The City of Miami Beach provides a wide range of municipal services including Police; Fire-
Rescue; Parks and Recreation; Water, Sewer, Stormwater, and Sanitation; and Public
Works. The City's annual operating budget allows us to address the needs of the
community and includes:
• The General Fund
• General Obligation Debt Service Fund
• Enterprise Funds
• Transfers to the Redevelopment Agency
• Internal Service Funds
• Other Special Revenue Funds
The General Fund is the primary operating fund for the City and includes much of the usual
activities of any municipality including Police, Fire, Parks and Recreation, Public Works
Streets and Engineering, Building, Tourism and Culture as well as general administrative
functions,and the Office of the Mayor and Commission. Within the General Fund, Citywide
Accounts reflect expenditures that do not fall under the purview of a particular Department
such as accumulated leave payments, grants to social service agencies, non-profits, and
special studies. They are monitored by the Office of Budget and Performance Improvement
and the City.
General Obligation Debt is the debt service funding required for voter-approved bonds
issued with the belief that a municipality will be able to repay its debt obligation through
taxation or revenue from projects. No assets are used as collateral.
The Enterprise Fund Budget is comprised of Departments that use revenues received for
services provided to the general public on a continuing basis and are primarily financed
through user charges.The criteria used to determine if an operation should be an enterprise
fund includes: 1)that it generates revenues; 2)that it provides services to the community;
and 3)that it operates as a stand-alone entity, without subsides from taxes etc. The City's
Enterprise Fund Departments are: Convention Center, Sanitation, Stormwater, Water,
Sewer, and Parking.
The City of Miami Beach Redevelopment Agency is a separate entity,whose Chairperson
and Board of Directors are also the City's Mayor and City Commission.
Internal Service Funds are used to account for the financing of goods and services provided
by one department to other departments on a cost-reimbursement basis. Internal Service
Fund rates are set to recover the full cost of providing a particular service. The Internal
Service Funds budgeted expenditures are completely offset by revenues received from the
General Fund, Enterprise Fund Departments and Special Revenue Funds. The City's
Internal Service Fund Departments are Information Technology, Central Services, Risk
Management, Property Management, and Fleet Management.
