Proposal

This is a modification/revocation hearing for an existing Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for an entertainment establishment at 743 Washington Avenue, operating as Vendome. The establishment has received multiple violations between July and December 2025 for failing to provide required advance written notification to the Miami Beach Police Department prior to promoted events. Staff recommends continuing the hearing to September 8, 2026 to monitor ongoing operations rather than taking immediate revocation action.
