REPORT:
Commissioner Cabrera pointed out that when the Underline Project was first initiated, the City of Miami�s contribution to the project was expected to be $50 million and it was now being changed to $15 million. He noted many times in these instances, the County became responsible for the remaining funds.
Chairman Gilbert, III stated it was his understanding that the funding related to the current stage of the project; not the next stage. He commented that the next stage in the operation would be problematic and opined that the administration would be bringing additional information to the Board.
Commissioner Regalado offered to schedule a Sunshine meeting with Commissioner Cabrera to discuss the history of the Underline Project. She noted staff was working on contributions for the City specifically for the maintenance, and requested Commissioner Cabrera�s support on this item.
Commissioner Cabrera indicated that the other municipalities the County negotiated with, including the City of Miami, managed to get out of their original commitment and the County ended up having to pay more.
Chairman Gilbert, III commented that if the County was forced to shoulder a disproportionate amount for the Underline Project it would be responsible for the project�s operation. He noted the County would not provide funds to someone else to operate and design the project. Chairman Gilbert, III opined that the City was working on a different formula that allowed them to comport the monies that were coming in with that general philosophy.
Commissioner Regalado added that the City reduced its contributions based on receipt of federal funds and the City�s contributions were used for that match.
Vice Chairman Rodriguez acknowledged this was a good item as the County was accepting money. He asked whether the County had also reduced its commitment.
Mayor Levine Cava stated that staff had only budgeted $15 million not the $50 million and the administration had ongoing conversations regarding the new arrangements going forward. She stated the County had not reduced its commitment.
Chairman Gilbert, III stated theoretically the County was obligated for an additional amount; however, the Board would further discuss the County�s long-term commitment to funding the building and maintenance of the Underline when the new agreement was presented to the Board. He explained that this was an ongoing, fluid situation and the item was initially pulled for the administration to continue working on it as it was problematic and continued to escalate for the County.
Commissioner Regalado clarified the County ended up paying less for the capital build-out and the administration was seeking to resolve the maintenance and security of the Underline. She stated when the Underline was created the County was supposed to do more in terms of capital and that was reduced because of the federal grant. Commissioner Regalado noted there was a reduction in the City�s contributions; however, the City�s contributions were given sooner than they were supposed to be given in order to match the federal grant. She reiterated that she would be happy to have a Sunshine meeting to discuss the timeline and buildout of the Underline Project. She noted the administration was working on the maintenance, security and the programming.
Commissioner Bermudez echoed Commissioner Cabrera�s concerns, and noted it was important moving forward to discuss the history of this project. He concurred with Chairman Gilbert, III�s comment that if the County�s contribution was larger than others, then the County should have a greater say in the Underline project. Commissioner Bermudez expressed concern that if a commitment was made by any municipality, that municipality should keep its commitment, otherwise the Board needed to revisit what was agreed to before. He opined that moving forward, in any practice, the Board should take those issues into consideration.
Vice Chairman Rodriguez requested the administration prepare and provide the Board members with a history timeline of the Underline Project to give the current Board members a better understanding of the history of the project. He asked for this information to be provided prior to the Sunshine meeting to be held with Commissioner Regalado.
There being no further discussion, the Board proceeded to vote on the resolution as presented.

REPORT:
Commissioner Regalado inquired how the foregoing proposed resolution would be impacted by the Constitutional officers, specifically the Clerk. She noted it was her understanding that the Governor would name someone to be the Clerk and one of the first action would be undoing this proposed agreement. Commissioner Regalado stated it was also her understanding that things would be different after July 2023.
Chairman Gilbert, III stated he did not know how it would be affected and requested the County attorneys respond to Commissioner Regalado.
Assistant County Attorney Miguel Gonzalez advised the governing statute was the same throughout the State and did not make a difference in how the County�s situation changed. He noted the officers that were selected either pursuant to the Charter or the Constitutional officers who were elected had representation on this body, either themselves or through their designees. Assistant County Attorney Gonzalez advised the Clerk�s situation, before and after, had not changed based on how the statute has been worded.
Chairman Gilbert, III said he was informed that this item was time-certain and if the Governor appointed someone and they removed the item that was what it would be. He noted Mr. Fausto Alvarez needed to be removed from the Auditor Selection Committee as he was unable to serve.
Chairman Gilbert, III moved to amend the foregoing resolution to remove Mr. Fausto Alvarez from the Auditor Selection Committee (Auditor Committee).
