Recommendation
Adopt the attached Resolution which is sponsored by Commissioner Ricky Arriola.
A. Background
Chapter 170, Florida Statutes, authorizes any municipality, subject to the approval of a majority
of the affected property owners, to levy and collect special assessments against property
benefitted for the purpose of stabilizing and improving retail business districts,wholesale business
districts, or nationally recognized historic districts, or any combination of such districts, through
promotion, management, marketing, and other similar services.
On December 17, 2014, the Mayor and City Commission adopted Resolution No. 2014-28881,
which originally contemplated establishment of a special assessment district, pursuant to Chapter
170, Florida Statutes, initially limited to a boundary encompassing solely the Ocean Drive retail
business district. Following adoption of Resolution No. 2014-28881, a steering committee of
property owners requested that the City Commission expand the proposed special assessment
district, to include the Collins Avenue corridor, bounded on the south by 5th Street, and extending
northward up to and including 21st Street.
On September 12, 2018, the Mayor and City Commission adopted Resolution No. 2018-30487
which, in pertinent part, authorized the Offices of the City Manager and City Attorney to work with
the steering committee of Ocean Drive and Collins Avenue property owners for the purpose of
establishing a special assessment district, pursuant to Chapter 170, Florida Statutes, to stabilize
and improve the Ocean Drive and Collins Avenue retail business district,which district is generally
located within a nationally recognized historic district, through promotion, management,
marketing, and other similar services.
The attached Resolution is the first step under Chapter 170, Florida Statutes, for creating the
proposed special assessment district, and is hereby submitted for consideration by the Mayor and
City Commission.
B. The Proposed "South Beach Business Improvement District"
The attached Resolution creates, subject to the approval of a majority of the affected property
owners, a special assessment district, to be known as the "South Beach Business Improvement
District" (the "District"), for a term of ten (10) years, to stabilize and improve the Ocean Drive and
Collins Avenue retail business district, that certain district within a nationally recognized historic
district and which is generally bounded on the north by 1601 Collins Avenue/1610 Collins Avenue
and on the south by 5th Street, through promotion, management, marketing, and other similar
services.
The Resolution provides for the creation of a preliminary assessment roll; provides for the levy
and collection of special assessments, in the amount of $2,093,335 per year; indicates the
location, nature, and estimated cost of those services whose cost are to be defrayed by the special
assessments; provides the manner in which such special assessments shall be made; provides
when such special assessments shall be made; designates the lands upon which the special
assessments shall be levied; provides for publication of this Resolution; and authorizes other
related actions.
The material terms for the proposed District are as follows:

2. Term/Duration of the District
The term/duration of the proposed District is ten (10) years.
3. Total Annual Amount of Special Assessments to be Levied and Collected
The total annual amount of special assessments to be levied and collected shall be $2,093,335
per year.
4. Assessment Methodologies
a. Properties within the District that front Ocean Drive shall be assessed at the rate of

1 South Beach BID Partners, Inc. (the"BID"), a Florida nonprofit corporation, represents a group of property
owners in the vicinity of, abutting, or located on Ocean Drive and Collins Avenue. As proponents of the
creation of the District, the BID has provided the City Attorney with an opinion of counsel relating to the
legal sufficiency of the proposed assessment formula (See Letter of Michael Llorente, Esq., dated
November 1, 2019, attached to this Memorandum as Exhibit "1"). The opinion of counsel concludes that
the assessment methodology proposed by the BID complies with applicable legal requirements.

