  URBAN DEVELOPMENT BOUNDARY (UDB) STUDY Presented
  REPORT: Commissioner Moss said this proposed study was very important for the County. He noted the explosive population growth Countywide and suggested this Commission conduct an unbiased, objective scientific study to accommodate the growth and its impact on the UBD. He expressed concern about the following issues:

1. The make up of a fair and impartial professional team to conduct the study;
2. The feasibility of conduct a new study or using former studies; and
3. The timeframe for completing the study

Commissioner Moss said he preferred to have outcome of this study available before making a decision on future development. He noted he would schedule a workshop to discuss the findings/recommendations of the study and suggested that members of the County Administration and the community be involved in the process.

Chairman Martinez concurred with Commissioner Moss.

Ms. Diane O�Quinn Williams spoke on the South Miami-Dade Watershed Study and Plan. She noted the study was on schedule that the Urban Development Boundary line appeared unscientific due to private applications to extend the UDB, and that the UDB line was expanded only once in 10 years. She said the Watershed Study was very similar to what Commissioner Moss was proposing, but it was more comprehensive. She presented a Power Point presentation and explained the history of the Watershed Study, which she noted was initiated after Hurricane Andrew. Ms. O�Quinn Williams also noted the Homestead Air Force Base was planning redevelopment; that other redevelopment efforts were underway in South Dade; and that representatives from the Biscayne National Park had attempted to prevent development near the Air Base. This Commission established a working group to balance the issues; and in 1996, the County Commission officially adopted the Watershed Plan to:
� Preserve the Environment
� Protect Water Resources
� Accommodate population Growth
Ms. O�Quinn Williams explained that the results of the Watershed Plan intended to optimize and improve the environmental, economic, and social values of the community. She said the plan was significant for the County�s future; that it would be a road map for how to accommodate future growth.

Mr. Roger Carlton, Chairman, Watershed Advisory Committee, noted Commissioner Moss raised an interesting question about the UDB line; that the Watershed Study followed previously mentioned by Commissioner Moss. He explained that the County conduct the study and that a workshop would provide a good forum to discuss the issues and implement some of the recommendations in the study.

Commissioner Moss said that the UDB Study was not intended to replace the Watershed Study; that the UDB Study encompassed the entire County�North and South. He stressed the importance of holding a workshop as soon as possible.

Mr. Michael Davis, Vice President of the consulting firm used for the Watershed Study, pointed out thatthe population would increase from 800,000 to 1.5 million over the next 50 years, and the County needed to know how it would accommodate such growth. He noted the following tasks were recommended in the study:
� Identify the existing conditions
� Develop future scenarios
� Assess future scenarios
� Analyze the best future scenario and develop a preferred scenario for the future
� Develop an implementation strategy
Mr. Davis 21 measurement tools were included in the study to measure the scenarios scientifically and three policy options were evaluated: 1) Continue without change, 2) smart growth scenario, and 3) smart growth scenario without any change to the UDB based on population levels in the years 2025 and 2050. He noted that the number of residential units needed to increase from 280,000 to 485,000 in 2025, which would have the greatest impact on land use. He said that once the study was completed, the Commission would be apprised of the consulting firm�s recommendations, and that he felt it would be feasible to implement the recommendations.

Chairman Martinez opened the discussion for public participation, and the following individuals appeared in support of the study as proposed.

1) Ms. Cynthia Garier, Executive Director, Tropical Audubon Society;
2) Mr. Rod Jude, 8420 SW 162 Terrace, Palmetto Bay;
3) Ms. Truly Burton, Builders Association of South Florida;
4) Mr. Anthony Seijas, 730 NW 17 Ave
5) Mr. Jeffrey Burkowitz, Attorney, 200 S Biscayne Blvd;
6) Mr. Louis Rojas, 200 S Biscayne Blvd; and
7) Mr. Lawrence Percival, 11945 SW 127 Court.

