ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION
Approve the Ordinance as proposed. The City Commission approved the ordinance on first
reading on November 28, 2001.
ANALYSIS
The City Administration recommends that the City Commission approve the proposed
Ordinance which would amend Appendix A to Section 14-65 of the City Code entitled "Fee
Schedule" as it relates to elevators, escalators and other lifting apparatus inspection fees
imposed in the City of Miami Beach by the Building Department. The proposed amendment
adds new inspection fees of $75 for witnessing of 1 -year tests and $150 for witnessing of
5-year tests by an elevator inspector employed by the City, as required under the 2001
Florida Statutes.
The 2001 Florida Legislature enacted significant changes to Chapter 399, Florida Statutes,
regarding elevator safety. The changes take effect on January 1, 2002. One important
change that will affect elevator inspections requires the witnessing of periodic inspections
and tests that take place once every year and once every five years as required under
Chapter 61C-5 Florida Elevator Safety Code and ASME A17.1, Part X, Section 1000, Rule
1000.1 b, American National Standard Safety Code for elevators and escalators.
The new fees proposed am projected to generate additional revenues of $148,500.00
during a 12-month period, which will defray the cost of providing for additional elevator
inspection personnel for witnessing of periodic inspections and tests, and will meet the
need to ensure that the quality of services and added safety to City residents remains high.
