A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE

SUBJECT:
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the Resolution.
ANAI,YSIS
The City of Miami Beach has experienced parking shortages during major events such as NFL
Weekend 1999, the Boat Show, Graphics of the Americas and the Auto Show. There are multiple
events scheduled on Miami Beach in celebration of the Millennium, and the Administration has
determined that there may be a severe parking shortage for the Millennium Weekend of December
29, 2000 through January 2, 2001. The City of Miami Beach implemented this action last year and
found it to be very successful in assisting the parking public. The City has recieved five (5) special
events permits requests for the eve of December 31,2000 (see attachment).
During some weekends throughout the year, severe parking shortages lead to mobility problems and,
ultimately gridlock on our City's roadway system. The creation of additional parking opportunities
for visitors to the City during high impact events, coupled with an enhanced Electrowave circulator
program, will alleviate the mobility problems and gridlock anticipated during the multi-event
weekend of the Millennium. The Administration has developed a list oflots that could be available
for use during the Millennium Weekend to alleviate the severe parking shortage if the need arises
Citywide. This list is provided as an attachment to this Commission Memorandum.

CONCLUSION
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Commission authorize the Administration to declare an
emergency parking situation, if needed, for the Millennium Weekend of December 29, 2000 through
January 2,2001; and authorize the use of vacant surface lots Citywide to be utilized for valet parking
and self-parking. The Administration further requests that the Mayor and City Commission
authorize the Manager to require all parking operators to secure the appropriate insurance and
Occupational Licenses required by City Code to operate self-parking and/or valet parking operations
on these vacant surface lots.
