Short Title:
A resolution of the City Commission of the City of Opa-locka to authorizing the repeal of Ordinance No. 2023-
03 and re-establishing the subsection of Article II, Division 2, Section 2-45 entitled "future agenda items"
Staff Summary:
Ordinance 2023-03 amended Article II, Division 2, Section 2-45 entitled "agenda" to delete all references to
"future agenda items". Previously adopted by Ordinance 20-12, the addition of the subsection "future agenda
items" to the City Commission agenda provided the City Administration with the opportunity to conduct
adequate research and focus on commission items that has a majority vote prior to being placed on the
agenda for a final vote. The repeal of this Ordinance will ensure that agenda items can be properly structured
and will include the intent of the legislation with the guidance of the City Commission. There shall also be a
revision in the submission timeline to ensure City Administration can meet the deadlines . The current
DocuSign Envelope ID: 034EB04A-9C8D-4415-A82A-1EF4032051BD
schedule causes conflict and does not provide sufficient time between the previous meeting and the
submission of agenda items for the next Commission meeting.
Financial Impact: There is no financial impact for this item.
Proposed Action:
Staff recommends the City Commission the repeal of Ordinance No. 2023-03 and re-establishing the
subsection of Article II, Division 2, Section 2-45 entitled "future agenda items".

A federal indictment says a Miami man used the mails to threaten the life of a federal
judge.
An inmate (rape, murder)
threatened to kill a Miami
federal judge, indictment says
BY DAVID 1. NEAL
dneal@miamiheratd.com
Murder is among the
reasons Miami's Marcus
Pratt now lives in a Florida
prison, and murder is
what a federal court in-
dictment says Pratt threat-
ened a Miami federal
judge with in letters sent
last year.
The three letters, ac-
cording to the indictment
filed last week, were
handwritten and signed by
Pratt.
Pratt is charged with
three counts of mailing
threatening communi-
cations and three counts
of influencing, impeding
or retaliating against a
federal judge. Each count
carries a possible sentence
of 10 years, although max-
imum sentences rarely are
given.
Since 2010, the 38 -year -
old Pratt — aka Jamal
Pratt, Marquis Pratt, Do-
novan Reed — has been in
Florida Department of
Corrections custody at
Okaloosa Correctional
Institution in Crestview.
In the 10 months after he
finished an eight -month
prison stint for grand
theft, robbery and moving
cocaine, Pratt sold cocaine
too close to a school; kid-
napped and raped some-
one; then committed sec-
ond-degree murder.
He was sentenced on
Feb. 15, 2010. Online
corrections records put
Pratt's scheduled release
at June 17, 2033. Visitation
for him has been suspend-
ed.
LETTERS FROM
OKALOOSA JAIL?
The indictment didn't
make clear what connec-
tion exists between Pratt
and U.S. District Court
Judge Kevin M. Moore.
The target of the letters is
named only by the initials
"K.M.M." in the indict-
ment.
Moore did his under-
graduate work at Florida
State University before
moving on to Fordham
Law, where he graduated
in 1976. He has been a
federal judge since being
nominated by President
George H.W. Bush in 1992
and was chief judge from
2014 through 2021.
The indictment says the
first letter, dated Aug. 2,
2023, was addressed to a
"Chief Judge" at the fed-
eral courthouse said
Pratt's "associates would
"kill" Moore. A Sept. 27
letter addressed to Moore,
the indictment said, re-
peated the earlier threat to
kill Moore and added
whoever else happened to
be home at the time. The
Oct. 10 letter addressed to
Moore, the indictment
said, promised that Pratt's
pals would kill Moore
"very soon."
