The best example of Double Taxation existed in 1979 when 21 cities were getting free Metro Fire & Rescue services costing $6.5 million per year for which Miami taxpayers were paying $1.2 million in county taxes to support. These Fire & Rescue services were not available to Miami's citizens. This issue was resolved on September 9, 1980 when the voters created a special taxing district for those who were directly benefiting from the Metro services. It was Miami's leadership that caused this issue to be corrected in favor of most of the taxpayers in Dade County. Double Taxation is a violation of the State Law.

They require expert help in achieving equity and fairness in taxation. 84-16*03 w Taxes are a finite resource and Miami's citizens should not be paying for county services they do not receive. The City of Coral Gables has contracted with Planned Management Corporation from Tampa, Florida to perform the Double Taxation study on behalf of 22 Dade County Cities. This corporation has made Double Taxation studies all over Florida and is considered expert in this field. The conclusion and recommendations are found on page 33 of the attached report. There are eight (8) areas of concern with regard to the way Dade County apportions its Administrative and Overhead costs between the county -wide tax levi and the unincorporated areas. While Dade County has made commendable strides in allocating its budget figures to try to resolve Double Taxation there appears to be no attempt to carry that through to the accounting process. Without validation the county's budget is a plan to avoid Double Taxation without fulfillment. The study is needed nor, to either locate areas of Double Taxation or lay the issue to rest and to vindicate Dade County's Budget and Accounting I'race ss . There is at; least one area of concern that needs auditing. Dade County frr c:e-i.vc.d mi 1.1 ions of dollars from the State in Secondary Road fund:;. These funds are for use on county —wide projects only. Ph4zse iI of this study would provide a better analysis of the u-se of these funds to determine if they have been used appropriately. Another county -wide funding resource is the Decade of Progress Bond issue from which funds have been used to build county roads. Some residential streets have been improved without charge to residents in the unincorporated areas. This service has not been extended to citizens who live in the cities. It should be noted that although the County is not participating financially in this study they have been very cooperative. They have indicated in the past that if Double Taxation can be identified the County would take the appropriate steps to correct the problem. i 84-603 U 0 THE CITY OF CORAL GABLES OFFICE OF CITY HALL MAYOR CORAL GASLE5, FLORIDA March 7, 1984 z ao ..,, cm w f Mr. Howard V.

PLANNED MANAGEMENT CORPORATION (PMC) WAS RETAINED BY THE CITY OF CORAL GABLES (ACTING ON BEHALF OF THE OTHER CITIES AS THE LEAD CITY) TO DETERMINE IF, AND TO WHAT EXTENT, DOUBLE TAX- ATION MAY EXIST IN DADE COUNTY, THE MIAIN PURPOSE OF PHASE I OF THE STUDY WAS TO PERFORM AN ANALYSIS OF THE COUNTY`S BUDGET AND RELATED SERVICE DELIVERY PATTERNS TO THE EXTENT THAT A DETERMINATION COULD BE MADE IF, AND TO WHAT EXTENT, DOUBLE TAXAT I OI4 MAY EXIST, THIS I4ECESS I TATES THE IDENTIFICATION OF THE SERVICES OR PROGRAMS WHERE DOUBLE TW- TION MAY EXIST, FROM THIS INFORMATION, EACH OF THE CITIES COULD THEN DETERMINE IF IT WAS WORTH THE EXPENDITURE OF ADDI- TIONAL FUNDS TO PROCEED WITH PHASE II OF THE STUDY. THIS RE- PORT IS BEING PROVIDED TO ACCOMPLISH THESE OBJECTIVES. LEGAL CONTEXT OF THE ISSl1E THE LEGAL CONTEXT WHICH APPLIES TO THE SUBJECT OF DOUBLE TAXATION HAS AS ITS CONSTITUTIONAL FOUNDATION A 1968 .AMENDMENT TO THE FLORIDA CONSTITUTION, ARTICLE VIII, SECTION 1(H), WHICH PROVIDES: -1- Planned Monapenwnt Corporation 84-603 E rl "TAXES - LIMITATION, PROPERTY SITUATE WITHIN MUNICIPAL- ITES SHALL NOT BE SUBJECT TO TAXATION FOR SERVICES RENDERED BY THE COUNTY EXCLUSIVELY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE PROPERTY OF RESIDENTS IN UNINCORPORATED AREAS," IMPLEMENTING LEGISLATION OF THIS CONSTITUTIONAL PROVISION WAS ENACTED IN 1974 AS SECTION 125,01, F.S., IN PART - - (6) (A) THE GOVERNING BODY OF A MUNICIPALITY OR MUNICIPALITIES BY RESOLUTION, OR HE CITIZENS OF A MUNICI- PALITY OR COUNTY BY PETITION OF 16 PERCENT OF THE QUALIFIED ELECTORS OF SUCH UNIT, MAY IDENTIFY A SERVICE OR PROGRAM REND- ERED SPECIALLY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE PROPERTY OR RESIDENTS IN UNINCORPORATED AREAS AND FINANCED FROM COUNTYWIDE REVENUES AND PETITION THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS TO DEVELOP AN APPROPRIATE MIECHANISM TO FINANCE SUCH ACTIVITY FOR THE ENSUING FISCAL YEAR, i'HICH tlAY BE BY TAXES, SPECIAL ASSESS- MENTS, OR SERVICE CHARGES LEVIED OR 1111POSED SOLELY Uf ON RESI- DENTS OR PROPERTY IN' THE UNINCORPORATED AREA, BY THE ESTA- BLISHMENT OF A MUN;C J VEAL SERVICE TAXING OR' D[i[NIEI I' T UNIT PUBS" UANT I N PARAGRAPH fl OF SUBSECTION' (1) , OR r)Y Rl"IM 1TT I NG THE IDENTIFIED COST 01= SEARVICE' PA)D FROM R:[.VExlUE`.3 RREOUIRE D TO BE EXPENDED OR'!

