Pursuant. to Section 2-408(d) of the City of Miami Beach Code, the living wage rate may, by resolution of the City Commission, be indexed annually for inflation using the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers (CPI-U) Miami/Ft. Lauderdale area, issued by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics. According to the City Code, the City Commission may: 1) index the Living Wage rate annually; 2) index the Living Wage rate cumulatively to°catch up"for any prior year(s)where there was/were no increase(s); or 3)may elect to forego any increases if it determines it would not be fiscally sound to do so. At its April 26, 2017 meeting, the City Commission, pursuant to Agenda Item C4-G, approved a referral to the Finance and City-Wide Projects Committee (the "Committee") for a discussion on whether or not to change the current Living Wage hourly rate. The discussion item was originally presented to the Comrrittee at its May 19, 2017, meeting for indexing the living wage rate. At that time, representatives of the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) also presented recommendations to the Committee that it proposes for both the living wage rates and amendments to the language and requirements of the Living Wage Ordinance (the °Ordinance"). Following the discussion of the information presented by both the Administration and SEIU, the Committee deferred the discussion to its June 30, 2017, meeting and requested staff to meet with the representatives of SEIU to determine the fiscal impacts of the different rates proposed and to provide an analysis of the amendments to the City's living wage ordinance proposed by SEIU. At its June 30, 2017, meeting, the Committee considered the information requested,which included the proposed living wage rates,each rate's potential fiscal impact as noted in the table below.

Benefit Rate Fiscal with Minimum without Impact Health Amount Health Benefits Benefits Miami 1 Beach $11.91 $1.73 $13.64 $ 351,622 (single year kk option) Miami Beach 2 (catch up $12.27 $1.79 $14.06 $ 799,140 option) • 3 SEIU $13.00 $3.16 $16.16 $3,036,732 On June 30, 2017, the Committee directed staff to consider any circumstances that may reduce the fiscal impact of the living wage rate options noted above. In carrying out the direction of the Committee,staff considered two scenarios that may reduce the fiscal Impact of any increase: 1. Are any contractor employees at or above any proposed rate and.therefore. not eligible for an Jncrease? In this scenario, only the fiscal impact from reimbursing contractors for those employees that would actually receive'the increase is considered in the Revised Potential Fiscal Impact 2. -1t• Aid_ •l �1 1= �_ e! - - • s- � � •r . • •I - .

On June 30, 2017, the Committee also requested options for staggering the implementation of rate increases to mitigate the impact on any given year.One approach for doing so is a phased-in option over three (3) years. The tables below shows some potential options for phasing in the rate increases for Options 2 and 3. A longer phase-in period (e.g., five years) is also an.option at the Committee's discretion,especially for Option 3.
