CITY OF MIAMI
ACTION/DECISION REQUEST
COUNCIL MEETING DATE: 12/01/2020
AGENDA TITLE: Resolution 2020-23 Amending Council Resolution CC2017-17 &
CC2018-11 Delegating All Claims Payments Within Budget to the City
Manager With Mayor’s Written Approval During Extraordinary
Circumstances
BACKGROUND:
Per Resolution CC2017-17 and CC2018-11, the currently City manager has specific claims payment authority today:
1. The City Manager or designee shall have the authority to negotiate, approve and execute contracts that
correspond with the fiscal year’s budget capacity; and
2. The City Manager shall have the authority to approve claims for payment and may issue payment for the
same; and
3. The financial commitments and/or payments made under the authority granted hereunder shall not
exceed a cumulative unpaid total of twenty thousand dollars ($20,000.00) absent the approving vote of a
majority of a quorum of the Miami City Council at a regular or special meeting thereof and an additional
twenty thousand dollars ($20,000.00) with the mayor’s written approval, provided that this provision is in
addition to the powers of the City Manager in the case of a declared emergency as set out in 61 O. S. §
130; and
4. The City Manager shall be obligated to make report of actions taken under this authority at the regular
meeting next following said actions; and
5. This Resolution may be revoked or amended at any time by vote of a majority of a quorum of the Miami
City Council at a regular or special meeting, but such revocation or amendment shall not impair the
validity of claims approval, claims payment or execution of contract(s) for performances and/or
professional services made previously in compliance herewith.
Besides the minor changes in in red on #2 and #3, the requested addition, as #4, would allow, in extraordinary

of the City Council cannot legally be held, whether due to a lack of quorum, or otherwise, the City
Manager or designee, with the Mayor’s written approval, shall have the authority to approve all or some
pending budgeted expenditures. The Mayor’s approval is an ongoing approval, subject to the Mayor’s

meeting; and”

