MARGATE COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
FINDINGS AND PROCEDURE FOR VIRTUAL PUBLIC MEETING
The Margate Community Redevelopment Agency (“MCRA”) is holding a virtual public hearing on May 13, 2020 at 4
p.m. This statement explains the MCRA’s findings related to the need to hold the virtual public meeting, and the
ability of the public to access the virtual public meeting.
The MCRA’s findings and procedure for the virtual public meeting are as follows:
• Pursuant to Governor DeSantis’ Executive Orders 20-51 and 20-52, in which the Governor declared a
public health emergency and a state of emergency, there is a recommendation to limit public gatherings.
• On March 20, 2020, Governor DeSantis issued Executive Order 20-69, suspending the quorum
requirements for public meetings held by a local government body, and the requirement that a local government
body must meet at a specific public place.
• Consistent with the authority contained in the Governor’s Executive Orders, and in order to ensure the
health, safety, and welfare of the MCRA’s clients and employees, the MCRA finds that it is in the best interest of the
MCRA to hold this virtual public meeting.
• Therefore, the MCRA will be holding this virtual meeting through the use of electronic communication.