Assistant County Attorney Gonzalez advised that the amendment would affect Section 1 of the foregoing resolution.
There being no further discussion, the Board proceeded to vote on the foregoing resolution as amended.

REPORT:
Commissioner Garcia stated that he could not support the foregoing proposed resolution as well as Agenda Items 9A2 through 9A7, regarding the 2023-2026 collective bargaining agreements (CBA) because they were provided to Commissioners at 12:23 a.m. today (5/16), and he did not have time to read them. He recognized the urgency of the contracts and thanked Mayor Levine Cava for including the rationale in presenting this item to the Board; however, he stated the resolutions were filed late and could not be four-day ruled as the Board�s emergency powers still existed. Commissioner Garcia expressed that his vote had nothing to do with the employees or the contractual agreements but with the process. He disagreed with the outcome of the recent Legislative Session and noted he did not agree that the Board should pick and choose Unions that would not be allowed to deduct dues from their employees. Commissioner Garcia stated that if the Board believed in a certain policy, it should encompass all unions.
Chairman Gilbert explained that he added the foregoing item along with Agenda Items 9A2 through 9A7 to today�s (5/16) agenda and made them exempt from the four day rule as they were contracts the Board had voted on before on substance. Chairman Gilbert stated that he appreciated Commissioner Garcia�s commitment to the process but in this case, if there were people who would benefit from the Board�s action he was comfortable with moving forward with the items.
Commissioner Regalado opined that it was important for staff to explain why the item was before the Board in this form. She commented that legislative changes were made in Tallahassee which would be effective on July 1, 2023 and noted that it would have been better for staff to inform the Board during the legislative process of the impact should the legislation regarding the Union dues was adopted. Commissioner Regalado said the Board would have had the opportunity to meet and discuss this issue with the Unions. She suggested that Chairman Gilbert, III could call a special meeting before July 1st to discuss this issue before it became effective. Commissioner Regalado indicated her support and stated the Board should be afforded options in the future. She noted that she wanted to discuss with the County attorneys whether this would provide legal coverage for the Unions, and voiced concern that last minute items removed the Board�s authority which resulted in the Board rubber-stamping approval. Commissioner Regalado said each Commissioner had the obligation to speak to everyone, review the item and make the right decision for Miami-Dade County�s residents.
Commissioner Bermudez stated he would support the item based on the urgency of the issue. He concurred with Commissioner Garcia�s concerns and noted he understood Chairman Gilbert, III�s comments that perhaps the rules were outdated. Commissioner Bermudez suggested revisiting the process moving forward and making changes if necessary. He noted it was important that if the Board had a process, that they attempted to adhere to that process. Commissioner Bermudez suggested the Board revisit the emergency process; and rules that could be understood and followed by the entire Board. He opined that it was never a good policy to have a permanent emergency power being used.
Vice Chairman Rodriguez agreed with his colleagues and the process; however, he noted he needed time to review the items. Vice Chairman Rodriguez said he would be supporting the item because after being briefed on it, he understood that it was mainly the status quo of a prior agreement. He read the following sentence: �The Union may claim that the County is still obligated to continue deducting dues and assessments pursuant to the Agreement based on constitutional and other legal arguments.� Vice Chairman inquired whether the County would be following State law or the contract on July 1, 2023 and if the County followed State law, was there a written commitment from the Unions that they would not take legal action against the County for not complying with their contract.
Assistant County Attorney Geri Bonzon-Keenan explained that each of the contracts were worded slightly differently. She advised the laws of July 1st provides that the payroll deductions of Union dues and uniform assessments will no longer be permitted as of July 1st. County Attorney Bonzon-Keenan said three of the seven contracts before the Board, had language in the contracts that would track whatever the law was as of that time. She stated four contracts before the Board had the same language that they have had and currently had in the existing Agreements that was consistent with the old version of the law, which would allow payroll deductions. County Attorney Bonzon-Keenan further explained that the four contracts before the Board had language that previously tracked the old law before it was amended on May 9th whereby the County would agree to make those payroll deductions. She also noted there were at least two challenges in the State by different Unions alleging that Senate Bill (SB) 256 was unconstitutional; and the possibility of other cases filed by other Unions including the local Unions that may make similar allegations. County Attorney Bonzon-Keenan noted the County was unaware of how the courts may proceed between now and July 1, 2023. She explained that if a court enjoined application of the law, then up until such time the payroll deductions may be permitted; if the court did not enjoin the law prior to July 1st, then as of July 1st, the law would require the County to stop the payroll deductions. County Attorney Bonzon-Keenan said she could not speak to what the Unions may or may not do. She advised they may bring a claim against the County at that point in time and the County Attorney�s Office would defend the County�s interests depending on the facts.
