COMMISSION MEMORANDUM NO. ~ 30-00

SUBJECT:
A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, APPROVING AND ADOPTING A
REVISED LIST OF PROJECT PRIORITIES FOR THE ROAD IMPACT FEE
(RIF) PROGRAM, DISTRICT 8, MIAMI BEACH; AND FURTHER
REQUESTING THAT MIAMI-DADE COUNTY REVISE THE 2001-2005 RIF
PROGRAM ACCORDINGLY.
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION
,
Adopt the Resolution.
ANAL YSIS
The Miami-Dade County Road Impact Fee (RIF) Program may have accumulated up to $8 million
in funds collected, within the last five years, from development and redevelopment projects in
Miami Beach/Fisher Island, or RIF District 8. The Program was created by the County to fund
capacity enhancement projects to be done by County Public Works, on Miami-Dade roadways under
County jurisdiction. There are only three (3) Miami Beach roads under County jurisdiction, being
Pine Tree Drive, La Gorce Drive, and the 23rd Street/Dade BoulevardNenetian Way corridor.
Although the Program policies restrict the use of RIF, the Administration wishes to have greater
accessibility to and control over these funds, so that they can be used toward the implementation of
priority projects, as determined by the City. A list of such priority projects was adopted by the City
Commission and submitted to the County in 1999, but failed to achieve the desired results because
a majority of the projects did not meet the current rules and regulations established by the County's
RIF Program Ordinance.
The City is now employing a different and comprehensive approach to the issue, as follows:
1. On May 10, 2000, the City adopted Resolution No. 2000-23919, urging Miami-Dade County
to amend its policies with regard to RIF fees to allow for flexibility in the use of funds for
non-traditional improvement projects, to adopt the Miami Beach Municipal Mobility Plan
as a guide for capital improvement projects implementation, and give immediate attention
to the backlog of Miami Beach general roadway maintenance projects.

2. The Administration has met several times with the County staff and reached a mutual
understanding regarding the use of the RIF proceeds.
3. Based on recommendations made by the MMP Implementation Plan and the General
Obligation Bond Program, both approved within the last two months of 1999, a revised list
of Miami Beach Program Priorities for the RIF Program is herein submitted for your
consideration, as Exhibit A to the enabling Resolution.
On May 17, 2000, the Mayor and City staff members met with County Commissioner Bruno
Barreiro and the RIF Task Force, and agreed to the County-proposed resolution to be submitted for
approval at its next Commission meeting. The proposed County resolution would allow the City to
use RIF funds for improvements beyond the "capacity" category, and would remove restrictions on
the type of roadways to which the funds can be applied. From then on, local roads will also be
eligible. Furthermore, the City is providing the County with a copy of its adopted Concurrency
Management Ordinace. It will serve as a guide for developing provisions in the County's RIF
process for allowing lower assessments on redevelopment projects, located within the urban infill
boundaries, that have historic designation and are undergoing major rehabilitation or renovation.
The Administration recommends approval of the Resolution.
