Our proposal includes a description and explanation of the scope of the appraisal, our methodology, the deliverables, project timing and professional fees along with our professional qualifications. SCOPE OF SERVICE Nature of Service The purpose of our work will be to develop a comprehensive report covering the fixed assets of The City of South Miami (the "City") for assistance in complying with the reporting requirements of Governmental Accounting Standards Board's (GASB) Statement No. 34, develop an inventory for property control purposes and develop accurate property insurance values. Project Inclusions The fixed assets to be included in this engagement are located in various City-owned facility sites and structures, as reported by the City. The facilities include Capital Assets which comprise typical municipal occupancies (administration, education, police, fire, maintenance, parks, etc.) Also included are the City's infrastructure assets comprised of roads, lighting, signs, sidewalks, bridges, traffic control devices, and the storm water management system. General assets included in the development of the comprehensive fixed asset model include: • Buildings at $50,000 and above • Land Improvements at $25,000 and above • Land at $1 and above • Infrastructure at $250,000 and above Leading I Thinking I Performing 2 City of South Miami July 11, 2012 American Appraisal .. Moveable Equipment at a capitalization threshold of $5,000 for GASB 34 purposes; inventory and barcode tag assets at $1,000 and above for property management and control Project Exclusions Excluded from the services provided by this proposal are: .. Enterprise Funds .. Assets Below the Capitalization Thresholds .. Leased Equipment -Operating II Assets in or at locations that are considered as not easily accessible or identified locations within the proposal II Personal Property of Employees or Others .. Vehicles .. Supplies/Expendable Inventories • Historical Treasures When equipment is not easily accessible, we will consult with you to gather the information, or the assistance, needed to perform American Appraisal's inventory. If desired, library books, radios, computer software, fine arts and historical treasures, and licensed vehicles can also be incorporated into the record based on information supplied by the City. This information must be provided to American Appraisal during the initial field inspection to be included in the reports. We will not inspect, tag or value any of the special assets identified by the City. EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE ApPRAISAL The effective or "as of" date of the appraisal for accounting purposes will be as of a current date on this project, unless otherwise advised by the City. For insurance purposes the effective or "as of" date will be the last day of field work. PREMISE OF VALUE The premises of value, as well as certain related valuation terms, are defined as follows: II Cost of Reproduction New (For Insurance Purposes Only) -The amount required to reproduce a duplicate or a replica of the entire property at one time in like kind and materials in accordance with current market prices for materials, labor, and manufactured equipment, contractors' overhead and profit, and fees, but without provision for overtime, bonuses for labor, or premiums for material or equipment. In insurance industry terminology, cost of reproduction new, as defined above, is synonymous with the insurance industry phrase, "replacement cost." Leading I Thinking I Performing 3 City of South Miami July 11, 2012 American Appraisal iii Historical Cost -The actual cost of a property to the present owner -the cost as of the date the property was first constructed or originally installed. When historical cost is provided in a usable format, it will be included. When this information is not readily available, American Appraisal will estimate the original cost by applying reverse inflation indices to the cost of reproduction new. III Estimated Original Cost -The estimated original cost of the property in accordance with costs as of the actual or estimated date the property was first constructed, originally installed, or purchased. III Direct Costing -Additional research into the historical cost documented as provided by the City in a readily available and useable format, in the City's property records for the original construction, improvements and betterments. .. Normal Costing -Estimated cost based on the cost of reproduction new indexed by a reciprocal factor of the price increase from the appraisal date to the actual or estimated acquisition date. iii Acquisition Date -When readily available, we will use the actual acquisition date of the property. In the absence of readily available information, the acquisition date will be estimated based upon American Appraisal's knowledge of the property type and its condition. II Estimated Life -An estimate will be made of the useful life of each unit-controlled asset and each group-controlled asset. The matter of historicallifing practice versus estimated actual lives will be discussed during the planning meeting and an acceptable approach will be developed. II Accumulated Depreciation -Will be based on the asset's cost, acquisition date and the estimated useful life utilizing the straight-line basis of depreciation. Useful lives will be based on information provided by the City or industry standards. '" Insurable Value (For Insurance Purposes Only) -Cost of reproduction new (replacement cost) as of the appraisal date will be used as a basis for insurable values for all controlled property. VALUATION ApPROACH Our analysis will consider the three basic approaches to value: income, market and cost. In accordance with the USPAP guidelines, all basic approaches to value