HISPANIC AFFAIRS COMMITTEE

August 22, 2017
Mr. Jimmy Morales
City Manager
City of Miami Beach
1700 Convention Center Drive
Miami Beach, Florida 33139
Dear Mr. Morales:
Pursuant to Section 2-190.22, of the Code of the City of Miami Beach, the purpose of the Hispanic Affairs
Committee is to serve as a vehicle for responsible persons to utilize and consult with, in attempting to
understand and resolve the concerns of the Hispanic community of the city, and to make recommendations
to the city commission and city administration regarding such matters. Further, the Code in part empowers
the Committee with the responsibility to formulate and recommend plans and programs for coordination of
the activities of governmental and nongovernmental entities pertaining to the Hispanic community of the city.
On July 28th, 2017 the Finance and Citywide Projects Committee (Finance Committee) discussed a funding
recommendation from the Hispanic Affairs Committee for activities occurring during Hispanic Heritage
Month. At the time, the Finance Committee approved a funding recommendation in the amount of
$1,500.00.
It is during these trying times when cultural division and racism has been emboldened in society that Miami
Beach must continue to shine as a welcoming city that proudly embraces and celebrates its diversity.
Because of this, the Hispanic Affairs Committee is thankful to the Finance Committee for the funding
recommendation sponsored by Commissioner Kristen Rosen Gonzalez and Commissioner Micky Steinberg
and moved by Commissioner Joy Malakoff. With anticipation that the funding recommendation be ratified by
the City Commission at its meeting of September 13th, 2017, the Hispanic Affairs Committee thanks you in
advance for the effort undertaken to recognize and celebrate the rich culture of the Hispanic community that
constitutes the majority of the Miami Beach population.
During a separate discussion held at the Finance Committee meeting, it was indicated that funding
recommendations for programming coordinated by the City's advisory boards and committees should be
presented through the yearly budget process. To date, the Hispanic Affairs Committee has not been
contacted regarding our recommendation for budgetary action for the upcoming fiscal year. Therefore, in
keeping with the request of the Finance Committee and in advance of the September 15th, 2017
presentation of the proposed budget for Fiscal Year 2017 — 2018, the Hispanic Affairs Committee
We are committed to providing excellent public service and safely to all who live, work and play in our vibrant, tropical, historic community.

unanimously adopted a motion on August 21st, 2017 submitting to the City Commission and Administration
the following recommendation for funding.
Funding Recommendation — Fiscal Year 2017-2018
Activity Programmed Funding Requested Enhancement Total Funding
Hispanic Heritage Month $17,000.00' $6,500.00 $23,500.00
Jose Marti Celebration $5,000.00 $5,000.00
Mid-year outreach $5,000.00 $5,000.00
Total , $33,500.00
*Funding traditionally budgeted through the City of Miami Beach Parks Department.
The recommended funding for the Hispanic Heritage Month Festivities is inclusive of the funding historically
allocated within the Parks Department for expenses related to the Hispanic Heritage Festival. The
recommendation from the Hispanic Affairs Committee also takes into consideration funding necessary for
other activities being programmed to occur throughout Hispanic Heritage Month including a Domino
Contest, Movie in the Park, Awards Presentation Reception, and a concert at the North Beach Bandshell.
These events are designed to ensure that Hispanic Heritage Month is truly a month-long celebration of the
great contributions to Miami Beach with activities of wide appeal.
Earlier this year, the Hispanic Affairs Committee reinstated the City's Jose Marti Celebration. With the
support of funding approved midyear by the City Commission, a successful celebration was held on January
27th, 2017. Given the success of the Jose Marti Celebration, the Hispanic Affairs Committee strongly
encourages the City to continue this important program and also provide funding for an annual outreach
activity to take place in the spring or summer months.
This letter is respectfully presented to the City Commission and Administration with the hopes that funding
maybe properly allocated for the recommended programing by Hispanic Affair Committee as part of the
budget process for Fiscal Year 2017 — 2018. The Hispanic Affairs Committee has great respect for the
duties entrusted upon us to represent the Miami Beach Hispanic community constituting 53% of the total
population. We trust that the City Commission and Administration will collaborate to ensure that the
recommended funding is properly allocated.
