A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF SOUTH MIAMI,FLORIDA,RELATING TO RESCHEDULING THE CITY
COMMISSION MEETING OF APRIL 4,2000 TO APRIL 11,2000;PROVIDING
AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS
Miami-Dade County Days isan annual event whichallows local officials fromall of Miami-
Dade County to meet with State Legislators inorderto promote the needs of their communities.
Lastyear,the Mayor and City Commission successfully promoted the needs of theCityand
greatly augmented the City's intergovernmental affairseffortsbyvisitingState Legislators the
day before and during Miami-Dade County Days.
In order to reproduce and build upon last year's success,the Mayor and members of the City
Commission will again meet with State Legislators theday before and during Miami-Dade
County Days,April 4-6.Unfortunately,this conflicts withthe regularly scheduled City
Commission meeting of April 4,2000.Therefore,pursuant to Section 2-2.1 of the South Miami
Code of Ordinances,the attached Resolution would reschedule the April 4th meeting to April 11,
2000.
The Mayor and City Commission's participation inlast year's event also necessitated the
rescheduling of a City Commission meeting.