the rate.
e. Properties within the proposed District that are also located within the boundaries of
the Washington Avenue Business Improvement District shall be assessed at the rate
of sixty cents ($0.60) per square foot.
5. Services to be Provided
The special assessments shall be used to fund those Services described in Exhibit "B" to the
Resolution. In addition to general and administrative costs, the BID's first year budget projection
includes expenses for the following Services: marketing (advertising and promotional branding);
programming (cultural activations and events); beautification (decor, lighting, and art); sanitation
(maintenance and cleaning to supplement City services); and security (including off-duty police,
private security, and ambassadors).
Given the different assessment methodology proposed for the two business corridors,the
Administration has requested more detailed explanation from the BID as to distribution of
the Services throughout the District. We anticipate that this information will be provided
prior to the City Commission's consideration of the final Resolution establishing the
District.
The BID intends to expend programming funds on events and activations in Lummus Park. Any
activities in Lummus Park are subject to City approval; the BID cannot conduct programming on
City property without either(i) obtaining a special event permit, or(ii) partnering with the City or a
City permitee.
The Administration has requested additional information on all proposed Services,
including activities in Lummus Park,and anticipates that this information shall be provided
prior to City Commission consideration of the aforestated final Resolution.
C. Procedure for Creating the District, Following the Adoption of the Attached Resolution
1. Notice Requirement
Upon adoption of the attached Resolution, and pursuant to Section 170.05, Florida Statutes, the
City shall cause the Resolution to be published one time in a newspaper of general circulation
published in the City.
2. Preliminary Assessment Roll
Additionally, upon adoption of the attached Resolution, and pursuant to Section 170.02, Florida
Statutes, the Administration shall cause to be made a preliminary assessment roll, in accordance
with the method of assessment provided for in the Resolution, which assessment roll shall show
the lots and lands assessed, the amount of benefit to and the assessment against each lot or
parcel of land, and the number of annual installments in which the assessment is divided. Upon
completion of the preliminary assessment roll, it shall be made available for public inspection in
the City Clerk's office. (A draft of the preliminary assessment roll is attached hereto as Exhibit

Following adoption of the attached Resolution by the Mayor and City Commission, and completion
of the preliminary assessment roll, the City Clerk, in consultation with the City Attorney's Office,
4
shall conduct a special mail ballot election for the majority(50% plus one)of the affected property
owners to approve the proposed special assessment.
4. Final Hearing for the Mayor and City Commission to Hear Testimony, Decide Whether to
Levy Special Assessments, and Meet as an Equalizing Board to Adiust and Equalize the
Assessments on a Basis of Justice and Right
Upon completion of the preliminary assessment roll, and upon the approval of the District by a
majority of the affected property owners, the Mayor and City Commission must adopt a
subsequent Resolution to schedule a public hearing at which the owners of the properties to be
assessed or any other persons interested therein may appear before the Mayor and City
Commission and be heard as to the propriety and advisability of the assessments proposed to be
levied, or the provision of the Services, the costs thereof, the manner of payment therefor, or the
amount thereof to be assessed against each lot so serviced.
Following the public hearing, the Mayor and City Commission shall make a final decision on
whether to levy the special assessments. At that time, the Mayor and City Commission shall also

