New Courthouse Miami-Dade Commission Vote
Tuesday, December 3, 2019
Stephen P. Clark Center, 111 N.W. 1 Street, Miami Florida 33128
Sign up to speak begins at 9 am.
It is imperative that we all show up in force in order to be heard in favor of the new Courthouse. Note: A speaker card must be completed between 9 am and no later than 9:30 am. By completing a speaker card, you can be called at the beginning of the meeting, so those of you with other demands on your time that day can be called as early as possible.
Miami-Dade County is about to embark on a progressive and forward-thinking public/private partnership for a new courthouse in downtown Miami. This plan has been thoroughly vetted and evaluated and now is up for a final vote. This is it – the final chance for approval of the new courthouse, something we have all been trying to obtain for many years. Please share this email with your partners, colleagues, friends, clients and anyone else you believe will lend support. We need to show up at the commission hearing.
Please RSVP if you plan to attend or if you have fellow supporters that you know will be in attendance. We need everyone’s email in order to stay in touch that morning.

Additionally, attached is a list of the contact information for the Mayor and Commissioners. Please write, email and call to thank them for their progressive plan to approve this new courthouse. We need ABOTA to rise to the occasion and make this reality. Please, volunteer!
