suicide involved an inmate on work release who went into a bathroom, took off his pants and hanged himself with the clothing while under the control of Miami-Dade's corrections department. He'd gotten some bad news that no one realized, Bloom said she was told. But in this case, the innate told jail personnel he felt he'd had a bad morning in court. Leifman told judge Bloom in the Tuesday hearing that Rodriguez might not have met criteria for the proposed mental health facility. But, he said, when the center opens and reduces the county jail population, jail employees will be able to do thew jobs better— a scenario that could help an inmate like Rodri- gaeL Although the county re- viewed Rodriguez'.s suicide and found it unprevemable, some changes were made, a report to the federal court says: Inmates with risk fac- tors will be seen by a mental health professional right after then court appearances, even if they decline help, and they won't be immediately paced in a cell. Cameras were in- stalled in the detox housing, and bedding in that unit is now "suicide safe." An extra window was added to the dons in the cells in the unit.

FROM PAGE BA CONDO BILL profile cases like the Miami Beach Carillon dispute — where for years residents and the owner of the hotel and spa have battled in court over who owns common areas — disagrees that developers would take better care of the properties than the condo asso- ciations, saying the associations are ore personally invested in the prop- erties but often delegate their man- agement to licensed professional organizations. "Imagine you're living in a condo- minium building and all you own is the air rights of your unit. You don't own your front door. You have no tights to have ownership or control or maintenance of your lobbies, your elevators, your hallways, none of that. That's all controlled by a developer, and they could control it forever," Pardo said. "It doesn't make any Pardo also said he believes the bill could apply much more broadly to even purely residential buildings, giving developers control of every- thing except for the condo units themselves. But Mark Grant, a real estate at- torney and consultant for Hotel Caril- lon in the Miami Beach dispute whose idea it was to make the specific changes that were eventually added to HB 1021, wrote to the Herald/ Times in an email that Pardo was mistaken in his reading of the bill. "The bottom line as to why Mr. Pardo s statement is not correct i5 that there is absolutely no reason why a developer would want to retain title to and control what is customarily common elements in a residential condominium," Grant said. "In a residential condominium the developer wants to sell all the units and after 90% of the units are sold, the developer wants nothing more to do with the common elements," he added. "There is no profit incentive to keep control of them. ,.. Operating the common elements is just a burden." Grant said that mixed -used condo buildings under the new law "must have a disclosure summary that sum - anus the structure and informs buyers that the association will not control the building. Buyers are free to buy or not buy a unit in this type of product." "As for 'Pardo's] statement that the association is better able to take care of the structure, I give the Surf side tragedy as an example of why that is not accurate," Grant said. After the Champlain Towers collapsed in Surf - side in 2021, lawmakers concluded that part of the blame was on the condominium association, which had deferred structural repairs on the building, In 2022, they updated the law to require structural integrity reserve studies that would detail how much money associations needed to set aside for those repairs. The issue of who controls common — the condo units' owners and theiir associations or the developer — has been at the center of several South Florida lawsuits, with courts recently deciding in favor of the unit owners. The late added provisions in HB 1021 would change that dynamic, threatening to upend lawsuits still making their way through tours because it applies retroactively. After the Herald/Times' last story ran on these disputed provisions in HB 1021, one condo association presi-dent with a stake in the matter tried to reach out to the bill sponsor, Rep. Vicki Lopez, a Miami Republican. Richard Ortoli is president of the condominium association that is su- ing Epic Hotel, which controls the high -end Epic Residences in Down town Miami, over alleged overcharges for shared facilities. Ortoli told the Herald/Times that the unit owners were footing too much of the bill to renovate shared spaces in that building like the hotel lobby and not getting any of the pro- fit. "This arbitrary allocation of ex- penses, even if it is provided for in the condominium documents, is incred- ibly abusive," Ortoli said. Ortoli was unsuccessful in reaching Lopez but did meet remotely with her staff on May 22 to go over his con- cerns It didn't appear to go well, per a follow-up email Ortoli wrote to her staff two days later on which he co- pied the Herald/Times. "We have not had any meaningful explanation from Rep. Lopez as to why she defends these provisions and she will inevitably become embroiled in a controversy that will do nothing o enhance her reputation as a de' fender of the rights of the condomini- um owners in Miami and else- where in Florida," Ortoli wrote to Lopez' legislative aide, Alessandro Marchesani. Lopez could not be reached for comment Her aide, Marchesani, said in an email that she Was "currently flying to Israel and will be bock at the beginning of July to speak on HB 1021." On lune 11, Ortoli entailed the Herald/Times an update. "We are hopeful that the more egregious provisions of HB 1021 wit be addressed by amendments," Oroll wrote. "If the law is not amended, suing will definitely bean option." cow Omni OMNI REDEVELOPMENT DISTRICT COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING The Board of Commissioners ("Board") of the Omni Redevelopment DHtrict Community Redevelopment Agency ("CRK) will hold a Public Hearing on Tuesday, lune 18th, at 9:30 am or anytime thereafter in the City Commission chambers located at Miami City Hall, 3500 Pan American Drive.
