OF MIAMI GARDENS, FLORIDA, AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER AND THE CITY CLERK TO EXECUTE AND ATTEST RESPECTIVELY THAT CERTAIN INTER-LOCAL AGREEMENT WITH MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, AUTHORIZING MIAMI-DADE
COUNTY TO ISSUE FILM PERMITS FOR USE OF CITY FACILITIES; PROVIDING FOR THE ADOPTION OF REPRESENTATIONS; PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. Staff Summary: The City of Miami Gardens has been
host to a few small-scale television and film production shoots over the past few years. During During these experiences, City staff identified the need to have certain processes in
place in order to ensure the proper coordination of film activities with various agencies involved. The Miami Dade County Board of County Commissioners passed Ordinance 91-50, in order
to implement a one stop permitting process within the Miami-Dade Office of Film and Entertainment ("Film Office"). The Ordinance allows for the County to enter into inter-local agreements
with the various municipalities within Miami-Dade County in order for the Miami-Dade Film Office to issue a permit for use of municipal property and services. Due to the fact that the
City of Miami Gardens is rarely approached for coordination or approval of professional film activities, it is being proposed that the City partner with the County under their one stop
permitting process. ITEM J-1) CONSENT AGENDA RESOLUTION Film Permit Agreement
1515 NW 167 Street, Building 5 Suite 200 Miami Gardens, Florida 33169 The following are some of the salient provisions: • Term: Five years, commencing ten (10) days from the date of
approval of this agreement by both parties. The County or the City of Miami Gardens may, upon written notice to the other, thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of this agreement,
renew this agreement for a period of five years. • Liaison: The City of Miami Gardens will appoint a representative to act as liaison to the Film Office, and who will coordinate City
facilities and services, and who shall have the authority to authorize the issuance of permits by the County on behalf of the City. • Refusal: The City Manager in his/her discretion
maintains the right to reject any permit application if the City Manager determines that it would not be in the best interest of the City to approve the permit application and the granting
of the permit would not serve to promote the general welfare of the community. • Cooperative Marketing: Marketing: The County agrees to include the City in any cooperative marketing
material which may be issued from the Film Office, and the terms and costs will be determined at the time of production. Further, the County agrees to list the City by name in any reference
to "one stop Permitting and its participating municipalities." Proposed Action: That Council approve the adoption of the attached resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute the
attached inter-local agreement with Miami Dade County Office of Film and Entertainment. Attachment: Attachment A: Inter-local Agreement
