SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE NORMANDY
SHORES LOCAL GOVERNMENT NEIGHBORHOOD IMPROVEMENT
DISTRICT ADOPTING THE FINAL OPERATING BUDGET FOR FISCAL
YEAR 2004/05.
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the Resolution which establishes the final operating budget for the District for Fiscal
Year (FY) 2004/05.
BACKGROUND
The Normandy Shores Local Government Neighborhood Improvement District, a
dependent taxing district of its principal, the City of Miami Beach, was established in 1994
to provide continual 24-hour security to this gated community; FY 2004/05 represents its
eleventh year of operation.
It 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". However, 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.
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 guard gate. This cost will eventually be
funded from the golf course operation of the Normandy Shores Golf Course. The City
Attorney's Office is reviewing the issue regarding the dependent status of the District. It
was further agreed that the City would continue to supplement the District at current levels
until both issues were resolved.

A meeting was held on July 21, 2004 between the Normandy Shores Local Government
Neighborhood Improvement Committee and the Administration to discuss additional needs
of the neighborhood. The Committee unanimously approved an increase to the budget of
$9,863 to pay for additional security cameras and a small contingency. This additional
amount will be paid by establishing the millage at the current rate 0 f 1 .123 which will
generate revenues of $92,301. At the July 28, 2004 Commission meeting, the Mayor and
Commission adopted Resolution 2004-25633, which set the proposed operating millage rate
for the District at 1 .123 mills.
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 final millage for Normandy Shores District has been
adopted (See accompanying Agenda Item R7B 1 for details).
ANALYSIS
On September 9,2004, the Mayor and City Commission tentatively adopted the operating
budget for the District in the amount of $136,663 and an operating millage of 1.123 mills.
This millage includes 1.003 mills to provide the current service level of security required by
this district in the amount of $126,800. This is comparable to the current year end
projections. The remaining 0.120 mills will pay for additional security cameras and a small
contingency at a cost of $9,863. Revenues of $92,301 which will be generated from ad-
valorem tax proceeds will be supplemented by a contribution from the General Fund in the
amount of $44,362 or 35% of the operating budget ($126,800) for the current service levels.
The General Fund has funded this difference for each of the ten years since the District was
established. The amount provided by the General Fund for this purpose in FY 2003/04 was
$44,042.
The final operating budget for the District is as follows:
Revenues FY 04/05 FY 03/04
Ad Valorem Tax $ 92,301 $ 81,758
City's General Fund 44,362 44,042
Total $136,663 $125,800
Expenses
Security Service $107,200 $107,200
Add'l cameras & contingency 9,863 0
Maintenance 19.600 18.600
Total $136.663 $125.800
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 the final operating budget.