will be considered; however, because the purpose of our investigation will be to express an opinion on the existence and the historical cost and accumulated depreciation of certain fixed assets for financial reporting purposes, it will be considered appropriate to rely solely on the cost approach. METHODOLOGY Buildings We will utilize a full-scope, segregated cost approach including an inspection of each building with a cost of $50,000 and above to identify construction data that will be used in the valuation process. Leading I Thinking / Performing 4 City of South Miami July 11, 2012 American Appraisal During inspection of the premises, we will calculate each building's area and perimeter by measuring the structure or through an analysis of the as-built blueprints or other verified source; identify and record data of the major construction components (type of structure, walls, roof, etc.) and type of construction; record number of stories and occupancy; confirmation of addresses and zip codes for each location; record data of major service systems (electrical, plumbing, security, elevators, heating, ventilation, cooling, fire protection, etc.); photograph the building; and record the GPS coordinates and flood zone classifications. The insurable value of each building and the related construction, occupancy, protection, and exposure (COPE) data obtained during the inspection will be reported on an itemized basis for each structure appraised. Moveable Equipment A detailed inventory of moveable equipment will include a physical inspection and barcode tagging of all owned equipment with a unit cost in excess of $5,000 for GASB 34 purposes, and $1,000 for property management and control purposes. Floor plans will be required to assist the inventory team in assuring that no areas are missed. Assets less than $1,000 will be excluded. It is important to note that we will not be performing a detailed reconciliation to the City's existing fixed asset ledger. Land Improvements While inspecting site structures, we will also conduct an inventory of site/land improvements and miscellaneous structures at $25,000 and above. Pertinent data regarding assets in these categories, i.e. paving, lighting, fencing, parking lots, sidewalks, signs, flagpoles, curbs, retaining walls, etc. will be recorded to permit assignment of value. Land Land will be included based on the data provided to us by the City. As a part of this engagement, we will conduct a cursory review of the data. If the data is not available, or sufficient, for an additional fee of $125 per parcel, American Appraisal will research the City records to identify the City's owned land assets. In gathering this data, we will: .. Research the City Assessor's databases and files to identify land owned by the City; .. Utilize data gathered from the City Assessor's office to research deed information; .. Compile a data report indicating, as available, the following items: • Parcel Number • Date of Sa Ie • Parcel Size • Estimated Acquisition Price • Street Address when available Leading I Thinking I Performing 5 City of South Miami j). July 11,2012 American Appraisal Upon completion of the identification process we will meet with you and your external auditors to discuss American Appraisal's findings. At that time, we will be prepared to discuss the materiality of developing the historical costs for parcels for which acquisition costs were unavailable. Infrastructure and Related Rights-of-Way American Appraisal will include infrastructure assets at $250,000 and above in the GASB 34 report. We will rely on the City to provide detailed information as follows: III Asset Classes (roads, bridges, sidewalks, easements/ROW, traffic control, storm water, etc.) • Quantitative (lane miles, square feet, etc.) • Description of the Asset • Locational Information • Historical Cost • Date of Acquisition RESPONSIBILITIES The City's Responsibilities • Confirm the list of all property to be included in the assignment, along with physical location/street address, on-site property contact / department liaison, and telephone number. III Identify a representative of the City to serve as the primary on-site contact and liaison between the City and American Appraisal. II Provide copies of any prior fixed asset listings, in hard copy and electronic media. Of Provide complete and open access to all designated areas including security escorts for security-sensitive areas. American Appraisal's Responsibilities • Develop a project work plan prior to commencement of our field investigations. • Conduct an inventory of the assets, collecting the following data elements: • Asset Location Of Building Identification • Department Number • Asset Number • Asset Account Code • Asset Classification Code • Function Code Leading / Thinking / Performing 6 City of South Miami July 11, 2012 • Quantity • Asset Description • Prepare final reports. ft American Appraisal • Provide status reports as to our progress, or challenges, incurred throughout the study from start to delivery.

DELIVERABLES American Appraisal The City will receive one full bound report, as well as a .PDF file and an electronic file in Excel format for City auditors. Summary Appraisal Report -American Appraisal will provide the City with a Summary Appraisal Report, in accordance with the reporting requirements set forth by the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice C"USPAP"). The report will present only summary discussions of the data, reasoning, and analyses used in the appraisal process to develop American Appraisal's opinion of value. Supporting documentation concerning the data, reasoning, and analyses will be retained as a part of the work papers. American Appraisal is not responsible for unauthorized use of its report.

