LA GORCE ISLAND LIGHTING
IMPROVEMENTS
Lighting Improvement Estimate
The City of Miami Beach, in coordination with the La Gorce Island
Homeowner's Association, will work together to identify and locate areas with
deficient or inadequate lighting. A layout of the island will be produced, outlining
the areas where the additional fixtures will be placed. The available General
Obligation Bond Funds ($200,000) will be split between lighting and landscaping
improvements. The funds available for lighting improvements ($90,000) are
sufficient enough to provide approximately thirty (30) additional lighting fixtures.
Holophane Decorative Acorn lighting fixtures (furnished and
installed).......$3,000 each X 30 fixtures = $90,000.00

MEMORANDUM
TO:
General Obligation Bond Oversight Committee
DATE: April 2, 2001
SUBJECT: Request for approval to recommend to the Miami Beach Commission the expenditure
of $200,000, of General Obligation Bond Fund 373, for landscape and lighting
improvements on La Gorce Island, identified as La Gorce Enhancements in the
General Obligation Bond Neighborhood Project Program List.
As a result of neighborhood meetings, with the La Gorce Island Homeowner's Association, the
residents have expressed interest in lighting and landscape improvements on the island. With the
recent completion of the La Gorce Island Bridge and the associated La Gorce Island Entrance
Landscape Project, there now seems to be a need to pursue improvements beyond the island's
entrance corridor.
The City staff and Administration have determined that the proposed lighting and landscaping
improvements could be performed in-house. Due to the minimal amount of General Obligation
Bond Funds available for this area, any cost savings would be beneficial and could be directly
applied to the proposed enhancements. The Parks and Public Works Departments have acquired
estimates and identified a scope of work.
The amount of $200,000 would be applied to the purchase and installation of an additional thirty
(30) light fixtures as well as approximately twenty-two (22) Royal Palms and ten (10) Canary Island
Date Palms. The City of Miami Beach will acquire competitive bids for the purchase of the desired
materials as well as coordinating and performing installations.
The Administration is requesting the approval to recommend to the Miami Beach Commission the
expenditure of $200,000 for the La Gorce Enhancements Project as outlined in the General
Obligation Bond Neighborhood Project Program List. Funding is available from the series 2000
General Obligation Bond Fund no. 373.

A RESOLUTION F THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, APPROPRIATING FUNDS IN THE
AMOUNT OF $200,000 FROM THE $92 MILLION GENERAL
OBLIGATION BOND - SERIES 2000 FUND NO. 373, FOR THE
CONSTRUCTION OF THE LA GORCE ISLAND ENHANCEMENTS
PROJECT, WITHIN THE LA GORCE NEIGHBORHOOD
IMPROVEMENTS OUTLINED IN THE GENERAL OBLIGATION BOND
PROJECT PROGRAM LIST.
FROM:
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the Resolution
FUNDING:
Funding is available from the $92 Million General Obligation Bond - Series 2000 Fund No. 373.
ANALYSIS:
Due to the recent availability of General Obligation' bond funds, the City has pursued communication
with the La Gorce Island residents in an effort to identifY needs of the neighborhood. During several
Neighborhood Meetings with the La Gorce Island Homeowner's Association, residents have
expressed strong interest in improving the appearance ofthe island with enhancements to existing
landscaping and lighting.
The City's Public Works and Parks Departments have prepared preliminary estimates for landscaping
and lighting enhancements based on the availability of General Obligation Bond funds in the amount
of $200,000.00. Preliminary estimates for lighting, prepared by the Public Works Department,
allows for thirty additional lighting fixtures at an estimated cost of $90,000 (see exhibit "A").
Preliminary estimates by the Park's Department allow for $104,000 to be expended on additional
landscaping comprised of Royal Palms and Canary Island Date Palms (see exhibit "B"). The
Department of Public Works will charge a three percent (3%) fee ($6,000) for internal construction
management services.

The Parks Department has proceeded with the letting of material bids in order to establish prices and
availability of the desired plant material. Once received, a more finite estimate can be prepared and
presented to the Community reflecting maximum landscape material quantities available through
the use of existing funding.
City staff recently attended the La Gorce Island Homeowner Association's annual meeting, on March
31, 200 I, to present estimates for the proposed landscaping and lighting, identifY funding and
discuss scope of work and scheduling. The Association overwhelmingly approved and supported
the proposals. In addition, the General Obligation Bond Oversight Committee approved the
recommendation to appropriate these funds at the meeting held April 2, 2001 (see exhibit "C").
Due to the limited amount of General Obligation funds specifically identified for La Gorce Island,
the City will propose to perform the enhancements in-house in an effort to minimize the design
budget and maximize the construction budget. The estimates prepared by the City included labor
charges as well as material costs.
The City of Miami Beach anticipates a $45.00 annual maintenance cost per tree (fertilization and
trimming). It is anticipated that the total annual cost will not exceed $7,000.00 and will be handled
under an existing contract or by the Department of Parks & Recreation. The Department of Public
Works will install and maintain the proposed additionalligbt fixtures. Annual electrical usage costs
per fixture is approximately $60.00 for a total of$I,800 annually. The City of Miami Beach will
assume these additional maintenance and operational costs.
Th~ation recommends approval of the attached Resolution.
