HomeMy WebLinkAboutItem #08 - Discussion ItemPROPOSED CITY OF MIAMI NEIGHBORHOOD ECONOMIC
DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM
The City of Miami is recommending the establishment of a new
comprehensive approach to neighborhood economic development.
This multi -faceted approach entails the; establishment of a
Citywide Local Development Corporation,/ technical assistance.
by the City of Miami Planning Department and the Department of
Trade and Commerce Development and Community Based Economic
Development Organizations within designated C.D. Target Areas to
perform neighborhood outreach functions. This approach was based
on local analysis and the recommendation of a nationally, recog-
nized consultant in the field of economic development.
Funding for this project will be from the 6th year City of Miami
Community Development Block Grant. It is proposed that $250,000. will
be utilized for the establishment of the Citywide Local Develop-
ment Corporation and that C.D. Target Areas be permitted to
allocate up to $50,000 of their 6th year target area allocation
for the establishment of community based organizations (this will
require the reallocation of funds from a previously recommended
project).
Certain operational aspects of this program are currently being
formulated which will ensure Target Area representation on the
policy board of the Citywide Local Development Corporation.
1) Citywide Local Development Corporation
The Citywide Local Development Corporation would function
as a quasi -public delegate agency under contract with the
City of Miami through the Department of Trade and Commerce
Development to provide: a) business development and loan
packaging, b) technical and managerial assistance, and
c) related neighborhood commercial revitalization activities
in selected CD Target Areas. Basic functions of the cor-
poration will be to identify and develop business opportu-
nities, formulate an annual program plan based upon identified.,
opportunities, package business deals, provide technical
assistance to businesses, work with merchants and neighborhood
groups, and develop financial programs and mechanisms to
support business development. In short, the corporation will
be a flexible financing mechanism with a business develop-
ment planning, packaging and technical assistancestaff capa-
bility. The corporation will implement a financial assistance
program designed to encourage business and economic devel-
opment projects within the City of Miami by securing a greater
utilization and coordination of existing financing programs (e.g.
SBA 502 Loan Program, EDA direct loans and loan guarantees,
SBA 301 (d) SBIC/MESBIC Program, etc.) as well by development
innovative and creative financing techniques designed to generate
a maximum degree of leverage with private sector resources.
Community based organizations Will refer clients to the Cor-
poration for services listed above.
The Citywide Local Development Corporation will be a tool
utilized to integrate business development efforts and will
provide the basis for a meaningful partnership between the
public and private sectors in support of citywide and neigh-
borhood economic development activities. The principal function
of the corporation is the facilitation of business development
in the City through the provision of financial assistance to
entrepreneurs.
2. The Department of Trade and Commerce Development
The Department of Trade and Commerce Development will serve
as the City's contracting agent for the Citywide Local
Development Corporation and for community based organizations
in designated CD target areas. Department of Trade and Com-
merce Development will, act as the' City's primary business and
economic development agent, with responsibility for economic
development activities throughout /the City and the ability
to coordinate development activities at various levels.
3. The Planning Department - Economic Planning Section
Specific neighborhood commercial revitalization studies will
be carried out by the Planning Department. Business Develop-
ment Program Activities for which the Economic Planning Unit
will hold responsibility include: conduct a detailed mar-
ket study to determine the specific market area and the
amount and type of commercial space which could be supported
by available disposable income; assist Citywide Development
Corporation in developing a Business Development Plan and
implementation strategy, focusing on private reinvestment/
investment and joint development projects; conduct an en-
vironment and design study of physical improvements projects,
zoning districts and opportunity areas; produce an Economic
Atlas for the City of Miami; formulate a comprehensive
economic development strategy for the City. Provide techni-
cal assistance to the Community based organizations which will
be established in designated C.D. Target Areas.
4. Community Based Organizations
The Community Based Organizations will coordinate local
economic development efforts at the community level. They
will provide neighborhood outreach services for the Citywide
Local Development Corporation, assist in the formation and/or
strenghtening of local merchants' associations, business
recruitment and promotion, monitoring of public services to
the area and provide referral services to other federal and
county programs that are aimed at economic revitalization.

5. A majority of the city's population is either of Cuban or other
Spanish origin, or black. In 1975 an estimated 50 percent of
city residents were Hispanic. An additional 97,100 persons,
or 27 percent of the total, were black. Between 1970 and 1975,
the numbers of Hispanic and black residents in the city
increased by an average of almost 10,000 per year, while the
non -Hispanic white population declined by almost 6,000 per year.,
(page I-A-5)
6. Comparable statistics for the county reveal a somewhat smaller
but still significant (33.6 percent) share of total 1975 resi-
dents were of Hispanic background and 16 percent were black.
Since 1975, the distribution of county population by racial
and ethnic background has remained relatively constant (page I-A-6).

POPULATION
The following tables summarize recent population trends and
characteristics for the City of Miami, Dade County, and the Miami
Economic Region:II Included in this section are tabular materials on:
numbers of inhabitants, racial and ethnic characteristics, age distri-
bution of the population base, and components of population change
(migration; natural increase).
Key findings emerging from these data are summarized below:
1. The Miami Economic Region -- consisting of Dade, Broward,
and Palm Beach Counties continuously gained population
over the last two decades, going from 1.5 million in 1960
to nearly 3 million in 1978, for an average annual increase
of nearly 81,200, or 5.4 percent during the 18-year interval.
Indicative of the area's appeal, nearly one-half of the
population growth has occurred since 1970. (pages I-A-3 and I-A-4)
2. Since 1960, 38 percent of the region's gains occurred in
Dade County, which registered a 1978 population of nearly
1.5 million. Dade captured only 31 percent of regional
increases post-1970, however, as continued suburganization
enhanced growth in both Broward and Palm Beach Counties.
(page I-A-4)
3. Increasing shares of Dade County growth have been due to
in -migration, with almost 90 percent of population change
since 1973 from this source. Thus, in spite of continuing
movement of many regional residents to Broward and Palm Beach
Counties, Dade remains an attractive relocation destination.
(page I-A-9)
4. Miami's proportion of regional population has been declining
since 1960. The city's share of Dade County population, for
example, declined from 31 percent in 1960 to 26 and 23 percent,
respectively, in 1970 and 1978. In absolute terms, however,
the city managed to sustain population growth, with the numbers
of residents increasing from nearly 334,900 in 1970 to almost
344,400 in 1978. (pages I-A-3 and I-A-4)

EMPLOYMENT
This section is divided into four primary categories:
(1) labor force and unemployment in Dade County;
(2) industrial distribution of employment in Dade County;
(3) occupational distribution of employment in Dade
County; and
(4) selected characteristics of key industrial categories
in Miami and Dade County in 1972.
Reliable estimates of labor force, unemployment, and employment for
the City of Miami are not available on a comprehensive basis. The 1972
Census of Business provides some indication of the City's share of
metropolitan area employment levels, sales levels, and numbers of
establishments in certain industrial categories, as of that year. Until
the 1977 Census of Business is finally released, more recent City
employment characteristics must be inferred from County trends.
With respect to recent patterns of Dade County labor force and
employment and associated implications for the City of Miami, the follow-
ing conclusions can be drawn:
1. The civilian labor force of the County has been increasing
steadily since 1970, rising from 542,000 in that year to
688,000 in 1978. Rates of unemployment, which increased to
12.6 percent in 1975, have now fallen to 7 percent, still
somewhat above rates recorded in the early 1970's. In
the City, unemployment rates even higher than 7 percent are
likely. (page I-B-4)
2. The industrial distribution of non-agricultural employment in
the county has shifted somewhat since 1960, reflecting local
as well as regional and national trends. For example, the
services sector increased from 20.7 percent of all non-
agricultural employment in 1960 to 24.0 percent in 1978.

7. As of 1978, employment in Dade County was roughly 50 percent in
white collar categories, 34 percent in blue collar categories
and 15 percent in service categories. This occupational profile
was only marginally changed from the 1970 distribution. While
more recent data of this type are not available for the City,
all indications are that the distribution of Miami employment
by occupational category is also essentially the same now as it
was in 1970. (page I-B-14)

COMMUTATION PATTERNS (WORK -HOME TRIPS)
Sample census data on commutation patterns within Dade County
for 1970 and 1975 provide an indication of the numbers of jobs in various
sub -areas that are filled by county residents.
As of 1970, an estimated 170,000 Dade County residents were employed
in Miami. An estimated 21,000, or 13.6 percent, of these were employed
within the CBD. Of the 175,500 in City workers in that year, 72,800 also
lived within the City limits. (page I-C-3)
Less detailed data for 1975 indicate that an estimated 152,000 County
residents worked in Miami and that 67,000 of these, or 44 percent, also
lived in the City. (page I-C-2)

1. Industrial Development
LAND USE DEVELOPMENT
Industrial', office, retail, and housing development information (with
emphasis on downtown and other parts of the City) set forth in this section,
include the following:
Industrial Development
Available information concerning industrial development in Miami, Dade
County, and the Miami Economic Region (reflected primarily in selected data
compiled and graciously released by Coldwell Banked"indicates that:
1. Dade County is the primary regional location for industrial
users, accounting for 73 percent of those surveyed in Dade,
Broward, and Palm Beach Counties. (page I-D-5)
2. From 1970 to 1977, average demand for industrial space, from
users over 10,000 square feet, was estimated at 3.7 million
per year in the three -county region. (page I-D-8)
3. A full 95.6 percent of this demand was generated internally,
either from new indigenous businesses or from relocation/
expansion needs. Moreover, of the 1.3 million square feet
generated from users coming into the region, 36.5 percent was
generated from within the State of Florida. (pages-I-D-8 and I-D-9)
4. In Dade, large concentrations of industrial space exist in
the Opa-Locka, Hialeah, and central unincorporated county,
areas. The City of Miami accounts for about 10 percent of total
County building area for industrial space users occupying more
than 10,000 square feet. (pages I-D-18 and I-D-14)
5. Major city industrial concentrations include the Biscayne
Boulevard north corridor, Biscayne. Boulevard South, and the
Civic Center area. These districts; are characterized by heavy
rail usage, substantial percentages of owner -occupied structures,
and high land coverage ratios, as-ccomparedIto-1ther industrial
locations in the County. (P 9 ))
1/ These data may not be fully comprehensive since small (under 10,000
square feet) industrial space users are excluded. Nevertheless,
they are indicative of the types of area -wide industrial activity.

Office Development
Pages I-D-20 to I-D-27 present data on current and historical levels of
office development in selected portions of the City of Miami and Dade County.
Inventory information, and tenant, rental and vacancy characteristics of area
office development are provided. A list of major office buildings pro-
posed for downtown Miami, Brickell Avenue, Coral Gables, and other Dade
County locations is also included.
The following conclusions are derived from these tabular materials:
1 Miami contains a significant proportion (54 percent) of the
County's private, multi -tenant office space. As of faTT, -
1978, moreover, the largest proportion of government office
space in the County was also located in the City. Miami's
position, however, weakened somewhat during 1972-78 when it
captured only 43 percent of all regional private, multi -tenant
office construction, During this period, substantial office
space was built in suburban locations primarily including the
Palmetto Expressway corridor and other outlying portions of
Dade County. Ease of access, land availability, lower land
prices, and availability of labor force were key to this out-
ward movement. (page I-D-24)
2. Within the City, the downtown area and the Brickell Avenue
corridor are the major locations of office space development,
with an inventory of 3.36 million and 1.3 million square feet,
respectively. Occupancies in these areas are extremely high
at present and rents have been rising rapidly, attesting to
their continued attractiveness. (pages I-D-20 to I-D-22)
3. In response to current firm demand, renewed interest in down
town, and proposed transit improvements, major increments
of private and public office space are proposed in the City
Including the Ball_Point Plaza and Southeast Bank Building
projects, as well as Government Center, up to 4.7 million square
feet of office space are proposed for downtown Miami with an
additional 1.15 million square feet advanced for Brickell
Avenue. Taken together, these two areas account for as much
as 85 to 90 percent of all major building office space pro-
posed for Dade County, underscoring the strength and vitality
of Miami as a financial and service center. (pages I-D-25.to
I-D-27)
I-D-2
Retail Activity
The most recent comprehensive data on retail sales in the City are
reported in the 1972 Census of Retail Trade, Until publication of the
1977 update of these data, it is difficult to accurately assess the City's
share of County retail activity. Inferences can be drawn, however, from
the 1972 data, coupled with more recent County sales trend information
as summarized below:
1. In 1972, retail sales in the City of Miami totaled $1.3 billion
(expressed in 1978 dollars). This level represented a 30 percent
share of total County sales during that same year. 0f parti-
cular importance, however, is the fact that the City captured
a 31.3 percent share of total County sales of shoppers goods
(general merchandise, apparel and accessories, and furniture),
thus maintaining a strong position in the regional compara-
tive shopping sector. (pages I-D-28 and I-D-29)
2. The Miami Central Business District accounted for 17 percent
of total retail sales in the City in 1972. More importantly,
the CBD accounted for a significant 27.5 percent of total
shoppers goods sales in that year, againunderscoring the
City's position -- and particularly the Central Business.
District's role -- as a comparison goods shopping center. (page I-0-29)
3. Since 1972, retail sales in Dade County have increased an average
of 4 percent per year in constant 1978 dollar. terms. Much of this
increase, however, was in the food category. Comparison goods
sales increased by only 2 percent per year on average during
this time interval, reflecting a loss to outlying areas --
particularly Broward County -- for shoppers goods sales. These
data would tend to indicate that the City (and the Miami CBD
in particular) has lost some of its predominance in the
regional retail trade sector. (pages I-D-34 and I-D-35)
Housing Development
As an indicator of recent trends vis-a-vis other Dade County locations,
Miami housing permit data have been compiled. (page I-D-•36)
I-D-3
According to this information, the City's share of County housing
development decjined during the 1970's primarily due to multi -family
construction trends. Early in the decade, reflecting a boom in con-
dominium development, the City captured up to 32 percent of total
County construction.
Following the mid-1970's recession, however, the City's share of
County housing development declined, dropping to as low as 6.6 percent
in 1977. Throughout the 1970-1978 period, Miami's share of Dade single
family home construction remained rela lovely constant at a.nominal 1.5 to 3
percent share.
Downtown Development
As an indication of continued downtown strength and viability, (and
the increasing attractiveness to public and private sector development of
this area) a list of projects proposed for downtown has been compiled.
This inventory, presented on pages I-D-37 to I-0-44, includes nearly 40
separate projects, with an estimated total investment of more than S1,6
billion.

II. KEY SECTORS OF THE MIAMI AND MIAMI AREA ECONOMY
•
I
•
A. Banking
BANKING
This section -- encompassing both domestic and international
banking -- dIscribes the number, type, location, assets and liabilities
of Miami financial institutions as well as those in selected comparable
cities.
Principal emphasis is on commercial banks, the primary source
of development and mercantile financing, and to a lesser extent on savings
and loans.
While mortgage and insurance companies provide a great deal of long-
term industrial financing, their local resource base cannot be precisely
quantified. Mortgage companies, for example, serve as brokers and in
effect assist in the utilization of local bank, savings and loan and
credit union resources. Insurance companies -- in their turn -- draw
from a national financial base and, as a result, the location of their
funds is not pertinent.
Key aspects of Miami's role as a major financial center follow:
Commercial Banks
Commercial banks provide a wide range of services, including check-
ing and demand accounts, and short-term loans to businesses and indi-
viduals. While large, national companies considering locating in Miami
would most likely have their own financial contacts in New York or
elsewhere, smaller companies are more dependent on local resources.
Thus, the existence of a large and viable commercial banking community
is key to the growth and vitality of the Miami economy.
II-A-1
In that respect, the strength of Miami commercial banks, reflected in
large balances of deposits available for potential loans, underscores the
viability of the local banking community.
- Deposits in Dade County commercial banks totaled
close to $7.02 billion in 1978, an 8.2 percent
increase over 1977 deposits. By comparison,
Jacksonville's total deposits of $2.13 billion
in 1978 was down 1.2 percent from the City's 1977
total. Miami also compared favorably with the
npageona.1 increase of 7.8 percent for 1977-1978.
- In 1977, per capita deposits in_Miami were
$4,421 compared to Jacksonville's $3,039 and Atlanta's
$3,746.1/
- Miami's ratio of deposits to gross loans in 1978 of
57 percent was less than Jacksonville's 64 percent
and considerably less than the U.S. average of 78
percent. These figures lend credence to the conser-
vative reputation of Miami banking institutions.
Miami gross loans,for example, are 44.2 percent of
their assets compared to 55.3 percent for all U.S.
banks.
The pattern of loans by type of Miami banks is generally
similar to that of Jacksonville banks and U.S..
banks as a total. The greatest proportion of these,
15.8 percent, are to individuals, followed by 13 percent
to real estate. For the United States as a total, real
estate received 18.5 percent of the loans with 15.8
percent going to individuals. In all three cases
commercial and industrial loans are third; however,
`p ges aaAthe14 hapiSit ropirtion of these -- 12.6 percent.
Most of the banking activity in the metropolitan area
is located within the city limits. Twenty-six of Dade
County's 37 banks have offices in Miami. Nineteen of
those are headquarter facilities. Banks in the City
have 66.8 percent of the deposits. There is no restriction,
however, on where these resources may be used. (page II-A-9)
- Banking is a growth industry. The number of commercial
bank employees has gone up by 1,200 since 1975, a 13.5
percent increase. (page II-A-30)
1/ Based on June 1978 deposits and 1977 population figures.
II-A-2
The'second major conclusion which can, be drawn from the banking data
is a reaffirmation of Miami's international banking reputation.
There are four types of Miami banking institutions involved in inter-
national banking: domestic banks with international departments; foreign -
owned domestic banks, foreign bank representative offices or agencies;
and Edge Act affiliates of domestic banks based in other states.
The following salient points can be made in that respect:
- Miami has more banks in each of these categories than
other Florida cities, New Orleans or Atlanta. Miami
has 14 foreign banks compared to none .in New Orleans
and 12 in Atlanta. Miami has 14 Edge Act affiliates
compared to none in Atlanta and two in New Orleans.
And, Miami has 12 domestic banks with active inter-
national departments compared to less than half that
number in comparable Florida cities, Atlanta and New
Orleans. (pages II-A-20 to II-A-29)
- The number of Edge Act banks and the level of their
activity has expanded rapidly since Miami's first Edge
Act corporation, Citizens and Southern International Bank.
opened in 1969, The annual growth of total liabilities
and capital accounts in Edge Act banks peaked between
1973 and 1974 at 72.9 percent. By June 1977, the semi-
annual growth rate had stabilized at 7.3 percent.
Unfortunately more up-to-date information is unavailable.
- The ratio of foreign loans to other types of assets
of local Edge Act banks is growing. In June 1977,
foreign loans were 40.3 percent of total assets compared
to 37 percent in December 1976..(page II-A-26)
The future of international banking in Miami will depend, to some
extent, on possible changes in the U.S. International Banking Act.
Proposed modifications are expected to improve the competitiveness of
Edge Act corporations compared to foreign banks. Were these changes
initiated,Edge Act banks would also likely become more competitive with
local banks.
II-A-3
Savings and Loan Associations
Savings and loans are the major depository for saving accounts
in Dade County and similarly provide most of the residential mortgage
loans. Deposits in savings and loans have been increasing by an average
of $865.5 million per year since 1974. (page II-A-13)
Savings and loans have also been growing as an industry. While
the number of savings and loans association in Dade County has remained
at 20 for several years, branch offices have grown from 96 in 1974 to
147 in 1978. (page II-A-13)

Growth in foreign deposits and loans, 14 Edge.act
banks now in Miami (two added this year). Twelve
Miami banks have active international departments
and there are 13 foreign banks in'Miami and Miami
Beach. New state law allowing intra county branch-
ing has resulted in many banks consolidating, including
Southeast Banks on July second. Holding companies
are becoming redundant.
Any approval of national branching will increase
competition for Miami's local banks; greater
emphases on foreign loans rather than deposit -
taking. Possible diversification to Europe and
Asia. Federal regulations on foreign banks could be
interpreted to allow them to take domestic deposits,
making them more competitive.
Downtown Miami, Especially 1 Biscayne Tower, Brickell
Avenue, Flagler and First and Second Avenues.
Outside the City: Evenly scattered; no concentration in any one area.
Major Locational
Determinents:
ito

and its Latin tourism and trade have promoted in-

1/ An Edge Act Bank is an international subsiiiary of a domestic bank.
Under the Edge Act, a U.S. bank is allowed to establish offices
in other states for the sole purpose of financing international
trace and finance. Euye Act banks can take foreign deposits but
not domestic ones. They can make both foreign and domestic loans.
The act is now being revised in a way expected to increase the
number of Edge Act banks. Proposed revisions which will probably
be approved include reducing capital requirements and allowing
Edges to handle all banking business (i.e., can have demand
accounts) for companies whose buiness is two thirds international -
related.

AMIMMINIP
TRADE AND TRANSPORTATIOM
.Past trends pertaining to Miami international trade and transportation
services and current levels of activity (freight and passenger) at the
Port of Miami and Miami International Airport are set, out here.
Limited data availability, coupled with the dynamic nature of the
local trade sector; reduces the ability. to fully quantify and analyze
recent patterns in these areas.
With respect to retail trade, for example, information is available
only for Dade County as a whole; comprehensive information on City retailing
will not be released until publication of the 1977 Census of Retail Trade
late this year. And even these data will not allow treatment of the.
impact of Latin shoppers in the City,. a very recent and important factor
in the local trade sector.
In the area of international trade, similar data problems are encountered.
Accurate information about the origin of manufactured goods leaving
Miami terminals or goods manufactured in Miami for shipment abroad
not available. The United States Department of Commerce, the most
comprehensive and reliable source of information on the movement cf commodities
in international trade, maintains only "pass through" statistics (by
gross value of shipments). There is, as yet, no effective way to identify
goods made in Miami for export if they are shipped out through another
customs district. Similarly, goods made in Miami and exported
through the Miami Customs District (32) are undifferentiated from goods
made outside Miami if they are transported here and then exported through
the same customs district. This restricts the identification of commodities
traded specifically in the Miami market (either imported hers or local use
or made locally for export), but it does indicate which countries are Miami's
II-B-1
major trading partners. Puerto Rico, however, which purchased 3800 million
worth of Florida goods in 1976, is not included in U.S. Cepartment of
Commerce records because of its Commonwealth status.
Very recent and detailed data on international trade is important to
a full understanding of the industry and of the Miami economic base due to
the rapid growth of this sector in recent years (exports increased 214 percent
during the 1970-1976 interval).
Several major conclusions can be drawn, however, from the available
data.
Retail Trade (pages II-B-6 to II-B-8)
1. The retail trade industry is a major employment sector of the
Miami economy. The City -- and notably the Central Business
District -- functions as a major nucleus of retail, particularly for
comparison goods, opportunities, within the region. In the
County as a whole, over 118,600 persons are employed in
retailing.
2. Latin visitors comprise a significant source of demand for
• City retailing activities, spending an estimated 31,000
each per visit.
3. A possible recession, resulting in reduced consumer purchas-
ing power, may inhibit growth in domestic retail markets
both at the national and local levels. Moreover, continued
decentralization of the local retail industry is expected,
particularly in view of rapidly rising fuel costs and
continuing population suburbanization.
•
Therefore, the continued strength and vitality of the Central
area and City-wide retailing rests on specialized
merchandising oriented to local resident, worker and
visitor markets.
Transportation (pages II-B-9 to II-B-18)
1. The Port of Miami employs approximately 1,200-1,500 people
and has an estimated impact on the Miami area of 5500
million. The volume of tonnage handled at the Port has.
grown from one-half million in 1969 to 1.9 million in 1973,
and passenger loading rose from 200,000 to one million over
the same time frame.
II-B-2
1
2. The Port is located directly adjacent to the Miami C30 and
therefore has a large impact on the City. Port related
activities account for a significant number of jobs within
the City in such areas as shipping, trucking, and distribu-
tion classes. These jobs extend beyond the Port itself
and reflect the larger distribution role played by the City
for both the metropolitan area and, more broadly, South-
eastern Florida.
3. Proposed 5220 million improvements will expand nearly all
Port facilities by the year 2000. These improvements are
expected to support increased levels of Port activity
by the end of the century. Based on a multiplier of 2.5,
the,Port is expected to generate 53.8 billion per year in
Dade County by the year 2000.
4. The Miami International Airport, although located at the
fringe of the City, exerts a strong influence on City
business activities. An estimated 35,000 jobs are directly
related to the Airport. An additional 35,000 jobs are
created indirectly. The total economic impact of the
facility is estimated at S3 billion annually.
5. A 555 million expansion of the Airport, including a new
customs and immigration area which will effectively
triple the amount of space available for processing
international arrivals, is already underway, and other
improvements are planned.
5. The Miami Free Zone, now just Setting underway at a Cade
County location about 4 miles west of the Airport, combined
with the 525 million World Trade Center planned for down-
town, will further strengthen trade activities at both
the Airport and the Seaport.
International Trade (pages II-B-9 to II-B-18)
While many of the import/export activities associated with the Airport
are being attracted to locations outside the City of Miami, a si.niicant
level of these functions are locating within City limits. In addi:ip
support banking,. insurance and related activities are frequently lcca et.
in the City, particularly in the downtown-3rickell area. Increased Air-
port operations in the future will strengthen the City.'s role in this
respect.
II-B-3
Specifically, the following major points can be made with regard to
international trade activities in the Miami area and in Ether competitive
locations:
1. The value of exported goods from Customs District 52 exceeds
that of imports, due largely to activity at the Port of
Miami. Examination of Port records shows that the volume of
high value export tonnage exceeds that for import cargo in
Miami by a margin of over 55 percent. This is not true for
the other area ports. '(Port Everglades, the largest and
deepest port in the region, is engaged primarily in the
off-loading of imported petroleum.) Seventy percent of :he
Port of Miami's cargo business is exports; exports value
over imports is 32.25/pound.
2. Major exports from Customs District 52 consist of machinery,
transportation equipment, electrical machinery, textiles,
clothing, and medical equipment and mechanical products.
(Notably absent are the bulk shipments which characterizes
other Florida ports, especially Tampa and Jacksonville.).
3. The 10 major commodities which represent over 50 percent of
the volume handled by the Port of Miami are machinery,
food and kindred products; stone/clay/vitreous and glass,
steel products, fabricated items and paper products.
(These are primarily high value manufactured products.)
Port of Miami,lea"ds Florida ports in dollar value of cargo.
4. The major markets for South Florida exports are in
Latin America, and 33 percent of all South Florida
exports go to Venezuela, largely in the form of
manufactured. goods. Thirty-one percent of all U.S.
exports to Latin America in 1978 went through South
Florida terminals as compared to 20 percent in 1972.
5. Exports from the Miami Customs District to the Bahamas,
the Dominican Republic and Jamaica (second to Latin
America as principal markets) consist mainly of
manufactured goods shipped by air.
6. Current real growth rates for the international trade
sector of South Florida's economy are estimated at 13.7
percent annually. While 32 percent of Dade County firms
engaged in export by air in 1976, there was little
associated value added in the local economy as most of
the commodities were in transit ("pass through".)
7. Exports from the Tampa Customs District to Japan, 3razil,
India, Pakistan,'and the Middle East are primarly phosphate,
although Japan is also a large purchaser of citrus.
II-B-4
8. Phosphates and related products account for nearly half
the total tonnage (approximately 20 million tons) moved
through the Port of Tampa.. (It is the number one
phosphate exporting port In the world.) Foreign automobiles
(particularly from Japan) enter the U.S. more frequently
through Jacksonville than any other port.
9. Exports from both Miami and Tampa to Europe are relatively.
small, but show steady growth. Potential growth in European
markets (due in large part to the declining value of t^e
dollar) for South Florida goods is excellent and has ;,n y
recently been recognized.

Sales and employment have been rising since the
recession. Industry competition is increasing.
Consumers have continued to borrow heavily despite
high interest rates. Among the now rapidly in-
creasing retail categories is eating and drinking.
1979 should be a difficult year for retailers because
of increasing competition, high interest rates and
resulting decreased levels of purchasing power, and
inflation. Retailers will increasingly compete on the
basis of service and quality. Continued interest in
non -metropolitan sites in "new Markets" is expected,
along with a scaling -down of major store sizes. In-
creased use of OCR (optical character recognition )
labeling and wands in point -of -sale cash registers is
also anticipated. The rapid growth of the eating and
drinking component may give rise to the inclusion of
"eating out" opportunities within traditional
grocery stores. Furniture store sales are expected
to rise significantly due to the increasing number of
dual residence households and single-family residences.
Drug stores are expected to diversify more in the
future, in response to increasing competition from
general merchandise and supermarket chains in their
traditional lines of merchandise. In apparel and shoe
lines, increased use of imported merchandise is expected.

The major area of export potential is the fast food

In Dade County, there were 8,338 establishments with
118,620 employees and an estimated $943 million payroll
in 1978. Total retail sales for the same year were $5.2
billion. In the City of Miami, as of 1972, there were
4,659 establishments with 28,639 employees and a payroll
of $975 million, in 1978 dollar terms. Retail sales in
that year were $6.3 billion in 1978 dollars.
Metropolitan area sales have been rising, and increasing
shares are accruing to suburban locations. Since 1972,
the proportion of sales attributable to general merchan-
dise, furniture, and drug stores has declined; the
proportion attributable to apparel and accessories,
miscellaneous retail goods, and food stores has increased.
Increasing levels of sales in many areas, particularly
the downtown area, are going to Latin shoppers. Latin
tourists spent an average of $1,030 each, per visit in
1976. It is estimated that Latins spent approximately
$285 million in the Miami area in 1974 and about.5590
million in 1976. The most popular items for Latin
shoppers are clothing and shoes, domestic 000ds and

Seaport - two additional passenger terminals planned
which will expand number of berths for cruiseships
from 8 to 13. In the future, it is projected that
90% port's cargo will be shipped by containers: 50%
by trailer roll-on/roll, and 40% by container lift-
on/lift-off. (Port now has 10 intermodal ship berth
facilities.) As of 1977, level of containerization
for port was 17%, most of which was roll-on/roll-off.
Currently have 20 truck -mounted mobile cranes, plus
a large gantry crane expected to begin operation

Current Level of
Activity:
Current expansion projects include: runway extension,
construction of distant low cost parking served by
bus (underway),construction of 160,000 sq.ft. cargo
building with airside access for eight wide -body
planes (underway), $2.6 million facelift project
(to be completed 11/79) consisting of facade moderni-
zation, extension of curbside drop-off facilities,
improved signs, and waiting room renovations. S55 million
international facilities extension is also now in progress:
a five -story structure,FIS (Federal Inspection Service)
building will include a new Customs and Immigration
area and be linked to the International Satellite
Terminal by a passenger shuttle. This project
will effectively triple the amount of space now
available for processing international arrivals.
Considerable public funds for expansion and moder-
nization of facilities.
Very active. 32% of all Dade County firms are in-
volved in export. South Florida exports expanded
from $1.02 billion in 1972 to $4.5 billion in 1978.
(214% since 1970). 31% of all U.S. exports to South
America pass through South Florida Terminals. (An
11% increase over 1972). 34% of all South Florida
exports go to Venezuela.
Seaport - 64% of the total value of the sea-
port comprised of exports, mostly containarized.
Tonnage volume at port has tripled in the past 12
years. Total tonnage for 1977 was 1,711,535.
Annual growth rate of port is estimated at 14%. 1975
level of direct employment in Dade County engaged in
international transactions is 21,107, representing
a 100% increase over 1968 in the proportion of
total employment involved in this sector.
Airport - 16,500,738 passengers in 1978 of whom
T0.6 million were domestic and 6 million were
international. (Miami International Airport is
second busiest U.S. international gateway). For
the 12 month period ending 3/1979 - an increase
of 21.9% was recorded in domestic travel, 20.5%
in international. Rate of growth was 11% increase
in passenger travel in 1978; 15% increase in
international cargo volume in 1978; 13% increase
per year in cargo volume. 513,000 tons of cargo
shipped in 1978 (75% of which was international
cargo); 35,000 people employed at airport; payroll
$500 million (or 25% total for Dade County); economic
impact on Dade County economy estimated at S3 billion.
Recent Trends:
Future Outlook:
Export Potential:
Opening of Miami Free Zone: Largest facility of
its kind in the hemisphere. It will contain a
permanent exposition center and modern computer-
ized warehouses. Majority of goods passing through
the zone will be received. and shipped by air. Foreign
and domestic merchandise (largely for export to Latin
America) will be moved into the zone for storage,
assembly or processing where it is not subject to
customs duty unless shipped to markets within the
U.S.. Miami Free Zone is unusual in that it is
operated for profit. Most of its 130 tenants are
companies who do business in Latin America and find a
Miami distribution base to be well located. Miami
Free Zone offers them a multitude of services (like
computerized inventory, security and translation
services) plus an ideal location for Latin American
export.operations.
Proposed World Trade Center: Designed to centralize
international trade functions in single. downtown
building. Several proposed sites in the convention .
center vicinity. Latest proposal calls for it to
be built in air rights on top of City parking garage
near the convention center, whose structural strength-
ening will be financed by $5-S8 million of City funds.
Major stumbling block to date has been in locating
a "Primary" or "anchor" tenant for proposed building
and the fact that most prospective tenants are already
adequately housed or planning to relocate to buildings
now or to be shortly under construction.
Continued "boom" in international trade with expanded
activity involving Latin America. Expansion of sea-
port and airport underway to accommodate increased pas-
sengers and freight activity. Free Trade Zone will
be very active. Employment associated with interna-
tional trade expected to represent 22`; of total for
Dade County by 1980.
Will continue to grow. Projections for 1985 estimate
South Florida exports will be valued at $10 billion.
Demand for U.S. goods will remain particularly strong
in Venezuela, Columbia and Mexico with potential for
considerable growth in Brazil.

