City of Miami – Demand Letter

Chaz Stevens, CLE Faculty.

Fourth demand letter in the statewide campaign, served on Miami City Attorney George K. Wysong III, targeting the City’s structural entanglement with Calle Ocho Music Festival — the largest Hispanic street festival in the United States, organized by the Kiwanis Club of Little Havana. Identifies three statutory prongs: official action (Mayor Suarez’s 2020 cancellation authority; February 2026 Calle Ocho BID resolution), public funding (police, fire, sanitation, permitting), and municipal promotion (City social media, tourism platforms, press materials). Accompanied by a 9-custodian omnibus Chapter 119 PRR covering the City Clerk, City Attorney, Special Events, Parks, Budget, Communications, MPD, Fire-Rescue/Public Works, and Economic Development.
