14THE CITY OF PLEASANT LIVING To: FROM: DATE: CITY OF SOUTH MIAMI OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM The Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Commission Steven Alexander, City Manager Agenda Item NO.:J.!I June 7, 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. At the April 19, 2016, City Commission Meeting, the Mayor and Commission reviewed the proposed revisions to the City's "Schedule of Fees and Fines." The City Administration has recommended the below revisions through the suggestions provided by Commission or after further review by Department Directors. Public Works & Utilities Fee Schedule The existing title has been revised from Public Works & Utilities Fee Schedule to Public Works Fee Schedule. in order to clarify the charges associated with the Public Works Department. The fee title Street Name or Directional Signs has been revised to Directional Signs. Trash collections has been adjusted to 1/3 truck load, 8 cubic yards and appliances will have a new fee of $75 each. Public Works barricades (up to 100) have also been adjusted to $250 per day. Barricades (101 or more) each per day will be $3 each. The bridges, bus shelters, permanent traffic barricade, guardrail and guideposts permit classifications were removed as they are not applicable within the City of South Miami. Police Department Fee Schedule For off duty work, a $40 per hour fee per the Officer is in place, a five dollar per hour fee for use of a marked police car when needed. The existing Radio fee per Officer, per day, as well as towing signs per premises have been targeted to be eliminated in the proposed Ordinance to be sent to you soon for your action. This proposed Ordinance is intended to eliminate current Code provisions which have not been implemented by the City for many years. We are proposing a much simpler to administer process, which will be much more effective for the community. Tow operators and storage sites who require Police intervention due to disturbances and/or to settle disputes or have found not to have complied with all applicable Florida State Statues, Miami-Dade County Ordinances and or City of South Miami Towing Ordinances shall be fined $500 by the City of South Miami after the 2nd documented police response. After 12 such responses the City shall reserve the right to suspend any such operators Business License. Each such call for service requires two Officers to attend as it is reported as a disturbance. This is for Officer safety. Each call takes two Officers off their other duties for as much as an hour. Parks & Recreation Fitness Center Fee Schedule Based on the weight training and cardiovascular equipment available at the City's Fitness Center, and its proposed relocation to the ground floor, the Parks and Recreation Department is proposing to simplify the membership types and revise the fe.e schedule. Please find below highlights of the changes which have been incorporated based on the Commission's recommendations from the 1" reading and further review by the Parks and Recreation Department. Members who elect to enroll in monthly or annual recurring payment options with credit card will NOT be required to pay a non-refundable, one-time administration/registration fee of $30.00 City staff evaluated the fees charged by other municipalities and private clubs located in Miami-Dade County and discovered the following proposed rates to be in line: Parks & Recreation Community Pool Fee Schedule Swim and Water Aerobics Fees Water Aerobics Swim Classes $35 unlimited monthly pass $60 fa r 8 19 elasses $5 daily class fee Resident participants who attend all required classes (perfect attendance) are entitled to a $30 refund upon request. Request for refund must be made in writing at least seven (7) days after the last class date. Refunds may take approximately 4-6 weeks to be processed. Special Events Fee Schedule The City of South Miami Parks and Recreation Department is responsible for setting up the portable stage, extensions and attaching stairs. The Department has received several requests for the use of the City's stage for non-City related events in the past year. City resources, including staff, vehicles and time are required to assemble and break-down the stage before and after an event.

CRIME WATCH I SUNDAY MAY ZZ 1016 MIAMIHERAlD.COM When traveling, kids should wear seat belts or be in car seats BY CARMEN GONZALEZ CALDWELL Special ta The Miami Herald F ormally, buckling up in a vehicle is second nature. Open the door, sit down, start the car and buckle your seat belt. But according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, in the United States in 2014, 9,385 peopJe lost their lives as a result of not completing this simple, essential step. That's why local law enforcement agencies will join the adm.inistration May 23 to JWle 5 in the national Click It or Ticket enforcement campaign. This enforcement period comes ahead of the Me~ morial Day holiday, one of the busiest travel week~ ends of the year. While 88.5 percent of passenger vehicle occu- pants buckled up in 2015, almost 50 percent of oc~ cupants of fatal crashes nationwide are not re~ strained, according to the administration, Many believe that driv~ ing in large vehicles, trucks or SUVs offers greater protection during a vehicle crash. Sadly, this is not the case. According to NHTSA, 61 percent of pickup truck occupants who were killed in crashes were not buck- led up. That's compared to 42 percent of passenger car occupants who were killed while not wearing their seat belts. Addition- ally, men and young adults are more likely to not wear seat belts. EvelY day, I see kids still not properly re- strained, so let's review what the recommenda- tions are for children in vehicles: • Under 12 months: Your child under age 1 should always ride in a rear-facing car seat. There are different types of rear-facing car seats: In~ fant-only seats can only be used rear-facing. Con- vertible and 3-in-l car seats typically have higher height and weight limits for the rear~facing posi~ tion, allowing you to keep your child rear-facing for a longer period of time. A rear~facing car seat is best for your young child to use. It has a harness and in a crash, cradles and moves with your child to reduce the stress to the child's fragile neck and spinal cord. .1 to 3 Years: Your child should remain in a rear-facing car seat until he or she reaches the top height or weight limit allowed by your car seat's manufacturer. Once your child ontgrows the rear- facing car seat, he or she is ready to travel in a forward-facing car seat with a harness.