C. Tourism
TOURISM
The scale$and character of Miami's tourist industry has been eval-
uated and compared with Orlando and other cities in the southeastern United
States.
The data analyzed in this respect are based on the results of a
Florida Division of Tourism random sample survey of visitors leaving the
state by automobile on five major highways and visitors on outgoing
flights at major airports.
21
Principal conclusions are:
- Miami continues to attract increasing numbers of visitors.
In 1978 more than 4.1 million persons made temporary stays
in Dade County, an almost one million gain over 1970.
But Miami area's share of visitors to the state declined
to 12.9 percent .in 1978 from 14.3 percent in 1970. The
typical visitor to Dade County in 1978 spent $40 per day
qd C-1sta5� ed almost nine days. (pages II-C-8, II-C-10, and
- Airline travel is now the major form of transportation for
visitors, a reversal of the 1970 pattern. In 1978, 70
percent of Dade County visitors arrived by air, a fact
that may enable the area's tourist industry to withstand
any future energy crisis. (page II-C-8)
- About one-third of Miami's visitors are from the northeastern
United States or Canada. While less tfian 5 percent are
from foreign countries other than Canada, the number of
these visitors is growing rapidly. Visitors from Venezuela,
for example, increased 37.5 percent from 1976 to 1977. pages
II-C-12 and II-C-13)
- Not all visitors are tourists. Less than one-half of
Dade County's visitors in 1978 came on vacation
exclusively. Almost one-third were in the County on busi-
ness when responding to surveys conducted by the Florida
Division of Tourism. (page II-C-14)
1/ These numbers vary significantly from those compiled by the Miami -
Metro Tourism Office which used data such as arrivals at Miami
International Airport.
II-C-1
Conferences and conventions attracted approximately 8.4
percent of the area visitors. Miami itself had 214 con-
ventions and conferences with more than 100,000 delegates
attending in 1973. Each delegate to a convention in 1978
was estimated to have spent $55 per day for an average
four -day stay. The estimated number of conventions for
this year, 1979, is down slightly, possibly the result of
boycotts because of the state's failure to pass the ERA.
(pages II-C-14 and II-C-21)
The number of Miami conventions should increase substantially
with the opening of the Miami Hyatt -Knight Convention Center
by January 19137. The Miami Convention Bureau is now taking
bookings for the new center and has already lined up two
major conventions. The Bureau is projecting as much as a
50 to 75 percent increase in convention business as a result
of the centers availability.
Disney World remains the undisputed leader of Florida
attractions. Many foreign visitors come through Miami
enroute to Orlando. Should regularly scheduled interna-
tional service begin at Orlando International Airport,
Miami may be bypassed by those visitors. Local tourist
attractions do a moderate business and report increasing
attendance figures. The Miami Seaquarium, Parrot Jungle
and Viscaya were among the top 10 attractions in the
state for air travel visitors in 1978. But their attendance
is well under the 11 million -plus visitors to Disney World
in 1978 and several million who visited Busch Gardens in
Tampa and Sea World in Orlando. (pages II-C-16 to II-C-15)
One advantage Miami does have in the way of tourist
attractions is its retail businesses. Forty-one percent
of South American visitors questioned in a summer 1976
poll said they were in the Miami area to shop. The typical
Latin American visitor spends approximately S1,000 per
person per trip on retail purchases.
Anyone who stays one night in the Miami area is considered a visitor
and has an impact on the local economy. This includes both the winter
resident and the person making a connection to a cruise ship. Therefore,
information on rental apartments and condominiums is included in this
report along with data on hotels and motels. The following observations
are based on these data.
II-C-2
tiwN
- Although the number of hotel/motel and rooming house lodging
nits in Dade County has declined since 1977, the number of
rental units has gone up. This probably results in part from
an increase in seasonal residents compared to short-term
visitors. Figures on length of stay are averages, however,
and do not show the number of short-term visitors compared to
those staying several months. (pages II-C-19 and II-C-20)
- The number of restaurant and lounge employees went up by more
than 3,000 from 1977 to 1978. In 1978, 35,262 persons were
employed in metropolitan Miami by eating and drinking establish-
ments, more than any other Florida region including Orlando.

Could be affected by fuel shortage but most (70%) visitors
to Miami in 1978 arrived by air. Renovation of hotels
such as Everglades and Four Ambassadors may improve
occupancy along with increasing numbers of Latin visitors
in Miami to shop. Miami Beach redevelopment could

D. Manufacturing
MANUFACTURING
In 1978, manufacturing accounted for 95,100 jobs, or 14.7% of total
Dade employment.
The following materials summarize key characteristics of the nine most
significant County manufacturing industries, emphasizing those prominent
in the City economy. National and local perspectives, taking account of
recent trends, future outlook, locational criteria and other relevant
features, are covered for each industry.
Published sources for the industry summaries that follow are the
1979 United States Industrial Outlook, County Business Patterns, 1976,
Quarterly Report on Employment and Wages Covered by Florida Unemployment
Compensation Laws, January -March, 1978 (issued by the Florida Department
of Labor and Employment Security), and the Directory of Florida Industries,
1979. Discussions held with selected industry experts at the United
States Department of Commerce (Industry and Trade Administration) as well
as interviews with Miami industry leaders provide further information.
In general, these sources indicate that local manufacturing firms
benefit from Florida's right-to-work laws (and correspondingly low
levels' of unionized workers). Latin women form the majority of employees
in assembly tasks such as sewing machine operators (apparel, leather and
leather products, and furniture) and microscopic assembly (electric and
electronic equipment, instruments and related products.)
Key findings concerning specific industry trends and characteristics
are summarized below.
II-D-1
Apparel and Textiles
Two major trends are noteworthy with respect to the apparel and
textile industry (see pages II-D-26 through II-D-35):
1. Shrinking labor pool and decentralization. Apparel
is a labor-intensive industry and is by far the largest
manufacturing employer in Dade County. A large part of
the value of a garment is added by the stitching
(assembly and finishing) process. For this reason,
firms, which tend to locate near sources of inexpensive
labor found the female Cuban immigrant population of
Miami to be a major attraction in the 1960's. While
this labor pool still remains, it has not been re-
plenished by younger women and future labor sources
are uncertain. In the last several years increased
competition for sewing maching operators was one of
the prime factors in the relocation of some firms to
areas outside Miami's Fashion District. They moved
to the areas where the Cuban labor force had migrated.
2. Import impact. In recent years there has been a significant
increase in competition from foreign countries where labor
in considerably less expensive than Miami or the rest of the
non -unionized South. Fashion apparel (combined with pres-
tige marketing) has been the sector most resistant to
these changes.
In an effort to compete with foreign production, many
domestic apparel companies previously oriented to Miami
are now sending pre-cut goods offshore (to Haiti, the
Dominican Republic, and the Far East) in efforts to
reduce costs. In order to offset import penetration
into the nation's markets, the U.S. Department of
Commerce has instituted a program aimed at expanind U.S.
exports, particularly to Europe where the declining value
of the dollar makes U.S. goods especially competitive.
This program will be accelerated in the next few years.
Household Furniture Manufacture Pages II-D-36 to II-0-45)
This industry as a whole is dependent upon increases in disposable
income. Miami, with its large population base, supplemented by a large
retiree, second -home market, is a major center for certain types of
furniture manufacture.
II-D-2
Rattan upholstered furniture is one specialized sector of this industry
located in Miami. Domestic markets for casual, indoor -outdoor "South Florida
Style" furniture are increasing, and potentials for exporting these products
also appear substantial.
Leather and Leather Products (Pages II-D-46 to II-D-52)
Recent declines in this industry can be traced directly to less
expensive imports and the scarcity and rapidly rising costs of leather.
Almost 80 percent of United States hides are now exported, to Japan and
elsewhere, for offshore assembly. No growth in employment was recorded
in this sector between 1973 and 1978 in the U.S., despite the labor-
intensive nature of production methods.
Increasing awareness by the Federal government of industry problems has
led to new programs which focus on export potentials, but import erosion
is expected to continue. The use of synthetics (especially molded plastic
soles for shoes) is seen as one way to reduce costs.
The Miami leather industry -- in which luggage, handbags and shoes are
the major products -- suffers from the same problems as the nation's industry,
and the future of this sector is uncertain.
Printing and Publishing Pages II-D-53 to II-D-58)
This industry is characterized by increasing automation and evolving
technology nationwide, with emphasis on the use of lithography. Major
industry problems are the price and supply of paper, energy costs
and increased foreign competition.
The Miami industry (commercial magazine and newspaper printers) is
attracting a growing share of the regional market, as well as new markets
outside the Southeast, and potentials for continued growth -- despite industry-
wide problems -- appear to be good.
II-D-3
Electric and Electronic Equipment (Pages II-D-59 to II-D-65)
X-ray and electromedical equipment are the most rapidly growing
sub -sectors in this industry, with expanding export markets (industrialized)
nations such as Western Europe, Canada, and Japan) complementing domestic
prospects.
Constantly improving technology is vital for this industry and
technical recruiting, especially of engineers, is a key problem.
None of the major Dade County industry establishments are located
in the City of Miami. Proximity to the airport (for shipping) and the
highway system (for access), plus availability of cheaper land have attracted
most of the newer firms to unincoporated Dade locations and to Broward
and Palm Beach Counties.
Instruments and Related Products (Pages II-D-66 to II-D-72)
High growth and a period of evolving technology characterize this
industry. There are strong export markets in the developed countries
and domestic de and for analysis and control equipment continues to grow.
The surgical and medical sector is particularly strong.
A full 10 percent of the X-ray equipment and surgical and medical
instruments used in America are made in South Florida. The major problem
faced by Miami firms is professional recruitment. There is a local scarcity
of clinical chemists and research scientists and a growing difficulty
in attracting outsiders with such specialties to the area.
Two very large companies are currently located in the City. One
of these, however, will be moving to Sweetwater in the near future.
II-0-4
ti
Rubber and Miscellaneous Plastics Products (Pages II-D-73 to II-D-76)
Nationwide, this is a strong growth sector, particularly for those
subsectors related to the automotive market. Other growth areas with
greater applicability to the Miami area include construction component
products (in response to increasing use of plastics for such items as
pipes) and electronic and scientific instruments. Latin American and
Caribbean export markets are also growing.
In Dade County, most companies in this sector -- including several
very large ones -- are located outside the City, frequently in Miami
Lakes and Hialeah Springs.
Food and Kindred Products (Pages II-D-77 to II-D-82)
Unlike most other manufacturing categories, this industry is essentially
local -serving, except for foreign exports, which is a growing market for the
nation as a whole.
Miami area growth potentials are strong due to the area's increasing
population base and its large restaurant and hotel market. Area firms tend
to locate where highway access is convenient, primarily outside the City
limits.
Fabricated Metal Products Manufacture (Pages II-D-83 to II-D-90)
Declining employment and increasing productivity due to automation is
a nationwide trend in this industry, as is the increase in imports of
fabricated structural steel building components. On the other hand, most
firms in the Miami area report steady growth in exports.
II-D-5
The health of this industry is closely tied to that of the construction
industry, so only a moderate level of growth is anticipated in the next •few
years.
Because of the spatial, physical and access needs of this industry, the
City is not;well positioned to capture major shares of industry expansion.
II-D-6
1. Business Survey - Summary Results
BUSINESS SURVEY
In.order to collect city -specific information on industrial operations --
including the nature and levels of business activities, labor force needs and
availability, and facilities requirements -- a survey of Miami businesses was
conducted. The survey process involved two phases: a mail survey; and on -site
interviews with selected industry leaders.
The small size of the respondent group (four from the mail survey and 14
site -visit interviews), reduces the reliability of the results. Nonetheless,
the results are indicative of certain industrial patterns.
The following pages briefly describe the major findings and conclusions
of the business survey. Following the presentation of results, the interview
process --including the methodology employed in company selection -- is de-
scribed, and a sample survey questionnaire is provided.
Major Findings and Conclusions
Key findings of the survey centered on the following areas: (1) labor
force characteri`'.tics and needs; (2) reasons for outside -of -city locations
among larger firms; (3) export markets; and (4) support from the local business
community.
Labor Force Characteristics and Needs. Our business survey revealed
the large extent to which the local manufacturing community is dependent on the
Cuban female labor force for unskilled workers. Several firms have staggered
work shifts to accommodate the specific needs of this group of workers, and
have planned work flow based upon cultural considerations largely relevant
to Cuban workers (e.g., religious holidays, coffee breaks, etc.) The reluc-
tance of Cuban women to work at night had caused two companies to reorganize
II-D-7
their night shift production schedules, and at least two firms closed down
completely for several weeks during the summer because absenteeism among
Latin women (whose children are home from school during the summer months)
made coordinating vacations and maintaining production levels very difficult.
A key concern for the firms visited was transportation for their employ-
ees. Traffic congestion, difficulty of access, fuel shortages and a lack of
adequate public transportation facilities had prompted several companies to
organize car pool and van pool services to limit absenteeism and insure the
availability of their workforce. Littlecooperation among firms was evi-
dent in these efforts, however. Similarly, no concerted effort has been
made to petition government for improved services -- like additional bus
routes, more conveniently located bus stops, bus shelter, sidewalks, or
improved traffic patterns -- except on an individual basis.
Reasons for outside -of -city locations among larger firms. Previous
research conducted as part of this study effort had revealed that, in most
manufacturing categories, the larger firms are located outside of Miami city
limits. Our business survey revealed that the availability of less expen-
sive land in newly developing areas is the primary reason for this locational
pattern. Many of the firms interviewed had moved to the Palmetto area ten or
so years ago, when land in that area was attractively priced.
Export markets. A majority of the firms surveyed indicated a recently
increased level of interest in tapping export markets. Among many ofthe
larger firms -- particularly those engaged in the electronics and fabricated
metal industry -- exports already constitute a large share of total sales.
II-D-8
Support from the local banking community. There was unanimous agree-
ment among the firms visited that local banking institutions are not re-
sponsive enough to their financing needs. The greater receptivity of
banks in other cities (notably New York) to extend receivables credit or
to make loans was acknowledged even by those Miami firms who deal primarily
with local banks. Miami bankers are viewed as "more eager to invest in real
estate" and "too conservative" to take the lead in meeting the financial
needs of manufacturers.
The Interview Process
Mail Survey. Questionnaires were sent to 36 companies in nine key manu-
facturing industries: apparel and textiles; fabricated metal products; leather
and leather products; medical instruments and related products; printing and
publishing; electric and electrical equipment; food and kindred; rubber and
miscellaneous plastics products; and furniture and fixtures. The total sample
included three companies in each category, with the exception of apparel (12
companies) focP lnd kindred (4 companies) and rubber and miscellaneous plastics
products (2 companies). All mail survey firms are listed on pages II-D-11 and 12.
All companies sent the questionnaire were listed in the 1979 Directory
of Florida Industries as having 100 or more employees.
0f the 36 recipients, four responded, for an overall response rate of
Interviews. Firms for site -visit interviews were selected by consulting
the following printed sources: Dade County's ;Major Employers issued by the
Dade County Office of Economic Development; Directory of Florida's Public
Companies, Florida Trend Magazine, July 1979; list of Florida Associations
published by the Florida Department of Commerce; Eastern's Guide to the
Florida Apparel Industrj published by Eastern Airlines, and the membership
lists provided,by the Printing Association of South Florida and the National
Society of the Plastics Industry.
In addition, recommendations were sought from the Florida Department
of Commerce, the United States Department of Commerce, the Greater Miami
Chamber of Commerce, the Florida Fashion Council, the Fashion District Business
Association, the International Ladies Garment Workers Union and the Planning
Department of the City of Miami.
In the final selection of firms, priority was given major firms located
within the City of Miami or those of exceptional size in areas closest to the
city's boundaries.
In all, 14 site -visit interviews were conducted. The firms involved
are listed on pagell-D13. Of these, seven firms were prepared at the time
of interview to answer the questions previously described by phone and
were particularly helpful in discussing industry issues, trends and pro-
spegtives. Three firms required follow-up contacts to complete survey
questions and four were able to answer survey questions but not to pro-
vide further information about industry issues.
Considerable resistance was encountered among local manufacturers to
the idea of participating in a business survey. Distrust of local govern-
ment, failure to recognize the name of the sponsoring agency (OTCD) or
hostility to the,"development" function implied in its name were partly
responsible. The implication that research results might be used to
attract other ("competitive") businesses to the area was a major obstacle
raised by all but the electronics firms, who welcomed this possibility.

Generally stable output, declining employment, generally
stable and small level of exports, increasing imports.
Government regulations and foreign competition pose
major difficulties.
Continued and possible increased competition from foreign
countries, especially China, and use of Latin American
Countries for assembly. Increased mechanization would not
improve conditions significantly.

Serious impact in virtually all sectors of the industry /"N
except fashion apparel (located primarily in New York
plus some in California and a limited amount in Florida
and Hawaii).
To date, no serious effort has been made to tap potential
overseas markets. Major program by U.S. Department of.
Commerce now getting underway. Current area of concentration
is Western Europe, particularly in view of the fact that
devaluation of U.S. dollar makes exchange rates there more
favorable for European consumer.
(1) SIC 22 -- concentrated in the Carolinas and Georgia.
(2) SIC 23 -- New York, Pa., Calif., North Carolina, New
Jersey, Georgia, Texas, Tennessee. Southern states --
mostly less complex operations where styles change less
frequently (i.e. shirts, pants, work clothing).
(1) Quality, inexpensive labor force
(2) Truck access
(3) Financial assistance and overall cost factors

over 35 years old. Labor pool declining due to increased
education and better paying job opportunities increasingly
available to younger (2nd generation) bilingual Cuban
women. New immigrant groups (Hatian, Vietnamese) vital
as potential source of future labor.
Little training required for operators. Done on the job
(informal).Emphasis on sewing speed.

Warehouse needs not extensive
Limited low cost modern plant space avialable in Garment
Center compared to "outlying" areas. Of garment center

Import Impact.
Export Potential:
Fabric and notions (buttons, zippers, fasteners, thread) all
readily available here. Proximity to textile mills suppliers.
Good location for materials and supply.
Declining number of firms due to closings and increased
movement to outlying areas. Lure of low cost modern
industrial parks and proximity to Cuban labor force drawing
companies away from City of Miami. As of 1978: number of
workers in Miami SM5A employed in apparel industry was 22,800;
in textile mill products was 3,000. 691 apparel manufacturing
establishments, 87 textile mill products establishments.
Payroll for same period is estimated at $28.3 million in
textiles, $165.4 million in apparel. As of 1972,
in the City of Miami there were 293 apparel establishments
with an employment of 7,400 and a payroll of $54.4 million
(in 1978 dollar terms). •
Increased concern about import penetration and labor
scarcity. Growth of interest in exporting. Latin
American tourist represent strong new retail market
for Garment Center firms.
Increased emphasis on exporting (particularly to Europe)
of women's high fashion sportswear may serve to offset
negative trends for local industry. Renewed labor sources
(particularly by liberalizing immigration laws relating
to Haitians) would be significant improvement. In general,
however, the outlook is poor, especially considering po-
tential for exploiting Asian (notably Chinese) sources
of cheap labor.
Significant industry shift to offshore assembly operations •
(in attempt to reduce labor costs and offset tremendous
impact of lower cost imports) has rendered less attractive
Miami's domestic labor market despite its relative low
cost (lack of unionization) compared to Northeast. Many
Northeastern companies who would otherwise have contracted
assembly to local firms are now sending pre-cut goods off-
shore in search of even cheaper labor.
Ladies high fashion sportswear and active sportswear
exports have good potential despite protective barriers
overseas. This market is still largely untapped. Large
firms beginning to focus on Europe now.

Future Outlook:
Import Impact:
Export Potential:
Major Geographic
Locations:
U.S. government 3-year revitalization program for
footwear industry was announced in mid-1977. However,
import erosion is expected to increase, despite a
variety of government aids, with imports rising to
$11.1 billion (in 1978 dollars) in 1983. Growth
potential for personal leather, automotive, and
furniture markets. Footwear situation seems to be
stabilizing, and it is hoped that government aid
and improved technology will improve conditions further.
Increasing cost of leather may cause producers of a
variety of leather goods to turn to alternative mate-
rials, such as vinyls and textiles. However, the many
substitutes,including vinyl, are petrochemical products
and therefore costs for these materials are also rising
rapidly. Large potential for fashion leather industry
because many imported leathers are not of highest quality.
Major impact, particularly on footwear, luggage and
personal leather goods. Inadequate managment, lack of
improved technology, in addition to costly labor and
subsidization of this industry in certain other countries
have weakened domestic industry's ability to compete
with foreign producers. Developing countries are
major suppliers; 1978 imports totaled $2.4 billion.
New Federal program will focus resources on export
potentials. Current exports are $280 million (4% of
output), up 15% over 1977. However, in personal leather
goods and luggage areas, export potentials may not be
strong, particularly in view of increasing use of 807
provision of Tariff Law.

2,716 employees in Miami SMSA as of 1978.. Payroll
total for Dade County (as of 1973) $19.8 million from
46 establishments.
Increased interest in protection for leather industry,
particularly as it relates to export of U.S. hides.
Lobbying group organized emphasis on mechanization and
modernizing production methods. Expanded use of syn-
thetics (injection molded plastic soles, linings, etc.)
Uncertain. Attrition and scarcity of skilled labor,
extensive impact of imports, and lack of mechanization
in manufacturing process all accelerate decline in
productivity and inability to compete. Possible re-
cession indicated as costly to this consummer goods

Significant impact on lower cost leather goods, partic-
ularly from Korea. Shoe industry particularly vulnerable

with 3,900 employees and $58.9 million in payroll, in
1978 dollars.
Newer companies tend to be small. Large firms attracted
to outlying areas by lower land costs.
Industry outlook is good. Local firms report that

Major Geographic
Locations:
Future of the industry dependent in part on Federal
policy decisions. U.S. government, particularly
DOD, sales expected to increase in next few years.
Growth potential is also large for automotive market
and VLSI's (very large scale integrated circuits).
Outlook for the overall electronic components sector
is less clear. In terms of major product lines/market
segments: the consumer market (i.e..TV's,tape equip-
ment) is expected to increase but foreign competition
is expected to strengthen; the communications and in-
dustrial products market (i.e. computers, calculaters,
testing and measuring instruments, medical equipment)
is expected to continue to increase; and the government
market should grow. The X-ray and electromedical
equipment product market is expected to grow only moderately,
due in part to new regulations governing the purchase
.of these products. However, exports of these goods
should continue to increase at a healthy rate. The major
export trading partners are Canada, the Netherlands,
Japan, W. Germany and France. The telephone and
telegraph equipment market is expected to experience
rapid growth based on the expansion ofdomestic and
foreign markets and the introduction of new technology.
Foreign competition (particularly from Japan, W. Germany,
France and the U.K.) in some areas, such as electronic
components (particularly semiconductors) is increasing.
Domestic position may be further reduced by new environmen-
tal regulations. In other areas, i.e. electronic systems
and equipment and X-ray and electronical equipment,
imports are declining. Imports of telephone and tele-
graph equipment are rising, but much of the imports are
components required by Japanese subsidiaries in the U.S.
Exports of electronic systems and equipment are expected
to continue to grow. These exports are sold to a variety
of countries, and increasing demand should provide impetus
for growing export sales. Exports of X-ray and electro-
medical equipment are also expected to increase. At
present, exports of these products account for 28% of
total production. Exports of telephone and telegraph
equipment are also increasing. Although many of these
exports are related to U.S. armed forces or U.S. manu-
facturers with foreign subsidiaries, other types of exports
are on the rise.

Access to suppliers and markets not especially important.
Require labor pool and adequate space.
Modems, data display and terminal devices,

radios, booster and battery cables, stereo components,
testing and measuring instruments, electromedical
equipment.
Northeast, Midwest, (population centers) and Texas.
Europe.
Unskilled assemblers (largely Latin women) do produc-
tion. Small but vital number of technical and pro-
fessionals (engineers mostly) in great demand. Recruited
actively out of state. Technical recruitment, key industry
problem, is especially acute here due to lack of "cluster-
ing" of competitive firms to provide better job market.
Technical training considered "woefully" inadequate in
all but radio/TV firms who can rely on traditional
vocation schools for trained personnel. Courses to
prepare technological data processers for working with
enigneers are not available nor are courses to upgrade
technological skills. Lack of educational opportunity
seen as major problem. Bigger companies working with
local vocational schools in attempts to restructure and
design current curriculum. Have had limited success.
Lack of adequate local training facilities responsible
for large amount of company resources being allocated
to national recruitment and in-house training; there is
no pool of native Florida technicians from which to draw.
Lack of sophisticated higher education in electronics
field also seen to discourage potential out-of-state
recruits who do not want to be "out of touch" with new
developments in a quickly changing field, where the
skills of electronic engineers are in great demand
nationwide.
Favor new plant space, with room to expand. Require
large assembly spaces and warehouses with good access to
highways (for transportation of products.)
No special resource needs.
Supplies still mostly from out-of-state. Electrical
components flown in from the Orient. (proximity to air-
port important). Growing number of suppliers locating
here, however.

Locations
Outside the City:
108 plants located in Dade County in 1978. Employment
was 6,460 and payroll is estimated at $70.5 million.
Despite technical recruitment problems local firms are
doing well, expanding markets, plant facilities. Con-
tinued interest expressed by out-of-state firms indi-
cates growth of firms will continue. In the City of
Miami, there were 91 establishments with 1,600 employees
and a payroll of $16.5 million (in 1978 dollars) in
1972.
Large growth in demand for electro-medical products
increasing beyond industry estimates particularly in
ultrasonic equipment. Emphasis on new technology and
research capabilities main source of overall industry's
health and success.
Rising cost of commercial land along with increased
competition for assembly workers are potential pro-
'blems associated with growth of local electronics in-
dustry. However, increased concentration of firms
will be potential asset in technological recruitment and
in attracting supportive services. Promising growth
areas are in aviation electronics, marine/ocean
oriented systems, biomedical electronics, environmental
monitoring devices, selected process control equipment
and special situation instruments. Consumer goods (i.e.
tape equipment, radios) expected to increase despite
strong foreign competition. Growing demand for
communications and industrial products (computer ter-
minals, testing and measuring devices) expected to
continue.
Consumer products (CB radios, TV sets) only area of
industry not booming due to impact of cheaper imports.
Rest of industry healthy and export markets are grow-
ing. To offset impact of cheaper imports, more
major firms are considering relocating in search of
less expensive labor. Florida and Miami area will
continue to attract them.
Excellant. Growing interest in Latin American and
Caribbean markets. Miami location seen as asset in in-
creasing income derived from exports to these countries.
Along the Palmetto (unincorporated Dade County) (36 Street)
and Milam Dairy Road area) North and West unincorporated
Dade where land is cheaper, access to highways is good
and expansion space is more readily available. Also
Broward and Palm Beach Counties.
Competitive Cities: Atlanta, Tampa.
II-D-62
Major Locational
Determinents:
Due to "worldwide" nature of markets, have wide degree
of geographical flexibility. Transport is main consi-
deration; access to highways and airport crucial. Tend
to locate near airports. Next in importance is cheap
labor supply to keep prices as competitive as possible.

Health institutions in Florida and Southeast represent
main markets for smaller firms. Larger companies sell
to health institutions in mid -west (Chicago, Cleveland,
Cincinnati), the Northeast (New York, New Jersey, Penn-
sylvania) L.A. & Texas (Dallas - Ft. Worth, Houston) and
have expanded into Europe and Asia(which represent
good markets with about 20% share of total sales for the
biggest firms.)
Good supply of unskilled production workers but industry
as a whole has significant problem recruiting profession-
als, especially research scientists in clinical chemistry.
University of Miami graduates in Chemistry cannot serve
local market. Too few in inorganic chemistry. Recruit-
ment highly competitive due to lack of trained personnel
produced in area schools. Jr. Colleges produce satisfactory
candidates in semi-professional, technical categories.
Clean, dust -free industrial space of between 50,000-
200,000 sq. ft. for manufacturing plant; warehouses with
good transportation accessibility and room for expansion.
Trend towards larger sites to accommodate employee park-
ing, deliveries and future expansion.

Export Potential:
Miami medical community is highly respected with inter-
national reputation. About 60 med-tech companies (10::
of nation's X-ray surgical -medical instruments are now
made in South Florida). Also local sales operations
offices for out-of-state firms who do business in Latin
America. Estimated employment for Dade County is 3,455
covering 70 establishments. Annual sales figures are
difficult to estimate, because many of the firms are
small and privately owned, but annual impact on the
economy of South Florida is estimated as high as $1 billion.
Total payroll is estimated at $39.8 million (for Dade County).
Strong emphasis on quality control. (Health of industry
very sensitive to questions of reliability of products).
Highly secretive about new products and competitive. Ex-
tensive security measures not uncommon in bigger companies
(including electronic surveillance).Subject to extensive
government control and inspection; highly regulated
industry.
High growth industry. Increasing health standards and
expanded health insurance along with growing Federal
spending on health care expected to encourage rapid
growth. Growing hospital costs encourage use of sophis-
ticated equipment to minimize reliance on highly trained
personnel. Increased government regulations and cost
containment measures will slow growth rates slightly
and will add to cost of developing and marketing new
products.
Growing interest in Latin American markets, as their
demand for higher technology instruments and medical sup-
plies increase. Strong demand for products among in-
dustrialized nations of Western Europe, Asia and Canada
continued to grow, as long as our current technological
advantage is sustained.
Major Geographical
Locations --
In the City: No particular area of concentration. Both Cordis (2,000

Impact effect is indirect - generally
for the final product, i.e. cars.
At present, less than 5% of total output is exported,
due to relatively high cost of shipping most products.
However, there are some exports to Latin American and

E. Construction: Summary Industry Characteristics
CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY
In general, the construction industry is cyclical and highly
dependent on the state of the economy. In the past few years, during an
expansionary period, the industry has prospered especially in the Sun -belt
region. For the immediate future, however, a downturn -- particularly
in housing -- is expected. While this decline may be offset by commercial
building and ,ublic construction, recessionary and inflationary influences
will likely result in only moderate growth over the next five years.
In the Miami area, large government projects -- including Government
Center and the transit system -- will generally compensate for decreased,
demand for housing construction. Office construction is expected to be
strong, based on the large number of projects now in planning stages.
In addition to local activities, the Miami construction industry
appears to be well positioned to tap foreign markets in the Caribbean,
Columbia, and Venezuela areas in need•of United States equipment and
technical expertise.
Given needs for warehouse space and accessibility, potential growth
for this industry in the City of Miami appears limited.

F. Health Services
HEALTH SERVICES
The following characterizes the Miami health services industry:
- It is the largest industry in South Florida (Dade,
Broward and Monroe County) with a 1978 employment in Dade
hospitals of about 23,000, '" up 19,350 in 1976.
- Demand for health care services comes from both the local
elderly population (and other area residents) as
well as from Latin Americans and other visitors.
Many of these come for special treatment and from areas
that are expected to grow in the next several years
Among the area hospitals attracting patients from
outside are Bascolm Palmer Eye Institute and Ann Bates
Leach Eye Hospital (for cataracts and special eye
surgery), the Miami Heart Institute in Miami Beach,
and Mercy Hospital ( for neurological intensive care
and cardiac rehabilitation).
- University of Miami/Jackson Memorial Center, the largest
medical facility in the Southeast, employs almost 8,000
people in its affiliated hospitals and outpatient clinics.
It is the only public hospital (besides the Veteran's
Administration Hospital) which serves the City of Miami.
(see page II-F-3)
- Atotal of 11,824 beds are available in Dade's 35 major
hospitals. Of these, eight are located in the City of
Miami (with 4,166 beds) and 27 in the Miami area (with
7,658 beds). (page II-F-5) •

III. NATIONAL AND REGIONAL CONTEXT
0
A. Comparative Employment Trends By Category,
:U.S., Florida, Miami Economic Region, and Dade County,
1972-1977
COMPARATIVE EMPLOYMENT TREADS
THE U. S., FLORIDA, THE MIAMI ECONOMIC REGION, AND DADE COUNTY
Growth in the Miami economy is, in part, dependent on changes in
the larger,regional and national economies. To the extent that Miami can
maintain its share of expanding industry sectors, potentials for increased
activity are enhanced.
To gain an understanding of Miami's current position,recent employment
trends have been examined for: the United States; the State of Florida;
the Miami Economic Region and Dade County. As noted below:
1. Only moderate employment gains were noted in the national
economy between 1970 and 1977. Setting aside the 1974-
1975 recession period when actual declines were recorded,
total United States employment increased by an average of
2 percent per year over the last five years. An
acceleration in growth, however, was registered during the
expansionary, post -recession years with employment up
3 percent per annum. (page III-A-3)
2. Both the State of Florida and the Miami Economic Region
were generally subject to more extreme job fluctuations
than the United States as a whole for 1972-1977. Higher
growth rates were recorded in periods of national
expansion, but larger declines were registered during
times of contraction. In overall terms, however, Florida
and the Miami Economic Region out -performed the nation as
reflected in total job increases on a percent basis.(page III-A-3)
3..Primary sectors supporting substantial job growth during
1972-1977 included trade; finance, insurance and rea: es:a:e;
and service categories. Sectoral growth within the Dade
III-A-1
County economy, in particular, concentrated on these
industries. Since Miami's profile parallels that for the
nation in this respect, it should be well positioned
to capture proportionate shares of future national economic
expansion. (page III-A-4).
4. Overall, Dade County's economic performance has been mixed
in relation to that of the region and the nation. While not
comparing favorably to the Economic Region as a whole during
1972-1977, more recent (1976-1977) employment trends show
Dade exceeding rates for the nation and "catching up" to
that of the region. (page III-A-3).
5. Principal sectors accounting for Dade County employment
growth during the 1972-1977 period included:
- transportation and public utilities; and
- wholesale trade.
The county also out -performed the nation in:
- construction jobs gained;
- manufacturing; and
- governmental employment.
(see page III-A-4)
6. With respect to the Economic Region, however, Dade
County has been losing market shares in many sectors as
increasing levels of economic activity are attracted
to Broward County. (page III-A-4).

B. Shift -Share Analysis, 1973-1976, By Two -Digit SIC
SHIFT -SHARE ANALYSIS
In order to further delineate Dade County employment changes in the
regional and national context, a shift -share analysis was undertaken'to
disaggregate changes noted into three major components related to:
1. The amount of local change attributable to growth
in total regional employment;
2. The amount of local change attributable to growth
in that specific industry sector in the region; and
3. The amount of local change attributable to the local
area's capture of regional growth in the specific
industry sector.
Two separate levels were analyzed in this respect. At the first level,
the Miami Economic Region was compared to the United States.
At the second, Dade County was compared to the Miami Economic Region.
Both analyses engaged single -digit and two -digit SIC levels.
The results of this shift -share evaluation,together with an explanation
of the methodology employed, are presented below. In general, the analys.i.s
indicates that growth for the Miami Economic Region,as well as Dade Count:,
reflected national/regional and industry mix effects, rather than
increasing competitive position effects. In selected categories, however,
both the Region and Dade economies did enhance their competitive positions
in the 1973-1976 period..
Major findings of the shift -share analysis are summarized below.
Miami Economic Region vis-a-vis the United States
-- The Miami Economic Region lost market share to
other United States locations in every major
industrial category except manufacturing.(page III-B-6)
III-B-1.
- - Within manufacturing, the Region improved its market
position in several categories, including:
- transportation equipment
• electric and electronic equipment
- apparel and other textile products
- instruments and related products
- textile mill products; and
(page III-B-8)
- -; In non -manufacturing sectors, the Region improved
competitively in selected subcategories:
- transportation services (transportation sector);
- banking and credit agencies other than banks
(finance, insurance and real estate sector); and
- health, legal and educational services, and
membership organizations (services sector).
(pages III-B-9 to III-B-12)
Dade County vis-a-vis the Miami Economic Region
Dade County's competitive position in the region
declined for all major industries. (page III-B-7)
-- In three sub -manufacturing categories, however, Dade
ouii;performed the region:
- textile mill products
- rubber and miscellaneous plastics products;.
and
- furniture and fixtures
(page III-B-13)
III-B-2
•
•
-- Dade also gained with respect to other jurisdictions in
the Economic Region.in:
- water transportation related activities
(transportation sector);
— furniture and home furnishing stores (retail
trade sector);
- holding and other investment offices (finance,
insurance and real estate sector); and
- educational and .miscellaneous services (services
sector).
(pages III-B-14 to III-B-17)
III-B-3
ILLUSTRATION OF CALCULATIONS
An illustration of the calculation of these effects is given
below, using growth .in the services sector in the Miami Economic
Region (MER) as an example.
1. Actual Growth cR) -- Actual growth is the actual change
in employment in the industry sector in the local area
(in this case the MER) between two years:
Year/Interval Services Employment, MER
1976
-1973
Change, 1973-1976
239,135
-218,266
20,919
2. National Growth Effect (N) -- The National Growth Effect is
derived by applying the percent change in total U.S. employ-
ment during the time period to the 1973 level of employment in
the services sector in the MER:
National Growth Rate
for total employment
1973 - 1976:

ment, Miami Economic
x Region
2.2402%
x 218,266
National Growth Effect = 4,889
3: Net Relative Change (R-N) -- The net relative chanqr, I; thrr
growth in the services sector in the 1ICR, a(1ju'.tfr(1 for growth
in'the overall national economy and is calculdU:'1 by
ing the national growth effect (N) from the actual growth (10:

16,030
4. Industry Mix Effect (M) -- The industry mix effect is cal-
culated by taking the difference between the growth rate
in the services sector in the U.S. and the growth rate in
total employment in the U.S., and then applying this per-
cent to the 1973 level of services employment in the MER.

