COMMISSION MEMORANDUM
Tp: Mayor Matti Herrera Bower and Members of the 'ty Commission
FROM: Jorge M. Gonzalez, City Manager
DATE: September 24, 2009
SuB,IECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, ADOPTING THE MIAMI BEACH CULTURAL ARTS
COUNCIL'S FISCAL YEAR 2009/10 BUDGET IN THE AMOUNT OF
$1,106,300
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the Resolution.
ANALYSIS
The Cultural Arts Council's (CAC) mission is to develop, coordinate, and promote the visual
and performing arts in Miami Beach for the enjoyment, education, cultural enrichment, and
benefit of residents and visitors. In 1997, the original nine-member volunteer board
conducted town meetings with arts groups to evaluate their needs. It then developed a
cultural arts master plan identifying programs to assist local arts groups: grants, marketing,
facilities, revenue development, and advocacy/planning. The Mayor and City Commission
adopted the master plan on June 3, 1998. Since that time the City has awarded in excess of
$6 million in cultural arts grants, supporting thousands of performances, exhibits, and other
cultural activities in Miami Beach. The CAC continually evaluates its programs and
effectiveness based on comments from its constituent arts groups, advisers, grants
panelists, community groups, elected officials, City administrators, and others. The positive
economic impact of the City's cultural efforts is evident throughout the community as well as
its effect on our quality of life.
Quality of Life Revenue
In Fiscal Year 2004/05, the City Commission authorized equally allocating 50% of the 1 °/a
Resort Tax to North Beach, Middle Beach, and South Beach, and Tourism & Cultural
Development for Cultural Affairs This commitment of funding for arts and culture provided a
new permanent funding source that sustains cultural programming long term.
Cultural Arts Grants
The CAC's recommended annual budget for grants is $630,000, or approximately 57°/a of
the total CAC budget. Additionally, the CAC partnered with the VCA for Cultural Tourism
grants that support cultural events with documented tourism benefits. The VCA provided
$42,500 and the CAC provided $30,000 to fund this program. The City Administration is
recommending grants to 52 not-for-profit organizations for cultural events in Miami Beach
between October 1, 2009 and September 30, 2010. The grant awards range from $5,049 to
$29,785. A total of $1,025,000 was requested by 59 grant applicants in the CAC program
this year. There were an additional 4 applicants in the joint CAC/VCA Cultural Tourism
Program, which yielded $120,000 in grant requests. There is a corresponding item in today's
agenda detailing the recommended awards for Fiscal Year 2009/10.

Marketing
This year, the CAC has recommended $139,882, approximately 12% of its annual budget, to
be utilized to promote the City of Miami Beach as the region's preeminent cultural
destination. Last year's efforts continued the momentum initially generated by the marketing
initiative from FY 2004/05, developed by the CAC's Marketing and Communications Task
Force to better promote the arts in our community and market the programs of the City's
constituent arts groups. The CAC will use these funds to further cultural marketing efforts
for Fiscal Year 2009/10. Additionally, as per the-discussion at the Finance and Citywide
Projects Committee meeting regarding the FY 09/10 Budget, the Administration was directed
to pursue non-General Revenue funding for Sleepless Night. With increased revenue from
Quality of Life Funds for the CAC in FY 09/10, the Administration has budgeted $47,024 in
marketing funds for Sleepless Night.
Endowment
From 1998 through 2001 the City contributed $200,000 towards the CAC's Cultural
Endowment, 8% of the CAC's annual budget. In fiscal years 2001/02 and 2002/03, due to a
decrease in funding sources, the City contributed $160,000, 15% of the CAC's annual
budget. Due to significant decreases in resort tax revenue and interest income, the City did
not contribute to the CAC's Cultural Endowment for 2003/04. However, in fiscal years
2004/05, 2005/06 and 2006/07, the City contributed $100,000 each year. By the end of
Fiscal Year 2006/07 the Cultural Endowment totaled $1,220,000. Last year however, due to
significant decreases in interest income and property tax cuts, the City did not contribute
towards the CAC's Cultural Endowment and the City Administration is not recommending a
contribution in 2009/10.
Administration
The CAC's annual budget also includes $336,418 to be utilized for administrative and
operating expenses. This includes salaries and benefits for two full-time employees,
professional services, operating accounts supporting the CAC's programs and City internal
service charges.
The CAC Administrative budget also includes an allocation of $75,000 to continue and
strengthen curriculum-based arts education programs in the City of Miami Beach Schools.
The City partnered with Arts for Learning/Miami to implement these programs in 2005/06.
The programs are designed to increase arts and cultural activities for Beach artists, youth
and their families at City facilities and within the City schools. An established evaluative
process and constant feedback assist the Cultural Affairs Program staff in monitoring the
high quality and continued success of the programs. Since 2007/08 these programs have
been brought to Biscayne Elementary, Fienberg-Fisher Elementary, Flamingo Park, Nautilus
Middle School, Raindrop Center, Scott Rakow Park, St. Patrick's and Temple Menorah Early
Childhood Centers. This program receives supplemental funding of $30,000 from the
Tourism & Cultural Development General Fund Budget, which brings the program total to
$105,000.
CONCLUSION
The Mayor and City Commission should adopt the Miami Beach Cultural Arts Council's
Fiscal Year 2009/10 budget in the amount of $1,106,300.
