Key Intended Outcome Supported: Increase community satisfaction with City government Enhance the environmental sustainability of the community. Supporting Data (Surveys, Environmental Scan, etc.): NIA Item Summa /Recommendation: OPEN AND CONTINUE According to Section 327.46 of the Florida Statutes, any municipality may create restricted wake zone regulations for the safe operation of motorboats and other vessels in or upon waters of that municipality. Further, Section 327.46, F.S. encourages local governments to establish boating restricted areas where safety and need requires. The Commission reviewed and approved Ordinance 2013-3796, establishing restricted wake zones, on April 17, 2013 (the "Ordinance"). The Ordinance established a mix of zones: two "Idle Speed, No Wake" zones and one "Slow Speed Minimum Wake" zone. The first Idle Speed, No Wake zone was created in the area surrounding the public access boat ramp within the Maurice Gibb Memorial Park, and the second was created surrounding the blind corner presented by the northwest corner of the Sunset Harbor Yacht Club marina. The single Slow Speed, Minimum Wake Zone was created in the waters just west of Sunset Harbor which present a serious safety hazard. The State application process commenced after the approval of the ordinance. As part of the state review process, the Coast Guard (USCG) and the Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission (FFWCC) reviewed the Ordinance. The comments provided by these governmental agencies necessitate minor changes to the approved ordinance. Accordingly, the Ordinance must be revised in order to address the USCG and FWCC comments. The changes are very minor: 1) Adjust the location of markers indicating the slow speed zones. Upon further consideration the USCG believes that the original location of the markers presented a navigational concern. Specifically, the USCG requested that Markers 3, 4, and 5 be moved farther out of the Miami Beach channel. Accordingly, Markers 3 and 4 were moved slightly west, and Marker 5 was moved slightly north so as to be removed from the channel. 2) Reduction of the scope of the slow speed zone. The Slow Speed Zone in the original ordinance encompassed the area west of the Sunset Harbor neighborhood, from the north end of the Sunset Harbor Yacht Club extending south to the Venetian Causeway. The USCG and FFWC requested that instead of extending all the way south to the Venetian Causeway, the Slow Speed zone be reduced so that the Slow Speed zone's boundary is approximately level with the northernmost oint of Belle Isle. The two Idle S eed zones are not modified. Financial Information: Source of Funds: Amount Account Approved 1 I I 2 OBPI Total Financial Impact Summary: The proposed Ordinance should not have a significant fiscal impact upon the City, as this Ordinance would only require installation of "idle speed no wake" (no wake) and "slow speed minimum wake" (slow speed) sians. Considerina that the Marine Patrol station is adiacent to the area there is no increase in enforcement costs.

ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION Open and continue. KEY INTENDED OUTCOME Increase community satisfaction with City government Enhance the environmental sustainability of the community. BACKGROUND According to Section 327.46 of the Florida Statutes, any municipality may create restricted wake zone regulations for the safe operation of motorboats and other vessels in or upon waters of that municipality. Further, Section 327.46, F.S. encourages local governments to establish boating restricted areas where safety and need requires. The Commission reviewed and approved Ordinance 2013-3796, establishing restricted wake zones, on April 17, 2013 (the "Ordinance"). The Ordinance established a mix of zones: two "Idle Speed, No Wake" zones and one "Slow Speed Minimum Wake" zone.

Upon further consideration the USCG believes that the original location of the markers presented a navigational concern. Specifically, the USCG requested that Markers 3, 4, and 5 be moved farther out of the Miami Beach channel. Accordingly, Markers 3 and 4 were moved slightly west, and Marker 5 was moved slightly north so as to be removed from the channel. 2) Reduction of the scope of the slow speed zone. The Slow Speed Zone in the original ordinance encompassed the area west of the Sunset Harbor neighborhood, from the north end of the Sunset Harbor Yacht Club extending south to the Venetian Causeway. The USCG and FFWC requested that instead of extending all the way south to the Venetian Causeway, the Slow Speed zone be reduced so that the Slow Speed zone's boundary is approximately level with the northernmost point of Belle Isle. The two Idle Speed zones are not modified. CONTINUANCE At this time, the FFWC application for approval of the Ordinance is complete. Pursuant to FFWC procedure, the FFWC must now publish notice of the Ordinance and allow for a 21 day comment period. Accordingly, the FFWC attorney suggests that the City's second reading of the Ordinance be postponed until after the FFWC's comment period has elapsed. Continuing second reading of the Ordinance to April ensures that the City has time to address any comments that arise during the FFWC's comment period and incorporate any necessary changes into the Ordinance before second reading. CONCLUSION The Administration recommends that the City Commission open and continue this item.
