ENCLOSURES:
Pursuant to your memorandum of August 3, 1995, we reviewed the transcript you
provided for Item #91 (Resolution No. 94-567, adopted July 13, 1995), concerning the proposed
millage rate for the City of Miami for Fiscal Year beginning October 1, 1995 and ending
September 30, 1996. Thus, we are in complete accord with your findings that the Finance
Director did clearly state on the record that "... we are recommending the same millage as of
Fiscal Year `95, which is 11.7055".
The Resolution that you presently have in your possession reflects those rates submitted to
this Office by the Budget Division prior to the distribution of the July 13th City Commission
Agenda Packet. We were unaware that the rates were to be modified at the Meeting so the
signed -off legislation was routinely forwarded to your office for execution, Consequently, we are
transmitting the attached modified original Resolution which reflects the computations as
presented for the record at the City Commission Meeting.

INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO A. Guinn Jones, III DATE : August 3,1995 FILE
City Attorney
SUBJECT : Modification to City of Miami
Millage Resolution
FROM Walter J. Foeman REFERENCES : R-95-567
City Clerk
ENCLOSURES : (3 pages)
This memorandum is being written to seek clarification surrounding the passage of agenda item
91 (R 95-567 -- compute proposed millage rate for the City of Miami for the fiscal year beginning
October 1, 1995 and ending September 30, 1995 [FY 96]). Attached hereto is a copy of the
minutes from said proceedings pertaining to the above -cited issue.
Contained in said excerpt, the Finance Director clearly states that there would be no increase in
the total millage rate for FY 96 (11.7055). However, he did not mention on the public record
that the total millage rate and the debt service should be changed in the legislation. There is no
discussion concerning the issue of debt service. In the prepared resolution which has now been
executed on file in our office, the total millage rate as contained in said legislation is 11.8599,
and not 11.7055. Additionally, the debt service appearing in said legislation is 2.2604. This also
needs to be changed in the legislation. If you were to add the general operating (9.5995) plus
the correct debt service portion (2.1060), it would equal the correct total millage rate as was
given by the finance director (11.7055).
Chief Deputy Clerk Sylvia Lowman, of my staff, In a recent conversation with Revenue
Management Administrator Dipak Parekh, was informed that the debt service was incorrect and
it should be 2.1060.
In closing, we respectfully request clarification from you regarding this matter, and guidance as
to the feasibility of amending said instrument reflecting the correct proposed millage rate.
