Palm and Hibiscus Islands. That same year, the City of Miami Beach (referred to as the City)

2006. The Police Department has continued to provide off-duty Police Officers during this
period and the residents have had no interruption of services.
The new Interlocal Agreement continues the services as currently provided for the period of
October 1, 2006 to September 30, 2009, with the option to renew for a three (3) year term.
The Agreement provides that the City will staff the Palm and Hibiscus Island station with off-
duty Police Officers on a 24-hour a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year basis. The