5. Competitive Effect (S) -- The Competitive effect is derived
by taking the difference between the growth rate of the MER
services sector and the growth rate of the U.S. services
sector, and applying the resulting rate to the 1973 level
of services employment in the MER:
Growth Rate for the 9.5842%

C. Comparative Cities Analysis:
Atlanta, New Orleans, Orlando, Tampa, and Jacksonville SMSA's
COMPARATIVE CITIES ANALYSIS.
Included in this section are data and information on five prominent
cities in the Southeastern United States that are competitive with Miami ■
with respect to economic development activities. These cities are:
- Atlanta, Georgia
- Jacksonville, Florida
- New Orleans, Louisiana
- Orlando, Florida
- Tampa -St. Petersburg, Florida
For each city, recent trends in demographic and employment data are
presented. Also, summaries of development patterns and other relevant
characteristics of each city -- including major industries, -office and
industrial development trends, transportation services, taxes and
business incentives, current housing values, and educational/medical/
and cultural services -- are given.
Major findings of this analysis are summarized below.
Demographic and Employment Data
Major findings with respect to analysis of demographic and employment
data for Miami and the five competitive cities are as follows:
1. Metropolitan Miami is second only to the 15-county Atlanta region
in total copulation. In contrast, it is approximately
equivalent to the Tampa -St. Petersburg area and has a
greater population base than any of the other three
regions noted. (pages III-C-8 to III-C-10)
2. With the exception of Tampa -St. Petersburg, the Miami area
accommodates the largest proportion of older (over age 65)
persons. (pages III-C-8 to II-C-10) Though generally considered
outside "traditional economic development" concerns, many of these
elderly persons are relocated, retired individuals who bring consi-
derable assets with them to their new homes. Bank deposits,
investment in area housing, and market supports for
various service industries and professions are among
the "economic pluses" associated with transfers taking
place through such retirees.
Per capita income for' metropol i tan Miami exceeds that
of any or the other comparable area under examination.
In that respect, per capita income in Miami was 5
percent greater than that for Atlanta, the second
highest metropolitan area, and 21 percent more than
Tampa, the lowest rated of the five comparable
metropolitan areas. (pages III-C-8 to III=C10)
3. While labor participation is higher in Miami than in any
of the cities except Atlanta, unemployment also is the
highest in comparison with each of these other communities.
(pages II-C-8 to IV-C-10).
4. Services and trade, the two principal industrial
sectors in the Piiami economy, also feature prominently in
each of the other cities. (pages IfI-C-8 to I;II-C-10) Thus
it might be said that the nature of competition among these
five areas is keen since, in many respects, they may be seeking
not only organizations and enterprises that cater to the resident
population in this regard but also that may assume a larger
multi -state role within the South and Southeast.
For example, due to its major tourist attractions, Orlando
competes heavily with Miami in the area of hotels and other
lodging -places services, as well as in amusement and recreation
services. Tampa, home of Busch Gardens, is also competitive in
these areas.
With respect to business services, Atlanta and Jacksonville
are strong competitors and Orlando is becoming a contendor
as well.
And in the health services area, Atlanta, Tampa and, to
a lesser extent New Orleans, are all competitive with Miami,
particularly with regard to hospital services.
5. ManufacturinLis more significant to Miami than it is to
any of the'other areas with the exception of Atlanta. In
light of recent trends, however, the importance of manu-
facturing continues to decline for each of these communities
with the notable exception of Orlando. (pages III-C-8 to
III-C- 10 and page III-C-12)
With respect to specific manufacturing categories, Atlanta
is most competitive in the areas of apparel and other textile
products and furniture and fixtures, and both Atlanta and
Tampa are competitive with respect to printing and publishing.
Within subsectors of these categories, however, son cderree
of specialization is evident among the competitive cities.
(pages III-C-52 to III-C-81)
III-C-2
•
6. Measurements of interrelated and im ortant "ex,ort rains"
in the manufacturing sector, as reelected in va ue added,
show that Atlanta succeeded at twice the rate for Miami,
Tampa and New Orleans -- all of whom were approximately
equal in that category for 1976. (page III-C-46) '
With regard to putting in place new capacity for manu-
facturing during that same year, capital expenditures in
Miami exceeded those for Tampa and Orlando though remaining
somewhat below those for Atlanta.
7. Of all metropolitan areas examined, Miami had the lowest
average production worker hourly wage, 53.92 as compared
to the higher rates of 55.51 and 55.36 for New Orleans
and Jacksonville, respectively. (page III-C-46)
These differentials represent important issues from an'
economic standpoint in terms of both increasing Miami's
competitive manufacturing position and, equally important,
tracing "trade-offs" between providing opportunities for
lower skilled workers on the one hand and upgrading jobs
on the other. (page III-C-46)
8. Of key importance with respect to economic development,
employment growth for Miami since 1974 has centered in
trade, services and government. In contrast, and
directly related to cyclical trends, large declines
have been registered in construction.
Growth trends for the competitive cities have generally
paralleled those for Miami with the exception of Tampa,
which also -counted sharp gains in finance, insurance and
real estate. Thus, incremental employment opportunities
for both cities may be influenced by the effectiveness of
prospective plans and programs to accommodate the needs
of this industry sector over the years ahead. (page III-C-12)
9. In percent terms, employment increases for Miami were less
than those for the other cities. New Orleans was the
leader here with more than double the gains of Miami; 3.9
percent average annual gains as compared to 1.5 percent.
(page III-C-12)
Development Patterns (pages III-C-19 to III-C-38)
With respect to development patterns in each of the cities, the
following major conclusions can be drawn.
III-C-3
1. Most cities examined are making serious attempts to
attract international trade and commerce activities.
Foreign trade zones exist in New Orleans and Atlanta.
Phase I of Orlando's 200-acre trade zone should be
operational by September, 1979, and the City of
Jacksonville is preparing applications for development
of a zone there. Foreign banks have opened offices in
Atlanta, and the State of Georgia maintains trade
offices in Europe, South America and Japan. New Orleans
is making a serious effort to host the 1984 Worlds Fair
and at this time is the only city to have submitted
proposals and applications to attract this event.
2. Airport and travel facilities are being improved in all
the cities examined. New terminals are being constructed
or expanded.at airports in Orlando, Atlanta, and
Jacksonville. Terminal expansion at New Orleans airport
was completed in 1976, and Tampa's -"new -concept" airport
with landside and airside terminals opened in 1971.
Runways at all airports except New Orleans are being
extended to handle all types of passenger and cargo
planes. And customs facilities at Jacksonville, Orlando,
and Atlanta are under construction or are being enlarged
to handle increased international travel.
Moreover, the recent deregulation of the airline
industry is expected to lead to expanded service to
Europe, South and Central America from a variety of
cities. Currently, non-stop service to a large number
of foreign cities is available from Atlanta and Mew
Orleans. Tampa offers flights to Mexico and Canada
with seasonal service to Europe. The potential for
direct international service to Tampa and especially
Orlando -- with major attractions and a new airport
-- is very high and will help these cities to continue
to mature as major tourist destinations.
3. Port facilities in the various cities are generally
soecialized by product or market type. Cargo hand ed
at the Miami Port consists largely of machinery and
other high -value manufactured products being shipped
to Latin America. Tampa Port shipments are comprised
primarily of phosphates for delivery to Japan, Brazil,
India,' Pakistan and the Middle East. Jacksonville
handles the bulk of the automobile imports, and Port
Everglades handles .thepe'troleum imports.. New •Orleans,'
on the other hand, is the largest grain export port in
the world.
III-C-4
4. Business taxes are higher in Miami than elsewhere in
Dade County or in the competitive cities. The property
rate is 33.086 mills in Miami, compared to 19.191 in
unincorporated Dade County. In other incorporated Dade
County locations, the tax rate ranges from 23.647 (Hialeah!
to 31.353 (Miami Beach).
Comparable millage rates in other Florida cities are
as follows:
- Jacksonville: 18.02
- Orlando (including Orange County): 23.76
- Tampa (including Hillsborough County): 27.00
Outside of Florida, taxes are six to seven percent
lower in Atlanta than in Miami and 44 percent lower in
New Orleans, where there is also a 5-year exemption
for capital improvements. On the other hand, there is
no personal income tax in Florida and generally lower
rates of corporate incomes taxes in here than in
Georgia and Louisiana.
5. LAND
Industrial land is generally more expensive in Miami than
in outlying Dade locations, and such property is considerably
more expensive in Dade County than in suburban portions of the
various competitive cities.
One of the problems encountered in Miami is that much of the
land which could be used for industrial development is zoned C-3,
a broad commercial zone which also allows higher value uses to be
built. The use of this zoning results in very high land values.
For expample, land suitable for warehouse or industrial use in
the area north of the Civic Center goes for around $87,000 per
acre, as does comparable property in Allapatah. Property south of
El Portal runs $130,000 per acre, and land west of Biscayne
north of the Port can go for as much as $650,000 per acre. In
comparison, prime industrial property in a high quality industrial
park in the airport area, outside Miami, sells for roughly $130,000;
and at other locations alone the Palmetto and in Hialeah, prices
generally are in the $70,000 - $90,000 per acre range.
In comparison to the Miami area, ready -to -build industrial
land in the competitive cities is much less expensive. In the
Florida cities -- Jacksonville, Tampa and Orlando -- prime indust-
rial property sells for $30,000 - $50,000 an acre. In Atlanta, top
prices are $50,000, and in New Orleans, prime land goes for approxi-
mately $60,000 - $80,000 per acre.
III-C-5
6. In each city examined, major urban and metropolitan area
development projects are underway or planned. Projects
include various arrays of new office buildings, retail and
convention centers, hotels, rapid transit systems, and
airport additions and expansions. Orlando's major construction
projects and planned construction amounts to $2.7 billion, which
includes expansion at area attractions, development of a
foreign trade zone, airport expansion, housing projects and
intrastructural improvements. In Atlanta, nearly $4.6 billion
in new construction will include a $3 billion rapid transit
system, new office towers, $500 million in airport expansions
and improvements, major new hotels, and additional exhibition
centers. Projects of a similar nature are planned for New
Orleans and, to a somewhat smaller degree,. for Jacksonville and
Tampa.
7. Among the cities examined, Orlando is the undisputed leader in
attracting conventions. Orlando attracts 2,250 conventions
annually compared to Miami's 210. In fact, Miami attracted
fewer conventions than any of the other cities in 1978. However,
Miami's conventions tend to be larger than those of Tampa and
Jacksonville.
Orlando's role as a convention center will be strengthened
by its new $25 million Civic Center,. but Miami's new Knight
Center will enhance this city's competitive position in this
regard.

IV. INDUSTRY SECTOR RELATIONSHIPS
A. Industry Sector Multipliers and
Inter -Sector Relationships, 1972
INDUSTRY SECTOR MULTIPLIERS AND INTER -SECTOR RELATIONSHIPS
In order to estimate the range of likely second -round effects for
Miami of employment expansion in specific industry sectors, input -out
analyses previously prepared by a variety of government agencies have
been reviewed. These'provide indicators of potential multiplier,
effects in related industries for each industry sector.
Industry Sector Multipliers
The most recent comprehensive input-output analysis for Southeast
Florida was conducted by the United States Department of Commerce
Bureau of Economic Analysis for a ten -county region in 1972. According to
this analysis --Which measured induced as well as direct and indirect
effects -- the highest multipliers are associated with the following
industries:
- services (3.203)
- wholesale and retail trade (3.090)
- leather and leather products manufacture (3.078)
Other industries -- including construction; finance,insurance and
real estate; transportation and utilities; and other manufacturing
industries -- had multipliers ranging from .325 (finance, insurance and
real estate) to 2.837 (construction). (see page IV-A-3)
These measurements provide some indication of total benefits that
may be derived from programs which may expand activities within any of
these sectors. It must be noted, however, that actual multiplier effects
will be reduced to the extent that support or linked activities are
accommodated outside the city. These "leakages" from the system will
vary from industry to industry depending on the flows among sectors
associated with each, and may affect the multiplier size rankings
indicated above.
IV-A-1
Inter-Sectoral Relationships
As noted, an understanding of specific inter-sectoral industry
links is essential to an estimate of multiplier effects. Accordingly,
national input-output analysis has been used to identify interrelated
industries characterizing the Miami economic base. The results of this
evaluation, presented below, show that related industries for many
sectors are typically located outside the City, either in the region's
surburban areas or outside South Florida. As a result, multiplier effects
for Miami in each of the industries will be appreciably reduced. (See
pages IV-A-4 through IV-A-20)

B. Income Effects
•
INCOME EFFECTS
As one indicator of increased economic activity associated with specific
industries, average payroll per employee statistics have been compiled
for the County. The composition of the Dade County income base as
between employees and self employed proprietors has also been analyzed.
In general, these analyses indicate that many potential growth industries
in Miami are associated with high income effects.
Payroll Per Employee, Dade County
1. The highest employee payroll levels are noted for the
following major industry groups; transportation and
public utilities; wholesale trade; services; and
public administration (page IV-B-3). Significant shares
of these sectors are found in the City, and steps should
be taken to nurture and expand these activities where
possible.
2. Within two digit SIC categories, the highest payroll
per employee sectors are:
Manufacturing: (pages IV-B-4 and IV-B-5):petroleum and
coal products; chemical and allied products; food and
• kindred products; stone clay and glass products; and
non -electrical machinery. Of these, only printing
and publishing, and food and kindred products are major
city industries.
Transportation:(page IV-B-6) Transportation is by far the
highest paying sub -category, with an average per employee
payroll of over $21,000. Much of this employment is
in Dade County, outside city limits.
Finance, Insurance, and Real Estate (page IV-B-7): Security
and commodity brokers and services, with an average
payroll of $25,000, represents the highest sub -sector
within this category and many of these activates are
in Miami. However, this is a relatively small
employment category compared to others in this sector.
Investment offices are also a high payroll category,
as are insurance carriers and insurance agents. Many
of these other activities are currently in Miami and the
potential for increasing city activities in this
respect appears substantial.
IV-B-1
Services (pages IV-B-8 and IV-B-9): Legal services are
by far the highest payroll group in this sector, with
an average per employee payroll of $20,600. The legal
services sub -category represent a major growing
industry in the city.
Composition of Labor and Proprietors Income, Dade County
With respect to total contribution to net income, the most important
sectors are services, with 23.6 percent; government, with 15.1 percent;
and transportation adn public utilities, with 14.9 percent of the total,
respectively. (Page IV-B-10) Their importance is reflected in a combination
of both high paying job opportunities and appreciable numbers of people
employed. All three of these sectors are located in Miami at present,
with services and government representing major in -City functions.
Finally, transfer payments also play a significant role in the Dade
County economy (as shown by the Derivation of Personal Income by Place of
Resident materials on page IV-B-11). Transfer payments accounted for $1.6
million, or 14 percent of total county resident income in 1977. While data
of this type are not available for Miami, transfer payments are like as
significant in the City as in the County.

D. labor Demand/Supply
,LABOR DEMAND/SUPPLY
As adequate labor supply is vital to the retention and expansion of
the local economic base, an understanding of the current labor demand/
supply situation in the City and broader Dade County region is necessary.
The following provides information concerning these indicators and the
occupational mix of specific industry categories in the County.
From these data, it can be concluded that job categories currently
in demand in the City, as evidenced by their "hard -to -fill" classification
by the local employment security office or higher wages, are primarily those
categories -- including clerical and nursing -- which are over -represented
among City workers versus City residents.

E. Vocational Education
VOCATIONAL EDUCATION
Various non-professional occupational training programs, particularly
those providing skilled labor for industry 1/ complement the Miami area's
overall employment base.
Included are:
- Medical Training: since hospitals, clinics, and ancillary health
facilities constitute an important part of the local economy.
- Office Skills: needed to support all types of business and
industry.
- Retail Trade Skills: as retail is a major part of the local
economy.
- Trades and Crafts: directly applicable to specific industries
such as electronics manufacturing.
Unfortunately, no central source of information on vocational training
in Dade County is available., The two institutions providing most of the
vocational education iri the County are Dade County Schools and
•
Miami -Dade Community College, both of which maintain complete
records. The inventory of private vocational schools was obtained from a
list of all state -licensed, post -secondary, vocational -technical schools.
Schools which have failed to acquire state -required licenses or special
programs such as ones offered by companies to their own employees are not
included. Finally, there is no way to verify if enrollment and tuition data
provided by these schools are accurate.
Information on the local CETA effort was provided by the local
program office. .Activities here, of course, can change radically with
each new funding year.
1/ Information on cosmetology, modeling, public safety, and similar
programs has been excluded
IV-E-1
Neither the private and public colleges and universities in the
area, nor the local private. high schools, offer vocational programs of
any substance.
The data collected indicate that despite a wide variety of available
vocational courses, there are several problem areas as follows:
- Approximately 27 percent of last year's'public high school graduates
graduated with entry-level vocational skills. But the fields with
the most sutdents in training are not necessarily those for which
there is the greatest demand for trained labor or the ones with the
greatest record of success in job placement. For example, a follow-
up study of Dade students who graduated during the 1976-1977 academic
year showed only 25.7 percent of graduates trained in gainful home
economics using their skills on-the-job. Home economics is supposed
to be job preparatory in areas such as child care, cooking and sewing.
But in the year after graduation, 25 percent of the students in this
program were involuntarily unemployed and another 20.3 percent were in
unrelated jobs. Similarly, in the business graduate group -- which
accounted for 40 percent of the total 20,827 high school enrollment
for all job preparatory programs in Dade County Schools in the 1977-
1978 school year -- unemployment rates were 12 percent, according to
the same study. (pages IV-E-18 and IV-E-19).
- Approximately 1,200 students were enrolled in business -related courses --
including marketing, fashion merchandising, accounting, and social
work -- at -Miami -Dade Comminity College in the Fall of 1978. Yet a
Tallow -up survey showed less than 0 percent of the marketing program
graduates from Miami -Dade Community College were employed in jobs
using their skills; 40 percent were employed in unrelated jobs.
(page-IV-E-19)
• The data show vocational education is a growing part of the public
school curriculum. More than 40 percent of all high school students
are expected to be enrolled in vocational programs this coming school
year. (page IV-E-3) But the figures also indicate a trend toward
students working part-time jobs which do not necessarily teach technical
skills. Almost 65 percent of the students in Dade schools in 1978 in
on-the-job training programs were in the categories of Diversified
Cooperatibe Training and Work Experience programs. These are broad
categories primarily designed to allow students to work part-time
rather than to teach students skills. The category of trade and
industrial education included only 2.5 percent of the 7,341 students
in the on-the-job training program. (page IV-E-11)
▪ In total, an estimated $77.31 million was _vent on occupational training
for the T9T8-1979 school year. That figure includes tuition spent
by students as we1T as public funding. (page IV-E-14).

DECEMBER 31, 1979
ADDENDUM TO "SUMMARY"
This addendum to the "Summary" contained in Chapter II
of the "Final Report on the Financial Assistance Program for
the Office of Trade and Commerce Development, Miami, Florida"
submitted September 27, 1979, has been prepared to provide
further clarification and assurances with respect to four
major issues which have been raised by city officials con-
cerning a number of recommendations contained in the report.
These issues are:
1. A fuller description and analysis of the specific
needs which the proposed program would address.
2. An analysis of possible duplication of functions
now being carried out by existing organizations.
3. A further explanation of the rationale behind the
proposed functions of the Miami Development
Corporation — i.e., business development and
financial packaging, commercial revitalization,
and management and technical assistance.
4. The characteristics and advantages of the proposed
quasi -public corporate structure as compared with
other possible structures.
We believe that these issues and the questions they raise
are basicly answered by a fuller understanding of the proposed
program — its assumptions, objectives, structure, character,
functions, etc.
3 -
accomplish the most effective public leveraging of
private, investments on a centralized, coordinated
basis.
These key assumptions and
basic
approach supported a
set of program objectives for the Miami Development Corporation
stated in detail on pages 27, 28 and 29 of the report. The
program would give the City of Miami an effective business
development and financial packaging capacity to create and
assist new businesses, expand existing businesses and provide
for much broader participation in its economy by all segments
of the population.
As the following material will indicate, the proposed
Miami Development Corporation will be providing services
which no other organization in the city is now providing or
can provide; in doing so, it will address the business
assistance needs of the majority of the business population
of the city (Cubans, Blacks, small business, etc.).

DEFINITION OF NEED - NEEDS ANALYSIS
Chapter III of the report contains material on "Definition
of Need" and "Current Economic Development Agencies and Activities."
It summarizes a wide range of financing and development support
requirements emerging from analyses of:
- Planning studies for six neighborhoods and projects..
Miami's Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan (1976-1986)
- Program areas for future consideration
Each of these analyses dealt with the specific projects
expected to be encountered in carrying out the general strategy
in each development program and concluded with a statement of
financing or development support needs. Specifically, the
analysis of planning studies for Allapattah, Biscayne Boulevard,
Culmer, Garment Center, Little Havana, and Little River showed
the following kinds of financing or development support needs:
Long-term Fixed Asset and Real Estate Financing
Light Industrial
Commercial Development
Financing for Storefront Improvement
Inventory and Working Capital Loans
Land Assembly and Moderate Writedown
— Interest Subsidy
Tax -Exempt Financing
- Packaging Assistance
- Operational Technical Assistance
Overall Technical Assistance on Neighborhood
Commercial Revitalization - Development of
Stabilization/Strategy/Development Plan
The Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan lists other
areas for Neighborhood Commercial Revitalization projects and
some additional industrial development projects. The analysis
of these projects showed the following kinds of financing or
development support needs:
- Small Commercial Loans - Working Capital/Inventory Loans
- Fixed Asset Financing for Commercial and Industrial
Development
- Infra -Structure Support - Land Clearance and Preparation
Utilities
Transportation
- Tax Abatement
- Land Writedown
In addition, it appears that two important areas for signi-
ficant opportunity identification in the future would be
Downtown infill development and international trade development.
Analysis of these4 potential opportunities indicate the following
kinds of financing or development needs:

EXISTING PRIVATE AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ORGANIZATIONS
The report then proceeds to an overview of existing pri-
vate or community economic development organizations. Using
the basic assumptions, approach and objectives of the pro-
posed financial assistance program as general criteria for
evaluating the effectiveness and structure of existing pri-
vate and community economic development organizations as
delivery systems for the economic and business development
functions contemplated in the proposed Miami Development
Corporation, it is clear that none of the ten existing organi-
zations evaluated Csee list below) provides all or even most
of the services and assistance needed in the city.
In almost every case, the organizations are limited in
their scope by either geographic or racial considerations;
they are also limited or constrained in their effectiveness
by inadequate professional capabilities and financial resources
and access to these resources. As a result, with one or two
exceptions, their operatiuns generally show low levels of
activity and performance. While some of the functions to be
carried out by the proposed organization appear to be
carried out to a small degree by existing organizations, the
quality, scope and effectiveness of the results obtained are
- 7 -
considerably lower because of the limitation of professional
capability and resources required to do the job.
The needs summarized above and the limitations of
existing organizations as well as comparable experience in
other cities of the country, suggeststrongly that only a
city -related, citywide business development and financial
packaging organization with a highly professional staff
having access to.and packaging local and federal resources
could accomplish the public sector leveraging of private
sector investments and provide opportunities for small,
medium-sized and minority business development and assistance.

QUASI -PUBLIC CORPORATE STRUCTURE COMPARED WITH OTHER ALTERNATIVES
Another major recommendation made in the report is that
the organizational entity be a quasi -public, citywide economic
development corporation -- a type of corporate structure which
has achieved notable success in several cities including
Philadelphia, Dayton, and two or three others. This structure
is fully described in Chapters VIII and IX of Part III of
the report in which complete information and samples are
provided on Articles of Incorporation, By -Laws, and the con-
tract with the city. Additional material is also included
on Capabilities and Resources, showing requirements, sources,
organizational chart, and sample job descriptions.
The issues raised in this regard are concerned with the
comparative advantages and basic reasons for adopting the
quasi -public type o.f corporate structure as compared with
an in-house city departmental operation or a private non-
profit corporation.
With respect to the in-house city departmental operation,
the main difficulties are as follows:
There are many legal constraints and limitations
on cities with respect to permissible economic
development activities and particularly several in
connection with dealing with private businesses,
investors, etc.
- Political considerations usually create counter-
productive,difficulties for business development
organizations which undermine the credibility of the
operation.
- City departments do not have the autonomy and
flexibility required in the negotiation and
development of private projects requiring public
consideration and disclosure.
- In this respect, confidentiality and expeditious
action are usually major factors in decision -making
involving competitive factors in private sector
deal making.
- Certain specific transactions are not possible
in the public sector such as equity injections,
partnerships and syndication, real estate develop-
ment, etc.
With respect to private non-profit organizations, the
main difficulties are as follows:
Private non-profit development corporations are not
accountable or responsive to a city's overall
economic development needs or development strategy.
- In this respect, such a corporation cannot control or
coordinate all the factors of development and resources
required in a comprehensive economic development
delivery system.
- 10 -
- Most private non-profit organizations generally
serve specific, parochial interests and the concerns
of specific groups or communities without regard
to the city's overall plan for economic development.
- In some cases, they are controlled by local resident
groups who do not have the experience or expertise to
carry out broad -based economic development programs.
The recommendations in the report took the above factors
into consideration, particularly since most of them were specific-
ally encountered in the organization and development of the
Philadelphia Citywide Development Corporation. We believe strongly
that the recommended quasi -public type of corporate structure
will address and overcome these difficulties in an effective and
productive manner. The characteristics and advantages of
Citywide EDCs and the experience of three cities are more fully
described in the attached CUED Information Service bulletin.
Finally, from the legal standpoint, Mr. Burton Landy of
Paul, Landy and Beiley, has assured us that his firm is pre-
pared to proceed with the organization and incorporation of
a quasi -public corporate entity as soon.as he is requested to
do so.

Citywide EDCs
INTRODUCTION
The planning, implementation and coordination of local
economic development have become new and challenging
roles for many Urban development agencies. Community
economic development requires the local capacity to plan
realistically, improve critical urban infrastructures and
attract private investment to job -creating enterprises.
Over the past decade, many localities have made signifi-
cant advances in economic planning and in programming
capital improvements for economic development. However,
the last and perhaps most critical link —the public -sector
leveraging of private -sector investments in urban economic
development —has proven more difficult. Quasi -public
citywide economic development corporations appear to
offer potential as local development institutions capable of
effectively performing this latter function.
EDCs' Characteristics
Several characteristics serve to distinguish "quasi -public"
EDCs from local government agencies or private -sector
organizations.
I. Administrative autorrorrry combined +vith some degree
of political accountability. Quasi -public EDCs employ
full-time professional statTs which usually are not on local
government payrolls, but which are responsible indirectly
to Local policy -makers via an appointed governing board
and annual contractual reviews.
Boards usually are appointed partially by the chief
elected official, but enjoy an independent staff hired by a
professional executive director and an administrative budget
which is assisted partially by outside revenues and/or long-
term grants.
2. Legal Status. As quasi -public entities, EDCs are
considered legally to be private. non-profit corporations,
as opposed to municipal corporations (i.e., government
agencies). As will be si+scussed below under their legal
advantages. this allow, EDCs to utilize many of the impor-
tant development powers which are prohibited otherwise to
municipalities under most state constitutions.
3. ,Mired Public/Private Governing Boards. In addition,
most EDC boards must be composed of business, labor and
civic group representatives, as well as ex-officio members
from local government agencies. As will be discussed below,
this mixed public/private membership often can induce
additional capital leverage from local investors and tenders.
4. "Citywide" Economic Development Strategies. EDCs
may assist housing and neighborhood development projects,
but are oriented basically toward maximizing economic
benefits throughout the city. rather than in areas of concen-
trated unemployment or "Special Impact."
5. Capital Revolving Funds +Managed Under Contract to
Local Government.. Most quasi -public EDCs are prohib-
ited from disbursing funds as grants, as opposed to loans
and investments. Usually, EDCs manage capital portfolios
financed by long-term grants from local governments. These
grants often take the form of an annual contract between
the city and the EDC which must be renewed each year.
No, 8 July, 1976
Advantages
i. Administrative. As quasi -public entities, EDCs enjoy
administratively -autonomous staffs which are hired by and
accountable to a full-time executive director. Usually,
salaries and other overhead costs are financed initially out
of public and private sector grants, with an increasing share
absorbed by fees and service charges which, over time,
should increase with user volume. Thus, quasi -public EDCs
are capable of maintaining a professionally -autonomous
staff which is accountable only indirectly politically.
2. Legal. Beyond the administrative advantages they
may offer, quasi -public EDCs also benefit from their spe-
cial legal status. Although they usually receive their capital
funds through city contracts. quasi -public EDCs are
chartered as private corporations. rather than as city
agencies. Since the latter are considered municipal corpora-
tions under most state constitutions. EDCs provide an
important alternative to city governments which often are
prohibited from conducting economic development pro-
grams directly.
Characteristically, these types of state restrictions not
only prohibit cities from assisting private firms, but also
from engaging in land banking. related real estate develop-
ment and financial involvement, except in urban renewal
areas.
Several states, it should be noted, have enacted or are
considering special state enabling statutes allowing private
organizations as well as quasi -public EDCs designated by
local governments to engage in many activities prohibited
to municipal corporations. (See CUED Information Service
Report *3.)
3. Financial "Packaging." Many quasi -public EDCs
also have demonstrated a special capacity to "package"
various development financing tools by combining various
capital resources available through urban municipalities
(Community Development and Revenue Sharing Block
Grants, Economic Development Administration public
works and technical assistance, Comprehensive Employ-
ment Training Act manpower grants and other categorical
grants) with private business assistance funds (EDA and
Small Business Administration business loans and loan
guarantees, loans made through kcal development corpo-
rations, Small Business Loan Corporations and MESBICs
and OM BE technical assistance grants).
In addition, EDCs often can coordinate these capital
sources with other local development incentives (zoning
and regulatory changes. tax abatements, municipal improve-
ments) by acting as a liaison between the private sector and
local government agencies.
4. Improved Capital Leverage. Finally, quasi -public
EDC boards provide a useful institutional setting for im-
proving coordination between the public and private sec-
tors, and for eliciting additional private capital commitments
from the local business community. As with the "packaging"
feature, the mixed composition of quasi -public boards often
can induce more participation from local financial institu-
tions as well as from private business firms.

