  • South-Florida-Alcohol-Liquor-Licensing-A-Snapshot.Pdf
    South Florida Alcohol and Liquor Licensing – A Snapshot By Valerie L. Haber, Miami Alcohol Law and Food Law Attorney Many clients come to GrayRobinson’s Alcohol Law Group with the misconception that getting a beer and wine license, or liquor license in South Florida, (including the City of Miami, Miami Beach, Fort Lauderdale, Broward County or Palm Beach County,) will be a straightforward process. Before reaching out to us, these clients often find themselves stuck in a holding pattern with state or local agencies, which oftentimes have convoluted and burdensome requirements that must be met before a state alcohol license can be issued. Complicating matters further, local municipal requirements vary greatly. For example, the City of Miami Beach, which includes South Beach, requires that you obtain a Certificate of Use and Business Tax Receipt before you can apply for your state alcohol beverage license. The City of Miami, which includes downtown Miami, the Design District, Wynwood, Coconut Grove, and the Calle Ocho area, requires that multiple local inspections be performed before their zoning department will sign off on a state alcohol beverage application. Navigating these complexities can be tough, but completely manageable once you understand important aspects of the licensing process. Florida Liquor License and Beer and Wine License Types: As a starting point, if you are a new business in South Florida wanting to sell alcohol beverages, including beer, wine, or spirits, you need to determine what type of alcohol or liquor license is appropriate for your intended operations. There are multiple Florida alcohol license types available to you through the Florida Division of Alcoholic Beverages and Tobacco (the “DABT”), including: Beer and wine for on-premise consumption (2COP license): A “2COP” license allows the licensee to sell beer and wine for on-premise consumption.

  • General Information Relative to Miami-Dade County, Florida
    GENERAL INFORMATION RELATIVE TO MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, FLORIDA Set forth below is certain general information concerning County government and certain governmental services provided by the County. History Miami-Dade County, Florida (the “County”) is the largest county in the southeastern United States in terms of population. The County currently covers 2,209 square miles, located in the southeastern corner of the State of Florida (the “State”), and includes, among other municipalities, the cities of Miami, Miami Beach, Coral Gables and Hialeah. In 2007, the population of the County was estimated to have been 2,468,000. The County was created on January 18, 1836 under the Territorial Act of the United States. It included the land area now forming Palm Beach and Broward Counties, together with the land area of the present County. In 1909, Palm Beach County was established from the northern portion of what was then created Dade County. In 1915, Palm Beach County and the County contributed nearly equal portions of land to create what is now Broward County. There have been no significant boundary changes to the County since 1915. County Government The State Legislature in 1955 approved and submitted to a general election a constitutional amendment designed to give a new form of government to the County. The amendment was approved in a statewide general election in November 1956. A Dade County Charter Board was constituted and, in April 1957, completed a draft charter for the County. The proposed charter (the “Charter”) was adopted in a countywide election in May 1957 and became effective on July 20, 1957.

  • Nature-Based Coastal Defenses in Southeast Florida Published by Coral Cove Dune Restoration Project
    Nature-Based Coastal Defenses Published by in Southeast Florida INTRODUCTION Miami Beach skyline ©Ines Hegedus-Garcia, 2013 ssessments of the world’s metropolitan areas with the most to lose from hurricanes and sea level rise place Asoutheast Florida at the very top of their lists. Much infrastructure and many homes, businesses and natural areas from Key West to the Palm Beaches are already at or near sea level and vulnerable to flooding and erosion from waves and storm surges. The region had 5.6 million residents in 2010–a population greater than that of 30 states–and for many of these people, coastal flooding and erosion are not only anticipated risks of tomorrow’s hurricanes, but a regular consequence of today’s highest tides. Hurricane Sandy approaching the northeast coast of the United States. ©NASA Billions of dollars in property value may be swept away in one storm or slowly eroded by creeping sea level rise. This double threat, coupled with a clearly accelerating rate of sea level rise and predictions of stronger hurricanes and continued population growth in the years ahead, has led to increasing demand for action and willingness on the parts of the public and private sectors to be a part of solutions. Practical people and the government institutions that serve them want to know what those solutions are and what they will cost. Traditional “grey infrastructure” such as seawalls and breakwaters is already common in the region but it is not the only option. Grey infrastructure will always have a place here and in some instances it is the only sensible choice, but it has significant drawbacks.

    SECOND EDITION Improving the Connection between Transit and Land Use SOUTH FLORIDA TRANSIT RESOURCE GUIDE June 2015 June 15, 2015 Dear Colleague: The South Florida Regional Transportation Authority (SFRTA) is pleased to introduce the second edition of the South Florida Transit Resource Guide, which demonstrates the vital connection between transportation and land use throughout Broward, Miami-Dade, and Palm Beach Counties. The first edition was well received and was awarded an honorable mention in the 2010 Transportation Planning Excellence Awards sponsored by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Federal Transit Administration (FTA). Decisions involving transportation and land use directly affect our quality of life and the economic vitality of the region. The choices we make influence how much free time we have, where we live and work, our recreational activities, how we travel, the state of our environment, and so much more. The SFRTA seeks to coordinate, develop and implement, in cooperation with all appropriate levels of government, private enterprise and citizens a regional transportation system in South Florida that ensures mobility, the advancement of sustainable growth and improvement in the quality of life for future generations. Increased development around Tri-Rail stations not only positively impacts Tri-Rail ridership, but can also influence regional growth as it pertains to transportation and land use. Station area- development decisions are governed by the city or county in which each station is located. This publication profiles the many factors which affect how the cities and counties promote station- area development. In summary, we hope this document provides the information needed to help communities and organizations make decisions which can improve the connection between land use and transportation.
