1E CITIZEN'S PRESENTATIONS (5 MINUTES MAXIMUM)  
1E1  
  201710 Citizen's Presentation     Daniella Levine Cava        
  CITIZEN'S PRESENTATION BY RACHEL SILVERSTEIN OF MIAMI WATERKEEPER REGARDING THE STATE OF BISCAYNE BAY AND THE RECENT FISH KILL Presented
  REPORT: Dr. Rachel Silverstein PhD, Executive Director of Miami Waterkeeper, gave a PowerPoint presentation about recent fish kills and algae blooms discovered in Biscayne Bay on August 10, 2020. She noted this was not normal for the bay and threatened wildlife and the local ecosystem. The causes were attributed to pollution which came from sewage leaks, septic tanks, stormwater runoffs, and the overuse of fertilizers. These pollutants produced too many nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus, which over-fertilized algae and created abundant bacteria. This situation created low diffused oxygen levels in the bay�s water, which in turn killed the fish and seagrass.

Dr. Silverstein discussed how to deal with the long-running pollution, which was also recommended by the Biscayne Bay Task Force. These measures included the elimination of septic tanks, stopping sewage leaks, upgrading sewage treatment plants, storing and treating stormwater, and adopting ordinances which banned fertilizers from May to September. She asked the Board to adopt these measures immediately to deal with the crisis.

Commissioner Levine Cava thanked Dr. Silverstein for her presentation and announced that an ordinance about fertilizers was forthcoming.

1E2  
  201760 Citizen's Presentation     Rebeca Sosa        
  MS. IRELA BAGUE, CHAIR OF THE BISCAYNE BAY TASK FORCE, TO PRESENT AND DISCUSS THE RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE BISCAYNE BAY TASK FORCE Presented
  REPORT: Before the Citizen Presentation, Vice Chairwoman Sosa thanked the Biscayne Bay Task Force and announced a forthcoming proposed resolution which urged the United States Congress and the Florida Legislature for funding of septic-to-sewer conversion in local communities. She also urged the County Mayor to create a position of a Chief Bay Officer for the task force, accept the report from the Biscayne Bay Task Force, and expedite its recommendations. (See Agenda Item 11A17, Legislative File No. 201693)

Ms. Irela Bague, Chair of the Biscayne Bay Task Force, gave a presentation about the task force�s work regarding the polluted waters of Biscayne Bay, and the bay�s fragile status. Afterwards, she discussed the task force�s recommendations with the Board.

Ms. Bague pointed out some recommendations must be implemented immediately, while other measures would take more time.

Commissioners Diaz and Levine Cava lauded Vice Chairwoman Sosa and the task force for their work and pledged their support to help adopt the recommendations. Commissioner Diaz noted although cleaning the waters would be expensive, it was necessary.

Commissioner Bovo announced he met with the governor�s office and the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, who would collaborate with the County for solutions for the crisis. He also mentioned there was state funding available to address the situation.

Mayor Gimenez thanked all the parties for the report. He noted the south portion of the bay was doing well and the pollution was isolated in the northern bay, which is where the basins were located and closed off to circulation from the ocean. He opined this area, especially the Julia Tuttle Basin, was where cleanup efforts should be concentrated.

Mayor Gimenez stated the need to prioritize the issue with the septic tanks, which needed to be discontinued. He informed the Board this would be expensive as it would cost about $7,500 per household to connect to a sewage system and a way must be found to aid households that could not afford the connections. He announced a state of emergency declaration was needed and the causes of the crisis had to be determined. Mayor Gimenez also would appoint a Chief Bay Officer with a dedicated staff in next year�s budget.

Commissioner Levine Cava noted the task force�s report was coupled with other delayed reports regarding Biscayne Bay. She asked Mayor Gimenez for updates on the delayed reports; he deferred to the Division of Emergency Resource Management (DERM) to address the delayed reports.

Mr. Lee Hefty, Director of DERM, reported that DERM was working with the Water and Sewage Department on the reports, which were forthcoming. He added that additional monitoring of the bay was already in place. Mayor Gimenez said the reports should be ready for the next Board meeting.

Vice Chairwoman Sosa announced she requested updated reports for the next Board meeting, an upcoming resolution to extend the Biscayne Bay Task Force as an oversight for the Board�s actions regarding the crisis, and legislation to aid residents who could not afford connecting to sewage systems. She also proposed the task force should develop plans for discontinuing septic tank systems.

Commissioner Souto acknowledged the dire nature of the situation but inquired where the funding to address this crisis would come from. He concluded there were not any simple solutions and all parties should be consulted to deal with the crisis.

Commissioner Higgins stated she communicated with DERM since October 2019 about their monitoring of the stormwater runoff. She added that DERM had the data since December 2019, but has not finalized its report. Commissioner Higgins suggested Mayor Gimenez coordinate with DERM to immediately deal with the matter, to which he agreed.

� Mr. Michael Llorente, 801 Arthur Godfrey Rd., Miami Beach, FL 33140, commented the bidding process was flawed.

Mr. Robert Fernandez, 2600 S. Douglas Rd., Coral Gables, FL 33134, represented the winning vendor of Agenda Item 8F9. Mr. Fernandez reminded the Board the procurement laws were followed and the recommendation was fair.