Commissioner Moss asked that individuals who attended the Partners for Smart Growth Conference provide him with information on the conference.

Commissioner Seijas asked that she be invited to participate in the workshop.

Ms. O�Quinn Williams extended to each commissioner an open invitation to the next Watershed Advisory Committee meeting on January 26, 2005, at the Water and Sewer Department Building.

Commissioner Moss noted all commissioners were invited to participate in the workshop.

Commissioner Seijas recommended the workshop be held before February 8, 2005, which was the date of next Infrastructure and Land Use Committee meeting.

  STATE AND FEDERAL LEGISLATIVE PACKAGE UPDATE Accepted as amended
Report
Mover: Sally A. Heyman
Seconder: Joe A. Martinez
Vote: 10 - 0
Absent: Barreiro , Sosa , Diaz
  REPORT: Commissioner Seijas commended Commissioner Heyman for her efforts at the Committee level. She spoke in support of Mr. Roman Gastesi�s, Director, Office of Intergovernmental Affairs, suggestion to have one or two prime contractors with sub-consultants in Tallahassee, and two or three prime contractors with sub-consultants for specialty work on the Federal level. She suggested the Board consider the recommendation to extend Federal contracts on a month-to-month basis.

Commissioner Sosa pointed out the Federal Package should include flexibility for the Army�s Corporal Engineers to work with South Florida Water Management and flexibility for the South Florida Water Management to lower the water level of canals below pre-hurricane season levels, if necessary. She noted the State and Federal legislatives priorities should also include a request for matching funds for the Fire Boats project and as a critical priority, should include a request to increase funds for hurricane and storm related flood mitigation projects and for the proposed election reform mandates.

Assistant County Manager Hernandez noted other suggestions were submitted by other departments, and he recommended the Commission go through them now.

Commissioner Heyman summarized the discussion and action taken at the Committee level. She asked the Board ensure that the page entitled �Critical� in the State and Federal proposals was all inclusive. She also asked Mr. Gastesi to add under �Other Issues to Federal� to request that any government with a population greater than or equal to 1 million be included on the Federal contract list. She also provided an update on the upcoming Washington D.C. Fly In.

Referring to the proposed changes, Commissioner Sorenson noted Commissioner Seijas was proposing to delete a resolution adopted by this Commission last year under her sponsorship. She questioned Commissioner Seijas� rationale for deleting this legislation.

Commissioner Seijas pointed out that circumstances had changes since that resolution was adopted; that some of the facts stated in that resolution were contrary to the water conservation efforts for this community. She suggested Mr. Brandt could provide a broader, more technical explanation.

Commissioner Sorenson pointed out that a private group emerged last year that proposed to privatize Florida�s water supply, which would have been completely contrary to the efforts of this County and other counties throughout the state. She also pointed out that similar resolutions were passed by the Florida Association of Counties and the Tri-County Commission.

Commissioner Seijas clarified that it was never the intent of this Commission to allow any private group to privatize the water supply, but rather to address concerns regarding water wars.

Mr. Bill Brant, Director, Water and Sewer Department, explained that a lot had occurred since Commissioner Sorenson�s resolution was adopted by the County Commission approximately one year ago; that concerns had been raised regarding the definition of a couple of provisions in the language that dealt with local sources first because the County�s water supply was derived from Lake Okeechobee and sometimes from water conservation areas located outside of the County. He explained that the department attempted to address this by deleting and adding certain language to the critical list that dealt with water reservations. Mr. Brandt read this language into the record, and noted staff was participating in this process.

Commissioner Sorenson recommended that the Board defer that portion of the legislative priorities pertaining to her resolution, pending further clarification.

Commissioner Seijas spoke in support of Commissioner Sorenson�s request to delete her proposed language from the legislative priorities.

Commissioner Moss noted Commissioner Sorenson would revisit this language, amend it to address the issues raised today, and bring it back for inclusion in the priorities.

