SUBJECT:DISCUSSION OF THE YOUTH COMMISSION’S MOTION URGING THAT AN EMAIL BE SENT TO ALL BUSINESSES WITH A BUSINESS TAX RECEIPT (BTR) IN MIAMI BEACH ASKING FOR INTEREST IN PARTICIPATING IN A YOUTH JOB FAIR PROMOTING TEEN EMPLOYMENT AND INTERNSHIPS FOR THE 2018-19 SUMMER AND SCHOOL YEAR.

ANALYSIS

On April 24, 2018, the members of the Youth Commission adopted a motion urging the Mayor and Commission to support their request for the Administration to send an email to all businesses with a Business Tax Receipt (BTR) in Miami Beach asking for interest in participating in a youth job fair promoting teen employment and internships for the 2018-19 summer and school year. The youth job fair could extend to neighboring municipalities as well. (See LTC # 226-2018 attached hereto.)

 

This is valuable suggestion that should be supported by the Mayor and Commission. During the May 16, 2018 Commission meeting, I would like to discuss the Youth Commission’s proposal and its implementation.
