TO:
Mayor Seymour Gelber and

DATE:
June 21, 1995
FROM: Jose Garcia-Pedrosa

SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF E MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF MIAMI BEACH, LORIDA, AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR AND CITY
CLERK TO EXECUTE A MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT WITH THE STATE
OF FLORIDA, DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY AFFAIRS, FOR THE
HURRICANE ANDREW RECOVERY AND REBUILDING TRUST FUND, AND
DESIGNATING HARRY S. MAVROGENES, ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER,
AS THE CITY DESIGNATED AGENT TO EXECUTE REQUESTS FOR
ADVANCES, NECESSARY CERTIFICATIONS AND OTHER SUPPLEMENTAL
DOCUMENTS IN ORDER TO RECEIVE REIMBURSEMENT FOR
RECOGNIZED HURRICANE RELATED EXPENDITURES.
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached
Resolution authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the
attached Memorandum of Agreement, DCA agreement No. 95EO-3M-23-02-
077, Hurricane Andrew Recovery and Rebuilding Trust Fund, with the
State of Florida, Department of Community Affairs and designating
Harry S. Mavrogenes, Assistant City Manager, as the City'S
designated agent to execute requests for advances, necessary

BACKGROUND:
The City of Miami Beach, through the Department of Development,
Design & Historic Preservation Services, has been responsible for
coordination of FEMA reimbursement for Hurricane Andrew damages
incurred to City property. The City has been reimbursed, to date,
from Federal FEMA funds a net amount of $5,147,968. Another
$266,916 is retained by the State of Florida until close out of the

program. The City's claimed total expenditures add up to
$5,871,040 to date.
Shortly after the hurricane, the State of Florida set up a
Hurricane Andrew Recovery and Rebuilding Trust Fund to help cover
expenditures of local governments for which FEMA reimbursement was
not possible due to certain FEMA regulations. The City of Miami
Beach identified $424,215 in expenditures of which $62,333
represents the cost to resurface damaged roads; $141,709 to extract
the visible and hazardous steel groins, once an interlocal
agreement between the City and Dade County is executed; $88,826 to
replace pipe hangers along the Venetian Causeway; $52,030 to
rebuild lifeguard stands; $3,200 for repairs done to the 14th
Street rest-room; $14,191 for expenditures incurred for hurricane
related items; $49,200 for the repairing of Old City Hall and
$14,726 for administrative expenses.
Through diligent efforts of State Representative Elaine Bloom, the
City's funding request was authorized by the State legislature in
the 1993 session. The State of Florida has been very slow to
release this funding, and has required extensive documentation and
justification. Upon execution of this grant agreement, the State
will send the City a $99,000 advance, and then will reimburse the
balance on a quarterly basis.
The Resolution also requests that Assistant City Manager, Harry S.
Mavrogenes, be designated as the signatory agent to expedite the
reimbursement documentation. Mr. Mavrogenes has been designated
the signatory for the FEMA funds and this action would be
consistent with that previous action.
ANALYSIS
It should be made clear that were it not for the extraordinary
efforts of Representative Elaine Bloom on behalf of the City, this
funding in the amount of $424,215 would not have been received.
The receipt of this money, in addition to the $5,414,884 already
received and in retainage will bring the City'S authorized
reimbursements to $5,839,099, to date, compared to our claimed
expenditures of $5,871,040, to date, a recovery rate of 99%.

COMMISSION MEMO
June 21, 1995
The City is still pursuing claims for minor work not yet completed,
but it is anticipated that the program will be closed out by the
fall of this year.
CONCLUSION
The Commission should adopt the attached Resolution in order to
claim this additional funding, and should recognize Representative
Elaine Bloom for her work on our behalf.
