Item Summary/Recommendation:
The total operating expenditures to provide the current service level to this district is $188,000 for FY
2012/13. The City of Miami Beach General Fund is required to provide 35% of the total operating
expenditures ($65,800), and the City has funded the 35% for each of the nineteen years since the District
was established. The amount provided by the General Fund for this purpose in FY 2011/12 was $58,406.
The $188,000 in FY 2012/13 represents a $21,125 increase (12.6%) from the FY 2011/12 budget of
$166,875, due to the maintenance of homeowner-requested cameras and security gates, the estimated
impact of the living wage ordinance on the security contract expenses, and Property Management charges
primarily due to personnel cost increases, consistent with personnel cost increases in other funds.

ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the Resolution which establishes the tentative operating budget for the Normandy Shores
Local Government Neighborhood Improvement District for FY 2012/13 in the amount of
$188,000, subject to a second public hearing to be held on Thursday, September 27, 2012.
BACKGROUND
The Normandy Shores Local Government Neighborhood Improvement District (the District), a
dependent taxing district of its principal, the City of Miami Beach, was established in 1994 to
provide continual24-hour security to this gated community; FY 2012/13 represents its nineteenth
year of operation.
The District was established by Ordinance 93-2881, and has the authority "to levy an ad-valorem
tax on real and personal property of up to two mills, provided that no parcel of property will be
assessed more than $500 annually for such improvements". During FY 1998/99 the amount of
annual funding to be provided by the City and the dependent status of the District were issues
discussed by the Finance and Citywide Projects Committee. A determination was reached that
the City would fund 35% of the annual cost of the operation of the community gate guard. This
cost will eventually be funded from the golf course operation of the Normandy Shores Golf
Course. It was further agreed that the City would continue to supplement the District at current
levels until the Golf Course assumes this cost. On August 29, 2002, the Administration met with
the Normandy Shores Local Government Neighborhood Improvement District representatives
and agreed to eliminate the $500 cap on the highest valued home in the District. The enabling
legislation was adopted by the Commission on September 25, 2002. This ensures that the City's
contribution from the General Fund remains at 35% of the operating budget of the District.
PROCEDURE
The operating millage and budget for this dependent special taxing district must be adopted in
accordance with Florida Statutes. This procedure requires that this Resolution be considered
immediately after the tentative millage for Normandy Shores District has been adopted (See
accompanying District Millage Agenda Item for details).

ANALYSIS
The total operating expenditures to provide the current service level to this district is $188,000 for
FY 2012/13. The City of Miami Beach General Fund is required to provide 35% of the total
operating expenditures ($65,800), and the City has funded the 35% for each of the nineteen
years since the District was established. The amount provided by the General Fund for this
purpose in FY 2011/12 was $58,406. The $188,000 in FY 2012/13 represents a $21,125
increase (12.6%)from the FY 2011/12 budget of $166,875, due to maintenance of homeowner-
requested cameras and security gates, the estimated impact of the living wage ordinance on the
security contract expenses, and Property Management charges primarily due to personnel
increases.
To provide the current level of security required by this district, the Administration recommends
the proposed ad valorem millage of 1.1444 mills. This tax levy will generate proceeds of
$122,200. The increase of 0.0509 mills from the prior year millage represents an annual
increase of $14.53 to the City average 2012 homesteaded property of $285,571 taxable value
(estimate based on Ad Valorem Assessment Roll as of January, 2011 ), a total of approximately
$327 per year ($27 per month).
The tentative operating budget for the District is as follows:
Revenues
Ad Valorem Tax $ 122,200
City's General Fund 65,800
Total $ 188,000
Expenses
Security Service $ 164,500
Maintenance 23,500
Total $ 188,000
CONCLUSION
The City Commission, acting in its capacity as the Board of Directors of the Normandy Shores
Local Government Neighborhood Improvement District, should adopt the attached Resolution
which establishes a tentative operating budget and schedules the second and final public
hearing.
