Committee agrees to coordinate senator-sponsored bus trips for seniors on May 21 and July 23
Summary
Miami Lakes Senior Committee voted to coordinate two bus trips funded by Senator Garcia's office; committee will not pay ticket costs and will open registration as directed by the sponsor.
The Miami Lakes Senior Committee agreed to coordinate two bus trips funded by Sen. Garcia's office for May 21 and July 23, with registration logistics to be handled through the sponsor's office and Eventbrite.
Committee members said the sponsor will cover bus costs if organizers notify the office at least 30 days before each trip; the committee confirmed it will not be responsible for ticket costs and will handle coordination only.
The committee discussed participant limits and open registration. A committee member clarified the sponsor will accept attendees beyond Miami Lakes residents (the sponsor's priority is receiving head counts and confirming availability), and the committee decided to publicize the sponsored trips while noting the sponsor's registration requirements.
A motion to coordinate the trips passed without recorded opposing votes. The committee instructed staff to confirm final counts with the sponsor and to post the Eventbrite registration information once the sponsor confirms logistics.
The committee also instructed staff to confirm whether sponsor payments will be issued directly to service providers or reimbursed to the town and to report that detail back at the next meeting.