Vote: 12 - 0
Absent: Martinez
  REPORT: Commissioner Levine Cava reported that American Airlines (AA) was furloughing 1,900 of its employees on October 1, 2020 unless there was federal aid. She also noted other airlines faced similar situations and asked how many AA employees were based in the County.

In response, Mr. Lester Sola, Director and Chief Executive Officer of the Miami-Dade Aviation Department (MDAD), stated about two or three thousand people worked at Miami International Airport (MIA), but emphasized not all of them lived in the County. He added that negotiations for aid between the airlines and the federal government were ongoing and these furlough warnings were part of the negotiations.

Commissioner Levine Cava suggested that AA be allowed to upload their list of furloughed employees into the State of Florida�s employment database so the employees did not have to apply individually for unemployment assistance. She asked Mr. Sola for suggestions of how else the employees could be helped.

Mr. Sola mentioned that retraining and career services could be provided to the furloughed employees. He reported that he met with Ms. Christina White, Supervisor of Elections, and they opined furloughed airport employees could temporarily work as poll workers for the County. Mr. Sola also affirmed he communicated with CareerSource South Florida for retraining MIA employees.

Commissioner Levine Cava requested an updated report for the next Board meeting. Mr. Sola responded that he would get a representative from AA to appear before the Board to discuss the matter and provide more information.

Vice Chairwoman Sosa observed that while cargo services and federal assistance helped the airlines, the cruise line industry in Florida has not received any type of aid. She announced she was working with the federal government and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to address this issue.

  201588 Resolution      
  RESOLUTION RATIFYING ACTION BY COUNTY MAYOR OR COUNTY MAYOR�S DESIGNEE RELATED TO MIAMI-DADE WATER AND SEWER DEPARTMENT�S CONSENT DECREE AND CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAMS ACCELERATION ORDINANCE PURSUANT TO SECTION 2-8.2.12 OF THE CODE OF MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, FLORIDA SPECIFICALLY THE REJECTION OF ALL PROPOSALS FOR DESIGN-BUILD SERVICES FOR THE INSTALLATION OF A 54-INCH DIAMETER WATER TRANSMISSION MAIN NEAR RED ROAD FROM JOHN E. PRESTON TREATMENT PLANT TO WEST 53 STREET � PROJECT NO. DB17-WASD-02(Water & Sewer Department) Amended
  REPORT: Vice Chairwoman Sosa expressed concern about the item, noting the District 6 sewage pipes were old and fragile, and if they were not replaced soon water service would be disrupted and repair costs would be extremely high.

Mr. Kevin Lynskey, Director of the Water & Sewer Department (WASD), stated there were issues with the item during the procurement process, in whichthe City of Hialeah rejected WASD�s proposed design for the transmission main. He indicated that after ten months, WASD convinced Hialeah to approve the original proposed design, but by then the procurement was considered �stale� by the County Attorney Office, who recommended reissuance of a request for proposal (RFP).

Mr. Lynskey informed Vice Chairwoman Sosa that a new procurement would take about nine months.

Assistant County Attorney Hugo Benitez explained the procurement was considered stale because it was two years old. The procurement itself judged bidders based on the past three years of their safety ratings. Thus, the information used in the procurement was considered outdated.

Ms. Namita Uppal, Chief Procurement Officer of the Internal Services Department (ISD), informed the Board that the procurement process involved a short listing, design criteria being released to bidders, negotiations and the award. She offered that since the design criteria was completed the process could be expedited by three to four months. Mr. Lynskey said WASD would work with ISD to accomplish this task.

It was moved by Vice Chairwoman Sosa that the foregoing proposed resolution be adopted as amended to expedite the procurement by three to four months due to the emergency nature of the item. This motion was seconded by Commissioner Martinez, and upon being put to a vote, the item passed 13-0.

The amended version of this Resolution was assigned Resolution No. R-812-20.

  REPORT: First Assistant County Attorney Geri Bonzon-Keenan read the title of the foregoing proposed ordinance into the record.

Chairwoman Edmonson opened the public hearing and the following persons appeared telephonically:

Mr. Danny Gallegos, residing at the Charter Club on the Bay on 36th Street, opined the will of the people had been expressed in support for the item, yet Mayor Gimenez continuously vetoed it despite its support from the public and the Board.

Ms. Jeanne Baker, 1717 North Bay Shore Drive, Miami, FL, an advocate for the American Civil Liberties Union, strongly supported the introduction of civilian oversight back into the County. She added this would improve relations between the police and the community.

Ms. Yvette McLeod, 5241 NW 30 Pl., Miami, FL 33142, supported the item in light of recent events.

Ms. Susan Curry, no address given, supported the item because she said it provided accountability.

Seeing no other persons appeared to speak, Chairwoman Edmonson closed the public hearing.

Commissioner Jordan asked for a special roll call before discussion commenced; thirteen members were present.

Discussion ensued over the Agenda Item to create an Independent Review Panel (Panel) for matters dealing with the Miami-Dade Police Department. Commissioner Jordan admitted the item had been continuously debated in previous meetings. She stated that several amendments had been added to the item based on feedback from Mayor Gimenez and other commissioners. Commissioner Jordan concluded the current item addressed any issues that would have prevented it from being adopted.

