Summary
An emailed update read into the record said the Miami‑Dade Women’s Leadership Summit missed a Feb. 1 venue deadline and is being rescheduled; the committee is leaning toward Miami Dade College Justice Center, North Campus and will return with confirmed date, venue and sponsor commitments at the March meeting.
The commission read an emailed briefing from the summit committee reporting that organizers missed a Feb. 1 deadline to secure a venue and therefore must reschedule the Miami‑Dade Women’s Leadership Summit. The email, read into the record, identified Dr. Naomi Esteblamua as chair of the summit committee and said the committee was “leaning toward Miami Dade College Justice Center, North Campus, 11380 Northwest 27th Avenue” because it offered favorable dates and cost structure.
The writer of the email said the summit committee would continue outreach to venues and vendors and return to the commission at the March meeting with confirmed summit date, final venue selection, proposed vendors, programming updates, initial sponsor commitments and outreach progress. Commissioners asked if a board member could attend summit committee meetings in the writer’s absence; the chair designated at least one board member to serve as the commission’s representative to the committee.
No formal vote or date change was adopted at the meeting; commissioners requested a written report and a presence from the summit chair or committee representative at the next monthly meeting so the board can review the proposed budget and timeline.