While we live in a progressive and welcoming oasis, in recent times we have witnessed a bigoted and
prejudiced rhetoric resurface in society. These insensitivities, the violence, and the threats are all too
familiar to our hardworking, law-abiding, and taxpaying Hispanic population who have made Miami Beach
their home but who just decades ago were marginalized and even discriminated. Today more than ever, we
count on your leadership to uphold and enhance the City's efforts to conspicuously celebrate the positive
contributions of our Hispanic culture and safeguard its embrace as part of the fabric of this community.
Sincerely,
Alex J. Fernandez, Chairman
Miami Beach Hispanic Affairs Committee

AS SOCI ATE D WI T H OTHE R P UBLI C RE N TA L US ES
HI STORY:
A C ity of M iami B each P ermit is required for special events, defined as a temporary uses on public or private
property that would not be permitted generally or without restriction throughout a particular zoning district, but
would be permitted if controlled with special review. Applications are processed on a “first come, first serve”
basis unless otherwise provided for under the booking policy. Applicants must generally provide 60 days notice
for public use and 30 days notice for private use. T he special event process is a review and approval process in
which all aspects of an event are coordinated through internal, neighborhood and permitting reviews.
I n 1988, the C ity C ommission approved a set of requirements for any applicant who wishes to hold a special
event in the C ity of M iami B each. T he S pecial E vents R equirements and G uidelines (“S pecial E vent
G uidelines”) were designed to help guide applicants through the process of applying for a S pecial Events P ermit,
while ensuring minimal disruption to the impacted, surrounding environment. In 1995, via R esolution N o. 95-
21684, several revisions to the guidelines were adopted, but the procedures set forth did not adequately address a
variety of issues associated with the production of special events. I n 1998, via R esolution N o. 98-23003, the
guidelines were amended to incorporate direction received from neighborhood associations, property owners and
citizen groups. S ubsequently, in 2001, O rdinance N o. 2001-3302 and the corresponding R esolution N o. 2001-
24341 were adopted by the C ity C ommission, which codified the S pecial E vent permit process and adopted
separate guidelines with procedures, requirements and criteria for the issuance of permits for special events in
M iami B each. I n J uly 2005, additional amendments were made to the C ity C ode and to the S pecial E vents
G uidelines relating to the definition of a special event, consecutive day clause, permit application deadlines,
neighborhood review and fines associated with the special event permit. I n 2008, via R esolution 2008-26908,
additional amendments to the S pecial E vent Guidelines were made pursuant to direction from the F inance and
C itywide P rojects C ommittee, in regards to trying to generate additional revenue for the City, via the addition of
Temporary S ampling P ermits. I n 2012, via R esolution 2012-3783, the E nforcement provisions of S pecial E vent
permitting were strengthened and a detailed fine structure implemented; and via R esolution 2012-28042,
numerous S pecial E vent guideline revisions were approved, to clarify the process and restrict public uses during
high impact periods.

As the C ity anticipates the finalization of the renovated Miami B each C onvention C enter and, with it, the new
Veterans P ark space and the revised rental fee negotiated for D esign M iami to use this space for their annual
event, the Administration recognized an opportunity to evaluate and update components of the special event
process for all special event use of public spaces. I n this evaluation, it was determined that the general rental
structure of special event permits, currently defined primarily by a single square footage fee of $.25 per square
foot for the entire event duration – regardless of the duration of the event -- was not up-to-date with the C ity’s
consumer price index and relevant value increases made across the board in other uses and rentals of public
space, such as parking meter and right of way permit uses. Additionally, the current rate is not on par with
relevant rates for similar public facilities throughout the community, including Bayfront P ark which is used for
large scale events and festivals. I n addition, placing restrictions on the duration of event length helps achieve a
key outcome of reducing the privatization of public beach and park spaces, making them more available for
public use.
To that end, the Administration is recommending changing the rental/ square footage fee to a $.05 per square foot
per day fee (plus applicable sales tax) to adjust revenue to meet the consumer price index and the increased
values of public space rentals throughout the C ity, as well as a means to incentivize the reduction of privatized
event use time on public property. T his will also serve as a benefit to shorter and smaller event uses in the C ity,
reducing their overall costs.
