Committee votes to restrict some sponsored field trips and bus trips to Miami Lakes residents via Eventbrite
Summary
To prioritize town residents for costlier outings, the committee voted to require address fields and label certain Eventbrite registrations as restricted to Miami Lakes residents for bus trips and off-site activities.
The Miami Lakes Senior Committee voted to require Eventbrite registrations for certain outings (notably bus trips and off-site field trips) to include address verification and to restrict registration language to Miami Lakes residents when the committee pays for transportation or tickets.
Members said the restriction is intended to ensure limited public funds and sponsored resources go first to residents. The committee clarified this would be a deterrent rather than a strict verification process: staff will require addresses in Eventbrite listings and clearly state Miami Lakes residency as a priority; if space remains shortly before an event staff may open remaining spots to non-residents.
The motion passed by voice vote with no recorded opposition. Staff were directed to update Eventbrite listings for upcoming bus trips and the Lauderhill play trip accordingly.
