Sale of Fill to the
City of North Miami
h EFERENCES :For Commission Meeting
ENCLOSURES :of January 13, 1994
It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the
attached Resolution ratifying the City Manager's agreement to
sell 300,000 cubic yards of fill material from the Virginia Key
stockpile to the City of North Miami for a lump sum in the amount
of $50,000 and further ratifying the City Manager's execution of
the necessary agreement to effectuate said sale.
BACKGROUND
The City of Miami has available at its Virginia Key stockpile a
supply of clean dredged fill material generated from the dredging
of the Outer Bar Cut and the Government Cut Channels and the
Fisher Island turning basin. On October 20, 1993, the City of
North Miami requested 300,000 cubic yards of fill material from
the Virginia Key stockpile without charge for the pending City of
North Miami Landfill Closure which will benefit the public. The
City Attorney of North'Miami spoke with representatives of the
City of Miami Solid Waste Department who verbally committed to
release the 300,000 cubic yards of fill. However, on November
23, 1993 by Resolution No. 93-751, the Miami City Commission
authorized the standardization of methods and rates for the sale
of fill at prevailing market rates which currently range from
between $2.39 to $4.88 per cubic yard, or for in kind
contributions for the benefit of the public.
Nevertheless, due to the nature and urgency of the City of North
Miami's request, on December 20, 1993, the City Manager
negotiated the sale of fill to the City of North Miami for a lump
sum of $50,000 per the attached letter. In order to effectuate
the sale, the City Manager executed an agreement stating, among
other things, that North Miami must pay all costs associated with
any required testing of fill material and that North Miami must
indemnify and hold the City of Miami harmless of any liability it
may incur related to the sale. A fifty percent (50%) deposit of
the purchase price was required at the time of execution, with
the remaining 50% balance due upon termination of the removal of
the fill.
