June 3, 1977
Downtown Development
Authority Ordinance
City Commission Agenda
of June 9, 1977
City of Miami Ordinance No. 7370, Section 7(g), required that the
general counsel for the Downtown Development Authority: .shall
be a practicing attorney with not less than ten years experi-
ence in practicing law in Florida."
The Downtown Development Authority of the City of Miami will save
thousands of dollars in private attorneys' fees by using the
City Attorney's Office of Miami as its general counsel. So
that the numerous talents of individual attorneys in the City
Attorney's Office may be utilized, it is necessary to remove
the 10-year experience requirement so that all of the attorneys
who are employed by the City Attorney's Office, including those
with less than ten years experience,may be of use.
The attached proposed ordinance will, thus, permit the City
Attorney's Office of Miami to represent the Downtown Develop-
ment Authority.
The Laws of Florida, Chapter 71-29, which evolved from House
Bill No. 932, permit all acts which are encompassed therein
to become ordinances of the municipality affected, subject to
modification and repeal as are any other ordinances of that
municipality. Chapter 65-1090, which established the Downtown
Development Authority in 1965, is contained in Chapter 71-29
and, as such, is now considered to be a City of Miami ordinance,
which can be modified or repealed as any other city ordinance.