ORDINANCE NO. 2020-08
AN ORDINANCE OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MIAMI,
OKLAHOMA ENACTING SECTION 13-3 (MASKS REQUIRED ON CITY FACILITIES
AND PROPERTY) OF ARTICLE I (IN GENERAL) OF CHAPTER 13
(MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS AND OFFENSES) OF THE CODE OF
ORDINANCES; PROVIDING SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTING
PROVISIONS; AND ESTABLISHING AN EMERGENCY.
I. Purpose. The Miami City Council finds that the current COVID-19 pandemic requires the
emergency adoption of certain preventative measures to protect the health, safety and welfare of
the citizens of the City of Miami and surrounding areas.
II. Findings of Fact.
A. The world is experiencing an outbreak of a respiratory disease caused by the
SARS-CoV-2 virus (“COVID-19"), and
B. On March 11, 2020 the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the corona
virus COVID-19 disease to be a pandemic; and
C. On March 13, 2020 the President of the United States declared a National
Emergency; due to the COVID-19 Virus pandemic; and
D. On March 15, 2020, the Governor of the State of Oklahoma declared an
emergency caused by the impending threat of COVID-19 to the people of this State and the
public's peace, health and safety; and
E. On March 21, 2020 the City Council of the City of Miami declared a health
disaster caused by the COVID-19 virus pandemic; and
F. There is currently not available a vaccine or cure for COVID 19; and
G. According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention ("CDC"), the virus
spreads between people who are within six feet of one another and through respiratory droplets
produced when an infected person coughs, sneezes, talks, sings or raises their voice; and
H. The CDC recommends that all people two years of age and older wear face
coverings when in public settings and around people who do not live in the same household,
particularly when other social distancing measures cannot be maintained; and
I. The CDC also recommends that people limit close contact with others outside of
the same household by maintaining a distance of at least six feet between yourself and others, in
both indoor and outdoor spaces; and
J. With the transmission of COVID-19 and related hospitalizations continuing to
increase across Oklahoma, including in the City of Miami and Ottawa County, The City Council
recognizes that provisions to protect the life and health of residents and employees of the City of
Miami as set forth below are essential; and
K. It is the continuing duty of the City Council to protect the health and safety of the
City, its inhabitants and employees, to preserve the workings of the core functions of
government, and to do so the City of Miami has a special obligation to keep its employees as
safe as possible during this pandemic; and
L. To date, the City of Miami has had 32 non-first responder employees test positive
for COVID-19 and 15 first responders that were forced to follow the CDC Guidelines for First
Responders; and
M. In addition, to date, the City of Miami has had 70 employees quarantined for 14
days each due to exposure to the COVID-19 virus, with another 69 employees identified as
Page 1 of 4
having a possible exposure, which did not require a quarantine at that point under CDC
Guidelines; and
N. To date, based on the two preceding findings, the City of Miami has had to pay
4,749 hours of COVID-19 related FERCA Emergency Sick Leave at a cost to the City and its
taxpayers of $71,016.42; and
O. Article 2, Section 6, subparagraph 2 of the City Charter provides that the Council
may enact municipal legislation subject to limitations as may now or hereafter be imposed by the
Oklahoma Constitution and law; and
P. The Oklahoma Emergency Management Act of 2003, 63 O.S. §§683.1, et seq.,
and 11 O.S. § 22-120 authorizes the City Council, in the interest of public health, safety and
welfare to make such other orders as are imminently necessary for the protection of life and
property; and
Q. The City Council clearly understands that there is a very vocal segment of the
citizenry that feels any mandate in the public health interest by the Council would be an
unconstitutional infringement of their individual rights as citizens; however, the Council also
notes that over a century ago, in a case dealing with the Commonwealth mandating vaccinations
to stop the spread of the smallpox epidemic, the U. S. Supreme Court ruled in the case of
Jacobson v. Massachusetts, 197 U. S. 11, 25 S. Ct. 358, 49 L. ED. 643, that such a mandate
is constitutional and appropriate. The Court said:
The defendant insists that his liberty is invaded when the State
subjects him to fine or imprisonment for neglecting or refusing to
submit to vaccination; that a compulsory vaccination law is
unreasonable, arbitrary and oppressive, and, therefore, hostile to
the inherent right of every freeman to care for his own body and
health in such way as to him seems best, and that the execution of
such a law against one who objects to vaccination, no matter for
what reason, is nothing short of an assault upon his person. But the
liberty secured by the Constitution of the United States to
every person within its jurisdiction does not import an absolute
right in each person to be, at all times and in all circumstances,
wholly freed from restraint. There are manifold restraints to
which every person is necessarily subject for the common good.
On any other basis, organized society could not exist with safety to
its members. Society based on the rule that each one is a law
unto himself would soon be confronted with disorder and
anarchy. Real liberty for all could not exist under the
operation of a principle which recognizes the right of each
individual person to use his own, whether in respect of his
person or his property, regardless of the injury that may be
done to others. . . .
Even liberty itself, the greatest of all rights, is not unrestricted
license to act according to one's own will. It is only freedom from
restraint under conditions essential to the equal enjoyment of the
same right by others. . . .
Upon the principle of self-defense, of paramount necessity, a
community has the right to protect itself against an epidemic of
disease which threatens the safety of its members.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE MAYOR AND CITY
COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MIAMI, OKLAHOMA:
Section 1 - New Law
Page 2 of 4
Section 13-3 of the Code of Ordinances is enacted to read as follows:
Masks required on City facilities and property.
Effective immediately, and except as otherwise provided herein, all persons on property,
including buildings and office space, owned or leased by the City of Miami, Oklahoma, shall
wear a facial covering or mask (as deemed appropriate by CDC Guidelines) over the mouth and
nose at all times where physical distancing measures may be difficult to observe. This only
applies to persons while indoors or when in an outdoor space, wherever it is not feasible to
maintain six feet of social distance from another person. Facial coverings or masks are not
required in the following circumstances:
A. In state owned and leased vehicles, if only occupied by one occupant;
B. When a person is alone in an enclosed space, such as an individual office;
C. When the individual has a bona fide religious objection to wearing a facial
covering or mask;
D. While eating or drinking;
E. When a licensed healthcare provider has determined that wearing a facial
covering or mask causes or aggravates a health condition for the individual;
F. When wearing a facial covering or mask would prevent the receipt of services or
performing work in the course of employment;
G. When complying with the directions of law enforcement or for the purposes of
verifying a person's identity; and
H. Children under the age of 10.
Enforcement of this ordinance shall focus first on educating and working to promote the
mitigation of the spread of COVID-19. A person entering or remaining in a City facility in
violation of this ordinance shall be notified of the provisions of this ordinance and will be
provided an opportunity to explain an exception to this ordinance. If the person not wearing a
mask, does not provide an exception as provided in this ordinance, they shall be offered a mask
or the option to leave the location. If the person fails or refuses to do either of these, then any
and all City employee(s), except duly authorized law enforcement officers, dealing with that
individual shall refuse to service or otherwise deal further with the individual. If the individual
further refuses to wear a mask or leave the City facility, they may be subject to a criminal
citation and be subject to prosecution under criminal trespass (§ 13-49), disturbing the peace
(§13-116), interference with an officer (§13-223) or similar offenses as the circumstances
warrant.
It is the intent of the City Council that this ordinance is to be temporary in nature. It is
therefore intent of this enacting City Council that when the emergency nature of the pandemic
which has given rise to the necessity of this ordinance is deemed to be over, in the opinion of the
then existing City Council, that such Council repeal this ordinance.
Section 2 - Severability
If any provision, paragraph, word, section or article of this Ordinance is invalidated by
any court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions, paragraphs, words, sections and
chapters shall not be affected and shall continue in full force and effect.
Section 3 - Conflicting Provisions
Page 3 of 4
If any provision, paragraph, word, section or article of this Ordinance conflicts with the
provisions of any other Ordinance, then the provisions of this Ordinance shall be deemed to have
superseded all conflicting provisions previously entered into effect.
Section 4 - Effective Date
[Choose One (1)]
__________ Pursuant to 11 O.S. §14-103, this Ordinance shall take effect thirty (30) days from
its final passage unless the City Council specifies a later date:
______________________________________________________________________________
[OR]
__________ EMERGENCY CLAUSE. For the immediate preservation of the public peace,
health and safety, an emergency is hereby declared to exist whereby this Ordinance shall take
effect immediately upon passage and publication as required by law. The question of emergency
must be ruled upon separately and approved by the affirmative vote of at least ¾ of ALL the
members of the City Council (4 affirmative votes required). As required by 11 O.S. §14-103, an
emergency measure must state in a separate section why it is necessary that the measure become
effective immediately; the reason for the emergency measure is as follows:
The immediate implementation of this ordinance is essential to protect the health
and safety of the City, its inhabitants and employees and to preserve the workings
of the core functions of government, and to do so the City of Miami has a special
obligation to keep its employees as safe as possible during this pandemic.
PASSED AND APPROVED this 1st day of December 2020.