Leading I Thinking I Performing 8 City of South Miami July11,2012 ~ American Appraisal Property Insurance -Statement of Insurable Values -The standard Property Insurance -Statement of Insurable Values Report displays description of fields being summarized, and cost of reproduction new. OPTIONAL SERVICES Annual Updating -Properly Record Outsourcing Service In order to protect the initial investment in the inventory and appraisal, the City may wish to employ American Appraisal's Property Record Outsourcing Service (PROS). There are two options to consider: Desktop PROS and On-site PROS. For the desktop service the City supplies property changes such as additions, deletions, retirements, transfers, etc to American Appraisal on an annual basis, usually by electronic transfer. American Appraisal's full time PROS staff then provides the City with a fully-updated report within approximately 45 days of receipt of the changes from the City. On- site PROS would entail an American Appraisal staff member revisiting the City in 2013 and years to come, to conduct a verification inventory -we would re-inventory the assets, identifying and tagging new assets found and describing prior assets not found. TIMING Upon receipt of your signed authorization, American Appraisal will work closely with the City to establish project start, field work and report delivery schedules to meet your reporting requirements. It is our understanding that the start date should be no later than November 1st of each fiscal year and that the final report be issued no later than December 15th of each fiscal year. FEES The scope of our work and resultant fee estimate reflects our expectations regarding the complexity of the valuation, as well as the information that The City of South Miami will make available to us. Our fee for this engagement is as follows, including expenses: Primary Service: Inventory and Insurance Appraisal Leading / Thinking / Performing Year 1 (2012) Year 2 (2013) Year 3 (2014) Year 4 (2015) Year 5 (2016) $5,499 $5,600 $5,700 $5,800 $6,000 9 City of South Miami July 11,2012 American Appraisal The fee quotation is based on our current understanding of your requirements and the Engagement scope. The City and American Appraisal will mutually revise the fee to reflect any changes in services. The fees stated years 2013 thru 2016 are based on the understanding there are no additional structures and square footage to inventory and appraise. Fees do not include any applicable excise, sales, use or value added taxes. All such taxes shall be the responsibility of the City and will be added to the City's invoice if American Appraisal pays these taxes on the City's behalf. American Appraisal's compensation is not contingent in any way upon its opinions or conclusions, or upon any subsequent event related to those opinions or conclusions. NEXT STEPS We will require a fully executed Letter of Engagement between American Appraisal and the City to begin work on our appraisal.

This year, the city is "very close to coming to break-even" and even have "some little savings." He said he had some concerns for next year. For the first time in the history of South Miami, the police department's cost is greater than the general fund revenues from property taxes, he said. ferred to him, Police Chief Orlando Martinez de Castro and Newman, who are all of Cuban heritage, as the "Cu- ban Mafla." "It is illegal in this country to discriminate on the basis of race, creed, sexual orien- tation or national origin," Mirabile said in the letter. Beckman said she was not discriminating against Mi- rabile and said that she likes Cubans. Stoddard disap- proved of Mirabile's letter and presented a response. In his letter addressed to Mira- bile, he said that his allega- tions of "hate crime" and "conspiracy" were extreme and inaccurate. "Conspiracy means that people are agreeing to com- mit a crime. No one has committed a crime here," Stoddard said. "In a demo- ing this week. Welsh said Newman and Mirabile's accusations lack weight. He has expressed publicly and in one of the flyers he hands out to city residents that he doesn't think Mirabile and Martinez de Castro have the city's best interest at heart. Earlier this month, Welsh called for a special meeting to propose a charter change that would allow voters to change the current form of government. Under the cur- rent city manager form of government, the chief fman- cial officer and the police chief report to the city man- ager. Welsh's proposal would permanently give the commission more power over both offices. "We are the body that hears what the people want,"Welshsaid. "We want to make sure that the city's purchasing is being done properly and is getting a good price." The commission as a whole wasn't convinced. Liebman said commission- ers were not equipped to manager, fIre him for cause, or if not, fire him for no cause," Mirabile said at a meeting. Welsh said he disagreed with Mirabile, and he is de- termined to push for "pro- gressive change." Stoddard is open to the "experiment." "If the commission had agreed to do it, then there would be a proposal that would be put on the Novem- ber ballot," Stoddard ex- plained. "I think there are merits to the idea, so we are supporting a charter review committee."