Vice Chairwoman Sosa recalled the small amount of cases brought before previous civilian review panels in the County. She pointed out that the Panel selected its executive director without input from the Board. The executive director would have a large staff for an expectedly small amount of cases, which she opined was not justified. Vice Chairwoman Sosa also reminded the Board that although elected officials could not be subpoenaed, members of the general public were subject to subpoenas.

Commissioner Diaz asked Assistant County Attorney Shanika A. Graves if former commissioners, mayors or County employees during the time period when a case was opened could be subpoenaed. She clarified that cases could not be reopened, although the Panel could examine closed files and make recommendations. She speculated this gave the community the opportunity to have an independent fact finder learn more information about a case and allowed department personnel to publicly speak about a case.

Commissioner Martinez referred to the proposed ordinance, which read �The Miami-Dade Police Department shall transmit such files to the Panel within three days of the date the Miami-Dade Police Department signs the file�; he stated these transfers were not based on complaints, but would be an automatic procedure.

Commissioner Diaz opined this ability to review closed cases and witnesses presented a double jeopardy situation. He said he would not support the item.

Ms. Graves informed Commissioner Heyman the causes for investigating the alleged actions of police officers by the Panel were not changed by the item.

Mayor Gimenez rejected the notion that the County did not have civilian oversight of the Miami-Dade Police Department. He continued that elected officials such as him and the commissioners were civilians and already had authority over the police department and have used their authority to implement new policies in the past. Mayor Gimenez told Commissioner Jordan that although he acknowledged her changes to the item and would honor the Board�s vote, he opined the oversight process in the proposed ordinance was unnecessary.

There being no further comments, the Board proceeded to vote on the proposed ordinance as presented.

After the vote, Commissioner Jordan thanked the Board for their support and Mayor Gimenez for his commitment to honor the vote of the Board.

Vote: 13 - 0
  REPORT: First Assistant County Attorney Geri Bonzon-Keenan read the title of the proposed resolution into the record. Ms. K. Jane Williams, Deputy Administrator, Federal Transit Administration, appeared before the Board and presented a video outlining the benefits of the grant and how the South Corridor Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Samm Starts Project would improve the County�s transportation service and economy

Mayor Gimenez thanked everyone involved with the grant and noted how the money would be used to enhance the BRT and expedite its completion. He also thanked Deputy Mayor Jennifer Moon, Ms. Alice Bravo, Director of Transportation & Public Works (TPW), U.S. Congressman Mario Diaz-Balart, the State of Florida, the federal government, and other government entities for their assistance in obtaining the funds.

In response to Commissioner Jordan�s inquiry regarding the progress of the North Corridor Request for Proposal (RFP), Ms. Bravo stated that TPW was waiting for qualification packages which were due by September 18, 2020 and that once received, technical proposals would be submitted.

Chairwoman Edmonson opened the floor for public hearing and closed the public hearing after no speakers came forth.

Commissioner Bovo acknowledged Commissioner Moss for his efforts to bring transit service into his district. He said the BRT was a solid foundation for improving transit in the County.

Commissioner Levine Cava noted she and Commissioners Moss and Suarez voted to bring rail into the South Corridor but the motion failed. She voiced her support for the BRT project and asked about the possibility of converting the project for rail service.

Mayor Gimenez informed Commissioner Levine Cava that if the project was converted to a rail project, the County would be ineligible for the grant. The Administration would need to start over with a long process which was not guaranteed to be approved by the federal government.

Ms. Bravo stated for the record that TPW never received an unsolicited proposal for a rail project in the South Corridor.

Commissioner Levine Cava asked when the project would be shovel ready. Ms. Bravo replied, pending approval of the design-build contract, the project would be shovel ready in a few months of the calendar year.

Commissioner Levine Cava stated she did not want to jeopardize federal funding because the BRT brought short-term economic relief. However, she wanted assurance that the South Corridor would get rail service in the future and asked what would trigger the conversion to rail.

Mayor Gimenez answered if ridership reached 35,000 in the South Corridor then the conversion would happen.

Commissioners Souto, Diaz, and Martinez thanked and congratulated everyone involved with the project; they voiced their support for the item.

Commissioner Diaz confirmed with Ms. Bravo that the project was physically convertible for rail service. He opined the BRT was a good start for County residents in the south while residents in the east and west needed transportation similar to what was proposed in the BRT. Commissioner Diaz also hoped the County would have a circular transit hub in the future.

Vice Chairwoman Sosa opined the funding for the BRT had to be ensured. She agreed with the commissioners that the project had to commence soon.

Mayor Gimenez concluded the BRT was a significant step for improved transit system in the south. He also indicated rail service would eventually come to the area.

There being no further comments, the Board proceeded to vote on the proposed resolution as presented.