The three case studies which follow will examine briefly
citywide EDCs in Dayton, Ohio; Philadelphia, Pennsyl-
vania; and Pittsburg, California, in terms of their compara-
tive structure and operating powers, legal limitations,
economic development programs and performance records.
The first case study, on the Dayton Citywide Develop-
ment Corp., deals with these factors in more depth than the
two following case studies, providing a detailed look at the
institutional and economic setting for one EDC, while also
providing a brief comparison with two other similar
institutions.
CASE -STUDY #1:
Dayton Citywide
Development Corp.
Introduction
First organized in 1972 as a quasi-puhlic corporation.
Dayton Citywide Development Corp. (DCWDC) already
has begun to attain national prominence for its innovative
use of legal and financial tools to promote economic and
community development. Many of these techniques involve
direct risk -sharing with the private sector and represent a
degree of quasi -government participation in the develop-
ment process which is still relatively unusual in the United
States.
This type of participation, which includes equity invest-
ment, general partnerships and subordinated leasing
arrangments, goes beyond the more traditional role of de-
velopment "broker" usually associated with local puhlic
and quasi -public economic development agencies. Although
DCWDC can "package" indirect developer incentives such
as property tax abatements and industrial revenue bonds,
it also has been involved in more direct legal and financial
risk -sharing with private developers.
DCWDC also has been successful in relating its commu-
nity -wide development goals to neighborhood needs and
priorities and has institutionalized neighborhood participa-
tion into its project selection and review process, This
practice has evolved over several years and can he traced
to the, de facto veto power which the city commission gave
to several Neighborhood Priority Boards in 1970 when it
appropriated local funds for a "Neighborhood Grants
Program."
Six boards now elected by local -area residents suggest
• and approve projects to be funded by outlays from "Neigh-
borhood Trust Funds" managed by DCWDC. Although this
type of coordination may not be as unusual as DCWDC's
innovations in risk -sharing, still it demonstrates a high
degree of political sophistication on the part of both city
hall and DCWDC.
Background
Located in the southwest quadrant of Ohio, the City of
Dayton encompasses an area of 44 square miles with a
population of 214,000 estimated in 1974. This represents
an absolute decline of 12 percent from 1970 central -city
levels, as well as a decreasing share of SMSA employment.
Major employers in the city are National Cash Register,
with executive headquarters in Dayton, four large General
Motors plants, the Wright -Patterson Air Force Base and
the Defense Electronics Supply Center.
Economic Situation
Dayton's economy has suffered in recent years from major
decentralization moves by several large manufacturing
firms, including National Cash Register, which has cut back
more than 15,000 production -related jobs in the area since
1970. In addition, recessionary slow -downs by the four
local GM plants have added several thousand more workers
to local unemployment rolls.
Over approximately the same period, service -sector
employment has increased from 57 percent in 1971 to 60
percent of total employment in 1975, an increase of almost
10,000 ,jobs. More and more, Dayton has begun to focus on
developing a more diversified economic base and on en-
couraging continued growth in the service -sector economy
over the next decade.
DCWDC's economic and neighborhood investments
reflect this orientation and are used mostly to assist small
and medium-sized business and new downtown business
projects. It also has engaged in continuing industrial re-
tention efforts.
Evolution of DCWDC
Although elected at -large, Dayton's five -member city
commission long has been responsive to coordinating city-
wide development priorities with neighborhood goals. This
can he traced to the late 1950s and early 1960s, when elected
neighborhood councils first were created to qualify some
urban renewal areas for Federal funds and to assist in
housing code enforcement programs. A short time later,
other neighborhoods began to form voluntary councils,
composed primarily of civic and religious leaders.
Model Cities
In 1967, Inner West Dayton, a low-income, predomi-
nately -black residential neighborhood, was designated as
Dayton's Model Cities area. An elected citizens' advisory
group, called the Inner West Dayton Planning Council.
was delegated approval over all Model Cities expenditures,
until 1974 when the program was discontinued.
• In late 1970. the city commission adopted certain aspects
of the Inner West Dayton model and divided the remaining
neighborhoods of the city into four large areas, each to be
represented by a designated Neighborhood Priority Board.
Usually, board membership corresponded to the older civic
groups already in existence in several neighborhoods.
Unlike the Model Cities Planning Council, the original
four Neighborhood Priority Board- were not given explicit
i
veto powers over funding of neighborhood projects and
instead were to act in an advisory capacity to the commis-
sion. In practice, however, the commission allocated $200,-
000 in general revenues to fund a Neighborhood Grants Pro-
gram and allowed groups de facto veto power over those
disbursements in their own areas.
Citywide Variations
Then, in late 1971, Dayton was selected as one of 20
cities eligible for special HUD Planned Variations funding.
In addition to $2.9 million in Model Cities grants, this
designation enabled the city to receive $5.2 million and $4.7
million in fiscal years 1972 and 1973, respectively, to fund
new "citywide variations" of its own choice.
First, the city made its Neighborhood Priority Boards
elective and began funding "Neighborhood Site Staffs"
located in each board area. Each composed of eight pro-
fessionals, including housing inspectors and community
development coordinators, these staffs were to assist their
boards in developing long-term neighborhood goals and in
coordinating with the city manager's office.
Contract With City
In addition, Dayton committed more than $2.5 million
to capitalize four separate neighborhood trust funds and a
"citywide" account, both under the direct management of
DCWDC. This arrangement was formalized in 1972 when
DCWDC entered into a joint contractual agreement which
allocated approximately half of this sum among four neigh-
borhood trust accounts and the remainder to a "citywide"
account.
As another part of this agreement, each of the four
elected Neighborhood Priority Boards were to appoint a
Neighborhood Development Council, composed of nine
area residents with economic development expertise, which,
in turn, were to be assist•Td by neighborhood site staffs
and to participate directly with the DCWDC staff on neigh-
borhood project selection reviews.
Each Neighborhood Development Council also shared
with DCWDC approval and veto authority over all ex-
penditures from its respective neighborhood trust fund.
(Since 1972, the Model Cities area and an additional
neighborhood have been incorporated as two additional
priority boards with separate trust funds.)
These councils and DCWDC are sharing in project selec-
tion and development responsibities. Projects are suggested
either by DCWDC staff or the neighborhood and commu-
nication is maintained throughout the development of the
project. However, as the city's designated "project man-
ager." DCWDC exercises sole control over the "citywide"
fund and is responsible for determining and revising project
selection priorities which govern all project reviews.
Organization and Powers
DCWDC was chartered in September, 1972, as a private,
nonprofit corporation eligible for IRS designation under
IRS code 501 (C) (4). This designation entitles DCWDC to
receive Federal tax exemptions on business income but
not to pass on personal income tax deductions on individual
gifts it receives. As a quasi -public corporation, its 28-
member governing board is accountable to the city commis-
sion which approves appointments to the board and annually
renews DCWDC's contract agreement.
DCWDC combines many features of an administratively -
autonomous organization with a degree of local accounta-
bility associated with its role as city "project manager" for
housing and economic development.
Board Appointments
Twenty-two of the 28-member board of trustees of
DCWDC were appointed originally by the city commission
and are divided equally among representatives of (I) gov-
ernment agencies, (2) financial and business sectors and
(3) the community. Each of the remaining six board mem-
bers is appointed annually by the respective Neighborhood
Priority Boards.
Following initial two-year appointments by the commis-
sion, a trustee membership committee approved by the
initial board was delegated authority to make nominations
to the commission on an annual basis and assign three-year
staggered terms of office to the 22 board members,
Staffing Pattern
Except for an appointed executive director, DCWDC's
personnel is recruited on a non -political basis by the execu-
tive director. Original staffing consisted of a secretary and
three full-time professionals: the executive director, the
assistant director and a development analyst. Both directors
are former civil servants with backgrounds in city planning
and economics.
In 1975, the professional staff doubled in size between
April and September and now totals six professionals and
two secretaries. New additions include a consumer loan
specialist with considerable business experience; an urban
homesteading sales promotion manager. formerly a licensed
real estate salesman; and an ex -construction contractor,
who currently acts as construction manager for the home-
steading rehabilitation undertaken by DCWDC.
Funding Sources
DCWDC's primary source of capital and administrative
funds is its annual contract with the City of Dayton, in
which DCWDC legally is "reimbursed" for performing
"management services." Actually, the contract involves
capital grants appropriated by the city and placed under
DCWDC's management as the c"ty't: agent in makingdevel-
opment loans and investments. Officially, DCWDC-
managed funds remain the property of the city until spent;
thereafter they become DCWDC property.
Capital Grants
Initial capitalization for DCWDC came from two city
appropriations, $2.5 million funded out of the city's HUD
Planned Variations grant and SI.25 million from General
Revenue Sharing sources. These two appropriations were
critical in providing DCWDC with the flexibility necessary
to fund start-up costs, including administrative expenses.
Planned Variations funds were used to pay salaries and
normal office expenses that could not be covered by busi-
ness income for the first few years of operation.
3
i
Planned Variations monies also were flexible functionally
and permitted funding for economic development and
mixed -use projects as well as housing construction. Half
of these funds was allocated by the commission to a "city-
wide" account managed solely. by DCWDC, with the re-
mainder divided among the four "neighborhood trust"
accounts on the basis of relative population, unemployment
and per capita income levels within each Neighborhood
Priority Board area.
Technical Assistance
In 1974, the first full year of DCWDC's operations,
start-up costs were assisted further by a $57,000 technical
assistance grant from EDA. However. most of this year's
costs were supported by the initial Planned Variations and
General Revenue Sharing grants. During calendar year
1975, CDBG grants became the major source of funds,
CDBG funds were designated to fund two minority
business development grants, totaling $300,000, (half of
which was designated for use by Dayton's Model Cities
area residents), to capitalize a home improvement revolv-
ing fund of $825.000, to fund special urban homesteading
rehabilitation at $1.1 million.
Under this program. DCWDC directly purchases low-
cost foreclosed homes from FHA, rehabilitates the houses
and re -sells them recovering its direct costs ;and some ad-
ministrative expenses. Properties are sold at 85 percent of
their market value.
Administrative Costs
Private -sector contributions never have been sought to
fund any of DCWDC's operating costs. since these are
covered either by contracts with the City of Dayton or by
earnings from investments. (Private capital. however, has
been used in development projects and DCWDC has
participated directly in joint equity ventures with local
investors.)
Although DCWDC was incorporated legally in Septem-
ber. 1972, actually it did not set up its offices until March,
1973, and did not achieve full operations until well into the
same year. Calendar year 1974 thus represented the first
full year of operations; administrative expenses totaled
$189,600.for this period.
During calendar year 1975. the staff doubled and admin-
istrative expenses grew to $290,000, including $40,000
for a housing market study and $28,000 for promotional
costs of the "Urban Living" program, designed to attract
middle -income families hack to the city.
Legal Restrictions
Ohio state law specifically does not authorize puhlic or
quasi -public development corporations such as DCWDC.
For that reason, DCWDC was incorporated under the
general non-profit corporation statutes of the state. As
such, it has no special authority to issue bonds, acquire
property, etc.
The Ohio Irrracted Cities Act of 1973 (Ohio Statute
1728) also allow cities to grant property tax abatements
of up to 30 year,on property improvements. It must do so
through "Commmty Urban Redevelopment Corporations"
which acquire an maintain legal title to the property upon
which abatements granted.
Finally, Secuct 501(C)(4) of the IRS code prohibits
DCWDC from restributing dividends to any of its share •
-
holders. This ru:: does not hamper DCWDC significantly,
since its equity ces not represent private capital and since
corporate earnras may be re -invested in new revolving
fund assets.
. exible Operations
The City of Fivton intended that DCWDC operate in a
flexible way. Fc . that reason, the city's contract allows it
to utilize "... 3e..1. organizational and development tools
listed in this corral and any other techniques which can
advance the stamA Jutrposes of this program."
Since the statci purposes of the work program include
the promotion ir'riyate investment in the city "through the
use of various le. i and financial incentives," this has given
DCWDC cons erable flexibility' in its development
activities.
Investment Strategy
The range of a a1 and financial tools which DCWDC
can and does err.'loy reflects its "investments strategy"
approach towari urban development. Basically, this ap-
proach implies a nore direct and flexible use of public funds,
deployed so as ti maximize private/puhlic capital leverage
and to improve he benefit/cost ratios in terms of employ-
ment, personal ricnme. fiscal impacts and other economic
factors. In its owl words, DCWDC views such a strategy
as important for ca•eral reasons:
• "First, diffi:.ut projects sometimes require that com-
binations of sunsuits be applied, as opposed to just a single
subsidy;
• "Second, sire this is done with skill. difficult projects
can become no..anly feasible but profitable to the public
as well as private •ector; and
• "Third. the ;ley is to develop formulas for sharing the
risk between the private and public participants and to
strive for the greaest degree of leverage possible."
Public/Private Coordination
Aside from its uncial legal and financial powers, DCWDC
is also interestin tior the way it has combined many of the
attributes of a prvate entity with a good degree of local
accountability.
For instance. i.enjoys relative autonomy in such admin-
istrative matter as staff hiring and personnel standards,
but still is accountable to the commission, which must ap-
prove its capita' raiget and a quarter of its board members
each year. DC% DC is also responsive to locally -elected
Neighborhood !writs, Boards, which appoint six board
members each .-.ar.
The project TrYt. process also illustrates how DCWDC
coordinates withiohne and private sectors, including neigh -
a
rrs
1,
M.
boyhood groups. As noted earlier, half of DCWDC's
original Planned Variations funds was allocated to a "city-
wide" fund and the other half to four "neighborhood"
funds; with DCWDC retaining veto power over both funds,
Outlays from any of the "neighborhood" accounts re-
quire review by a nine -member Neighborhood Develop-
ment Council, composed of neighborhood representatives
with experience in finance, real estate and economic devel-
opment, Neighborhood Development Councils are ap-
pointed by their respective Neighborhood Priority Boards
and work directly with DCWDC staff in the preliminary
stages of project review.
Sensitive to Neighborhoods
Often this process involves delicate negotiations over
combining "neighborhood" funds (also subject to Neigh-
borhood Development Council approval) with "citywide"
funds, and DCWDC has proven to 'be quite sensitive to
meeting neighborhood needs in these negotiations. More
than 38 percent of DCWDC's outstanding investments
represents residential home improvement loans, and a good
amount has been lent to assist small commercial and retail
establishments.
Further in the work plan, the contract gives several ex-
amples of eligible development and organizational tech-
niques. Many of these tools —such as land write -downs,
municipal improvements, technical assistance, industrial
revenue bond sponsorship and SBA 502 loans —are rela-
tively common instruments already employed in many
other U. S. cities.
However, the work plan also lists such techniques as
loan guarantees, "seed" money to fund certain technical
and legal expenses associated with construction costs,
land -banking of property for development at a future date
and indirect property tax exemptions.
Broader Authority
It is interesting that most of DCWDC's more innovative
development powers are not listed specifically as examples
in the work plan, but instead fall under the broader authority
stated in the contract's general purposes, quoted earlier.
DCWDC has used this general authority to engage in a
number of unusual development activities: indirect equity
investment in projects. general subordinated leasing, part-
nerships, secondary financing and other creative financing
devices.
On the other hand, DCWDC still operates with consid-
erable authority as "project manager" over all DCWDC
funds. DCWDC is also responsible for determining and re-
vising the investment criteria which govern project review
and selection procedures. (This authority is subject, of
course, to indirect political checks, since a fourth of the
board is up for reappointment each year.)
The Stouffer Project
The Stouffer Hotel/Restaurant complex, now under
construction in downtown Dayton, illustrates how DCWDC
effectively has "levered" its own capital resources using
special legal and financial tools. In 1974, under authority
of the Ohio Impacted Cities Act (Ohio Statute 1728),
DCWDC formed and capitalized a wholly -owned, non-
profit subsidiary, called the Citywide Community Urban
Redevelopment Corp. ("Citywide Urban"),
A 1728 corporation passes property tax exemptions along
to private developers via low-cost leases which may include
purchase options to acquire title for a nominal cost at the
end of the agreement.
The leases on the property improvements (but not on the
land) correspond to installment sales, or so-called "financial
mortgage -leases," all of which -allow developers to deduct
depreciation from current business income while at the same
time receiving the local property tax exemptions passed on
from the legal "owner," in this case the Citywide Urban
Redevelopment Corp.
These dual tax advantages —local property tax exemp-
tions received as the legal "tenant" and Federal tax deduc-
tions received as the de facto "owner" —are important in-
centives offered by Ohio's Impacted Cities Act and show
how state legislation can "dovetail" conveniently with
Federal tax laws.
As shown in Figure 1, DCWDC utilized the following
methods to attract private investment to Dayton:
DCWDC Development Tools:
The Stouffer Project
I. Land Acquisition Grants' and Urhan Renewal Sub-
sidies: Using Citywide Urban as a legal intermediary,
DCWDC provided $174.000 indirectly to acquire urban
renewal land from the City of Dayton. At $3.80 per square
foot, this price represented a subsidized value, net of Federal
and local urban renewal land write -downs.
2. Subordinated Leases with Purchase Options: City
wide Urhan, in turn, offered a low-cost subordinated lease-
hold in land and hotel improvements to Stouffer's Dayton
Plaza (SDP). SDP is a limited -dividend partnership between
small local investors and Citywide Projects, Inc., a wholly -
owned subsidiary of DCWDC. SDP leases the land and
hotel property cost-free for five years and then at $16,000
per year.
Citywide Urhan separately leased the restaurant portion
of property cost-free to Montgomery County, which sub-
leased to the SDP partnership at rates sufficient to amortize
a county revenue bond issue used to finance restaurant
construction.
In 25 years SDP acquires the hotel/restaurant property •
titles for $l and may acquire the land for $130,000.
3. "Seed" Equity and General Partnership: DCWDC also
contributed $265,000 in capital to Citywide Projects, Inc.,
the general partner of SDP. Citywide Projects hold an equity
interest in SDP limited to $65,200, but has assumed a gen-
eral liability for all partnership risks.
Local investors provided SDP with $ I.5 million in general
equity, raised through the sale of 600 partnership units
priced at $2500 each. With Citywide Projects assuming
general partnership liability, private investors were afforded
protection against major capital loss.
4. Property Tar Exemptions for Developer: As permitted
by Ohio law, Citywide Urhan has passed on property tax
exemptions by entering into a long-term lease with SDP,
which, in turn, subleases to the private developer. As men-
tioned above. Citywide Urhan has assumed legal title to all
construction improvements over the life of the lease, but has
assigned property liens to financial and institutional lenders
as collateral to secure the debt.

5. Debt Financing: Institutional lenders stepped in with
$6.4 million worth of debt financing, First, a consortium of
local lending institutions providing $5,3 million in short-term
loans which were refinanced by Aetna Insurance Co. at the
end of construction. Second, local banks and S&Ls provided
another $1 million in tax-exempt revenue bond financing for
Stouffer's Restaurant, Both the Aetna mortgage loan and the
focal revenue bond were secured by first property liens.
6. Chattels and Fixtures: As its direct investment, the
developer (SRI of Dayton, Inc., an affiliate of Stouffer) pro-
vided commitments to finance additional equipment installa-
tion costs, mostly in the form of chattels and fixtures.
Presently, these are estimated to cost $ I .I million.
The direct economic impacts expected to occur within one
year of project completion, scheduled for the coming sum-
mer, include $3 million per annum in new wage and salary
income and $52,000 per annum in increased wage -tax earn-
ings for the city.
Property tax impacts will be negligible for the corning two
decades due to the local tax exemptions which have been
granted by the city.
This is actually a "maximum benefit" scenario, of course,
and assumes that development would not have occurred
otherwise without using these incentives.
Other Projects
As can be seen in Figure 2, DCWDC is also engaged in a
variety of business development activities, including com-
mercial restoration and relocation loans, industrial expansion
efforts and minority business development investments.
DCWDC's industrial investments include a $ 160.000 cost
of land assemblage, the land being sold to the Dayton Forge
and Heat Treating Co., which carried out a S'_ million plant
expansion expected to create 45 new jobs and retain 250
jobs.
In addition to Stouffer. DCWDC is also assisting another
large downtown development, the Court House Square Re-
development Project, currently planned as a combined mu-
nicipal center/commercial office complex. DCWDC made
three short-term loans to assist small retail establishment, in
their moves to the site.
Restoration Loans
DCWDC also is involved heavily in several commercial
restoration loans to shops and business establishments in the
historic Oregon district. Located adjacent to the Stouffer
site, these business improvements are expected to create
"spill -over" effects on the downtown business district and
on the Stouffer project in particular.
Loans totaling approximately $435,000 are expected to
create and retain approximately 140jobs in this district, not
including the indirect impacts on adjacent business.
In addition, DCWDC has committed its entire minority
business development budget and some additional "city-
wide" funds to assisting two minority -owned enterprises
located in the inner West Dayton Model Cities area.
Some $200.000 in expansion loans was made available to
the Dayton Independent Truckers Association to develop a
trucking park and depot station, and another $530,000 was
used to assist in constructing a minority -owned Medical
Service Center, which will provide most of its services to
Medicare and Medicaid patients. Another $174,000 in re-
maining funds was used to purchase X-Ray machines which
will be leased to the center.
Performance Measures
To date, DCWDC has invested $2.6 million in 15 com-
mercial and industrial development loans and investments
compared to $1.6 million in housing ventures. This has suc-
cessfully "levered" an additional $17million in new private
investments to finance $19.6 million in new capital improve-
ments for local businesses.
This represents a private/public capital leverage ratio of
almost 10 to 1 on economic development investments. Since
DCWDC has, been in operation for only two years, most of
these investments represent projects which are still under
construction or not yet occupied, which thus have not yet
produced permanent economic impacts.
Short -Term impact
Short-term construction impacts, however, are well under-
way in many projects now under implementation, which
DCWDC estimates have generated 568 employment man-
years already. No estimates are available on local wage -tax
revenues attributable to the construction phase of DCWDC-
assisted projects.
Assuming current millage and assessment rates,
DCWDC's commercial and industrial investments are pro-
jected to generate the following direct impacts in the first
year following' project completions: 1020 in new or retained
permanent jobs, $193,340 per annum in new wage tax reve-
nues and $63,t)00 per annum in increased real property taxes.
(See Figure 2.)
In addition, DCWDC has pending $1.3 million in com-
mercial/industrial development loans projected to attract
another $9.3 million in new private investment. Direct im-
pacts attributable to these pending investments are estimated
to create an additional 460 permanent jobs, $120,800 per
annum in new city wage taxes and $177,600 per annum in
increased property -tax revenues.
Finally, DCWDC also has invested $1.6 million in direct
housing rehabilitation loans, '.hich has raised property taxes
by $29,440 per annum. Pending home improvement and
homestead loans would add another $1.5 million in direct
loans with modest increases in property tax revenues.

Case Study #2:
•
Philadelphia Industrial
Development Corp.
The Philadelphia Industrial Development Corp. (PIDC)
represents another variation of the quasi -public citywide
development corporation, but has developed more along the
lines of a close -working partnership between the area
Chamber of Commerce and the City of Philadelphia.
Since its incorporation in 1958 as a 501 (C) (3) corpora-
tion, PIDC has served as a national model for industrial
development agencies primarily due to its success with in-
dustrial retention efforts.
What follows is a brief summary of PIDC's basic activi-
ties, an outline of its basic institutional structure, and a
description of specific projects which have benefited from
PIDC assistance.
Primary Activities
Land Banking
Land banking has been a key PIDC activity since 1961,
when the city created a special capital revolving fund valued
at about $18 million, $9 million from a general obligation
bond issue and the remainder from previous land sales.
Called the "Industrial and Commercial Development Fund;'
it is subject to the overview of the city's Commerce Depart-
ment, but is administered by PIDC. All proceeds from the
disposition of these land -banking assets are recycled back
into the fund which, in turn, can finance new site acquisition
and/or capital improvements.
As administrator of the Commercial and Industrial Devel-
opment Fund, PIDC can negotiate directly the final disposi-
tion price of land -bank transfers and site improvement costs
subject to approval from the city's director of commerce.
This is an important function since it provides two attrac-
tive inducements for private developers:(1) a readily -avail-
able supply of land parcels at below -market values and (2)
a capital improvements revolving fund which can be used to
assist in covering site improvement costs on individual trans-
actions. Thus, PIDC can negotiate a final disposition price
which represents an attractive investment for potential
developers.
Since 1961, PIDC has improved and marketed more than
1100 acres of industrial and commercial properties through
the city's land bank. Through 1974, the total value of these
transactions was approximately $140 million, and indicates
a high tumover relative to outstanding assets, now valued at
$20 million.
In addition, PI DC has entered into contracts for the mar-
keting and development of 400 acres of urban renewal land
assembled and transferred by the Philadelphia Redevelop-
ment Authority. A cooperative arrangement between the
authority and PIDC allows each organization to concentrate
on its own speciality: the authority assembles and improves
urban renewal sites and PIDC markets the land to private
developers.
Financial Assistance
PIDC also has offered convenient financing terms through
two financial affiliates —the Philadelphia Authority for In
dustrial Development (PAID) and the PIDC Financing
Corp. (PIDC•FC). Through PAID, created in 1967. firms
can take advantage of 100 percent tax-exempt mortgage
financing to acquire land and make plant/equipment
investments.
In addition, the Pennsylvania Industrial Development
Authority (PIDA) extends low-cost second mortgage loans,
through PIDC-FC, for terms of up to 25 years at current
interest rates of 4 percent.
From 1967 through 1974, more than 400 industrial and
commercial property improvements valued at $280 million
have been financed through PAID with tax-exempt mort-
gages worth $242 million. Over the same period, PIDC-FC
has channeled approximately $8.7 million worth of state
PIDA loans to assist industrial developments worth $22.3
million.
Prior to 1967, PIDC also sponsored directly $200 million
in industrial development improvements of which $150 mil-
lion to $ I60 million represented tax-exempt financing.
(In 1967, an IRS ruling prohibited PIDC from pledging its
general credit or assuming direct liabilities in any future
transactions. For this reason, PIDC-FC was established as
a legally separate corporation, but with the same officers and
directors as PIDC)
These financial assistance programs, combined with
PIDC's readily available supply of land -bank holdings, have
contributed a healthy growth in the city's employment and
tax base since 1958. Thus, through the end of 1974, PI DC's
combined financial incentives had assisted in more than 800
property transactions involving more than $500 million
worth of project improvements., The number of permanent
jobs created or retained by these investments totaled ap-
proximately 100,000.
Business Liaison
Business liaisonand technical assistance are other PIDC
activities mat have had much success. PIDC maintains cur-
rent listings of vacant land -bank holdings which it holds for
the city. In addition to these inventories, PIDC also keeps a
listing of other significant, transferrable commercial and in-
dustrial parcels which are privately -held throughout the city,
a listing which is updated regularly in cooperation with local
real estate brokers and dealers.
More recently, PIDC has also initiated an annual survey
of all industrial and commercial firms in the city which em-
ploy more than 50 workers. The survey, which is mailed
once a year, elicits general responses from employers re-
garding present and future needs for plant expansion, space
accommodations, transportation and utility improvements,
manpower requirements and zoning changes. PIDC is aim-
ing at a complete citywide survey of all such employers, with
follow-up phone calls to improve coverage.

Organization and Powers Capital Revolving Funds
Governing Board
PIDC was incorporated in 1958 as a private, nonprofit
501 (C) (3) corporation governed by a 30-member board of
directors appointed jointly by local public and private
sectors. A I5-member executive board consists of eight
business and industry representatives appointed by the pres-
ident of the Greater Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce
and seven ex-vlicio representatives of city government.
These city representatives include the mayor, city solici-
tor, finance director, director of commerce, chairman of the
City Planning Commission, president of the city council and
the city's managing director. The remaining 15 members,
nominated jointly by the Chamber president and the city's
director of commerce, are approved by the full executive
board. All PI DC directors serve one-year terms of office.
Staffing and Budget .
PIDC's administrative budget must be approved annually
by the board. City council must approve the capital budget.
together with any contributions the city makes toward ad-
ministrative costs.
A staff of 16 professionals currently includes a president
with experience in local government planning and urban re-
newal, formerly director of the Philadelphia Redevelopment
Authority; an executive vice president with 16 years of
background in marketing and sales, currently serving simul-
taneously as administrator of the Philadelphia Food Distri-
bution Center; a director of finance; a chief accountant; five
industrial and commercial real estate marketing specialists:
one full-time real estate broker, one civil engineer; two legal
counsels: one marketing -advertising specialist; and two re-
search statisticians.
In addition to its own full-time staff, administrative ex-
penses also cover fees for independent appraisers and audi-
tors plus real estate commissions for independent brokers
(limited to 6 percent). Settlement fees and taxes .must be
reimbursed from an individual transaction proceeds and/or'
the revolving fund.
Most of PIDC's administrative costs are covered by pro-
ceeds from property transactions, service fees (technically
earned by PAID) on mortgages, interest on bank deposits,
management fees and state operating grants. On all industrial
transactions financed with PAID tax-exempt financing, a
service fee of 0.5 percent is charged. computed on the
monthly amortization costs.
Service, fees on PAID commercial loans represent 1 per-
cent of the monthly amortization payment. PIDC also re-
ceives direct grants from the state under the Industrial
Development Assistance Act and smaller contributions from
the local Chambee of Commerce and city government.
In 1974, a large portion of PIDC's administrative budget
of almost $690,000 came from net sale and lease income
($137,385), service fees ($161,229), interest on time de-
posits ($161,040) and state matching grants ($90,415). The
cit) contributed $25,000 from its General Fund and the
Chamber added 52500.
Initial capital funding for the city's land -bank operations
came in 1961 from two sources, an in -kind contribution of
municipal properties, originally valued at $9 million, plus
proceeds from a $9 million general obligation bond issued
by the city. Since then, the fund has used interest rate differ-
ential (on time deposits versus interest due the city) to repay
portions of the GO loan.
However, the city assumed primary liability for repayment
of bond principal, and the revolving fund, in effect, has re-
ceived a capital grant from the city.
One of the more interesting features of the capital revolv-
ing fund is the way it can provide fully -improved sites for
industrial usage at a lower -than -market rate. PIDC's operat-
ing agreement with the city stipulates only that land -bank
disposition prices cover initial acquisition value, PIDC sale
or lease costs, and those capital improvement costs which
the director of commerce wants reimbursed to the fund.
PIDC usually plays an important role in negotiatingdisposi-
tion value. subject to approval from the director of commerce.
As a non-profit 501 (C) (3) corporation, PIDC cannot dis-
tribute any of its earnings to shareholders, but instead must
re -invest all profits in new assets. This is not a particularly
important limitation, however, since it does not prevent
PIDC from profitable real estate transactions, or from in-
vesting in short-term liquid assets.
Before Federal Aid
Compared to DCWDC, however, PIDC is somewhat
more limited in its ability to engage in transactions which are
not related directly to real estate development. PIDC's
origins date to 1958, at which time flexible Federal block
grants, such as Planned Variations, were not yet available for
economic development purposes.
Mostly for this reason, PIDC's operating agreement with
the city is addressed specifically to real estate development
and marketing, but does not extend to other forms of assist-
ance, such as equity ventures, small business lending. work-
ing capital loans or direct loan guarantees.
Philadelphia does not allow PIDC to pass on local tax
abatements on property it leases to private developers. Local
government and business leaders tend to view such tax sub-
sidies as less effective incentives than other forms of finan-
cial assistance.
Philadelphia Industrial Park
Almost half of the 1100 acres which PIDC has improved
and marketed since 1958 has been concentrated in the 650-
acre Philadelphia Industrial Park. Over an eight -year period
ending in 1972, PIDC has assembled, improved and mar-
keted the entire tract, which was vacant, undeveloped, land -
bank holdings.
More than 75 firms have located in the park, which has
attracted about $90 million worth of private investments,
and generated 15,000 jobs and almost $8.5 million per an-
num in wage and property taxes.
(A recent study undertaken at the city's request indicated
that the Philadelphia Indust:ial Park was netting the city
almost $13,000 per acre a year in wage and property tax
revenues.)

Case Study #3:
Pittsburg Economic
and Housing
Development Corp.
Introduction
The Pittsburg (California) Economic and Housing Devel-
opment Corp. (PEHDC) was organized originally in 197I as
a Model Cities neighborhood corporation. Since then,
through several new agreements signed with the city,
PEHDC has evolved into a quasi -public 501 (C r (3) cityw ide
development agency with important legal and financial
powers to promote housing, industrial and commercial
development.
• Pittsburg's current population is 27,000 and represents a
growing portion of the county worktoree. ,\cording to a
recent census projection, this will reach a million or well
over half of the Contra Costa County le%el, within 50 years.
Pittsburg is also diverse ethnically, with Italian, Spanish-
speaking, Oriental and black minorities representing about
60 percent of city residents.
Located in the heart of an industrial area approximately 40
miles northeast of San Francisco, Pittsburg is connected to
the greater metropolitan area by major state freeways, rail
links, Bay Area Rapid Transit and deepwater channels.
Local manufacturers currently employ more than 6000 in
the production of steel, paper. plastics, chemicals, liquified
gas. construction goods and various Tight processing indus-
trials. This compares to total county employ ment of 300,000.
Organization and Powers
Board of Directors
PEHDC was first chartered in 1971 as a non-profit corpo-
ration funded under the city's Model Cities program. with a
board of directors subject to city council approval. Aside
from the city's final approval, original by-laws governing the
composition of its2_5-member board state only that the board
should be "broadly representative of the community, with
emphasis on the Model Neighborhood Area."
As part of its transition from a Model Cities corporation,
PEHDC recently has amended its by-laws and entered into
a new contract with the city. Seven positions on the board
still will be subject to city council approval when current
terms expire, but replacements will be nominated by the
board of directors. The remaining 18 seats will be nominated
and approved by the board as the current members' terms
expire.
Board membership now is allotted specifically to repre-
sentatives of local business, labor and minority groups from
throughout the city, distributed as follows: labor and crafts —
six (including at least three minorities); business and profes-
sions-15 (including at least six minorities); general non-
managerial —three (including at least two minorities); -and a
Citizen's Advisory Council representative. No ex-officio
city officials or government agencies are included on the
board.
Terms of office for directors are three years and are stag-
gered to prevent a turnover of more than nine members in
any single year. Nine directors also constitute a legal quorum
for conducting business, except in emergencies, when as
few as six directors may take action on behalf of the whole
board.
Directors annually elect PEHDC's five officers, including
a president, two vice presidents —one for economic devel-
opment and one for housing —a secretary and a treasurer.
Any officer or employe of the corporation is subject to re-
moval at the discretion of the board.
Staffing and Administration
PEH DC's staff operates outside of the city's civil service
and includes an executive director. an economic develop-
ment specialist, a housing director, an administrative assist-
ant assigned to the housing mortgage subsidy program and
an office manager/housing counselor.
The executive director, formerly employed by the local
Chamber of Commerce, is a long-time resident of Pittsburg
with a BA in business communications. The economic de'. el-
opment director worked with the San Francisco Develop-
ment Corp.. has an MBA and currently coordinates SBA
502 projects and industrial park development. The economic
development specialist concentrates on facilitating SBA
guarantees for private lending and has a business and profes-
sional accounting background.
Administrative expenses are set forth in PEHDC's annual
budget, separate from several other capital funds it also man-
ages. Once the budget is approved, PEHDC is allowed to
make transfers between several capital accounts and its
administrative fund to satisfy cash -flow needs. To date,
however, PEHDC has operated entirely within its allotted
administrative budget and has not yet subsidized any of its
office expenses with capital funds.
The 1975 administrative costs totaled roughly $158,000,
a cut back from previous levels funded under larger Model
.Cities grants. Most of the cut backs were confined to a re-
duction in housing consulting fees.
Capital Funds
Capitalization for PEHDC has come mostly from Model
Cities and CDBG grants appropriated through the city bud-
get. (Like Dayton Citywide, PEH DC operates several capi-
tal revolving funds which are legally part of the city budget,
but which are actually managed directly by the corporation.)
From 1971 through 1975, PEHDC received more than
$2.2 million in grant funds and anticipates another $760.(X)0
through FY77. Currently, capital funds include $2.5 million
in gross assets, of which $1.2 million represents net equity
holdings.
11
Legal Restrictions Projects and Performance
PEHDC is not limited under IRS codes or California's
General .Non-profit Corporation Law, except for the re-
quirement that its earnings must revert to the corporation
rather than to shareholders. Unlike municipal corporations.
which are severely restricted by the state, PEHDC's activi-
ties are not hampered by any constitutional statute.
Instead, those few limitations which do apply to PEHDC
reflect Federal regulations governing the city's use of Model
Cities and CDBG monies. PEHDC's contract agreement
with the city, for example, prohibits any use of contract
funds as capital grants versus loans or investments. As
shown below, this does not prevent use of funds as interest
subsidies or loan payment deferrals.
SBA Ceilings
To the extent that PEHDC sponsors loans through its
SBA 502 affiliate, it is also subject to certain SBA regular
tions. These limitations place ceilings of $350.000 on in-
dividual project loans and prohibit working capital loans,
public landhanking. and loans for public acquisition of idle
plant facilities.
PEHDC has not been hampered significantly by these
restrictions. however, since SBA has provided direct work-
ing capital loans to many firms in the area and since CDBG
funds are available for land banking.
The city has added a few of its own requirements and in-
corporated these into PEHDC's latest contract. For in-
stance, PEHDC's equity investments in economic develop-
ment projects may not exceed 50 percent of project cost and
must he accompanied by a divestiture agreement pegged to
the profitability of the venture.
This stipulation is intended more as a protection to firms
which cannot afford large debt interest costs and which need
to lover their debt -to -equity ratios. As stated in PEHDC's
contract, "Equity funds will he used to capitalize individual
projects with conservative debt -to -equity ratios."
Powers and Tools
Among the economic development tools which PEHDC
may use are:
• loan guarantees
• interest subsidies
• interest and principal deferrals
• linked deposit private lending arrangements
• debt financing
• equity investments
• real estate development
In addition, PEHDC is allotted certain technical assist-
ance functions, including:
• market feasibility studies
• loan servicing (including SBA 502 loans)
• management assistance
Although this list of investment and technical assistance
functions is supposed to be inclusive, it still leaves consid-
erable flexibility to PEHDC. Terms such as "real estate
develtlpment" and "debt financing." for instance, have been
interpreted to include potentially property tax subsidies
provided by PEHDC. subordinated leasing. installment
sales, lease -hacks. and financial mortgage leases, subject to
the city's approval.
12
PEHDC has facilitated more than $2.3 million worth of
construction underway or already completed in Pittsburg.
with an estimated permanent employment gain of more than
200 jobs and a per annum property tax increase of $71,336.
Another $419,000 in direct SBA working capital loans
has been made available to more than 80 small business
enterprises. In addition. another $1.3 million in construction
financing is in the planning stage, with a projected property
tax gain of $38.491.
Of the total investment underway, $1.3 million represents
SBA 502 loans sponsored through PEHDC's financial affili-
ate, the Los Medanos Fund. Usually, PEHDC provides up
to 10 percent of loan value, with SBA and local financial
institutions providing the balance. The Los Medanos Fund
is minority controlled and has been quite successful in ob-
taining low interest financing from SBA.
A description of projects financed directly by PEHDC or
through the Los Medanos Fund follows:

which range from a metal fabricating business which requires
approximately 7000 square feet to a waterfront restaurant
which would require 11,000 square feet.
If the above projects are completed as expected, an addi-
tional $1,262,000 in new construction would result.
Industrial Development (PEHDC & City)
Los Medanos Industrial Center
In early 1975, PEH DC completed the development of the
21-acre Los Ntedanos Industrial Center. The center has all
public improvements complete. Utilities and water have
been installed in each parcel. An industrial association has
been established to control development standards and main-
tain landscaped areas. The total investment in the project
from both private and public sources is S690,1 10.
Multi -Purpose Facilities
PEH DC has constructed three multi -purpose facilities
which total 48,160 square feet at a total cost of $527,017.
Presently, I 1 .tenants are renting 30,000 square feet of in-
dustrial space. Of the II businesses, seven are new to the
City of Pittsburg.
Sale of Land
PEHDC sold one parcel of land to the Siemons Family
which has constructed a 14,000-square-foot building on the
site. The building currently is the location of three busi-
nesses, all of which are new to the City of Pittsburg.
P. E. O'Hair Co.
The P. E. O'Hair Co. is a large wholesale piping supply
company which has a number of locations in Northern
California. PEHDC staff spent considerable time with real
estate brokers who represented the company. The company
eventually selected a site at Loveridge Road and the Free-
way and is currently developing a facility.
U.S. Farmers Home Administration
PEH DC spent considerable time working with the FaHA in
attempts to generate grants and loans for industrial projects
within the City of Pittsburg. After preliminary work was
completed, City of Pittsburg staff assumed responsibility
for the'completion of the project.

generated.
Conclusions
It is an interesting historical note that quasi -public EDCs
often have evolved from earlier community development
programs initially funded under HUD Model Cities and
Planned Variations grants. Many of the EDCs which trace
their origins to these programs —such as DCWDC or
PEHDC to administer housing programs and
loan funds, in addition to their economic development
programs.
Secondly, quasi -public EDCs have been established
which apparently combine administrative autonomy and
more flexible development tools with a greater degree of
local public accountability than was experienced in earlier
urban redevelopment programs. In light of the continuing
concern over how to balance these distinct goals —profes-
sional efficiency, effective development capability and local
accountability —quasi -public EDCs appear to offer much
potential to local development practitioners.
Quasi -public EDCs may prove to be convenient mecha-
nisms for improving local coordination of neighborhood with
citywide economic development priorities. Partial institu-
tional autonomy may allow EDCs to provide technical as-
sistance for the formulation of sound neighborhood and city-
wide development strategies and to respond to distinct
neighborhood and citywide constituencies.

