SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE EXPENDITURE OF $50,000 TO
FUND A PORTION OF THE FIRST YEAR OPERATION COSTS FOR A
SOUTH BEACH TMA (TRANSPORTATION MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATION)
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Commission approve the attached
Resolution authorizing the expenditure of $50, 000 to fund a portion
of the first year' s operation for a South Beach TMA (Transportation
Management Association) .
BACKGROUND:
For approximately a year, the concept of a Transportation
Management Association (TMA) has been floated in Miami Beach. The
attached documentation shows how effective a TMA can be along with
its benefits .
Miami Beach Development Corporation has been the focal point of
this activity. The State of Florida has agreed to fund $75, 000
toward the first year of operations, while MBDC has obtained
$25, 000 from its membership. The City is requested to fund $50, 000 .
' for the balance of the first year' s operation.
ANALYSIS:
The City had expressed concern that the TMA was too limiting.
After meeting with representatives of Miami Heart Institute, Mt .
Sinai Hospital and the Fontainebleau Hilton, it was determined that
there was significant interest from those three major employers to
be. a part and for the boundaries to be moved north to 48th Street .
The proposal was reviewed and endorsed by the City' s Parking and
Transportation Committee meeting jointly with the Miami Beach
Chamber of Commerce' s Parking and Transportation Committee. The
endorsement was unanimous with the boundary change and the three
employers added to the Board and the condition that the TMA hire a
transportation professional and that a treasurer be appointed
separate from MBDC' s treasurer. The attached By-Laws request these
changes .
CONCLUSION:
•
The City of Miami Beach should commit $50, 000 towards the operation
of the TMA with the understanding that the conditions above will be
observed and that the matching sources would come through.
