SUBJECT: Miamarina at Bayside:
Resolution Authorizing the City
Manager to Complete the renovations
FROM: REFERENCES: to the Dockmaster's Offices, Bathroom
ENCLOSURES: Laundry Facilities, and Installing a
Floating Dock.
RECOMMENDATION
It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached resolution
authorizing the City Manager to proceed with. the necessary steps to complete the renovations to
the Dockmaster's offices, bathroom and restrooms facilities and the acquisition and installation
of a floating docks. Further authorizing the City Manager to seek informal quotes and award the
contract to the lowest and most responsible bidder.
BACKGROUND
The new 104 slip marina at Miamarina at Bayside is scheduled to be completed by the end of this
month, and we anticipate annual revenues in excess of $1 million. Upon completion, the
Miamarina will be a first class marina that will serve both the general public and tourist and will
be a source of pride to the City of Miami and it's residents. It is our intention to operate this
marina with the highest level of service that is to be expected of a marina of this caliber.
Because of issues concerning whether the City of Miami or Bayside had responsibility for
renovating said facilities, the construction project did not include funding for the necessary
renovations. These lease issues with Bayside have now been resolved. We seek the City
Commission's approval to proceed immediately with the renovations in order to coincide with
the completion of the new marina.
Additionally, we request authorization to acquire and install approximately one hundred (100)
foot floating dock to accommodate small pleasure boats for short term dockage. There is a need
to provide suitable docking for small vessels visiting the Bayside Marketplace. This is a year
round use with peak periods during weekends. A preliminary analysis indicates that the cost will
be recuperated within the first eighteen months of usage. The original plans for the construction
of the new marina included a floating dock. Due to lack of funding at the time, the floating
docks were removed from the project.
The Department of Public Works has provided an estimate for the renovations to the facilities
and the floating dock in an amount not to exceed $180,000. The funding source is Capital
Improvement Project No. 413403, entitled Miamarina Dockmaster's Office Renovations.
