REPORT: Hearing no objection, the Committee proceeded to consider Agenda Items 2A, 2B, 2C, and 2D simultaneously. Assistant County Attorney Benitez read the foregoing proposed resolution into the record. Commissioner Sosa asked Assistant County Manager Ian Yorty to provide a comparative analysis on the cost to renourish the beaches with domestic versus non-domestic sand, including a report indicating whether or not the County’s portion of the cost could be shared with the municipalities and identifying the funding source(s) to be used for beach renourishment. Commissioner Sorenson asked that she be listed as a co-sponsor to Agenda Item 2D. Commissioner Gimenez asked Assistant County Manager Ian Yorty to provide a report, before the next County Commission meeting, indicating whether or not the County ever co-designated any portion of Flagler Street and Biscayne Boulevard including any Federal Regulations governing the co-designation of Federal roadways. Following Commissioner Sosa’s comments clarifying that the County had to co-designate State Highways in conjunction with a State Representative sponsoring the item in the legislature, Assistant County Manager Yorty clarified a municipality had to pass a similar resolution if the road went through a municipality. Hearing no other questions or comments, the Committee proceeded to vote.
