ELECTION
2010
OVERTOWN ADVISORY BOARD/
OVERTOWN COMMUNITY OVERSIGHT BOARD
ELECTION RESULTS
The Overtown Advisory Board/Overtown
Community Oversight Board (OAB/OCOB) was created
to encourage and support historic preservation
and provide recommendations to the City
Commission regarding all City funded or assisted
activities, developments, or improvements within
the Overtown area.
An election was
scheduled for August 24, 2010 for five (5)
available elected member seats on the OAB/OCOB.
Only five (5) people were nominated and then
subsequently deemed qualified during the
November 28th, 2006 qualifying meeting.
Therefore, per City of Miami Code section 16-8,
the election was not required and the five
nominees should thus be declared elected. They
are:
Feleshia Burden Derek Cole Andrea
Copeland Terrance Cribbs-Lorrant Reginald
Munnings
Pursuant to Miami Code Section 2-105, the City
Commission at large must ratify the elected
individuals to be appointed as members of the
OAB/OCOB. This item has been placed on the agenda
of the September 16, 2010 Commission Meeting.
As the 2010 campaign season
heats up, many candidates seeking future offices
have asked for another training session on election
and fundraising regulations. They can get it next
month at the Campaign Skills Seminar sponsored by
the Miami-Dade Commission on Ethics and Public
Trust. Many Miami-Dade municipalities – including
some of the largest – will hold elections in 2011.
Now is the time for candidates, campaign staff
members and volunteers to learn the rules for
running a clean race.