Commissioner Carey-Schuler asked that the language contained with the State legislative priorities under �Critical Issues for Economic Development� be amended to include the following Language: �Support Legislation. We authorize that the State of Florida Enterprise Zone Programs, including support for an urban investment, job creation, pilot projects specifically for areas in the State�Florida�s two designated Federal Urban Department zones and two department zones in Jacksonville.�

Following further discussion, it was moved by Commissioner Heyman that this report be accepted, as amended to include the following Language under �Critical Issues for Economic Development:� �Support Legislation. We authorize that the State of Florida Enterprise Zone Programs, including support for an urban investment, job creation, pilot projects specifically for areas in the State�Florida�s two designated Federal Urban Department zones and two department zones in Jacksonville.�. This motion was seconded by Chairman Martinez, and upon being put to a vote, passed 10-0 (Commissioners Barreiro, Sosa, and Diaz were absent).

Commissioner Seijas clarified that her amendment was for the County to finish the State contracts as agreed, and extend the Federal contracts on a month-to-month basis until new terms were made.

Following further discussion concerning the lobbyist contracts, it was moved by Commissioner Seijas to extend State contracts until the end of the legislative session and until the RFQ was received. This motion was seconded by Commissioner Heyman, and upon being put to a vote, passed by a vote of 11-0 (Commissioners Diaz and Gimenez were absent).

It was moved by Commissioner Seijas to start the process to extend Federal contracts on a month-to-month basis, as needed. This motion was seconded by Commissioner Sosa, and upon being put to a vote, passed by a vote of 11-0 (Commissioners Diaz and Gimenez were absent).

Ordinance 05-14

Absent: Sosa , Diaz
  REPORT: County Attorney Ginsburg read the foregoing proposed ordinance into the record.

It was moved by Commissioner Sorenson that this proposed ordinance be adopted. This motion was seconded by Commissioner Moss.

Commissioner Sorenson explained this proposed mechanism was similar to a special taxing district and it was a voluntary funding source to construct a public school open to both students who paid an assessment and students in the outlying areas. She noted that the City of Homestead supported the ordinance, and that the School Overcrowding Working Group was involved in its development.

Commissioner Seijas said that she would not support the ordinance because she did not feel it was a Countywide issue. She expressed concern that it would cause exclusive schooling, it was another level of taxation and bond issues, it would allow a small percentage of students outside its boundaries to attend, and it would create a two tier school system.

Following discussion by Commissioners Moss, Heyman, and Jordan regarding Commissioner Seijas� concerns, Commissioner Carey-Shuler asked for an explanation of the Educational Facilities Benefit District (EFBD) tax.

Discussion ensued between Commissioner Carey-Shuler and Ms. Evelyn Greer, School Board Member, Miami-Dade County Public Schools, concerning the amount of the EFBD tax and how citizens would be apprised of the tax.

In response to Commissioner Carey-Shuler, Ms. Greer responded that the tax assessment area would change only with permission of the City of Homestead, the County Commission, the School Board, and the area representatives.

Commissioner Carey-Shuler asked how the County Commissioner�s member of the seven member board would be appointed.

Discussion ensued in connection with the issue of how to appoint the Board�s member.

Upon concluding their discussion, Assistant County Attorney Coffey said that general language could be crafted that indicated that any appointee should have appropriate experience to serve on the board, and live in the area.

Following further discussion, Commissioner Jordan asked for clarification that the appointed representative would be a commissioner, or someone recommended by the Commissioners, representing the affected Districts.

In response to Commissioner Carey-Shuler, Ms. Greer said that amendments to this proposed ordinance would have to be approved by the County Commission, the School Board, and the City of Homestead.

Discussion ensued between Commissioner Carey-Shuler and Ms. Greer regarding the attendance policy at the proposed schools.

In response to Commissioner Carey-Shuler, Assistant County Attorney Coffey said that the School Board was exclusively responsible for setting the school attendance boundaries.

