Miami Lakes committee creates subcommittee to plan 250th Independence Day activities
Summary
Committee voted to create a subcommittee (pending town approval) to plan activities for the 250th anniversary of U.S. independence on July 4, focusing on vendor quality, band selection and committee involvement.
The Miami Lakes Community Advisory Committee moved on Jan. 14 to create a subcommittee to plan the 250th anniversary of U.S. independence (July 4). The motion instructed staff to coordinate with town departments and to report back on subcommittee dates and membership.
Members said the committee should have input on vendor selection, the quality of food trucks and activity programming, even though the town will pay for fireworks. The motion was amended to make the subcommittee contingent on town approval of a joint CAC/town planning process; members agreed and advanced the direction to the liaison to coordinate schedules.
The committee asked that any subcommittee include broader committee input and to begin sponsor outreach and vendor vetting as soon as possible.
