SUBJECT: ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: The Administration recommends that the Mayor and City Commission approve in principle the City of Miami Beach Parking Implementation Master Plan. BACKGROUND: The 1995 Lockheed Study identified several operational areas in the Parking Department that needed improvement in order to serve the residents, businesses and visitors of Miami Beach better. With the completion of the Lockheed Study, it was determined by the Administration that a Master Implementation Plan was required to provide the framework within which both short- and long-term decisions relative to parking could be made. ANALYSIS: The Administration entered into a contract with Kimley-Hom and Associates to aid in the development of this plan. This firm was chosen because of that firm's previous involvement in the Lockheed Study and in order to provide the needed continuity to arrive efficiently at recommendations that could be the basis for the Master Implementation Plan for Parking. As part of the process, an assessment of service level improvements, policy and procedure enhancements, and staffing additions accomplished since the completion of the original study was made. A "Report Card" of recommendations versus completed actions was developed and presented to the Administration and the Transportation and Parking Committee at the April 20, 1996 retreat. Continued AGENDA ITEM R 7 E DATE 7- 3-1' Page II July 3, 1996 At the retreat, the results of this analysis and priorities for remaining work to be completed leading to the final development of the Master Plan were discussed by all participants. The draft plan was then reviewed by the Administration, members of the Transportation and Parking Committee, and the staff of the Parking Department at the May 20, 1996 Transportation and Parking Committee Meeting. . The Transportation and Parking Committee unanimously accepted the Plan (sent to City Commission under separate cover), including the priorities and time line changes recommended by the Parking Department. See attached memo dated May 29, 1996 from Ms. Jackie Gonzalez, co- chair of the Transportation and Parking Committee. A workshop to brief Miami Beach residents and other interested parties was scheduled by the Parking Department for June 26, 1996. The results of the workshop will be reported at the July 3, 1996, City Commission Meeting. CONCLUSION: The Administration recommends that the Mayor and City Commission approve in principle the City of Miami Beach Parking Implementation Master Plan. f:\cmgr\$alI\Connn-mem.96\pimp.pkg
