training and rehabilitation and other
related activities on approximately
30,000 square feet of land situated on

At the City of Miami Commission meeting of March 18, 1983, Motion
83-209 was passed instructing the City Manager to grant the
American Barge Club the same considerations, conditions, and
restrictions as have been given to other rowing clubs that
function in the vicinity of the Marine Stadium.
The motion also stipulated submittal to the Waterfront Board for
their recommendations. At the Waterfront Board meeting of March
29, 1983, approval was extended to the American Barge Club to
operate in the vicinity of the Marine Stadium.
The City Manager's approval was granted on January 17, 1984 for
the advertisement and solicitation of sealed bids for the leasing
of the approximately 30,000 square feet of property located on
Virginia Key for the purpose of conducting rowing, training and
rehabilitation for the handicapped, holding rowing competitions
and other related activities. This information was transmitted
to the Mayor and the Commission on February 8, 1984.
As a result and pursuant to public notice, by Bid No. 83-84-29,
sealed bids were solicited to lease approximately 30,000 square
feet of land lying Northeasterly of Planet Ocean. In response to
Bid No. 83-84-29, the American Barge Club was the sole respondent
to this bid proposal. The American Barge Club, through its

Master Plan if there would be any conflict with the location and
the use of the property by the American Barge Club.
At the City of Miami Commission meeting of September 20, 19849
Motion 84-1064 was passed accepting the Parks and Recreation
Department's recommendation that the location selected and bid
upon by the American Barge Club is not conflict with the

It is recommended that the City Manager be authorized to enter
into a lease agreement in substantially the form attached hereto,
with the American Barge Club for an approximate sixteen (16) year
lease ending on the first day of December, 2000, at an annual
rental of $100.00 per year for the purpose of conducting rowing
training and rehabilitation activities on approximately 30,000

Motion 84-1064 finalizing the location of the premises.
