The initial term was for 5 years with a five year option to renew. In 2009, <br />the City entered into another Interlocal Agreement with Miami -Dade County to continue thesf <br />permitting services for an initial 5 year term with a five year option to renew. <br />Since the 2009 agreement expired, the City has not had any formal policy for permitting commercial <br />filming within our jurisdiction. As the city has transitioned to a more community based mission, where <br />quality of life is paramount, the City wishes to manage these permits at the local level rather than at <br />the county level. <br />The proposed ordinance formalizes the process and practices that city staff have been following for <br />the last 23 years through the relationship with Miami -Dade County. This ordinance will not impose <br />any greater restrictions on the commercial filming industry than has existed under the current <br />program. <br />ATTACHMENTS: <br />Ordinance (Added on 9/15/22) <br />Item Number: 9.1) <br />132 <br />