Chairman Gilbert, III stated that from the County�s perspective it did not matter if the Unions wanted to sue the County based on not paying dues as the County was obliged by contracts to do so. He noted the phrase the �the law� was being used when it should be �this statute� or �Senate Bill 256�. Chairman Gilbert, III pointed out that the Board was only aware of the current statutes, and the law in this situation would be determined by a judge. He stated that he had no intention of paying dues if the law prohibited the County from doing so. He explained that he felt it was important to present this item to the Board as it provided three years of predictability with relatively no changes in the labor agreements. Chairman Gilbert, III said currently, the Board was obliged to deduct the dues and if the County stopped the deductions on July 1st, the Unions could sue the County whether the item was adopted or not. He noted the Board would have to make the argument in court that it was not doing it because the statute did not allow the Board to do so. Chairman Gilbert, III stated that he would never knowingly advocate putting the County in harm�s way; however, the risks were relatively the same, whether the Board adopted or did not adopt the foregoing resolution.
In response to Vice Chairman Rodriguez�s inquiry whether the Board would be following the Union contract or following State statute on July 1st, Chairman Gilbert, III said if the Board did not have a legal authority by July 1, 2023 to pay the Union dues, it would not, and the issue would come back before the Board for a decision.
In response to Commissioner Bermudez� inquiry regarding the three contracts which allowed for an adjustment from the Board�s position based on language in the contract, Assistant County Attorney Marlon Moffett advised the three contracts were the American Federation of State County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME) 1542 contract in Article 5; the AFSCME 3292 contract in Article 7; and the AFSCME 199 contract in Article 7.
Mayor Levine Cava assured the Board that the administration followed a process whereby they were not allowed to open the contracts until April. She stated the administration notified the Unions and proceeded with negotiations on April 25, 2023. Mayor Levine Cava noted Chief Operations Officer Jimmy Morales had been her representative and could provide further detail. She said the administration followed the normal process and had reached agreements with seven Unions and wanted to bring the Agreements before the Board immediately. Mayor Levine Cava explained these were good contracts because they were continuing Agreements. She recognized Chief Morales who worked expeditiously after an agreement was reached with the Unions to bring this forward. Mayor Levine Cava opined these were an excellent set of agreements, it was status quo, the legal considerations were exactly as stated, and they may end up being interpreted by a court and the administration would abide accordingly.
Commissioner Regalado commented on the automatic payment portion of the statute which she noted was the first part of the statute. She said the prohibition for the automatic payment was done to reduce the size of the Union, and the statute provides that if the Union fell to a certain size it would no longer exist. Commissioner Regalado inquired whether this provision was part of Mayor Levine Cava�s negotiations with the Unions, and what would occur if the Board got to the second part of the statute. She noted the Board was agreeing to a three-year contract while another issue was developing and inquired how the contract addressed that reality. Commissioner Regalado questioned whether the Union had a number count and what were they doing to maintain their Union status should the statute hold.
Mayor Levine Cava opined those two provisions would be handled differently under the law as one required an action by the County (collection of dues ); and the other was a certification of the Union which did not require any action. Mayor Levine Cava stated it was her understanding that once ratified, the contracts would assure for three years the certification of the Unions.
Mayor Levine asked that Chief Morales be recognized to address the issue.
Chief Operations Officer Jimmy Morales stated the County did not play any role in the certification and in the counting; therefore, it was not a provision in the CBAs that the County would address. He pointed out that with respect to the dues deductions, those provisions in the seven contracts were status quo, and with the exception of dates, the reopener for cost of living adjustments (COLA), and incorporating Law Enforcement Appreciation Day holiday, 95 percent of the provisions were identical to the previous contract. He stated the seven different agreements had some different language on deduction because they had that language in the previous contract and the administration did not reopen those.
Chief Morales stated the administration did not get into the details of the statute during the contract negotiations, and it was focused on the Unions� belief that before July 1, 2023 made a difference. He noted from the administration�s perspective if that was helpful to the workforce and if in the process, the administration could obtain a good three-year agreement that locked the County into terms it was already comfortable with, particularly in light of the Charter officials, it was a good thing for Miami-Dade County residents.
