MAR 1 2 IS FILM .uusert Resolution Emergency Court Resurfacing at Gibson Park AeFtR[Neu, CHCU)GURVst It is recommended that a resolution be passed, by a 4/5th affirmative vote of the City Commission, ratifying, approving and confirming the City Manager's actions in funding that the Refurbishing of Athletic Courts at Gibson Park constituted an emergency, and in authorizing the issuance a purchase order to Agile Courts, Inc., under a current Dade County Contract, for furnishing all labor, materials and equipment for said project to the Parks and Recreation Department in the total proposed cost of $16,200. Under the direction of the Management Initiatives Task Force, Gibson Park has been targeted for fast track physical improvements to be completed by March 30, 1986. Due to the extensive renovation work required on the -Athletic Courts, the surfacing could not be performed by in-house crews of Public Works or Parks and Recreation, as originally planned. The services included all labor, materials and equipment required to refurbish two (2) tennis courts, two (2) 'basketball courts and the racquetball area. Total surface area comprises 4000 sq.ft. These athletic courts were patched, leveled, cleaned, sand blasted, resurfaced with asphaltic concrete, acrylic and color compounds, then restriped. Additionally, the tennis courts were converted from concrete to the new compound, which is a much safer playing surface. The result of this effort produced hazard -free recreational facilities for this popular park in the Black community. Because of the two -week curing time required for the asphaltic concrete, the Parks and Recreation Department needed to proceed immediately with the start of work, so a completed facility could be opened for Easter. Funds for the work are available from the Park Improvement Fund. L Upon review of this situation, a written finding of an emergency was prepared, in accordance with Section 18-52 of the City Code. The Chief Procurement officer was then authorized to issue a purchase order to Agile Courts, Inc. for these services, in the estimated amount of $16,200. This supplier was duly awarded Metropolitan Dade County Contract #06o4-8/a1/86, pursuant to - complete competitive bid procedures. This thereby fullfilled the requirement that "such emergency purchases shall nevertheless be made with such competition as may be practicable under the circumstances." i t � n k , -- CITY OF MIAM1.

FLORIDA INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission d o ka DATE: SUBJECT: MAR 2 0 19W FILE: 5 Resolution: Authorization of Agreement for Collection of $75 Rescue Transport Fee REFERENCES: For City Commission ENCLOSURES: Meeting of March 27, 1986 It is recommended that a Resolution be adopted, in a form found acceptable to the Law Department, authorizing the City Manager to enter into a contractual agreement with Gotlieb's Financial Services (GFS), for the collection of a $75 Rescue Transport User Fee for a period of six months at an estimated cost of $1 ,000, and in no event to exceed $50.000. Pursuant to Ordinance No. 10079, dated February 13, 1986, a User Fee of $75 for use of the Emergency Medical Transportation Service of the Fire, Rescue and Inspection Services Department was established. The User Fee is to be charged to each person receiving such service and shall go into effect on April 1, 1986. Ordinance No. 10079 also provides that the City Manager recommend a procedure for collection of said Transport Fee for the approval of the City Commission. It is therefore recommended that authorization be given to enter into agreement with Gotlieb's Financial Services (GFS) who currently provide the same collection service for Metro -Dade County, as well as MLrtin, Union and Flagler counties. GFS is willing to enter into an agreement such as the current agreement with Metro -Dade County for a period of six (6)months, and will bill and collect, for $3.00 per individual account, the Rescue Transport User Fee. The Service Provider, GFS, wobld receive 30% of the amount collected in excess of 50% of gross billing. The current collection rate for ;r Al 86-233- page 2 Metro -Dade Fire Department is 43$. We anticipate approximately 12,000 transports in 1986 (at collection cost of $3.00 per account) making the cast of this agreement for a period of six (6) months approximately $189000. Projected revenue for the remainder of FY 1985-86, after deduction of collection cost, is estimated to be $167,000. In no event shall compensation to the Service Provider, GFS, exceed $50,000. The proposed fee will be applicable principally to critically ill or injured patients and not to those patients who can be stabilized in the field and can be routinely transported by private ambulance. The Transport Fee will be charged to each patient who is transported to a hospital by a City of Miami Rescue Unit. The collection policy will be based on third party billing wherein Medicare/Medicard insurance companies will be billed directly. No extraordinary collection efforts will be directed towards citizens unable to pay this fee. KEM/
