To save money in 2026, MetnoConnect will drop some low -ridership zones, trim operating hours and impose a flume -mile capon trips, said Natalia Jaramillo, communications director for Levine Cava. Launched in 2020 as a way to cover gaps in bus service, MetroConnect allows people to book rides to a limited number of destinations within desig- nated zones, including South Dade, Kendall and North Dade. Levine Cava initially proposed eliminat- ing the service as part of a broader plan to close what she said was a $402 million revenue gap that Miami - Dade was facing in the 2026 budget year, which begins Oct. 1, Levine Cava had walked back the bulk of her pro- posed cuts In the lead up to the commission's first budget hearing, which started on Sept. 4 and stretched into the next morning as charity leaders pleaded for more funding and commissioners pressed the administration to find more savings. The commission's final budget votes are scheduled for Thursday after another public hearing, which be- gins at 5 pm. at the Ste- phen P. Clack Government Center in downtown Mia- mi. With the memo released Friday, Levine Cava backed off several more austerity measures. Those include: Restoring current funding levels to charity grants. Jewish Community Services, Farm Share and other nonprofits providing social services received a combined $17 million from Miami -Dade this year. For the 2026 budget, Levine Cava, a former social work- er, initially proposed elim- inating most charity fund- ing. She backed off that plan, saying there was money to fund grants at 70% of their 2025 levels. In her latest memo, Levine Cava said her budget now offers grants equal to their 2025 amounts. Eliminating the re- maining cut In arts fund- ing. While the mayor pro- posed cutting arts and culture grants by $13 mil- lion in July, she restored most of that funding last month in a revised spend- ing proposal. On Friday, the remaining$1.3 million was put back in her budget. Malting rescue hel- icopters a countywide expense. Miami-Dade's fire union fought Levine Cava over her plan to stop using a countywide proper- ty tax to fund four Fire Rescue helicopters that land throughout Miami - Dade.

On Friday, Levine Cava scrapped her plan and moved the $28 million helicopter expense back into the countywide bud- get.

Hannon Clerk of the Board 4A I MIAMI HERALD I I MONDAY SEPTEMBER 152025 Justin Grimm rinses stone crab claws as he fills a special order for 40 pounds of the delicacies at Grimm's Stone Crab in Everglades City on Dec. 2, 2022. FROM PAGE 3A CRABS as well, "We need to think more about the larvae than the adult crabs," said Heather Bracken -Grissom, marine biologist at Florida In- ternational University. Warmer water temper- atures can decrease the time stone crab babies spend in the larval stage, drifting on currents. Cur- rently, they live in the larval phase for up to a month. "If that shortens, then they can't disperse as far. ... In healthy populations, you want wide distribu- tional ranges," she said. In other words, as water temperatures rise, stone crabs end up with a nar- rower geographic dis- tribution, making pop- ulations more precarious and vulnerable to local environmental stress. Warm water also causes larvae to move into deeper water, which could move them out of zones that are valuable for commercial fishing— shallow water where it's easier to fish. Bracken -Grissom said she thinks there is a risk to losing stone crab range because of high water temperatures in Florida. "Every animal has a minimum and maximum temperature range that they can tolerate, so there's a tipping point for every species. We just need to pay attention to it, especially what larvae can tolerate." Warm water may push adult crabs deeper as well. "We've heard of com- cialfishemen trying and catching some crabs at 80 feet deep, but it's a lot of work to maintain traps out that far," he said. Traps at that depth would be 10 to 20 miles offshore on the Gulf coast. As of today, the Florida Keys and west coast are still the perfect habitat for stone crabs. They like the broad, gradual slope of the Gulf, which gives them plenty of bottom of rela- tively shallow depth — less than 80 feet or so — to forage. The coast off of Virginia and Maryland is similar. OTHER SPECIES MOVING NORTH Stone crabs aren't the only Florida -centric spe- cies a move north as climate change opens up new waters. "Snook, if you get a freeze, you'll knock the population back. But we haven't had a hard freeze that has knocked them back in over a decade, so you're seeing them all the way up in the Panhandle," Grandy said. "And man- groves are showing up all over the place — South Carolina, Georgia. They're pushing their northern limits because the winter temperatures are just not getting cold enough to knack them back." Similarly, Maine lob- sters are making a shift north into Canadian wa- ter, said Gandy, and the southern end of the range is retracting. "The American lobster fishery has been having some hard times, just because the population is moving outside of where they fish. They've been looking at other crab epe- es to fish, some of them you might see in the stare called a Jonah crab. Fish - en, who are pretty much stuck in place for the regions they fish, are having to figure out how to fish different species because of these changes. As for the health of the Florida fishery, the core of the crab's range, harvests peaked in the 1990s'said Grandy. "Harvests have been fairly stable for se- ven or eight years now," he said. "But they're fish- ing harder to get the same amount of pounds of stone crabs out every year." As fora new crab in the Chesapeake, Lipcius is more upbeat. "I really don't think it's going to be a bad thing over the long term," he said. "To me, this is a feel -good story."

