Hudak, City Manager DATE: September 27, 2023 SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE NORMANDY SHORES LOCAL GOVERNMENT NEIGHBORHOOD IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT ADOPTING THE FINAL OPERATING BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 2024. STRATEGIC PLAN SUPPORTED Organizational Innovation — Ensure strong fiscal stewardship ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION Adopt the Resolution which establishes the final operating budget for the Normandy Shores Local Government Neighborhood Improvement District ("District") for Fiscal Year (FY) 2024 in the amount of $316,000. BACKGROUND The Normandy Shores Local Government Neighborhood Improvement District, which is a dependent taxing district of its principal, the City of Miami Beach, was established in 1994 to provide continual 24-hour security to this gated community. FY 2024 represents its thirtieth year of operation. The District was established by Ordinance No. 93-2881 and has the authority "to levy an ad - valorem tax on real and personal property of up to two mills, provided that no parcel of property will be- assessed more than $500 annually for such improvements." On September 11,1997, Resolution No. 97-22522 adopted the District's Tentative FY 1998 millage rate. The accompanying memorandum noted that the City had been funding the gap between the revenues generated from the ad valorem taxes and the budget, that the City could not continue to subsidize this budget and that the District should be self-sustaining. This memorandum also noted that Resolution No. 97-22487 included the City Commission's direction to the City Clerk to take such steps as may be necessary to hold a special referendum for the purpose of authorizing special assessments to raise $41,915 for operating purposes within the District for FY 1998. On September 23, 1998, Resolution No. 98-22902 adopted the District's FY 1999 budget. The accompanying memorandum noted that the City had been funding the gap between the revenues generated from the ad valorem taxes and the budget and that a determination was reached that the City would fund 35% of the annual cost of the community guard gate. It also stated that the cost Page 201 of 550 FY 2024 Final Normandy Shores Budget September 27, 2023 Page 2 of 3 would eventually be funded by the golf course and that the City Attorney's Office would review the issue of the dependent status of the District, and the City would continue supplementing the budget at current levels until both issues are resolved. On September 25, 2002, Ordinance No. 2002-3380 adopted the removal of the $500 annual cap per parcel. The accompanying memorandum noted that the City's 35% contribution would be maintained. In 2015, as part of a "clean up" Ordinance to repeal three other safe neighborhood districts that were no longer active, the Mayor and City Commission enacted Ordinance No. 2015-3928. With respect to the Normandy Shores District, because the prior versions of the ordinance had not been codified as part of the consolidated legislation of the City, the 2015 Ordinance sought to codify the legislation, but in doing so, inadvertently re -adopted the original 1993 Ordinance that included an ad valorem cap of $500 per property and not the correct, most recent, version of the legislation, the 2002 Ordinance, which deleted the cap of $500 per property. In order to correct the inadvertent error in the 2015 Ordinance and eliminate the $500 per property cap, as intended since 2002, the Mayor and City Commission adopted Ordinance No. 2020-4386 on December 9, 2020. On July 28, 2021, the City Commission, based on the recommendation of the Finance and Economic Resiliency Committee at its July 31, 2021 meeting, approved Resolution No. 2021-31819 eliminating the City's 35% subsidy, while continuing to fund 50% of the total cost of the security rover for the District and Normandy Shores golf course. Since then, the annual budget for the Normandy Shores Local Government Neighborhood Improvement District has been funded through a dedicated ad valorem tax levied on property within the District with the City continuing to fund 50% of the total cost of the security rover for the District and Normandy Shores golf course. PROCEDURE The operating millage and budget for this dependent taxing district must be adopted in accordance with Florida Statutes. This procedure requires that this Resolution be considered immediately after the final millage for the District has been adopted (see accompanying District Millage agenda item for details). NORMANDY SHORES BUDGET The FY 2024 budget for the District, as summarized below and further detailed in Attachment A, is $316,000, which is an increase of $34,000, or 12.1 %, from the adopted FY 2023 budget of $282,000.

This levy will generate tax proceeds of $332,611, which will be budgeted at approximately 95.0%, or $315,980 (rounded to $316,000), to account for early payment discounts, delinquencies, etc. and will fund the FY 2024 budget for the District that includes a project for the south gate entrance that was requested by the Normandy Shores Homeowners' Association. CONCLUSION The City Commission, acting in its capacity as the Board of Directors of the Normandy Shores Local Government Neighborhood Improvement District, should adopt the attached Resolution which establishes the final operating budget of $316,000 for the Normandy Shores Local Government Neighborhood Improvement District for FY 2024.