CIIAP`IER I - INTPODUCII:cn AND BACKGROUND
The following report has been written in accordance with our
Proposal dated DeceMber 8 and Contract between the City of Miami and
National Urban Dnveloperent Services Corporation (NUDSC) dated June 29,
1979. It is based on the "Approach to the Project" and the "Project
Scope of Work" contained in our proposal. That "Scrape of Work"
identified three major tasks to be accomplished:
Task I: "Identify Development Needs and Opportunities," which
covered:
- Definition of problem and need
- Policy franework
- Identification of development opportunities
- Program plan and program mix
Task II: "Analyze and Identify Staff and Financial Requirements
and Availability," which covered:
- Staff capabilities
- Financial requirements
- Finance sources
Task III: "Create an Organizational Entity for Program Implementation,"
which covered:
- Analysis of existing economic develoI- it nt organizations and
agencies
- Analysis of local considerations in creation of quasi -public
development entity and recommendations on the implementation
organization.
a
L
a
In keeping with the Scope of Work, the staff of MIC6C visited
Miami on seven occasions during the months of June, July, August,
and September and worked with key officials of the Office of Trade
and Commerce Development (cfrCD) at great length. It also net and
consulted with representatives of related city departments and
representatives of a .large number of public, private, and oormrunity

a1Arn R I:[ -- SUPUTARY
A. BASIC APPROAC71/ASSUMPTIONS
As indicated in our proposal, our approadi to the project was
predicated on a nunber of key assumptions:
1. Developing a comprehensive financial assistance program
and organization structure to implement it as specified in the request
for proposal should. be based upon and be part of a conprehensive
citywide economic and business development process.
2. Me 'financial assistance program and organization structure
should be placed in the larger .framework of an economic and business
development strategy for the city.
3. The basis for our recommendations with respect to the nature
and scope of the proposed financial assistance program and structure
would be the program plan and mix to be developed by the organization.
Further, as we proceeded on the project the following additional
asstnptions were developed.
4. The role and. function of the Office of Trade and Comreroe
Developutnt (O'1'CD) , (now having Departmental status) would be .
substantially expanded to cover business development and financial packaging
as well as the marketing and promotion function hid it had been
concentrating on.
5. The economic developTent planning function would be delegated
to and carried out by the Planning Department, working in close
collaboration with O'ICD and the proposed MX'.
3
i•
6. The new entity would provide highly professional business
development capabilities and financial resources on a centralized basis not
now available in the City of Miami and in the various organizations
involved in related and similar work.
7. The program of the proposed organization would be based on
a broad set of parameters providing business development and
financial services to minorities (Cubans and blacks), small and medium-
sized businesses, and encouraging broader participation in the larger
projects being developed in daArnto n Miami.
8. It would be based on an economic development management system
which would provide a prioritized, quantified, scheduled and balanced
program plan and mix and a quantified and scheduled basis for measuring
performance and benefits.
9. Organizationally, it would start with a small staff and budget,
using soue of the staff of the present arc Commercial . Services Unit.
10. Its structure would be a private quasi -public organization, on
contract with the City of Miami to provide business development, financial
assistance, commercial revitalization and technical assistance services.
11. It would try to maximize the utilization and leveraging of
local and federal ' resources and programs.
12. It would tie in with and provide.business development and financial
assistance services to existing local organizations, neighborhood and
community agencies, etc.
13. It would work closely with the Private Sector leadership in
the City, including banks, Chamfer. of Comreroe, etc.
4
13. r1 3 AND ttl ;CX)MMI ;NI)1 P I.C'J;=;
The report describes a plan to organize the Miami Dewlopnt_nt
Corporation (t'IDC) by building on and expanding the functions of OTC
and broadening its capabilities. The highlights of our -recommendations
axe:
1. The plan would provide the City of Miami with a quasi -public
organization, The Miami Development Corporation (1 C) , chartered
as a private non-profit coiiuration, and give it the legal ' basis bo
conduct economic and business developnent programs which the city is not
now Going.
2. It would also provide the capability for "packaging" various
financial tools and support mechanisms ncxa }ring successfully used in other
cities for business development, ea -triunity development, neighborhood
revitalization, etc., and tie these capital resources to city incentives
to ms.x mize the public Leveraging of private sector investment.
3. The objectives of the new organization, listed in detail
elsewhere in the report, would -include:
* The development of a broad job retention and creation
program, through citywide business development and
neighborhood revitalization programs including international
and downtown projects, etc.
* 1Thie provision of basic goods and services to the central
city and its neighborhoods, which market studies show are
not now being adequately served.
5
t•
a
ib
* The development of a program of. Technical and Management
expertise and services on an on -going basis to maintain
the economic viability of inner city businesses and
neighborhoods.
4. To achieve these objectives, the organization will carry
out work programs in three (3) major program areas: (1) Business
Development and Financial Packaging, (2) Neighborhood Commercial
Revitalization, and (3) Technical and Managenment Services. It is also
planned to concentrate on larger ventures so that total financings in
the first year are expected to total approximately $4,250,000.
5. The proposed organization, while privately incorporated, will
be controlled by and closely related to the activities and personnel of
the OTaJ and will provide the services indicated tinder a single "Delegate
Agency" contract arrangement with the city. The Board of Directors will
be composed of representatives of city departments and major business
and banking resources.
6. Me organization will be headed by Tlhny Crapp,Sr. and will have
a staff of six professionals operating under Jose Hernandez as Executive
Director; it will include an experienced business development manager, .
three professional business developers and a financial officer.
7. The financial resources of the MJC will b9 provided mainly from
ConTtn1nity Development Block Grant (C)I3G) funds but will also rely
on private investments where appropriate and available.
6
8. It is expected that the f..in st year's administrative costs
will. be $24].,400 and that the first year's venture capital requirements
will be $700,000.
C. IMI?LE1131F . `Ict Pr SPBCI'S/TR)'NSITICN
In recontrending the above program and organizational structure,
we believe that there are excellent prospects for achieving successful
results from the new program. While there are some legal questions
remaining to be clarified, to believe there could be an easy expansion
and transition of the cur. Lunt activities and programs of CTPCD to the
new oryanizationi. The program plan and mix showing 32 packages, amounting
to $4,250,000 and the other related neighborhood commercial
revitalization and technical assistance activities represent a conservative
and nodest beginning that we believe can be achieved in the first year
of operation, making alla..rances for two or three months of early
organizational and start-up activities. In this connection, we have
indicated strongly that the key element required to guarantee the
success of the new organization would be tlhe =potence and expertise
of the staff. This suggests the inportance of very careful recruiting and
orientation of highly professional and expert individuals for the open positions
in the organization.
D. BENEFITS TO THE CITY
The tw jor benefit to the city is that the new program and organization
will provide the City of Miami and its people with business development
and financial assistance services and capabilities not now available. In
so doing, it would bring to Miami the benefits of millions of dollars of
■
1

a
federal resources and guarantees that the city is entitled to but not
getting (Sl3T\ and MA loans and grants, for example).
Further, it could be a major factor in the identification and
financing of many opportunities not ncaa being addressed, enlarging the
economic pie and the range of beneficiaries who participate in the
economic life of the city.
The program plan has been so organized that a large percentage
of the packages -- approximately 60 percent -- would be minority
enterprises; another large segnent -- 25 percent -- some overlapping,
would be concentrated in two proposed neighborhood commercial
revitalization programs. Relatively smaller segments, ranging from
10 to 15 percent each, would be devoted to international, downtam,
and large project participations.
An effort has been made to .balance the proposed program mix so that
a maxi_rm.an of jobs and improvement of the city tax base would result. rest
important from the city's standpoint, we believe, is that it would
benefit substantially from its funding of the $240,000 administrative costs,
through the multipliers flowing from the over $4 million in
financings planned for the first year.

A. DEFINITION OF NEED
In orcler to structure an effective financial assist-ance entity
to support clevL..lotxn nt in a location, it is essential to know
the nature of financing which is likely to be required. We have
analyzed various- elements in the Miami economy and have considered the
,basic character of the project in the planned program mix in order -to
determine what the required or desired forms of financial support
are Likely to be required over the next several years.
rib rmike this determination of probable financing requirements,.
are haw analyzed local reports, institutions, and programs and from
that analysis have identified a range of specific 'project opportunities
and project types which will require scare form of financing to complete,
and which could benefit from the financial incentives or support
mechanisms which the city is cnntenplating creating.
The sources of information upon which this analysis is based are
the following:
- A group of planning studies prepared by or for the Miami
Planning Department and/or the Office of Economic Developrtnt
Coordination (Dade County), y) , which tarcaet on certain areas
or projects.
- The Miami CoirprehensiN.e Neighborhood Plan (1976-1986)
prepared for the City of Miami by a group of institutions and -
consultants.

- Program areas, opportunit.if�s, or project tyrcs which are
not currently being addressed but which we trlieve warrant
consideration as program options.
In this section we will summarize the information obtained from
the aunt sources, enphasizing the specific projects or project
types identified in or implied by these programs, and the' nature of
the financing support which is likely to be required. We will conclude
this section with an overall summary of the various forms Of financial
st.rpport: which could be required or desirable in the new entity.

2. Miami Comprehensive Neighlorhood Plan (1976-1986)
This technical report, prepared for. the City of Miami by a group of
economic and planning consultants • is the basis for much of the city's
ecrInouic development progranming outside of dc,:mtown. Part of the report
deals with the areas and programs analyzed above, and in such cases the
analysis will not be repeated. As in previous analyses, this will
analyze the referenced docinLnt to .identify specific projects or project
types which might benefit from a financial or develoi!rent support mechanism.
a) Neighborhood Commercial Devitalization
In addition to 1\llapattah, Little Havana, Little River, and Overtown,
other areas targeted for. possible Neighborhood Connercial Revitalization
include Northwest 36th Street (Wynwcxxl) and Coral Way (Coconut Grove) .
It appears that the needs within these areas are similar to those in other
convercial revitalization areas, and include:
1.4
1
a
1
1) Smaller commercial loans t:r expand invrmLories and undertake
minor physical improvements.
2) Fixed asset financing for expansions and new store
development.
b) Industrial Development
Under the category of industrial development will be grouped
manufacturing and "heavy" service activities such as trucking, warehousing,
equipment repair and other industrial services. The strategy calls 'for
development in several identified locations and within certain specialty
categories. The industrial type projects being proposed'include:
1) C,1L1ent Center (described in A-4) .
2) Mixed use commercial marine facility along the Miami
River in the Allapattah district, which might include a
seafood market.
3) I :use of the Florida East Coast (EEC) rail yards for
heavy industry.
Industrial development generally requires financing support of
larger amounts per individnat business than does oomu«:rcial development.
FurtherLlure, projects such as the conversion of FEC rail yards will likely.
require significant amounts of public investment for infrastructure and
land preparation. Financial or development support which would be beneficial
in stimulating thus. industrial development would be:
- Long term fixed asset financing for construction or renovation
of buildings and for heavy equipment.
- Infrastructure support,'sudz as land clearance and preparation,
installation of utilities and transportation for industrial
parks.
15
3
••a
1
- Tax abatements, land write-±M 1, and other di.rrrt operating
subsidies.
3. Program areas for Future Consideration
Based on our analysis of the Miami economy, we believe there are
development opportunities or program areas which are no.z in the
future. Since the financial assistance entity will be an on -going
activity, to the extent possible it is advisable to anticipate its
future as well as present functions. Obviously it is not possible
to anticipate all future ecnnomic development programs or activities.
Nevertheless, based on our brief period of involvement with Miami, we
believe sone future programs will require financial assistance or
related services.
a) fx .nto'rn Infili Development
The Central. Business District of Miami is currently experiencing
a building boom of high-rise office, oennercial, residential, and
hotel development. However, the locations for these buildings are
scattered throughout an area of approximately 30-40 blocks. In many .
cases, smaller and older buildings stand between those towers, representing
a blighting influence on the downtown.
Other cities experiencing a similar phenomenon are beginning
to consider downtown revitalization programs which concentrate on
restoration of these older buildings. It is likely that in the next
several years, Miami will also begin to consider programs to upgrade
the older downtown buildings.
1.6
t
The principal financing need in such cases is for long -teen,
fixed asset financing. Dbdernization of the typical older downtown
building of from three to ten stories (20,000 square feet to 100,000
square feet) would cast in the range of $300,000-$2,500,000. If the
package also involves a purchase of the building, the total financing
requirements would be considerably higher. In addition to the requirements
to upgrade properties, additional assistance may be required for the
development of operating businesses, particularly ground -floor retail.
In such situations, the financing needs are likely to be short-term
financing of fixtures, inventory, and working capital.
b) International Trade Development
Miami is rapidly becoming a center for servicing the large Latin
American trade market. This market is being served in two ways:
shipments of products from throughout the United States to buyers in Latin
American locations, and purchase of oonsumer goods by Latin American
consumers traveling to Miami.
This market is already a strong element in the Miami economy,
and has the potential for becoming even stronger. Support of this
growth from a financial assistance entity could happen in several ways:
1) Creation of manufacturing businesses to produce export
products for the Latin American market.
2) Development of specialty retail sales areas which cater
to the Latin American consumer traveling to Miami.
17
3) Expansion of the ex ort--related professional services
such as cbcun>ent processing, letters of credit,
licensing, etc; as well as logistical support such as warehousing,
trucking, and port facilities.
In many cases the nature of the financial assistance required -
to stimulate this development is no different than that which is
required to develop domestic manufacturing or ret-ail activities:
However, the entity may consider designing specialized technical
services oriented toward assisting locally owned minority and small
businesses in capturing a share of this export market.
SUMN,BY: Financing Requirements Indicated for Miami. Citywide Development
Programs
The above analysis has identified a set of financial incentives
and technical services which would support the implementation of
specific. projects or development programs in the City of Miami. This
section extracts from that analysis the specific types of financial
incentives and services needed in the Miami economic development
program. Reference will be made to Chapter X of this document; Catalog of
Federal, State and Local Incentives, to indicate in specific tern,
had the Miami Development Corporation will bring the required services
or assistance to specific development packages.

AND AC11VITIES
1. City of Miami
a. Department of Trade and Connercx
Formerly known as the Office of Trade and Commerce, this
department was formed in 1978. Its chief purpose at the time was
to encourage conic rcial development, service sector development
and international trade activity through a program of promotion and
information gathering/dissemination. Ibre recently, city officials
have perceived a need to supplement the promotional activities with
a program of business financial and technical assistance. Miami seem to
offer a unique opportunity for many minority businesses, for example,
but such businesses often need more assistance than a promotion group
can give.
This report outlines the nature of the financial mechanism and
business development program being proposed for the Department of Trade
and Commerce.
b. City Planning Deparbmnt
The City Planning Deparblent has also become involved in economic
development during the past 2 years. An EDA 302 Economic Development
Planning Grant has made it possible for the department to engage in
two major types of economic development activity.
1. CEDS - The city has contracted with Gladstone
Associates to produce an economic analysis and development strategy
study as a basis for a CEDE document. This is due by the end of this
year. .
21
2) Market and Project Feasibility Studies The
earliest market studies produced by the Planning Ixptuftnient were rather
superficial but more recent reports include a rather extensive
feasibility analysis of some proposed development in the Biscayne
Boulevard area. Studies of these types are likely to become a major source
of identification of. development opportunities for the Miami. Developrient
Cot oration .
c. Assistant City Manager for Develolxrr-_nt
the Assistant City Manager for DeVeloprent coordinates and supervises
activities of the Department of Trade and Commerce, the Planning
Department, and the city's zoning and building permit functions. Hence,
he has administrative responsibility for all economic development activities
for the city.
2. Dade County
Key development agencies and authorities associated with county
government include:
:
a. The Office of Economic ae elopmant Coordination
This office, which is part of the County Manager's office is
responsible for overall economic development planning and coordinates
economic development implementation activities for the county. This
office received an EDA grant in 1975.
b. The Office of Comnunity D2velopnent Coordination
Also located in the County Manager's office, this office
coordinates the distribution of CDBG money.
c. Industrial Devc. lopirezit Authority
The Authority is Dade County's instrument for issuing industrial
revenue bonds. I'bst industrial revenue bonds issued in Dade County or
the City of Miami are issued by this group; sore bonds may be issued
by authority of the City Commission.

ORGANIZATIONS
1. NEDA
;llDA appears to be by far the most ampetent business development
group in the area. NEDA packages approximately $6-7 million of small,
mostly Spanish,_ business financings each year. Loans average
$75-100,000. The majority of NEDA packages involve SBA loans or
guarantees. NEDA provides very little in-depth technical assistance to
its clients.
2. Urban League
The Urban League provides technical assistance to black businesses
in an 8-county area including Dade County and the City of Miami. A high
proportion of assistance has gone to minority construction contractors
in terms of helping to obtain procurement contracts. For the year ending
June 30,1978 the League's -statistics show 57 packages amounting to
$2,014,897; in procurement work they show 121 "actions secured" amounting
to $6 ,149 , 519. The group would like assistance with opportunity

all but two or three are virtually non-existent. Only two, Verde
Capital. Corporation and Universal Financial Service, appear to be

4. County and City -funded Organization
A variety of com unity economic development groups are funded
by county and city community development funds. These groups
typically operate programs of business packaging and technical
assistance though very few business packages have emerged from'the
process so far. These include:
a) Mimi -Dade Chamdrr. of Commr_ce - Business Development
Assistance Program
Funded by the county in the Fall of 1977, this group specializes
in providing technical and packaging assistance to small black
businesses and entrepreneurs in the Model Cities area.
does not provide any direct financial assistance to businesses and
has had very limited success in securing bazk and SBA financing
for business packages.
b) SBOC
Also funded by Dade County, this group
equivalent of the Miami -Dade Chamber's Business
Program. It operates a program of technical/packaging assistance
to businesses, publishes newsletters, conducts regular workshops,
and arranges meetings with trade representatives, etc.
It does. not have the funds to provide any direct
assistance to businesses and has also had limited success
bank and/or SBA financing. At one time, SBOC referred some business
packages to NEDA but this practice no longer takes place.

Funded by the City of Miami, this agency is recognized by the
city as the coordinating body in the Little Havana area. It has a
contract with the city to carry out beautification and public works
projects; a public works grant by EDA of over $4 million has just been
announced by the group. '.Phis is not a business packaging group.
d) Contractors 'Training and Development, Inc.
This city and county funded group provides technical andSome
financial assistance to minority construction contractors. The enter
appears to have a somewhat better' than average staff capacity compared to
the other groups but its financial assistance program (guarantee)
is underfunded. From September 1, 1977 to May 31, 1978 the group
had put together 11 approved loan or bond packages worth a total of
$286,090 according to a county evaluation report.

This city -funded organization operates in the field of
economic development. It has not successfully packaged a bank or SBA
business loan to our knowledge.
f) Little-Piver Comerce Association Business

This county -funded group specializes in providing technical
and packaging assistance to small businesses and entrepreneurs in'

Not involved in development packaging as such, but does carry
out a program of promotions for Miami, and an industrial recruitment
program.
c) Local banks and developers

13. CRITERIA FOR VEI''I'URE SELECTION
'the specific ventures which are selected to receive the services
and financial assistance through the Miami Development Corporation
should conform with the criteria outlined be164:
1. Lacational Criteria
- The venture must be located in the City of Miami.
- If possible the venture should be located in one of the
areas identified by the City for special treatment
(neighborhood ctinnercial revitalization, gan«nt center,
etc.) .
2. CharacterisLics of the Entrepreneur
- The entrepreneur should have available capital or equity
equal to at least 10 percent of the total capital requirements.
- The entrepreneur should have at least five years of
experience in ownership or nanacernent of a business similar
to the business to be financed.
- At least 50 percent of the businesses to receive the services
of Miami. Development Corporation should be owned by minority
individuals.
29

t
a
101
3. Viability Criteria
- 1V.1 ventures receiving financing directly from MDC or
referred to other institutions by MDC must be economically
viable, as determined by MDC technical staff.
- Cenerally,rmarginal "mom and pop" type businesses tend not
to be viable. Furthermore, the limited benefits which can
result from assisting such businesses, as compared to
personnel and financial resourars required for the assistance,
do not justify the assistance. Therefore, in most cases,,
assistance will not be provided to businesses with fewer
than five employees.
4. Pesouroe Commitments
- Financial packages should Maximize the use of private
capital. The ratio of private capital to public capital
should be at least 3 to 1.
- Financial packages should also nvximize the return on
public investnent. Each business receiving direct financing
from a public sector source should create at least one
new'perrrk1nent job for each $5,000 of public investment.
5. Employment Considerations
- To the extent possible, jobs created should be targeted to
low and moderate -income individuals .
- To the extent possible, jobs should be the type ,which serve
to raise the skill level of low and mxlerate-inoone
individuals.
- Priority should be given to ventures which place jobs in
high unemployment areas.

and ranking
(11 sanple of each of the above is att adiec1. )
31
in response to a request made that we provide a "ranked order" -
of Miami's'neighbarhoods based on a set of criteria for neighborhood
selection which we would reoom mid, we have given consideration to
nine neighborhoods which were identified by c7TCD. Due to the limited
time available to analyze these neighborhods in depth with respect
to the "critical factors in making recommendation", shown as Sample 3,
we have prepared a ranking based'on the three categories of factors contained
therein, that is economic, physical and state of readiness. (See chart
attached.) Based on the scoring shown on the chart, the ranked order of
neighborhoods is as follows:
1. Downtown
2. Little Havana
3. Little River
4. Aliapattah
5. Northeast Miami.
6. Model Cities
7. Coconut Grove
8. Wynwood
9. Overtcxwn
Based on this ranked order, it is our reoomlEndation that Downtown not
be given assistance since it does not really need the help of a
neighborhood commercial revitalization program; also that only sections
of Little Havana be considered since major programs have .already been
developed in that area. This would leave Little .River and Allapattah
and possibly Northeast Miami as candidates for consideration if only
two neighborhoods were to be chosen in accordance with the MEC plan.

DEVELUPMFilT PIDGP \M OF MIAMI
The Miami Development Corporation will be the lead organization
in planning and implementing a program of financial and technical
business assistance for small and minority businesses, neighborhood conercial
revitalization projects, industrial retention projects, international
trade developuunt projects and activities, and, small to medium-sized
business packages within larger development projects (e.g. downtown) .
Basic functions of the corporation will be to identify and develop
business opportunities, formulate an annual program plan based ,upon
identified opportunities, package business deals, provide technical
assistance to businesses, work with merchants and neighborhood groups,
amni develop financial programs and mechanisms to support business development.
In short, the oorpuration will be a financing mechanism with a business
development planning, packaging and technical assistance staff capability.
Considerable discussions have taken place regarding the role of
the Planning Department and the new corporation with respect to economic
developrn nt planning. The resulting. agreern nt is that the Planning
Department will be responsible for longer term; physical development
planning activity while the Department of Trade and Comiurc e will be
responsible for shorter -term business devrlopttnt planning. The two
depar-tnrents will work very closely with each other since on type of
activity affects the other. Many of the larger, longer term projects,
for exanple, will result in business opportunities for entrepreneurs
who can be assisted by the development corporation. It will be the
corporation's responsibility to search for and identify such
opportunities and provide the necessary assistance to entrepreneurs.

E. STRNIECf
The proposed program for the Department of Trade and ConiierGL
and the Miami Development Corporation grows out of previous
and current economic development activities of the department.
Generally speaking, the new program will broaden the functions of
the Department to include business development and financing within
the context of its overall developmztnt program. The program plan
for the new business development function schedules and quantifies all
anticipated deAtlopne.nt projects, costs and benefits and provides the
basis for on -going implementation and evaluation of the corporation's
program. Chapter VI of this report contains the initial program
plan for Miami Development Corporation.
The transition from the existing programn to the new program
will he acamplished through:
1. The creation of the corporation.
2. The funding of the corporation through a contract with the city.
3. The transfer of certain D_pa:rt:Trent of Trade and Commerce staff
to the corporation.
4. The hiring of additional staff with particular types of
expertise by the corporation.
5. The execution of projects listed in the program plan.
I.t is anticipated that a key dcpartnwnt staff member will be
appointed to the Board of the corporation in order to maintain
accountability and control by the city.

CHAPTER V - OPIX)RI' NI` . II]: NTII'Ic x1'LCRd
Opportunity identification is one of the critical steps in the
economic development planning, programing and management
process since it is the link between the policy framework and the
development of the program plan constituting the essential activities
of the organization. Too often the objectives of an organization
are set on a lofty and "mother love" plane anci the actual programming
rarely carries out these wishful and ambiguous objectives. The
opportunity identification process as carried, out by MEC should avoid
this by starting out with a clear picture of the character, quality,
and direction that the organization and the city want to develop in
Choosing the various projects, businesses, areas, and constituencies they
want to work with in keeping with the stated objectives. Similarly,
the Choice of the projects needs to achieve a political and economic
balance to make sure that all of. the people of the city benefit from
•
the proposed activity and that there is clear agreement on "what it 'all
adds up to".
As will be indicated in the program mix, a broad range of opportunities
will be developed since it is the intent of. the project to maximize the
opportunities identified. In effect, the total "economic pie" for. the
City of Miami will become a larger one inwhich more people can share and
participate. Accordingly, the opportunities will be analyzed by kind, size,
location and by industry sector to provide the mix to he agreed upon by
the offices, board and staff of the proposed Miami bevelopment Corporation.

It has already been inclicaLed that the tT? ix a Tod percr2ntage
of the packaging -- appro::imately 60 percent -- for minorities; that
approximately 25 FxJroent of the work would be focused in neighborhoods;
1.5 percent in clowntc>.m projects; 10 percent in international trade,etc.
OLher projects tliats may cleveiop significant business opportunities -
are the garment .enter and goverment canter. Other major projects
now being planned will be analyzed carefully for development
opportunities which may be. "buried" in the early, ov rall.planning of
the projects. The key issue is that the organization become known tU
all of the thief actors in the economic life of the community -- bankers,
n:Aailers, ebNielopers, real. estate and non-profit neighborhood develoFrrs,
etc. -- who will cY-xm to recognize thatthe ttC is ready and available
to provide business devt 1otmhent. and financial packaging services to worthy
projects on a citywide basis.
Most important as a major source of business opportunities and
projects will be the work of the Economic Der.teloprent Planning Division
of the Planning DeparLnrnt of the city. Its work in connection with the
preparation of studies on area marketing, neighborhood strategy areas,
transit subway stations, and neighborhood planning should be very
productive in identifying opportunities of a business developnr_nt nature
for the tTDC. The work programs of both the Economic r?evelopnent Planning
Division and the MIX: will be coordinated through regular u.+ kly greetings
which will also help determine what kinds of activities and projects
are ncxa being planned on a long-range basis by the Planning Departnent
Will. Le, )rr-_

asstnptions underlying the approach to the project, the stated objectives,
criteria and strategy of the organization, and the opportunity .

projects have been prioritized by kind, size, and cjeographi.c.location.
With respect to kind, they oantain minority businesses, small and

these elements will make an important contribution to the
productivity of the organization and the character, quality and direction
of its activities and public irnagc,. As indicated earlier, the City,

O1APT R VII - r•t) 1.'I.)RING N'II) EVALUATION
The purpose of the monitoring and evaluation task is (1) to
evaluate progress vis-a-vis the program plan and (2) to revise and
update elements of the plan and the planning process as needed.
Periodic reporting of program progress provides the factual -basis
for anaylsis and evaluation. Monitoring and evaluation takes on
three major dinr-_nsions :
A. ME SURING PERFORMANCE
NC E
The basis question here is "haw did actual performance ecxipa e
with planned performance?". For instance, hew many projects got cone?
If some are not done, v4w not? If partially come, haw many? Dicl
thoy get done on time? If not, haw far off sdiedule? Do projects get
done within their budget? If not, haw much is the cost overrun?
Another, more subjective, question, is to look at the suir, total
of what has been accomplished over the year and evaluate "Mtlat does, it
all adcl up to?". Is the balance and character of activities in accordance
with what was planned? Do accomplished projects oonplerrent one another
or are there c nflicts? Should next year's program aim to redress
imbalances in last year's accomplishments?
13. MEASURING BENEFITS
Benefits resulting from development projects should be measured
vis-a-vis stated objectives regarding jobs, taxes, private investment
.and possibly such other indicators are sales, new or expanded
businesses, income, etc.
39
m mom!^
Special attention should be given to the distribution of
benefits to specific target groups such as minorities, low and
moderate income persons, or the long -tern un iQloyed. For example,
if 1,000 jobs are to be created during the period of a year, how
many are planned for minorities or disadvantaged? What opportunities
have been created for minority entrepreneurship, procurement and
participation in the economic process either in terns of equity
participation or other forms of participation (e.g. project management,
policy developzm nt) ? As above actual performance should be
Oompared with planned targets.
C. NEA.SUREMmT OF ODST AND COST-EF'FECFIVFT.ESs
Finally, the costs of development projects should be examined

Corporation is designed to promote efficiently and economically a
process of business development throughout the city. Its basic
objective will be to expand, retain and develop business activities
that will assist in the stabilization of the City's tax base and
provide employment opportunity for the residents. The basic
structure will be designed to insure the maximum flexibility in
operations making it possible to modify, adjust, and update its
functions in accordance with the economic dcveloprcent requirements of
the city.
Legal Entity
The agency will be incorporated as a non-profit entity in
accordance with the Laws of the State of Florida. Its By -Laws aria Articles
of Incorporation will be designed to qualify for tax exempt status
under Internal Pevenue Code Section 501 (c) (3) . (See attached
Articles of incoipuration and By -Laws.)
Contract with City
The Corporation will function under a "Delegate Agency" contract
with the City of Miani and will operate as a quasi -public entity. (See
sample contract format) .

To insure tha tthe objectives of the City of Miami are priority
activities within the quasi -public entity, the following will be included
in the contract as a minimum:
1. Scope of Services

to be performed.
2. Time of Performance
A specific time frame in which activity is to cnnnreioe
and terminate.
3. Compensation and Method of Payment
Amount of compensation for services to be rendered which
would be suppOr_ted by a detailed budget and made a part of
the, contract. This section would set and control salaries
in terms of positions and salary adjustnints. Other operating
sections of the budget should be flexible. This section
should also include a clause that "All unexpended or
unencumbered monies as of the end of each contract period.
will revert to the City of Miami". However, actual fund
transfer may not occur because of contract continuity, but
unexpended funds would be transferred to future contracts.

of the City of Miami; conpliance with local laws,
assignability and audit should be clearly spelled out in
this section of contract.
4. Other Terns and Conditions
Transfer of rights, title and interest to the City of Miami
should be clearly indicated as a condition of the contract as
v.ell as the reversion of all assets -and other non -expendable
property purchased with contract fuels in case of dissolution
or termination of Corporation.
Matters peculiar to the operations of the City of Miami in
regard to its relationships with outside agencies should be
included in this section.
Characteristics and Features of Quasi-Pd)lic Development Companies
Many localities have made significant ficazt advances in economic planning
and in programming capital improvements for economic development. However,
the last and perhaps most critical link -- the public -sector leveraging of
private sector investments in urban economic development -- has proven
more difficult. Quasi -public citywide economic development corporations
appear to offer potential as local development institutions capable of
effectively performing this latter function.
There are several characteristics that distinguish quasi -public -Economic
Development Corporation (E1X') from local government agencies or private -
sector organizations;
413
1
1 i
a
1. A quasi -public EX in the City of Miami wi 11 11cit.&.-? administrative
autonomy combined with politi.cal accruntrrbili.ty.
2. The legal status of a quasi -public I.IX.: is one with a private
non-profit basis, with the ability to utilize many important powers
which are otherwise prohibited to municipalities under most state
constitutions.
3. r111e cjoverniny 1x'ard of directors should lx composed of a mix
of pulbl.i.c and private officials as wc?11 as ex-offic.io rrenurers
from local govenunent: agencies. This mix of ptb1i.c/private
rtrnbership often can induoe additional leverage from local
investors and lenders.
4. City-wide economic' do x ].opnent oer porat.ions may assist housing
and neighborhood cle'.elopnent projects even though they are
basically oriented to:rarcl maximizing ewnomi c ix ne fi.1 s
throughout the city.
5. The nixed public/private ixoard can provide a useful
institutional setting for improving coordinations b2.tween the
public and private sectors, and for eliciting additional private
capital eonuri.t:nrnts from the local business community. The
board will. most likely be able to intiuc wore participation
f.rorn local financial institutions as well. as from pri.vatr�
business finis.

nonprofit corporation, the permissible uses of community development
block grant and local development company funds, and the existence of
possible constraints in Florida or. City of Miami. _statutes, .ordinances
or codes to the formation of such a nonprofit corporation with
participation by the city.
The participation of our firm to this point has related to review of
the Miami Code and Charter, Florida statutes, case law, and federal
statutes, regarding possible participation in the nonprofit
corporation by City oCl.i.cer:;, officials ur tnn11110 , i.ncic.trt.i.nt] the
question of possible conflicts of. inLeres.;L. In addition, we are
reviewing provisions relating to contracting out of federal economic

