COMMISSION ITEM SUMMARY
Cnndr~tnsed Title'
A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA,
ADOPTING THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH CAPITAL BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR
F 2008/09
Cey Intended Outcome Supported:
Increase Community Satisfaction with City Services
Supporting Data (Surveys, Environmental Scan, etc.): Based on the 2007 community survey, recently completed
capital projects were highly rated by the community. However, they are also a major driver of perceptions of value of
services for tax dollars paid, whether the City is better or worse than a few years ago, and overall quality of life. Road
conditions and storm drainage are capital-related areas still identified as key areas of focus.
Issue'
Should the Commission amend the City of Miami Beach FY 2008/09 Capital Budget?
Item Summarya'Recommenaation:
Of the total of $180,305,770 approved in the Adopted Capital Budget for FY 2008/09, approximately $22 million in
proposed new water and sewer bonds, $39.1 million in proposed new stormwater bonds, $22.9 million in Parking
Bonds, and $18.6 million in South Pointe Financing were anticipated for FY 2008/09 but were not appropriated
pending anticipated issuance of the financing as part of a multi-year financing plan. In total, approximately $45.4
million for water projects, $4.9 million for sewer projects, and $94.65 million for stormwater projects were anticipated
to be preliminarily financed though a line of credit that would ultimately be replaced by water, sewer and stormwater
bonds issued over a series of years beginning in FY 2009/10. Under this approach, the City intended to first seek a
line of credit which will allow the City to have the necessary funding capacity to enter into new projects, while allowing
the City more time to both build the necessary rate capacity to issue additional tax-exempt bonds through rate
increases and also spend down the current committed but unspent bond proceeds.
The issuance for the line of credit in Water and Sewer and stormwater as well as the Parking Bonds and South
Pointe financing for the South Pointe Sewer Pump Station anticipated for Fiscal Year 2008/09 has been impacted by
the destabilization and lack of liquidity of the financial markets. This has slowed the process of accessing funding
although the City is currently working with its Financial Advisors and actively pursuing credit lines. The most
immediate need to keep infrastructure projects moving forward is $7,140, 847 ($4,539,017 stormwater related and
$2,601,830 water and sewer related). To fund these needs, the appropriations below are recommended to substitute
for the "Future Bonds" identified in the Adopted Capital Budget for FY 2008/09 until such time as financing can be put
in place. It proposed that when the City is able to issue stormwater Bonds that the stormwater Operating Funds will
be reimbursed. To allow reimbursement from future bonds, the Commission must declare the intent of the City to
reimburse itself and, therefore, to preserve this option appropriate language is provided in the related resolution.

COMMISSION MEMORANDUM
To: Mayor Matti Herrera Bower and Members of the City Commission
FROM: Jorge M. Gonzalez, City Manager
DATE: February 25, 2009
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, ADOPTING THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE CITY
OF MIAMI BEACH CAPITAL BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR (FY) 2008/09 AND
DECLARING THE INTENT OF THE CITY TO ISSUE DEBT OF THE CITY TO
REIMBURSE ITSELF FOR FUNDS ADVANCED FOR CERTAIN STORMWATER
EXPENSES
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the Resolution.
BACKGROUND
Planning for capital improvements is an ongoing process; as needs change within the City,
capital programs and priorities must be adjusted. The Capital Improvement Plan ("CIP")
serves as the primary planning tool for systematically identifying, prioritizing and assigning
funds to critical City capital development, improvements and associated needs, and the
City's annual capital budget represents the first year of that plan.
Of the total of $180,305,770 approved in the Adopted Capital Budget for FY 2008/09,
approximately $22 million in proposed new water and sewer bonds, $39.1 million in
proposed new stormwater bonds, $22.9 million in Parking Bonds, and $18.6 million in South
Pointe Financing were anticipated for FY 2008/09 but were not appropriated pending
anticipated issuance of the financing as part of a multi-year financing plan. In total,
approximately $45.4 million for water projects, $4.9 million for sewer projects, and $94.65
million for stormwater projects were anticipated to be preliminarily financed though a line of
credit that would ultimately be replaced by water, sewer and stormwater bonds issued over a
series of years beginning in FY 2009/10. Under this approach, the City intended to first seek
a line of credit which will allow the City to have the necessary funding capacity to enter into
new projects, while allowing the City more time to both build the necessary rate capacity
(debt service coverage) to issue additional tax-exempt bonds through rate increases and
also spend down the current committed but unspent bond proceeds. Further this approach
provides the City with more time to refine the cost estimates for the water, sewer, stormwater
and parking projects anticipated for FY 2008/09.

ANALYSIS
The issuance for the line of credit in Water and Sewer and Stormwater as well as the
Parking Bonds and South Pointe financing for the South Pointe Sewer Pump Station
anticipated for Fiscal Year 2008/09 has been impacted by the destabilization and lack of
liquidity of the financial markets. This has slowed the process of accessing funding although
the City is currently working with its Financial Advisors and actively pursuing credit lines.
Nonetheless, the administration remains committed to the goal of keeping the infrastructure
projects moving forward.
The financing requirements related to Parking Operations were addressed for the short term
in December as part of the approval for the Sunset Harbor Parking Garage. Below are the
anticipated funding timeline requirements for the remaining projects.

As can be seen from the table, the most immediate need is for $7,140,847, of which
$4,539,017 is stormwater related and $2,601,830 is water and sewer related. In order to
fund these needs, the following appropriations are recommended to substitute for the
"Future Bonds" identified in the Adopted Capital Budget for FY 2008/09 until such time as
financing can be put in place:
Water and Sewer Bonds 2000S Interest $ 1,200,793
Water & Sewer Gulf Breeze 2006 Interest 1,401,037
Sub-total $ 2,601,830

$ 950,207
421,275
3,167,535
Sub-total $ 4,539,017
Total $ 7,140,847
It is proposed that when the City is able to issue stormwater Bonds that the stormwater
Operating Funds will be reimbursed. To allow reimbursement from future bonds, the
Commission must declare the intent of the City to reimburse itself and, therefore, to preserve
this option appropriate language is provided in the related resolution.
The City is continuing to pursue financing alternatives and will continue to evaluate project
timing and needs on a case by case basis.
CONCLUSION:
The Administration recommends adoption of the attached Resolution, which amends the
Capital Budget for FY 2008/09 and declares the intent of the City to issue debt of the City to
reimburse itself for funds advanced for certain stormwater expenses.
