RECOMMENDATION Approve the Resolution. BACKGROUND On January 13, 2016, the City Commission, after discussion, approved the revised South Beach Trolley route and service plan, and authorized staff to negotiate a new Interlocal Agreement with Miami-Dade County to enable the City to operate the South Beach Trolley service upon the termination of the existing South Beach Local service by the County. On July 20, 2016, the City Commission, after discussion, approved an amendment to the agreement with the City's trolley service provider to expedite the purchase and delivery of 12 low-floor trolley vehicles needed for implementation of South Beach Trolley service, subject to the County's approval of the Interlocal Agreement required for the City to operate this service. From a regional connectivity perspective, on April 21, 2016, the Miami-Dade Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) Governing Board officially adopted and endorsed the Strategic Miami Area Rapid Transit (SMART) Plan which includes the Beach Corridor Rail Connection Project. As part of the SMART Plan, the County is proposing Bus Express Rapid Transit (BERT) service across the Macarthur and Julia Tuttle Causeways connecting the City of Miami and Miami Beach as a short- term mass transit solution in advance of the proposed Beach Corridor Rail Connection Project. ANALYSIS Transportation Department staff has been coordinating with the County for approval of the Page 703 of 1025 Interlocal Agreement for the Operation of the City's Proposed South Beach Trolley Service. The Interlocal Agreement is scheduled for approval by the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) at its March 73 2017 meeting (see attached County Memorandum/Resolution). The Agreement ensures no interruption of service between the termination of the South Beach Local and commencement of the South Beach Trolley service, as directed by the City Commission at the July 20, 2016 City Commission meeting. The County currently covers approximately 2/3 of the annual operating cost of the South Beach Local service (approximately $2.6 Million) while the City covers approximately 1/3 of the cost (approximately $1.3 Million). The City is requesting that the County reallocate its current contribution to the South Beach Local service for use in connection with the implementation of a new enhanced or express bus service across the MacArthur Causeway and/or Julia Tuttle Causeway serving the City of Miami Beach upon commencement of the City-funded South Beach Trolley service and termination of the current Interlocal Agreement for the County's South Beach Local service, anticipated to occur in November 2017 as part of the County's bus service line-up changes. CONCLUSION New County enhanced or express bus service connecting the cities of Miami and Miami Beach coupled with the City's ongoing efforts to improve mobility within the City is anticipated to have a significant impact on mobility by providing a more efficient and reliable regional mass transit alternative. Additionally, the requested re-allocation of County funds from the South Beach Local to new express bus service in Miami Beach would ensure that the County's current resources are utilized for improved transit service in the City of Miami Beach.

Bovow. and Members, Board of County C ioners From: Carlos A. Gimenez Mayor -� _` Subject: Resolution Approving an Interlocal Agree ent Between Miami-Dade County and the City of Miami Beach for the Provision of Public Transportation Services and Operation of the South Beach Trolley and Authorizing the County Mayor or County Mayor's Designee to Discontinue the South Beach Local Route (Route 123) Upon the City of Miami Beach Beginning the South Beach Trolley Route RECOiVIMENDATION It is recommended that the Board of County Commissioners (Board) approve an Interlocal Agreement (Agreement) between Miami-Dade County (County) and the City of Miami Beach (City) for the provision of public transportation services and operation of the South Beach Trolley. SCOPE This. Interlocal Agreement allows the City to provide municipal circulator services within the South Beach area bounded by Washington Avenue to the East, Dade Boulevard to the North, west Avenue to the West and South Pointe Drive to the South. The proposed South Beach Trolley route and service plan represents an enhancement to mobility within the area as it features the following: • A new fleet of ten low-floor vehicles with a capacity of 30 passengers for each vehicle • Air Conditioning in all vehicles • Fare free service • 10-15 minute frequency • Real time information of vehicles both via phone and mobile application • Customer service tailored to the South Beach atmosphere • Service from 6:00 AM to 12:00 AM, Monday through Saturday • Service from 8:00 AM to 12:00 AM on Sundays • Year-round service • More frequent connection to County regional routes: C, M, 120 and S The proposed route will serve several points of interest including but not limited,to: Lummus Park, Publix Supermarket, South Shore Branch Library, South Pointe Park;-Whole Foods Market, Flamingo Park, Lincoln Mall, Washington Avenue Shops, Miami Beach Convention Center, the Fillmore Miami Beach, the Jackie Gleason Theatre, 17 Street, and City Hall, The Agreement replaces an existing interlocal Agreement between the County