TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission

SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, AMENDING CHAPTER 90 OF THE CITY
CODE OF THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, BY AMENDING ARTICLE IV,
ENTITLED "PRIVATE WASTE CONTRACTORS," BYAMENDING DIVISION

SEVERABILITY; CODIFICATION; AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE, WITH SUCH
RAISE TO BECOME EFFECTIVE ON OCTOBER 5, 2019.
RECOMMENDATION
The Administration recommends approving the Ordinance on Second Reading Public Hearing.
ANALYSIS
Chapter 90 of the City Code, titled "Solid Waste", at Section 90-278 provides the roll off
container permit fee, which is presently 18 percent (18%) of the solid waste contractor's total of
monthly gross
receipts.
The item was presented at the September 26, 2018 City Commission meeting but was
withdrawn by the Administration during the discussion at the Public Hearing.
At the July 26, 2019 Finance and Citywide Projects Committee meeting, the Committee
recommended increasing the rolloff fee from 18 percent (18%) to 20 percent (20%), and to
proceed to bringing the item to the next full City Commission for approval.
Historically, the rolloff permit fees have been the same fee as the franchise fee charged to solid
waste contractors, and the proposed fee increase will affect those that provide roll off service to
commercial and residential accounts. This fee has not been raised in over 10 years. The
additional revenue collected of approximately $21,000 will assist the City in offsetting the
Sanitation Division's operational deficit within the enterprise fund.
At the September 11, 2019 City Commission meeting, the City Clerk read the title into the
Page 143 of 540
record. A motion was made, seconded, and passed to move forward with a Second Reading
Public Hearing scheduled for September 25, 2019.
CONCLUSION
The Administration recommends approving the Ordinance on Second Reading Public Hearing.

COMMITTEE MEMORANDUM
TO: Members of the Finance & Citywide Projects Committee
FROM: Jimmy L. Morales, City Manager
DATE: July 26, 2019
SUBJECT: ZERO BASED BUDGET (ZBB) EXERCISE FOR SANITATION
BACKGROUND
During last year's budget process, the Administration presented to the Commission a series of
potential rate increases (residential fee adjustment, recycling fee pass-through and a franchise
fee increase on monthly gross receipts) to address the existing $855,000 structural imbalance in
the Sanitation Fund. The City Commission requested that the Administration perform a zero-
based budget (ZBB) exercise for the Sanitation Division to identify multiple expenditure and
revenue options to close the imbalance.
ZERO BASED BUDGET
Zero-based budgeting (ZBB) is a budgeting process that asks managers to build a budget from
the ground up, starting at zero. The Administration first started with defining the Sanitation
Division through the program budget: What do we do? Who do we do it for? Where do we do
it? After the core programs have been identified, the determination of the costs which includes
full time equivalent (FTE) and level of service (LOS). Revenues were matched with their
corresponding expenditures producing the ZBB document.
The City of Miami Beach Public Works Department Sanitation Division employs 178 FTE to
manage the following core programs:
• Residential Collection of Solid Waste
• Commercial Solid Waste (Franchise Waste Haulers)
• Debris Removal and Litter Control
• Street Sweeping
• Code enforcement/Illegal dumping/violations
• Recycling
• Roll-Offs
• Administrative functions that oversee these core programs
CORE PROGRAMS
Residential Collection of Solid Waste
The Public Works Sanitation Division manages the solid waste collection and disposal programs
for residents and the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Miami-Dade County for
Page 168 of 540
Zero Based Budget - Sanitation
July 26, 2019
Page 2
curbside recycling. The City has contracted the residential trash services which currently
provide for three (3) trucks to service the single-family homes with backyard service twice per
week. It also provides for bulky waste curbside collection. The MOU with the County provides
for the residential collection and processing of recycled materials. The contract cost, recycling
fee, and city service fee appear on the monthly residential bill.
Commercial Solid Waste (Franchise Waste Haulers)
The City currently has two (2) contractors under a franchise agreement that provide waste
services to commercial properties and multi-family homes greater than 8 units. In addition, these
haulers collect trash/recycling from City owned facilities, empty trash cans and recycling
containers along streets and parks citywide, support some special events, fund hazardous
waste events, pay various sums to the City including 18% for the franchise fee, 1.5% for
implementation of sustainable initiatives, $400,000 to address illegal dumping, $25,000 to
support environmental programs, etc. Every commercial enterprise or multi-family unit can
choose which entity to enter into a contract with and at what terms/costs. The 18% franchise
fee totaled $4.3 million as revenue collected in FY 18/19.
Code Enforcement/Illegal Dumping/Violations
This core program includes four (4) Code officers and two (2) heavy equipment operators with
two (2) municipal workers involved in policing properties/individuals that choose to not properly
dispose of refuse, also referred to as illegal dumping. Truck mounted cranes are used to assist
Code officers with violations and picking up dumped materials. The debris collected from illegal
dumping is transported and disposed of at the Miami Dade County landfill. If the Code officer
can make a clear determination that the items were discarded from a specific address, an Illegal
Dumping Fee is assessed to that individual or entity which helps defray the cost associated with
the program. However, the Code officers cannot always make a clear determination of where
the illegally dumped material has come from.
Debris Removal and Litter Control (Hand Crews)
This core program consists of litter control and debris removal from sidewalks and streets with
crews consisting of five (5) to nine (9) employees on a five (5) or seven (7) day per
week schedule. Personnel use brooms, pick-sticks, shovels, rakes and leaf blowers to
accomplish the requirements of tasks. Crews report as early as 5:00 AM and the last daily shift
ends at 10:30 PM, except during special events. Throughout the City, during these time, crews
are constantly picking up litter, cigarettes butts, removing and changing garbage and recycling
bags on street corners, collecting pond fronds and other organic debris from their designated
areas. In addition, crews blow and sweep the swales, walkways, and storm drains as well as
pressure washing mold, mildew, gum, dirt, organic and fecal matter from walkways, garages,
and beach shower locations. The Sanitation Division provides this LOS to remain in compliance
with the Cleanliness Index. The Public Area Cleanliness Index ratings range from i (Very
Clean) to 6 (Very Dirty) and include assessments of litter/garbage cans, organic matter (leaves,
branches, etc.) and fecal matter. The target goal is 1.5, however, the Sanitation Division
averages below that goal in some areas currently.