Commissioner Regalado stated that she understood the Statute was prohibiting the County from deducting the dues, and that the County did not participate in the certification process. She questioned whether the County should consider participating in the certification process and having a more active role to ensure the Unions remained intact since the administration was seeking to protect the employees and the Unions.
Chief Morales stated he believed the Public Employment Relations Commission (PERC) would certify or decertify a Union; not the County.
Assistant County Attorney Marlon Moffet advised that PERC was in charge of the certification and decertification process. He stated there was no prohibition on the County being involved in this process and if the County believed there were inaccuracies in the information that the Unions reported to PERC, the County could bring that to PERC�s attention to conduct an investigation.
Chairman Gilbert, III stated he would amend Agenda Items 9A1 through 9A7, not the contracts, with the understanding that the decision regarding payroll deductions for Union dues comes back to the Board for July 1, 2023.
In response to Mayor Levine Cava�s request for Ms. Arleene Cuellar, Director, Department of Human Resources, to provide the payroll deduction dates, Chairman Gilbert, III stated he did not believe that was necessary because from a policy perspective, the Board should make the decision if a court had not made a decision. He noted he wanted to ensure the Board knowingly moved forward and if necessary, would call a special meeting. Chairman Gilbert, III noted he would make a motion to amend the foregoing proposed resolution to allow the decision regarding the Union dues payroll deductions to return to the Board. He further noted the County Attorney would advise the Board of the status of the litigations, and if the Board was approaching July 1st, that would be the subject of the special meeting.
Commissioner Mcghee stated the Board was discussing policy versus political decisions. He noted the policy discussion had already occurred between the County and the Unions which resulted in a contract. Commissioner McGhee said Chairman Gilbert, III�s amendment allowed the Board to see the final product before July 1st and also to be at the table during these discussions. He observed that looking at it from the political side, the Board was seeing the question of the effect of SB 256 on Miami-Dade County�s authority, the Union�s positions and the statewide impact. Commissioner McGhee read into the record the recommendation pertaining to the dues collection provisions of the contract in the proposed resolution. He noted the administration had informed the Board that they would follow state law relating to compliance. Commissioner McGhee indicated that he would second Chairman Gilbert�s III motion.
Commissioner Bermudez stated that he would support the amendment to the item. He asked if the intent of Chairman Gilbert�s, III amendment was that if on July 1st, there had not been a resolution to some of the litigation then the Board had to make a decision, and if on that date there was still a challenge to the Statute, the Board would have to make a determination on how it would deal with the contracts. Commissioner Bermudez noted if not, it may be a non-issue on that date.
Addressing Commissioner Bermudez� inquiry, Chairman Gilbert, III confirmed the intent of his motion.
Mayor Levine Cava said the July 14th payroll would be the first payroll to be modified, if modified. She noted the administration would need to know by July 10th; therefore, the July 6, 2023 Board meeting would be appropriate time for discussion.
Commissioner Regalado noted the administration said they would follow the law, and suggested the Board give Chairman Gilbert, III the ability to make the decision and call a meeting in the sense that the Board would maintain the status quo unless the Chairman called a meeting to discuss it. Commissioner Regalado noted if the litigation postponed the deadlines and the July 1st date then the Board would not have to meet before July 1st and the Unions could have that deduction. She suggested empowering Chairman Gilbert, III to make that decision and if that decision was not made, then payroll would continue because the Chair would be following the litigation.
Chairman Gilbert, III concurred with Commissioner Regalado�s suggestion that payroll would continue, and noted the Board also had a meeting scheduled for July 6, 2023.
Chairman Gilbert, III moved to amend the foregoing proposed resolution to ensure the Union dues payroll deductions decision would return to the Board of County Commissioners.
Mayor Levine Cava thanked Human Resources Director Arleene Cuellar; and Mr. Tyrone Williams, Division Director, Human Resources, for their hard work on this item.
Chairman Gilbert, III thanked Ms. Cuellar for her work on this item.
There being no further discussion, the Board proceeded to vote on the foregoing resolution as amended.

REPORT:
Commissioner Regalado stated at the federal level disabilities were defined only as physical and not intellectual, and she asked Commissioner Garcia to amend the foregoing proposed resolution to include intellectual disabilities. Additionally, Commissioner Regalado requested to be listed as a co-sponsor.
Commissioner Garcia moved to adopt the foregoing proposed resolution as amended to include intellectual disabilities.
