The park’s construction will be com-pleted in multiple phases. The initial phasewill include the infrastructure, landscaping,walkways, restrooms, soccer fields, andpavilions. The City is also planning to lookat acquiring additional grant money andother sources of revenue for further ameni-ties to be completed in subsequent phases.The park is slated to open to the public atthe end of the year.

South Florida is known for sunny daysand its warm weather. Residents rely ontheir utilities to help keep them cool, espe-cially during the hot summer months. Thismonth when you receive your utility billyou are going to find a nice surprise. A 5%reduction in your June bill, one of the high-est months of usage.

Earlier this year, City of HomesteadMayor, Vice-Mayor, and City Council setgoals to reduce costs for residents. Once thegoals were created, City officials began tolook at areas where costs could be cut tohelp out residents. The Mayor and CityCouncil requested Homestead EnergyServices (HES) to give customers a breakwith their electricity bill.

Customers began to see savings in Janu-ary. The Power Cost Adjustment (PCA)

was reduced from $48.95/1000 kwh to$45.70, a reduction of $3.25 or 6.6%. ThePower Cost Adjustment allows the ElectricUtility Company to recover costs caused bythe fluctuations in fuel and purchasedpower costs that are above the base ratescharged to consumers. The PCA was low-ered again to $43.42/1000 kwh, a reductionof $2.28 or 5.0%, which will be reflected inyour current electric bill.

The total reduction for customers fromJanuary 2010 until now is $5.53 or 11.3%in comparison to 2009. HES is now the 6thlowest cost provider of the 33 municipalelectric utilities in the State of Florida.

Mayor Bateman stated, “It was an impor-tant initiative of Council to reduce powerbills within our first year in office. Wewanted to make this a priority and giveback to the community.”

The City of Homestead and the Home-

stead-Miami Speedway’s Race to the 4th

celebration was a great success. For the first

time, this annual event was held at the race

track. Vice Mayor Judy Waldman, the co-

ordinator of the celebration approached the

Speedway’s President Matt Becherer to see

if they would be interested in co-hosting the

event.

“When the City of Homestead ap-

proached us to inquire about hosting its an-

nual event fireworks display at the

Homestead-Miami Speedway, we were ec-

static,” said track president Matt Becherer.

Staff from both the City’s Parks and

Recreation Department and the Speedway

worked collectively in putting together the

event. The event was held in the race track’s

infield and grandstand seating was opened

for guests to enjoy the fireworks. The

crowds had unprecedented access to the

track, garages, and pit areas. People had an

opportunity to get up “close and personal”

and see where some of the biggest names in

racing battle it out in both the IndyCar and

NASCAR Championships.

The event was free to the public and over

10,000 spectators came out to enjoy the fes-

tivities. Special trams from the Speedway

shuttled visitors to the entrance gates from

packed parking lots.

The event was also sponsored by Toyota

of Homestead, Homestead Chevrolet Cadil-

lac, Mario’s Café, Verizon, Dade Medical

College, David Berrones, and Keys Gate

Golf Club. Cars from both Toyota of

Homestead and Homestead Chevrolet

Cadillac were displayed on the track. Thun-

der Country Radio entertained the audience

as the Master of Ceremonies.

The celebration included classic Inde-

pendence Day fireworks, entertainment

children’s rides, and many food vendors

Patrons were entertained by several live

bands, a teenage choral group singing patri-

otic songs, and children’s activities. Home-

stead residents Loretta Marsicano and

Britney Berrones sang the National Anthem

and God Bless America. Mega Party

Events provided children’s rides for the

event.

Mayor Steven Bateman, Vice-Mayor

Waldman, and the City Council addressed

the crowd about the meaning of Independ-

ence Day and thanked everyone for coming

out to celebrate. In his address, Mayor

Steven Bateman stated, “As a community

we must be mindful, dedicated, and ever-

vigilant of the freedoms that we enjoy and

the price that has been paid over many gen-

erations to sustain them.”

City officials acknowledged our troops

overseas who are fighting for freedom and

thanked them for their continued service

Vice-Mayor Waldman stated, “As we cele-

brate this wonderful day, our Nation’s birth-

day, let us not forget all of the men and

women who fought over the years to give

us the precious word “freedom.” The free-

dom to make our own way. The freedom to

make choices. The freedom to differ with

one another. But above all, I cannot stop

thinking about the fathers and husbands

Mothers and wives, sisters and brothers, and

sons and daughters that our fighting, with

every breath in their bodies, to protect that

freedom. Risking their lives, because they

want us, you and me, to be free.”

By all measures the event was a resound-

ing success.

City of Homestead Mayor Steven C.Bateman, Councilman Stephen Shelley, andHomestead Police Chief Al Rolle wanted torecognize and commend the exemplarywork that the members of the New HopeCounseling Outpatient Residential Preven-tion Services (C.O.R.P.S.) do day in and dayout. This extraordinary community organi-zation, the only one of its kind in the SouthMiami-Dade area, provides residential andoutpatient substance abuse treatment to pri-marily homeless males. New HopeC.O.R.P.S houses fifty-two beds and treat-ments can last from 60 days to 9 months.

Tuesday, July, 6, 2010 was proclaimedby the Mayor and City Council as NewHope C.O.R.P.S Day. Mayor Batemanstated, “We wanted to acknowledge onemore great organization within our Citythat brings so much good and hope to peo-ple. We are here to support an agency thathelps so many going through a difficulttime and gives them a much needed secondchance. I commend their caring staff fortheir untiring dedication to our commu-nity.”

New Hope was established in 1993 byFounder Manuel A. Alvarez after he recog-nized a gap in services and the need fortreatment opportunities for men in theSouth Dade community. The mission ofthis community agency is to break the self-destructive cycle of addiction through a re-ligious, therapeutic, and rehabilitativeapproach. This agency is dedicated to help-ing participants re-enter society as produc-

tive citizens.This organization is able to operate

through grant money from the Miami-DadeHomeless Trust which awarded New HopeC.O.R.P.S. $425,391 to implement ProjectRegeneration, a transition housing programfor substance abuse and mental health treat-ment for the chronic homeless populationwithin our community. The total cost ofthis project is $538,278 and in order forNew Hope to execute the grant, the agencywas required to raise $150,887 in matchingfunds. At the proclamation presentation, thePatrick P. Lee Foundation presented NewHope C.O.R.P.S. with a check for$150,887, the amount that was needed. Thisis the second donation awarded by thePatrick P. Lee Foundation to support thisinitiative of continuing to offer profes-sional, caring, and individualized servicesto those who have a history of mental ill-ness and substance abuse.

The Patrick P. Lee Foundation’s primarymission is to assist medical and educationalprojects and support to non-profit organi-zations that empowers families and com-munities with the resources needed tocreate positive change.

“Giving back to the community that sur-rounds you is what counts,” said Patrick P.Lee, founder of the Patrick P. Lee Founda-tion. Cynthia R. Lee, Member of the Boardof Directors for the Patrick P. Lee Founda-tion, added , “ New Hope C.O.R.P.S. is aninstitution that exemplifies what the PatrickP. Lee Foundation is all about. We arepleased to support it and the importantwork they are doing.
