<br />Summary Minutes: Regular City Commission Meeting <br /> <br />June 21, 2007 <br /> <br />City of Sunny Isles Beach, Florida <br /> <br />12C. Add-On: <br />Discussion regarding Holding City Commission Meetings in August. <br />Action: [City Clerk's Note: See Action under 4A adding this item to agenda.] Mayor <br />Edelcup said that he feels we should run on a 12-month basis the public perception being that <br />when we don't have a meeting in August, the City is closed down when in fact it never really <br />does close down. He said rather than to perpetuate that perception and also to say we are a <br />full time government, he feels we should schedule 12-meetings a year, one for each month. <br />He noted that our Charter provides for at least 11 meetings a year, therefore it leaves us the <br />opportunity of having 12 meetings, and any monthly meeting can be cancelled because of <br />lack of material to come before the Commission. He recommends that we go on a full 12- <br />month schedule of providing for the third Thursday with whatever exceptions we make <br />throughout our scheduling process, so we meet once every month, 12 months of the year. <br /> <br />After discussion it was the consensus ofthe Commission to have 12 Commission meetings a <br />year. <br /> <br />Commissioner Iglesias moved and Commissioner Brezin seconded a motion to schedule <br />Commission meetings in August beginning this year. The motion was approved by a <br />voice vote of 5-0 in favor. [City Clerk's Note: A Resolution will be added to the July 19, <br />2007 Commission Meeting agenda scheduling a Commission meeting on August 16, 2007.] <br /> <br />12D. Add-On: <br />Discussion regarding a Water Park in Town Center Park. <br />Action: Vice Mayor Thaler said he would like somebody to look into putting a water park in <br />the back of Town Center Park, which is not being used at this point. Mayor Ede1cup said <br />that would be part ofthe Capital Projects, and City Manager Szerlag said he is in the middle <br />of budget sessions and he has a note for a water park of which he is getting costs, and that it <br />will be essentially up to the Commission as to how they want to handle that financially. <br /> <br />13.
