Community Development board adds interest earnings, professional‑services line for Miami Gardens Performing Arts Center design
Summary
The Miami Gardens Community Development Agency board approved a budget amendment adding projected interest earnings on the revenue side and a professional‑services expenditure line for development and design of the Miami Gardens Performing Arts Center; the board said the amended budget remains balanced and approved it 6-0.
The Miami Gardens Community Development Agency board approved an amended budget July 9 that adds projected interest earnings on the revenue side and creates a professional‑services expenditure line for costs tied to development and design of the Miami Gardens Performing Arts Center.
The change “still presents a balanced budget,” a staff member told the board while presenting the amendment, and the board then voted to approve the revision. The motion passed on a roll call vote of 6-0.
The amendment adds projected interest earnings to the revenue estimates and establishes a professional‑services line item to cover costs associated with development and the design of the Miami Gardens Performing Arts Center. Board members did not state any dollar amounts or a timeline for expenditures during the presentation.
Board members moved and seconded the item and the clerk recorded votes for Board member Leon, Board member Powell, Board member Wilson, Board member Julian, Board member Baskin and Chair Harris. Chair Harris announced, “I vote yes. Motion passes 6 0.”
No additional details about contract terms, consultant names, or the schedule for the design work were provided at the meeting. The board did not attach a funding schedule in the public presentation; the staff presenter characterized the amendment as keeping the budget balanced and asked for the board’s approval.
The board adjourned the Community Development Agency portion of the meeting immediately after the vote.