PART I: THE CHALLENGE
PART I: THE CHALLENGE
Miami now faces an important economic development challenge. Like
other urban centers throughout the country, the city is losing upwardly
mobile residents and viable businesses to less congested and often lower
cost suburban locations. Concurrent with the dispersal of "central
marketplace" functions, vacated neighborhoods are deteriorating and pro-
perty values are declining. Simultaneously, increasing public service
cost burdens result in severe fiscal pressures.
But this challenge can be met through solutions designed to stimulate
private. sector employment opportunities and strengthen the city's tax
base.
Parameters for Economic Development Strategies
Four basic economic development goals recommended as the basis of a
comprehensive, overall economic response strategy are to:
-- generate new jobs for the city residents;
- - upgrade the quality of employment opportunities;
- - increase personal income levels; and
-- expand the city's tax base.
Primary among these is the need to provide employment opportunities
for city residents.
In order to gainfully employ the existing labor force as
well as additional entrants to this pool in coming years,
many new jobs must be created.
T
Given forecast levels of future population, 20,000-24,000
new jobs will be required by 1985 to meet the needs of
Miami's expanding labor force alone, whether employed in-
side or outside the city.
Barring significant changes in the distribution'of resident
and non-resident workers, 30,000 new positions will be re-
quired in the city -- 26 percent of all Dade County gains
during this timeframe -- to meet the needs of Miami's grow-
ing labor force.
The City's Role in Economic Development
Government involvement is essential to the successful realization of
these economic development goals in light of the challenge facing Miami.
Through judicious actions the city can maximize benefits derived from
both private and public commitments in the future.
Among the excellent opportunities afforded in this regard
are Miami's
evolving role as a major international trade and finance center, its in-
creasing attraction of foreign tourists, and its expanding base of busi-
ness and health care sectors serving a large southeastern Florida region.
A well -designed targeted response aimed at capitalizing on
these and many other assets identified in the course of
this evaluation serves as an initial point of departure for
the city's economic development program.
Up to one-half of the required city "at place" jobs can be
generated through such efforts, complementing parallel
initiatives designed to assist Miami residents in obtaining
a larger share of regional job opportunities.
I-2
•
PART II: THE OPPORTUNITY
PART II: THE OPPORTUNITY
•
Desired levels of economic growth for Miami in the period ahead can be
achieved by:
-- nurturing and preserving existing economic activities;
and
-- capturing appropriate shares of projected regional
gains.
The number of new "at place" jobs required to adequately employ the
city's labor force through 1985 is estimated at about 5,000 annually.
Given regional growth and Miami's competitive position, we judge that
an effective, comprehensive economic development program would assure up
to one-half of this job target level. In order to fully meet the challenge of
gainfully employing Miami's expanding labor force, complementary efforts
to place city residents in suburban based jobs will be essential.
This two -pronged strategy will be greatly enhanced by the avail-
ability of rapid transit now under construction in Dade County. Linking
the southwest corridor and Hialeah to downtown Miami, this $930 million,
20.5 mile transit system will tie in to a $164 million Downtown People
Mover system. The availability of dependable, convenient and rapid intra-
county transportation will broaden the city's appeal as an accessible
employment center and improve the ability of city residents to get to
suburban Dade County jobs.
In addition to benefits derived from this significant public improve-
ment, prospects for success of Miami economic development efforts must be
viewed in a broader regional context. The outlook for Dade, Broward and
Palm Beach counties, therefore, forms a point of departure for evaluating
the city's opportunities in the period immediately ahead.
•
•
Miami Economic Region Outlook
The scale and character of forecast economic growth for the Miami
area, highlighted below, are based on continued long-term national growt;t,
with any short-term downturns offset by larger -than -average gains in suc-
ceeding years.
Employment Gains: The Miami economic region will grow by
approximately 127,300 jobs between 1978 and 1982, according
to projections by the Florida Department of Labor and
Employment Security. The, forecast 2.9 percent average an-
nual increase represents a general continuation of past,
impressive long-term trends, and implies rapid recovery
from any immediate recession -related declines.
Of the 1.2 million jobs anticipated in the region in 1982,
approximately 58.5 percent will be located in Dade County.
Qualitative Employment Characteristics: The quality of
employment opportunities that may be available to Miami
residents is partly reflected in the occupational mix of
likely job increases in Dade County.
Reflecting substantial service and government growth, white
collar positions will increase sharply in the 1980's, with
average annual gains of 9,900 (2.8%) per annum anticipated
in Dade County.
Personal Income: By 1982, payrolls generated by added Dade
County employment will account for almost $1 billion more
in personal income, or a "real" gain of 14 percent over 1978
levels of $7.4 billion.
Governmental Revenues: Dade County economic growth at-
tributable to expansion in services, trade, manufacturing
and government will result in appreciable fiscal gains
generally associated with these sectors.
Specific Miami Opportunities
Following extensive analysis of the city's economic base in the con-
text of the three -county region, a series of industrial"targets" has been
identified in relation to prescribed Miami economic development objec-
tives.
Growth Industrial Targets. Among the sectors offering significant
growth potentials are:
II-2
Tourist -Related Industries; encompassing hotels, eat-
ing and drinking establishments, real estate develop-
ment, construction and amusement and recreational ser-
vices.
Business Support Services; in a variety of office -using
industries associated with "center place" functions.
/Health Care Services; linked to the substantial,
region -serving medical institutions presently located
within the city.
International Trade; linked to Miami's role as a "gate-
way" city.
Financial Services; building on Miami's position as one
of the nation's leading banking centers.
Light Manufacturing Activities; keyed to the plastics,
electronic equipment, instrument, printing and publish-
ing,, and furniture industries.
Business Retention Targets. Equally as important, preservation of
existing business activities in prominent industry sectors will complement
an overall city economic development program.
These retention efforts should also be focused on specific industry
segments, including:
1. Retail Trade; in comparison shopper goods, serving the
larger southeast Florida region (in addition to conveni-
ence goods and services provided to the local popula-
tion).
2. Wholesale Trade; accommodating as many existing estab-
lishments as possible which capitalize on the city's
location within the larger metropolitan context to re-
ceive, subdivide and distribute major commodities.
3. Primary Manufacturing; in conjunction with apparel,
leather, and food and kindred products.
The scope and character of these growth and retention opportunities,
briefly described below, serve as the basis for specific economic develop-
ment strategy recommendations with respect to "targets of opportunity"
presented in Part III of this Executive Summary.
II-3
1. Tourism. Historically an important component of the Miami eco-
nomy, 108,100 persons were engaged in tourist -related activities (hotels
and otner lodging places, eating and drinking establishments, real estate
development, construction and recreational services), in Dade County in
1978.
0f p.articular interest to the city has been the recent and rapidly
expanding level of international tourism from both Canadian and Latin
American sources. By recent estimates, these groups constitute almost 20
percent of Dade County's visitors.
Additionally, while nominal (3 percent of all tourists) at this time,
Mexican and European visitors represent potential new significant markets
to the city.
2. Supporting Business Services. Directly linked to the city's role
as a financial and commercial center are a variety of supporting office -
using industries localized around the downtown.
Overall, these business services -- including advertising, building
cleaning, computer and data processing, consulting and equipment leasing
-- increased by nearly 8,000 positions between 1972 and 1978, going from
20,900 to 28,600 during the period.
Sharp gains have been noted following the 1974-75 recession years and
the expectation is that this sector can continue to realize substantial
yrowth potentials in the future as Miami's commercial and financial role is
further enhanced.
3. Health Care Services. A true "growth industry" nationwide, health
care services recorded a 6.5 percent per annum growth rate in Dade County
for 1972-78, going from 28,000 to 39,000 positions.
Generally unaffected by economic downturns, the industry gained in
absolute terms in 1974 and 1975 despite severe recessionary impacts.
II-4
Centered around Miami's major teaching institution, Jackson Memorial
Hospital, a substantial opportunity exists for multiplying activities in
connection with thissector in the future.
4, International Trade. Reflecting the city's increasing role as an
international "gateway," appreciable employment gains were registered in
Dade County's transportation and utilities sector (encompassing local and
inter -urban passenger transit, trucking and warehousing, water, air, and
miscellaneous transportation services together with communications), with
total jobs going from 56,500 in 1975 to 59,700 in 1978.
Port -related transport and corollary transportation services are par-
ticularly relevant to the city's future economic prospects. Though rela-
tively small at the present time, these sub -sectors have shown significant
growth in the past few years and planned port expansions will likely result
in even more dramatic increases in the long term.
5. Banking and Finance. Directly related to increases in inter-
national trade, Miami is rapidly becoming one of the nation's major inter-
national financial centers. The city now boasts 14 foreign banks, 14 Edge
Act banks and 12 domestic financial institutions with active international
departments.
Per capita deposits in Dade County at the present time have been
estimated at $4,400 -- a level 18 percent higher than that for Atlanta
long considered the financial hub of the southeastern United States.
Reflecting this quantum leap in activity, Dade County employment in
the banking sector gained an average of 4.4 percent annually from 1975 to
1978, going from 9,000 to 10,200.
By far the overwhelming majority of the county's financial institu-
tions are located in the city. All told, 26 of Dade's 37 banks have
II-5
0
offices in Miami and, as a group, these establishments account for two-
thirds (67 percent) of total county deposits.
6. Manufacturing Activities. Four discrete sectors targeted for
economic growth or retention include:
a. small, specialized light manufacturing;
b. apparel;
c. leather products; and
d. food and kindred products.
a. Small Specialized Light Manufacturing: This group encompasses:
-- rubber and plastics;
-- electric and electronic equipment;
-- instruments and related products;
-- household furniture and furnishings; and
-- printing and publishing.
Taken together, these sectors currently represent an appreciable seg-
ment of Miami's industrial base, and with careful planning and supporting
public programs can continue to make significant economic contributions,
especially in relation to the scale and quality of job opportunities.
b. Other Manufacturing Sectors: Apparel, leather products, food
and kindred manufacturing sectors -- already prominent in the city -- also
offer specific city -based advantages.
In spite of nationwide declines in apparel and leather products
(owing to foreign competition) and city downturns in food processing (due
to plant decentralization) Miami's economy can be strengthened in these
sectors provided contemporary facilities can be made available.
II-6
•
•
Essential features of any city program aimed at retaining
or regaining plants that have moved away must include well -
located manufacturing facilities at competitive prices,
reasonably accessible to the airport. Facilities of that
type, coupled with a skilled labor force (particularly
minority women), represent an important economic develop-
ment opportunity for the city that can be enlarged in the
period ahead.
7. Retail Trade. While generally following population patterns,
Miami's "central place" retail functions have been reinforced through both
downtown revitalization and a substantial infusion of Latin American shop-
pers.
Representing a major employment sector, this industry accounted for
almost one in every five county jobs in 1978 and generated approximately 12
percent of Dade's personal income.
Miami's role in regional retailing will expand with an increasing
employment base and higher tourist volumes. Moreover, through sales to
foreign shoppers, retailing serves as a "basic" export industry which
supports other industry sectors through the economic multiplier process.
8. Wholesale Trade. At present, 49,100 persons are employed in Dade
County's wholesale trade industry, up from 38,800 in 1972. Over one-third
(37 percent) of the county's wholesale activity was accommodated in the
city in 1972, but given nationwide trends toward decentralization together
with significant warehouse development in unincorporated Dade County in
recent years, the city's share of total county activity in this sector has
likely declined since then.
Nevertheless, wholesale trade remains an important component of
Miami's economic base.
Given highly specialized needs in conjunction with the port and the
existing city population base, together with continued linkages with a
II-7
variety of other industries that will maintain and expand operations with-
in the city, wholesaling can remain an important -- if not expanding --
part of Miami's future economy.

Economic Development Strategies: The dimensions of Miami's
challenge and opportunity form the framework for weighing
prospective city actions against prescribed community ob-
jectives and available city resources.
A series of recommended responses in light of indicated
development opportunities is presented in Part II1 below.
I1-8
PART III: THE RESPONSE
PART III: THE RESPONSE
An overall city economic development program is best viewed in the
context of:
-- generic (basic) strategies; and
-- specific action programs.
Generic (Basic) Strategies
A series of fundamental responses in support of Miami's economic
efforts should be directed at:
1. Improving the climate for business activity in the city.
2. Enhancing the city's image as a place to do business.
3. Providing functional and competitively priced physical
facilities for business expansion and relocation.
4. Upgrading skills and capabilities of Miami's human capital
resources.
(' Providing financial and technical assistance to city busi-
nesses.
6. Attracting middle and upper income resident households.
1. Improving the City Business Climate
The essential objective of this generic strategy is to create a recep-
tive and efficient network to deal with the needs of industries moving into
the area as well as those relocating, expanding or remaining at their
present facilities.
Five basic responses would directly support this "business welcome
wagon" and service program.
These would include:
.5)
a. Implementing a "business outreach" program.
b. Creating a business "resource panel",
c. Establishing a business "hotline".
d. Expediting city decision making.
e. Relieving tax burdens and providing specific incentives
where appropriate.
a. "Business Outreach". Th.e primary purpose of this program would
be to encourage ongoing dialogue between city businesses and the municipal
government so that grievances may be aired, concerns raised, and city
feedback provided. One recommended forum for this interchange is a "town
meeting" at which various city officials can meet informally with a small
group of local business people. This exchange, which can be varied in
format, should be ongoing as an integral part of the city's continuous
economic development efforts.
Four primary purposes would be served including:
-- Conveying the city's concern about its overall business
climate.
-- Ascertaining specific needs and problems of the business
community.
-- Educating business people as to various city -sponsored
programs.
-- Serving as an "early warning" system to enable the city
to deal with potential business closures and/or reloca-
tions in a timely manner.
b. Business "Resource Panel". A broad selection of representa-
tive industry leaders and businesspersons should be mobilized to serve as a
"resource panel." Drawn from existing resources such as the recently
established Economic Development Policy Advisory Council, the New World
Action Committee and other leadership levels, this advisory group would
respond to specific inquiries by members of the business community and
serve as a "welcome wagon" for new business prospects.
c. Business "Hotline". A central business service center should
be established which can provide assistance, respond to inquiries, and
refer questions to other agencies where appropriate.
This program opens a direct line of communication for those with
specific business problems and also offers insights as to the nature of
business concerns and recurring difficulties with city services.
d. Streamlining the Decision Process. A "fast track" economic
development process for meeting inquiries or requests on the part of busi-
ness organizations seeking to locate within the city or expand their pre-
sent operations should be established.
The importance of a streamline government processing system cannot be
overstated. All other things being equal with respect to locational cri-
teria, extensions in processing are equated with "lost time and costs" and
thereby directly affect success or failure in attracting new enterprises
or retaining existing ones.
e. Incentives. In broader terms, the city should formulate a
program of tax and other incentives with respect to targeted industries
that meet specific ongoing needs.
Financial incentive programs should be examined with a view to assisting
industries during early, more precarious start-up phases. Moreover, on a
case -by -case basis, other assistance -- in the form of development bonuses
for more intensive land utilization or accelerated infrastructure con-
struction in line with the city's capital improvement program -- should be
considered.
III-3
2. Enhancing Miami's Image as a Place to Conduct Business
National and even regional perceptions of southeastern Florida fre-
quently fail to recognize the city's substantial business and financial
base.
This image problem can and should be overcome by an effective promo-
tional campaign.
Three discrete elements should be considered in that respect:
- - the geographic coverage of these marketign efforts.
- - the "themes" that may be incorporated within promotional
materials.
-- the specific industries toward which certain of these
efforts should be targeted.
a. Geographic Coverage. A balanced program for promoting the
city's image regionally, nationally and internationally is recommended in
order to maintain a steady series of "promotional reminders."
Paralleling those efforts, however, coverage of Florida and the
greater Miami area is of considerable importance, as a great many of the
new industries in the Miami area come from within Florida or the metro-
politan area itself.
b. Promotional Themes. Perceptions of the city are frequently
confused with neighboring Miami Beach, thereby masking the considerable
assets and resources available for business and industrial activity.
While stressing Miami's livability with respect to climate and other
aesthetic values, care should be taken to go beyond the "sun and fun"
message and direct attention to Miami's businesslike attitudes and recep-
tive industrial climate.
Specific assets stressed in these promotional efforts might include:
III-4
-- the city's role as one of the nation's largest inter-
national financial centers;
-- the city's position as an expanding trade and transpor-
tation hub of major proportion;
-- the availability of a skilled and bi-lingual labor
force;
-- the centrality of Miami within a large and growing
regional market; and
-- the availbility of a diverse and expanding economy.
c. Targeted Industries. In conjunction with these general pro-
motional efforts, more selective, pinpointed marketing should also be
undertaken.
These efforts should be directed at specific growth industries,
including:
Printing and Publishing: small firms, particularly
those with Central and South American clients and those
engaged in printing travel brochures, advertising sup-
plements, or publishing magazines;
Rubber and Miscellaneous Products: small firms
producing goods for Latin export or for local building
and scientific instruments industries;
Electric and Electronic Equipment: small firms produc-
ing electromedical products, particularly ultrasonic
equipment, and electric equipment for Latin American and
Caribbean export;
Instruments and Related Products: small establishments
manufacturing medical and surgical instruments for local
and Latin American markets; and
Furniture and Fixtures: manufacturers of casual furni-
ture, particularly rattan, upholstered, light oak frame
and patio pieces.
To this compilation may be added a variety of others that are identi-
fied and discussed in greater detail in other volumes of this report
series.
III-5
3. Available and Competitively Priced Physical,Facilities
The city's ability to retain existing businesses and attract new ones
would be greatly enhanced by a current and "instantaneously retrievable"
inventory of available industrial facilities. This. compilation -- which
should be built around available (but currently diffused) information from
various public and institutional groups -- would allow the city to present
to prospective businesses all salient features with respect to available
industrial land and improvements.
Recognizing that an industrial. inventory can be an extensive and time
consuming effort, our recommendation is that certain areas be given prior-
ity at the outset to meet current and emerging needs.
Foremost among these would be:
-- the fashion district; and
-- other light industrial and wholesaling nodes.
4. Human Capital Resources
Among Miami's assets with respect to attracting new industries and
preserving old ones is its human "capital" -- its current and future labor
force.
In this regard, two points should be emphasized in the city's.future
economic development promotion activities. These would encompass:
a. present skills vested within the labor force, including
bi-lingual capabilities; and
b. the hard-working and upwardly mobile characteristics of
that labor force.
The aspirations of Miami',s workers should also be supported by a.
variety of public and private education and training programs, including:
III-6
private business schools;
industry focused programs;
repair and maintenance programs;
vocational education; and
-- specific government sponsored training.
City activities in this area should be aimed at achieving the best
"fit" between skill training and emerging industry needs.
5. Financial and Technical Assistance
In combination with the aforementioned generic economic development
strategies, including notably the business "resource panel," a series of
basic technical and financial services should be offered to Miami's busi-
nesses.
Various steps in both of these areas have been initiated by a number
of local government offices. It remains, however, to provide a focal point
around which services of this type can be furnished and -- of equal impor-
tance -- made known.
a. Technical Assistance. Included in this area would be a number
of key functions pertaining to successful business operations. Among
those would be:
management counseling;
legal consultation;
auditing/accounting and financial guidance;
promotional advertising and marketing;
inventory control; and
research, development and retrieval of previously estab-
lished operational information.
III-7
These services can be provided on a "one-on-one" basis and throJ;'1 a
variety of "group" techniques including seminars and workshops.
While several federal and state programs should be utilized as part of
this effort, community voluntary service would account for a large'propor-
tion of the technical resources assembled.
This would be best accomplished through a full-time, technical assis-
tance staff within the Office of Trade and Commerce Development which could
coordinate and complement the services of area businesspersons.
b. Financial Assistance. The core of this program component would
encompass both advisory services and specific assistance in meeting work-
ing capital and other business requirements.
The scope of these activities can be comprehensive including:
-- capital and loan packaging;
- means and sources of equity financing;
-- debt financing and loan guarantees; and
-- related financial considerations.
Once again, a variety of federal and local programs should be
utilized. A two -level program is envisioned:
-- The first, focused on identifying potential financing
available from other sources; and
-- The second, related to the creation of a development
corporation -- as is presently under investigation -- or
other similar vehicle which could leverage the "munici-
pal equity" thus established.
c. Target Industry Sectors. As a point of departure, a number of
industry groups which reflect the basic strength of the Miami economy can
be emphasized for initial technical and financial assistance.
III-8
These industries include:
- tourism;
-- specialized light industrial activities;
-- wholesale trade
-- retail trade; and
-- international trade.
6. Middle and Upper Income Households
Although the principal focus of the generic economic development
strategies is on "industries" as such, corollary community development
objectives cannot be overlooked.
The attraction of new industries or the retention of existing ones
frequently is inextricably linked to close proximity of persons with high
education and corollary income capabilities.
Accordingly, an integral part of any economic development strategy
must be maintenance and even intensification of the city's present commit-
ment to attracting households of this type.
Toward that end, components of this community development strategy
might include the following:
-- Encouragement of high-rise residential development at
selected locations along Biscayne Bay.
-- Continued support of ongoing residential redevelopment
programs, such as those planned for Overtown.
-- Further support of the development of a "New -Town In -
Town."
Related Action Programs
In support of the generic strategies outlined above, a series of more
specific responses would also be appropriate.
III-9
In general, these would focus around:
1. Geographic areas for future activity;
2. Facilities and other physical resource needs; and
3. Industry -specific training programs.
1. Geographic Focus
Included in this program would be the following:
-- providing industrial parks; and
-- enhancing and capitalizing on established city "at
place" assets.
a. Industrial Park Resources. For the city to remain competitive
with other suburban communities, it would be advantageous to develop in the
near term one or possibly two industrial parks featuring contemporary
improvements.
This "industrial park resource" would be useful in retaining busi-
nesses currently considering relocating out of the city and possibly at-
tracting back others who have left to nearby communities.
The 50-acre FEC railroad yard property appears to be an excellent site
for this type of development. It provides, among other features, access to
the regional expressway network and sufficient land to create a unique
industrial environment. We understand that the city is presently investi-
gating ways to fund a study of options available for this site.
A second park might be considered for the Civic Center area, with a
view toward accommodating food and beverage wholesale functions and medi-
cal related instruments and electrical equipment manufacturers in that
area. In contrast to the FEC property, however, this location would
require an extensive site acquisition and assembly program.
III-10
Competitive Priced Offerings: Any industrial park contem-
plated by the city must be competitively priced to meet suburban market-
place alternatives. Accordingly, a variety of techniques would have to be
considered by Miami in relation to "delivering" such spaces.
Among these would be land write -downs, inclusion of infrastructure
development costs by the city, provision of financial incentives through
favorable interest rates, and other similar features.
b. Capitalizing on Existing "At -Place" Assets. In addition to an
industrial park, a variety of other "geographic areas" should be enhanced
by providing necessary supporting services.
These areas include:
-- The Central Business District;
-- The Port;
- - Coconut Grove;
-- The Civic Center Complex;
- - The new Convention Center; and
- - Biscayne Bay and related waterways.
The direction that potential activities might take in relation to
each of these "at -place" assets is noted below.
i. The Central Business District: The CBD, as a major nuc-
leus of business, service, and financial activities within the region, can
support future increments of economic development in a number of specific
industry areas, including:
- - retail trade;
- - tourism;
-- business services; and
-- banking and finance.
To encourage future growth in these areas, the city should support
appropriate private sector initiatives with technical and financial assis-
tance and focused promotional efforts. The city should also continue to
work with other government entities to maximize beneficial transit impacts
and to develop solutions to downtown circulation and parking problems.
ii. The Miami Seaport and Related Activities: The Port of
Miami is presently a. major international trade gateway as well as the
largest cruise port in the nation. Planned improvements of the port will
support further expansion of Miami's international trade sector.
The proposed World Trade Center will reinforce Miami's role as an
international gateway. As a result, the city should utilize this important
additional "at -place" asset in promotional materials and other recruitment
efforts.
As part of those efforts, Miami should also capitalize on the large
cruise passenger market by encouraging week -ends in the city as an added
"total vacation" trip bonus.
iii. Coconut Grove: Already well established as a major
specialty retail/entertainment center and tourist attraction, public im-
provements now underway will underscore the appeal of Coconut Grove.
Complementary supporting activities in the form of merchant and busi-
ness assistance programs and alleviation of parking shortages (where feas-
ible) now under consideration, will. strengthen these established func-
tions.
iv. The Civic Center Complex: Health service activities and
food and beverage operations already in this area should be expanded:
III-12
Health Services: As the largest medical facility in the
region, Jackson Memorial Hospital represents a major economic
development opportunity for Miami.
The city, working in conjunction with hospital adminis-
tration staff, should focus on new business prospects
interested in locating near the hospital. Where needed,
financial and technical assistance should be provided to
targeted health services and related activities.
In addition, the city should assist in site assembly and
consider possible financial incentives (land write-
down, etc.), if necessary, to stimulate development in
the area.
-- Food and Beverage Sector Activities: As part of pro-
spective industrial development initiatives, efforts
should be made to create a nucleus of food and beverage
manufacturing and wholesaling operations in the Civic
Center area. Consideration should be given to a city -
sponsored farmer's market to stimulate private invest-
ment and generate spin-off activities.
v. The Knight Center: The Convention Center and hotel com-
plex now under construction in the central area should be used as a vehicle
for expanding convention related tourist activity in the city. This facil-
ity should be both actively promoted in the "convention circuit" and
utilized in various public relations efforts to demonstrate the dynamic,
vital character of Miami.
vi. Biscayne Bay and Related Waterways: The water amenities
of Miami are important in several ways. First, they contribute in large
measure to the overall physical attractiveness of the area as a place to
live and work. Second, they support the trade activities centered on the
port. And third, they provide the infrastructure necessary to a burgeoning
marina/marine industry within the city's economy.
III-13
Accordingly, prospective economic development programs formulated in
the future should make maximum use of these distinctive water amenities.
2. Facilities and Physical Resources
Two principal programs focused on key city physical resourceshave
been proposed.
The first, mentioned earlier, would be an inventory of all available
industrial land and improvements. The second would be initiation of a
"shopsteading" program designed to assist new, small business enterprises.
a. Industrial Inventory. The desirability of a comprehensive compi-
lation of city industrial land and improvement assets for businesses seek-
ing a Miami location, or those expanding within the area, lies in readily
matching "economic demand" with "available supply."
Once in hand, this information can be used for other purposes as well.
Foremost among these could be stimulating and encouraging new indus-
tries through the provision of "incubator space" which would be properly
sized to meet the needs of start-up firms.
b. Shopsteading. A relatively new concept in which vacant commercial
property, including abandoned or tax delinquent improvements, are turned
over to the city and resold for nominal fees, this program has been suc-
cessfully implemented in Baltimore and other communities.
Since small business represents an important component of Miami's
overall economic base, the feasibility of initiating a prototype pilot
project of this type in the city warrants further investigation.
To be successful, however, shopsteading would require careful exami-
nation of both the subject properties that might be made available and the
enterprises contemplating moves into such facilities.
III-14
3. Industry -Specific Training Programs
In addition to generalized programs noted previously, a variety of
specific vocational educational activities can be helpful in deepening the
skill levels of Miami's labor force. Building on programs currently pro-
vided by existing groups, the city should examine target industries in
which training programs of this type can prove useful.
Included in that respect would be the following:
a. Light Manufacturing. A substantial level of unskilled labor is
employed in manufacturing activities targeted for retention and expansion
within the city.
Foremost among these are the needle trades, where manual dexterity
carries a high premium. Although little formal training is required for
sewing machine operators and leather stitchers, speed is important.
Therefore, familiarity with equipment and experience in handling garments
and leather goods would be helpful to new entrants to these industries.
These trades. are virtually excluded from CETA programs at present.
Accordingly, local efforts to introduce sewing machines and associated
manual skills'into the ,local educational system are particularly impor-
tant.
Business involvement -- including the donation of sewing machines and
other equipment as well as the provision of individuals to assist in
designing and implementing training programs of this type -- might be
sought in this respect.
Specific training required in other light manufacturing industries
targeted here should be directed at:
-- Food and Kindred Products: background courses in mecha-
nics, air conditioning, refrigeration, electronics and
industrial maintenance.
-- Printing and Publishing: craftsmen (image assemblers,
skilled pressmen, etc.T and managerial skills.
4114
-- Rubber and Miscellaneous Products: general familiari-
zation with the industry.
-- Electric and. Electronic Equipment: general industry
familiarization for unskilled and semi -skilled workers
and assemblers, together with more technical courses for
electric engineers.
-- Instrument and Related Products: general familiari-
zation for production workers and more specific skills
for professionals and para-professionals engaged in
clinical chemistry.
-- Furniture and Fixtures: skilled and semi -skilled
workers including large numbers of sewing machine opera-
to.rs.
In addition to these industries, more specific attention should be
given to the building management and maintenance industry in regard to
substantial developments that have taken place in the Central Business
District, as well as other large-scale residential and non-residential
buildings.
-- Educational Resources. The full complement of suggested
training for these selected industries cannot be fur-
nished through governmental sponsored programs.
Accordingly, the city should identify specific skills
required over time and take all appropriate steps
through programmed university and other institutional
courses of study to assure that an adequate supply of
trained individuals in these categories can be expected.
b. Banking. A substantial number of bi-lingual clerical personnel is
needed by the industry. Moreover, a large proportion of highly educated
financial specialists is also required.
The city, in conjunction with the public school system and local
institutions of higher learning (e.g., Florida International University)
can make known these needs and their corollary implications for financial,
international trade and comparable courses of study.
III-16
0114
c. Tourism. Training programs pertaining to a variety of specific
needs within this sector have been offered from time to time. Unique among
these has been a program at Miami -Dade designed to enhance service levels
among these workers.
In light of the sensitivities of this industry to shifting market
supports -- especially where persistent problems become more widely known
-- the efforts here should be expanded to insure that tourist activity
generated by the new convention center, among other city assets, can be
well supported through high quality personnel.
Career Counseling and Job Guidance. As a complement to the
aforementioned industry'specific training program, continued outreach in
the form of counseling to advise city residents of available job opportuni-
ties and to assist persons in meeting basic interview -screening "entry
application," a job guidance center is recommended. Implementation of
this type of program, particulary if linked to expanded state employment
services, can measurably advance the successful realization of reduced
levels of unemployment and underemployment in the city.
* * * *
Economic Development Commitment
Realization of prescribed Miami economic objectives will require ex-
tensive and sophisticated action programs and necessitate coordinated
mobilization of a wide variety of city resources.
This effort would begin at the individual enterpreneur/corporate re-
sponse level and would incorporate direct city catalytic roles. The objec-
tive would be to obtain reinforcement from actions taken at both levels and
gain the beneficial "multiplications" that can result.
Finally, the foundation of an effective development program rests on
basic factual information that highlights current strengths and weaknesses
of an area's economy. The city's commitment to ongoing analysis of local
and regional issues through monitoring key economic indicators is clearly
evident. A vital and critical "first step" in the overall process, con-
tinued updating of the challenge, opportunities and responses set out
above should now form an integral part of The Miami Economic Development
!ram.

PART I: THE CHALLENGE
PART I: THE CHALLENGE
The economic development agenda for our nation's cities today must be
directed to (1) providing jobs and income for area residents and (2)
.04
preserving and expanding the local tax base. The strategies presented in
this report address priorities to achieve these prescribed policy objec-
tives.
Miami, as other urban centersthroughout the country, is losing up-
wardly mobile residents and viable businesses to less congested and often
lower cost suburban locations. Concurrent with the dispersal of "central
marketplace" functions, abandoned neighborhoods decay and property values
decline. Simultaneously increasing public service cost burdens result in
severe fiscal pressures.
Solutions to this dilemma involve stimulating private sector employ-
ment opportunities and strengthening the city's tax base.
Parameters for Economic Development Strategies
Four basic economic development goals in response to past declines
are to:
generate new jobs for city residents;
upgrade the quality of employment opportunities;
increase personal income levels; and
expand the city's tax base.
The parameters governing Miami's economic development strategies with
respect to these goals follow.
I-1
NeJobs. Primary among various economic development objectives is
the provision of jobs to city residents.
This goal is especially significant given Miami's current appreciable
unemployment and underemployment problems.
In order to gainfully engage the existing labor force as well as
additional entrants to this pool in the coming years, many new private and
public jobs must be created.
The dimensions of these needs by 1985 (conditioned by "acceptable"
unemployment norms) are illustrated below.
-- 1985 Labor Force. The estimated 345,000 persons living in
Miami constitute a labor force of about 180,000. Contrasting
with Dade County's current seven percent unemployment, ap-
proximately.13 percent of the City's labor force is without
work. By 1985, published forecasts 1/ indicate that Miami's
population will range from 350,000 to 360,000 with a corollary
labor force of between 190,000 and 195,000.

Needed Job Opportunities: The number of positions required for city
residents during 1979-1985 should be predicated both on meeting an expand-
ing labor force and on bringing Miami unemployment rates closer in line
with the current county level of seven percent. Toward that end, the
following parameters would apply.
Miami Labor Force

- at 13% unemployment

8,000-13,000
20,000-24,000
* Conservatively based since no allowance is made for underemployed
persons.
Average Annual Job Requirements: From 1,300 to 2,200 net
new jobs will have to be created for city residents each
year by 1985 merely to keep pace with anticipated labor
force gains. Were reductions in unemployment targeted to
a seven percent level, these requirements would escalate
sharply to the 3,300-4,000 range per annum.
Implications for the City Job Base: Assuming continu-
ation of recent trends in Dade County commutation pat-
terns 1/ and moderation of current excessive levels of
city unemployment, 30,000 net new positions must be
created in Miami between 1979 and 1985. This translates
to a net gain of 5,000 jobs per year, on average, and
implies a 26 percent capture of forecast county employ-
ment growth, a level equivalent to estimated 1979
"shares."
1/ Based on 1970 and 1975 sample survey census data on journey -to -work
patterns, it is estimated that city residents will fill 33 percent of
all new jobs in Miami and 10 percent of all new jobs elsewhere in the
county. In addition, an estimated 10 percent of all employed city
residents will work outside Dade County.

Improved Employment Quality. A concommitant economic development
employment objective is to upgrade the quality of jobs available to city
residents, thus engaging the problem of underemployment as well as that of
unemployment. Quality of employment, as generally reflected in occupa-
tional categories and wage/salary levels, will be a function of:
- - characteristics of city economic growth
- - corollary county business expansion, and of primary importance
- - the types of jobs filled by city residents.
While anticipated changes for the "economic region" will circumscribe
the prospective quality of Miami employment opportunities and those for
other area jurisdictions, important and effective initiatives can be
undertaken by the city to assure improved employment prospects for its
residents in line with targeted industry and occupational groupings.
Increased Income Levels. Per capita and family incomes are generally
lower for city residents as compared with persons living elsewhere in the
I-4
•
county. Although not a definitive data base, recent estimates published in
Sales Management's Survey of Buying Power indicate that median family in-
come levels in Miami are 20-25 percent less than those of Dade County as a
whole.
Economic development objectives aimed at increasing personal income.
levels are directly linked to providing job opportunities for unemployed
persons and upgrading positions for the underemployed. Another equally
significant objective in this respect is to broaden Miami's attractiveness
for higher income in -migrating households through policies designed to
upgrade city neighborhoods and residential areas.
Expanded Tax Base. As with most major urban areas throughout the
nation, Miami relies heavily on property and other local taxes to pay for
needed city services. For Fiscal Year 1978-79, local revenues are pro-
jected to represent over 70 percent of total general funds.
In order to ensure adequate fiscal revenues in the years ahead, steps
must be taken to preserve the existing tax base and expand revenue -produc-
ing activities.
The City's Role in Economic
Historically, economic
sector initiatives and was,
fluctuations resulting from
market forces.
Development
development was the outgrowth ofprivate
therefore, subject to short and longer term
the vagaries of random business decisions and
Increasingly, governments have enlarged their role in this process
through supportive activities.
I-5
In some cases these have included the provision of utilities, roads,
police and fire protection and other comparable services. In others,
financial assistance has been furnished. In still others, broader eco-
nomic programs designed to stimulate area economic forces have been under-
taken.
The parameters for Miami outlined above, coupled with the experience
of other communities, underscore the essential nature of government in-
volvement to promote and realize economic development targets.
It is evident now that the city's role in this process must be more
active and purposeful, much in line with programs that have already been
formulated.
Miami, as with other cities, can and must help shape its future to
maximize impact derived from private and public investments and commit-
ments.
The city's excellent opportunities to capitalize on external factors
may be seen in such areas as its evolving role as a major international
trade and finance center, its increasing attraction of foreign tourists,
and its expanding base of business and health care sectors serving a large,
southeastern Florida region.
The challenge confronting the city at this time can be met
through a well -designed targeted response aimed at capital
izing on these and many other opportunities identified in
the course of this evaluation.
Our analysis indicate that the city can generate up to one-
half of the number of required city "at place" jobs and that
well -executed and focused initiatives can position Miami re-
sidents to gain larger shares of regional job opportunities.
As with other programs of this type, however, a well -managed
and carefully defined program will be essential to the
city's effectiveness in realizing these prospects. Direc-
tions and key targets to guide these proposed activities are
detailed in the sections which follow.
I-6
PART II: THE OPPORTUNITY
PART II: THE OPPORTUNITY
The challenge outlined for Miami in the previous section dimensions
"net additional employment gains" required to employ and upgrade the resi-
dent labor force with concommitent increases in personal income and the
city's tax base.
Meeting this challenge is rendered even more difficult by the dy-
namics of urban economies, in which enterprises are continually moving.
into and out of any given area.
Given these shifts, which are increasingly evident in the Miami eco-
nomic region, incremental growth can take place in Miami only if the city
is successful in:
nurturing and preserving existing economic activities;
and
-- capturing appropriate shares of regional growth in the
period ahead.
The number of new "at place" jobs required to adequately employ the
city's labor force was estimated at about 5,000 annually through 1985,
predicated on continued expansion of suburban Dade's economic base and
inter -regional commutation comparable to recent trends,.
Given regional growth and Miami's competitive position, we judge that
with an effective, comprehensive economic development program up to one-
half of the job target level (2,000-2,500 jobs annually) can be generated
in the city. In order to fully meet the challenge, the city must supple-
ment job -generating economic programs with those that will lead to in-
creased placement of city residents in non -city based jobs.
A two -pronged economic development strategy of this kind will be
greatly enhanced by the major rapid transit project already underway in
Dade County. This $930 million, 20.5 mile transit system will link the
southwest corridor and Hialeah to downtown Miami and is to tie in to a $164
million Downtown People Mover system. The availability of a dependable,
convenient and rapid intra-county transport will both broaden the city's
appeal as an accessible job location and improve the ability of city
residents to get to jobs outside the city. Coupled with a comprehensive
regional job placement system -- beginning with extensive listings
through state employment offices -- rapid transit can be important in
achieving an integrated regional economic unit.
In addition to benefits derived from this significant public improve-
ment, Miami's prospective success in its economic development efforts must
be assessed against the backdrop of changes anticipated within the eco-
nomic region of which it is a part. The outlook for Dade, Broward and Palm
Beach counties, therefore, forms a point of departure for evaluating the
city's opportunities in the period immediately ahead.
Miami Economic Region Outlook
The scale and character of forecast employment growth for the Miami
region, together with corollary economic development indices, are high-
lighted in the paragraphs which follow.
It should be noted at the outset that future growth in the region is
dependent on a stable or expanding national economic environment. Fore-
casting economic growth for any area is difficult, as patterns of growth
reflect a large number of complex and often unpredictable variables.
Therefore, for purposes of this analysis, that nation's long-term growth
II-2
trend is expected to continue with any short-term downturns offfset by
larger -than -normal gains in succeeding years.
Employment Gains. The Miami economic region will gain approximately
127,300 jobs between 1978 and 1982, according to projections prepared by
the Florida Department of Labor and Employment Security.
The forecast 2.9 percent average annual increase represents a general
continuation of past, impressive long-term trends.
Implied by these projections is rapid recovery during the earlier
part of the 1980's from any recession -related downturn during 1979 and
1980.
Of the 1.2 million jobs anticipated in the region in 1982, approxi-
mately three out of five (58.5%) will be located within Dade County, as may
be seen in the summary table below.