F or existing annual events whose costs would increase, the Administration is recommending a three-year phase
in for any increased rental fee for existing annual events, with a proposed 25% increase in year 1, 50% increase in
year 2, and 100% increase in year 3, following adoption of such changes.
Attachment 1 provides a summary of the impact on a sample of existing events.
I n addition, the following recommendations are proposed:
1. R estricting the maximum number of total annual allowed event days specific to each space, inclusive of
load in, event days and load out, per designated area for public events T his would require designating specific
areas customary for public special event permits that the C ity can effectively manage through the special
event process. S uggested designated areas for public special events are:
a. L ummus P ark (5th to 15th S treet)
b. B eachfront from 5th to 15th Street
c. B eachfront from Lincoln R oad to 21s S treet
d. C ollins P ark
e. C ollins P ark B eachfront (22nd to 23rd S treet)
f. M idbeach B eachfront from 24th S treet 45th S treet
g. Indian Beach P ark (45th to 47th S treet)
h. M idbeach B eachfront to 47th to 63rd S treet
i. B andshell P ark and the 73rd Street S andbowl
j. N orthbeach B eachfront from 64th S treet to 87th Terrace
k. C onvention C enter Veteran’s P ark
l. S oundscape P ark
m. C arl F isher P ark
n. O cean D rive (5th to 15th S treet)
o. O cean Terrace (73rd to 75th Street)
p. L incoln Road (Alton R oad to Washington Avenue)
Attachment 2 provides a suggested number of maximum number of days per event area. E vent days for
multiple events occurring ii the same period would not be added together in determining the maximum number
of days.
Page 10 of 107
If the C ommittee supports the concept of a maximum number of days per event space, it is recommended
that consideration be given to grandfather in existing annual events to be able to continue to produce in their
same venues beyond any maximum annual day allotments per designated area for public events.
2. L imiting the maximum number of days per individual special event permit to 30 days, inclusive of load in,
event days, and load out, unless given a waiver by the C ommission.
3. R equiring the event to provide sufficient re-sodding, sand sifting, or street sweeping post event to
satisfactorily return the space to for public enjoyment, to potentially have this replace the current parks user fee.
4. I ncreasing the security deposit amounts based on the anticipations of re-sodding, sand sifting, or street
sweeping needs, to vary based on the event designated area.
5. F or private corporate events on public space, most of which generally fall directly behind hotel properties,
the guideline specifications and limitations on use of space should be exempted for events which are under 150
people such as small weddings, team building events, and small corporate receptions.
6. I mplementing a more effective method of communicating potential event impacts to affected residents and
businesses, following a model used by the P lanning D epartment, that assesses a fee to the special event applicant
to enable the Administration to mail all addresses within 375 feet of the proposed event no less than 30 days prior
to any review meeting that will discuss the proposed event impacts to that neighborhood
I t should be noted that special event applicants are also expected to pay fees beyond the proposed rental fee,
inclusive of permit fees, authorized vehicle access fees, building department permits, C ity staffing resources
(P olice, F ire, P arking, S anitation, etc.) and concessionaire displacement, where defined by contract.
I f implemented, the Administration believes these changes will lessen the impacts of special events that occur on
public property, allowing these areas to be more readily enjoyed by residents and visitors. I t will also serve to
better protect these public areas and ensure the event areas can be restored to their proper condition. W hile the
restructured costs may result in an increase in costs for a small number of events, the daily fee structure will
encourage larger events that wish to remain in M iami B each to compress their schedule of use of public property,
while smaller public events with lesser impacts on public spaces will see a cost savings and be further incentivized
to remain in or be encouraged to come to M iami B each, particularly in less utilized areas of the C ity.
CONCLUSI O N:
T he Administration is seeking direction regarding these recommendations.

SUB J ECT:DI S CUSSI O N RE GARDI NG A WATERLE SS CAR WAS H RFP AT G A R A GE S
HI S TO RY:
On October 18, 2017, the Mayor and C ommi ssion approved Item No. C 4E , enti tled, “Referral to the F inance and
C itywide P rojects C ommittee, to discuss Waterless C ar Wash RF P at Garages”.
Historically, the C i ty has not offered car wash services at it parking facilities. This was primarily due to environmental
issues related to chemical detergents and water reclamati on requi rements. The car wash service industry has evolved
over time and these i ssues have been addressed to a great extent.
