ANALYSIS
1 . Application to Robert Wood Johnson Foundation in the approximate amount of
$25.000 for expansion of the School Nurse Initiative Program
The goal of this program is to provide quality health care easily accessible to all youth in Miami
Beach and our neighboring municipalities. The City of Miami Beach started a journey to enhance
youth's lives in our community, beginning in 2006. The City Commission directed the
administration to develop a collaborative Education Compact between the Miami-Dade County
Public School system and the City, with measurable goals for enhanced learning, and child well-
being. Over the following years, the challenges, opportunities, and needs of the community's
youth were studied. The challenge discovered: Public schools in Miami Beach were losing
students and achievement ratings was low when there was an increase in school taxes. The

City's hope was that by joining with Miami-Dade County Public Schools, and other community
stakeholders, we could better align resources to ensure that children were well-equipped with
tools for success in school, and beyond.
After research, community meetings, business input, and professional opinions, the City signed
the Education Compact. In January 2008, the City of Miami Beach developed an Education
Compact with Miami-Dade County Public Schools to build on existing programs and innovative
ideas, and to enhance the educational opportunities for the entire community.
The City then went on to implement health and well-being initiatives, including: Nurse Initiative,
Parent Program and Mobile Clinic, Health and Wellness education and Success University.
Today, one in three children suffers developmental or behavioral disabilities that limit their health
and school performance. In response, the City of Miami Beach has now partnered with relevant
organizations to offer enhanced behavioral health screening, support and community referral
services to children in three public schools in the Miami Beach feeder pattern. Funding will be
requested from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation in the amount of $25,000 for behavioral
health services in the schools including: cognitive-behavioral therapy, family therapy, systemic
therapy, play therapy, parent/teacher conferences and home visits. This grant does not require
matching funds and supports the key intended outcome to achieve educational (K-12)
excellence.
2 . Application to Florida Department of Environmental Protection. Recreation
Development and Assistance Program (FRDAP) for funding in the approximate
amount of$200.000 for the Muss Park Playground construction project
The State of Florida, Department of Environmental Protection, provides funding for the
acquisition and development of land for public outdoor recreation use through the Florida
Recreation Development Assistance Program (FRDAP). The City has applied for funding
from FRDAP for the construction of the new playground at Muss Park.
If awarded, funding will be used primarily for construction of the new playground. The
playground will be fully accessible. The Administration has requested funding, in the amount
of $200,000. Matching funds in the amount of $200,000 are available in project
'pkmmussprk'and 'Muss Park Playground and Other improvements Project Number 20137'.
This project supports the key intended outcome to maximize the Miami Beach brand as a
world class destination.
3 . Application to Florida Junior Golf Council in the approximate amount of $5.000 for
golf clubs and equipment for the Normandy Shores Golf Course Youth Clinic
The Normandy Shores Golf Course Youth Clinic was founded in 2008, and is a youth program
started in conjunction with the re-opening of the Normandy Shores Golf Course. The mission of
the program is to impact the lives of young people by providing learning facilities and
educational programs that promote character development and life-enhancing values through
the game of golf. Research shows that the primary reason more children (and especially
economically disadvantaged children)do not play golf is because of: (1) the lack of places that
welcomed them, (2)transportation challenges, and (3) lack of affordability.
The Normandy Shores Golf Course Youth Clinic is a way to bring golf to youth who otherwise
Page 152 of 906
would not be exposed to the game and its positive values. The goal of the program is to
establish a quality and self-sustaining golf learning program that will provide youth with an
avenue to learn the fundamentals of golf along with the values of the game of golf including
rules, etiquette, history, tradition, and respect. Additionally, the program is committed to provide
ongoing access to each graduate as a way to complete and achieve our goal.
The City has applied for funding to support the Normandy Shores Golf Course Youth Clinic;
funds may be requested in the approximate amount of $4,000 for golf instruction, course
access and/or practice range facility access, life skills training/curriculum, golf equipment,
transportation provided for participants, snacks, clothing, and fees. This grant does not require
matching funds. This project supports the key intended outcome to maximize the Miami Beach
brand as a world class destination.
4 . Execute an Agreement with Florida Department of Environmental Protection in the
amount of $250.000 For a cast iron water line replacement on Alton Road from Michigan
Avenue to North Bay Road
The City has been awarded funding, through the Fiscal Year 2016 State Legislative process for
a water line replacement project on Alton Road. The agreement in the amount of $250,000 is
for a Cast Iron Water Line Replacement project on Alton Road from Michigan Avenue to North
Bay Road. The Project is located in the Middle Beach neighborhood. The project includes
construction of a 20-inch Ductile Iron Pipe Water Distribution Main on Alton Road from 20th
Street to 43rd Street. Alton Road is a state roadway. The 20 inch water main will replace an 8
inch cast iron pipe that is in deteriorated condition. This project is critically important because it
affects the water pressure at Mount Sinai Hospital (the only hospital on Miami Beach). The new
20 inch Water Distribution Main will maintain an acceptable water pressure of 65 pounds per
square inch which will provide sufficient water flow for fire hydrants. The new water main will
replace the existing water mains, which are failing and are at end of life cycle.
This project does not require matching funds and supports the key intended outcome to ensure
reliable stormwater management and resiliency against flooding by implementing select short
and long-term solutions including addressing sea-level rise.
5 . Execute Agreement with Florida Department of Environmental Protection in the
amount of $250.000 for a 20-inch Water Line Replacement on Alton Road from 43rd to
63rd Street
The City has been awarded funding, through the Fiscal Year 2016 State Legislative process for
a second water line replacement project on Alton Road. The second agreement, also in the
amount of $250,000 is for the Miami Beach 20-inch Water Line Replacement on Alton Road
from 43rd to 63rd Street. The project is located in the North Beach neighborhood. The City
intends to upgrade the existing infrastructure in the North Beach neighborhood to the
recommendations provided in the Stormwater Master Plan. This is the replacement of a 20-inch
diameter cast iron water line. This project stretches along Alton Road, from south of 43rd Street
to W 63rd Street. Alton Road is a State roadway.
This project does not require matching funds and supports the key intended outcome to ensure
reliable stormwater management and resiliency against flooding by implementing select short
and long-term solutions including addressing sea-level rise.