Street Sweeping
Street sweeping and hand crews are one of the most visible aspects of the Sanitation Division
for residents and the traveling public. Clean streets and gutters not only give the City an overall
clean appearance, but aids in helping reduce traffic accidents and air pollution caused by fine
dust particles; reduces health hazards related to dust and insures trash doesn't become a
refuge for insects and rodents; prevents the accumulation of debris in catch basins and
drainage ditches and reduces the amount of sedimentation discharged into waterways,
particularly Biscayne Bay. The Sanitation Division's heavy equipment operators Sweeping
Team is responsible for sweeping over 150 miles of roadway.
Administrative Functions that Oversee Core Programs
The administrative group provides ongoing oversight, coordination, policy and planning of all
division functions, including administrative tasks, payroll, procurement, human resources,
financial and budgetary support. This group consists of 6.5 FTE which includes the Sanitation
Division Director, the Sanitation Division Assistant Director, other administrative staff, and a
portion of the Public Works Assistant Director.
Roll-offs
Companies that want to provide roll-off service within the City limits must first obtain a Business
Tax Receipt as stipulated under Chapter 90 of the Solid Waste code section 90-192. Roll-off
companies cannot place a container within our City's limits without obtaining a valid permit as
specified in Chapter 90-276 Permit Required.
The licensed hauler must submit the permit application to the Sanitation Division and the
Sanitation Division administrative staff reviews the permit prior to entering it In EnerGov and
scheduling an inspection. Once Code Compliance receives their inspection list, Code assigns
the permit to a Code Compliance Officer (CCO) who inspects the location for placement. At this
point, the permit will be either approved or denied. Once approved, Sanitation Admin staff
issues the permit and sends it to the requestor.
Under Section 90-278 of the code Fees and requirements; penalties for non-payment, the roll-
off company must pay to the City 18% of the contractors' total monthly gross receipts for the
month in which the permit was issued and every month thereafter that the permit is valid.
NON-CORE PROGRAMS
The City of Miami Beach also participates and funds additional programs throughout the City
that promotes a higher quality of life for the residents. The Non-Core Programs are as follows:
• Pressure Washing
• Redevelopment Agency (RDA)
• Parking Lots and Garages
• Beach Maintenance
• Doggie Bags
• Can on every corner
• Big Belly
• Special Events
• Clean Water Way
• Cat Network
• H.O.P.E. Day Labor
Page 172 of 540
Zero Based Budget - Sanitation
July 26, 2019
Page 6
Pressure Washing
Pressure washing is conducted primarily in the entertainment area and beach showers. In the
entertainment area garages are pressure washed to remove dirt, grime, gum, and organic
matter and smells; in addition, sidewalks throughout the area are also pressure washed as well
as exterior and interior litter cans that are placed on each corner. Parking lots are also pressure
washed on request just as pressure washers respond to code violations for such things as
garbage truck leaks. Lastly, pressure washers are always on stand-bye for special events such
as Memorial Day, Spring Break, and Independence Day.
Redevelopment Agency (RDA)
In the RDA we have 38.55 FTE dedicated to all the streets, sidewalks, alleys, Beachwalk and
beach showers; these FTE conduct litter control and pressure washing for each of those
surfaces. In addition, Litter can service is conducted for cans on street corners as well as street
sweeping with street sweepers, and doggie dispensers are maintained on the Beachwalk and
Lincoln Rd. RDA employees also service the area during special events such as Halloween.