  RESOLUTION APPROVING AS A GOVERNMENTAL FACILITY THE GENERAL PLAN FOR THE MIAMI-DADE PARKS, RECREATION AND OPEN SPACES DEPARTMENT, THE PRESTON B. BIRD & MARY HEINLEIN FRUIT AND SPICE PARK PROJECT LOCATED AT 24801 SW 187 AVENUE, IN COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 33-303 OF THE CODE OF MIAMI-DADE COUNTY(Regulatory and Economic Resources) Adopted
Resolution R-832-20
Mover: Daniella Levine Cava
Seconder: Dennis C. Moss
Vote: 13 - 0
  REPORT: First Assistant County Attorney Geri Bonzon-Keenan read the title of the foregoing proposed resolution into the record.

Chairwoman Edmonson opened the public hearing and the following persons appeared telephonically:

Ms. Margie Pikarsky, 1900 SW 264 St., Redlands, FL 33032, supported the item�s planned park improvements.

Ms. Mary Waters, 13600 SW 229 St., Redlands, FL 33170, and Mr. Steven Green, 25920 SW 193rd Ave, Redlands, FL 33031, also supported the item.

Seeing no other persons appeared to speak, Chairwoman Edmonson closed the public hearing.

Discussion ensued over the item�s planned project to improve the Preston B. Bird & Mary Heinlein Fruit and Spice Park, wherein Vice Chairwoman Sosa mentioned that the planned infrastructure utilized septic tanks which needed to be replaced with a sewage system. She suggested that the planned facilities have a sewage system installed.

Commissioner Levine Cava replied that the park was outside the urban development boundary (UDB) and did not have ready access to sewage systems, although there were plans to incorporate the system into the infrastructure.

Vice Chairwoman Sosa alerted the Board that the plans included a restaurant, gift shop, a classroom, and indoor space for events. She stated this type of infrastructure required sewage systems, and added that a septic tank system would harm the water quality in the area.

Ms. Maria I. Nardi, Director of the Parks, Recreation and Open Spaces Department (PROS), clarified these structures, except a playground, already existed in the park and the project was to improve them.

Commissioner Martinez mentioned some actual structures would be built at the park and referred to a Comprehensive Master Development Plan analysis in the item that did not recommend business or industrial use in the area.

Commissioner Jordan stressed how the facilities at the park did not have a sewage system for over 30 years and that the local community wanted such improvements at the park for a long time. She said the real issue was that no one wanted to build a sewage system beyond the UDB.

Chairwoman Edmonson stated for the record she was unaware that the park already had these facilities.

Commissioner Levine Cava touted the park�s many nature-based and agricultural merits, but admitted it needed improvements. She hoped the Board would adopt the proposed resolution to approve the project, which had community input.

Commissioner Diaz voiced his support for the Agenda Item. He expressed that other parks in the County, including those in his district, needed funding and renovations, as well. He recommended the project should be extended Countywide.

Mayor Gimenez indicated there were new septic tank technologies which were less polluting and could be used for the facilities.
Commissioner Heyman suggested Commissioner Levine Cava have Ms. Nardi and PROS contact the U.S. Forest Service and the National Park System. She stated the parks in those government entities had advanced and ecologically sound bathroom facilities which did not use sewage systems. She voiced her support for the Agenda Item. Vice Chairwoman Sosa agreed with Mayor Gimenez�s suggestion about using updated, environmentally friendly septic tank technologies and said she would support the item.

Commissioner Levine Cava concluded that PROS was mandated to utilize new septic tank technologies for the project.

There being no further comments, the Board proceeded to vote on the proposed ordinance as presented.

  DISCUSSION ITEM REGARDING THE FISH KILLS IN BISCAYNE BAY Presented
  REPORT: Commissioner Higgins began a discussion about the issue of fish kills from low dissolved oxygen levels in Biscayne Bay and the findings from the Biscayne Bay Task Force. She noted the visible evidence of the fish kill in the bay underscored the severity of the problem with the bay�s water.

Commissioner Higgins stated she never received notification about the emergency situation with Biscayne Bay from the Division of Environmental Resources Management (DERM). Instead, she was alerted about the situation by County residents and organizations such as Miami Waterkeeper. She noted there needed to be better communication from the Administration and the County departments in order to take immediate action.

According to Commissioner Higgins, DERM informed her that they monitored the waters in Biscayne Bay a week before the fish kills and found the water temperature was over 90 degrees. She suggested an early warning system should be set up and detailed new techniques for water monitoring. She also said she spoke with Deputy Mayor Jennifer Moon about more consistent water monitoring.

Commissioner Higgins reported she would ask the County Attorney Office create legislation directing the Administration to determine the right amount of frequency for Biscayne Bay water monitoring, and if this should be done by the County or outside sources, such as universities. Additionally, Commissioner Higgins asked the Administration to hire companies to treat low diffused oxygen levels in the waters by aeration.

Commissioner Levine Cava expressed relief the item was moving forward but lamented it took the deaths of thousands of sea creatures to call attention to the problem. She pointed out the item had previously come before the Board in 2017, which led to the creation of the Biscayne Bay Task Force. She also recounted the history of delayed reports from various sources and said these delays contributed to the problem. Commissioner Levine Cava concluded it was time to finish the overdue reports in order to implement the recommendations from the task force.

