NBCRA MEMORANDUM
TO: Chairperson and Board of Directors of the North Beach Community Redevelopment
Agency
FROM: Eric Carpenter, Executive Director
DATE: September 30, 2025
TITLE: A RESOLUTION OF THE CHAIRPERSON AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE
NORTH BEACH COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY, ADOPTING THE
FINAL OPERATING BUDGET FOR THE NORTH BEACH COMMUNITY
REDEVELOPMENT AREA FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026. JOINT CITY COMMISSION
AND NORTH BEACH COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
RECOMMENDATION
The Administration recommends that the Chairperson and Board of Directors of the North Beach
Community Redevelopment Agency adopt the attached Resolution, which adopts the final budget
for the North Beach Community Redevelopment Area for Fiscal Year (FY) 2026.
BACKGROUND/HISTORY
On July 17, 2019, the Miami Beach City Commission adopted Resolution No. 2019-30892,
accepting a preliminary report concerning a finding of necessity for the redevelopment of a certain
area of North Beach, and requesting that Miami-Dade County delegate redevelopment powers to
the City. On July 8, 2020, the Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners ("BCC")
approved Resolution No. R-619-20, delegating authority to the City to create the North Beach
Community Redevelopment Agency (North Beach CRA), including direction to draft the North
Beach CRA Redevelopment Plan and negotiate an Interlocal Agreement among the City, North
Beach CRA, and Miami-Dade County to govern the redevelopment process.
Pursuant to the county's delegation of authority, the City undertook a significant public
engagement effort to prepare the Redevelopment Plan. Simultaneous with the City's preparation
of the Redevelopment Plan, in order to delineate their respective areas of responsibility with
respect to the redevelopment of the Redevelopment Area, the City, North Beach CRA and Miami-
Dade County negotiated an interlocal cooperation agreement (the "Interlocal AgreemenY').
On February 10, 2021, by adopting Resolution No. 2021-31596, the Mayor and City Commission
officially created the North Beach CRA pursuant to Section 163.357, Florida Statutes, and
declared the Mayor and City Commission to be the governing body of the North Beach CRA (the
"North Beach CRA Board").
On May 12, 2021, pursuant to Resolution No. 003-2021, the Chairperson and Members of the
North Beach CRA Board adopted the Redevelopment Plan and transmitted the Plan to the City
Commission for approval, as required by Section 163.360(5), Florida Statutes. Additionally,
pursuant to Resolution No. 004-2021, the Chairperson and Board Members approved the
Interlocal Agreement, authorized the Chairperson and Secretary to execute the Interlocal
Agreement and further, authorized the transmittal of the executed Interlocal Agreement to the
BCC for its consideration and approval.
384 of 425
Likewise, on May 12, 2021, pursuant to Resolution No. 2021-31709, the Mayor and City
Commission approved the Redevelopment Plan for the North Beach CRA and authorized its
transmittal to Miami-Dade County. Contemporaneously, pursuant to Resolution No. 2021-31710,
the Mayor and City Commission approved the Interlocal Agreement, authorized the Mayor and
City Clerk to execute the Interlocal Agreement, and further, authorized the City Manager to
transmit the executed Interlocal Agreement to the BCC for its consideration and approval.
On July 20, 2021, the BCC approved Ordinance No. 21-70 establishing the North Beach CRA
Trust Fund and Resolution No. R-696-21 approving the Redevelopment Plan and the final,
negotiated Interlocal Agreement, as amended. On July 28, 2021, the North Beach CRA Board
adopted Resolution No. 005-2021 accepting the Interlocal Agreement. The City Commission also
approved the Interlocal Agreement via Resolution No. 2021-31817.
Pursuant to Section 189.016(3), Florida Statutes, the governing body of special districts such as
the North Beach CRA, must adopt a budget resolution each fiscal year. As noted in Section
163.387, Florida Statutes, money in the Trust Fund may be expended for undertakings of the
North Beach CRA as described in the Redevelopment Plan pursuant to an annual budget adopted
by the North Beach CRA Board) and only for the purposes specified by Statute.
ANALYSIS
NORTH BEACH REDEVELOPMENT AREA
Revenues
Based on the 2025 Certified Taxable Values that were provided by the Miami-Dade County
Property Appraiser on July 1, 2025, property values within the North Beach Community
Redevelopment Area were approximately $1.9 billion, which represents an increase of $68.9
million, or 3.7%, over the 2024 Certified Taxable Values of approximately $1.8 billion. For FY
2026, the City's portion of the tax increment revenue totals approximately $1.7 million, and the
County's portion of the tax increment revenue totals approximately $1.4 million. The City has,
however, received correspondence from Miami-Dade County advising of the finalization of the tax
roll for the prior year, which in the case of 2023, reflects a decrease from the preliminary valuation
for the same year and will result in a corresponding adjustmenUreduction of tax increment
revenues totaling a combined $0.1 million for FY 2026.
Expenditures
Enhanced City services expenditures for FY 2026 account for$654,000, which include $290,000
for community policing initiatives, $182,000 for enhanced Code Compliance to continue to provide
enhanced levels of staffing and services throughout the North Beach Community Redevelopment
Area, and $182,000 to promote additional community cleanliness and beautification.
The budget also includes $301,000 for a Commercial Fa�ade Improvement Program to improve
area aesthetics and promote business attraction and retention, as well as a Residential Property
Improvement Program to promote the maintenance of naturally occurring affordable housing
stock and promote resiliency, $297,000 for small business development, and $242,000 for Arts &
Culture related tourism, branding, and marketing.
Administrative expenditures account for $118,000, which include annual financial audit services,
a contribution to the City for administrative expenditures based on a completed cost allocation
study, and a satellite office within the North Beach Community Redevelopment Area, of which the
lease and maintenance costs are shared with the City of Miami Beach Building Department on a
prorated basis.
Other expenditures include $20,000 for the County's administration fee, which is equivalent to
1.5% of the County's respective FY 2026 tax increment financing (TIF) payment; a $363,000 set-
385 of 425
aside for workforce and affordable housing that represents 12% of the combined TIF revenues
for FY 2026 and exceeds the 10% minimum requirement; and a $1.1 million set-aside for future
projects.
