Odio City Manager DATE FILE SUBJECT City Commission Agenda Item REFERENCES ENCLOSURES It is respectfully recommended that the attached ordinance be adopted amending the Code of the City of Miami, Florida, as amended, Chapter 31, Article II, entitled "Schedule of Occupational License Taxes", by clarifying the definition of the exhibitors classification and providing for a lower tax when the event is held in a facility owned by the City of Miami; continuing a repealer provision and a severability clause; and providing an effective date. BACKGROUND: Chapter 31 of the City Code requires any business, profession or occupation operating or engaging in the City of Miami to procure occupational licenses from the City of Miami The Finance Department recommends that the "Exhibitor" classification in the occupational license chapter be clarified to explicitly allow sales of product in addition to allowing exhibiting or displaying products for sale or to take order to sell products. A reduced rate of 50% of the regular rate is being recommended for exhibitors using City of Miami owned facilities. State Statutes do not allow increases in municipal occupational licenses. At the first reading of this ordinance the City Commission requested a comparison of the rates for the Exhibitor license to those for retail merchants. The "Merchants Retail License" is based on value of inventory with a base rate of $47.50 for the first $1,000 of merchandise and $5.50 for each additional $1,000 or fractional part thereof. Attached "Occupational Licenses Comparison" indicates that the average cost of the annual "Merchants Retail License" is $280.00 and the mean (half of the licenses are lower than this amount) is $102.50. The existing "Exhibitor License" is $75 per day, with the proposed ordinance reducing the daily rate to $37.50 for events held at City -owned facilities. �y7 10991 Occupational Licenses Comparison EXHIBITOR LICENSE License cost: Event at Regular Rate City Facility Daily $ 75.00 $ 37.50 Two days 150.00 75.00 Seven days 525.00 262.50 Fifteen days 1,125.00 562.50 MERCHANTS RETAIL LICENSE (Based on 3,486 licenses issued in FY92) Base rate or lowest fee Highest actual fee Average fee Mean fee Licenses over $10,000 Licenses between $1,000 and $9,999 Licenses between $500 and $999 Licenses between $100 and $499 Licenses under $100 Total Annual License $ 47.50 28,642.00 280.00 102.50 Number of Licenses 6 190 340 1,230 1.720 3,486 CITY OF MIAMI, FLORIDA 15 INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM TO Honorable Mayor and Members DATE '� L J i�2 FILE of the City Commission t SUBJECT City Commission Agenda Item FROM REFERENCES Cesar H.
