COMMISSION MEMORANDUM

TO:Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission 
FROM:Vice-Mayor Steven Meiner 
DATE:November  18, 2020
 



SUBJECT:DISCUSS, AND TAKE ACTION IF NECESSARY, PRO-RATING 2021 BTR FEES FOR LIQUOR LICENSES DURING THE REMAINDER OF THE COVID-19 STATE OF EMERGENCY.

ANALYSIS

Miami-Dade County and the City of Miami Beach implemented a midnight curfew as part of its emergency measures to mitigate the spread of the virus. Businesses who have BTRs for alcohol licenses are unable to utilize their BTRs after midnight. Therefore, it is equitable for the City of Miami Beach to provide a pro rata credit for the amount of time businesses are unable to use their BTRs.
