DATE: April 22,2020
SUBJECT:A RESOLUTION BY THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, ACCEPTING THE RECOMMENDATION OF
THE CITY MANAGER AND DEFERRING THE COLLECTION DATE OF THE
ANNUAL PARKING FEE IN LIEU PAYMENTS FOR FY 2021 TO AUGUST 1,

RECOMMENDATION
The administration recommends that the City Commission adopt the Resolution to defer the
collection date of the annual parking fee in lieu payments for FY 2021.
BACKGROUND/HISTORY
Section 130-133(a)(2) of the Land Development Regulations of the City Code sets forth the
billing criteria for those projects that utilize a yearly fee-in-lieu payment plan for required parking
impact fees. The annual fee-in-lieu payments must be paid in full by June 1 of each year, for as
long as the applicable use exists.
ANALYSIS
The yearly fee-in-lieu payments for required parking impact fees are due on June 1st. Based on
the code, these fees start to accrue interest and penalties on June 2nd, if they are not paid in
full. In light of the extenuating circumstances associated with the closure of businesses due to
the COVI D-19 pandemic,the administration recommends that the City Commission authorize a
60 day deferment of the payment of the annual PI F accounts. This can be done by Resolution
(see attached).
The attached Resolution would extend the due date for Annual Fee in Lieu Accounts from June
1, 2020 to August 1, 2020, as well as waive the interest and penalties resulting from the
extension. If the attached Resolution is adopted, the City would send out the FY 2021 invoices
(for June 1, 2020 to May 31, 2021)immediately but allow for payments to be deferred up to 60
days, until August 1, 2020. Additionally, the interest and penalties resulting from the extension
would be waived.
There are roughly 60 participants in the yearly fee-in-lieu program and a large majority are
restaurants, with some hotels, daycares and retail operations that can't provide the required
parking. The Annual Fee in Lieu generated approximately$470,000 last year, and we estimated
a similar revenue this year. Because of the CON/ID-19 crisis, the administration believes that

extending a grace period for the payment of the fee is in order.
FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The Administration recommends that the City Commission adopt the attached Resolution to
defer the collection date of the annual parking fee in lieu payments for FY 2021.
