The Security Building is a historic site in Miami, Florida. It is located at 117 Northeast 1st Avenue. On January 4, 1989, it was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. The building has 16 floors with a height of 225ft and was built from 1926 to 1927.Design and appearanceThe Security Building faces west onto NE 1st Avenue. It is located in mid-block with buildings on either side. Those buildings are considerably shorter than the Security Building. The building maintains a zero-foot setback, and the entry doors open directly onto the sidewalk. There are no landscape features on the property. The building is composed of a main block parallel to the street, and a second block connected perpendicularly that extends to the east.With only a 50-foot frontage, the architect made a grand statement by creating an almost temple-like base, consisting of the first three stories. Engaged pilasters, that also frame the center bay, articulate the corners creating three distinct bays. Spandrels between the floors are bronze and feature relief ornament. The pilasters carry the entablature, with the name “Security Building” in incised letters. A dentilled molding ornaments the cornice that terminates this division of the building.The fourth floor begins the transition to the high-rise portion of the building. Stone panels with a similar relief accent the corners and separate the bays. Above the windows of the fourth floor is another projecting element, a stringcourse that is ornamented with a guilloche pattern in relief.Floors five through thirteen continue the three bays with window arrangements that are grouped in pairs on each of the end bays, and are grouped in three in the center bay, emphasizing the importance of the center bay to the entire composition. The windows are a metal casement type.

The Citizens’ Independent Transportation Trust (Transportation Trust) is the 15-member body created by Miami-Dade County voters to oversee expenditure of revenue generated by the half-percent Charter County Sales Surtax that funds the transit and roadway projects in the People’s Transportation Plan (PTP). The Transportation Trust is comprised of 15 members appointed by each member of the Board of County Commissioners, the County Mayor and the Miami-Dade League of Cities. The Office of the Citizens' Independent Transportation Trust is the County department that provides professional staff support to the Transportation Trust. The Trust administers the PTP funded Municipal Transportation Program where participating municipalities receive 20% of Surtax funds for transit and roadway projects Significant improvements have been made to the County’s public transit and roadway systems because of the PTP. New buses and Metromover vehicles have been purchased and are in operation. Municipal circulator systems are successfully operating in twenty-six of the participating municipalities. More than 300 miles of roads have been improved, the countywide traffic signalization system has been upgraded and the Metrorail Orange Line extension to the airport is completed and in operation. Because of the PTP, thousands of seniors and eligible veterans enjoy fare free rides on the public transit system. Funding decisions made by the Transportation Trust helped turn the half-cent Surtax into meaningful projects that offer greater mobility options to public transportation users. For more information about the Transportation Trust and the People’s Transportation Plan call 305-375-1357, email [email protected] or visit www.miamidade.gov/ctt.
The Miami-Dade County Homeless Trust was created in 1993 by the Board of County Commissioners with several primary functions: to administer proceeds of the one-percent food and beverage tax; to implement the local continuum of care plan, a three-phased plan, called the Miami-Dade County Community Homeless Plan (the "Plan"); and to serve in an advisory capacity to the Board of County Commissioners on issues involving homelessness. The Trust is not a direct service provider. Instead, it is responsible for the implementation of policy initiatives developed by the 27-member Miami-Dade County Homeless Trust Board, and the monitoring of contract compliance by agencies contracted with the County, through the Trust, for the provision of housing and services for homeless persons. Through its policies and procedures, the Trust also oversees the utilization of the food and beverage tax proceeds dedicated for homeless purposes, as well as other funding sources, to ensure the implementation of the goals of the three-phased pan. Additionally, the Trust has served as lead applicant on behalf of the County for federal and state funding opportunities, and developing and implementing the annual process to identify gaps and needs of the homeless continuum. The Miami-Dade County Community Homeless Plan is well into implementation as a result of directives of the Board, with policies and funding recommendations made to the Board of County Commissioners in support of the Plan.

On January 21, 2010, the Miami-Dade Board of County Commissioners passed an ordinance sponsored by Commissioner Barbara J. Jordan creating a Youth Commission to gather input from local youth and teens on County issues affecting them. The Youth Commission would serve in an advisory capacity to the Board, learn about government, participate in the process of Miami-Dade County government, and represent and articulate the needs of youth in the county. "The Youth Commission will be like a microcosm of the Miami-Dade County Commission, with the members mainly focusing on County programs that would affect children and teenagers," said Commissioner Jordan. "This is a great way to involve our youth in government so they become more involved in their community. The decisions and advice they deliver to us will help my colleagues and I gain a different perspective on youth-targeted issues and programs." The members of the Youth Commission are expected to study problems and hold forums on issues, activities and concerns of youth in Miami-Dade, comment upon existing or proposed legislation, present methods to resolve youth-related conflicts between youth and between youth and adults, submit annual reports of activities to the County Commission and Mayor, and foster an interest in County government among their peers, along with other duties and responsibilities. There is also an emphasis on them serving as the Violence Intervention Program representative for their respective school, as permitted by the Miami-Dade County Public School System, and facilitating an annual Youth Summit in conjunction with the Juvenile Services Department and the South Florida Youth Advisory Board.
