11THE CITY OF PLEASANT LIVING To: CITY OF SOUTH MIAMI OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM The Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Commission FROM: Steven Alexander, City Manager Agenda Item No.:ll DATE: April 5, 2016 An Ordinance relating to the fee schedule; amending ordinance 22-14-2200 to increase some fees, adding new fees, and deleting some fees from the schedule •. Below please find a breakdown with additional information and highlighted changes to the proposed "Schedule ofFees and Fines". An attached revised schedule has been provided which reflects items that staff is recommending be revised. Central Services Fee Schedule The Division title "Central Services" is being proposed to be revised to "Procurement Division." With that Division name change, some of the "services" and associated fees with Central Services have been eliminated from the responsibility of the Procurement Division, hence the fee schedule is amended to reflect that reality. 1. Background Check is still a valid fee and is proposed to be moved to Police, as they are now administering that program. 2. Professional Photos & Filming is proposed to be moved to Parks and Recreation as the Parks Department is now responsible for the City's Special Events. 3. Laminating is proposed to be deleted; the City no longer provides such services. Public Works & Utilities Fee Schedule The wording related to excess trash is being revised from "over ~ truck load ... " to "each additional truck load ... " to clarify that the excess trash fee of $156 would be applicable to each ~ truck load and not just for anything over a ~ truck load in its entirety. City Clerk Fee Schedule A new Bid Protest Fee of $1,000 is being added under the City Clerk fee schedule. The Bid Protest Fee is in accordance with Administrative Order #2-15r, dated May 7, 2015, copy attached. A summary is below: "A protest of the solicitation or award must be in writing ("Protest Letter") and submitted to the City Clerk's office within five calendar days after the date of the filing of the notice of intent to file Q protest. The Protest Letter is considered filed when the Protest Letter and the required filing fee of $1,000 are both timely received by the City Clerk's office." Police Department Fee Schedule A new special magistrate administration fee of $100 is being added under the Police Department fee schedule, specifically for the red light cameras infraction hearings held at the City of South Miami. Parks & Recreation Fitness Center Fee Schedule After careful evaluation and in an effort to better meet the needs of the City's customers, the Parks and Recreation Department is requesting certain revisions to simplify the fee schedule. Based on the location, size and number of weight training and cardiovascular equipment available at the City's Fitness Center, the Parks and Recreation Department is proposing to simplify the membership types and revise the fee schedule as follow: Proposed Fitness Center Fee Schedule Membership -Monthly *One -time Registration Fee (non-recurring payment users) $10 Resident $10 Non-Resident $30 Membership -Annual *One -time Registration Fee (non-recurring payment users) $10 Resident $110 Non-Resident $330 *Members who elect not to enroll in monthly or annual recurring payment options with credit card will be required to pay a non-refundable, one-time administration/registration fee of $10.00. City staff evaluated the fees charged by other municipalities and private clubs located in Miami- Dade County and discovered the following results: Fitness Center Monthly Fees City I Site Miami Springs Community Ctr. City of Miami -Jose Marti Gym Coral Gables -Fitness Center City of Aventura -Snyder Park Hollywood -Dr. MLK Comm. Ctr. North Miami Beach -Allen Park Miami Gardens -BTF Rec. Ctr. Village of Key Biscayne Comm. Ctr.

Ctr. $53 $111 North Miami Beach -Allen Park $270 $375 Miami Gardens ~ BTF Rec. Ctr. $35 $35 Village of Key Biscayne Comm. Ctr. $200 $300 Youth Monthly $25 $22 $30 $10 $21.75 Youth Annual $150 Does not offer annual plans Does not offer annual plans Does not offer annual plans $56 $270 $130 LA Fitness Does not offer annual plans Planet Fitness Does not offer annual plans Average Membership Fee $109.75 $173.38 $151.50 The Parks and Recreation Department believes the proposed fee structure is not only competitive compared to other local Cities and private clubs, but also affordable for City residents including seniors, students and families. The new fees will allow the department to increase membership-retention rates and offer a variety of classes such as yoga, boot camp, kickboxing and zumba at separate costs. Parks & Recreation Community Pool Fee Schedule Currently the City does not include within the existing fee schedule any fees for water aerobics and swim classes. The Parks and Recreation Department conducted an evaluation of aquatic program fees throughout Miami Dade County (MDe). The average price charged by the City of Miami Gardens, Town of Cutler Bay, City of Miami Springs, MDC A.D. Barnes Park and City of Miami is approximately $4 per class for Water Aerobics, $46 for Swim Classes, and $43 for Parent & Tot Classes. City/Town/County Water Aerobics Swim Classes Parent & Tot Classes City of Miami Gardens $5 per class $30 for 8 classes $20 for 4 classes Town of Cutler Bay N.A. $50 for 8 classes $50 for 8 classes City of Miami Springs $5 per class $45 for 8 classes N.A. A.D. Barnes Park $3 per class $60 for 10 classes $60 for 10 classes City of Miami $3 adult / $1 senior N.A. • Resident $45 for 8 classes • Non-Resident $65 for 8 classes Average $4 per class $46 fo r 8 cI asses $43 for 5 classes Based on the information above, the City's Parks and Recreation Department is proposing to charge the following aquatic program fees: Water Aerobics $30 unlimited monthly pass $3 daily class fee Swim Classes $35 for 8 classes (Resident) $50 for 8 classes (Non-Resident) Parent & Tot Classes $25 for 4 classes The Parks and Recreation Department believes that the proposed fee structure is not only competitive compared to other local Cities and Towns, but also reasonable for City resident and will help offset operating costs associated with maintaining the Murray Park Aquatic Center. Parks & Recreation Sports Fee Schedule In the current fee schedule the football and cheerleading fee is $72.30. The additional ,0.30 makes the fee collection difficult for both faculty and those paying the fee. The Parks and Recreation Department believes that rounding the fee to a whole number would simplify payment collection. Parks & Recreation Tennis Fee Schedule Currently the City fee schedule does not include any fees for Tennis. The City's Parks and Recreation Department conducted an evaluation for tennis clay court fees, illustrated below. Facility Tropical Tennis Ctr. Biltmore & Salvadore Tennis Ctr. Crandon Tennis Ctr.