Planned Management Corporation _2_ • • s EFFECTIVE JULY 1, 1979, SECTION 125,01, F.S., IN PART PROVIDES THAT: . (7) NO COUNTY REVENUES, EXCEPT THOSE DERIVED SPECI- FICALLY FROM OR ON BEHALF OF A MUNICIPAL SERVICE TAXING UNIT, SPECIAL DISTRICT,UNINCORPORATED AREA, SERVICE AREA, OR PROGRAM AREA, SHALL BE USED TO FUND ANY SERVICE OR PROJECT PROVIDED BY THE COUNTY WHERE NO REAL AND SUBSTANTIAL BENEFIT ACCRUES TO THE PROPERTY OR RESIDENTS WITHIN A MUNICIPALITY OR MUNICI- RACITIES. (SEE APPENDIX A) WITH REGARD TO THE TERM "REAL AND SUBSTANTIAL BENEFIT" IT IS GENERALLY DEFINED BY LOCAL GOVERNMENT ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICIALS AND EXPERTS, AND HAS .BEEN INTERPRETED BY THE COURTS, AS MEANING THAT THE SERVICE MiUST PROVIDE S011E RE,4L AND SIGNIFICANT BENEFIT THAT IS 1401' IIERELY ILLUSORY OR I NCONSC'OUENTI AL., OR CONVERSELY, IF THE SERVICE IN .QUESTION WERE TO BE RE!40VED OR DISCONTINIUED, THE RECIPIENTS) OF THE SERVICE WOULD BE AWARE OF ITS REMOVAL. PARALLEL TO THE SECTION 125 PROVISION CONCERNING THE SOURCE OF REVENUES BEING ALIGNED WITH THE BENEFIT OF THE PROGRAMS BEING UNDERWRITTEN BY THOSE REVENUES, SECTION 129.01(2) (B) OF THE FLORIDA STATUTES, EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 1979, HAS PROVIDED THAT THE RECEIPTS AND APPROPRIATIONS DIVISIONS OF THE COUNTY BUDGET REFLECT SEPARATIONS OF COUNTYWIDE FROM NON -COUNTYWIDE REVENUES AND EX- PENDITURES SO THAT IT WOULD BE POSSIBLE FOR ANY PERSON TO INSPECT THE COUNTY BUDGET TO DETERMINE FOR THEMSELVES WHETHER OR NOT THE SECTION 125 PROVISION WAS BEING COMPLIED WITH. -3- Planned Management Corporatlon I r 0 ...(2) (B) BOTH THE RECEIPTS AND APPROPRIATION DIVISIONS SHALL REFLECT THE APPROXIMATE DIVISION OF EXPENDITURES BE- TWEEN COUNTYWIDE EXPENDITURES AND NON -COUNTYWIDE EXPENDI- TURES AND THE DIVISION OF COUNTY REVENUES DERIVED FROM OR ON BEHALF OF THE COUNTY AS A WHOLE AND COUNTY REVENUES DE- RIVED -FROM OR ON BEHALF OF A MUNICIPAL SERVICE TAXING UNIT, SPECIAL DISTRICT, UNINCORPORATED AREA, SERVICE AREA, PRO- GRAM AREA, OR OTHERWISE NOT RECEIVED �3R OR ON BEHALF OF THE COUNTY AS A WHOLE.