Responding to Commissioner Carey-Shuler�s concern regarding legal action against the County Commission, Assistant County Attorney Coffey said the primary legal concern for the County Commission was the lawfulness of the fee allowed to create the bond district. She noted that the County Attorney�s Office, the School Board Attorney�s Office, the Counsel for Developers, and the experts who designed the impact fees concluded that the County would only provide a mechanism for financing. She said that an indemnification provision was not included, but one could be added.

Commissioner Carey-Shuler proposed that the County Commission add an indemnification provision.

Discussion ensued in connection with the issue of amending this proposed ordinance to include an indemnification provision.

Following discussion, it was moved by Commissioner Moss that the Commission amend the foregoing ordinance to be contingent upon the School Board granting the County indemnification. This motion was seconded by Commissioner Carey-Shuler, and upon being put to a vote, passed by a vote of 6-5 (Commissioners Barreiro, Gimenez, Heyman, Jordan, and Sorenson voted �no�) (Commissioners Sosa and Diaz were absent).

Chairman Martinez said that he hoped this ordinance would make other money available for other Countywide needs.

In response to Chairman Martinez, Assistant County Attorney Coffey said that the Attorney General said that the budget of a CDD was controlled by the Board of Supervisors of the CDD.

Assistant County Attorney Coffey noted that Chairman Martinez asked that the last sentence be amended to the following language: �this resolution shall become effective upon the submittal of declarations of restrictive covenants substantially in the form of attached to this resolution and incorporated herein, in a form acceptable to the County Manager and County Attorney�s Office unless vetoed by the Mayor and the veto shall become effective only upon an override by this Board, provided, however, that this resolution shall not become effective until 10 days after its adoption� and the ordinance would be amended with an effective date clause to provide the contingency pertaining to the indemnification provision.

Chairman Martinez asked that this proposed ordinance be amended with the following language: �to require that the final form of the Declaration of Restrictive Covenants be approved by the County Manager and the County Attorney�s Office before the District is finalized, pursuant to the inter-local agreement, in order to assure that the disclosure language regarding the assessments is clear and precise.�

Mr. Miello commented that the disclosure language in this proposed ordinance briefly and boldly called for disclosure before contract closing.

Hearing no further discussion, the County Commission proceeded to vote on the foregoing ordinance as amended that the last sentence be amended to the following language: �this resolution shall become effective upon the submittal of declarations of restrictive covenants substantially in the form of attached to this resolution and incorporated herein, in a form acceptable to the County Manager and County Attorney�s Office unless vetoed by the Mayor and the veto shall become effective only upon an override by this Board, provided, however, that this resolution shall not become effective until 10 days after its adoption,� that the following language be added: �to require that the final form of the Declaration of Restrictive Covenants be approved by the County Manager and the County Attorney�s Office before the District is finalized, pursuant to the inter-local agreement, in order to assure that the disclosure language regarding the assessments is clear and precise,� and with an effective date clause to provide the contingency pertaining to the indemnification provision.

  RESOLUTION APPROVING THE ''TRI-COUNTY COMMISSION 2005 STATE LEGISLATIVE PRIORITIES'' [SEE ORIGINAL ITEM UNDER FILE NO. 043441] Carried over to January 27, 2005
  REPORT: Commissioner Sorenson noted that a scriveners error left the correct language out of this proposed resolution.

It was moved by Commissioner Sorenson that this proposed resolution be adopted as amended to include the following language: �The Tri-County Commission supports legislation to restore full funding for Statewide cultural affairs and historical resources programming grants, to provide adequate appropriations funding levels for investment in cultural and historical facility grants through the Department of State�s annual review process, and to re-establish the Corporations Trust Fund as the dedicated cultural funding source. This motion was seconded by Commissioner Heyman.

Commissioner Heyman requested that Commissioner Sorenson�s amendment for Agenda Item 10A1 amend its substitute. She noted that the substitute made approval of the Tri-County Commission List contingent upon it being consistent with Miami-Dade priorities.

