L.T.C. No. 198-1999
LETTER TO COMMISSION
October 6, 1999
TO: The Honorable Mayor Neisen O. Kasdin
and Members of the City, Commission
FROM: Sergio Rodriguez
City Manager
SUBJECT: STATUS OF ADDITIONAL SWIM LANES FOR FLAMINGO POOL
This is in response to the direction given by the City Commission at the September 17, 1999
meeting, concerning the above referenced subject. Specifically, the City Commission directed the
Administration to take the following actions:
. Review the current proposal for Flamingo Park pool to include an additional four swim
lanes.
. Include the cost of this enhancement, approximately $400,000, in the proposed General
Obligation Bond to be presented to the voting residents on November 2, 1999.
. Submit a proposal to the Miami-Dade County Safe Neighborhood Parks Bond Program
requesting an additional $400,000 for the Flamingo Park pool project and develop a third
alternative to finance the cost of the swimming pool expansion.
. Suggested that in the interim time period, the planning and design process for the additional
four lanes be started.
. Proceed with the Normandy Isle Park pool as originally presented.
In response to these directives, the Administration has initiated the following actions:
. Suspended all work on this park bond project until possible alternatives for funding sources
are explored.
. Included the additional $400,000 in the proposed General Obligation Bond to be presented
to the voting residents on November 2, 1999.
. Submitted a request to the Safe Neighborhood Parks Oversight Committee on September 12,
1999 (see attached copy). The Oversight Committee met on September 27, 1999 to discuss
the distribution of approximately $3.75 million available in current and future interest
earnings. Included in this discussion was the City's Flamingo Pool request. In addition to
the City's request for $400,000 for the Flamingo Pool, there were requests from Miami-Dade
County presented by County Manager Merrett Stierheim, seeking $3 million for the purchase
of the Miami Circle, the City of Miami seeking $235,000 per year for a three (3) year period
to hire additional professional staff to assist in the implementation of their Safe
Neighborhood Park Bond funded programs, as well as a request from Shake-A-Leg sailing
program for the Disabled asking for $300,000 to complete the construction of their facility
located in the City of Miami's Virrick Gym.
Kevin Smith presented the City's request, explained the need for the additional lanes, as
expressed by citizens of Miami Beach, and showed the Oversight Committee full color
renderings of the Flamingo Pool and another depicting the additional four (4) lanes.
Additionally, Mr. Peter Luria, a resident and swimmer at the Flamingo Pool addressed the
Committee expressing the need for the additional four (4) lanes and the interest of the
community to see this addition take place. When considering the City of Miami Beach's
request, the Chairman stated that the City of Miami Beach had a valid need but also has
resources, so if the Committee supported funding the City, it should be for $200,000 as a
challenge to the City Commission to match the award with the remaining $200,000 needed
to construct the four (4) additional lanes.
Following the presentations, the Oversight Committee deliberated briefly and voted to award
Miami-Dade County $3 million for the Miami Circle and the City of Miami $235,000 to hire
staff for a one year period. The Committee also stated the continuation for year two of the
funding was contingent upon Miami's performance in the first year.
After allocating $3,235,000 of the estimated $3,750,000 available, the Committee
Chairman made a statement that although the Shake-A-Leg and City of Miami Beach projects
were worthwhile, it is very important that the Oversight Committee keep in mind the need
to be fair and equitable to all potential organizations that might also wish to submit an
application for additional funding and to ensure the Committee's process and creditability
is maintained, the remaining two requests should be deferred until a notice is sent out to the
over sixty (60) eligible organizations and municipalities advising them of the available
funding. The Committee voted to support this action.
Accordingly, the Safe Neighborhood Parks Program office will be mailing notices of the
grant application process to all potential applicants on October 8, 1999. The applications
will be due on November 15, 1999, and the allocations deliberations held at the Safe
Neighborhood Parks Oversight Committee meeting of December 6, 1999. It is currently
estimated that there will be a maximum of $750,000 available to fund all the requests for
support. The City of Miami Beach will submit an application seeking $400,000 for the
additional lanes.
. The Administration met with representatives of the swimmers group who initiated the
request for additional lanes on October 1, 1999. Input for expanding the pool and modifying
the plan to better meet the needs of both competitive and recreational swimmers was the
focus of the discussion. A consensus was reached that if funding is available, an additional
four (4) lanes would be added and will include starter blocks and backstroke flags. It was
also agreed upon that the inclusion of a water cooling system would be studied. It was
clearly understood that no architectural design work will be done until such time as funds are
identified for the additions and a final direction is determined.
. The Normandy Isle Pool project is progressing as planned and the bids will be issued upon
the completion of the permitting process.
. If the additional funds are not identified via the General Obligation Bond or the Safe
Neighborhood Parks Bond Program by December 6, 1999, the Administration will bring this
item back to the City Commission for further discussion and direction.
We will keep you apprised of progress in this matter and should you have questions or concerns,
please advise.

Hank Adorno, Esq.
Chairman
Safe Neighborhood Parks Bond Oversight Committee
III NW 1 st Street, Suite #1740
Miami, FL 33128-1974
Dear Mr. Adorno:
The City of Miami Beach was initially awarded $1 Million dollars from the Safe Neighborhoods
Park Bond for pool renovations at various City facilities. The City then requested that the entire $1
Mil be allocated to the Flamingo Pool Facility in order to simplify the accounting process, with the
understanding that the other pools would be done with funds from our City's own $15 Mil Parks
General Obligation Bond.
As of August 12, 1999, the new multi-use recreational pool for Flamingo Park is 100% designed and
the project is ready to be bid. In completing this process, the City has received additional input from
the community, requesting that four additional swimming lanes be added to the current pool design.
The Administration requested that the architect for the project (Corradino) provide new cost
estimates, incorporating the request of the citizens. (Please see attached cost estimates.) This
additional work will cost approximately $400,000.
In order to construct the pool facility now being requested by the citizens of Miami Beach, it is
formally requested that the Safe Neighborhoods Parks Bond Oversight Board allocate an additional
amount of $400,000 to complete this project. To date, the City has only received $100,000 in
interest dollars for playground equipment at several parks. It is requested that you please bring this
matter to the Board's attention at the September 14, 1999 meeting. Please excuse me for not
personally presenting this matter to the Board, but unfortunately, I have a conflict due to the fact that
our City Commission meeting is scheduled for the same day. At the request of the Mayor and
Members of the City Commission, a discussion item related to this issue has been scheduled at this
September 14th meeting.
Thank you in advance for your attention to this important matter. We look forward to a positive
response from the Board. .
Sincerely,
gio Rodriguez
City Manager