CONTINUING GR01'Jli AND DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE UNINCORPORATED PORTIONS OF DADI COUNTY HAS BROUGHT ABOU•r SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN THE DISTRIBUTION OF BOTH POPUUJ ION AND LAND USE, I N 3.970, THERE WERE APPROXIMArELY 1.,267,/92 PEOPf E LIV114G IN DADE COUNTY; OF THESE APPROXIMATELY 537,293 C42%) PEOPLE RESIDED WITHIN THE UNINCORPORATE1 AREAS OF THE COUNTY THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA'S BUREAU OF ECONOM- ICS AND BUSINESS RESEARCH ESTIMATES THAT BY THE END OF 1983 THERE WILL BE APPROXIMATELY 1,732,492 PEOPLE LIVING IN THE COUNTY WITH APPROXIMATELY 857,909 GOP RESIDING WITHIN THE UNINCORPORATED AREAS. THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THESE INCREASES IS MORE DRAMATIC IN TERMS OF THE DOUBLE TAXATION ISSUE IF YOU LOOK AT THE CHANGES IN THE UNINCORPORATED AREA POPULATION, SINCE 1970 THERE HAS BEEN AN OVER-ALL COUNTY POPULATION GROWTH OF APPROXIMATELY 464,700 PEOPLE; manned Management corpot a lco -5- OF THESE APPROXIMATELY 320,616 (69%) PEOPLE HAVE LOCATED WITHIN THE UNINCORPORATED AREA, BASED ON THESE GROWTH TRENDS WHICH HAVE BEEN ESTABLISHED, IT CAN BE ANTICIPATED THAT THE NUMBER OF PERSONS RESIDING WITHIN THE UNINCORPORATED PORTIONS OF FADE COUNTY WILL CONTINUE TO IN- CREASE AT A FASTER RATE THAN THE NUMBER LIVING WITHIN THE MUNICI- PALITIES IN THE PEARS TO COrlE.

AT THE SAME TIME, METRO-llADE IS THE MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT FOR CITIZENS WHO RESIDE IN THE UNIN- CORPORATED AREA, AND IS THUS RESPONSIBLE FOR PROVIDING MUNICIPAL SERVICES FOR APPROXIMATELY ONE-HALF OF THE COUNTY'S POPULATION.

The latter =ou.nt represents those revenues that the County can and does use to fund unincorporated area se-z-71ces. Thus, you can sae that the problem becomes one of detex-mining if the amount of unincorporated area revenues are su;ficient to cover the unincorporated expenditures. The service: listed in the attached resolution are those where, based on our experience in other studies and our pre- liminary analysis in Dade County, double taxation is very likely to exist. These are services and/or programs being provided especially for the benefit of the residents and/or properties in the unincorporated areas of Dade County and which provide no real and substantial benefit to residents and/or prcperties of the municipalities in the County. Whiles we have concluded that the services and/or programs provide no real and substantial benefit it will be necessary to determine if the aforementioned $114 million in unincorporated -avenues is sufficient to cover the cost of these services. This determination is the kev to ascertaining --he level of re- lief (if any) due the cities in Dade Ceknty. in order tc ac- ccmplisn this task :ouch more work will be recsired to ana_vze MAMAQVMNT PLANNINe3.-IRAININd.

It should be pointed out that this will require an amendment to our contract dated April 29, 1983 extending the time frame only. I will notify the City Manager as to the additional time required as soon as I have made that determination. The attached resolution is in accordance with our discussion last week. I have discussed it also with Don Lebrun and Clark Merrill. This resolution is in accordance with the orovisions- of Section 125.01 (6) (a), Florida Statutes. Each municioality that wishes to continue with the research necessary to make the final date.nationas to the existanco (non-existence) of dou- ble taxation in Dade County should adopt the resolution at a Council mccting during thr,, mont1h of Septcaber, if at all possible.

Again, however, it will -,be necessary to review the details of that department's cost records just as with the others, to detarm-ine if the level of funding is sufficient.

HOWEVER, THE PRESENTATION OF A PARATE DOCUMENT SHOULD BE OF SPECIAL SIGNIFICANCE TO THE ��9,000 RESIDENTS QF THE UNINCORPORATED AREA BECAUSE THIS IS THEIR BUDGET.