Mayor Gimenez confirmed the Administration was not notified of the situation at Biscayne Bay and acknowledged the waters needed to be aerated as an emergency measure. He noted the problems were isolated in the north section of the bay such as the Julia Tuttle Basin. After stating that man-made structures like the Julia Tuttle Causeway disrupted water circulation, he suggested engineering solutions could be used, as well as reducing the nutrient levels going into the bay. Mayor Gimenez asked Mr. Lee Hefty, Director of DERM, why the reports were delayed.

Mr. Hefty clarified that DERM monitored the bay on the week of the fish kills instead of the week before as mentioned by Commissioner Higgins. He took full responsibility over the delayed reports; he said the reports were done by the same DERM staff who were occupied with monitoring the waters, and at times he had the reports redone to his full satisfaction. Additionally, DERM was involved with studies for other waterways. Mr. Hefty also stressed that DERM strictly adhered to rigorous scientific assessments and apologized for the delayed reports.

Mayor Gimenez announced his full confidence with DERM and stated he would rather receive accurate, if delayed reports.

Commissioner Diaz expressed confidence with the task force and noted the north part of the bay had always been problematic because it was enclosed. He also stressed the need to work carefully within complex ecosystems.

Commissioner Higgins concluded that the goal was to implement the recommendations from the task force in order to correct the situation.

  201712 Discussion Item     Dennis C. Moss        
  DISCUSSION ITEM REGARDING CRIME FAMILIES IN OUR PUBLIC HOUSING DEVELOPMENTS AND THEIR RETURN POST RENTAL ASSISTANCE DEMONSTRATION (RAD) Presented
  REPORT: Commissioner Moss presented a report about public housing families with criminal relatives living in their homes. He emphasized that nearly all public housing residents were lawful and peaceful. However, he acknowledged a few families with criminal relatives in the housing developments caused significant problems for other residents. This concerned him because he did not want criminals moving back into the communities and committing more crimes. Seeking to protect the lawful residents in these developments in a sensitive manner, Commissioner Moss sought input from the Board for policy solutions.

Discussion ensued over this issue. Chairwoman Edmonson pointed out that the persons committing crimes were often children or grandchildren of housing residents who did not live in the housing developments.

Commissioner Jordan noted a federal law which stated if a member of a family committed a crime, that family was no longer eligible for public housing even if the criminals were visitors of their families� homes. She opined the law had to be enforced and housing officials needed to file reports. Chairwoman Edmonson offered that residents feared retaliation from these criminal families and were hesitant to file complaints with housing officials.

Mr. Michael Liu, Director of the Public Housing and Community Department (PHCD), revealed he met with Commissioner Moss about this concern and confirmed Commissioner Jordan�s observation about the federal law regarding lease violations. However, there needed to be a significant amount of casework, which required hard evidence and convictions in order to evict the criminal families from public housing developments.

Mr. Liu stated he had a meeting planned with the state attorney about the subject and would include the information about the criminals who did not legally live with their family members in the developments. Also, PHCD would balance the rights of residents under the Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) program to return to their homes. At the same time, residents would be reminded not to violate the terms of their leases. He also affirmed the commitment to provide armed security, although PHCD did not receive any aid for security, which meant the department sacrificed needed expenses to fund security. He added that RAD was the only tool they had to address the funding situation. Mr. Liu affirmed PHCD would work with the Board and residents to remedy the situation in a balanced approach.

Commissioner Higgins opined this situation could be dealt with administratively. However, Commissioner Moss said he did not just want an administrative solution because of how it could be perceived. He wanted residents to know the County would be fair and not single out individuals.

Commissioner Levine Cava asked about the communications PHCD had with relocated families. Mr. Liu replied PHCD followed the letter of the law and worked harder to communicate with residents because of safety issues related to the coronavirus 19 (COVID-19) pandemic.

Commissioner Heyman opined federal laws needed to change to adequately address this dilemma.

Commissioner Jordan asked Mr. Liu about the process PHCD used to monitor visitors who moved in with their relatives at public housing.

Mr. Liu answered that residents needed to register their guests and the department also used parking to distinguish visitors. He admitted it was difficult to monitor visitors and enforce the length of visits because of limited staffing and the large size of the developments. He also stated that new developments used a policy of a mixed-income approach for families which raised living expectations, respect and improved behavior. Mr. Liu thanked Commissioner Moss for holding the discussion.

  201713 Discussion Item     Esteban L. Bovo, Jr.        
  UPDATE ON THE COUNTY'S CENSUS EFFORTS Presented
  REPORT: Commissioner Bovo updated the Board on the U.S. 2020 Census efforts in the County, which he detailed in distributed packages to the Board. He provided details on community outreach programs, tools, and alternative methods to reach County residents such as social media and text messaging. He stated some adaptations had to be made because of the coronavirus 19 (COVID-19) pandemic, as well; this development caused delays with census taking and led to accelerated schedules. Commissioner Bovo thanked all the County employees who worked in the 2020 Census.

Commissioner Bovo opined the census should not be politicized and affirmed data collected from the census would be confidential.

Regarding the response rate from County residents for the 2020 Census, which was 59.8 percent, Commissioner Bovo reported it was about the same as in 2010. His stated goal was to reach a County response rate of 80 percent and pointed out efforts to obtain higher response rates from County cities such as Miami Beach, Aventura, Miami, Homestead and Surfside. According to Commissioner Bovo, it was important to obtain a higher response rate in order to get more funding for programs from the federal government.

