We, the members of TheCity Planning Board, after full investigation

create a Division of Recreation under the Department of Public Welfare,
and appropriate for the parrying through of the purposes of this Division,
a sum of $45,000.00 for the ensuing year. We respeotfully recommend
that this sum be included in the present budget now being compiled.
The Planning Board feels that one of the assets of this or any other
community is our boys and girls, and believes that every possible assis-
tance should be rendered to the oare of the boys and girls during their
recreational hours, by providing for their use opportunity for clean,
healthy recreation.
We wish to draw to the attention of the Commission the fact that the
Resolution enacted creating parks and open spades from new subdivisions,
has provided in the City of Miami, many such places, which are well dis-
tributed throughout the City, and where they can be used in con junction
with this scheme to the advantage of all.
In the creation of this Division of Public Recreation, we, the Plann-
ing Board, suggest and recommend that the Director of this Division be
the Assistant Director of the Department of Public Welfare, and further
suggest that this Division be represented by a member of the Department
of Public Instruction, a Judge of the Juvenile Court, a citizen at large,
and the Planning Board.
