| Miami-Dade elected leaders will gather Saturday for an unusual summit at which they will publicly acknowledge they can't come close to delivering all the promises of the half-cent sales tax approved in 2002.
The leaders and top county managers will try to navigate a delicate balance: explaining where the money went, letting the public vent for hours and then trying to lower expectations for future expansion.
''We know they're going to rip us,'' said County Commissioner Dennis Moss. ``People are angry.''