Commissioner Bovo thanked the Department of Regulatory and Economic Resources (RER), the Communications Department, and Mayor Gimenez and his staff for their help with the 2020 Census.

Commissioner Levine Cava opined the best way to get responses when other methods failed was through one-on-one contact. She asked if non-profit organizations could be used to assist with large-scale, door-to-door efforts.

Commissioner Bovo replied to Commissioner Levine Cava�s inquiry of using non-profit organizations to assist with large-scale, door-to-door efforts, stating that census takers from the Census Bureau were going door to door throughout the County and did include the efforts of non-profit organizations.

Commissioner Levine Cava asked if additional County employees could be used for the 2020 Census. Commissioner Bovo answered the Administration had to be consulted.

Commissioner Levine Cava indicated the importance of the County not being undercounted in the 2020 Census and offered to recruit volunteers from her staff to aid in the census efforts. Commissioner Bovo suggested she communicate with the Census Bureau about providing volunteers.

Commissioner Bovo affirmed he and his staff would work with RER and the Census Bureau to ensure as many residents as possible would be informed about the 2020 Census and counted.

  REPORT: Commissioner Moss discussed the proposed ordinance which permitted joint parking among businesses at industrial zones in the Unincorporated Area of the County. He reported there were increased traffic and parking concerns in the zones because of new businesses. He pointed out that auto body shops and auto detailing businesses were most prone to using up parking spaces.

Mr. Nathan Kogan, Assistant Director of the Department of Regulatory and Economic Resources (RER), explained that at certain times of the day, there was little use for some parking spaces and the item permitted some businesses to use the spare parking spaces of their business neighbors during off-hours.

Commissioner Moss asked Mr. Kogan what if a business owner changed his or her mind about operating hours which conflicted with assigned times to utilize a parking space. Mr. Kogan replied that businesses had to submit agreements with RER for using a particular parking space at a specific time, which was enforceable. He added the proposed ordinance provided more opportunities for parking, which were limited by operating hours and if there was enough usage of the parking space at different hours.

There being no further comments, the Board proceeded to vote on the proposed ordinance as presented.

Excused: Suarez
  REPORT: Commissioner Levine Cava opined the proposed ordinance was too broad regarding notification that the County Mayor must provide emergency orders within a 24-hour period to the Board. She added there could be life-and-death emergencies which required faster notice and the item needed to be more narrowly defined. She suggested a friendly amendment to exclude life-and-death emergencies in the proposed ordinance. Commissioner Martinez agreed.

It was moved by Commissioner Martinez that the foregoing proposed ordinance be adopted as amended. This motion was seconded by Chairwoman Edmonson, and upon being put to a vote, the item passed 12-0; Commissioner Suarez was excused.

  REPORT: Commissioner Jordan opined the designated purchase for security guard services outlined in the proposed resolution should have been a retroactive approval. She elaborated that the contract expired in December 2019 and was extended for six months, but it should have been advertised for competitive bids.

Ms. Namita Uppal, Chief Procurement Officer of the Internal Services Department (ISD), informed Commissioner Jordan the contract was put out for bid in July 2019, which ISD received. She reported there were various issues with the procurement, such as non-responsive companies, and referred to a companion item (See Agenda Item 8F5), which rejected all proposals. Ms. Uppal assured Commissioner Jordan the procurement process would begin again, but continuity was needed for the security services, and the only way to extend the services was through a designated purchase.

Commissioner Jordan voiced concerns with the process because of the timeline for the procurement and opined the Administration did not have authority to extend the contract.

Ms. Uppal announced the next procurement process would be expedited and involved the homeowners associations (HOA) that operated in the districts outlined in the item. She stressed the process would be simplified to take the HOAs� input into consideration.

Commissioner Monestime agreed with Commissioner Jordan and added ISD should have came before the Board prior to the contract�s initial expiration. He said he would not support the item.

Commissioner Jordan said the Agenda Item needed to be revised and suggested a deferral.

Ms. Tara Smith, Director of ISD, explained the proposed resolution was to get approval to extend the contract to May 2021. She added the security services were to be used by the 18 different HOAs and the proposals were pulled because the HOAs did not reach consensus about the competing vendors. She stated the new process being contemplated by ISD was a bid waiver because the HOAs wanted more decision-making authority in the process. However, ISD would continue to work with the County Attorney Office to create a fair process.

Assistant County Attorney Angela Benjamin explained what designated purchases were and the item was a designated purchase because ISD was unable to procure bids through the normal process. The proposed resolution provided for uninterrupted security services as ISD underwent a new competitive bid process.

Mayor Gimenez opined the process worked well and ISD had a procurement until the HOAs voiced their objections to the selection, which delayed the process. Ms. Uppal confirmed this assessment.

Chairwoman Edmonson announced she would support the item so that the security services would not be uninterrupted.

There being no further comments, the Board proceeded to vote on the proposed ordinance as presented.

  REPORT: Chairwoman Edmonson asked why E-Net Software Maintenance Support Services (E-Net) was offered a ten-year contract in the proposed resolution.

