COMMISSION MEMORANDUM
SUBJECT. A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH,
FLORIDA, ACCEPTING THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE FINANCE AND ECONOMIC
RESILIENCY COMMITTEE, MADE AT ITS APRIL 19, 2024 MEETING, TO PRIORITIZE FUNDING
FOR A FULL-TIME PERMANENT BICYCLE -PEDESTRIAN COORDINATOR POSITION IN THE
TRANSPORTATION AND MOBILITY DEPARTMENT AS PART OF THE FISCAL YEAR
2025 BUDGET PROCESS.
RECOMMENDATION
The City Administration ("Administration') recommends that the Mayor and City Commission ("City Commission") adopt the Resolution.
BACKGROUNDIHISTORY
At the February 21, 2024 City Commission meeting, at the request of Vice -Mayor Laura Dominguez and co-sponsor Commissioner Alex
Fernandez, the City Commission referred an item (C4 T) to the Finance and Economic Resiliency Committee ('FERC" or "Committee") to
discuss funding a full-time, permanent bicycle -pedestrian safety position.
During the Fiscal Year ("FY") 2023 Budget development process, the Transportation and Mobility Department ('Department") proposed an
enhancement for a full-time Bicycle -Pedestrian Coordinator position in the amount of $92,784 to provide technical expertise and focus on
advancing pedestrian and bicycle safety projects and initiatives throughout the City. However, the proposed budget enhancement was not
recommended by the Administration due to competing public safety priorities.
On September 12, 2022, the Transportation, Parking and Bicycle -Pedestrian Facilities Committee ("TPBPFC") passed a motion requesting that
the City Commission consider funding a full-time Bicycle -Pedestrian Coordinator position in the Department. The TPBPFC's recommendation
was transmitted via Letter to Commission ("LTC") 377-2022 (Attachment A).
At the September 14, 2022 City Commission meeting, during the first reading of the proposed FY 2023 operating budget, the City Commission
referred the TPBPFC motion to FERC for further discussion.
At the September 30, 2022 FERC meeting, the Committee discussed the recommendation from TPBPFC and passed a motion recommending
a funding allocation in the amount of $100,000 for the Department to hire a consultant to focus on bicycle -pedestrian mobility, safety, and
connectivity projects in lieu of adding a full-time Bicycle -Pedestrian Coordinator position.
At the October 26, 2022 City Commission meeting, the City Commission adopted Resolution No. 2022-32382 (Attachment B), approving the
First Amendment to the General Fund, Enterprise Funds, Internal Service Funds, and Special Revenue Funds Budgets for FY 2023. The
budget amendment appropriated $100,000 in the FY 2023 Special Revenue Budget to the Department as recommended by the FERC on
September 30, 2022.
ANALYSIS
Pursuant to City Commission direction, during FY 2023, the Department engaged Alta Planning & Design, Inc. ("Consultant"), one of the City's
pre -qualified rotational transportation consultants, to provide independent technical reviews and expertise, on an as -needed basis and in an
amount not to exceed $100,000, for miscellaneous bicycle and pedestrian projects and initiatives in the City. The Consultant is currently
providing these services on City projects including the West Avenue Corridor and Chase Avenue/34 Street Shared -Use Path projects.
Examples of current and/or upcoming bicycle -pedestrian projects and initiatives that the Consultant may be engaged to provide independent
technical reviews and expertise on include, but are not limited to:
• Beachwalk Safety Markings
• South Beach Promenade (Espanola Way East/West and 14 Place Tactical Urbanism)
• Dade Boulevard Shared -Use Path
• Alton Road Shared -Use Path
• South Beach Pedestrian Priority Zone
• Meridian Avenue Shared -Use Path
• 22/23 Street Complete Street 885