and the City which provides for the operation of the South Beach Local service (Route 123), The Agreement for the proposed South Beach Trolley incorporates language extending the South Beach Local service until the next available Miami-Dade Department of Transportation and Public Works (DTPW) line-up when the bus service may be smoothly transitioned to trolley service, avoiding interruptions in service, Page 705 of 1025 i I Honorable Chairman Esteban L. Bovo, Jr. and Members, Board of County Commissioners Page 2 Upon the City beginning the operation of the South Beach Trolley route, the County Mayor or the County Mayor's designee is authorized to discontinue County operation of the South Beach Local route (Route 123). Since this item authorizes the County Mayor or the County Mayor's designee to discontinue a route, a public hearing is required in accordance with Section 2150 of the County Code, FISCAL IMPACT The County currently pays for two-thirds (2/3) of the annual operating cost of the South Beach Local (approximately $2,6 million). The City has expressed its commitment to completely fund the proposed South Beach Trolley, yielding an annual savings to the County of approximately $2.6 million. The proposed service will be free to the end-user, TRACK RECORD/MONITOR The project manager for the Agreement will be Gerald Bryan, Chief of Service Planning and Scheduling, DTPW. BACKGROUND In 1998, the City started the operation of the Electrowave Shuttle, a transit service designed as an alternative form of public transportation on the eastern side of South Beach (mainly along Washington Avenue) in order to mitigate impacts of traffic congestion and lack of parking facilities, The City approached the County in 2004 to outline a scope of services and plans for a possible DTPW operation of the Electrowave. An agreement was reached to have DTPW operate the Electrowave service through an enhancement of DTPW's Route W, Prior to the enhancement, Route W operated a one-direction service along 17 Street, West Avenue/Alton Road, South Pointe Drive and Washington Avenue, Upon the merger of both routes, the service became bi-directional and was renamed to "The ' South Beach Local," The South Beach Local began interim operation in September 2005 and permanent operation in February 2006. As part of the agreement for the South Beach Local, it was negotiated by the County and the City that approximately one-third (1/3) of the overall annual operational cost of the route would be covered by the City. in February 2012, the South Beach Local Agreement between the County and the City was renewed for an additional five-year term, and an option to renew upon mutual agreement was included. In January 2016, the City Commission approved a route and service plan for a South Beach Trolley and directed the City's Administration to work with the County to develop an Interfocal Agreement. DTPW staff advised the City that the proposed service was duplicative of_DTPW's South Beach Local route and that no Interlocal Agreement with a duplication of services could be approved. As such, DTPW advised the City to provide a formal response regarding the upcoming renewal of the South Beach Local Agreement in order to properly inform the Board, and determine the best course of action. In June 2016, the City formally notified DTPW of Its desire to extend the current Interlocal Agreement between the County and the City for the operation of the South Beach Local until vehicles for a City operated trolley service were manufactured and ready for a seamless transition, at which time the South Beach Local service would be discontinued, DTPW has reviewed the proposed route alignment and service plan, and agrees that it represents an improvement to mobility within the vicinity given that it proposes, among other things, a new fleet of . vehicles and higher frequency of service consistent throughout the day. It also provides DTPW with an opportunity to reallocate funding currently dedicated to the South Beach Local route to address other regional transportation needs, Page 706 o 25 Honorable Chairman Esteban L. Bovo, Jr. and Members, Board of County Commissioners Page 3 The proposed South Beach Trolley would be completely financed and operated by the City through a full-turnkey contract with a third party (an opportunity to bid for the service was provided to the County). Transit operators currently assigned to the South Beach Local route will be able to choose work assignments in other DTPW operated routes through the department's bi-annual bid process. The Agreement allows the City to provide residents and visitors with public transportation services in accordance with Chapter 31, Article lll, Section 31-113 of the County Code, which relates to the ability of municipalities to operate public transit services only under Interlocal Agreements with the County. The City will operate the service at no cost to patrons. In the case the City may charge a fare, similar to other agreements for service, the Agreement requires the City to enact a fare structure to include the acceptance of all DTPV passes, transfers, or identifications entitling an eligible passenger to ride the service without paying an additional fare (i.e., Patriot Passport and Golden Passport) or for half fare (i.e. kindergarten— 12th grade students).