Mr. Angel Petisco, Chief Information Officer of the Information Technology Department (ITD), explained ITD originally offered E-Net for its software services a five-year contract with a five one-year renewal options. He stated negotiations between ITD and E-Net yielded a new contract for nine years with a one-year renewal option, which was in the proposed resolution and reflected the time period from 2015 to 2025. Mr. Petisco pointed out this would save the County $37,000 because it locked in maintenance costs of the software.

  REPORT: Commissioner Heyman voiced concerns about the Agenda Item for a contract to provide public parking services at the Miami International Airport (MIA). She stated an Office of the Inspector General�s (Inspector General) report claimed the winning bid by LAZ Florida Parking, LLC was an unvetted specification, should not have been included into the Request for Proposal (RFP), and the procurement process itself was confusing. She agreed with the report and said the bid raised many questions.

Commissioner Heyman informed the Board the winning bidder did not have any experience with MIA, was sued by the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA), and filed for bankruptcy in the past. She was alarmed by the bidding process and asked Mr. Lester Sola, Director and Chief Executive Officer of the Miami-Dade Aviation Department (MDAD), if there were any issues with the current vendor, Airport Parking Associates (APA), which operated at MIA for twenty years.

Mr. Sola said there were no issues with the current vendor and explained the current contract was ending and MDAD needed to solicit for new competition. He stated the procurement was solely based on technical evaluation scores. LAZ was ranked higher than APA by how much LAZ charged to provide their services at MIA. Mr. Sola added that the yearly management fees from LAZ was $65,000 versus $72,497 charged by the current vendor.

Ms. Namita Uppal, Chief Procurement Officer of Internal Services Department (ISD), supported the assessment and confirmed the winning bidder�s management fees were lower and a deciding factor.

Discussion ensued over the circumstances of how LAZ won the contract. Other Board members such as Commissioners Diaz, Martinez, Higgins, and Levine Cava also expressed concerns with the item, the procurement process and the winning bidder.

Commissioner Diaz opined the $7,500 difference in price between the two bidders was negligible and service quality should be prized over money. He stated he could not comprehend how LAZ was rated higher in the evaluation given its past history and voiced his discomfort with the process.

Assistant County Attorney David Murray affirmed there were no flaws in the bidding process. He informed Commissioner Sosa the hearing examiner did not find any legal flaws in the process, but both he and Mr. Sola deferred questions about the process to ISD.

Ms. Uppal reviewed the history of the procurement process and how LAZ won the bid over APA based on its Best and Final Offer (BAFO). According to her, two BAFOs were done by the Mayor�s selection committee, as part of the negotiation process, and the Tourism and Ports Committee. When asked by various commissioners about the bidders� location, Ms. Uppal reported both competing vendors qualified for local preference because they were located in the County. She stated that in regard to the bankruptcy filing by LAZ, the company filed for bankruptcy during the Great Recession when many companies faced financial hardships. Ms. Uppal concluded the process was fairly executed and the proposal from LAZ was extensively evaluated by the Mayor�s selection committee.

Commissioner Bovo defended the procurement process and stated the discussion only occurred because other commissioners contested the award on behalf of the losing vendor. He affirmed LAZ won the contract because of its BAFO and said the Board should adhere to the process.

Commissioner Moss provided more details about the MBTA lawsuit against LAZ. He cited an article from the May 4, 2017 issue of the CommonWealth magazine which reported the lawsuit came after the company�s former employees allegedly stole millions of dollars from the MBTA�s commuter parking facilities.

Chairwoman Edmonson added that LAZ settled the lawsuit for $5.6 million, and when asked, Mr. Murray admitted he was not personally aware of the lawsuit. Meanwhile, Ms. Uppal stated the settled lawsuit was against one of LAZ�s sister companies and the branch operating in the County was not associated with the one that worked with the MBTA.

Commissioner Higgins reminded the Board that the cost for changing vendors was not being considered and it would be substantial, which made the savings of $7,500 negligible.

Commissioner Monestime asked about the status of the current APA employees at Airport Parking Associates and stated there were more issues that need investigation before he could support the item. Mr. Sola stated that LAZ had to use the APA employees.

Commissioner Jordan emphasized that the bidding process was not fair, nor favorable to local business after it was learned by the Board that although LAZ was based in the County, its headquarters was in Connecticut. She pointed out that the local requirement was ignored by LAZ in the RFP, which impacted the initial pricing. She added that an Inspector General report revealed the RFP had unvetted reimbursement language, which should not have been included in the RFP. Commissioner Jordan concluded that clear guidelines and policies were needed for the process.

After voicing her issues with the item and how it was unfavorable to employees, Commissioner Heyman made a motion to reject the awarding of the contract to LAZ and resume discussion on the item at the October 20, 2020, Board of County Commissioners (BCC) Regular meeting; it was seconded by Commissioner Jordan.

Vice Chairwoman Sosa said she directed the County Attorney Office to prepare legislation to direct ISD to conduct responsibility reviews to include past legal matters any company bidding on contracts. She suggested the contract in the item should be extended for two months until a revised, competitive process was ready and both companies could be properly vetted.

Commissioner Bovo announced he would not support the motion because it had been debated on for over a year and the discussion would never conclude to anyone�s satisfaction.

