INTRODUCTION I BACKGROUND On September 6, 2006, the Mayor and City Commission adopted Resolution No. 2006 - 26281, awarding, pursuant to RFP 30- 05106, the operation and management of the Green Markets on Lincoln Road, Espanola Way and Normandy Isle to the Market Company and the operation and management for the Antique and Collectibles Market on Lincoln Road to Production Sud, Inc. (collectively "Street Markets "). The permitted uses for each Street Market are as follows: Lincoln Road Green Market includes fruits, vegetables, juices, nuts and other related.products; plants and cut flowers; Espanola Way Street Market included arts and crafts; cut flowers and plants; fruits, juices, nuts, and other related products; Normandy Village Street Market includes arts and crafts; fruits, vegetables, cut flowers, orchids and other related green market products; tropical fruit preserves, dressings, dried fruits and nuts, honey and organic produce; :. Antiques and Collectibles Market includes antiques; vintage goods; and collectibles. The City entered into four separate Management and Operating Agreements governing each of the Street Markets, each commencing on October 1, 2006 and terminating on September 9, 2009, (collectively, "Management Agreements "). The Management Agreements provided for an extension of the respective terms for an additional three (3) years, which was approved by the City on July 1St, 2009. It should be noted that shortly after the renewal options were approved, the Espanola Way Street Market was due to lack of interest by the vendors. The renewal terms were due to expire on September 30, 2012; therefore, staff referred the discussion, regarding the issuance of a new Request for Proposals ( "RFP ") for the management and operation of the Street Markets, to the. Finance and Citywide Projects Committee ( "FCWPC ")..On May 17, 2012, the FCWPC recommended issuing the. RFP with a broader scope, including locations other than where the markets are today. In addition, the FCWPC recommended that the current agreement(s) be allowed to continue on a month -to -month basis, until the process was completed. In addition, staff was'directed to review and research the per day charge for electrical service. On September 12, 2012, pursuant to the 'recommendation of the FCWPC, the City Commission adopted Resolution No. 2012- 27997, extending the Management Agreements in effect, on a month -to -month basis, for a period ending May 31, 2013. The Resolution further authorized the Administration to begin working on a new RFP process to solicit interest in managing and operating street markets on Miami . Beach in'one or more of the four locations identified above, as well as to explore expanding the scope to include other areas of the City, provided the identified locations have the support of the respective neighborhood and/or neighborhood association, do not interfere with traffic circulation and parking and don't pose any life= safety and /other code - related problems. Staff required additional time to complete the RFP process and on May 8, 2013, the City Commission adopted Resolution No. 2013 - 28212, extending the Management Agreements in effect, from June 1, 201 until such time as a new contract for the Street Market(s) was executed. In connection with the preparation of the RFP, Staff held an industry- review meeting on June 17, 2013. Operators and vendors.of Street Markets from the tri- county area were notified of the meeting and several attended. Many of their suggestions were incorporated in the scope for the RFP being presented to the City Commission herein, including providing the option of a weekday Street Market, more flexible hours of operation and a preference for locally grown produce in support of the farm to table concept.

SECTION II — MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS REQUIREMENTS N/A SECTION III — SCOPE OF SERVICES Since October 1, 2006, The Market Company has been operating its Green (Farmers) Markets on Lincoln Road, Normandy Isle and until August, 2009, on Espanola Way. As noted above, The Market Company's markets are generally engaged in the sale of cut flowers and plants, fruits, vegetables and other edible products, including fresh fruits, dried fruits, vegetables, nuts, preserves, pickled items, jams, jellies, juices, smoothies and other non - alcoholic beverages. The "Green Market" concept was specifically adopted for Lincoln Road so as nofto compete with merchants in the area. During the same period, Production Sud, Inc. has operated its Antiques and Collectibles Market on Lincoln Road, engaging in the sale of antiques, vintage goods and collectibles, including but not limited to, jewelry, bric -a -brac, reproductions, memorabilia, art, and creative uses of recycled components. For allowing the Markets to operate in their respective locations, the City receives rent equivalent to the greater of a fixed percentage of concessionaire's gross receipts (PG) or an established minimum guarantee (MG) as follows: - Rent Received Market: PG% MG FY 08109 FY 09110 FY 10/11 Lincoln Road Green Mkt , 15.0% $ 8,820 $ 9,530 $10,338 $13,111 Normandy Isle Mkt 15.0% $ 3,675 $ 4,213 $ 4,262 $ 4,258 Antiques & Collectibles Mkt 12.5% $29,400 $35,128 $29,450 $34,608 In order to cover the costs associated with facilitating Street Markets for the general public, the City will need to charge Concessionaires the following additional fees: $40.00 per day to contribute toward the costs associated with field monitoring the event, on an as needed basis; $100.00 per quarter to contribute toward the cost of pressure cleaning the sites of the Street Markets; and $5.00 per market day for each vendor requiring electrical service. A summary,of the current terms for each of the Markets is included as "Appendix F ". Lincoln Road Green Market The Lincoln Road Green Market is currently held every Sunday on the Lincoln Road Mall from Washington Avenue to Meridian Avenue with an average of 20 vendors; operating between the hours of 9:00 a.m. until 6:30 p.m. As noted in the table above, the Lincoln