The recommended fee schedule is as follow: Daily Court Fees (HOURLY per person) • Resident (*junior & senior) • Resident (adult) • Non-Resident • * Junior 17 and under / Senior 55 and older Outside Instructor Group Program $3 $5 $8 • Instructor rate (per hour)* $35 • *No more than six (6) persons per count Camp Fees (spring. summer. winter) • . Half-Day (daily per person) • Full-Day (daily per person) Kids Day Off (teacher planning day) • Half-Day (per person) • Full-Day (per person) After School Program $26 $44 $30 $50 • One (1) tot class per week (45 min.) $20 • One (1) class per week (1 hour) $20 • Two (2) classes per week (1.5 hour) $30 Adult Tennis Clinic (4 classes per session) • Resident $100 • Non-Resident $120 Private Lesson Fee • Instructor (per hour) $60 USTA Matches/SFWDTLlFacility Tournaments Varies The Parks and Recreation Department believes the proposed fee schedule is not only competitive compared to other local Cities and private clubs, but also reasonable for City residents and will help offset operating cost associated with maintaining the tennis facilities at Dante Fascell Park.

The word "bid", as well as all of its derivations, shall mean a response to a solicitation, including requests for proposals, requests for a letter of interest and requests for qualifications. (a) Notice Of Intent To Protest. Any actual or prospective bidder who perceives itself to be aggrieved in connection with any formal solicitation or who intends to contest or object to any bid specifications or any bid solicitation shall file a written notice of intent to file a protest with the City Clerk's office within three calendar days prior to the date set for opening of bids. A notice of intent to file a protest is considered filed when received by the City Clerk's office bye-mail or, if hand delivered, when stamped with the City Clerk's receipt stamp containing the date and time of receipt of a notice of intent to file a protest. Any actual responsive and responsible bidder who perceives itself to be aggrieved in connection with the recommended award of a contract and who wishes to protest the award, shall file a written notice of intent to file a protest with the City Clerk's office within three calendar days after the City Commission meeting at which the recommendation is considered for action. A notice of intent to file a protest is considered filed when received by the City Clerk's office bye-mail or, if hand delivered, when stamped with the City Clerk's receipt stamp containing the date and time of receipt. (b) Protest of solicitation. A protest of the solicitation or award must be in writing ("Protest Letter") and submitted to the City Clerk's office within five calendar days after the date of the filing of the notice of intent to file a protest. The Protest Letter is considered filed when the Protest Letter and the required filing fee of $1,000 are both timely received by the City Clerk's office. In order for the Protest Letter and filing fee to be considered timely delivered by hand delivery, the date stamp of the Clerk's office must appear on the original Protest Letter and/or a copy of the Protest Letter and the date stamp must also appear on a copy of the check issued for the payment of the filing fee, or, if payment is made in cash, a receipt must be issued by the Clerk's office reflecting the date of receipt of the payment. While the Clerk may accept the Protest Letter by email, the Protest Letter shall not be considered to be timely received until and unless the required filing fee of $1,000 is THE CITY OF PLEASANT UVING received by the City Clerk's office and, if payment is in cash, a receipt is issued with the date of the receipt of payment, or if payment is by check, a copy of the check is stamped by the Clerk with the date stamp of the Clerk's office showing the date of receipt. The Protest Letter shall state with particularity the specific facts and law upon which the protest is based, it shall describe and attach all pertinent documents and evidence relevant and material to the protest and it shall be accompanied by any required filing.

(cl Computation of time. No time will be added to the above time limits for service by mail. The last day of the period so computed shall be included unless it is a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday in which event the period shall run until the next day which is not a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday. (dl Challenges. The written protest may not challenge the relative weight of the evaluation criteria or any formula used for assigning points in making an award determination, nor shall it challenge the City's determination of what is in the City's best interest which is one of the criteria for selecting a bidder whose offer may not be the lowest bid price. (el Authority to resolve protests. The Purchasing Manager, after consultation with the City Attorney, shall issue a written recommendation within ten calendar days after receipt of a valid Protest Letter. Said recommendation shall be sent to the City Manager with a copy sent to the protesting party. The City Manager may then, submit a recommendation to the City Commission for approval or disapproval of the protest, resolve the protest without submission to the City Commission, or reject all proposals. (fl Stay of procurement during protests. Upon receipt of a timely, proper and valid Protest Letter filed pursuant to the requirements of this section, the City shall not proceed further with the solicitation or with the award or execution of the contract until the protest is resolved by the City Manager or the City Commission as provided in subsection (el above, unless the City Manager makes a written determination that the solicitation process or the contract award must be continued without delay in order to avoid potential harm to the health, safety, or welfare of the public or to protect substantial interests of the City or to prevent youth athletic teams from effectively missing a playing season.
