*These am ounts incl ude revenue from Park m ob ile Tra nsaction s.
M eter Revenue: Meter revenue is composed of both single space and multi space meters on the
streets and in lots as well as multi space meters located inside the City Hall and 42" Street Garages.
Meter revenue variances are driven by many variables which include, but are not limited to, road
and sidewalk construction, closed streets and site of events held in the City. Also, the proliferations of
Transportation Network Entities (TNE) such as Uber and Lyft have impacted parking demand
cityw ide. Unfortunately, TNE impact is difficult, if not impossible to quantify due to it being
proprietary data. When compared to the prior year, the decrease in revenue was due to citywide
response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Historical O n -Street M eter Curb sid e Utilization: The meter hourly rate increase in Oct 2015
has adjusted parking habits by directing parking into off-street lot and garages. On-street curbside
parking utilization has stabilized with every year following the new hourly rate implementation.
Histo rical O ff -Street M eter Lot Utili zation: The adjustments in parking habits, to off-street
surface lots, have been a positive counter action from the reduction of on-street utilization. The
permanent closure of the P52 Lot for the construction of the Collins Park Garage have contributed to
the reduction in utilization, year-to-date.
Historical A tt end ed O ff -Street Lot Utilization: The increase of on-street meter hourly rates
along with a strong enforcement presence contributed to the higher monthly utilization at the attended
parking lots. The closure of the P-Lot in Dec of 2015 and the conversion of the P71to 24-hour
enforcement contributed to the reduction in attended lot utilization year-to-date. South Pointe Park is

These amounts include revenue for the month that had not yet posted.
Enforcement: The City receives its share of parking citation revenue that occur in Miami Beach from
Miami-Dade County Parking Violations Bureau which processes, collects, and adjudicates parking
violations for all jurisdictions in the county. On October 1,2019 Miami-Dade County increased
parking violations with the Ordinance No. 18-145 that amends Sections 30-388.32 and 30-450 of
the Miami-Dade County codes. When compared to the prior year, revenues increased over the same
time period in the prior year. Revenue was on pace to increase by 74% largely related to the
County's fine schedule increase; however, it is anticipated that this gain will be eroded in the coming
months due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Garages: Revenues are composed of transient, monthly, and flat rate special event rates. Garage
revenue variances are driven by many variables which include, but are not limited to, special events,
weather, tourism, and maintenance. When compared to the prior year, the decrease in revenue was

5th and Alton Garage: The 5th and Alton Garage is a joint development (parking garage) with
the "Developer" (Edens) containing 1,080 parking spaces. The Developer and City own 54% and
46% of the parking spaces, respectively, and profit/loss is also shared in the same manner. The
City's revenue portion (46%) for the month of March is $35,433.95 resulting in total net loss of
$23,682.75. Pursuant to the Development Agreement, the City receives its proportionate share of
profit or must subsidize any loss. The City and Developer continue to jointly pursue initiatives to
promote the use of the garage. These initiatives include but are not limited to "after hours" flat rate
parking; valet parking storage; monthly parking; and strategically placed electronic signage directing
users to the facility. Future considerations include promotional rates for "after hours and park and
ride options to the entertainment districts.
Historical Attended/Metered Garage Utilization: Transportation Network Entities (TNE),
such as Uber and Lyft, have impacted parking demand cityw ide resulting in the decrease in the
monthly attended garage utilization. However due to the increase of the on-street meter hourly rate in
October of 2015 parking; habits have adjusted to direct parking to off-street parking facilities and
attended garage. Additionally, municipal garages at City Hall and 42nd Street provide metered
parking within the facility. The integration of Parkmobile within municipal garages began during
FY 17 which has contributed to the increase in parking utilization year-to-date.

Total Permit Sales $ 429,132 $ 465,006 $ 35,874 $ 2,318,643 $ 2,499,524 $ 180,882
Permit Sales: The sale of residential and visitor's virtual permits was introduced in fiscal year
2015, allowing residents to purchase residential permits and visitor permits for their guests online. As
part of this program, in 2015, the Administration transitioned from set annual or semi-annual periods
for residential permit renewal by zone to renewal periods according to birth month (similar to vehicle
registration renewals). This spread the purchase permit sales over all months versus a set month.
Additionally, before the transition to the new system, residents pre-purchased visitor hangtags from
our customer service center to be used at a later date. The new virtual permit system allows residents
to purchase a virtual visitor permit real time when needed. This eliminated the need to purchase
multiple (paper) permits and it too spread the purchase of the virtual visitor permits over all months
versus a set month. The virtual visitor permits are enforced using LPR technology. When compared to
the prior year, the increase in monthly permit revenue was due to the correction of deferred revenues
from the fiscal year 2019. The decrease in space rental and residential permit revenue was a direct
impact from the COVID-19 pandemic.