REVENUES ANY STUDY OF DOUBLE TAXATION IS NOT COMPLETE WITHOUT AN EXTENSIVE REVIEW OF THE SOURCES AND AMOUNTS OF REVENUES IN THE COUNTY'S BUDGET AND TRACING THOSE REVENUES TO THE FUNDS FROM WHICH EXPENDITURES ARE MADE. IN OTHER WORDS IT IS NECESSARY TO " CONNECT it THE COSTS OF SERVICES AS APPROPRIATED WITH THE REVENUES WHICH ARE AVAILABLE TO UNDERWRITE THESE COSTS. BECAUSE OF THE LANGUAGE IN SECTION 125.91 (7), F.S., WHICH PROHIBITS THE EXPENDITURE OF DOLLARS FOR SERVICES OR PROJECTS OF A NON -COUNTYWIDE, NATURE UNLESS THE RE::VE.NUES THAT ARE. UTIL- IZED FOR Tf'sOS E APPROPRIATIONS ARE RECEIVED FROM SUCH 140N-COUNTY- WIDE AREAS, I T IS IMPORTANT TO ESTABLISirl THE COUNTYWIDE NATURE OF EVERY REVENUE PAS IT COMES INTO THE COUNTY, ALSO, IT IS IM- PORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THAT, BECAUSE OF THE PHRASING OF THE ABOVE STATUTE,A REVENUE SOURCE MUST BE PRESUMED TO BE OF A COUNTY- WIDE SOURCE OR COUNTYWIDE NATURE.UNLESS IT CAN BE REASONABLY DEMONSTRATED THAT IT IS RECEIVED FROM OR ON BEHALF OF A NON - COUNTYWIDE AREA OR PURPOSE. A FEW EXAMPLES OF COUNTYWIDE REVENUES ARE: • COUNTYWIDE AD VALOREM TAXES -0 STATE REVENUE SHARING ' • FEDERAL REVENUE SHARING _29_ Planned Managemnt Corporation 84-603 STH AND GTH CENT GASOLINE TAX • CERTAIN GRANT FUNDS • MOSQUITO CONTROL FUNDS FROM THE STATE 9 A PORTION OF THE ONE-HALF CENT SALES TAX ADE COUN6NE REJVES TWO (.2) "POTS" OF STATE REVENUE HARING, AS THE COUNTYWIDE COUNTY GOVERNMENT AND ONE (1) AS THE MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT FOR THE UNIN- CORPORATED AREA, THE FIRST ONE IS CONSIDERED TO BE COUNTYWIDE. A FEW EXAMPLES OF NON -COUNTYWIDE REVENUES ARE: O UNINCORPORATED AREA ONLY AID VALOREM TAXES (MSTU) 6 SPECIAL T A X I NG DISTRICTS REVENUES 0 FRANCHISE'T FEES SOLELY FROM THE UNINCOR- PORATED AREA • UTILITY TAXES COLLECTED SOLELY FROM THE UNINCOR- PORATED AREA, 0 OCCUPATIONAL LICENSES COLLECTED SOLELY FROM THE UNINCORPORATED AREA. • MOBILE HOME LICENSES COLLECTED SOLELY FROM THE UNIN- CORPORATED AREA. 0 USER FEES COLLECTED FROM NON -COUNTYWIDE PROGRAMS AND SERVICES. ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS, AS PREVIOUSLY STATED, IS THE LINKAGE OF THE COUNTYWIDE AND NON -COUNTYWIDE REVENUES TO THE RELATED COUNTYWIDE AND NON -COUNTYWIDE EXPENDI- TURES, WITHOUT THIS LINKAGE IT CANNOT BE DETERMINED WHETHER NON -COUNTYWIDE SERVICES ARE BEING FULLY SUPPORTED BY NON-COUNTY- -30- Pignna0 Mor►mmmant caret adon 84- 603 11 WIDE REVENUES OR WHETHER COUNTYWIDE REVENUES ARE BEING USED TO SUBSIDIZE NON -COUNTYWIDE SERVICES WHICH PROVIDE NO "REAL AND SUBSTANTIAL BENEFIT`° TO THE RESIDENTS AND TAXPAYERS OF THE MUNICIPALITIES, THE PROCESS OF ESTABLISHING THE LINKAGE BETWEEN REVENUES AND EXPENDITURES INVOLVES FIRST, A DETAILED ANALYSIS OF EVERY REVENUE WITHIN EACH FUND TO DETERMINE WHETHER EACH REVENUE IS CONSIDERED TO BE COUNTYWIDE OR NON -COUNTYWIDE. THE NEXT STEP INVOLVES TYING THE f