• Safe Routes to Schools
• 17 Street Corridor Bicycle Lane
• Pine Tree Drive Bicycle Lanes
• 71 Street/Normandy Drive Corridor Pedestrian Safety Audit
• Pedestrianization of 100-300 Lincoln Road
• Bicycle safety campaign
• Scramble (diagonal) crosswalks
• Bicycle/pedestrian data collection
• Neighborhood greenways in various neighborhoods
• Closing existing gaps in the bicycle network
• Miscellaneous requests to enhance pedestrian and bicycle safety and connectivity
It is important to note that in addition to the Consultant, the Department currently utilizes various other pre -qualified consultants available under
the rotational transportation consultant contracts as these consultants also have expertise in bicycle -pedestrian safety and mobility. As such,
the rotational consultants also develop design drawings and provide technical guidance and input from a bicycle -pedestrian safety perspective
primarily for capital projects. Funding for these services is typically included in the respective capital project(s).
However, from an overall staffing perspective, given the existing limited staff resources and robust departmental work plan and expectations
surrounding mobility, consideration should be given to increasing departmental staffing levels.
At the April 19, 2024 FERC meeting, the Committee unanimously approved a motion to prioritize funding for a full-time permanent Bicycle -
Pedestrian Coordinator position in the Department as part of the FY 2025 budget process.

Dear Honorable Mayor and City Commission:
The Transportation, Parking and Bicycle -Pedestrian Facilities Committee
(TPBPFC) held its hybrid meeting on September 12, 2022 and discussed the
importance of public safety of pedestrians and bicyclists. The Committee agrees

Department will help in the delivery of key pending bicycle -pedestrian projects
and initiatives. This position will also address current bicycle -pedestrian safety
and accessibility issues throughout the City.
The TPBPFC passed a motion asking that consideration be placed for the funding
of a Bicycle Pedestrian Coordinator position for the Transportation Department.
As an advisory Committee, we strongly request your consideration on the above
motion.
Sincerely,
Transportation, Parking & Bicycle -Pedestrian Facilities Committee

COMMISSION MEMORANDUM

A RESOLUTION OF THE�*AYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF MIAMI
BEACH, FLORIDA, ADOPTING THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE GENERAL FUND,
ENTERPRISE FUNDS, INTERNAL SERVICE FUNDS, AND SPECIAL REVENUE
FUNDS BUDGETS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2023 AS SET FORTH IN THIS RESOLUTION
AND IN THE ATTACHED EXHIBIT "A."
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the Resolution.
STRATEGIC PLAN SUPPORTED
Organizational Innovation — Ensure strong fiscal stewardship
BACKGROUND
The budgets for the General Fund, Enterprise Funds, Internal Service Funds, and Special
Revenue Funds for Fiscal Year 2023 were adopted by the Mayor and City Commission on
September 28, 2022, through Resolution No. 2022-32334.
HOMELESS TRUST CONTRIBUTION
On September 21, 2022, the City received a request from the Miami -Dade County Homeless
Trust to strategically partner with the Miami -Dade County Homeless Trust. A request for $3 million
was made to scale housing needed to further combat homelessness in the City and beyond.
These funds requested by the Homeless Trust, in conjunction with funding received from Miami -
Dade County and other municipalities, would be utilized by the Homeless Trust to acquire and
renovate no fewer than 4 properties to better support households sleeping on the streets or
staying in temporary emergency shelters without viable permanent housing options.
At the September 30, 2022 Finance and Economic Resiliency Committee (FERC) meeting,
representatives from the Miami -Dade County Homeless Trust presented their request for funding.
After extensive discussion, the FERC recommended that a $1 million be allocated to the
Homeless Trust, comprised of approximately $277,000 in HOME Investment Partnerships
American Rescue Plan Program (HOME -ARP) funding received by the City from the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) that remains unallocated, subject to HUD
approval, and approximately $723,000 from projected FY 2022 year-end General Fund surplus.
894
First Amendment to the FY'2023 General Fund, Enterprise, Internal Service, and Special Revenue Funds Budgets
Page 2
This proposed. amendment appropriates $723,000 in the FY 2023 General Fund budget from
projected FY 2022 year-end General Fund surplus to provide the Homeless Trust with the
recommended allocation from the FERC. The additional $277,000 from the unallocated HOME -
ARP funding previously received by the City from HUD for other eligible projects will be
appropriated in a companion item on today's agenda.
STEAM+ LAB
At the September 14, 2022 City Commission meeting, a request totaling $550,000 that was
received by the City Commission from Miami -Dade County Public Schools (MDCPS) for one-time
funding to establish 2 Steam+ Labs proposed to be located at Miami Beach Senior High School
and Miami Beach Feinberg Fisher K-8 was presented for funding consideration as part of the FY
2023 budget.
At the September 28, 2022 City Commission meeting, Commissioner Fernandez submitted a
memorandum requesting a discussion on additional items to be included for funding in the FY
2023 budget,' including $100,000 for the Nautilus Middle School STEAM Lab and music
instruments requested by the Miami Beach Nautilus Middle School PTSA.
These items were discussed at the September 30, 2022 FERC meeting, and a recommendation
was made to provide funding in the amount of $275,000 to be later allocated as recommended
by the Committee for Quality Education for the STEAM program.
This proposed amendment appropriates $275,000 in the FY 2023 General Fund budget from
projected FY 2022 year-end General Fund surplus to provide additional funding for the STEAM
program to be allocated as recommended by the Committee for Quality Education per the
direction of the FERC on September 30, 2022.
2023 SOUTH BEACH WINE AND FOOD FESTIVAL
At the September 14, 2022 meeting, the City Commission approved a referral to discuss and take
action on a request for financial support from the Food Network South Beach Wine and Food
Festival (SOBEWFF) for the 22nd annual event that is scheduled to take place February 23-26,
2023.
At the September 30, 2022 FERC meeting, the event organizers requested that the City provide
$OBEWFF with financial support in the amount of $125,000 to cover the costs of select City
services including Police, Fire, EMT, permits, meters, etc., as well as a rental waiver for the use
of the Miami Beach Bandshell where the event organizer will be hosting a special event on
Sunday, February 26, 2023. This request was recommended by the FERC for funding
consideration.
This proposed amendment, therefore, appropriates $125,000 in the FY 2023 Resort Tax Fund
budget from projected FY 2022 year-end Resort Tax surplus to provide SOBEWFF with the
financial support requested to offset the rapidly rising costs required to produce the event while
also maintaining needed safety and security measures and keeping ticket prices reasonably
priced to attract visitors from around the globe as recommended by the FERC on September 30,
2022.

