As provided in the City of South Miami Ordinance 21-00-1723, and in accordance with a transfer approved by the County, the City took operational control over the stormwater utility function within the City's boundaries. In accordance with Resolution 091-17-14892, commencing with the Fiscal Year beginning October 1, 2018, the City of South Miami will be using the uniform method of collecting non-ad valorem assessments as authorized in Section 197.3632, Florida Statutes, for the stormwater fees. As part of those efforts, the City would like to update the amounts currently being charged to non-residential properties based on impervious area, and make sure that all amounts being charged are accurate. The charges for residential properties is not based on impervious area, hence no need to evaluate is necessary, they will continue to be charged $54 annually, as normal. Marlin Engineering, Inc., one of four consultants retained by the City under the authority of Resolution q60-17-14861, a Request for Qualifications #PW2016-22 and Florida Statue 287.55, "Consultants Competitive Negotiation Act." Marlin Engineering, Inc., the next consultant in the rotation, was requested to provide a proposal for the completion of a study to determine the accurate stormwater fee to non- residential properties within the City. The fee over the five-year period is as follows: THE CITY OF PLEASANT LIVING Amount: Account: ATTACHMENTS: CITY OF SOUTH MIAMI OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM Year 1 $50,000 Year 2 $12,000 Year 3 $12,000 Year 4 $12,000 YearS $12,100 TOTAL $98,100 Note: Years 2 through 5 provide updates to the annual report developed in Year 1. Lastly, Finance anticipates a recurring increase of approximately $50,000 annually by moving from "user fee" collection to "non-ad valorem, uniform collection method" due to the amount of property owners being billed versus utility customers, less outstanding balances or delinquent accounts, and the savings related to the collection cost.

I. General The project will primarily consist of a study to determine the proper Stormwater Non-ad valorem billing for City residents. The scope of work outlines the effort required. 1. Data Collection 2. GIS Database 3. Runoff Analysis 4. Financial Calculations 5. Update to the Annual Report Scope of Work Conduct a field survey and data collection effort of all Non-Residential properties and measure all impervious areas for "Non-Residential Properties". Impervious areas include buildings, parking lots, sidewalks, driveways and roadways. Prepare a GIS database with an inventory of impervious areas compatible with the Miami Dade County GIS system. The City needs to determine and provide the amount of runoff that is generated (as measured by impervious surfaces) for each "Non-Residential" property so the City may apply an "ERU" (Equivalent Runoff Unit) and calculate the proper stormwater fee amount. The City must provide that amount to Miami-Dade County Property Appraiser's Office so that they may bill the property owner using the Property Tax Bill in accordance with the established process as denoted in the 2016 Non-Ad Valorem Assessment Package (see attachment). Assist the City in calculating the accurate amount to charge all "Non-Residential" properties for the City's Stormwater fee. The City has just recently changed the billing format for Stormwater billing. The City beginning next year, will be billing property owners, as part of the non-ad valorem billing section ofthe Property's tax bill. As part of this change, we need to provide the Property Appraiser's Office with the amounts to charge each property owner. 1700 NW 66 th Avenue, Suite 106, Plantation, FL 33313 • 954.870.5070 • www.marlinengineering.com MARLIN Provide an update to the annual report generated over the next 5 years.
