COMMISSION MEMORANDUM NO. J:!-O l-Ci ~/
TO:
Mayor Neisen O. Kasdin and
Members of the City Co ission
,
DATE: June 17, 1998
FROM:
Sergio Rodriguez
City Manager
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, AUTHORIZING THE
ADMINISTRATION TO ISSUE A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL FOR VALET
.." PARKING SERVICES AT THE JACKIE GLEASON THEATER OF THE
PERFORMING ARTS, MIAMI BEACH CONVENTION CENTER, AND
OTHER CITY PROPERTY, AS REQUIRED.
CLERK'S NOTE: THIS MEMORANDUM DOES NOT REFLECT THE DECISION OF THE CITY COMMISSION.
ADMINISTRA TION RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the Resolution.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Miami Beach currently has a Concession Agreement with Gold Star Parking, Inc. for
valet parking services at the Jackie Gleason Theater of the Performing Arts, Miami Beach
Convention Center, and other City Property, as may be required. Gold Star Parking, Inc. has
provided this service since 1986. On October 1, 1986, a Concession Agreement was awarded to
Gold Star Parking, Inc. for two (2) years, with a one (1) year renewal option. On October I, 1988,
the City renewed the Concession Agreement for the one (1) year renewal period. In 1989, a Request
for Proposal was issued in order to continue providing said services. Gold Star Parking, Inc. was
the successful proposer and they were awarded a five (5) year Valet Parking Concession Agreement
with five (5) one-year renewals at the City's option. To date, the City has renewed four of the five
one-year options. The current agreement will expire on September 14, 1998.
ANAL YSIS:
The City wishes to continue providing parking services in the form of valet parking at the
aforementioned venues. It is the Administration's goal to increase the level of service for valet
parking users at the Jackie Gleason Theater of the Performing Arts, Miami Beach Convention
Center, and other City property. A competitive selection process and a new concession agreement
would enable the City to place stricter requirements on the concessionaire.

K- Ie-
~-I/-~~
These stricter requirements would include a code of conduct and a dishonesty bond for the
concessionaire's employees. Additionally, the City's financial return could be enhanced if
competitively bid, as opposed to administratively renewed. The issuance of a request for proposals
does not preclude the existing service provider from submitting a proposal. In fact, it will provide
the City an opportunity to review and select the best possible valet parking service and financial
return.
If approved, the attached RFP No.66-97/02, will be issued effective June 18, 1998. A timetable is
set forth on page three (3) of the attached RFP. The City Commission may then make a
determination for the selection of a valet parking service, at the July 15, 1998, City Commission
meeting. The contract would then be negotiated and awarded on the September 9, 1998 City
Commission Meeting.
CONCLUSION
The Administration believes that the tighter controls and an improved financial return to the City can
best be achieved by competitively bidding the contract. The present contractor will have an
opportunio/ to bid as w.ell. The Administration believes that it is truly in the best interest of the City
to open this contract to competitive bidding.