Chairman Martinez expressed concern that he saw items on the list for which the County Commission did not cast votes.

Commissioner Seijas asked to amend this proposed resolution to strike out the water supply language.

Following further discussion, the Commission recessed consideration of this Item to consider Agenda Items 10A23 and 11A4, which were time certain. This proposed resolution was subsequently carried over to January 27, 2005.

Mr. Ronald Book, PA, 2999 NE 191 St, Penthouse 6, said that he represented the Gaming Industry. He said that in the November 2004 election this issue was about:
1. The right to vote in Miami-Dade and Broward Counties, and put the slot machines in already existing, licensed, and taxed pari-mutuel facilities with gaming;
2. The guarantee that at least 30% of gross revenue would be supplemental funding for education Statewide;
3. The excess jobs that would total 5,000 in the first year plus 9,000 related jobs in the first year, with an average starting salary around $37,000 per year.
He noted that each facility was estimated to spend over $200 million for capital infrastructure improvements; that the facilities would each generate gross revenue between $220-280 million per year; that this Industry would make the community vibrant for tourists to come and spend money. He said this was about creating real jobs.

Responding to Commissioner Sorenson�s inquiry why he opened the meeting for public input, Chairman Martinez noted the high public interest in the matter.

The following individuals appeared before the Board in support of this proposed resolution:
1. Mr. Jim Horn, 1675 Peckerwood Dr., Orange Park, FL.
2. Mr. Mark Richard, 2200 Biscayne Blvd.
3. Mr. Fred Havenick (phonetic), 369 Lucedenda Dr., Coral Gables.
4. Mr. Daniel Leshardi (phonetic), Vice-President, Miami Jai Alai.
5. Mr. Zachary Wilcox, 3525 NW 82 St.
6. Mr. Harry Benson, Hialeah.
7. Mr. Joan Shiner, 8180 Irwin Rd, Coral Gables.
8. Ms. Florence Hick, 3 Grove Isle, Coconut Grove.

Mr. Danny Crew, City of Miami Gardens, said that Miami Gardens was not taking a side on any of the issues. He commented that Calder Race Track was an asset to Miami Gardens and recommended the agreement between Miami Gardens and the Track.

The following individuals appeared before the Board in opposition to this proposed resolution:

1. Camille Gighton Gethin (phonetic), Miami.
2. Paul Sego, 3 N Hampton Ave, Orlando, FL.

There being no other people to appear before the Commission, Chairman Martinez closed the meeting for public input.

Commissioner Jordan asked that she be listed as a co-sponsor.

Commissioner Heyman explained that she co-sponsored the foregoing resolution because of the perils that faced the pari-mutuels and to send a message to the State Legislature.

Following further discussion, Commissioner Souto recommended the County ask for 5% of the revenue rather than 1.2%.

Chairman Martinez clarified that the County Commission was discussing two items:
1. whether or not to allow the issue be placed on the ballot
2. contract considerations.

Commissioner Sorenson compared funding education through slot machines to legalizing other practices to fund health care. She commented that this would increase many undesirable businesses. Commissioner Sorenson noted the results of gambling were proven to be negative. She suggested funding education through the legislature, the School Board, and Property Taxes. She said that she would not support the resolution; that it was poor public policy, it was not good for the community or economy, and it was unknown what the legislature would do.

County Attorney Greenberg advised that November 2004 election results permitted, not mandated, an election, and the County Commission was not obligated to place this issue on the ballot.

Commissioner Gimenez explained that he was a co-sponsor because the people voted for it. He said that the will of the people would be served by placing it on the ballot.

In response to Commissioner Gimenez asking for his recommendation on the proposed agreement, County Manager Burgess recommended that the County and Industry have an agreement. He noted that the agreement in the agenda kit preceded adjustments made by Broward County on Tuesday, January, 18, 2005. He said that the County Manager�s Office drafted a supplement that recommended about 4 changes to accept for consistency with Broward County.

