SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF
THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, AMENDING CHAPTER 30
OF THE MIAMI BEACH CITY CODE, ENTITLED "CODE
ENFORCEMENT," BY AMENDING ARTICLE II, ENTITLED
"SPECIAL MASTER," BY AMENDING SECTION 30-37, ENTITLED

Commissioner Michael Grieco is sponsoring this ordinance amendment, which will increase the
hourly rate for the City's Special Master. The proposed Ordinance amendment will increase the
hourly compensation amount for those Special Masters appointed by the Chief Special Master.
The hourly rate will be adjusted to $150.00 (a $50.00 per hour increase), which reflects the
current prevailing rates for other governmental agencies within Miami-Dade County that employ
such Special Masters. This ordinance amendment will serve to represent a more realistic and
equitable compensation amount for the City's Special Masters.
The Mayor and City Commission held a first reading of this matter on January.13, 2016, and the
Ordinance amendment was passed unanimously.
The fiscal impact is anticipated to range from $15,200.00 to $19,350.00, which is contingent
upon the amount of hours that are expended by the Special Masters throughout the fiscal year.
