<br />Summary Minutes: Regular City Commission Meeting February 21, 2008 <br /> <br />City of Sunny Isles Beach, Florida <br /> <br />resolution, we need a second resolution to transfer the funds and that is what we are doing <br />here, and Mayor Edelcup said that is correct, this is saying the source of the funding is going <br />to come, and the only place it can come from is surplus. City Manager Szerlag said in an <br />example is that more often then not what you will see is a recommendation and in the <br />recommendation letter the last paragraph of every memo indicates one of two things, funds <br />are available in a certain account number, or an amendment will be required. <br /> <br />City Manager Szerlag noted that Assistant City Manager Haag is not here tonight because his <br />son, Matt, was called to a second tour of duty in Iraq and he is leaving on Saturday, and so he <br />went up to see him in Georgia, and the Commission wished him well. <br /> <br />Mayor Edelcup said that we need an approval of the resolution as it is presented, with a <br />reminder that next month we will handle the reverse side of this. <br /> <br />Isaac Aelion asked for clarification, as the other allocations are at par with what was passed <br />by the various resolutions tonight, the OSS contract is practically half of what was approved <br />as stated in the packet, and he also noticed that the approval was capped at $173,000. Ms. <br />Simpson responded that the $65,000 is based on the amount of $125,000 being our <br />maximum paid out to OSS less the $60,000 that we already have, $30,000 from our one <br />sponsor that we currently have, and $30,000 that we were allocating for fireworks that we <br />will now not have, and so the difference is $65,000 which is the budget transfer. She said <br />that the estimate for City staff is Police on the alpha bravo shift for that weekend, and those <br />we will do after the fact after we know what those hard costs really are, and if we need to, if <br />we have sponsors to cover that there may not be another, and Mayor Edelcup said hopefully <br />we will have additional sponsors. Ms. Simpson said that $65,000 will cover the contract <br />amount that we are obligating ourselves to tonight with OSS. <br /> <br />Commissioner Scholl moved a motion to approve the resolution. Resolution No. 2008- <br />1234 was adopted by a voice vote of 4-0-1 (Vice Mayor Thaler absent) in favor. <br /> <br />11. MOTIONS <br /> <br />None <br /> <br />12.