Re: Business Improvement District Assessment Methodology
You have asked our firm to review the legal sufficiency of the proposed cost apportionment
methodology for the South Beach Business Improvement District("South Beach BID"or"BID"). As set
forth below, we find that the proposed cost apportionment methodology complies with the applicable
legal requirements.
I. Factual Background
For over two years, property owners and operators within the City's Mixed Use Entertainment District
("MXE District") have been exploring the possible creation of a business improvement district to
develop a cohesive identity, provide additional security and sanitation services, and market and stabilize
the area. While the MXE District is largely unified in terms of zoning, history, and architecture, the
district consists of two areas that are sometimes viewed separately: (i) the Collins Avenue corridor; and
(ii) the Ocean Drive corridor. Led by stakeholders from both the Collins Avenue corridor and the Ocean
Drive corridor, the proponents of the South Beach BID have proposed boundaries that closely track the
boundaries of the existing MXE District. A comparative analysis of the boundaries of the MXE District
and the proposed South Beach BID is attached as Exhibit A.
One of the primary objectives of the proposed South Beach BID is to create an integrated district that
combines the entertainment and nightlife offerings on Ocean Drive with the retail and hotel offerings
along Collins Avenue. It is anticipated that the creation of an integrated district — with improved
security, aesthetics, marketing, and programming — will have a meaningful positive impact on
commercial activity,property values, and the overall tax base within the BID boundaries.
The proposed South Beach BID will include approximately two hundred and twenty-one (221) folios —
eighty-seven (87) folios on Ocean Drive and one hundred thirty-three (133) folios on Collins Avenue.
Properties on Ocean Drive will be assessed at a rate of $2.00 per lot square foot and properties on
Collins Avenue will be assessed at a rate of$1.00 per lot square foot. The reason for the cost differential
is that Ocean Drive is a single-loaded street (with properties on one side of the street only), while
Collins Avenue is a double-loaded street (with properties on both sides of the street). As a result, the
cost of providing security, sanitation, and other services on Ocean Drive must be borne by property
owners on one side of the street,while those same costs on Collins Avenue may be split among property
owners on both sides of the street.
801 Arthur Godfrey Rd,Ste 401 / Miami Beach,FL 33140 / T 305.742.2810 / F 786.214.6734 / Llorentelleckler.com
The proposed budget of the BID is approximately $2,091,692 and consists of the following general
categories:
• $396,000 for marketing (branding, marketing,promotion);
• $331,000 for programming(events and activations);
• $145,000 for beautification(lighting, decor, seasonal displays);
• $304,000 for sanitation("clean team" for trash removal, spills, stickers, graffiti);
• $571,640 for security(off-duty police,privately-licensed security,BID ambassadors);
• $205,000 for administration(staffing costs, employee benefits); and
• $139,052 for general expenses(rent, insurance, equipment).
II. Legal Standard
The proposed South Beach BID will be created pursuant to Chapter 170 of the Florida Statutes, which
sets forth the legal requirements for the imposition of special assessments on private property owners.
Under Chapter 170, the City has the authority to levy and collect special assessments for the
improvement and stabilization of retail business districts through promotion, management, marketing,
and other similar services, subject to the approval of a majority of the affected property owners. See
Section 170.01(3).
Courts have set forth a two-prong test for the imposition of a valid special assessment. First,the assessed
properties must derive a special benefit from the service provided. Second, the assessment must be
fairly and reasonably apportioned among the specially benefitting properties. See City of Boca Raton v.
State, 595 So.2d 25 (Fla. 1992). The findings of special benefit and proper apportionment "are
legislative in nature and presumed correct." Donovan v. Okaloosa County, 82 So.3d 801, 811 (Fla.
2012). "The presumption of correctness can be overcome only by strong, direct, clear, and positive
proof."Id. at 812.
The test to determine whether a special benefit exists is "whether there is a `logical relationship'
between the services provided and the benefit to the real property." Lake County v. Water Oak Mgmt.
Corp., 695 So.2d 667, 669 (Fla.1997). Courts have declined to articulate a formal standard for the
reasonable apportionment requirement, declaring instead that local determinations should be upheld
unless they are arbitrary. See, e.g., City of Winter Springs v. State, 776 So. 2d 255, 259 (Fla. 2001)
("[T]hough a court may recognize valid alternative methods of apportionment, so long as the legislative
determination by the City is not arbitrary, a court should not substitute its judgment for that of the local
legislative body."). Notably, a public agency has no obligation to identify a specific dollar amount of
benefit received by each parcel assessed. City of Boca Raton, 595 So.2d at 31;see also Cape Dev. Co. v.
City of Cocoa Beach, 192 So. 2d 766 (Fla. 1966) (finding that statutory requirements were met where a
city determined that anticipated benefits exceeded the amount of the special assessments and,
consequently, city was not required to itemize the specific benefit to each parcel). Indeed, "[s]ubstantial
and not exact correspondence between assessments and benefits is required, and a wide latitude is
allowed for legislative discretion."Atl. Coast Line R. Co. v. City of Lakeland, 94 Fla. 347, 368, 115 So.
669, 678 (1927).

