COMMISSION MEMORANDUM
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission
FROM: Raul J.Aguila, Interim City Manager
DATE: April 29, 2021
SUBJECT:A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, ACCEPTING THE RECOMMENDATION OF
THE FINANCE AND ECONOMIC RESILIENCY COMMITTEE AT ITS
MARCH 26, 2021 MEETING, TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL FUNDING, FROM
THE CITY'S RESILIENCY FUND, FOR THE BAYSHORE PARK (FORMER
PAR 3) PROJECT UTILITY RELOCATION, IN AN ESTIMATED AMOUNT OF
$3.5 MILLION.
RECOMMENDATION
The Administration recommends approving the Resolution.
BACKGROUND/HISTORY
On April 30, 2014, the Mayor and City Commission approved, via Resolution No. 2014-28584,
changing the use and designation of a portion of the Par 3 Golf Course, to accommodate
greenery and open space adjacent to the Scott Rakow Youth Center.
On March 11, 2015, City Commission accepted the recommendation of the
Neighborhoods/Community Affairs Committee to authorize the Administration to utilize the
conceptual park plan with open recreational play areas prepared by the Planning Department as
a basis to prepare a Request for Qualifications (RFQ)for final design.
On May 19, 2016 the City executed an agreement with Savino Miller Design Studio for the
Landscaping,Architectural, and Engineering Design Services for the Bayshore Park Project.
Bayshore Park, located at 2300 Pine Tree Drive, will include 19 beautiful acres of public
recreation space. The park will boast several marquee features such as an outdoor
amphitheater, an iconic water fountain, a children's playground, and tennis courts. The current
total project budget is approximately $21.1 Million, including $15.7 Million from the General
Obligation Bond Program, project design, and contingency. Although the project will greatly
enhance the Bayshore Park neighborhood, it will also create conflicts between many of the
parrs key elements and the existing underground utilities.
The current construction budget is $15M. The project has experienced protracted delays
related to the Miami-Dade County Department of Environmental Resources Management (
Page 262 of 538
DERM)permitting of the planned soil mitigation. Consequently, cost overruns are expected. In
an attempt to mitigate the overruns, the project is currently being value engineered. However,
during the design phase it became apparent that conflicts with the underground utilities would
need to be resolved during construction.
The relocation of the underground utilities was not accounted for in the current budget. In
general, Master Plans are high-level planning tools, and therefore do not consider project
specific details, such as the planned park renovations when programming the replacement or
relocation of utilities within Bayshore Park. In order to complete the project and protect the
existing utilities, additional funding will need to be identified and approved. An option
contemplated by the Administration was utilizing Resiliency Funds, currently with an available
budget of$34.5 Million.
A request for additional funds was presented at the February 19, 2021 Finance and Economic
Resiliency Committee (FERC), which discussion continued to its March 26, 2021 meeting. At
the March 26, 2021 FERC meeting, the Committee members concurred and supported utilizing
the Resiliency Funds in order to proceed with the Par 3 Project relocation. A motion was made
to move the item to the full City Commission for approval.
ANALYSIS
Currently,there are two existing pipelines under the park. The 20-inch water main serves the two
ground storage tanks at the 25th Street Water Booster Station. These ground storage tanks
support essential life safety services during emergencies. In the event of a failure, the City
would be out of compliance with the required regulatory minimum storage, pursuant to FAC 62-
555.320(19).
The 30-inch sewer force main is one of only two major transmission lines serving the entirety of
Mid-Beach and North Beach, as well as our three volume sewer customers (Village of Bal
Harbour, Town of Bay Harbor, and Town of Surfside). Without this sewer force main online, the
City would not be able to sustain sewer operations, as our system is not designed to
accommodate swinging flows between the two transmission lines. Attachment A illustrates the
location of the water main and force main with respect to the planned new park facilities.
The City of Miami Beach has a 25-year plan to update aging water and wastewater
infrastructure, much of which has not been replaced since the City was initially developed.
The Five-Year Critical Needs Capital Plan, which includes the most critical components of the
system, was estimated to cost approximately $122.2 M. The City Commission has approved
the implementation of the first Five-Year Critical Needs Capital Plan and funding sources have
been identified; $72M are funds available to the City from utility revenues, or previous bond
issuances, and the remaining $50.2 Million will be funded through the issuance of new bonds.
The water and force main along Par 3 are not part of the first Five-Year Critical Needs Capital
Plan projects that have been funded and approved however they do form part of the 25-year
infrastructure upgrade plan. Beyond the utility conflicts, the pipelines are over 50 years old and
due for replacement. The 2019 Water System Master Plan determined that portions of the 20-
inch water main had a high probability of failure, due to the age of the pipe. It recommended
replacement of the pipe in 2033-2036, subsequent to the implementation of higher priority water
system projects.

SUPPORTING SURVEY DATA
Results from the 2019 Resident Survey show that 50% of residents rated efforts to manage
stormwater drainage and flooding as excellent or good. In order to continue maintaining
excellent standards in this area, the Administration recommends approving additional funding for
the Bayshore Park(former Par 3) Project relocation.
CONCLUSION
The Administration recommends proceeding with the replacement and relocation of the
pipelines to avoid additional potential costs to the City if these pipes were to fail during or after
the construction of the planned new park facilities. Perhaps more importantly, replacing these
pipelines now would avoid further impact to the park at a future date and avoid undue risks
associated with their replacement after the new conflicts are constructed.
In an effort to keep costs at a minimum the utilities will be relocated within the park and
protected with encasements or carrier pipes to mitigate conflicts. However, the construction
costs will be burdened by the contaminated soils in the area that require proper disposal. The
total cost of the relocation of the two pipelines is estimated at $3.5M. This is a planning level
estimate that can vary widely after the utility relocation is further defined. The Administration
recommends funding these necessary utility relocations from the Resiliency Fund.