Parking Lots and Garages
The Parking Fund pays the Sanitation Fund for the following services:
• Replace litter cans when requested
• Pressure Washing for garage facilities
• Surface lot litter control
• Illegal dumping removal
• Pressure washing when requested for surface lots.
Page 173 of 540
Zero Based Budget - Sanitation
July 26, 2019
Page 7
Beach Maintenance
Employees are augmented with Miami-Dade County personnel and conduct litter control of the
beach area from the water to the serpentine wall.
Doggie Bags
A pilot program was initiated within the City's right of way to expand the dispensers that had
been installed within parks. Currently a three (3) member crew refills, maintains, and installs
approximately 95 dispensers ranging throughout the city from 79th St to South Pointe Drive
during the hours of 6:30 AM — 3 PM five days per week.
Can on Every Corner
This is an effort for the City to place a garbage can on every corner; currently there are
approximately 1800 cans placed at this time. This program has completed its objective. Trash
receptacles being purchased to replace damaged or weathered cans that are beyond their
service life.
Big Belly
Bigbelly solar trash compactors have been installed on Washington Avenue. Following a pilot
program, the revised agreement was executed on October 30, 2017. This agreement
supersedes the prior or then existing agreement. The term of the agreement commences with
the "acceptance date" of February 5, 2018. The contract initial term will expire three (3) years
from the acceptance date. Should the City terminate the agreement for convenience (section
4.4) prior to the completion of the current term, the remaining Monthly Service Fee for the entire
term would need to be paid in addition to a removal fee not to exceed $500 per station.
Therefore, any termination of the program prior to the end of the term will not necessarily
become a reduction of the year in which it is terminated. There are additional expenses such as
repairs, insurance, and taxes that are incurred yearly that would be eliminated with the
termination of the agreement.
Special Events
This is overtime attributed to special events in the city such as Memorial Day Weekend, Art
Basel, New Year's, Art Deco, Spring Break, Halloween, Orange Bowl, Independence Day, and
many other events.
Clean Water Way
This program is simply $186K funded through professional services to the Environmental &
Sustainability Department to assist with the cleaning of citywide canals and waterways. The
city's contractor conducts cleaning operations citywide three times a week. This includes
removal of floatable litter and large marine debris such as shopping carts.
Cat Network
Sanitation is one of a few programs that contribute to the spay and neuter program of cats
through the city. The Sanitation Division's role is to Transport a veterinarian through the City 6
times per year collecting 17.5 hours each time.
H.O.P.E. Day Labor
$44k funded through professional services to Jewish Community Services Self Sufficiency
Program for the homeless. This group conducts litter/debris control in the Flamingo area
neighborhood 23 days per month.

