REFERENCES. July 17, i975 Agenda items t2 dtd
1975,
Attached is a copy of City Attorney John S. Lloyd's June S
memorandum relating to the waiver of recital fees.
You will note that Agenda Items 62 and 63, both involving the waiving
of rental fees for City facilities, do not include resolutions prepared
by the Law Department. The City Attorney, in his above captioned
memorandum, lists the following considerations for granting the free
use of City facilities:
1. Celebrations
2. Entertainment
3. Sports and Games
1. Is it for a public purpose?
2. Will publicity be attained which will attract people
from outside of the Greater Miami area? (No
speculative inducements). If so, then Publicity
and Tourism Funds may be used.
3. Is it for an official City of Miami charity?
Through conversations with the City Attorney's Office, it is noted that
for an organization to qualify for public purpose, it must meet the
definition of public purpose as it relates to the City of Miami as a
municipality. Examples of purposes which do not qualify as public
purposes are as follows:
It is suggested that Item 62 on the Agenda relating to waiving the rental
fee for use of the Marine Stadium by the Miami Herald may appropriately
fall under the purview of publicity attracting attendance from outside of
the City of Miami. Therefore, Publicity and Tourism funds may be used
for this purpose. However, under the definitions provided by the City
15ttorable Members bers of
The 'City Commit t
Attorney, /tem 63, wairvirig the rental fee for use of the taseball
Stadium: by the Latin American acid Free Cubans Academy, would
specifically be excluded by definition.
It is recognited that this presents a difficult tlilernma for the City
Commission. It is suggested that the City Corruntssion may With try
identify its policy in this matter at the July 17, 1 75, Meeting: thereby
giving the Adrnin stration specific guidelines to be utilized which would
eliminate presentation to the City Commission of items which it cannot
act favorably upon.