ANALY S I S:
C ar wash servi ces are an amenity at many other parking facilities in the region. These types of services are
convenient, customer friendly, and an added revenue stream to the C ity beyond parking revenues.
S ubject to C ity C ommission approval, car wash services could be consi dered an “A ccessory” to the main use of a
garage requiring its operations to take place completely within the confines of the garage.
P lease note the C ity Hall Garage, 17th S treet Garage, and P ennsylvania Avenue Garage are all located within the
C C C (C ivi c and C onvention C enter) D istrict. P ursuant to C ity C ode S ecti on 142-362, “Main permitted use”, car
wash services is not identified as a permi tted use and could only be approved after the Mayor and C ommission hold a
public hearing.
CO N C L U SI ON:
A waterless car wash service would be a welcomed amenity to our municipal garage customers. It is consistent wi th
the C ity's resiliency initiatives as well as a revenue enhancer for the parking system. Therefore, the A dministration
recommends the addition of this amenity. If the F C W P C endorses this initiative, the A dmi nistration further
recommends, it be procured through a formal competitive procurement process. The A dministration is seeking
direction on this matter.

HI S TO RY:
On October 18, 2017, the Mayor and C ommi ssi on approved Item No. C 4G, entitled, “Referral to the F inance and
C itywide P rojects C ommittee, to consider an analysi s of current valet services and operators and explore additional
options for improved services.”
ANALY S I S:
There are a variety of options on the menu of parki ng services with valet being the highest level of service which calls
for a premium pri ce point.
Valet parking service is a longstandi ng and valuable amenity available to the business community and particularly the
hospitality industry. In fact, valet service was a valuable tool in the resurgence of S outh B each in the 1990s.
However, over time, the valet parking paradigm has evolved. The proliferation of enhanced technologies in the
transportation and parking arenas; generational changes in mobility behavior; and the development of many properties
that formerly served as vehicle storage locations have all contributed to more normali zed use of valet parking service.
B est Practices
The C ity of Miami B each was the first jurisdiction in S outh F lorida to codify regulations of right-of-way uses for valet
parking operations. These regulations addressed a variety of issues, including traffi c congestion, illegal use of publi c
parking spaces, and established a code of conduct. Over the last two decades, these regulations have been amended
with the most recent amendment taking place in October 2015.
F urther research of valet parking business models and regulations in other jurisdictions, i ncluding the C ity of Miami and
C ity of C oral Gables, revealed the following:
C ity of Miami regulations and enforcement fine schedules are consistent with Miami B each’s regulations (and
enforcement fi ne schedule) that were in place pri or to 2015.
C ity of C oral Gables regulations are consistent with Mi ami B each’s regulations that were in place prior to 2015,
with a fine schedule commencing at $100 and permi t suspensions or terminations for subsequent violations
within a 12 month period.
Page 15 of 107
The amendments to the C ity C ode that were approved by the C ity C ommission in 2015 have signi fi cantly improved
valet parking operations. The following is a summary of the amendments to the C i ty C ode and their related benefits:
E nhanced cri teri a for permit approval by requiri ng a valet parking operational plan.
Traffic Operations Analysis approved by a P.E. (professional engineer).
Set maximum distance between ramp and vehicle storage location to decrease travel time which is a contributor to traffic
congestion.
Approval of staffing levels/schedule of valet parking service operational hours for the establishment, including valet runners;
supervisors, and managers.
May require an off-duty police officer, as determined by the Chief of Police, for traffic control and/or mitigate traffic congestion.
Determine whether the proposed valet parking service will have a beneficial effect on vehicular and pedestrian safety.
Standardized valet parking street furniture; including signs, stands, and key boxes; establishes consistency in aesthetics.
S torage of vehicles on private parking facilities which are properly permitted and have sufficient vehicle storage
capacity, as determined by the P lanning D irector.
S trengtheni ng of regulations.
In no instance shall there be more than one (1) valet ramp per block side and no more than four (4) parking
spaces per block side is permitted.
Ramping shall only take place in the space(s) provided for ramping.
D ouble parki ng or obstruction of a traffic lane is strictly prohibited.