Cleanliness Assessors
These are part time employees that are dispatched throughout the City and are measuring the
levels of cleanliness from streets, sidewalks, garages, to beach showers. Their findings are
reported to the Organizational Development Department and they are tallied into the
Cleanliness Index which is released quarterly.
BUDGET STRATEGIES
As part of the zero-based budget exercise, the Administration has identified multiple expenditure
and revenue options for the Commission to consider in order to help address the existing
$855,000 structural imbalance in the Sanitation Fund.
Expense Reductions Currently Being Implemented
To close the funding gap between revenues and expenditures, many options have been
considered to reduce the current expenditures, specifically measures that will reduce FTE.
Code Compliance/Illegal Dumping/Violations
Illegal dumping is generated by properties and/or individuals that choose to not properly dispose
of trash. There are four (4) Code Compliance officers and 2 HEO's and 2 MSW II (two crane
crews total) assigned to this effort. The crane crews assist Code Compliance with violations
and special pickups. Sanitation impact fees assessed on all building, electrical, plumbing,
mechanical and demolition permits from the Building Department are used to help offset illegally
dumped debris in streets and alleyways. Code Compliance directs the daily tasks for four (4)
officers that are paid for from Sanitation. A reduction of two of the Code Compliance officers
has been implemented. Should this redirection have an impact on city-wide cleanliness such as
illegal dumping and overflowing dumpsters then reconsideration may be warranted.
Doggie Bag Dispenser
There are two (2) 3 employee crews that are responsible for refilling these dispensers. The
North Fly Squad are responsible for the dispensers in the following areas: N Bay Rd & Pine tree
Dr; 63rd St & Alton Rd, 64th St & Collins Ave; 76th St & Harding Ave;' Abbott Ave & Indian
Creek; & Dickens Ave & Tatum Waterway. The South Fly Squad are responsible for the
dispensers located in the following areas: West Ave from 9th St to Lincoln Rd on both sides of
the street; Collins Ave & 28th St; Meridian Ave on 39th & 42nd St; Prairie Av' on 28th St & 33rd
St.; S Pt Dr/ Nikki Bch; Hibiscus Island; 6th St & Jefferson Community Ctr; &The Filmorel4th St
& Bay Rd.
Implementing An Alternate Side Parking Program To Facilitate Cleaning Streets
Hand Sweeping crews consist of 5 to 9 employees on a 5/7 day/week schedule with a mobile
sweeper. These crews provide litter control, sweeping and raking activities in their respective
areas along streets and sidewalks. Manual leaf blowers, brooms pick-sticks, and shovels are
also used in concert with mobile street sweepers blow trash and vegetated debris from under
stationary objects such a vehicle.
The Sanitation Division is proposing a restricted parking pilot in the Flamingo and North Beach
areas. Once per week in prescribed areas that have heavy vegetation issues or high foot traffic
from 0900 — 1200 Noon, residents must not park along defined streets to allow the Sanitation
crews time to give these areas a deep through cleaning. With these areas being free of
stationary objects, all debris will be removed faster and more efficiently requiring less manual

effort. The pilot anticipates a two (2) FTE reduction which could result in a net of$80,000 with
the estimated reduction in labor cost. A City-wide reduction would result in an anticipated of up
to five (5) FTE totaling $228,000.

Additional Efficiencies or Potential Expense Reductions
In addition to measures currently being implemented, other areas are being examined such as
contracting additional services that are currently being provided as well as reducing the level of
service in specific areas such as collecting household trash once per week. The following
options have been explored and appear to merit further consideration:
Residential Backyard Service
The City of Coral Gables and the Village of Key Biscayne provide a similar LOS as That
provided to the City of Miami Beach single family residents. In comparison the City of Coral
Gables charges an annual fee of $750 and the Village of Key Biscayne charges $645 as
compared to the City of Miami Beach a current annual fee of $543.96. While this is lower, other
nearby residents without such a premier service, pay less in annual fees as noted in the chart
below:

