CITY OF SOUTH MIAMI
OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER
INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO: The Honorable Mayor, Vice Mayor, and Members of the City Commission
FROM: Genaro “Chip” Iglesias, City Manager
DATE: July 29, 2025
SUBJECT: Budget Transfer – Capital Improvement Program Fund, Parks & Recreation
Improvement, line-item, 301-2000-572-6450, to the Engineering Capital
Improvement, line-item, 301-1790-519-6450
RECOMMENDATION: Approval of a budget transfer from Capital Improvement Program Fund,
Parks & Recreation Improvement, line-item, 301-2000-572-6450, to the
Engineering Capital Improvement, line-item, 301-1790-519-6450.
BACKGROUND: As discussed during the Capital Improvement Program workshop on June
3, 2025, several capital projects ended up underfunded when the FY 2025
budget was adopted. Unfortunately, the original cost estimates for some
of these projects turned out to be lower than the actual funding needed.
Since the Dante Fascell Community Building project is not expected to be
ready for solicitation or construction in FY 2025, the City is planning to
reallocate those funds to support other high-priority projects that are
ready to move forward.
The City remains fully committed to the construction of the Dante Fascell
Community Building and will include a funding appropriation request in
the FY 2026 budget.
FUNDING: Budget transfer from Capital Improvement Program Fund, Parks &
Recreation Improvement, line-item, 301-2000-572-6450, for $3,340,00 to
the Engineering Capital Improvement, line-item, 301-1790-519-6450.

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM FUND
CITY OF SOUTH MIAMI FUND 301
Mission and Responsibilities:
The purpose of the Capital Improvement Fund is to establish and cover multi-year expenditures
of major capital projects and expenditures for all General Government programs. The adopted
Capital Improvement Projects expenditures are identified on the Five–Year Capital Improvement
Project listing within the Capital Improvement Program section of this budget.
The Capital Improvement Fund finances the General Government’s Capital Improvement Projects
(CIP) as outlined and listed in the City’s Five-Year Financial Forecast for the years 2015-2019 as
listed in the Capital Improvement Program of this document. The City generally defines a Capital
Improvement Project (CIP) to be any project, which possesses the following characteristics:
1. Exceeds an estimated cost of $5,000.
2. Has an estimated useful life of 5 years or more.
The CIP Fund receives transfers from the General Fund based on the long -term capital budget
needs of the various City Departments and the Recreation programs. Revenues may also include
transfers from other financial sources and investment interest. For years prior to FY 2012, the
City would incorporate into the Departmental budget expenses related to Capital Improvements
for various General Government Programs. For years 2012 and forward, general fund CIP
expenditures are made directly from the CIP fund, providing more clarity to the budgeting
process.
