2018 MEETING, FOR THE ADMINISTRATION TO: (1) IDENTIFY A
TARGETED LEVEL OF SERVICE FOR THE DEPLOYMENT OF TEMPORARY '
PUMPS, (2) DEVELOP A FISCAL YEAR 2019 (FY2019) BUDGET AND (3)
FIND A FUNDING SOURCE FOR THE DEPLOYMENT OF TEMPORARY
PUMPS; AND (4) RECOMMEND AN IMPLEMENTATION PROCESS FOR THE

WHEREAS, to meet the stormwater needs of the City of Miami Beach (the "City"), the City is
investing over $650 million in various infrastructure improvements, which improvements will need to be
made over an estimated span of 10 years; and
WHEREAS, the infrastructure improvements include installing larger pipes, building pump
stations, and raising roads to ensure that the roads do not flood in future tidal and rainfall events; and
WHEREAS, during King Tide events, to prevent localized street flooding in areas where the
roadway elevation is lower than the high tide levels, temporary pumps have been installed at and the
water has been pumped to the adjacent canal or Biscayne Bay; and
WHEREAS, typically, pumps have been deployed in these lower areas, such as along upper
North Bay Road, Orchard Park, Indian Creek, Tatum Waterway, and other North Beach areas; and
WHEREAS, all temporary pump locations have been permitted through DERM, which
deployment incorporates best management practices to protect water quality (including, but not limited to,
cleaning of the stormwater system in the area adjacent to the temporary pumps to remove-potential
pollutants); and
WHEREAS, in Fiscal Year 2018, $325,410 was spent on temporary pumps, not including the cost
of fuel and labor to operate the equipment; and
WHEREAS, costs associated with the increased use of, and requests for, temporary pumps will
continue to increase as higher tides occur during each King Tide season; and
WHEREAS, the City's current stormwater rates do not include components for widespread usage
of rental temporary pump installations; and
WHEREAS, a continued reliance on temporary equipment to alleviate flooding will require a
permanent source of funding, as, until now, the costs have been paid from the stormwater utility's
operations and maintenance fund; and WHEREAS, the stormwater utility operations and maintenance
fund, in its current design, is unable to continue to fund this temporary pump practice into the future
without neglecting the intended operations and maintenance obligations for the stormwater system; and
WHEREAS, a resolution regarding the utilization of temporary pumps and generators was placed
on the July 25, 2018 City Commission meeting agenda and the City Commission took up the item; and
WHEREAS, after several members provided comments with regards to the draft resolution, the
item was referred to the Sustainability and Resiliency Committee for further discussion; and
WHEREAS, at its September 26, 2018 meeting, the Sustainability and Resiliency Committee
moved to have the Administration: (1) identify a targeted level of service for temporary pumps; (2)
develop a Fiscal Year 2018 proposed budget for the deployment of temporary pumps; (3) find a
permanent funding source; and (4) implement a recommended process for deployment of the temporary
pumps; and to (5) bring the item back to the City for approval; and
WHEREAS, consistent with the direction of the Sustainability and Resilience Committee, the
Administration has determined that the targeted level of service for temporary pumps, during King Tide
events, for previously identified low laying areas not equipped with permanent stormwater pumping
stations, will be to maintain the roads passable for vehicles and pedestrians; and
WHEREAS, this level of service will require the City to deploy of at least 25 temporary pumps, at
an estimated cost of$270,000.00 [assuming three (3) months of King Tides, in the Spring, and three (3)
months of King Tides, in the Fall], which plan for deployment for temporary pump stations is attached
hereto as Exhibit 1; and
WHEREAS, consistent with the direction of the Sustainability and Resiliency Committee, the
Administration has identified $272,000.00 in the Fiscal Year 2019 Stormwater Maintenance and
Operations Fund; and
WHEREAS, it is expected that the pumps can keep the roadways free of standing water;
provided, however, some additional roadways may experience temporary flooding depending on
the magnitude of the tides; and
WHEREAS, the Public Works Department will closely monitor the National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)tidal predictions for our area and implement deployment of
temporary pumps, as needed, and at the discretion of the Public Works Director; and
WHEREAS, the Administration recommends that the recommendation of the Sustainability and
Resilience Committee, and the proposed plan and budget for Fiscal Year 2019, relating to the
deployment of temporary pumps be approved by the Mayor and City Commission.