BICYCLE PEDESTRIAN COORDINATOR
At the September 14, 2022 meeting, a request from the Transportation and Mobility Department
for a full-time Bicycle Pedestrian Coordinator, position that was not recommended by the City
Administration during the FY 2023 budget development process was presented for funding
consideration in the FY 2023 budget based on a motion from the Transportation, Parking, and
Bicycle -Pedestrian Facilities Committee distributed via a Letter to Commission (LTC# 377-2022)
on September 13, 2022. This request was referred to the FERC for further discussion.
At the September 30, 2022 FERC meeting, this request was discussed extensively, and a
recommendation was made by the FERC to provide funding in the amount of $100,000 for the
Transportation and Mobility Department to hire a contractor/consultant to focus on bicycle -
pedestrian connectivity and mobility projects instead of adding an additional full-time position in
the Transportation 'and Mobility Department.
This proposed amendment appropriates $100,000 in the FY 2023 Transportation Special
Revenue Fund budget from Transportation fund balance to allow the Transportation and Mobility
Department to hire a contractor/consultant to focus on bicycle -pedestrian connectivity and mobility
projects as recommended by the FERC on September 30, 2022.
CONCLUSION
The Administration recommends that the Mayor and City Commission adopt the First Amendment
to the General Fund, Enterprise Fund, Internal Service Fund, and Special Revenue Fund budgets
for FY 2023 described herein and further detailed in the attached Exhibit "A."

COMMITTEE TO DISCUSS FUNDING A FULL-TIME, PERMANENT
BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN SAFETY POSITION.
BACKGROUND/HISTORY
Was this Agenda Item initially requested by a lobbyist which, as defined in Code Sec. 2-481,

ANALYSIS
Please place on the February 21, 2024 agenda a referral to the Finance and Economic
Resiliency Committee to discuss funding a full-time, permanent Bicycle and Pedestrian Safety
position.
During last year's budget cycle, we discussed the need for a dedicated professional in this area,
as there is much we could do as a City to further promote bicycle and pedestrian uses and
safety. At that time, the City decided to allocate funds for contract personnel, as opposed to a
full-time position.
The Committee should consider this funding request as a priority matter, given the importance
of this work for the well-being of our cycling community and pedestrians alike.