Road Green Market has consistently exceeded its annual MG remittal to the City and continues to be a viable event for both the Concessionaire and the City. It should be noted however, that due to the significant increase in the number of - sidewalk cafe permits issued on Lincoln Road since the inception of the Markets, there has been, on occasion, friction between the restaurants and the Markets over the displacement of some of their vendors. T1 RFP 317 -2013, Street Markets Jt!BEACH ti Normandy Village (Isle) Market The Normandy Market operates every Saturday on Rue Vendome with an average of 13 vendors. The street is closed to traffic during the Market's operation. The Market Company continues to manage and "operate this market as it has over the past few years with little change in vendors or emphasis. Although not a high profit return to the City, this market is primarily frequented by the surrounding community. Antiques & Collectibles Market The Antiques & Collectibles Market, operated by Production Sud, Inc., is held on Sunday with operating hours of 9:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m, twice a month from October through May. The Market currently operates on Lincoln Road between Meridian Avenue and Michigan Avenue; Michigan Avenue between.South Lincoln Lane and North Lincoln Lane; and the west side of Jefferson Avenue, between South Lincoln Lane and North Lincoln Lane, withr an average of 128 vendors It should be noted that due to the renovations and modifications to,the 1100 block of Lincoln Road that were completed in November, 2009, -the Antiques and Collectibles Market was not permitted to return to the block, resulting in the loss of approximately 30 vendor locations. To .compensate for the reduction in space, the Antiques & Collectibles Market was allowed to expand from two rows to three rows of tents on Michigan Avenue. Even so, the Market was reduced from approximately 130 spaces to 110 spaces, resulting in a loss of revenues and requiring staff to explore various options to add the spaces back without conflicting with the Lincoln Road Green Market and without creating circulatory, parking and /or life- safety issues. In August, 2011, Staff was able to secure the west side of Jefferson Avenue between South Lincoln Lane and North Lincoln Lane„ which was able to accommodate an additional 18 vendors. This new location has since made up, for the concessionaire's loss of the 1100 block. Collins Park Market On October 14, 2009, pursuant to a request from the Collins Park Neighborhood Association (CPNA), the City Commission approved a temporary Management and Operating Agreement with the Market Company to operate a farmer's market adjacent to Collins Park on a trial basis for a period of one (1) year, commencing on January 1, 2010 and ending on December 31, 2010. The Market was located on 22 Street between Collins Avenue and Liberty Avenue, which was not the location of choice for the CPNA or the Concessionaire, who would have preferred a location in the Park itself. It should be noted that an exhaustive amount of time was spent at a staff and Committee level in identifying and agreeing to the approved location for the'Market. The Park and the Central Boulevard located on the east side of Collins Avenue were firmly ruled" out due to a variety of concerns involving accessibility /ADA issues, maintenance - related impacts, Historic Preservation issues, and parking and circulatory impediments. Staff also looked at Park Avenue and Liberty Avenue as potential locations, but ruled them out on account of their lack of visibility from public areas, which in effect would hide the market instead of activating the Park. The 22nd Street location was deemed the most viable on account of its high degree of visibility adjacent to the Park, the minimum impact to traffic circulation and the minimal loss of parking spaces during market days. The Collins Park Market started operations on January 3, 2010, and was scheduled to run every Sunday from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. However, the construction of Collins Park and surrounding streetscape areas (including 22nd Street), had not been completed and was running behind schedule. Also, abnormally cold and windy conditions prevailed in the area for most of the first two months of operation, discouraging both pedestrian traffic as well as vendors from attending. Furthermore, an inadequate power supply to provide electricity for some of the vendors resulted in frequent electrical outages due to overloading of the circuits. For these reasons, the Market Company elected to terminate its Agreement with the City on March 31, 2010. It should be noted however, that despite the Market Company's experience with this location, it is still determined to be the most viable and functional for the Collins Park neighborhood, particularly since it is no longer subject to the mostly construction - related interruptions it was affected by before. Furthermore, on account of the few restaurants in the area, no sidewalk cafes and no local grocery store, a new market in this location could potentially be expanded to allow for a broader spectrum of products to be sold, including, but not limited to, prepared foods, arts and crafts, and the inclusion of live entertainment. Also, while the electrical supply along this section of 22nd Street is still limited to Christmas tree lighting outlets located atop the light poles along the .north, sidewalk, staff would recommend allowing the use of quiet (whisper) generators by those vendors needing to operate electrical equipment, such as blenders and toaster ovens. The agreements governing the Green Markets currently preclude the use of generators so as to mitigate any chance of noise disturbances as well as to minimize opportunities for vendors to engage in the production and sale of certain prohibited items such as prepared foods. While this provision may still apply to future market agreements involving Lincoln Road and Normandy Isle, an exception should be considered for Collins Park. .
