R5F-Amend Ch 66 No Wake Zone In Miami Beach Marina -Levine-COMMISSION ITEM SUMMARY
lntended Outcome
Item Summa
SECOND READING - PUBLIC HEARING
The proposed Ordinance would amend Section 66-43 of the City Code to establish a no wake zone in that
area of Meloy Channel between the Miami Beach Marina and the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) Causeway
lsland. lf this Ordinance is adopted, the City would establish a no wake zone within a 500 foot radius of the
launching and landing facility on the western boundary of the Miami Beach Marina (Area A on Attachment
B, Appendix 2). Per Section 327.46(b)(1Xa), Fla. Stat., the City has the authority to establish a no wake
zone by ordinance if the area is within 500 feet of any launching or landing facility available for use by the
general boating public on watenvays more than 300 feet in width.
Due to regulatory restrictions and the width of the channel, an area approximately 260 feet wide on the
western edge of the channel sits outside the City's authority to establish a no wake zone. As such, this
Ordinance further amends Chapter 66-43 of the City Code to extend the no wake zone across the Meloy
Channel under Section 327.46(c)(1), Fla. Stat., which provides for the creation of an idle speed, no wake
zone with FWC approval if the area is within 300 feet of a confluence of water bodies presenting a blind
corner (Area B on Attachment B, Appendix 2). There are two blind corners at the Meloy Channel resulting
from the intervening obstruction of USCG Causeway lsland: one at the intersection of the Meloy Channel
with Government Cut and another at the intersection of the Meloy Channel with Biscayne Bay.
Simultaneous with the consideration of this Ordinance, the City is filing an application with FWC for the
approval of Area B due to the safety concerns posed by these blind spots. The City will not be installing
"idle speed no wake" signs until FWC approves Area B. Per Florida Statutes, the City is required to consult
with Miami-Dade County, the USCG and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in the development of all
boating restricted areas. At this time, the City has begun coordination with all three agencies.
The waters just west of the Miami Beach Marina present a serious safety hazard. The Miami Beach Marina
is a public facility that sees heavy boat traffic entering and exiting the Meloy Channel. At the same time,
boats and jet skis coming from Government Cut pass quickly through the channel, sometimes at alarming
speeds. Additionally, large wakes can result in damage to the City's landing facility and to the vessels that
dock thereon. A no wake zone in this area would considerably reduce the threats to safety and quality of life
posed by boats passing quickly through the channel and those reducing or picking up their speed to enter
or exit the Miami Beach Marina. The Miami Beach Marina has provided a letter of support for this initiative.
On July 8, 2015, the City Commission passed this Ordinance on first reading. The Administration
recommends that the City Commission adopt the proposed No Wake Zone Ordinance on Second Readino.

Financial lmpact Summary: The proposed Ordinance should not have a significant fiscal impact upon
the City, as it will only require installation of "idle speed no wake" (no wake) signs. Additionally, this area is
already under the jurisdiction and supervision of Marine Patrol so there is no increase in enforcement
costs.

ADMINISTRATION RECOMMEN DATION
The Administration recommends that the City Commission adopt the proposed No Wake Zone
Ordinance on Second Reading.
BACKGROUND
On July 8,2015, the City Commission passed this Ordinance on first reading.
The proposed Ordinance would provide regulations for the safe operation of motorboats and other
vessels in or upon waters within the jurisdiction of the City of Miami Beach. The City has the
authority to create such an ordinance based on Section 327.46, Florida Statutes (Fla. Stat.)
(Attachment A). Section 327.46, Fla. Stat. authorizes local governments to establish boating
restricted areas where needed. The statute provides specific requirements on where and forwhat
purposes boating restricted areas can be established. The statute identifies zones that can be
established with state review and zones that can be established without state review. The Florida
Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) is the agency responsible for conducting the
aforementioned state review.
PROPOSED ORDINANCE
The proposed Ordinance would amend Section 66-43 of the City Code to establish a no wake zone

