TO: Mayor Philip Levine and Members of the City Commission
FROM: Jimmy L. Morales, City Manager

SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE NORMANDY SHORES
LOCAL GOVERNMENT NEIGHBORHOOD IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT ADOPTING
THE TENTATIVE OPERATING BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 2017/18, SUBJECT TO
A SECOND PUBLIC HEARING SCHEDULED ON MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 2017

ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the Resolution which establishes the tentative operating budget for the Normandy Shores
Local Government Neighborhood Improvement District for FY 2017/18 in the amount of
$277,000, subject to a second public hearing to be held on Monday, September 25 2017.
BACKGROUND
The Normandy Shores Local Government Neighborhood Improvement District, a dependent
taxing district of its principal, the City of Miami Beach, was established in 1994 to provide
continuous 24 -hour security to this gated community; FY 2017/18 represents its twenty - fourth
year of operation.
The District was established by Ordinance 93 -2881, and has the authority "to levy an ad- valorem
tax on real and personal property of up to two mills, provided that no parcel of property will be
assessed more than $500 annually for such improvements ". During FY 1998/99, the amount of
annual funding to be provided by the City and the dependent status of the District were issues
discussed by the Finance and Citywide Projects Committee. A determination was reached that
the City would fund 35% of the annual cost of the operation of the community guardhouse. The
cost would eventually be funded from the operations of the Normandy Shores Golf Course. It
was further agreed that the City would continue to supplement the District at current levels until
both issues were resolved. On August 29, 2002, the Administration met with the Normandy
Shores Local Government Neighborhood Improvement District representatives and agreed to
eliminate the $500 cap on the highest valued home in the District. The enabling legislation was
adopted by the Commission on September 25, 2002. This ensures that the City's contribution
from the General Fund remains at 35% of the operating budget for the District.
PROCEDURE
The operating millage and budget for this dependent special taxing district must be adopted in
accordance with Florida Statutes. This procedure requires that this Resolution be considered
immediately after the tentative millage for the Normandy Shores District has been adopted (See
accompanying District Millage Agenda Item for details).

ANALYSIS
The proposed FY 2017/18 budget is $277,000. This budget includes line items which were
requested and approved by the Normandy District Homeowners' Association on July 6, 2017:
$198,000 for security services, $32,000 for vehicular bollards, signs and lighting, $32,000 for
other repairs and utility costs, $10,000 for video equipment, $3,000 for janitorial services and
$2,000 for an AED Defibrillator. The budget is $20,000 (7.8 percent) higher than the FY 2016/17
adopted budget.
The City of Miami Beach General Fund is required to provide 35% of the total operating
expenditures ($96,000), and the City has funded the 35% for each of the twenty -three years
since the District was established. The amount provided by the General Fund for this purpose in
FY 2016/17 was $88,000.
The $96,000 impact to the General Fund from the FY 2017/18 proposed budget is $8,000 (9.1%)
more than the FY 2016/17 adopted budget impact of $88,000.
To provide the current level of security required by this District, the Administration recommends
the proposed ad valorem millage of 0.9564 mills. This tax levy will generate proceeds of
$181,000. The proposed millage rate is 0.0529 mills lower than the prior year adopted millage
rate of 1.0093. This represents an annual decrease in tax of approximately $14.00 to the
average homesteaded property owner (2017's average value being $436,830).
The tentative operating budget for the District is as follows:
Revenues
Ad Valorem Tax $ 181,000
City's General Fund 96,000
Total $ 277,000
Expenditures
Security Service $ 198,000
Maintenance 35,000
Video System 10,000
Defibrillator 2,000
Signs, bollards,
lighting 32,000
Total $ 277,000
CONCLUSION
The City Commission, acting in its capacity as the Board of Directors of the Normandy Shores
Local Government Neighborhood Improvement District, should adopt the attached Resolution
which establishes a tentative operating budget and schedules the second and final public
hearing.