III. Analysis
The proposed BID will provide wide-ranging services — including marketing, programming, security,
and sanitation services — exclusively to properties within the BID boundaries. Studies have found that
properties within business improvement districts enjoy significant short- and long-term financial
benefits as a result of these types of services. For example, a group of researchers at New York
University's Furman Center for Real Estate and Urban Policy surveyed forty-four(44) BIDs in the New
York area and determined that commercial property values within BID boundaries increased
approximately fifteen (15) percentage points more rapidly than comparable properties outside the BID
boundaries.' In the instant case, the BID will offer valuable services exclusively within the BID
boundaries. These services will create a safer, cleaner, more attractive environment that will generate
more commercial activity and — according to empirical studies like the one cited above —will increase
commercial property values within the BID boundaries. Clearly, then, there is a "logical relationship"
between the anticipated services and the anticipated benefits to properties within the BID boundaries.
In determining whether the proposed special assessment is "fairly and reasonably apportioned" among
the specially benefitting properties, we must examine the formula and methodology that determines the
tax obligation accruing to each specially benefitting property. In this case, the proposed formula is based
on the square footage of each specially benefitting property. In other words, the ultimate tax bill for a
particular property will depend largely on the size of the property. This method of cost apportionment
has been expressly endorsed by the courts and described as a "traditional" methodology. See, e.g., City
of Boca Raton, 595 So.2d at 31 ("While front foot or square foot methodologies for apportioning costs
of special improvement projects are more traditional, other methods are permissible") (emphasis added).
In order to ensure equitable distribution of costs and avoid placing an undue burden on the
extraordinarily large properties, the proposed apportionment methodology provides a scaled assessment
reduction for properties greater than fifty thousand square feet (50,000 sf). Residential properties have
been excluded from the proposed assessment rolls.2
Finally, the proposed assessment methodology calls for a cost-differential formula where Ocean Drive
properties are assessed at a rate of$2.00 per lot square foot and Collins Avenue properties are assessed
at a rate of$1.00 per lot square foot. As a preliminary matter, we should note that location-based, cost-
differential formulas are not unusual for business improvement districts and, in fact, have been utilized
by several local business improvement districts. In the present case, the reason for the cost differential
formula is simple. As noted above, while the Ocean Drive corridor and the Collins Avenue corridor are
roughly equal in terms of linear footage, sidewalk coverage, etc., Ocean Drive is a single-loaded street.
As a result, the cost of providing security, sanitation, and other services on Ocean Drive must be borne
by properties on one side of the street, while the cost of providing similar services on Collins Avenue
may be spread among properties on both sides of the street. Based on the above,we believe the proposed
assessment methodology, including the cost differential, is fair and reasonable and complies with the
legal requirements set forth in Florida case law.
The complete report produced by New York University's Furman Center for Real Estate and Urban Policy is available at
the following link:https://furmancenter.org/files/publications/FurmanCenterBlDsBrief.pdf.
2 The decision to exclude residential properties is based,in part,on the findings of the New York University study,which
found that while BIDs offer substantial benefits to commercial properties,"the formation of a BID has little impact on the
value of residential properties."

To be clear, while the proponents of the BID have considered property location for purposes of
designing a fair and reasonable assessment methodology, the BID proponents view both the Ocean
Drive corridor and the Collins corridor as part of a unified district. As such, they have proposed a unified
budget that serves the entire district. This unified budget will afford the BID reasonable flexibility to
deploy services in a strategic manner that maximizes the benefit to the entire district. For example, it is
anticipated that during the early years of the BID, significant security and sanitation resources will be
focused on Ocean Court as well the various side streets that connect Ocean Drive and Collins Avenue.
The improvement of these "connectors" will not only improve safety and aesthetics within the district,
but it will increase pedestrian connectivity between the dining, hospitality, and entertainment attractions
on Ocean Drive and the dining, hospitality, and shopping destinations on Collins Avenue. It is
anticipated that commercial properties throughout the entire district will receive significant benefits
from this increased connectivity, as well as the complementary marketing and branding efforts that will
strive to create a truly unified district.3
3 This connectivity, as well as BID's (re)branding efforts, will no doubt increase commercial activity within the Collins
Avenue shopping district, which includes designer brands and retailers like Urban Outfitters, Zara, Benetton, Armani
Exchange, Steve Madden, Nine West, Victoria's Secret, GAP, Banana Republic, Tommy Hilfiger, Barneys COOP, Guess,
Levi's True Religion,Sephora,MAC Cosmetics.