A ll desi gn standards for all street furniture includi ng signs, stands, and key boxes shall be determi ned by the
P lanning D i rector. A t a minimum, the following shall be applicable:
B e constructed of durable material that will withstand the year-round impact of the weather and must be
maintained in good taste and in good condi ti on at all times.
B e sufficiently weighted and constructed to wi thstand strong winds. Not exceed twenty four (24) i nches in width
and forty ei ght (48) inches in height (includi ng base, holder, frames, etc.) measured from the sidewalk surface.
B e freestanding and may not be affixed to any street fi xtures including, but not limited to trees, meters,
lampposts, grates, bike racks, decorative benches, news boxes, etc. in any manner. S igns shall not be electri fi ed
in any way, be lighted in any way, or have any moving components.
D isplay the following information: name of valet parking operator, address and 24 hour contact number; valet
parking fee schedule; and hours of operation.
Business Models
A review of other business models included the sole-operator approach in the C ity of Miami’s D esign D istri ct.
This business model i s privately owned and operated. Transi ti oning this business model to the public sector has
the followi ng challenges.
Vehicle storage is a critical resource. Many, if not most, vehi cle storage locations in the city have leaseholds that
would likely require some level of buyout. Most of the current valet operators are small local operators. It i s
unlikely exi sti ng operators would have the financi al wherewithal to acquire these leaseholds.
National parking operators are more likely to have the fi nancial wherewithal to do so. These local operators
would be hard pressed to compete with national operators likely resulting in their phase out over time.
In addition, national operators may increase valet parking user fees as they would likely encounter some
increased costs for those leasehold buyouts for vehicle storage. W hile the price point for valet service should
have a premium, i ncreased fixed costs as well as the aforementioned factors adversely influencing demand may
not result i n a vi able business model.
Page 16 of 107
A lso, please note that on October 31, 2017, the Mayor and C ity C ommission approved an ordinance, on second
reading/public hearing, amending the fine schedule for valet parki ng violations. The amendment reduced the fine for
the first violati on from $1,000 to $500 and second violation from $2,000 to $1,000. This was done with the intent to
provide valet operators with a reduced fine schedule at the onset allowing for behavior modification. However, the
remainder of the fine schedule remained intact to address habitual offenders and related abuses.
CO N C L U SI ON:
The exi sting business model in place coupled wi th the 2015 amendments to the C ity C ode has resulted in a 54%
increase in valet operator compli ance when comparing violations issued in F Y14/15 versus F Y16/17. Therefore, the
A dministration recommends maintaining the existi ng business model as well as current regulations in the C ity C ode for
valet parking on the ci ty's right-of-way.

ANALY S I S:
O n August 31, 2017, representatives from E H D O C met with the Administration to discuss a request for an
extension of the L eases, for a period of fifty (50) years, in order to facilitate the refinancing of both properties.
E H D O C submitted a formal request for an extension of the air rights leases, with supporting documentation,
dated August 16, 2017, attached hereto as E xhibit A (R equest for E xtension of Air R ights L eases).
As stated in the request letter, E H D O C intends to use the proceeds of the refinancing for capital renovations to
the properties. T he renovations would include, but not be limited to, site work, exterior façade work, new
windows, interior common areas and office renovations, apartment renovations, and building systems (e.g.,
elevators, roof, electric, plumbing, water pumps, generators, fire alarm systems, etc.).
U pon initial review, the Administration recommends the following modifications in conjunction with consideration
for a lease extension:
1. include enhancements to generator capacity to ensure continued operation of H VAC , elevators, life safety
systems, etc. after a storm;
2. establish criteria for condition of building/units at the end of the extended term;
3. comply with M iami D ade C ounty 40 year recertification requirements, and subsequent 10 year recertification

b) are homebound residents and unable to walk to a bus pickup point and do not have anyone that can provide transportation
c) have medical needs that prevent them from evacuating on their own
d) are bedbound patients
e) are on life-sustaining medical equipment that requires electricity
f) require assistance with daily living activities
5. comply with required M iami B each registration of other residents who need some type of daily assistance to
live on their own, including completion of annual assessment form.
T he L ease extension will reaffirm, and will have no effect on, the municipal parking spaces located at both sites.

The Emergency and Evacuation Assistance Program (EEAP) is designed for individuals living at home that need
assistance with evacuation and sheltering. Additionally, the program may also be utilized post disaster to provide
other assistance such as wellness checks. Residents of assisted living facilities (ALF) or nursing homes do not qualify
for this program, because these business entities must have their own emergency plans for their clients.
