Community Redevelopment Agency Summary Agenda October 14, 2020
The Margate Community Redevelopment Agency (MCRA) is holding a virtual public hearing on October 14, 2020, at
5:00 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.
• On September 30, 2020, Governor DeSantis issued Executive Order 20-246, extending Executive Order 20-69, as
extended by Executive Orders 20-112, 20-123, 20-139, 20-150 and amended by Executive Orders 20-179 and
20-193, until 12:01 a.m. November 1, 2020.
• 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 their best interests to
hold this virtual public meeting.
• Therefore, the MCRA will be holding this virtual meeting through the use of electronic communications. Members