in that portion of Meloy Channel between the Miami Beach Marina and the U.S. Coast Guard
(USCG) Causeway Island. lf this Ordinance is adopted, the City would establish a no wake zone
within a 500 foot radius of the launching and landing facility on the western boundary of the Miami
Beach Marina (Area A on Appendix 2 of the Ordinance). Per Section327.46(bX1)(a), Fla. Stat., the
City has the authority to establish a no wake zone by ordinance if the area is within 500 feet of any
launching or landing facility available for use by the general boating public on watenrrrays more than
300 feet in width.
Due to regulatory restrictions and the width of the channel, an area approximately 260 feet wide on
the western edge of the channel sits outside the City's sole authorityto establish a no wake zone. As
such, this Ordinance further amends Chapter 66-43 of the City Code to extend the no wake zone
across the Meloy Channel under Section 327 .a6@)(1), Fla. Stat., which provides for the creation of
an idle speed, no wake boating-restricted area with FWC approval if the area is within 300 feet of a
confluence of water bodies presenting a blind corner (Area B on Appendix 2 of the Ordinance).
There are two blind corners in this area of the Meloy Channel resulting from the intervening
obstruction of USCG Causeway lsland: one at the intersection of the Meloy Channel with
Government Cut and another at the intersection of the Meloy Channel with Biscayne Bay adjacent to
the MacArthur Causeway (Attachment B). Simultaneous with the consideration of this Ordinance,
the City is filing an application with FWC for the approval of Area B due to the safety concerns
posed by these blind spots. Specifically, when Area A becomes a no wake zone, boat traffic seeking
higher speeds is anticipated to reroute under the bridge outside the channel, closer to USCG
Causeway lsland, and create potentially hazardous conditions for boaters, as well as the USCG
which docks, services, and launches vessels from their eastern seawall. The City will not be
installing "idle speed no wake" signs until FWC approves Area B. Per Florida Statutes, the City is
required to consult with the Miami-Dade County, USCG and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in
the development of all boating restricted areas. At this time, the City has initiated consultation with
allthree agencies.
The waters just west of the Miami Beach Marina present a serious safety hazard. The Miami Beach
Marina is a public facility that sees heavy boat traffic entering and exiting the Meloy Channel. At the
same time, boats and jet skis coming from Government Cut pass quickly through the channel,
sometimes at alarming speeds. Additionally, large wakes can result in damage to the City's landing
facility and to the vessels that dock thereon. A no wake zone in this area would considerably reduce
the threats to safety and quality of life posed by boats passing quickly through the channel and
those reducing or picking up their speed to enter or exit the Miami Beach Marina. The Miami Beach
Marina has provided a letter of support for this initiative (Attachment C).
FISCAL IMPACT
ln accordance with Charter Section 5.02, which requires that the "City of Miami Beach shall consider
the long term economic impact (at least 5 years)of proposed legislative actions," this shall confirm
that the City Administration evaluated the long term economic impact (at least 5 years) of this
proposed legislative action. The proposed Ordinance should not have a significant fiscal impact
upon the City, as it will only require installation of "idle speed no wake" (no wake) signs. Additionally,
this area is already under the jurisdiction and supervision of Marine Patrol so there is no increase in
enforcement costs.

RE: Meloy Channel ldle Speed, No Wake Zone Letter of Support
Dear Mayor Levine,
The Miami Beach Marina supports the City of Miami Beach's proposed amendment
to Chapter 66 of the City Code to establish a no wake zone in the Meloy Channel.
The Miami Beach Marina sees heavy boat traffic entering and exiting the Meloy
Channel. At the same time, boats and jet skis coming from Government Cut pass
quickly through the channel, sometimes at alarming speeds. Additionally, large
wakes can result in damage to the marina and the vessels stored here. A no wake
zone in this area would considerably reduce the threats to safety posed by boat
traffic in the channel and minimize the potential for damage to property at the
marina.
