collective bargaining units:
• Group I - Represented by the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees
(AFSCME) Local 1554;
• Group I I - Represented by the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP)William Nichols Lodge No. 8;
• Group III - Represented by the International Association of Firefighters (IAFF)Local 1510;

• Group V - Represented by the Government Supervisors Association of Florida (GSAF),
Page 853 of 2277
OPEI U, Local 100.
In addition, the City has one classified employee group, Group VI, comprising all other
classifications in the classified service not covered by a bargaining unit. This group is commonly
referred to in the City of Miami Beach as "Others". There is a seventh salary group comprised of
at-will employees commonly referred to as Unclassified.
On June 8, 2016, the City Commission ratified a three-year labor agreement between the City
and the IAFF, covering the period October 1, 2015 through September 30, 2018. Included in
the agreement between the Parties is a provision that requires amendments to the Classified
Salary Ordinance (Ordinance No. 789).
The first amendment calls for the implementation of a one percent (1%) across the board cost
living adjustment (COLA), effective the first full pay period ending April of 2016, for all
bargaining unit employees, and providing for a corresponding increase to the minimum and
maximum of each pay range. The one percent (1%) COLA, effective with the first full pay period
in April of 2016, represents an impact of approximately$100,000.
The second amendment calls for the implementation of a three percent (3%) across the board
cost of living adjustment (COLA), effective the first full pay period ending July of 2017, for all
bargaining unit employees, and providing for a corresponding increase to the minimum and
maximum of each pay range. The three percent (3%) COLA, effective with the first full pay
period in July of 2017, represents an impact of approximately$355,000.
The third amendment calls for the implementation of a three percent(3%)across the board cost
of living adjustment (COLA), effective the first full pay period ending July of 2018, for all
bargaining unit employees, and providing for a corresponding increase to the minimum and
maximum of each pay range. The three percent (3%) COLA, effective with the first full pay
period in July of 2018, represents an impact of approximately$982,500.
The estimated figures do not take into consideration current turnover rates or vacant positions;
however, the Administration anticipates the impact of such to be minimal. Any of the
aforementioned classified employees who separate from employment with the City prior to the
date of implementation of the COLA's, will not be eligible to receive the COLA increases.
CONCLUSION
Based upon the agreed upon terms between the City and the IAFF, and the City Commission's
ratification of said agreement, the Administration recommends amending Ordinance No. 789, as
set forth above and in the applicable collective bargaining agreement between the parties.
The Administration recommends approving the proposed ordinance amendments.