Please note that all Miami-Dade County residents are expected to make their own plans to evacuate their families
and pets. It is important that everyone be responsible for their own safety and make a plan that includes where to go,
who to contact, what to bring, and how to get there. However, the County realizes that some individuals may need
assistance. Individuals meeting one of the following categories are eligible for assistance from the County:
• Those who require specialized transportation and/or have no transportation.
• Those whose medical needs prevent them from evacuating on their own.
Please note that upon processing your application, a representative from the Miami-Dade County Office of Emergency
Management (OEM) will contact you if further clarification is necessary.
What You Should Know To Be Evacuation Ready:
• The EEAP registry is used for any emergency requiring evacuation.
• Do not wait until an evacuation order is given to request being added to the Registry.
• Resources are limited and pre-registered clients will have priority when an emergency arises.
• Evacuation centers do not offer the same level of care equipment available as health care facilities.
• Only basic medical care and assistance are available.
• Special needs enhanced beds and cots are provided on a limited basis.
• Individuals requiring a higher level of medical care will be placed in participating local hospitals.
• Due to a limited number of staff, we recommend that a caregiver accompany you and remain with you during
your stay at the evacuation center to ensure your needs are met in a timely manners.
• If you have a special diet, bring those dietary items with you so as you to ensure the highest level of comfort.
• Remember to bring a disaster kit that includes: bedding, medications, and personal supplies (food, water, and
medical equipment).
• Ensure that you eat a meal prior to leaving your home.
• All Miami-Dade County evacuation centers accept individuals with service animals.
— If you have a service animal, please include their food and supplies in your disaster kit.
All sections of this application must be completed. If you require a higher level of medical care, your primary
care physician (PCP) should complete and sign this application prior to submitting it to our office. If more than
one person in your household requires medical assistance during evacuations, each person must complete a separate
application. Special instructions will be mailed to you once your application has been processed.
You will be contacted on an semi-annual basis to re-certify your need for this program. You do not need to complete
an application every year. Should you have any questions, please call the EEAP Support Line at (305) 513-7700. Please

2017 HURRICANE SEASON – EMERGENCY EVACUATION PICK-UP SITES
Miami-Dade County encourages individuals living in storm surge planning zones and
mobile homes to have arrangements in place to stay outside of the areas called for
evacuations during a tropical storm or hurricane. These arrangements should be in place
prior to the start of hurricane season (June1st).
For those unable to make such arrangements, the American Red Cross opens
Evacuation Centers as shelters of last resort. Individuals that are unable to provide their
own transportation to an Evacuation Center can use public evacuation transportation.
Miami-Dade Transit will activate specific Emergency Evacuation Bus Pick-Up Sites by
zone (pages 2-4) as directed by the Miami-Dade County Office of Emergency
Management. In addition to the zones, mobile home parks are vulnerable to high winds
and have designated Evacuation Bus Pick-Up Sites (pages 5-6). If a designated
Emergency Evacuation Bus Pick-Up site is not located near you, regular Miami-Dade
Transit bus service will continue and residents can utilize regular routes to get to an
evacuation bus pick-up site. Evacuees should advise the bus operator of their intention
to go to an emergency evacuation pick-up site. Residents can use the trip planner at:
http://www.miamidade.gov/transit/metrobus.asp.
Emergency Evacuation Bus Pick-Up Sites are identified by a
sign that reads “EMERGENCY EVACUATION BUS PICK-UP
SITE.” The buses placed into service for the evacuation will
have displays that read “EMERGENCY EVACUATION” and
these buses will only travel between Emergency Evacuation
Bus Pick-Up Sites and Evacuation Centers. Please note that
the evacuation areas will be determined individually for each
storm.
To learn which Emergency Evacuation Bus Pick-Up Sites are
active during a particular storm you should listen to the local media, monitor the County’s
website at http://miamidade.gov/, or contact Miami-Dade 311 Contact Center.

Please add to the October 18th agenda, a referral to Finance and Citywide Projects Committee and
the Neighborhood/Community Affairs Committee of a discussion on whether the City should tax
sugary drinks.
