Interlocal Agreement to provide the services of off-duty Miami Beach police officers. The City and the
County have renewed the Interlocal Agreement continuously since 1988. The most current Interlocal
Agreement expired on September 30,2003. The Homeowner's Association, the County and the City wish to
renew the Agreement. The renewal process has taken longer than expected and as such, retroactive
approval is necessary as of October 1, 2003. The Police Department has continued to provide off-duty
police officers during this period and the residents have had no interruption of services.
The new Interlocal Agreement continues the services as currently provided for the period of October 1 , 2003