Total 1,108.4 1,235.7 127.3 11.4%

employment, coupled with corollary population and labor
force expectations, imply nine percent unemployment in
1982 as compared with seven percent at the present time.

Qualitative Employment Characteristics. Occupation and wage levels,
key measures of real opportunities that may be available to Miami resi-
dents, are a direct function of the industry mix forecast for the period
ahead.
The industrial mix of forecast employment gains in the Miami region,
detailed in Appendix B, is summarized as follows:
-- Industry Mix: Service and governmental categories will
lead other sectors in absolute gains throughout 1978-82,
according to forecasts by the Florida Department of Labor
and Employment Security.
In combination, these two industry categories will be up
approximately 14,000 jobs (3.3%) per annum throughout the
period.
Trade and manufacturing, in turn, will also expand ap-
preciably, with respective gains on a yearly basis aver-
aging almost 7,600 and 5,000 jobs into the early 1980's.
II-4
In percentage terms finance, insurance and real estate --
central place functions concentrated within downtown
Miami -- will be up sharply, 3.7 percent per annum.
These forecast changes are a reflection of a viable and
substantially growing economy and provide an important
point of departure for prospective city economic develop-
ment strategies as noted further below in this report.
Employment changes for Dade County for the comparable period reflect
similar patterns of industrial mix as may be seen directly below.

Occupational Profiles: Extending directly from the sub-
stantial service and governmental industry growth fore-
cast, white collar positions will increase sharply for
the early 1980's with average annual gains of 9,900
(2.8%) per annum anticipated in Dade County.
Clerical workers -- related largely to office activities
such as those concentrated within downtown and along
Brickell Avenue -- will lead this rise followed by pro-
fessional, technical and kindred jobs which are also
centered in the office development sector.

J Florida Department of Labor and Employment Security estimates of
non-agricultural wage and salary employment. 1978 distributions
have been interpolated from 1976 and 1982 data.
-- Wage Levels: While comprehensive data on comparative in-
come levels for various occupational groups are not
available, statistics provided through state -sponsored
job placement programs generally indicate that profes-
sional/technical and managerial categories are associ-
ated with the highest salary levels, followed by certain
blue collar categories together with sales and then
clerical workers. Service categories are typically as-
sociated with the lowest wage levels (see Appendix B).
Personal Income. By 1982, payrolls generated by Dade County indus-
trial gains will account for almost $1 billion more in personal income or a
"real income" gain of 14 percent over 1978 levels of $7.4 billion.
Reflecting average per employee wage and salary rates (detailed in
Volume IV in this series on Economic Development Strategies -- page IV-B-3)
and expected levels of industry sector growth, the greatest increase in
county payrolls would take place in the services sector followed, in turn,
by government, trade, construction and manufacturing.
These estimates, it should be emphasized, are conservative inasmuch
as they assume no "real" increases in average per employee wage and
II-6
salaries, an unlikely prospect even if the present economic slowdown with-
in the nation extends beyond 1980.

Governmental Revenues. Employment expansion for Dade County will
have both direct and indirect effects on the county's fiscal position.
In the former instance, expanded facilities development accommodating
increased employmentwill result in a higher level of aggregate property
tax revenues.
In the latter instance, higher levels of consumer expenditures
resulting from personal income increases will generate greater sales taxes
and revenues from merchant business fees and the like.
Net fiscal gains, of course, would be a function of these revenues,
less costs for additional services to meet the needs of an expanding
population and job base.
II-7
Various theories have been advanced as to the relative fiscal impacts
of "basic" and service sector activities, but empirical evidence on this
subject remains mixed.1/
There is general agreement that commercial development generates fis-
cal surpluses. Industrial development may or may not depending on such
factors as capital intensity, residential location of workers, and corol-
lary factors pertaining to the number of jobs and wage levels.
Of importance to Miami's current and future industry profile, an
evaluation of New York City's job base ranked fiscal benefits per employee
greatest in the finance, insurance and real estate sector followed by
manufacturing, services, trade and government.?/ Comparable conclusions
were derived in a similar study for Washington, D.C.3/

II-8
Since Dade County employment gains are anticipated primarily in the
service sector followed by trade, manufacturing and government, beneficial
fiscal effects from economic growth will likely be appreciable.
Specific Miami Opportunities
Following extensive analysis of the city's economic base in the con-
text of the three -county region -- Dade, Broward, Palm Beach -- a series of
industrial "targets" have been identified for Miami.
Representing promising opportunities in light of changes anticipated
for the region, these targets can represent significant opportunities in
relation to economic objectives with respect to:
- - net incremental employment gains for city residents;
-- improved qualitative job opportunities;
- - increased personal income levels; and
-- expansion in the city's tax base.
Industrial Targets. Among the sectors offering significant growth
potentials for future Miami economic growth are:
1. Tourist -related industries encompassing hotels, eating
and drinking establishments, real estate development,
construction and amusement and recreational services.
2. Business support services in a variety of office -using
industries associated with "center place" functions.
3. Health care services linked to the substantial, region -
serving medical institutions presently located within the
city.
4. Industrial commerce linked to Miami's role as a"gateway"
city.
5. Financial services building on Miami's position as one of
the nation's leading banking centers.
II-9
6. Light manufacturing activities keyed to the plastics,
electronic equipment, instrument, printing and publish-
ing, and furniture industries.
Business Retention. Equally as important, preservation of existing
business activities in prominent industry sectors will complement an over-
all economic development program for the city.
Industrial Targets. Business retention efforts should be focused on
specific industry segments:
1. Retail trade in comparison shopper goods, serving the
larger southeast Florida region (in addition to con-
venience goods and services provided to the local popu-
lation).
2. Wholesale trade capitalizing on the city's location with-
in the larger metropolitan context to receive, subdivide
and distribute major commodities.
3. Primary manufacturing in conjunction with apparel,
leather, and food and kindred products.
The scope and character of these growth and retention opportunities
are described below, and specific recommendations as to an overall eco-
nomic development strategy for the city to pursue with respect to these
"targets of opportunity" are presented in Part III. Detailed discussion as
to the dimension of these opportunities may be found in Appendix A.
1. Tourism. Historically an important component of the Miami eco-
nomy, this sector has expanded to cover international as well as domestic
markets.
In Dade County, 108,100 persons, representing 17 percent of all Dade
County employed, were engaged in tourist -related activities in 1978.
Spanning primary as well as secondary industries, these sectors en-
compass hotels and other lodging places, eating and drinking establish-
ments, real estate development, construction and recreational services.
II-10
While cyclical in nature and subject, in these times, to potential
fluctuations due to energy problems and changing international currency
exchange rates, Miami and,other Florida destinations have fared well
during recent unsettling economic conditions.
Of particular interest to the city has been the recent and rapidly
expanding level of international tourism from both Canadian and Latin
American sources. By recent estimates, these groups constitute almost 20
percent of Dade County's visitors.
Additionally, while nominal (3 percent of all tourists) at this time,
Mexican and European visitors represent potential new significant markets
to the city.
2. Supporting Business Services. Directly linked to the city's role
as a financial and commercial center are a variety of supporting office
using industries localized around the downtown.
Overall, these business services -- including advertising, building
cleaning, computer and data processing, consulting and equipment leasing
-- increased by nearly 8,000 positions between 1972 and 1978, going from
20,900 to 28,600 during the period.
Sharp gains h4ve been noted following the 1974-75 recession years and
the expectation i,s that this sector can continue to realize substantial
growth potentials in the future as Miami's commercial and financial role is
further enhanced.
3. Health Care Services. Constituting one of the real "growth indus-
tries" nationwide, health care services recorded a 6.5 percent per annum
growth rate in Dade County for 1972-78, going from 28,000 to 39,000
positions.
Generally unaffected by economic downturns, the industry gained in
absolute terms in 1974 and 1975 despite severe recessionary impacts.
Centering around Miami's major teaching institution, Jackson Memorial
Hospital with 1,250 beds, a substantial opportunity exists for multiplying
opportunities in connection with this sector in the future.
4. International Trade. Reflecting the city's increasing role as an
international "gateway," exports registered in the Miami customs district
were up $1.7 million over the past four years going from $2.0 billion in
1974 to $3.7 billion in 1978.
This almost two -fold gain accounted for appreciable employment in the
transportation and utilities sector (encompassing local and inter -urban
passenger transit, trucking and warehousing, water, air,and miscellaneous
transportation services together with communications) with total jobs
going from 56,500 in 1975 to 59,700 in 1978.
In addition to the substantial contributions accounted for by the air
industry (approximately 44 percent of total employment in these cate-
gories), port related transport and corollary transportation services are
particularly relevant to the city's future economic prospects. Though
relatively small at the present time, these have shown significant growth
in the past few years and planned port expansions will likely result in
even more dramatic increases in the foreseeable future.
5. Banking and Finance. Directly related to increases in inter-
national trade, together with an expanded and growing regional population
base, Miami's banking and finance industry has made substantial strides.
Rapidly becoming one of the nation's major international financial
centers, the city now accounts for 14 foreign banks, 14 Edge Act banks and
12 domestic financial institutions with active international departments.
11-12
Per capita deposits in Dade County at the present time have been
estimated at $4,400 -- a level 18 percent higher than that for Atlanta,
long consideredthe financial hub of the southeastern United States.
Reflecting this quantum leap in financial activity, Dade County
employment in the banking sector gained an average of 4.4 percent annually
going from 9,000 in 1975 to 10,200 in 1978.
Deposits in commercial banks and savings and loan institutions -- two
sectors that contribute directly to working capital for business enter-
prises and the housing industry -- almost doubled between 1970 and 1975,
going from $6.4 billion at the beginning of that period to $11.8 billion at
the end.
This average annual increase of 17 percent slowed somewhat to about
nine percent during the latter part of the 1970's, with total deposits
standing at $14.9 billion in 1978.
By far the overwhelming majority of the county's banking activities
are located in Miami. All told, 26 of Dade's 37 banks have offices in
Miami and as a group, these financial institutions account for two-thirds
(67 percent) of total county deposits.
6. Manufacturing Activities. Four discrete sectors of prime impor-
tance of Miami have been identified in this report. Included are:
a. Small specialized light manufacturing;
b. Apparel;
c. Leather products; and
d. Food and kindred products.
II-13
The small specialized light manufacturing group encompasses:
-- Rubber and plastics manufacture;
-- Electric and electronic equipment manufacture;
- - Instruments and related products;
- - Household furniture and furnishings; and
- - Printing and publishing.
Taken together, these sectors currently represents an important por-
tion of Miami's industrial base and, with careful planning and supporting
public programs, can be nurtured to continue to make significant economic
contributions, especially in relation to the scale and quality of job
opportunities.
With respect to these activities, the rubber and plastics industry is
currently engaged in product manufacturing for Latin American export.
Firms within this category have located primarily outside the city in the
past but can be drawn back to Miami given linkages with gateway ports and
airports together with relationships to other industries.
Similarly, certain electric and electronic equipment and instrument
manufacturers which tend to be labor intensive and concerned with rela-
tively compact products such as small medical diagnostic and therapeutic
equipment, are eminently suited for the city.
Household fabrication, on the other hand, has demonstrated strong
affinity to the city's labor force in the past, a strength that can be
further capitalized on in the future. These enterprises profit by the
existence of skilled individuals, trained in upholstering type functions
by their experience in the apparel industry. Since many of these firms
serve Latin America and California as well as local markets, a combination
II-14
•
of their proximity to this labor force coupled with access to the regional
transportation network can be important in future expansion plans within
the city.
The printing and publishing industry is already well established in
Miami and is in many respects tied to the large concentration of business
and financial activities in the city.
In much the same fashion, the apparel, leather products and food and
kindred manufacturing sectors -- already prominent in the city -- offer
specific city -based advantages.
In spite of nationwide declines in apparel and leather products owing
to foreign competition, and the city's declines in food processing due to
local area decentralization, selected special sub -sectors can be accom-
modated within the city provided contemporary facilities and operation
assistance are provided.
Essential features of any city program aimed at retaining
or recovering plants that have relocated in the past must
recognize the need for well -located manufacturing faci-
lities at competitive prices reasonably accessible to the
airport. Facilities of that type, coupled with a skilled
labor force (particularly minority women), represents an
important economic development opportunity for the city
that can be enlarged in the period ahead.
7. Retail Trade. While generally following population patterns,
Miami's "central place" functions in this industry have been reinforced
through both downtown revitalization and a substantial infusion of Latin
American travelers shopping in the area.
Representing a major employment sector, this industry accounted for
almost one in every five county jobs in 1978 and generated approximately 12
percent of Dade's personal income.
II-15
With 2.8 million square feet of retail space -- a substantial portion
of which is in comparison shopper goods -- downtown Miami remains a major
force in regional retailing. That role will expand with an increasing
employment base and higher tourist volumes. Moreover, through sales to
foreign shoppers -- particularly in the Central Business District, Omni
and Coconut Grove -- retailing serves as a "basic" export industry adding
further support, through economic multipliers, to other sectors.
8. Wholesale Trade. Servirq inter and intra-regional distribution
functions, wholesale operations nationwide are increasingly expanding the
range of services provided to meet changing industry requirements.
At present, 49,100 persons are employed in Dade County's wholesale
trade industry, up from 38,800 in 1972. Over one-third (37 percent) of the
county's wholesale activity was accommodated in the city in 1972, but given
nationwide trends toward decentralization together with significant ware-
house development in unincorporated Dade County in recent years, the
city's share of total county activity in this sector has likely declined
during the mid to late-1970's.
Nevertheless, wholesale trade remains an important component of
Miami's economic base. A significant portion of the city's operations are
found in the vicinity to the Civic Center and north along Northwest 7th
Avenue. Many of these related to food processing and furniture manu-
facture.
Given highly specialized needs in conjunction with the port and the
existing city population base, together with continued support from and
linkages with a variety of other industries that will maintain and expand
II-16
operations within the city, wholesaling can remain an important -- if not
expanded -- part of Miami's economy in the period ahead.
Economic Development Strategies: The dimensions of
Miami's challenge and opportunities outlined above (and
detailed in the Appendix to this report) form the frame-
work in which prospective city actions can be weighed
against prescribed community objectives on the one hand
and priorities assigned to available resources on the
other.
A series of recommended responses in light of indicated
development opportunities is presented in Part 1II below.
Following a restatement of principal goals governing
these programs, a series of "generic" and related indus-
try -specific strategies designed to meet overall require-
ments of a prospective Miami economic development program
are set forth.
I1-17
PART III: THE RESPONSE
•
PART III: THE RESPONSE
Overall economic development strategies for the city are best viewed
in the context of:
- - prescribed public policy goals
- - generic (basic) strategies
- - specific action programs.
Each of these is described in the pages which follow.
to:
Primary Economic Development Goals in Review
Four basic goals governing Miami's economic development program are
- - Generate a sufficient number of new jobs to meet the
needs of city residents in the period ahead.
-- Upgrade the quality of employment opportunities available
to city residents.
- - Increase personal income levels.
- - Preserve and expand the city's tax base.
These goals, it will be recognized, are highly interrelated.
In addition, the city's location in a larger economic region cannot be
overlooked.• In that respect, various opportunities may be available to
residents who are employed elsewhere but chose to live within Miami. Con-
versely, many of the jobs created in the city will be held by those living
outside the community.
Moreover,opportunities available for Miami and the economic region
will, in part, be influenced by broader nationwide events. While economic
indicators are mixed at this time, it would appear that the country is
entering into a mild recession which will span the remaining portion of
this year (1979) and continue until about mid-1980.
Patently, the economic fortunes of Miami, as well asother cities
throughout the nation, will be influenced by these developments. Never-
theless, the basic strength of the city's economy has been demonstrated in
the recent past and it is expected that city employment can continue to
expand in the upcoming years.
Net Incremental Jobs. Given the primacy of employment to the city's
ongoing economic development fortunes, creation of new jobs must be focus-
ed on:
- - meeting additional labor force gains in the future;
-- reducing present unemployment levels; and
- - ameliorating underemployment .
In order to accomplish these respective objectives,
30,000 net incremental new jobs must be added to the city
between 1979 and 1985. This challenge is especially for-
midable since it requires capturing slightly more than
one in four new positions added to Dade County for the
comparable period. In order to accomplish this end, a
carefully conceived and effectively executed economic
development program is essential.
Generic (Basic) Strategies
A number of fundamental responses must be highlighted at the outset in
formulating an effective overall economic development program for the
city.
These generic strategies address:
1. Improving the climate for business activity in the city.
2. Enhancing the city's image as a place to do business.
3. Providing functional and competitively priced physical
facilities for business expansion and relocation.
III-2
•
4. Upgrading skills and capabilities of Miami's human capi-
tal resources.
5. Providing financial and technical assistance to city
businesses.
6. Attracting middle and upper income resident households.
Specific activities in these areas are described below.
1. Imp roving the City Business Climate. The essential objectives for
this generic strategy are to create a receptive and efficient city response
network to meet the needs of industries moving into the area and those
which may be relocating, expanding or remaining at their present facili-
ties.
Five basic responses would directly support this "business welcome
wagon" and service program.
These would include:
a. Implementing a "business outreach" program.
b. Creating a business "resource panel."
c. Establishing a business "hotline."
d. Expediting city decision making.
e. Relieving tax burdens and providing specific incen-
tives where appropriate.
a. "Business Outreach". The primary purpose of this program would
be to encourage on -going dialogue between city businesses and the munici-
pal government in which grievances may be aired, concerns raised, and city
feedback provided. One possible forum for this interchange is a "town
meeting" at which various city officials can meet informally with a small
.group of local business people. This exchange can both be varied in format
and on -going as an integral part of the city's continuous economic develop-
ment effort.
III-3
While various organizations exist at present with respect to the
business community, the nature of the process undertaken here would be
slightly different and, moreover, would produce specific direct beneficial
impacts for both Miami and the existing enterprise base.
Specifically, four purposes would be served in this mobilization ef-
fort, including:
- - Conveying to those persons contacted that the city is
concerned about its overall business climate.
- - Ascertaining directly from the business community
specific needs and problems in relation to an improved
business climate.
-- Educating business people as to various programs now
being contemplated or those that will be undertaken by
the city.
-- Enabling the city, in turn, to deal with potential
problems of business closures and/or relocations at an
early time through the "early warning" system that
might be instituted through the various contacts.
Among the sectors that would be targeted here, given retention ef-
forts and potential new activities, would be:
- - Retail trade, including both Central Business District
and neighborhood commercial enterpreneurs.
- - Wholesale trade, with special emphasis on operations
engaged in garment, food and beverage, furniture and
sea and airport related functions.
-- Special industries, notably apparel, instruments,
leather products and other comparable sectors cited in
this report.
b. Business "Resource Panel". In instituting the "business out-
reach" program, a broad selection of representative industry leaders and
businesspersons should be canvassed and involved in the creation of a
"resource panel."
III-4
This panel should be drawn from existing resource groups such as the
new Economic Development Policy Advisory Council, the New World Action
Committee, and other leadership levels, as well as from the general busi-
ness community.
The purpose of this advisory group would be to mobilize the Miami
business community to serve as a resource in responding to specific needs
identified by businesses inquiring about prospective relocation to the
city or others seeking to remain and meet changing needs. Thus, this panel
would both support the existing business community and serve as a "welcome
wagon" for new business prospects.
As part of this program, all serious inquiries received by the Office
of Trade and Commerce Development would be routinely passed along to a
"business omnibusman" in the respective sector represented by the in-
quirer.
In turn, that businessperson would contact the respondent and provide
both general information (made available through an OTCD information kit)
as well as industry -specific information growing out of his or her own
operating experience in the city.
This program would provide invaluable insights to the parties seeking
a new or expansion location in Miami and, moreover, demonstrate the city's
deep and abiding commitment to providing responsive information on a time-
ly basis. As such, it would complement directly the corollary program
elements of''expediting city decision making as noted below.
c. Business "Hotline".
program, a central business service center should be established which can
provide assistance, respond to inquiries, and refer questions to other
agencies where appropriate. As part of this program, follow-up should be
As part of the overall business support
III-5
conducted to insure that all referrals are adequately serviced by other
agencies.
This program is associated with high pay-off in terms of preventing
dissatisfaction and frustration among members of the city's business com-
munity and thereby preventing business outmigration. This service also
will provide further insights as to the nature to business concerns and
recurring problems in city services.
d. Streamlining the Decision Process. A re-evaluation of all ad-
ministrative procedures with respect to accommodating business needs
should be undertaken at an early time.
The basic objective of this re-evaluation would be to establish a
"fast track" economic development process for meeting inquiries or re-
quests on the part of business organizations seeking to locate within the
city or expand their present operations.
Various permits or approvals required would be identified in specific
terms and every effort undertaken to reduce processing time.
The importance of a "fast track" streamlined government processing
system cannot be overstated. Experience throughout the United States
demonstrates that business interests are less inclined to turn to cities
where inordinate delays can be expected. All other things being equal with
respect. to locational criteria, these extensions in processing are equated
with "lost time and costs" and thereby directly affect success or failure
in attracting new enterprises or retaining existing ones.
e. Tax Incentives. In broader terms, the city should formulate a
program of tax and other incentives (development bonuses; improved infra-
structure to meet specific needs; etc.) with respect to targeted indus-
tries that meet specific ongoing needs.
III-6
For example, these efforts might be directed at meeting the following
objectives:
- - Diversification of the local economy so as to mitigate
cyclical effects.
- - Attraction of industries that may carry greater multi-
plications within the economy (e.g., instrument tech-
nology in association with medical research).
-- Provision of jobs for semi -skilled or lower -skilled
persons that may present upward mobility with respect
to job qualification and associated wage and salary
levels.
In-depth examination in that respect should be given to prospective
financial incentive programs designed to assist industries during early,
more precarious start-up phases. Moreover, on a case -by -case basis, other
assistance -- in the form of development bonuses for more intensive land
utilization or accelerated infrastructure construction in line with the
city's capital improvement program --should be considered.
In each of these instances, the objective would be to accommodate the
needs of selected industries that meet the broader economic development
blueprint that has been established and, in so doing, gain the advantages
of multiplications that may be provided. Potential economic leverage here
can result in net incremental gains, even in the short term, for the city.
Thereafter, of course, even greater benefits would accrue.
2. Enhancing Miami's Image as a Place to Conduct Business. National
and even regional perceptions of southeastern Florida frequently fail to
recognize the city's substantial business and financial base.
This image problem can and should be overcome by an effective pro-
motional campaign.
Three discrete elements should be considered in that respect:
III-7
- - The first, pertaining to the geographic coverage of
these marketing efforts.
- - The second, related to the "themes" that may be incor-
porated within promotional materials.
-- The third, targeted at specific industries as a com-
plement to projecting the city's regional message.
a. Geographic Coverage. When designing a program to attract new
industries to an area, the natural tendency is to seek wider regional,
national and international coverage.
In the case of Miami, a balanced program for promoting the city's.
image would be well advised to maintain a steady series of "promotional
reminders" at each of these levels.
Paralleling thoseefforts, however, the importance of coverage in
Florida and the greater Miami area cannot be overemphasized.
A great many of the new industries in the Miami area come from within
Florida or within the metropolitan area itself. In this respect, city
expansion and business spin-off markets are prime candidates for marketing
efforts.
Various media options for reaching geographic target markets will
have to be examined in relation to the totality of an overall marketing
campaign consistent both with. available resources on the one hand, and
penetration into each of these submarkets on the other.
The specifics of such a program, of course, would be detailed through
the Office of Trade and Commerce Development and its ongoing operations.
b. Promotional Themes. Perceptions of the city are frequently
confused with neighboring Miami Beach, thereby masking the considerable
assets and resources available for business and industrial activity.
III-8
While stressing Miami's livability with respect to weather, climate
and other aesthetic values, care should be taken to convey other important
assets.
Going beyond the "sun and fun" message might be a variety of others
directed to Miami's businesslike attitudes and receptive industrial cli-
mate.
Specific assets stressed in these promotional efforts might include:
- - the city's role as one of the nation's largest inter-
national financial centers;
- - continuing and expanding trade and transportation hub
of major proportion;
-- a skilled and bi-lingual labor force;
- - centrality within a large and growing regional market;
and
- - the availability of a diverse and expanding economy.
Various graphic and written techniques can be applied to project
these themes: illustratively, "Miami means more than beaches and boats ...
Miami means business!"
Another effective technique is one of posing a question as to what is
the largest financial and trade center within the southeast and, after
furnishing the names of various cities such as those cited in Volume II of
this report series, highlighting Miami's leading role in that respect as •
compared with New Orleans, Jacksonville, Tampa, and even Atlanta.
Each of these themes will catch attention and project a message that
has not been sufficiently clarified and focused around the nation up to the
present time.
Equally important, however, is a well -designed campaign which will
reinforce complementary promotional efforts -- largely in the tourism area
III-9
-- undertaken by nearby jurisdictions in order to achieve greater benefi-
cial impacts for the region that the city can share. The need for coordi-
nation and consistency among various marketing themes utilized in Dade
County is clear. One possible means for accomplishing a unified approach
is a joint tourist promotion effort, perhaps funded by BED tax collections,
as one part of the city's overall marketing campaign.
In addition to these efforts, the city can also work with appropriate
state agencies which undertake substantial promotional efforts -- funded
at appreciable levels -- in connection with domestic and foreign (most
notably Europe and Asia at this time) tourism. This would complement
comparable activities currently aimed at the Latin American market, among
others.
An effective promotional campaign will establish Miami as being in a
most amenable climate zone and, of equal importance, demonstrate that all
of the necessary commercial "infrastructure" is in place here to carry on
business in an effective and profitable manner.
c. Targeted Industries. Even while these general promotional ef-
forts are proceeding it is well to think of more selective, pinpointed
promotional marketing.
As such, a number of industries have been identified in the course of
this study that warrant attention.
Listed below are several of these. To this compilation may be added a
variety of others that are identified and discussed in greater detail in
the appendix to this report.
-- Printing and publishing: small firms, particularly
those with Central and South American clients and
those engaged in printing travel brochures or adver-
tising supplements, or publishing magazines;
III-10
•
-- Rubber and miscellaneous products: small firms pro-
ducing goods for Latin export or for local building
construction and scientific instruments industries;
-- Electric and electronic equipment: small firms pro-
ducing electromedical products, particularly ultra-
sonic equipment, and electric equipment for Latin
American and Caribbean export;
- - Instruments and related products: small establish-
ments manufacturing medical and surgical instruments
for local and Latin American markets; and
- - Furniture and fixtures: manufacturers of casual fur-
niture, particularly rattan, upholstered, light oak
frame, and patio pieces.
3. Available and Competitively Priced Physical Facilities. The
city's ability to effect business retention and corollary attraction of
new industries must be deepened.
Several specific programs are outlined further below in this document
that relate to this capability.
In basic and generic strategy terms, however, a number of "insti-
tutional" steps should be undertaken at the outset in concert with those
efforts.
First and foremost, a current and hopefully "instantaneously retriev-
able" inventory of available industrial facilities should beput in place,
building on information now available through utility companies, the
Industrial Development Authority, and other groups.
Conceived as the counterpart to the "shopping list" that prospective
industries may present when inquiring about Miami locations, this compi-
lation would present all salient features with respect to available indus-
trial land and improvements.
Among these features would be:
-- site size and configuration;
-- building specifications (multi -floor, single floor,
column spacing);
-- accessibility (street network, alley service link-
ages, loading bays, etc.);
- - available utilities;
- - pertinent financial data (sales price, rent, other.
terms); and
-- parties to contact (leasing or management agents,
owners, etc.).
By demonstrating retrieval capabilities in this area, the city can
make major strides in accommodating those inquiring about prospective
locations and gain considerable advantage in ultimately attracting the
industries in question.
Recognizing that an industrial inventory can be an extensive and time
consuming effort, our recommendation is that certain areas be given prior-
ity at the outset to meet current and emerging needs.
Foremost among these would be:
- - the fashion district; and
- - other light industrial and wholesaling nodes.
With respect to the former, Miami's garment industry is concentrated
between Northwest 22nd and Northwest 29th Streets and from 2nd Avenue to
6th Avenue.
This area reprsents a viable location for activities of this type,
particularly in view of the strong ties to wholesale and retail activities
nearby.
The city's planning department is undertaking a major improvement
program for expansion and beautification of the district, and in parallel
with that effort, specific industry inventories should also be obtained as
soon as possible.
To the extent that such inventories identify land and facilities that
can be made available near the fashion district, it would be desirable to
accommodate "affinity" industries here as well as apparel manufacture.
Among those in that category would be leather products, a sector that draws
on comparable skills in relation to the city's labor force and which also
appeals to similar consumer markets. This sector, which is now diffused
throughout the city can gain from proximity to the apparel industry.
A variety of other specific programs have been identified
in the course of this work in relation to geographic
locations throughout Miami. These are covered further
below with respect to associated economic development
strategies,
4. Human Capital Resources. Among Miami's assets with respect to
attracting new industries and preserving old ones, the city's basic "capi-
tal" in a very real sense is its current and future labor force.
In this regard, two points should be emphasized in the city's future
economic development promotion activities. These would encompass:
a. present skills vested within the labor force; and
b. the hard-working and upwardly mobile characteristics
of that labor force.
Illustratively, the achievements of Miami's Cuban immigrants are evi-
dent throughout the city. This hard-working, bi-lingual labor force seeks
improved livelihood in many ways in parallel with other immigrant genera-
tions.
These innate qualities, which will govern future industry perfor-
mance, are as important to locational decisions as is the profile of the
current force.
The aspirations of Miami's workers should not only be noted in market-
ing programs, but equally as important, accommodated with respect to
governmental and privately sponsored training programs in the future.
III-13
The city would be well advised, for example, to encourage and assist
the following public and private sector programs:
a. Private Business Schools; including notably those
teaching skills associated with office -using indus-
tries.
b. Industry Focused Programs; such as those frequently
included in "on-the-job" training within banking and
other financial institutions.
c. Repair and. Maintenance Programs; carried out through
private schools and/or major industries and designed
to teach back-up, support skills to assure ongoing ,
smooth operations.
d. Vocational Education; on the part of the city's
school systems both within individual programs featur-
ing job training in addition to other, complementary
skills, and within programs found within broader aca-
demic educational institutions.
e. Specific Government Sponsored Training; including a
variety of programs which have been undertaken through
CETA and its predecessor job training program.
In the recognition that commitments to this program will continue for
many years in the future, generic city economic strategies should aim at
effecting the best "fit" between skilled training on the one hand and
emerging needs of Miami's industries on the other.
As a pool of these skilled individuals increases, a series of bene-
ficial and mutually reinforcing impacts can be expected. These would
include greater career development and upward mobility for individuals
obtaining these skills on the one hand, and a broader and deeper human
capital resource base to promote city economic development on the other.
5. Financial and Technical Assistance. In combination with the
aforementioned generic economic development strategies, a series of other
basic services should be put in place to aid Miami's businesses.
III-14
Specifically accounted for in this respect would be:
a. Technical assistance; and
b. Financial assistance.
Various steps in both of these areas have been initiated by a number
of local government offices. It remains, however, to provide a focal point
around which services of this type can be furnished and -- of equal impor-
tance -- made known to existing city establishments as well as others that
may seek to locate in the area. At the outset, knowledgeable business and
industrial entrepreneurs, who represent an important existing resource,
should be assembled as an extension to the "resource panel" noted earlier
with a view to making their technical expertise available in relation to
various functions set forth immediately below.
a. Technical Assistance. Included in this area would be a number
of key functions pertaining to successful business operation. Among those
would be:
- - management counseling;
-- legal consultation;
- - auditing/accounting and financial guidance;
- - promotional advertising and marketing;
-- inventory control; and
research, development and retrieval of previously
established operational information.
These functions can be presented on a "one-on-one" basis much in line
with the SBA SCORE program, and through a variety of techniques including
seminars and workshops.
While community, voluntary service would account for a large propor-
tion of the technical resources assembled in this fashion, several federal
•
and state programs can be utilized as part of the city's effort. Among
these are:
Federal Programs
-- The U.S. Department of Commerce has programs in for-
eign investment and international trade which can be
used to supplement ongoing Miami activities (such as
international fairs) to promote increased activities
in the trade sector. These programs are sponsored
jointly with the Florida Economic Development Office,
and efforts should be made to coordinate with this
state agency to capitalize on these federal initi-
atives.
-- The U.S. Department of the Commerce Industry and Trade
Administration has begun a new program to encourage
export of apparel goods. Currently focused on Western
Europe, future opportunities in the Far East and in
Latin America are also envisioned as part of this pro-
gram. Efforts should be made to tie Miami operations
in to these activities.
State Programs
-- The State of Florida Department of Commerce, Division
of Economic Development, Trade Development Office
sponsors programs to encourage foreign trade. As part
of an overall strategy, the city should seek direct
representation in trade missions, trade shows, and
educational campaigns, through both the Tallahassee
and Coral Gables offices.
-- The Division of Economic Development of the Florida
Department of Commerce is beginning to work on a com-
puterized system which will match industries to suit-
able locations in the state. Of vital city interest,
Miami should establish contact with the sponsoring
agency and monitor these efforts.
City Staff Resources. Utilization of the federal and state programs
enumerated above would be best accomplished with a full-time, technical
assistance staff within the Office of Trade and Commerce Development.
This staff resource would be an important complement to voluntary
services on the part of leading area business and industrial persons.
The functions of such a staff would be two -fold:
-- First, to provide direct technical assistance as ap-
propriate to various enterprises; and
-- Second, to formulate more general materials that could
be focused to aid a large number of similar indus-
tries.
As an example of this second function, a variety of useful manuals,
guidelines and comparable examples have been furnished by state agencies
to assist local enterprises throughout the United States.
Keyed to tax reporting, inventory control, and similar concerns,
these programs generalize from specific cases known through the direct
technical assistance furnished as part of these programs to the nature of
repetitive problems and/or issues confronting business and industrial
operations.
Accordingly, the generic economic development strategies for Miami
should incorporate a staff resource base from which to effectively utilize
voluntary resources and tap available federal and state programs in an on-
going "institutional" fashion.
O. Financial Assistance. Extending the consultations described
above, financial assistance in the form of advisory services and specific
ways and means to meet working capital and other requirements on the part
of enterprises, would form the core of this program component.
The scope of these activities can be comprehensive including:
- - Capital and loan packaging.
- - Means and sources for equity financing
-- Debt financing and loan guarantees.
- - Related financial considerations.
III-17
•
Once again, a two -level program might be envisioned:
- - The first, focused on serving as a conduit in identi-
fying potential financing from other sources including
private sector institutions and governmental groups;
and
- - The second, relating to a more active role on the part
of the city through the creation of a development
corporation -- as is presently under investigation --
or other similar vehicle which could leverage the
"municipal equity" thus established.
Given increased economic development attention throughout the nation,
the available government programs in this area are extensive and generally
well known.
For purposes of this generic strategy, listed below are a number of
key sources which can serve for guideline purposes in regard to specific
program responses formulated by the city in the financial assistance area.
Federal Programs
- - Economic Development Administration: EDA Title I, Title
IX, and Trade Adjustment Assistance programs will provide
direct loans and loan guarantees for fixed asset purchase
or working capital. While garment operations are gener-
ally excluded from these programs, a wide variety of
other activities can qualify. In addition, EDA money can
be used as equity or venture capital (Title IX, through
revolving loan funds) or for rehabilitation funding.
- - Department of Housing and Urban Development: HUD pro-
grams for business financing include Community Develop-
ment Block Grants, Urban Development Action Grants, and
the 312 program for rehabilitation. Alone and in con-
junction with neighborhood based non-profit organi-
zations, these programs can provide monies for fixed as-
sets, rehabilitation and working capital.
- - Small Business Administration: Through SBA 502, 7(a),
Equal Opportunity Loans and SBIC-MESBIC programs, loan
guarantees, loan participations and selective direct
loans can be made to small businesses.
III-18
•
County Programs
-- Commercial and residential revitalization programs: Dade
County's Community Development programs uses CD monies
for renovation in target neighborhoods. The commercial
revitalization program, for example, provides for bank
loans at effective interest rates of three percent. This
program would be particularly useful for retailing in
neighborhood commercial areas and would provide spin-off
neighborhood revitalization benefits.
-- Industrial Revenue Bonds: Dade's Industrial Development
Authority is empowered to float tax-free industrial
revenue bonds which can be used to finance projects which
will increase employment in the county.
To round out this program of technical and financial assistance,
continued attention to industry "targeting" is also recommented. Illus-
trative direction in this regard are cited below.
c. Target Industry Sectors. As a point of departure, a number of
industry groups can be emphasized for "initial technical and financial.
assistance" in line with the directions set forth above.
Reflecting the basic strengths of the Miami economy identified else-
where in this report series, these would include activities aimed at as-
sisting the retention and/or expansion of existing enterprises in these
various sectors.
In brief, the industries in question and potential activities that
might be undertaken in their behalf are listed below.
Tourism: As many tourist -related activities, especially
eating and drinking establishments and retail outlets,
are small operations, overall business start-up, manage-
ment counseling, and financial assitance could be impor-
tant.
Specialized Light Industrial Activities: Given the fact
that many of the industrial establishments in Miami are
small independent operations, both technical and finan-
cial assistance are of vital importance. In particular,
emphasis should be placed on business management services
and the provision of working capital.
III-19
-- Wholesale Trade: Due to the evolving sophistication of
this industry, including its increasing use of computer
technology in providing customer services, technical as-
sistance should be provided to help small establishments
remain competitive.
- - Retail Trade: Because of the high turnover in this
industry, and the dynamic nature of its markets, emphasis
should be placed on "front-end" service assistance, in-
cluding marketing, planning, site selection and capital
financing.
- - International Trade: As international trade is a very
complex and potentially risky business, a strong techni-
cal assistance program is particularly necessary here.
6. Middle and Upper Income Households. Even while the principal
focus for the generic economic development strategies cited here pertains
to "industries" as such, the corollary community development objective
cannot be overlooked.
As in the case of human capital resources, the attraction of indus-
tries or retention of existing ones frequently is inextricably linked to
the city's population base. Throughout the country, substantial growth in
executive offices, high technology industries and similar developments
typically is characterized by close proximity to persons with high educa-
tion and corollary personal income capabilities.
In similar fashion, the successful achievement of the city's goal to
attract more middle and upper income persons can be expected to have
comparable effects.
Accordingly, an integral part of these generic economic development
strategies is to maintain and perhaps even intensify the city's present
commitment to attracting households of this type.
Toward that end, components of this community development counterpart
of basic economic strategies under discussion here might include the fol-
lowing:
III-20
a. Encourage high-rise residential development at
selected locations along Biscayne Bay. The city's
superb waterfront amenity should be fully utilized to
stimulate residential construction. .This basic,.
natural feature and asset has proven to be influential
with respect to middle and high income households
throughout the nation.
While activity of this type is already taking place
along Brickell Avenue, it should be encouraged,
through use of appropriate incentives, if necessary,
along Biscayne Boulevard where overall neighborhood
revitalization can benefit both that area and, more
broadly, the city's overall economic base. We under-
stand that the city is already planning for new resi-
dential development in this corridor from Omni to 36th
Street.
b. Ongoing residential redevelopment programs. In addi-
tion, a series of other programs has been formulated
in the past designed to improve housing prospects
through selective redevelopment. Where conditions are
appropriate with respect to market acceptance, other
comparable developments of this type should be encour-
aged. In this respect, projects such as the overtown
plan should be continued, and the existing network of
community organizations should be utilized to foster
other neighborhood efforts.
c. New Town In -Town. Finally, a series of specific steps
are now underway with regard to a proposed new town
in -town north of the Central Business District.
Consistent with sensitive and thoughtful attention to
those economic enterprises currently located within
this area for which a basic "business retention strat-
egy" should be implemented, Miami should undertake all
supporting actions necessary to successfully realize
this substantial residential development.
This program would increase tax ratables and provide
quality housing opportunities for a wide variety of
individuals, who would in turn enhance the city's
labor force.
Related Action Programs
In addition to the generic strategies outlined above, a series of
other responses would be appropriate in relation to indicated development
opportunities.
In general, these would focus around:
1. geographic areas for future activity;
2. facilities and other physical resource needs; and
3. industry -specific training programs.
Various strategies in connection with these programs are outlined
below.
1. Geographic Focus
Included within this program would be:
- - development of industrial parks; and
- - enhancing and capitalizing on established city districts.
Each of these is described in the paragraphs which follow.
Industrial Park Resources. In order to maintain a competitive posi-
tion with other suburban communities, we believe it would be advantageous
to develop in the near term one or possibly two industrial parks featuring
contemporary improvements suitable to meeting the needs of various enter-
prises.
Designed with typical "suburban" standards in mind, such parks would
feature land coverage, set -backs, parking ratios, physical plants, and
other appropriate restrictions.
In the initial stages, this "industrial park resource" would be use-
ful in retaining businesses currently considering relocation out of the
city and possibly attracting back, others who have left to nearby com-
munities.
Toward that end, the 50-acre FEC railroad yard property appears to be
excellent for the type of development noted here as it provides, among
other features, access to the regional expressway network and sufficient
III-22
land to create a unique industrial environment. We understand that the
city is presently investigating ways to fund a study of options available
for this site.
A second park might be considered for the Civic Center area, with a
view at accommodating food and beverage wholesale functions and medical
related instruments and electrical equipment manufacturers in that area.
In contrast with the FEC property, this location would require an
extensive site acquisition and assembly program.
a. Competitive Price Offerings. Any industrial park contemplated
by the city must be competitively priced to meet suburban marketplace
alternatives. Accordingly, a variety of techniques would have to be con-
sidered by Miami in relation to "delivering" such spaces.
Among these would be prospective land write -downs, inclusion of
infrastructure development costs by the city, provision of financial in-
centives through favorable interest rates, and other similar features.
In guideline terms, space should be initially offered at prices some-
what below competitive suburban levels to induce early movement. After
momentum has been established, land prices likely could be raised to about
$0.50-$1.00 above competitive suburban rates.
Recognizably, competitively prices offerings can be higher than
suburban counterparts provided the marketplace imputes higher values to
other associated features such as access, nearby markets, and available
labor force skills.
Prospective industrial parks that may be created by the city, there-
fore, should be governed by these guidelines both with regard to locations
for such parks and the corollary program supports necessary for maintain-
ing competitively priced merchandise. Where feasible, joint development
of these parks should be considered.
III-23
•
b. Capitalizing on Existing "At -Place" Assets. In addition to an
industrial park, a variety of other "geographic areas" within the city
should be enhanced through providing necessary supporting services.
Included in this respect would be:
- - The Central Business District;
-- The Port;
-- Coconut Grove;
- - The Civic Center Complex;
- - The new Convention Center; and
-- Biscayne Bay and related waterways.
The direction that potential activities might take in relation to
each of these "at -place assets" is noted in the paragraphs which follow.
i. The Central Business District
The CBD, as a major nucleus of business, service, and financial acti-
vities within the region, can support future increments of economic devel-
opment in a number of specific industry areas:
Retail Trade: Continued private sector interest in down-
town retailing is demonostrated by the recent Omni devel-
opment, new malls on Flagler Street, and renovations by
major CBD retailers. Public redevelopment initiatives in
the Miami Riverfront Specialty District will further
strengthen the downtown as a major retail node.
In conjunction with business outreach and techni-
cal/financial assistance programs, the city should
continue to direct initiatives toward strengthening CBD
retailing to maintain the viability of this sector in the
years ahead.
-- Tourism. The Convention Center/Hotel complex currently
under construction, together with Omni and the hotel
facilities planned as part of the Bali Point project,
should be used to focus increasing levels of tourist
activity in the downtown.
III-24
The city should encourage private sector initiatives,
particularly with regard to the renovation of CBD hotels,
through financial support. Additionally, tourist pro-
motion should stress the extensive high -quality shopping
opportunities available in downtown Miami.
Assuming adequate levels of funding can be obtained, the
city should also support development of the Watson Island
theme park.
Business Services. Continued interest by the business
services sector in the downtown, including Brickell
Avenue, should be supported by access and parking im-
provements. The city should continue to work with other
city and county agencies toward developing solutions to
downtown circulation and parking problems. In this re-
gard, the proposed People Mover and transit system pro-
jects should be supported.
Banking and Finance. As with the business services sec-
tor, banking and finance is already concentrated down-
town. Again, alleviation of congestion and provision of
additional parking would help to ensure continued momen-
tum here.
ii. The Miami Seaport and Related Activities
The Port of Miami is presently a major international trade gateway as
well as the largest cruise port in the nation. Planned improvements of the
port will support further expansion of Miami's international trade sector.
The proposed World Trade Center will provide added reinforcement to
Miami's role as an international gateway, and the city should utilize this
important addition to Miami's "place" assets in promotional materials and
other recruitment efforts.
The city should also attempt to capitalize on the large numbers of
cruise passengers by encouraging weekends in Miami as part of the total
vacation trip.
III-25
iii. Coconut Grove
Coconut Grove is already well established as a major specialty
retail/entertainment center and tourist attraction, and public improve-
ments now underway will underscore the appeal of this area.
Coconut Grove should be supported through merchant business assis-
tance programs -- such as those set out above -- and alleviation of parking
shortages where feasible -- as is now being considered by the city.
iv. The Civic Center Complex
Health services activities and food and beverage operations already
in this area should be used to expand city activities in these two sectors:
Health Services: As the largest medical facility in the
region, Jackson Memorial Hospital represents a major eco-
nomic development opportunity for Miami.
The city, working in conjunction with hospital adminis-
tration staff, should focus on new business prospects
interested in locating near the hospital. Where needed,
financial and technical assistance should be provided to
targeted health services and related activities.
In addition, the city should assist in site assembly and
consider possible financial incentives (land write -down,
etc.), if necessary, to stimulate development in the
area.
Food and Beverage Sector Activities. As part of the
city's industrial development initiatives, efforts
should be made to create a nucleus of food and beverage
manufacturing and wholesaling operations in the Civic
Center area. Consideration should be given to a city -
sponsored farmer's market center to stimulate private in-
vestment and generate spin-off activities.
v. The Knight Center.
The Convention Center and hotel complex now under construction in the
city's central area should be used as a vehicle for expanding convention -
related tourist activity in the city. Not only should the facility itself
III-26
be actively promoted within the convention circuit, but the convention
center complex should be utilized in promotional materials as in demons-
tration of the dynamic, vital character of Miami.
vi. Biscayne Bay and Related Waterways
Miami's water amenities are important assets that contribute in large
measure to the overall physical attractiveness of the area as a place to
live and work. They also support trade activities centered on the port and
provide a natural resource for a burgeoning marina/marine industry that
adds to the city's economic base.
2. Facilities and Physical Resources
Two principal areas may afford interesting promise with respect to
strategies focused on physical resources within the city.
The first of these, as mentioned earlier, would be an inventory of all
available industrial land and improvements. The second would be initi-
ation of a "shopsteading" program designed to assist new, small business
enterprises.
a. Industrial Inventory. The desirability of a comprehensive compi-
lation of city industrial land and improvement assets for those seeking a
Miami location or other businesses expanding within the area, has already
been discussed.
Once in hand, this information can be used for other purposes as well.
Foremost among these would be stimulating and encouraging new indus-
tries through the provision of "incubator space" which could be properly
sized to meet the needs of start-up firms.
Building on the variety of approaches noted within this strategy
section, the identification of these physical facilities would represent
one of several possible supports that the city may furnish. Also included
III-27
be actively promoted within the convention circuit, but the convention
center complex should be utilized in promotional materials as in demons-
tration of the dynamic, vital character of Miami.