Commissioner Cohen Higgins noted that last week she received notification via an article in the Miami Herald regarding a particular lawsuit where Miami-Dade County was the plaintiff. Commissioner Cohen Higgins said the decision to start, join or settle a lawsuit was a decision made by the Board, but in this instance, it was not, and the County was currently an active plaintiff in litigation against the Department of Economic Opportunity in Tallahassee Florida. She commented that the applicants had every right to be involved in this litigation but she had an issue with the County being involved in this lawsuit. Commissioner Cohen Higgins said she would bring an item to the Board, either as a discussion item for the next Board meeting or request an item be placed on the agenda to address this issue so that the Board could receive clarity on when the County was being named as plaintiffs in litigation, and whether the County wanted to continue being parties in this particular litigation.
Commissioner Cohen Higgins referred to an item that Commissioner Garcia brought to the Board in February 2023 regarding preemption. She noted there was an urging to Tallahassee that Commissioner Garcia wanted to support and she said that was a preemptive issue and at that time the item did not pass. Commissioner Cohen Higgins recalled that she asked if that law in Tallahassee passed, would the Board as a body, sue claiming overreach or unjust preemption and the response given was, if it was the will of this body. She noted this gave the impression that if it was the Board�s will, then the Board got involved in these lawsuits.
Chairman Gilbert, III suggested the discussion item be placed on the July 2023 Board agenda.
In response to Chairman Gilbert�s, III question whether the County Attorney needed permission to file a lawsuit, County Attorney Bonzon-Keenan stated the County Attorney�s Office defended the Board�s decisions and to the extent the Board had made a policy decision that was being challenged, either by private parties in court or if there was an administrative agency that was nullifying that decision, the County Attorneys would defend the Board�s last policy decision. She noted if the Board had not made a policy decision, the County Attorney�s Office (CAO) would not institute action or go into those proceedings without Board approval. She noted if the Board wished to reassess that and would like the CAO to bring these matters before the Board�s attention so it could advise the CAO as to whether or not to pursue that matter or defend the Board�s interest in that matter, they would do so. County Attorney Bonzon-Keenan said that was the general course the CAO had followed.
Chairman Gilbert, III opined that the item should have come back before the lawsuit, and he noted he would either have a discussion item the first meeting in July 2023 or Commissioner Higgins would bring an item.
Commissioner Garcia noted if the Board would be spending taxpayer�s dollars in defending a lawsuit of this magnitude, then it was important that it came back to the Board.
Chairman Gilbert, III expressed his dismay about the Board being apprised of lawsuits by the Miami Herald; he asked County Attorney Bonzon-Keenan to advise Commissioners of lawsuits.
Commissioner Regalado concurred with Chairman Gilbert�s, III comment. She stated it was a timely discussion for other reasons, such as discussing Home Rule challenges and preemptions. Commissioner Regalado noted the Board had a lot of difficult decisions to make as many of the laws became effective on July 1, 2023. She suggested asking Executive Assistant County Attorney Jess McCarty to provide an explanation.
Chairman Gilbert, III agreed that it was a good idea to review it in that context. He asked the County Attorney not to file any lawsuit such as the constitutional officers� bills until the Board discussed it.
Commissioner Regalado said that it was not only the constitutional officers but other issues that occurred during the Legislative Session that the Board had to address.
Commissioner Garcia moved to amend the foregoing proposed resolution to include intellectual disabilities.

RESOLUTION AMENDING RESOLUTION NO. R-240-23, AND EXTENDING UNTIL SEPTEMBER 13, 2023, THE DEADLINE FOR THE COUNTY MAYOR OR COUNTY MAYOR�S DESIGNEE TO PROVIDE THE REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS REQUIRED BY SUCH RESOLUTION

REPORT:
Commissioner Bermudez stated that the report on the Resources Recovery Facility was due on June 17, 2023; however, additional time was needed based on the time to investigate and extinguish the fire at the facility. Commissioner Bermudez moved that the Board amend Resolution No. R-240-23 to extend until September 13, 2023, the deadline for the County Mayor or County Mayor�s designee to provide to this Board the report and recommendations required by such resolution. He stated the Board needed to determine the damage and options at the existing site. Commissioner Bermudez noted this would give Arcadis who was retained as a consultant, the opportunity to explore other options, not just the options they proffered a year and a half ago. Commissioner Bermudez further noted the extension would provide the opportunity to review some of the other sites that were originally considered but not voted upon, and would allow the Mayor or Mayor�s designee to provide the Board with a viable report.
