Item Summa /Recommendation:
SECOND READING PUBLIC HEARING
According to Section 327.46 of the Florida Statutes, any municipality may create restricted wake zone regulations for the
safe operation of motorboats and other vessels in or upon waters of that municipality. Further, Section 327.46, F.S.
authorizes local governments to establish boating restricted areas where safety and need requires.
The Commission reviewed and approved Ordinance 2013-3796,establishing restricted wake zones,on April 17,2013(the
"Ordinance"). The Ordinance established a mix of zones: two "Idle Speed, No Wake" zones and one "Slow Speed
Minimum Wake"zone. The first Idle Speed, No Wake zone was created in the area surrounding the public access boat
ramp within the Maurice Gibb Memorial Park, and the second was created surrounding the blind corner presented by the
northwest corner of the Sunset Harbor Yacht Club marina. The single Slow Speed, Minimum Wake Zone was created in
the waters just west of Sunset Harbor which present a serious safety hazard.
The State application process commenced after the approval of the ordinance. As part of the state review process, the
Coast Guard(USCG)and the Florida Fish&Wildlife Conservation Commission(FFWCC)reviewed the Ordinance. The
comments provided by these governmental agencies necessitate minor changes to the approved ordinance. Accordingly,
the Ordinance must be revised in order to address the USCG and FWCC comments.
The changes are very minor:
1)Adjust the location of markers indicating the slow speed zones. Upon further consideration the USCG believes that the
original location of the markers presented a navigational concern.Specifically,the USCG requested that Markers 3,4,and
5 be moved farther out of the Miami Beach channel.Accordingly, Markers 3 and 4 were moved slightly west,and Marker 5
was moved slightly north so as to be removed from the channel.
2)Reduction of the scope of the slow speed zone. The Slow Speed Zone in the original ordinance encompassed the area
west of the Sunset Harbor neighborhood, from the north end of the Sunset Harbor Yacht Club extending south to the
Venetian Causeway. The USCG and FFWC requested that instead of extending all the way south to the Venetian
Causeway, the Slow Speed zone be reduced so that the Slow Speed zone's boundary is approximately level with the
northernmost point of Belle Isle. The two Idle Speed zones are not modified.

Financial Impact Summary:The proposed Ordinance should not have a significant fiscal impact upon the City,as this
Ordinance would only require installation of"idle speed no wake"(no wake)and"slow speed minimum wake"(slow speed)
signs. Considering that the Marine Patrol station is adjacent to the area there is no increase in enforcement costs.

BACKGROUND
According to Section 327.46 of the Florida Statutes, any municipality may create restricted wake
zone regulations for the safe operation of motorboats and other vessels in or upon waters of that
municipality. Further, Section 327.46, F.S. authorizes local governments to establish boating
restricted areas where safety and need requires.
The Commission reviewed and approved Ordinance 2013-3796, establishing restricted wake
zones, on April 17, 2013 (the "Ordinance"). The Ordinance established a mix of zones: two "Idle
Speed, No Wake" zones and one "Slow Speed Minimum Wake" zone. The first Idle Speed, No
Wake zone was created in the area surrounding the public access boat ramp within the Maurice
Gibb Memorial Park, and the second was created surrounding the blind corner presented by the
northwest corner of the Sunset Harbor Yacht Club marina. The single Slow Speed, Minimum
Wake Zone was created in the waters just west of Sunset Harbor which present a serious safety
hazard.
The State application process commenced after the approval of the ordinance. As part of the state
review process, the Coast Guard (USCG) and the Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation
Commission (FFWCC) reviewed the Ordinance. The comments provided by these governmental
agencies necessitate minor changes to the approved ordinance. Accordingly, the Ordinance must
be revised in order to address the USCG and FWCC comments.

The changes are very minor:
1) Adjust the location of markers indicating the slow speed zones. Upon further consideration the
USCG believes that the original location of the markers presented a navigational concern.
Specifically, the USCG requested that Markers 3, 4, and 5 be moved farther out of the Miami
Beach channel. Accordingly, Markers 3 and 4 were moved slightly west, and Marker 5 was moved
slightly north so as to be removed from the channel.
2) Reduction of the scope of the slow speed zone. The Slow Speed Zone in the original ordinance
encompassed the area west of the Sunset Harbor neighborhood, from the north end of the Sunset
Harbor Yacht Club extending south to the Venetian Causeway. The USCG and FFWC requested
that instead of extending all the way south to the Venetian Causeway, the Slow Speed zone be
reduced so that the Slow Speed zone's boundary is approximately level with the northernmost
point of Belle Isle. The two Idle Speed zones are not modified.
SUMMARY
At this time, the FFWC application for approval of the Ordinance is complete. Thereafter, pursuant
to FFWC procedure, the FFWC published notice of the Ordinance and allowed for a 21 day
comment period. In order to ensure that the City had time to address any comments raised during
the FFWC's comment period, second reading of the Ordinance was opened and continued until
after the FFWC's comment period elapsed. The FFWC's comment period closed on March 12th
and no modifications to the Ordinance were necessary. Accordingly, the Ordinance is moving
forward to Second Reading as proposed.
CONCLUSION
The Administration recommends that the City Commission adopt the Ordinance.