Chairwoman Edmonson asked Mr. Murray if it was possible to reject the award to LAZ and give the contract instead to APA. Mr. Murray responded that based on certain criteria, such as the Board�s factual finding that the selection committee mis-weighed the relevant experience of both vendors and LAZ�s past history, the contract could be awarded to APA.

Commissioner Heyman proposed an amendment to reject the bid by LAZ and award the contract to APA, which was seconded by Commissioner Jordan. Mr. Murray restated the motion, which needed a two-thirds vote for passage.

�The recommendation is that this Board finds that Airport Parking Associates, based on the record before it today and inclusive of the experience issues that have been brought up regarding LAZ, was the proper winner of this procurement under the RFP criteria as published originally, and that is the truthful finding of this Board, which is that Airport Parking Associates is therefore the proper winner under the criteria of the RFP.�

Vice Chairwoman Sosa would not support this motion because she stated a mandate was needed for a new competitive bid.

Commissioner Levine Cava stated she could not support the motion because she felt the item should have gone back to the Administration.

It was moved by Commissioner Heyman that the foregoing proposed resolution be adopted, as amended. This motion was seconded by Commissioner Jordan, and upon being put to a vote, the item passed 9-3; Commissioners Sosa, Levine Cava and Bovo voted no; Commissioner Souto was absent.

  REPORT: Commissioner Levine Cava requested a Point of Personal Privilege and asked First Assistant County Attorney Geri Bonzon-Keenan to read her notice about the Venture Hive Program.

Ms. Bonzon-Keenan read:

�In the FY 2019-2020 budget, the Commission allocated $150,000 dollars to the Venture Hive Program to provide consultations services to the County relating to developing the Global Co-Creation Lab, a multi-year collaboration to help the County become a high-tech concentrator hub in healthcare and medicine. At the time the Board adopted the budget, the Venture Hive Program did not have a not-for-profit entity in the State of Florida, and so the budget did not identify a not-for-profit entity to receive the funds. The Venture Hive Program now has established a not-for-profit entity in Florida named Global Entrepreneurship Network, Inc. Consequently,

"I move to amend the FY 2019-2020 adopted budget to authorize global entrepreneurship Network, Inc. to receive $150,000 in funds allocated for Venture Hive Program to provide consultations services to the County to the development of the Global Co-Creation Lab.�

Commissioner Levine Cava moved the amendment, which was seconded by Commissioner Heyman.

Deputy Mayor Jennifer Moon explained why the allocation had to be changed. The allocation was made as part of the 2019 budget and Venture Hive has since changed to a non-profit entity, which had to be reflected in the allocation.

Commissioner Levine Cava moved a motion that the allocation to Venture Hive Program be approved, which was seconded by Commissioner Heyman, and upon being put to a vote the item passed as amended 8-0.

  REPORT: Assistant County Attorney Leigh Kobrinski read Commissioner Levine Cava�s motion for an amendment to Agenda Item 11A11 Amended, Legislative File No. 201816, which was adopted as amended at the July 21, 2020 BCC Regular meeting.

�On July 21, 2020, this Board adopted Resolution No. R-750-20 directing the County Mayor to develop and implement a forgivable loan or grant program using $10 million in CARES Act funds for small nonprofit organizations to alleviate financial hardships caused by coronavirus disease 2019. Subsection (iii) of section 1 of this resolution prohibits a nonprofit organization from applying for these funds if they have received any financial assistance from other emergency county, city, state, or federal forgivable loan or grant programs established in response to COVID-19.

"To provide more flexibility in administering these funds and assistance to small nonprofits, I move to replace the language in subsection (iii) of section 1, with the following:

�(iii) the County Mayor or County Mayor�s designee in administering the program shall ensure that those receiving these loans or grants are not �double dipping� and have not made up their financial losses through other assistance, such as assistance already received through county, city, state, or federal loan or grant programs established in response to COVID-19 or insurance.��

Commissioner Moss pointed out that some small businesses in the County opened just as the COVID-19 pandemic began and were not eligible for assistance programs. He questioned if there was any way they could be helped.

Deputy Mayor Edward Marquez informed the Board that in order to qualify for most programs, businesses needed to be operational for at least two years.

Ms. Kobrinski explained the amendment which would not permit a non-profit organization which received assistance from the program to get additional aid for the same expenses from other programs. She clarified the non-profit organization was able to receive aid from other programs for different expenses and the difference in the amount of aid they incurred for an expense that was not completely covered by the program.

Mr. Michael Liu, Director of the Public Housing and Community Development Department, provided more details about the program. He said the program has not started yet and applications for it would be accepted on September 8, 2020. Also, grants ranged from $20,000 up to $47,500 and were based on the gross revenue in 2019 of non-profit organizations.

Commissioner Levine Cava added that priority would be given to non-profit organizations which had not received any assistance.

Commissioner Heyman asked for the language in the amendment to be changed so that the words �double dipping� would read �avoid duplication�, which was accepted by Commissioner Levine Cava.

It was moved by Commissioner Levine Cava that the foregoing proposed resolution be adopted as amended. This motion was seconded by Commissioner Heyman, and upon being put to a vote, the item passed 12-0; Commissioner Suarez was absent.