Pursuant to Chairman Martinez�s request, Mr. Book agreed to give Miami-Dade County the same percentage of the revenues as Broward County.

County Manager Burgess explained the revenue percentages in Broward�s agreement and noted the supplemental report had other modifications that were incorporated into a modified agreement to ensure that Miami-Dade County had language similar to Broward.

Discussion ensued regarding aspects of the municipalities in this proposal.

Following comments by County Manager Burgess concerning the media misquoting his level of satisfaction of the proposal, Commissioner Sosa said the Communications Department needed to send the correct information about the County Manager�s views of the proposed resolution. She asked County Manager Burgess to ensure that the County received a percentage of the revenue that was fair and made tax relief possible, and to ensure that the Cities enter into agreements.

Following further discussion, Commissioner Rolle asked to be a co-sponsor to this proposed resolution. He asked the Auditor General to monitor the progress of job opportunities produced by business groups.

Following comments by Commissioners Barreiro and Carey-Shuler, County Manager Burgess explained the revenue assumptions and Mr. Book explained the timeline for installation and operation of the slot machines.

Discussion ensued regarding which day the election would be held and the impacts of this proposal on tourism.

Following further discussion on the terms of the contract, Commissioner Seijas engaged in discussion with Assistant County Attorney Greensburg about amending the language that would be used on the ballot.

Commissioner Seijas conducted a straw vote for amending the language that would be used on the ballot.

Commissioner Heyman expressed concern about over simplifying the language and not satisfying the parameters required by law.

County Attorney Greensburg read a proposed amendment to the language of the question on the ballot with the following language: �Shall slot machines be permitted in authorized facilities in Miami-Dade County with any taxes that the Florida Legislature may impose on slot machine revenues being spent to supplement public education funding Statewide.� He said, responding to Chairman Martinez, that the initial clause of the ballot question was crystal clear and only the pari-mutuels in the Constitutional Amendment would be authorized. He explained that other institutions could petition for slot machines, but the language on the ballot did not allow anyone else besides pari-mutuels to benefit.

In response to Commissioner Jordan�s concern, Mr. Book clairified the percentages for municipalities in Broward were identical to the agreement with the City of Miami Gardens.

Chairman Martinez expressed concern that the Governor and State Legislature would not support the agreement. He confirmed with the owners of the three pari-mutuel owners that they would sign the agreement.

Following discussion regarding the most favored nation clause of the proposal, Mr. Book agreed to reopen the agreement with Miami-Dade County if it was reopened with Broward and to designate Flagler Dog Track as an emergency hurricane shelter for people with pets.

Chairman Martinez asked County Manager Burgess to contact the Office of Emergency Management and have the Flagler Dog Track listed as an emergency shelter in all County brochures, notify the City of Miami, and the District Commissioner of the Area.

Commissioner Heyman asked the County Manager to ensure that Ms. Torriente, work with Mr. Book and Mr. Wilbur Brewton from Calder Race Track to facilitate efforts in North Miami-Dade for animal shelter for horses during hurricanes evacuation.

Responding to Commissioner Gimenez�s concern regarding removal of the most favored nations clause, Mr. Book consented to reopen the agreement if any County in Florida negotiated a different agreement.

Mr. Book clarified that the agreement to provide emergency animal shelter applied to pari-mutuels.

Regarding Chairman Martinez�s explanation of the health care needs of elementary school children, Mr. Book said the three facilities would make a contribution to the health care needs of uninsured children.

Discussion ensued regarding how to collect the health care contributions.

Chairman Martinez clarified that the health care contributions were intended to take a little to help each Commissioner�s communities, and that they were outside the agreement and were signs that Industry was genuinely interested in the Coummunity.

Following further discussion concerning how to collect the health care contributions and the revenue figures in the contract regarding education, it was moved by Commissioner Sosa to amended the election date to March 22, 2005. This motion was seconded by Commissioner Moss.

