BACKGROUND/HISTORY
On November 26, 2018, the City entered into an Agreement with First Class Parking, LLC to
provide valet parking services at the Fillmore, the Jackie Gleason Theater of Performing Arts,
Miami Beach Convention Center (MBCC), and other City -owned properties pursuant to RFP
2018-166-WG. The Agreement had an initial term of one (1) year, with four (4) one-year renewal
options at the City Manager's discretion.
On November 1, 2019, Amendment No. 1 approving the first one-year renewal term beginning
November 1, 2019, through October 31, 2020, was executed. On March 27, 2020, the City
declared a state of emergency due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, the City and First
Class Parking mutually agreed to temporarily suspend services. On September 25, 2020, the
City and First Class Parking executed Amendment No. 2 to the Agreement, temporarily
decreasing the Concession Fees and replacing them with a monthly Concession Fee equal to
twelve percent (12 %) of the total monthly Gross Receipts until (MBCC) bookings resumed and
reached pre -pandemic levels.
On April 6, 2021, the parties executed Amendment No. 3 to the Agreement extending the
modified financial terms approved under Amendment No. 2 for the Temporary Services Period
through and including September 30, 2021.

The final renewal term between the City and First Class Parking, LLC was exercised and
scheduled to expire on September 30, 2022. On June 9, 2022, the City extended the
Agreement on a month -to -month basis, pending the award of a new agreement.

2022-043-WG for Valet Parking Concession. The Procurement Department issued bid notices
to 3035 companies utilizing the City's e-procurement system, with 32 prospective bidders
accessing the solicitation. RFP responses were due and received on October 31, 2022. The
City received the sole proposal from First Class Parking, LLC.
On January 13, 2023, the Evaluation Committee appointed by the City Manager convened to

CONCLUSION
After reviewing the submission, I concur with the Evaluation Committee and find First Class
Parking, LLC, the sole proposer, to be qualified to provide the operation of valet parking
services at The Fillmore Miami Beach at the Jackie Gleason 'Theater, the Miami Beach
Convention Center, and other City -owned properties in connection with scheduled events.
First Class Parking, LLC, is a small local business that has worked with the City for
approximately 15 years. In customer surveys, First Class Parking has consistently achieved
high satisfaction ratings. Furthermore, First Class has proven its ability to provide valet service
to high and low valet demand events. First Class has unsurpassed experience as the valet
vendor for the City and has adjusted to many operational changes due to construction at the
MBCC while continuously meeting contractual requirements.
Lastly, the firm's familiarity with the City's existing venues is beneficial in implementing a new
agreement and minimizing any challenges typical of a change in contractor.

For the reasons stated herein, I recommend that the Mayor and City Commission approve the
Resolution authorizing the Administration to enter into negotiations with First Class Parking, LLC
as the sole proposer; and, further, authorizing the City Manager and City Clerk to execute an
Agreement upon successful negotiations by the Administration.