Chairman Gilbert III asked if Commissioner Bermudez wished to have this discussion during the September Budget hearings and Commissioner Bermudez stated he was willing to extend the report to October, 2023.
Commissioner Cohen Higgins stated it was her understanding that the Covanta Plant waste-to-energy issue had certain time-sensitive elements built in regarding potential financing options and opportunities that would be unavailable after a certain period of time. She inquired whether delaying this issue for another four to six months would hinder any of those opportunities as they currently existed and were time-sensitive.
Mayor Levine Cava said the administration had been in communication with the Commissioner and believed this was an appropriate timeline, and were mindful of all the surrounding issues related to the fire, recovery and next steps. She noted the administration was working on a more comprehensive strategy that they would be bringing to the Board for review.
Commissioner Cohen Higgins inquired whether a decision regarding the site had to be made within one year of when the fire occurred. She stated it was her understanding that the decision on whether to remain at the Doral site or move to another site had time-sensitivity issues attached to it regarding the Comprehensive Development Master Plan and federal financing options.
Chief Operations Officer Jimmy Morales, Office of the Mayor, stated there were different timelines, one of which involved insurance proceeds. He noted the County had two years to use the insurance proceeds, either to renovate the facility or build an alternative facility. Chief Morales said the adjusters were still preparing their report and the administration had not yet received any numbers to determine what it would be spent on. He said part of the additional time would be to obtain a full report from the adjuster. Chief Morales commented on a four-year timeline under the Inflation Relief Act regarding tax credits which was the larger number and he opined the County was fine with that. He stated the administration had not received estimates from Covanta on the cost to restore to 50 percent capacity and the timeline, and the administration�s report was dependent on information that was lacking from others. Chief Morales noted the administration needed to analyze the information and would prepare a detailed analysis in September based on the data.
Commissioner Cohen Higgins said the item should not come back to the Board for a decision after the timelines. She noted the tax credit was important to her as it represented potentially hundreds of millions of dollars. Commissioner Cohen Higgins concurred with the extension but with the caveat that when the report came back to the Board there should be no articulation that hundreds of millions of dollars could have been captured but the decision was made after the fact. She indicated that she would support the motion provided this was understood.
Commissioner Bermudez concurred with Commissioner Cohen Higgins and opined the intent was for the administration to return to the Board in October with a short, mid and long-term solution to this issue.
Commissioner Regalado stated that she was happy to support the district Commissioner but had some other concerns. She mentioned that trash was currently being taken to the South Dade landfill which only had so much capacity, and the commercial haulers were paying higher tipping fees because they were going to a different location. Commissioner Regalado pointed out there was an economic aspect to this issue and the longer it took to make a decision, more trash would be taken to the South Dade landfill. She stated this issue had an impact on the community, and commented on the five-year plan to increase the cost of waste that impacted unincorporated Miami-Dade County and those who contracted with unincorporated Miami-Dade County. Commissioner Regalado noted many issues regarding recycling and trash were broader than the Covanta plant issue, and she expressed concern regarding the timing and the decisions that would be made at the budget hearings that would confine the Board to other decisions after the budget. She noted she wanted the Board to look realistically at how much the options would cost and observed that although the administration was considering options, they could provide preliminary information to the Board on where the trash was being sent and the capacity. Commissioner Regalado added that different options were available and perhaps a landfill should not be the County�s only option especially if the landfill did not have capacity for a certain number of years.
Chairman Gilbert, III suggested the requested report be provided in September 2023.
Commissioner Bermudez said he was fine either way and pointed out the Board had agreed to consider all options. He agreed that every option should be considered and noted he wished to make a prudent decision in the short, mid and long-term.
In response to Commissioner Cabrera�s inquiry regarding the amount of the insurance proceeds, Chief Morales stated it depended on the insurance company�s conclusions regarding cause and effect. He noted it could be a significant amount based on whether the County would be building a new facility or repairing the old facility, and the value might be different if the County would be repairing the old facility. Chief Morales said the administration was aware and conscious about filling the landfills and currently trash was not being sent to the South Dade Landfill and was mostly being delivered to private haulers, waste management and a large amount to Central Florida. He noted the administration was trying to protect the landfills in the short-term until they returned to the Board with a short, mid and long-term strategy. Chief Morales said it was not hurting the County financially.
There being no further discussion, the Board proceeded to vote on the foregoing resolution as presented.
