The discussion also included the issue of transit in Miami-Dade. A discussion ensued regarding the traditional holiday party, which is scheduled for December 13, 2013 at 12:30 pm at Havana Harry’s. General Discussion Items –Future of Public Transit Access in Miami-Dade County - Ysela Llort, Director, Miami-Dade Transit (MDT) - A presentation was made by Ms. Ysela Llort, Director, Miami-Dade Transit (MDT). Ms. Llort informed SEDC Members that MDT moves 107 million people per year and provides economic development opportunities through development and redevelopment. MDT is the largest transit agency in Florida and the 12th largest in the nation running four modes of transportation; Metrobus, Metrorail, Metromover, and Special Transportation Services for individuals with special needs or disabilities. Ms. Llort spoke to the Members about Transit Oriented Developments (TOD) where transit services are anchored with mixed use and economic development, i.e. residential and commercial and/or retail. TODs are done through public-private partnerships. MDT provides the land to developers through leases, which generate revenue for MDT. TODs generate over $3,000,000 in revenue annually for MDT and enhances the area economy. The developers get prime location and potential customers and/or residents as a result of location and consumer traffic. Current MDT TODs provide 2,344,000 square feet of office space, 403,100 square feet of retail space, 960 residential units (158 market rate and 802 affordable housing), and 4,746 parking spaces (garage and surface). Ms. Llort informed SEDC Members about the developing Brickell City Centre TOD that will have 5.4 million square feet of office, residential, hotel, retail and entertainment space, in addition to a two-level underground parking garage that will span seven acres below the property. The development is projected to an economic impact of $1billion. MDT is also trying to do more pedestrian friendly developments, Bus Rapid Transit Corridors, and Miami Beach Corridor Transit Connection. The future of transit in Miami-Dade County and the future for MDT includes: a Miami Intermodal Center which will include Metrorail, Tri-Rail, Amtrak, Metrobus, taxis, Rental Car Facility, and a possible speed train connection; and Downtown Miami Connections that will include All Aboard Florida, Port Miami, Metrorail, MIA via Metrorail, Metromover. Ms. Llort stated that transit and transit developments fosters improved/increased mobility, job creation, improved access to goods and services, and an improved economy. A brief discussion/question and answer period followed Ms. Llort’s presentation. Mr. Kerbel invited Ms. Llort to become a part of the organization Move On. The Economic Benefits of Ending the 5% Employee Contribution to Health Insurance- Dr. Terry Murphy (PAC) - Dr. Terry Murphy made a presentation to the SEDC members regarding the 5% employee contribution to health insurance costs. He stated that he is standing with the Unions in requesting the BCC end the employee contribution. Dr. Murphy requested assistance from the SEDC in demonstrating/confirming ending the 5% employee contribution to health insurance costs will have a rippling positive effect on the Miami-Dade economy. He stated the initial contribution to the economy would be $60million the first year, and then a repetitive contribution of $80million subsequent years, and that Miami-Dade County would benefit more from the 5% being circulated in the local economy versus being used for the health care contribution. Dr. Murphy clarified the actual employee contribution is 16%. A discussion/question and answer period ensued. Following Dr. Murphy’s presentation, the Council discussed preparing a recommendation/letter for the BCC regarding the continuation or ending of the 5% employee contribution to health care costs. Due to a scheduling conflict with Ms. Rhonda Victor Sibilia, Ethics training for SEDC Members will be rescheduled for a future meeting. Meeting adjourned at 4:30pm.

  • David Wallack Interview
    David Wallack Interview Kathy Hersh: Today is the 3rd of October 2017. We are interviewing David Wallack in Mangos for the Miami Beach Visual Memoirs Project. Okay, so this is going to be very conversational. You're going to tell us the story of Mangos starting with the beginning. David Wallack: Do you want it from Mangos or do you want it from 1955? Interviewer: Start at 1955. Is that the year you were born? Wallack: No I was seven years old at the time and that's when we came to Miami Beach. Interviewer: Your whole family came? Wallack: Yes, my parents, my two sisters and I. We moved down from New York. We lived in Queens, in Yorktown heights-- had the Wallack family home, I will say--my grandmothers estate, and then came down to Miami Beach and we lived at 952 Collins Avenue. One block over and one building in. My father in the same year bought this building 900 Ocean Drive and so we had both 852 Collins Avenue and then also 900 Ocean Drive beginning in 1955. Interviewer: What brought them down there? What made them decide to move down there? Wallack: My mothers' family all of a sudden migrated a couple of years before that, and my father's business in Yonkers--a jewelry casting business--went under. Certainly I was only at that time five, six years old, seven when we actually moved, but my father had even come down on an exploratory kind of a trip with my grandparents--my mothers' mother and father, and fell in love with Miami Beach.

  • Destination Casinos in South Florida: Findings of Fact and Recommendations
    Destination Casinos in South Florida: Findings of Fact and Recommendations The Dr. Antonio Jorge Social and Economic Development Council, Miami-Dade County Advisory Board ABSTRACT This presentation intends to share the relevant experience of other cities around the world in dealing with casinos. If destination casinos do come, what are the terms that would be best for the people of Miami-Dade County and the State of Florida? Destination casinos attract visitors from outside of the locality where they are located. Only about 15% of the gamblers in casinos in Atlantic City and Las Vegas are local residents, but 83% of the gamblers on riverboats in Illinois are local. South Florida already has casinos directed toward local people. The current debate is about destination casinos that would attract affluent tourists. This document does not take any position regarding whether we should have destination casinos or not, but we want to show what the consequences might be for allowing the new forms of gambling.

Simone 2 To Michael and Tessa 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS A driver fails without the support of a solid team, and I thank my friends, who supported me lap-after-lap. I learned a great deal from my advisor Jack Davis, who when he was not providing helpful feedback on my work, was always willing to toss the baseball around in the park. I must also thank committee members Sean Adams, Betty Smocovitis, Stephen Perz, Paul Ortiz, and Richard Crepeau as well as University of Florida faculty members Michael Bowen, Juliana Barr, Stephen Noll, Joseph Spillane, and Bill Link. I respect them very much and enjoyed working with them during my time in Gainesville. I also owe many thanks to Dr. Julian Pleasants, Director Emeritus of the Samuel Proctor Oral History Program, and I could not have finished my project without the encouragement provided by Roberta Peacock. I also thank the staff of the Samuel Proctor Oral History Program. Finally, I will always be grateful for the support of David Danbom, Claire Strom, Jim Norris, Mark Harvey, and Larry Peterson, my former mentors at North Dakota State University. A call must go out to Tom Schmeh at the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame, Suzanne Wise at the Appalachian State University Stock Car Collection, Mark Steigerwald and Bill Green at the International Motor Racing Resource Center in Watkins Glen, New York, and Joanna Schroeder at the (former) Ethanol Promotion and Information Council (EPIC).
