CITY CLERK ITEMS None City Clerk Item No. 35 City of Coral Gables Page 19 City Commission Meeting Minutes June 9, 2020 L. DISCUSSION ITEMS Mayor Valdes-Fauli: Alright. Well the agenda is done, and I think that Commissioner Mena and rightly wants to discuss our getting to person to person meetings and somebody has to tell us if that's safe or not. I think that if the gyms are open in the swimming pools are open, movies theaters are not open. What is your opinion Mr. City Manager and we have health experts…[Inaudible]. City Manager Iglesias: We're looking at the July meeting to start Mayor, and if there's no issue with that, then City Attorney Ramos: Yes. Our next meeting is July 12th. Mayor Valdes-Fauli: Alright. We’ll do that in person, unless we hear from our health experts saying that is unsafe, is that correct? City Attorney Ramos: Mayor and Commissioners, I wanted to propose, I think what a lot of cities are going to is a hybrid option. Our Commission Chambers is big, but they are not that big. So, we can have the Commissioners, at least three Commissioners in the room with the appointed officials and then the public attend by Zoom or by phone. Is that something that Commission would feel comfortable with, because otherwise we'd have to significantly limit the public in the Chambers. Mayor Valdes-Fauli: I believe that’s more awkward than what we had today Miriam. Maybe we can have the Commission meeting somewhere other than our Chamber. City Attorney Ramos: The problem with that is CGTV has told us it becomes almost impossible to stream the meeting because the cameras aren't set up. So what I don't want to have is a lot of people in the hallway waiting to get into the Chambers, because if we need to have the public six feet from each other, then you have let's say 15 members of the public in the Chamber and then people in the hallway not keeping six feet from each other trying to get into the Chambers. Commissioner Keon: [Inaudible]…be on Zoom. City Attorney Ramos: That’s what I'm saying. A hybrid meeting where at least three members of the commission, appointed officials, and staff members that are presented are in the chambers and then the rest of the public attend by Zoom. Mayor Valdes-Fauli: If that's the way we should do it, then let's do it that way. City Attorney Ramos: That’s worth doing in July; by August 25th, which is our next City of Coral Gables Page 20 City Commission Meeting Minutes June 9, 2020 meeting, hopefully, it can be a traditional meeting. Commissioner Fors: Why don't you Commissioners have to stay back? City Attorney Ramos: They don't have to. We can see a minimum of three in the room, unless the Governor extends the order past June 30th. All five can be in the room, but if only three can make it, and the other two have to be by phone, that would be fine too. The rule - you have to have a quorum in the room. City Manager Iglesias: We’ve got over four weeks to plan and I’m hoping to have expanded options within that time. We certainly can’t have everybody in the Chambers like we had before, but we do have that the tent outside we do have various areas where they can be let in. We would take temperatures of everybody coming in and we're looking to modify that as best as possible. I think there may be additional options available in the next four weeks before the July meeting. City Attorney Ramos: Since we are not meeting between are you all willing to give the Manager the authority to make that final decision on how that July meeting happens? Vice Mayor Lago: Yes. Mayor Valdes-Fauli: Yes. Alright. Thank you. Anything else? Vice Mayor Lago: Yes. Mayor, can you hear me? Mayor Valdes-Fauli: Yeah. Vice Mayor Lago: Okay. I just have a few items that just in closing for the meeting. You know, we have almost a month, hopefully, before we have our first in-person meeting in seems like forever. I wanted to, I did a little bit of research in regard to other cities that are currently holding board meetings, Municipal board meetings, for a litany of different thing for Planning and Zoning, Historical, and the list is pretty significant. I'd like to see just to make sure that we can catch up on some of the backlog issues what staff deems it appropriate and maybe over the next month, we can have virtual board meetings. We haven't had many. I don't think we've had any and if there is a requirement to catch up and get things on the agenda and…[Inaudible]…come to the Commission for approval or at least review. Maybe we can consider having some of the boards, some of the boards have actual virtual board meetings leading up to our next Commission meeting in July. So that's one thing. I also wanted to discuss and bring to the attention of my colleagues. I imagine you're also getting calls about valet being an issue for certain restaurants. You know, I City of Coral Gables Page 21 City Commission Meeting Minutes June 9, 2020 know it's a little bit ambiguous and regards to the county and whether valet is allowed or not. I want to really get down to the bottom of it because if we open up, I think it's, I don't know when they're planning to allow valet, but I'm getting mixed kind of statements from the restaurant who are saying the county allows it. I reviewed the counties documents and it seems to me that it is a little bit up to the interpretation of the city. And I think that's something that we need to really address as quickly as possible, because I mean again, the restaurants are doing the best they can, but they're feeling a lot of stress as you all are aware. And that's basically all I have. Thank you. City Attorney Ramos: I think we need to get some direction. A decision had been made by the Manager to not have advisory board meetings via Zoom, because they are advisory, and it takes a lot of staff time to have Zoom meetings. If the commission would like to change that decision, we need to hear from you; and then with regard to quasi-judicial meeting. The idea was to start them up again in July, not in June and there's already a Planning and Zoning in person meeting being scheduled for the end of July to hear the DPZ rewrite item. So, if the commission wants to have meetings start via Zoom for all boards in June, we need to know that. Vice Mayor Lago: I just think it's a good opportunity, Miriam, because as we proceed now to hopefully have our first in-person meeting in, I think, four months, we are going to have a lot of backlog, there is already a lot of backlog of things that need to be dealt with, and I think these boards need to meet. I leave it up to my colleagues if they think it's appropriate, then we can direct staff to move forward. City Attorney Ramos: With regard to the advisory boards, nothing is being held up. Vice Mayor Lago: The quasi - yes, the quasi-judicial. City Attorney Ramos: Planning and Zoning and Historic, I don't think that the Manager wants to have the DPZ rewrite done virtually, that’s a super significant fairly long item, and I don't know if there's something else that I don't know about. But as far as I know no nothing in particular is being held up. There is one project that they talked to us, and we told them that they would be going in early August. Vice Mayor Lago: What I will do, Miriam, is I will get you a list. I’ve gotten about three emails from different people who have requested, and I will forward them to you. City Attorney Ramos: Okay. City of Coral Gables Page 22 City Commission Meeting Minutes June 9, 2020 City Manager Iglesias: We are not aware of that. But the DPZ rewrite, we want to do it in July, we are not doing it virtual, because it’s such a lengthy and important item. Mayor Valdes-Fauli: Anything else? City Attorney Ramos: So, we will not be adjourning the meeting. We will be going into an Executive Shade Session, if everyone’s done. Mayor Valdes-Fauli: Wait. I agree with the Vice Mayor that valet parking is very, very important for our restaurants. We have elderly people, and I think it’s very important. I’d like to…[Inaudible]… City Attorney Ramos: We’ll look at the handbook. My recollection is that it was not permitted in the county, but we’ll doublecheck. Mayor Valdes-Fauli: Okay. Thank you very much. City Manager Iglesias: We are going by the county standards, so we are looking at what the county allows and that’s my understanding also. Once it becomes allowed, we will certainly activate it. Mayor Valdes-Fauli: Because it’s very, very important for our restaurants. I agree with the Vice Mayor. Anything else? Meeting adjourned. City Attorney Ramos: No, the meeting cannot be adjourned, we have to go into the Shade Session. Mayor Valdes-Fauli: Okay, it’s not adjourned. City Clerk Item No. 36 M.