Chairman Martinez attempted to take a straw ballot on the motion by Commissioner Sosa. Subsequent to Mr. Book noting that the agreement between the Industry and the County was based on March 8, 2005, Chairman Martinez changed the issue of the straw ballot to whether or not to put the issue of commissioner salary on the ballot.

A lengthy discussion ensued regarding the affect of the election date on the actions of the State Legislature and possible losses or delays in revenue; the Industry�s preference for March 8, 2005; and the commissioners� thought regarding Agenda Item 10A24.

It was moved by Commissioner Moss to adopt Agenda Item 10A24 Alternate #2 as amended to have an independent party appoint the members of the citizens board.

Assistant County Attorney Greenberg advised that the resolution was legally sound.

Discussion ensued in connection with the proposed language to use on the ballot.

Upon concluding their discussion, Commissioner Moss withdrew his motion on Agenda Item 10A24 Alternate #2.

It was moved by Commissioner Moss to adopt Agenda Item 10A24. This motion was seconded by Commissioner Sorenson.

Following discussion regarding the language of the ballot question in Agenda Item 10A24, it was moved by Commissioner Moss to adopt Agenda Item 10A24, as amended to delete the following language: �used by other Florida Counties, including Broward County.� This motion was seconded by Commissioner Sorenson.

Prior to the County Commission voting on the foregoing motion, Mr. Book expressed appreciation for the efforts made by the County Commission and staff. He said the Industry was uncomfortable with March 22, 2005, and requested the County Commission not put the slot machine question on that ballot.

Commissioner Moss expressed his unwillingness to hold a separate election on March 22, 2005, for commissioners' salaries and on March 8, 2005, for slot machines, whereupon no vote was taken on the foregoing motion, and it failed to carry.

10A23 It was moved by Commissioner Barreiro that the Committee adopt Agenda Item 10A23, as amended with the following ballot language: �Shall slot machines be allowed in authorized pari-mutuel facilities in Miami-Dade County with any taxes the Florida Legislature may impose on slot machine revenues being spent to supplement public education funding Statewide, as required by law.� This motion was seconded by Commissioner Heyman, and upon being put to a vote, passed 11-1 (Commissioner Sorenson voted �no,� Commissioner Diaz was absent).

11A4 It was moved by Commissioner Heyman to adopt Agenda Item 11A4, as amended that Miami-Dade County would receive the same percentage of the revenues as Broward County; that Flagler Dog Track would be designated as an emergency hurricane shelter for people with pets; and that the agreement could be reopened if any County in Florida negotiated a different agreement. This motion was seconded by Commissioner Barreiro.

Following discussion between County Manager Burgess and Commissioner Sosa regarding the revenue percentage the County would receive, Commissioner Sosa asked County Manager Burgess to explore the possibility of using the funding received by the County to alleviate property taxes for Senior Citizens over 65 by increasing their homestead exemption.

The Commission proceeded to vote on Agenda Item 11A4, as amended, and upon being put to a vote, passed 11-1 (Commissioner Sorenson voted �no,� Commissioner Diaz was absent).

It was moved by Commissioner Barreiro that Agenda Item 10A23 be reconsidered. This motion was seconded by Commissioner Heyman, and upon being put to a vote, failed to carry.

  NON AGENDA ITEMS Presented
  REPORT: Responding to Commissioner Sosa�s concern that she did not receive prior notice of the press conference that announced the crime statistics of unincorporated Miami-Dade County, County Manager Burgess said he would submit a report to the Chair the next day that explained the proper protocol to the Police Department and the communication problems would be corrected.

Commissioner Sosa asked County Manager Burgess to write a letter to Mr. Robert Parker, Director, Miami-Dade Police Department, and the Department of Security apologizing for her absence, commending the Department, and encouraging their continued efforts.

Commissioner Seijas suggested composing a letter for each Board member that was not invited.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commissioner Moss asked County Manager Burgess to examine the technical merit laws to see if the County could receive Federal incentives to put in bus ways that were later replaced by rail transit.