North Miami $357 Curbside
Bay Harbor Island S273 60 Curbside
With the potential savings of 15 to 20 percent, It may be worth exploring this possibility although
an actual cost savings cannot be determined until a formal procurement process is performed.
As standards within the current contract are demanding, the actual savings may be more in the
ten percent range.
One Day per Week Residential Collection
Another possible cost reduction consideration is reducing trash collection to one day per week.
It appears that the City of Orlando and Orange County in Florida have successfully implemented
a one day a week collection of residential trash since 2017. Estimates of saving could range
between 35% 40% which is approximately $1.4 million
Potential Revenue Enhancements
In addition to exploring cost savings and expense reduction measures, there are a few options
to raise the revenues currently collected which have been discussed in the past:
Passing Through The Recycling Fee
The Sanitation Division pays $3.62 for recycling under the Memorandum of Understanding to
Interlocal Agreement between Miami-Dae County (County) and City of Miami Beach (City) for
Inclusion in the Miami-Dade County Curbside Recycling Program (the Program) executed
January 28, 2009. Under Section VI: Payments paragraph three states the following:
"During the first fiscal year (between October 1, 2008 and September 30, 2009) of this Interlocal
Agreement and annually thereafter through the final year of the Agreement, the unit prices paid
by the Municipality to the County for the services to be provided will be adjusted by the percent
change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI), All Urban Consumers, South Urban, All items,
annual average during the previous Service Year, not to exceed three percent (3%) based on
the change in such Index from October 1 through September 30 of the previous year. The
source of the consumer price indices applied in the annual adjustment to the Collection
Payment shall be the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Each adjustment shall be in effect for the
following 12-month period. The Amount paid per Household shall be extended to all Households
served based on the Household counts provided by the County in accordance with provisions of
this Agreement."
Page 177 of 540
Zero Based Budget - Sanitation
July 26, 2019
Page 11
Since 2008 when the County began collecting single stream recycling, the City has absorbed
these costs with no increase in price to residents during these tough economic times. Miami-
Dade County increased the recycling fee for the fiscal year 2019 from $3.52 per month per
household to $3.73 per month effective October 1, 2018 based on a CIP of 2.71%.
The recycling fee could be broken out and passed onto the end user as well as any annual fee
adjustments which are typically based upon the April CPI for Miami/Fort Lauderdale/West Palm
Beach. If this were to become effective under the current rate structure, the result would be is a
rate increase of $3.73 per month per household for single family and multi-family residences
which translates to $231,000 in additional revenue.
Raising The Franchise Fees
The City Commission adopted Ordinance No. 90-2742 providing for Non-Exclusive Waste
Contractor Franchise Agreements on October 1, 2003. Chapter 90 of the Miami Beach City
Code, Section 90-221 provides for regulations, fees and procedures, and specifies that the City
has the option of raising the franchise fee once yearly, said raises not to exceed two percent
(2%). The last increase to the franchise fees per Resolution 2007-26658 increased the franchise
fee from 16% to 18% effective October 1, 2007.
Any fee increases that affects solid waste franchisees that provide service to commercial
accounts and multi-family units gets passed through to the end user via individual contract
increases by the hauler. Increasing the franchise fee from eighteen (18%) percent to twenty
(20%) percent will generate additional revenue in the sanitation budget of approximately
$83,000.
Multiple municipalities were contacted regarding their franchise fee rates. The municipalities that
responded are listed below. This increase keeps the City of Miami Beach fees at or below other
municipalities as shown in the comparison fee chart provided:
Municipalities Percentage
Hialeah 25%
Coral Gables 22%
North Miami 20%
North Miami Beach 20%
'Miami Beach 20%(Proposed)
The current franchise contract expires September 30, 2019. While the franchise fee is currently
18 percent, the additional sums that are paid to the City as discussed previously push the actual
percentage of gross revenues paid to the City at a higher rate. All such costs get passed on the
end users so any increase should be carefully scrutinized.
Raising The Roll Off Fee
The City Commission adopted Ordinance No. 2008-3616 on September 17, 2008 amending the
on-street and off-street permit fee for roll-off waste containers serviced by licensed contractors
from 16% to 18% of the licensee's total monthly gross receipts. Currently the roll-off
contractor's monthly gross receipts are approximately $515,740. This equates to $92,833 per
month that the City is collecting on their monthly gross receipts.
Historically, the on-street and off-street permit fees for roll-off waste containers has been the
same fee as the franchise fee charged to solid waste contractors. The fee increase will affect

Zero Based Budget - Sanitation

Page 12
solid waste licensees that provide roll-off service to commercial and residential accounts. This
fee has not been increased in 10 years. The additional revenue collected would be
approximately $21,000.
Increasing Residential Solid Waste Fee
The City of Miami Beach is currently well below the current average of other local municipalities
when it comes to residential solid waste fee. The following chart indicates 2 other local cities
that have the same level of service that the City of Miami Beach has:
MUNICIPALITIES ANNUAL FEE POINT OF SERVICE
Coral Gables $892 Backyard
Village Key Biscayne $645 Backyard
Miami Beach $543.96 Backyard
Increasing the rate by 9.4% to $595 annual would increase revenue by $300,000 and we would
still be well below the average of the local area.
CONCLUSION
The list below summarizes the various expenditure and revenue options identified by
Administration as part of the zero-based budget exercise. The Commission will consider these
options, as well as any others that may come out of this process, to address the $855,000
structural imbalance in the Sanitation Fund as part of the FY 2020 budget process.
Revenue Enhancements Reductions/Efficiencies
Increase in Residential Fees E 300,000 1-Day Per Week Service (900,000)
1
Recycling Fee Pass Through 231,000 Elimination Of Backyard Services (500,000)
Increase In Franchise Fees 83,000 Alternate Side Parking (Citywide) (228,000)
Pilot($92,000)
Increase in Roll Off's 21,000 Reduction in Litter/Debris Removal Crew (138,000)
Total $635,000 Elimination of Two Code Officers (113,000)
Reduction in Doggie Bag Crew (43,000)
Total $(1,922,000)
The Administration's recommendations for the FY 2020 budget process are highlighted above,
and total $857,000. This amount would address the $855,000 structural imbalance in the
Sanitation Fund.