Hannon Clerk of the Board 4A I MIAMI HERALD I I MONDAY SEPTEMBER IS 208 BET 11 x M1rb,Na5un5emmei Justin Grimm rinses stone crab claws as he fills a special order for 40 pounds of the delicacies at Grimm's Stone Crab In Everglades City on Dec. 2, 2022. FROM PAGE 3A CRABS as well. "We need to think more about the larvae than the adult crabs," said Heather Bracken -Grissom, marine biologist at Florida In- ternational University. Warmer water temper- atures can decrease the time stone crab babies spend in the larval stage, drifting on currents. Cur- rently, they live in the larval phase for up to a month. "If that shortens, then they can't disperse as far. ... In healthy populations, you want wide distribu- tional ranges," she said. In other words, as water temperatures rise, stone crabs end up with a nar- rower geographic dis- tribution, making pop- ulations more precarious and vulnerable to local environmental stress. Warm water also causes larvae to move into deeper water, which could move them out of zones that are valuable for commercial fishing- shallow water where it's easier to fish. Bracken -Grissom said she thinks there is a risk to losing stone crab range because of high water temperatures in Florida. "Every animal has a minimum and maximum temperature range that they can tolerate, so there's a tipping paint for every species. We just need to pay attention to it, especially what larvae can tolerate." Warm water may push adult crabs deeper as well. "We've heard of com- mercial fishermen trying and catching some crabs at 80 feet deep, but it's a lot of work to maintain traps out that far," he said. Traps at that depth would be 10 to 20 miles offshore on the Gulf coast. As of today, the Florida Keys and west coast are stilt the perfect habitat for stone crabs. They like the broad, gradual slope of the Gulf, which gives them plenty of bottom of rela- tively shallow depth - less than 80 feet or so - to forage. The coast off of Virginia and Maryland is similar, OTHER SPECIES MOVING NORTH Stone crabs aren't the only Florida -centric spe- cies malting a move north as climate change opens up new waters. "Snook, if you get a freeze, you'll knock the population back. But we haven't had a hard freeze that has knocked them back in over a decade, so you're seeing them all the way up in the Panhandle," Grandy said. "And man- groves are showing up all over the place - South Carolina, Georgia. They're pushing their northern limits because the winter temperatures are just not getting cold enough to knock them back." Similarly, Maine lob- sters are making a shift north Into Canadian wa- ter, said Gandy, and the southern end of the range is retracting. "The American lobster fishery has been having me hard times, just because the population Is moving outside of where they fish. They've been looking at other crab spe- cies to fish, some of them you might see in the store called a Jonah crab. Fish- ermen, who are pretty much stuck in place for the regions they fish, are having to figure out how to fish different species because of these changes." As for the health of the Florida fishery, the core of the crab's range, harvests peaked in the 1990s, said Grandy. "Harvests have been fairly stable for se- ven eight years now," he said. "but they're fish- ing harder to get the same amount of pounds of stone crabs out every year." As for a new crab in the Chesapeake, Lipcius Is more upbeat. "1 really don't think it's going to be a bad thing over the long term," he said. "To me, this is a feel -good story."
