Dear Friends and Neighbors,

Today, the City Commission voted unanimously to send a ballot question=to voters in November to terminate outdoor alcohol sales and consumption o= Ocean Drive from 5th Street to 15th Street at 2:00 a.m. instead of =:00 a.m. This does not include indoor portions of hotels.

Ocean Drive's raucous atmosphere negatively impacts residents an= erodes the Miami Beach brand, all year long. I want to bring back Ocean D=ive to its glory days, so it can be enjoyed by families and residents. To =ccomplish this goal, we need to create a safe atmosphere so all people can=enjoy Lummus Park and the restaurants fronting Ocean Drive. Limiting alcoh=l sales after 2 a.m. will decrease alcohol fueled violence and crime that =ccurs in these late night hours.

Ocean Drive now has the highest concentration of police resources in t=e City. In June of 2014, when Chief Oates took office, there were no signi=icant full-time resources dedicated to Ocean Drive or the entertainme=t district. Chief Oates has reorganized the department and dedicated resou=ces specifically to address crime and quality-of-life issues. Due to these=efforts, major crime has dropped nearly 16% in 2016 and crime continues to=trend downward in 2017. In the last six weeks, five out of ten officers de=ignated to Ocean Drive have been injured protecting this area. Throwing mo=e dollars into policing will not solve this problem. Last year the police =orce spent $814,812 to keep Ocean Drive safe after 2 a.m., however, the ci=y only collected $197,892 in resort taxes for sales made between 2 a.m. an= 5 a.m.

Today, I also brought forth an ordinance to remove the noise ord=nance exemption on Ocean Drive from 5th Street to 15th Street. This prohib=ts music from being projected from properties into the street and sidewalk= By reducing excessive noise in the streets, the atmosphere will be toned =own. Today, the Commission approved changing package

liquor sales in the e=tertainment district from 8 a.m. to midnight to 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. As a Co=mission, we will be looking at introducing legislation that will roll back=package liquor sales even further, to prohibit package liquor sales after = p.m. in this area. By addressing noise and alcohol sales together, we are=one step closer to realizing a new vision for this iconic district.

Sincerely,

Philip Levine &=bsp; =
Mayor of Miami Beach