R5 B AN ORDINANCE OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH,
FLORIDA, ACCEPTING THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE FINANCE AND CITYWIDE
PROJECTS COMMITTEE AT ITS JULY 27, 2018 MEETING; AND AMENDING CHAPTER 90,
OF THE CITY CODE, "SOLID WASTE," DIVISION 4, "SPECIALTY CONTRACTORS," AT
SECTION 90-278, "FEES AND REQUIREMENTS; PENALTIES FOR NON-PAYMENT," TO
INCREASE THE ROLLOFF FEE FROM 18 TO 20 PERCENT; AND PROVIDING FOR
CODIFICATION, SEVERABILITY, AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
5:06 p.m. Second Reading Public Hearing
Public Works
Commissioner Ricky Arriola
ACTION: Ordinance not adopted. Title of the Ordinance read into the record. Public Hearing
held. Item withdrawn.
Jay Fink, Assistant Director, Public Works, explained that this item is in trying to plug a budget
shortfall by raising permit fees for the roll-off container for single-family homes from 18% to 20%,
which has not been raised in 10 years. This increase is a total revenue enhancement of
approximately $20,000 for the year.
Raul J. Aguila, City Attorney, added that these items were recommended by the Finance and
Citywide Projects Committee.
Public hearing opened and closed.
Commissioner Rosen Gonzalez does not agree with increasing fees. She explained that the City
already requires a building permit for a roll-on container that no other municipality requires and
the homeowner must go through Zoning and Planning to get permission along with the numerous
inspections. To her it is already a hardship to begin with, and to increase the fee overall, is not
fair. Everyone complains that it is hard to do business in the City. She added that for small
homeowners who want to put a container outside it would be an additional tax and she is opposed
to that. It is already expensive to do this work with all licenses requested, and she thinks they are
nickel and diming people.
Discussion held regarding the increase.
Mr. Fink clarified that it is a pass-through fixed fee unchanged for ten years. The fee the resident
would pay is dictated by whoever is providing the dumpster and what their rates are.
Commissioner Gongora clarified that the entire budgetary impact for the year over everyone that
does this is $20,000. Mr. Fink answered in the affirmative.
Mayor Gelber is not opposed to this but wonders why there is so much discussion over $20,000.
Discussion continued.
City Manager Morales explained that the reason of the solid waste has been brought forward, is
that the solid waste enterprise fund used to receive a great deal of the South of Fifth monies, and
now that is nonexistent. When they discussed the pass through of recycling, which is now off the
Agenda, they talked about the need to come back in the next budget cycle to find right funding
source for that, which may be Resort Taxes and other funding, but they looked to try to defray
costs by having two or three solid waste sanitation related items. He agrees that $20,000 is not a

big number, and if is uncomfortable for the City Commission, they can find that amount. They
understand that.
Mr. Fink added that this is a companion to Item R7 F Franchise Fee Increase for Waste.
Discussion continued.
City Manager Morales withdrew R5 B and R7 F.
Commissioner Aleman added that for an item of this nature, if someone has issues with it, it
should be brought up at the Budget Workshops, where they discuss these matters at length.
However, it should not wait after numerous Budget Workshops and numerous Finance and
Citywide Project Committee meetings; to bring it up to the dais seems very political.
Item withdrawn.

Public Works
Commissioner Ricky Arriola
ACTION: Ordinance 2018-4215 adopted. Title of the Ordinance read into the record. Public
Hearing held. Motion made by Commissioner Aleman to approve the Ordinance; seconded by
Commissioner Arriola; Ballot vote: 7-0. Roy Coley to handle.
Jay Fink, Assistant Director, Public Works, explained that this is something offered to fill the gap.
This fee was last increased in 2012. These are fees associated with elevators and it is estimated
to generate an increase of $240,000 in the next fiscal year. The increase is 20% for the table of
various fees. For example, the fee for a single building or condominium building, which currently
pays $75 for the Certificate, would be increased to $90. This equates to an increase of $55 per
elevator.
Commissioner Arriola stated that the financial impact is $240,000.
CFO Woodruff clarified that it is $240,000 in the General Fund, not the Sanitation Fund.
Mayor Gelber opened and closed the Public Hearing.
Motion made and seconded. Vote taken.