CVENLJES 1-%' I TH I N EACH FUND BACK TO THE EX- PENDITURES 1,11 HIN THL RESf-E:C`fIVE FUNDS TO DETERMINE If THE NON- COUNTYIJIDE REVENUES, ON A FUND BY FUND BASIS, ARE FULLY SUP- PORTING THE TRUE COST OF THE NON -COUNTYWIDE SERVICES, AS MENTIONED IN CHAPTER I OF THIS REPORT SECTION 129,01 (2) (B) OF THE FLORIDA STATUES REQUIRES THAT THE COUNTY SET UP ITS BUDGET IN SUCH A WAY THAT THE RECEIPTS AND APPROPRIATIONS DIVISIONS OF THE BUDGET REFLECT SEPARATIONS OF COUNTYWIDE FROM NON -COUNTYWIDE REVENUES AND EXPENDITURES SO THAT IT WOULD BE POSSIBLE FOR ANYONE TO MAKE A DETERMINATION AS TO WHETHER THE COUNTY WAS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF S125,01 (7), F,S., OUR REVIEW OF THE COUNTY`S 1982-'83 AND 1983-'84 BUDGET BOOKLETS AND A SUBSEQUENT REVIEW OF THE FVIS REPORTS FOR REV- ENUES (REPORT NUMBER 404) AND EXPENDITURES (REPORT NUMBER 103) FOR FY 1982-'83 HAS FOUND THAT THE COUNTY DOES ATTEMPT TO SE- -31- Manwment Corp"jon 84-603 PARATE COUNTYWIDE AND NON -COUNTYWIDE REVENUES WITHIN THE BUDGET BOOKLETS, AS PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED COUNTY STAFF TOLD PMC STAFF THAT THE REVENUE AMOUNTS IDENTIFIED FOR THE NON -COUNTYWIDE SER- VICES ARE ESTIMATES AS TO THE AMOUNTS THAT WOULD BE NEEDED AND NO ATTEMPT IS MADE TO TRACK THE NON -COUNTYWIDE EXPENDITURES ON A MONTHLY BASIS. THUS, THERE ARE NO BUDGETARY REPORTS AVAILABLE TO MAKE AN EASY DETERMINATION AS TO THE COUNTY'S COMPLIANCE WITH S125.01 (7), F.S.. THE COUNTY's FAMIS REPORTS PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED COMMINGLE COUNTYWIDE AND NON -COUNTYWIDE REVENUES AND EXPENDITURES WITHIN THE SAME FUNDS !° H I CH MAKES IT EXTREMIELY DIFFICULT TO TRACE SPECIFIC REVENUES TO $PECIFIC EXPENDITURES, SUCH A DETERMINATION WILL REQUIRE A MiUCH MORE DETAILED ANALYSIS OF TIE REVENUE AND EXPENDITURE REPORTS AND RELATED DEPARTME14TAL RECORDS WITHIN THOSE DEPARTMENTS DISCUSSED IN THE PREVIOUS CHAPTER OF THIS RE- PORT. -32- Menepement Corporation 84--603 V. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS PHASE I OF THE DOUBLE TAXATION STUDY IN DADE COUNTY WAS INTENDED TO DETERMINE IF, AND TO WHAT EXTENT, DOUBLE TAXATION MAY EXIST. THIS REQUIRED THAT PMC MEET WITH CERTAIN COUNTY PER- SONNEL AND TO GATHER NUMEROUS DOCUMENTS (SEE APPENDIX C) FOR RE- VIEW AND ANALYSIS. THIS PROCESS HAS RESULTED IN THE IDENTIFI- CATION OF BASICALLY EIGHT (S) AREAS INHERE THE COUNTY CLEARLY PER- FORMS NON -COUNTYWIDE SERVICES WHICH PROVIDE NO `REAL AND SUB- STANTIAL BENEFIT" TO THE RESIDENTS AND TAXPAYERS OF THE MUNICI- PALITIES. THESE AREAS ARE; 1. ADtiINIS-1`1-ATIVE/OVERHEAD SERV CES OR PROGRAMS SUPPQ RT- ING AND/OR PROVIDED FOR ALL HUNTY DIVISIONS AND UE- PARTMENTS, Z.

THE COUNTY IS NOT, IN OUR OPINION, IN COM- PLIANCE WITH S129,01 (2) (B) F.S. FOR IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO DETER- MINE THE LINKAGE BETWEEN REVENUES AND EXPENDITURES AS REQUIRED BY THE STATUTE.