As mentioned in the New York Times article, "How to Win Against Bid Soda," consuming one to two
sugary drinks a day increases a person's risk of developing diabetes by 26 percent. By taxing sugary
drinks, it is anticipated that the purchase of healthier drinks will go up and the sales of soda will go
down. T he tax raised could be utilized to fund nutrition and health programs in the City.

DATE:October 18, 2017
SUBJECT:REFERRAL TO THE FINANCE AND CITYWIDE PROJECTS
COMMITTEE REGARDING "CROWD FUNDING" FOR A LOG CABIN SALVAGE-
REPLACEMENT/RENOVATION PROJECT.
RECOMMENDATION
The Administration is Recommending Referral of this item to the Finance and Citywide Projects
Committee.
ANALYSIS
On July 26, 2017, City Commission accepted the Finance and Citywide Projects Committee’s
(FCWPC) recommendation regarding the Log Cabin structure located at 8128 Collins Avenue.
These recommendations were:
Staff will collaborate with Daniel Ciraldo of the Miami-Dade Preservation League to further
investigate the Log Cabin's historical significance within the context of the community.
Administration will work with the City's Grants Department to identify potential funding
opportunities available for restoration including the State Department's Division of Historical
Resources (DHR), namely the DHR's Special Category Grants.
Property Management Division to revisit feasibility of successfully relocating the Log Cabin and
further explore the option to build an in-kind structure while salvaging key elements of the Log
Cabin that remain in fair condition today (i.e. treated interior logs and coral rock fireplace).
The result of the Miami-Dade Preservation League research of the Log Cabin's historical
significance within the context of the community was presented to the FCWPC on September
20,2017 and will be included as part of the Commission discussion item on October 18, 2017.
Results of the feasibility study relocating the Log Cabin and the option to build an in-kind structure
while salvaging key elements of the Log Cabin that remain in fair condition today were presented to
FCWPC at that same meeting. The study by Douglas Wood Associates (DWA) determined that
relocation of the existing structure is not feasible because of the poor condition, and estimated that
approximately fifty percent (50%) of the existing structure could be salvaged and a replacement
structure constructed for between $750,000 and $1 million.
DWA’s assessment “indicates that ‘restoration’ of this building is not feasible. The closest one
could come to ‘restoration’ would be to reconstruct foundations and stemwalls with new
materials (unless historical designation is achieved and flood design requirements waived)...,
reconstruct the exterior log walls with new materials, and reconstruct the floor and roof using
existing materials, supplemented with new materials as required.”
Page 157 of 2621 Page 96 of 107
FCWPC requested that staff further evaluate the cost of salvaging and storing appropriate parts of
the structure as well as obtaining specifications and costs for building a similar log cabin using a log
cabin kit approach and the salvaged materials and to bring these estimates to the October 13, 2017
FCWPC meeting. The administration has obtained the cost estimate for salvaging and storing
appropriate parts of the structure of approximately $275,000 and is still working with DWA to develop
specifications and costs estimates for the reconstruction using a log cabin kit approach.
Identification of Potential Funding Opportunities Available for Restoration
The Administration has identified potential funding opportunities for the Log Cabin project. Potential
State funding sources include the Historic Preservation Special Category grants program, Small
Matching grant program, Florida Recreation Development Assistance Program, Land and Water
Conservation Fund and the Cultural Facilities grant program. Other potential grants include Miami-
Dade County Capital Development Grants program, the National Trust for Historic Preservation and
Save America’s Treasures.
Given the high cost, and the fact that most grants will require matching funds, the
Administration continues to explore other funding options.
Crowdfunding
The concepts of crowdfunding have been around for some time to fund myriads of personal and non-
profit type endeavors. However, as outlined in the attached CityLab article, this approach is
beginning to be embraced by local governments, particularly for projects that are communities see as
important for their neighborhoods.
Given the expressions of local concerns for the Log Cabin previously expressed by the community,
this may be an option to provide some portion of the funding For a Log Cabin Salvage-
Replacement/Renovation Project.
KEY INTENDED OUTCOMES SUPPORTED
Enhance Beauty And Vibrancy Of Urban And Residential Neighborhoods; Focusing On Cleanliness, Historic
Assets, In Select Neighborhoods And Redevelopment Areas
