AN ORDINANCE LAMENDING MIAMI BEACH CITY CODE CHAPTER 20,
BUSINESS LICENSES, PROVIDING FOR AN INCREASE IN THE LICENSE
FEES FOR BEACHFRONT CONCESSION OPERATIONS (SECOND READING)
Pursuant to City Commission Resolution No. 82-17152, the City
Commission approved a Beachfront Concession Plan under which the
following kinds of activities would be authorized on the Beachfront:
1. Food and beverage service
2. Beach equipment (e.g. lour.~es and cabanas)
3. Water recreational activities
Subsequently, the City established a new category of occupational
licenses for Beachfront concession operations, pursuant to Ordinance
No. 83-2353, effective January 15, 1983. This ordinance established
the fee per activity per location at $365.00, which fee has remained
in effect since that time.
Costs associated with administration of the Beachfront concession
plan and the licensing mechanism have continued to increase as the
number of concessionaires has increased, justifying an increase in
the license fee. Increases in occupational license fees, pursuant
to 205.043 (1) (b) Florida Statutes, may be increased no more than
25% at any one time.
Accordingly, an increase of 25% to the existing license fee will
result in an adjustment of the fee from $365.00 to $456.25.
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION
The City Administration recommends that the City Commission approve
the attached ordinance amending the Miami Beach City Code to provide
for an increase in the occupational license fee for Beachfront
Concession Operations from $365.00 to $456.25.
