BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF NG TO AUTHORIZING THE CITY CONTRACT WITH MARTIN OUTDOOR AND, PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE In November 2000, the City Commission issued RFP No. BBA -00 -001, which sought to retain the services of a bus bench company to provide bus benches within the City. The terms of the RFP were structured in order to permit bus bench advertising in commercial and multi - family zoning districts, while benches in single - family residential areas would contain no advertising. Martin Outdoor Media, Inc. was the only company to positively respond to the City's RFP. Martin Outdoor Media has been servicing other cities, such as North Miami Beach and Miami Springs, with similar bus bench programs. The Administration has checked the company's references and has determined that the company is reputable. The proposed bus bench design would consist of two concrete supports, painted flat black, connected with wooden 2x4's. The originally proposed design has been significantly modified to better harmonize with the City's neighborhood character. The proposed design features natural wood colored 2x4's that are sealed with marine grade varnish to guard against graffiti. The natural wood color, is visually pleasing and blends well with a variety of different neighborhood landscapes. In commercial and multi - family areas, the back of the benches would contain advertising panels. The City will retain right of approval of the advertisements; no ads for inappropriate business will be permitted. Bus Bench Advertising Commission Meeting: April 17, 2001 Page 2 of 2 The bus bench design was presented to the Environmental Review and Protection Board, who unanimously supported the proposed design. The benches will be fitted with natural wood colored "vagrancy dividers" to discourage sleeping or lounging. The City will receive a minimum annual guarantee of $5,000. With the addition of the percentage rent payment, the annual payment to the City in the first year of the contract will be in excess of $13,000. The contract is for a five -year period. The contract does contain a 90 -day cancellation provision, without cause, at the sole discretion of the City. A sample of the bus bench will be on display in the City Hall parking lot prior to the Commission meeting. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the attached resolution be adopted.

City of North Miami Beach Bus Bench Advertisement Program North Miami Beach, Florida Martin Outdoor Media was awarded the contract for the turnkey operation of this 200 bench municipal system on December 1, 2000. We were responsible for the design, construction and installation of the very attractive modern style of benches that are there now. Since taking over operations, Martin Outdoor Media has been able to increase advertisement sales by an impressive 700°/x. In addition, the Martin Outdoor Media team has been involved in a number of maintenance and product improvement initiatives (including trash clean-up) approved by the City. This was aimed at upgrading the appearance of the bus benches in general and enhancing the level of service provided to the maintenance program. As mentioned above, these maintenance enhancements have led to the overall reduction in maintenance related complaints by approximately 135 %. 2. City of Miami Springs Bus Bench Advertisement Program Miami Springs, Florida Martin Outdoor Media was recently (June 1, 2000) awarded the contract for the turnkey operation of this 20 bench municipal system due to the dismissal of the previous operator. Martin Outdoor Media's fine reputation and experience in operating the City of North Miami Beach's bus - bench - advertising system made the decision to award the contract easier for Mayor Cavalier and City Council. Again, we were responsible for the design, construction and installation of the very attractive modem style of benches that are there now. Since taking over operations, Martin Outdoor Media has been able to increase advertisement sales (there were no benches sold when we took over, we are now at 90% occupancy). In addition, the Martin Outdoor Media team has again been involved in a number of maintenance and product improvement initiatives (again, including trash clean-up) approved by the City. As mentioned above, these maintenance enhancements have led to the overall reduction in maintenance related complaints. 5.

Pictures of the Company's bus bench design. Exhibits A, B and C Please note Exhibits A, B and C on the following pages. These exhibits demonstrate the innovative new Bus Bench Design that Martin Outdoor Media is proposing for the City of South Miami's advertising program. These benches can be produced in any color scheme specified by the City. This style of bench is typically four times as expensive as the style of bench normally seen in South Florida (such as the ones currently in use). As a result, these benches have standard features that go beyond the normal bus bench design. We have outlined a few of these features below. L Steel Based Bus Benches Our style of bench has a steel based mono -pole design. The steel -based frames minimize repair and maintenance costs as they are much more durable than concrete. They are bolted into the concrete sidewalk or set down into swales. As a result, this style of bench is almost impossible to tip over. These frames also give a cleaner look to the bench, more compatible with the themes of the City's current beautification effort. H. Trash Cans for Each Bench Our style of bench has welded trash receptacles attached to them (as specified in the RFQ/P). The steel cans are welded to the bench to reduce vandalism. Their presence greatly reduces the likelihood of loose debris in the vicinity of each bench as they give riders a place to throw away their garbage. Again, welded trash receptacles compliment the street beautification efforts. Eye appeal in and around bus benches is extremely important to Martin Outdoor Media's advertising objectives. As previously mentioned in this Proposal, it is Martin Outdoor Media Company policy to police the ten -foot by ten -foot area that surrounds each bus bench that we operate. It is also Martin Outdoor Media policy to empty each trash receptacle three times per week. Again, the reduction of waste in and around bus benches is extremely important to Martin Outdoor Media. City of South Miami Bus Bench Proposal Bus Bench Design Page 1 r r r r r r M r r AlartiM Owtdoor A4odia III. Recycled Plastic Cross Beams Our sty le of bench uses recycled plastic 2x4's as cross beams and vagrancy deterrents. The recycled plastic 2x4s are environmentally friendly which can be very helpful to a City's image. Our recycled plastic 2x4s are specifically engineered to resist bowing to a much greater degree than wood. In addition, the vagrancy deterrents greatly reduce the use by unwanted non -bus riders. IV. Clear Plastic Advertisement Coverings Our style of bench uses a plexiglass shield to guard each advertisement. The clear plastic advertisement coverings minimize repair and maintenance costs as they give us the ability to clean graffiti with Windex and paper towels. We know how important this area is to the Mayor and City of South Miami. In addition to being more financially efficient, these coverings allow our advertisers and the City to have more appealing, less obstructed advertisements. Exhibit D Please note Exhibit D at the end of this section. This exhibit shows an Engineered Drawing of the innovative new style of bench that Martin Outdoor Media is proposing for the City of South Miami's bus bench advertising program. Exhibit E Please note Exhibit E at the end of this section. This exhibit shows the style of Covered Bus Bench that Martin Outdoor Media is proposing for the stops adjacent to the Senior Center. This is as required by the Request for Proposal/Qualifications. As you can see, this style of cover bus bench will allow the citizen that use the Senior Center to wait for the approaching bus both safely and out of the hot South Florida sun. This style of covered bus bench has been engineered to meet the South Florida wind load codes.
