COMMISSION MEMORANDUM
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission
FROM: Eric Carpenter, City Manager
DATE: September 30, 2025 5:02 p.m. Second Reading Public Hearing
TITLE: A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE NORMANDY SHORES
LOCAL GOVERNMENT NEIGHBORHOOD IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT ADOPTING
THE FINAL OPERATING BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026.
RECOMMENDATION
The Administration recommends that the Mayor and City Commission, acting in its capacity as
the Board of Directors of the Normandy Shores Local Government Neighborhood Improvement
District ("District"), adopt the attached Resolution which establishes the final operating budget for
the District for Fiscal Year (FY) 2026 in the amount of$343,000.
The first public hearing to adopt the District's tentative operating millage rate and budget for FY
2026 was held on Wednesday, September 17, 2025. The operating budget reflected herein is that
which was tentatively adopted at the first public hearing.
BACKGROUND/HISTORY
The Normandy Shores Local Government Neighborhood Improvement District, which is a
dependent taxing district of its principal taxing authority, the City of Miami Beach, was established
in 1994 to provide continuous twenty-four (24) hour security to this gated community. FY 2026
represents its thirty-second (32�d) year of operation.
The Normandy Shores Local Government Neighborhood Improvement District was officially
established by Ordinance No. 93-2881 with the authority "to levy an ad-valorem tax on real and
personal property of up to two (2) mills, provided that no parcel of property will be assessed more
than $500 annually for such improvements."
On September 23, 1998, Resolution No. 98-22902 adopted the Normandy Shores Local
Government Neighborhood Improvement DistricYs FY 1999 budget. The accompanying
memorandum noted that a determination was reached that the City would fund 35% of the annual
cost of the community guard gate. It also stated that this cost would eventually be funded by the
Normandy Shores Golf Course, the City Attorney's Office would review the issue of the dependent
status of the Normandy Shores Local Government Neighborhood Improvement District, and the
City would continue supplementing the budget at current levels until both issues were resolved.
On September 25, 2002, Ordinance No. 2002-3380 adopted the removal of the $500 annual cap
per parcel. The accompanying memorandum noted that the City's 35% contribution would be
maintained.
In 2015, as part of a "clean up" Ordinance to repeal three other safe neighborhood districts that
were no longer active, the Mayor and City Commission adopted Ordinance No. 2015-3928. With
respect to the Normandy Shores Local Government Neighborhood Improvement District, because
the prior versions of the Ordinance had not been codified, the 2015 Ordinance sought to codify
189 of 425
the legislation that had been previously adopted. However, in so doing, the legislation codified
the original 1993 Ordinance that included an ad valorem cap of$500 per property instead of the
updated 2002 Ordinance that had removed the cap of$500 per property.
In order to correct the inadvertent error in the 2015 Ordinance and eliminate the$500 per property
cap, as intended since 2002, the Mayor and City Commission adopted Ordinance No. 2020-4386
on December 9, 2020.
On July 28, 2021, the City Commission, based on the recommendation of the Finance and
Economic Resiliency Committee at its July 31, 2021 meeting, adopted Resolution No. 2021-
31819 eliminating the City's 35% subsidy, while continuing to fund 50% of the total cost of the
security rover for the District and Normandy Shores Golf Course.
Since then, the annual budget for the Normandy Shores Local Government Neighborhood
Improvement District has been fully funded through a dedicated ad valorem tax levied on
properties within the Normandy Shores Local Government Neighborhood Improvement District to
provide continuous 24-hour security to this gated community with the City continuing to fund 50%
of the total cost of the security rover shared between the Normandy Shores Local Government
Neighborhood Improvement District and the Normandy Shores Golf Course.
PROCEDURE
The operating millage rate and budget for this dependent taxing district must be adopted in
accordance with Florida Statutes. This procedure requires that this Resolution be considered
immediately after the final millage rate for the District has been adopted (see accompanying
Normandy Shores Local Government Neighborhood Improvement District Millage agenda item
for details).
ANALYSIS
The Normandy Shores Local Government Neighborhood Improvement District budget for FY
2026, as summarized below and further detailed in Attachment A, is $343,000. The FY 2026
budget reflects an overall increase of $7,000, or 2.1%, from the adopted FY 2025 budget of
$336,000. The overall increase is primarily attributed to increased costs for contracted security
guard services based on anticipated service hours and hourly rates.
. • � i �;
Contracted Security Guard Services for Guardhouse and 50%of Rover $253,000
Security Gate and Guardhouse Maintenance/Repairs 40,200
Set-aside for Renewal and Replacement of Capital Assets 20,000
City of Miami Beach Internal Service Charges and Admi:�istrative Fees 19,000
Guardhouse Utilities(Electricity,Telephone,etc.) 6,100
��,�.•��;
Guardhouse Janitorial Services 4,500
Other Miscellaneous Operating Expenditures � 200
Total $343,000
To provide the level of services requested by the District for FY 2026, an ad valorem millage rate
of 0.7305 mills is necessary for FY 2026. This levy will generate property tax revenues of
$358,911, which will be budgeted at approximately 95.0%, or $340,965 (rounded to $341,000),
to account for early payment discounts, delinquencies, etc. The millage rate for FY 2026,
combined with $2,000 in projected interest income, will fund the FY 2026 budget for the District.
190 of 425
On September 17, 2025, the Mayor and City Commission tentatively adopted the operating
millage rate of 0.7305 mills and operating budget of$343,000 for the District for FY 2026.
