INTER - OFFICE MEMORANDUM 2001
To: The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission
From: Hector Mirabile, Ph.D, City Manager
Date: May 9, 2011 Agenda Item #
Subject: An Ordinance of the City of South Miami, amending Section 15 -63 of
the Code of Ordinances of the City of South Miami, Florida, regarding
mobile street sales restriction by clarifying the prohibition against sales
during a special event, such as an exhibition, exposition, art show and /or
festival; providing for severability, ordinances in conflict, and an
effective date.
Background: By Ordinance first passed in 1954, the City of South Miami, Florida restricted
street sales, which restriction is now codified as Section 15 -63. Section (d) of
which states:
Mobile vendors selling food, food products and beverages may operate and do
business in I zoning districts or upon construction sites where work is actively
in progress upon the following terms and conditions.
Section 15 -63(d) is in direct conflict with Section 15- 63(d)(3) of which states:
No mobile vendor shall remain in any one site longer than thirty (30) minutes,
except in the case of a special event, exhibition, exposition, art show
and /or festival not to exceed five days, and when further specifically
permitted by a majority affirmative vote of the city commission by resolution.
This amendment makes Sections 15 -63(d) consistent with Section 15- 63(d)(3)
and will clarify the prohibition against mobile food sales during city permitted
special events held in the City's parks, such as Murray Park and Palmer Park,
etc.
Cost: No fiscal impact.