NOW,THEREFORE, BE IT DULY RESOLVED BY THE MAYOR AND THE CITY COMMISSION
OF THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, the Mayor and City Commission accept the
recommendation of the Sustainability and Resiliency Committee, at its September 26, 2018 meeting, for
the Administration to: (1) identify a targeted level of service for the deployment of temporary pumps, (2)
develop a Fiscal Year 2019 (FY 2019) budget, and (3) fund the deployment of temporary pumps; and (4)

COMMISSION MEMORANDUM
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission
FROM: Jimmy L. Morales, City Manager
DATE: January 16, 2019
SUBJECT:A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, ACCEPTING THE RECOMMENDATION OF
THE SUSTAINABILITY AND RESILIENCY COMMITTEE AT ITS
SEPTEMBER 26, 2018 MEETING, FOR THE ADMINISTRATION TO: (1)
IDENTIFYA TARGETED LEVEL OF SERVICE FOR THE DEPLOYMENT OF
TEMPORARY PUMPS, (2) DEVELOP A FISCAL YEAR 2019 (FY 2019)
BUDGET AND (3) FIND A FUNDING SOURCE FOR THE DEPLOYMENT OF
TEMPORARY PUMPS; AND (4) RECOMMEND AN IMPLEMENTATION
PROCESS FOR THE DEPLOYMENT OF TEMPORARY PUMPS; WHICH
PLAN, BUDGET, AND FUNDING SOURCE ARE SPECIFICALLY
DELINEATED IN THIS RESOLUTION, AND ACCEPTED BY THE MAYOR
AND CITY COMMISSION.
RECOMMENDATION
The Administration recommends the approval of the resolution accepting the recommendation
of the Sustainability and Resiliency Committee at its September 26, 2018 meeting to identify a
target level of service, come up with a FY 19 budget, find a funding source, and implement a
recommended process for deployment of temporary pumps.
ANALYSIS
To meet the stormwater needs of the City of Miami Beach, the City is investing over $650
million in various infrastructure improvements, which improvements will need to be made over an
estimated span of 10 years. The infrastructure improvements include installing larger pipes,
building pump stations, and raising roads to ensure that the roads do not flood in future tidal and
rainfall events.
During King Tide events, to prevent localized street flooding in areas where the roadway
elevation is lower than the high tide levels, temporary pumps have been installed and the water
has been pumped to the adjacent canal or Biscayne Bay. Typically, pumps have been deployed
in these lower areas, such as along upper North Bay Road, Orchard Park, Indian Creek, Tatum
Waterway, and other North Beach areas.
All temporary pump locations have been permitted through DERM, which deployment
Page 1055 of 1648
incorporates best management practices to protect water quality (including, but not limited to,
cleaning of the stormwater system in the area adjacent to the temporary pumps to remove
potential pollutants).
In Fiscal Year 2018, $325,410 was spent on temporary pumps, not including the cost of fuel
and labor to operate the equipment. Costs associated with the increased use of, and requests
for, temporary pumps will continue to increase as higher tides occur during each King Tide
season. The City's current stormwater rates do not include components for widespread usage
of rental temporary pump installations.
A continued reliance on temporary equipment to alleviate flooding will require a permanent
source of funding, as, until now, the costs have been paid from the stormwater utility's
operations and maintenance fund. The stormwater utility operations and maintenance fund, in its
current design, is unable to continue to fund this temporary pump practice into the future without
neglecting the intended operations and maintenance obligations for the stomiwater system.
A resolution regarding the utilization of temporary pumps and generators was placed on the July
25, 2018 City Commission meeting agenda and the City Commission took up the item. After
several members provided comments with regards to the draft resolution, Commissioner John
Aleman moved to refer the discussion to the Sustainability and Resiliency Committee for further
discussion; the motion was seconded by Commissioner Gongora; and the item passed 6 — 0
(Commissioner Rosen Gonzalez was absent during the vote).
At its September 26th, 2018 meeting, the Sustainability and Resiliency Committee moved to
have the Administration: (1) identify a targeted level of service for temporary pumps; (2)develop
a Fiscal Year 2019 proposed budget for the deployment of temporary pumps; (3) find a
permanent funding source; and (4) implement a recommended process for deployment of the
temporary pumps; and to (5) bring the item back to the City Commission for approval.
Consistent with the direction of the Sustainability and Resilience Committee, the Administration
has determined that the targeted level of service for temporary pumps, during King Tide events,
for previously identified low lying areas not equipped with permanent stormwater pumping
stations, will be to maintain the roads passable for vehicles and pedestrians. This level of
service will require the City to deploy of at least 25 temporary pumps, at an estimated cost of
$270,000.00 (assuming three (3) months of King Tides, in the Spring, and three (3) months of
King Tides, in the Fall), which plan for deployment for temporary pump stations.
Consistent with the direction of the Sustainability and Resiliency Committee, the Administration
has identified $272,000.00 in the Fiscal Year 2019 Stormwater Maintenance and Operations
Fund.
It is expected that the pumps can keep the roadways free of standing water; provided, however,
some additional roadways may experience temporary flooding depending on the magnitude of
the tides and coinciding rainfall events.
The Public Works Department will closely monitor the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA) tidal predictions for our area and implement deployment of temporary
pumps, as needed, and at the discretion of the Public Works Director.