Miami's water amenities are important assets that contribute in large
measure to the overall physical attractiveness of the area as a place to
live and work. They also support trade activities centered on the port and
provide a natural resource for a burgeoning marina/marine industry that
adds to the city's economic base.

III-27
here could be various tax incentives together with technical and other
financial assistance that might be available to bring these firms to a
normalized operation.status and thereby assist them in extending and ex-
panding their business volume over time.
b. Shopsteading. A relatively new concept in which vacant commercial
property, includ ng abandoned or tax delinquent improvements, are turned
9 it
over to the city and resold for nominal fees, this program has been suc-
cessfully implemented in Baltimore and other communities.
Since small business does represent an important component of Miami's
overall economic base, we believe it would be valuable to investigate the
feasibility of initiating a prototype pilot project in this area.
In order to prove successful, however, shopsteading would require
careful examination of both the subject properties that might be made
available and the enterprises contemplating moves into such facilities.
In addition, results must be carefully monitored so as to establish in
broader terms the generalized principles that might be applicable to
deepening and expanding this approach.
The pilot "shopsteading" project should be coordinated with city and
county revitalization and beautification efforts including those initi-
atives now underway in Little River.
Based on the prospective success of..,.such a program, similar activi-
ties might be contemplated for Allapatah; LeJeune Road West of Northwest
7th Street and other areas where there are major complements of local
serving "convenience" retail activities in physically distressed condi-
tions.
By providing improved neighborhood service levels which are directly
linked to general area upgrading, shopsteading can be helpful in rounding
out other efforts for enhanced community development.
III-28
3. Industry -Specific Training Programs
In addition to those generalized programs noted previously, a variety
of vocational educational activities can be helpful in deepening the skill
levels of Miami's labor force.
Building on programs currently furnished through such groups as Dade
Partners, the city should examine specific target industries in which
training programs of this type can prove useful.
Included in that respect would be the following:
a. Light Manufacturing. A substantial level of unskilled labor is
employed in manufacturing activities targeted for retention and expansion
within the city.
Foremost among these would be the needle trade where manual dexterity
carries a high premium.
In the past, the female Cuban labor force has been heavily employed in
these sectors. At present, however, the supply of skilled labor is declin-
ing due to increased education and better paying job opportunities avail-
able to second generation, bi-lingual Cuban women.
New in -migration groups -- including Haitians and Vietnamese --may
provide important potential sources of future labor for these sectors
provided some programs are initiated to train individuals from such back-
grounds to fill available job slots.
Although little formal training is required for sewing machine opera-
tors and leather stitchers, speed is important. Therefore, familiarity
with equipment and experience in handling garments and leather goods would
be helpful to new entrants to these industries.
Also of interest here is that fashion goods -- which form a large
potential market for manufacturing establishments in these sectors --
III-29
represent further upgrading within the industry and greater opportunities in
that respect might be accessible to Miami provided it succeeds in building
a skilled labor force in this area.
Needle trades, at present, are virtually excluded from CETA programs.
Accordingly, local efforts to introduce sewing machines and associated
manual skills into the local educational system should be intensified.
Business involvement might be sought in this respect through dona-
tions of sewing machines and other equipment as well as provision of
individuals who might assist in designing and implementing training pro-
grams of this type.
In another area, food and kindred products, labor force needs consist
primarily of unskilled labor for quality and pest control, skilled mechan-
ics for ovens, air conditioning and refrigeration, expert bakers, and
experienced industrial maintenance workers.
Except for skilled electricians and mechanics, these workers do not
require formal occupational training. Nevertheless, inclusion in local
vocational programs of background courses in mechanics, air conditioning,
refrigeration, electronics and industrial maintenance is recommended.
Specific training required in other light manufacturing industries
targeted here should be directed at:
-- Printing and Publishing: craftsmen (image assemblers,
skilled pressmen, etc.) and managerial skills.
- - Rubber and miscellaneous products: general familiari-
zation with the industry which does not have stringent
skill requirements for large portions of.its labor force.
- - Electric and electronic equipment: general industry
familiarization for unskilled and semi -skilled workers
and assemblers together with more technical courses for
electric engineers.
III-30
- - Instrument and related products. general familiarization
for production workers and more specific skills for pro-
fessionals or para-professionals engaged in clinical
chemistry,
- - Furniture and fixtures: skilled and semi -skilled workers
including large numbers of sewing machine operators.
In addition to these industries, more specific attention should be
given to the building manager and maintenance industry in regard to sub-
stantial developments that have taken place in the Central Business Dis-
trict, as well as other large-scale residential and non-residential build-
ings.
A large supporting service cadre is required to maintain and operate
structures of this type. Frequently, on-the-job training, such as that
sponsored through the Department of Labor's Private Sector Initiatives
Program, can be employed to meet a substantial portion of these, labor
skills. Upward mobility is possible here through assuming supervisory and
other semi -skilled posts within the maintenance organizations that manage
such properties.
Educational Resources. Patently, a number of skilled
requirements for these selected industries cannot be fur-
nished through CETA or other governmentally sponsored
programs as such.
Rather, these would be properly carried out through uni-
versity and other special technical educational insti-
tutions.
Accordingly, the city should identify specific skills re-
quired over time and take all appropriate steps to assure
that an adequate supply of trained individuals in these
categories can be expected through programmed university
courses of study.
III-31
b. Banking. A substantial number of bi-lingual clerical personnel
are needed by this industry. Moreover, a large proportion of highly
educated financial specialists are also required.
The city, in conjunction with the public school system and local
institutions of higher learning (e.g., Florida International University)
can make known these needs and their corollary implication for financial,
international trade and comparable courses of study.
c. Tourism: Focused more on improving service levels within this
sector, training programs pertaining to a variety of specific needs have
been offered from time to time. Unique among these has been a program at
Miami -Dade designed to enhance service levels in the tourist sector.
In light of the sensitivities of this industry to shifting market
supports -- especially where persistent problems become more widely known
-- the efforts here should be expanded to insure that tourist activity
generated by the new convention center, among other city assets, can be
well supported through high quality personnel.
Career Counseling and Job Guidance. As a complement to the afore-
mentioned industry specific training program, continued outreach in the
form of counseling to advise city residents of available job opportunities
and to assist persons in meeting basic interview -screening "entry appli-
cation," a job guidance center is recommended. Part of this program might
also include an expansion of existing state -sponsored job placement ser-
vices.
A number of communities throughout the United States have been suc-
cessful in this regard. Once again, the staff resouces here would require
the commitment of city funds, some of which can be obtained from federal
and state sources.
1I1-32
The successful realization of one key economic development objective
-- namely, a reduced level of unemployment and underemployment -- can be
measurably advanced through the type of outreach made possible under a job
guidance center similar to that proposed herein.
*
Economic Development. Commitment
Realization of prescribed Miami community objectives will require
extensive and sophisiticated action programs. This will necessitate co-
ordinated mobilization of city resources at all levels.
This would begin at the individual enterpreneur/corporate response
through to direct city catalytic roles. At each level, the objective would
be to obtain mutual reinforcement from actions taken and gain the benefi-
cial "multiplications" that can result.
At the heart of these responses lies a series of generic steps which
"transend" any one activity. Complementing those basic strategies are
other actions each of which can be pinpointed with regard to specific
locations within the city, identified physical facilities, and, of con-
siderable importance, on -going skill training to meet employment require-
ments generated by the city's substantial existing and growing industrial
base.
Finally, the foundation of an effective development program rests on
basic factual information that highlights current strengths and weaknesses
of an area's economy. The city's commitment to on -going analysis of local
and regional issues through monitoring of key economic indicators is
clearly evident in the form of the present effort. A vital and critical
"first step" in the overall process, continued updating of the challenge,
III-33
opportunities and responses set out in this report should now form an
integral part of The Miami Economic Development Program.

MIAMI OUTLOOK AND OPPORTUNITIES
APPENDIX A
MIAMI OUTLOOK AND OPPORTUNITIES
The scale and character of potential opportunities for Miami's pro-
spective economic development, outlined above in this report and detailed
in Volume II of this series, has focused on several discrete industrial 1
sectors. 1
A profile of these "targets" which follows below includes listings of st
mi
industry -specific assets and liabilities that represent important nput to
the recommended Miami strategies and action programs.
1. The Tourist Industry
Already a dominant sector, tourism is expected to gain even more
appreciably in the period ahead based on a resurgence of domestic travelers
and substantial expansion in foreign visitors.
Tourist related industries are likely to increase on the order of
3,000 jobs per year in Dade County between 1978 and 1982 according to
forecasts by the Florida Department of Labor and Employment Security.
While the greatest proportion of these will be found in the hotel and
lodging industry, a number of other sectors will also be impacted by these
gains as may be seen directly below.

A-1
Paralleling gains for 1975-77, the post -recession years, these in-
creases are well above those reported in 1978 and reflect increased
strength of tourism despite strenous competition from other southeastern
cities, most notably Orlando. In our judgment, these forecasts are opti-
mistic for hotel services and conservative for the construction sector.
In the Miami area, principal competition for these significant eco-
nomic development opportunities will come from Miami Beach, where several
major hotel renovations and possible redevelopment of the South Beach area
have been proposed. Nonetheless, Miami continues to hold several impor-
tant advantages with respect to tourist markets.
Foremost among these are a number of major assets summarized below.
Assets
Wm OD
Established reputation as the major focal point for Latin
tourism. Recent studies and surveys 1/ have shown that
as much as 70 percent of all downtown Miami hotel occu-
pancy is related to Latin visitation. And, of all Latin
tourists shoppers, 83 percent shop downtown. In addition
to the city's central area, Coconut Grove is a major
tourist attraction, particularly for Latin visitors, and
Little Havana is another important tourist place.
Ongoing construction of a major convention center and
hotel complex adjacent to the downtown.
- A major theme park proposed for Watson Island.
- Location in the city of the nation's largest cruise port.
- Momentum of the Brickell Corridor as a condominium lo-
cation for Latin buyers.

A-2
Economic development programs undertaken by the city, however, must
overcome several liabilities as well. Among the drawbacks to be considered
in this respect are:
Liabilities
Increasing competition from other Dade County locations.
In addition to hotel improvements taking place in Miami
Beach, suburban retail centers are increasingly competing
for the Latin shopper dollar, and Dade County is building
a major new zoo complex in the southwest portion of the
county.
Location of the airport outside city limits. As the
large majority of visitors arrive by air, the location of
Miami International outside the city, coupled with the
existing highway system which provides for rapid circum-
ferential movement, tends to divert tourists from the
city.
Miami Tourist Related Employment Targets. In light of past trends and
the anticipated expansion within the tourist related sector of Dade
County, the city should be able to achieve incremental job gains on the
order of 75 to 150 per annum through 1985.

It should be emphasized that this represents a minimum capture, on the
order of three to five percent of forecast Dade County employment growth
within these industries. Nonetheless, its achievement requires acceler-
ated promotion of the new convention center in the pre-1982 period and
development of new supportable hotel rooms.
2. Business Related Services
Growth in this sector -- which provides basic supports to a broad
variety of economic activities -- can be appreciable in light of Miami's
expanding role as a financial and commercial center.
Official forecasts prepared by the State Department of Labor and
Employment Security, however, reflect anticipated nationwide economic de-
clines in 1979 and 1980 and the prospective impacts of recessionary trends
on these more sensitive industry sectors.
As a result, average annual gains for Dade County between 1978 and
1982 are projected at about 600 plus jobs (2.2%), down appreciably from the
corresponding levels of 3,000 and 11.7 percent for 1977-78.
We believe that these forecasts are conservative since the substan-
tial expansion that has already taken place within Miami's financial and
commercial functions will require corollary increases in the business
services sector.
Equally as important, as the major office and governmental center
within the region, the city can capture a large share of the growth antici-
pated within these sectors.
Miami assets and liabilities in that respect -- cited immediately
below -- on balance point out several dominant advantages which can be
capitalized on.
A-4

Assets
MOD
Existence of a large and growing financial and business
community, as evidenced by the city's continuing role as
the principal office location in the region.
A concentration in the city of many government functions
including County Courthouse activities and some federal
operations.
The clustering of most local and national government
operations in the city, and notably in its Central Busi-
ness District, fortifies the city as a business location
and supports a variety of service activities.
Liabilities
- - Continuing decentralization and suburbanization of seg-
ments of the area's labor force and business community.
-- Difficult surface transportation access and overall con-
gestion in many parts of the city, particularly the
central area.
- - High cost and insufficent availability of parking down-
town.
Miami Business Related Services Employment Targets. Prospective
Miami targets with regard to the business service sector are conditioned by
the overall changes forecast for this industrial group.
Predicated on the conservative nature of state forecasts noted
earlier given the needs of a rapidly expanding financial and business
center, the city should be well positioned to capture between one-half and
two-thirds of the anticipated average annual gain of 600 plus jobs over the
next four years.
These changes are highlighted directly below.

1 Potential increases in the business service sector in light of
the 1979-80 national economic slowdown; levels forecast here
are approximately one-third of those realized during the 1977-
78 period.
3. Health Care Services
As noted previously, health care services is a "growth industry"
throughout the United States.
Dade County, which already serves as a major regional center in that
respect, will grow even more rapidly in the period ahead as reflected in
forecasts by the State Department of Labor and Employment Security.
Returning to levels last registered during the early 1970's, these
anticipated increases total almost 3,000 jobs per year.(7.6%) between 1978
and 1982.
Based on analysis reflected in this study effort, however, we believe
that these estimates may be optimistic, particularly when compared with
recent employment trends which indicate a slowdown to more moderate rates
of growth -- perhaps on the order of three percent per year, as shown
directly below.

Specific assets and liabilities that the city presents in relation to
this sector are summarized below.
Assets
- - The existence of a significant renowned hospital center
in the city.
- - The economics of business decisions in this industry,
which frequently provide strong and compelling reasons
for centralized services of this type with respect to
existing capital investments on the one hand, and link-
ages with other institutions (medical libraries, teaching
hospitals, etc.) on the other.
Liabilities
-- Continued suburbanization of the population.
-- Competition from other Dade County locations, particu-
larly Miami Beach.

Miami Health Care Services Employment Target. In light of the distri-
bution of health care services throughout the region and past performance
levels, Miami can capture between 27 and 33 percent of the adjusted pro-
jected Dade County growth in this industry, provided concerted efforts are
made to accommodate the needs of various users on a "targeted" industry -
specific basis.
More specifically, these efforts would go to accommodating expansion
needs of various health care institutions and promoting the linkage
between these facilities and related sectors such as medical equipment
research and development. The technology and instrument fabrication in
this allied sector is discussed in greater detail further below in this
section.
Were targeted shares for the city achieved in light of Dade County
forecast increases, Miami would gain between 400 and 500 jobs per years for
1978-82 in the health care service industry.

4. International Trade
Industries within this sector rely heavily on transportation and
corollary industries in the form of air, railroad, trucking, and water-
borne transport as well as warehousing services.
Administrative functions pertaining to international trade -- pri-
marily in banking and finance -- are highlighted further below in these
materials.
With respect to the categories noted, the State Department of Labor
and Employment Security anticipates growth on the order of 600 plus jobs
per year from 1978 to 1982 for Dade County.
By far the largest proportion of these gains (80%) would take place
within the air transportation industry.
We judge that the forecasts here are below likely increases given
recent industry trends. Illustratively, average annual gains of 2.4 per-
cent per year were registered for 1975-78, as compared to the state's 1.5
percent forecast for the next four years.
Accordingly, the projections presented below, against which potential
Miami. economic development targets would be established, are predicated on
greater expansion within this sector.

Miami's competitive position with respect to the county would reflect
the following assets and liabilities:
Assets
-- Location in close proximity to Latin American markets.
- - Excellent regional transportation services.
Miami's excellent seaport facilities, combined with its
access to interstate highway and rail service system,
support the city's locational attributes here.
-- Location of the Port of Miami within the city.
The strategic location of the Port of Miami vis-a-vis the
central city is a principal factor in focusing many of
the area's transportation activities to the city.
- - Planned port improvements which will further strengthen
the city's position to serve as an international trade.
hub.
- - On -going programs and activities such as the Trade Fair
of the Americas.
A-10
Liabilities
- - Off -center location with respect to major domestic
markets.
Due to its location at the extreme southeastern tip of
the United States, Miami is at a significant disadvantage
with regard to serving national and/or regional domestic
markets.
- - Lack of available land in and near the port.
- - Location of the airport outside city limits.
In the recognition that the key airport gateway lies outside the city,
distinguishing Miami and other jurisdictional employment gains attribut-
able to that transportation hub may not be relevant except that specific
economic development strategies should be designed to capture potentials
generated by that important, region and state -serving facility. Further
detail in regard to that prospect is set forth in Part III of this report.
Miami International Trade Employment Targets. In overall terms, how-
ever, an achievable target for the city is to capture approximately five to
ten percent of the adjusted forecast gains in the international trade
sectors identified here.
These targets, in the context of county growth, are cited immediately
below.

5. Banking and Finance
Miami's emergence as a major international financial center will
continue to support employment gains in the period ahead.
Forecasts by the State Department of Labor and Employment Security
indicate that 1978-1982 average annual growth within this sector for Dade
County will approximate 1.8 percent.
In light of past trends and the continued outlook for this industry
nationwide, we believe these projections to be conservative. Accordingly,
city growth targets in this sector should envision the higher level set
forth in the summary tabular materials below.

6. Manufacturing Activities
The principal sectors within this industry that have been identified
in relation to Miami prospects include:
a. Small specialized light manufacturing.
b. Aparel manufacturing.
c. Leather products
d. Food and kindred products.
a. Small Specialized Light Manufacturing. Significant sectors re-
presenting growth potential for the overall manufacturing job base in
Miami include:
-- Printing and publishing.
— -- Ruber and miscellaneous plastics products.
- - Electric and electronic equipment.
-- Instruments and related products.
- - Furniture and fixtures.
Appreciable growth is anticipated in these areas in overall terms,
with sharp gains noted for instrument manufacturing, in particular.
According to forecasts by the State Department of Labor and Employ-
- ment Security, Dade County industries in these classes will go from 29,100
in 1978 to 31,600 in 1982 for an average annual increase of 625 positions
or 2.1 percent.
These projections appear conservative, however, when viewed against
recent county trends. According to data examined as part of Volume II of
this report series, these industries as a whole were up 13 percent (2,700
jobs) per annum, 1975-1978. Instruments and related products led these
gains followed by rubber and miscellaneous plastics.
A-14
Accordingly, we believe the outlook in the period immediately ahead
is for these small specialized light manufacturing activities to increase
above forecasts established by the State Department of Labor and Employ-
ment Security. Additional information in relation to those projections is
presented immediately below.

Miami's position with regard to capturing a substantial portion of
these indicated opportunities has been examined against the background of
the following assets and liabilities.
A-15
Assets
- - The existence of a large medical community, with associ-
ated demand for specialized manufacturing activities.
- - The existence of a large business community, with corol-
lary printing needs.
- - Excellent location for export, particularly by sea to
Latin America, of manufactured goods.
- - Access to the city labor force, which has a high blue
collar worker representation.
- - A large financial community which provides all the capi-
tal resources needed by industrial establishments.
Liabilities
Lack of available sites for large-scale development.
Difficult land assembly.
- - High land costs in many parts of the city.
Outmigration of the highly regarded Cuban labor force.
Poor public transportation.
-- Congestion and difficult local transportation access.
Image as a high crime area.
Perceived low level of interest and service on the part
of governmental agencies.
In overall terms, we believe that the assets and liabilities identi-
fied above, on balance, will enable the city to capture approximately one -
eighth to one -quarter of projected expansions in these light specialized
manufacturing sectos.
Based on the Gladstone forecasts rather than the more conservative,
in our judgment, state projections, Miami's gains here for the next four
years could amount up to 15 percent of corresponding county increases.
A-16
Miami growth prospects in these sectors rest on the city's ability to
attract businesses in specific sub -categories enjoying expanding markets
and to retain existing activities. Total potential city job gains for
these industrial segments are judged to total 75 - 150 per year from 1978
to 1982, and 100-150 per year from 1982 to 1985.

appear to be at the high end of a range of potential employment gains for
the region.

Given past patterns, the principal conclusion with respect to the
apparel industry is that preserving the existing base is even more critical
than seeking to attract new companies. Accordingly, the economic develop-
ment strategies presented in Part III are focused in areas where the city
can maintain its share of regional employment in the face of overall
stability in this sector.
Specifically, Miami assets and liabilities with respect to a business
retention strategy are these:
Assets
-- Strong nucleus of operations of this type.
-- Strong nucleus of related wholesale and retail activ-
ities.
-- Support by city government agencies, particularly the
Planning Department.
-- A still significant labor poor of skilled workers.
A-18
Liabilities
-- Outmigration of many skilled workers.
-- Lack of expansion and parking space.
- - Difficult access.
- - Limited public transportation service.
-- Perception as a high crime location.
Once again, we believe a targeted industrial strategy aimed at accom-
modating expansion and locational requirements on the part of the apparel
manufacturing industry can be successful for the city. Specific com-
ponents of such a strategy have been identified in Part II1 of this Volume.
c. Leather Products Manufacture. While not representing a major
industry from the standpoint of employment, jobs in this sector are ex-
pected to rise in Dade' County from 2,600 in 1978 to 2,900 in 1982.
Miami's ability to retain its existing levels of activity in this
regard can be appreciably enhanced if an added dimension to the local
industry is provided in the form of fashion leather goods.
Increasingly, the federal government has become interested in this
sector and is seeking ways and means to aid the industry. Were the city to
capitalize on those programs, several specific advantages in relation to
high -quality luggage, handbags, and footwear may provide opportunities for
retaining this highly specialized sector given a concentration of trained
labor especially skilled with respect to manual dexterity.
In light of the specialized conditions associated with the sector,
therefore, it represents a significant opportunity combining both the
human capital resources available within the city and changing industry
requirements.
A-19
d. Food and Kindred Products. Directly responsive to population -
serving needs, this sector is expected to expand in Dade County over the
next four years paralleling increases in area residents.
Forecasts for these changes are presented immediately below.

The substantial concentration of these activities in the city at the
present time is especially found in the Wynnwood area.
That base can be retained provided appropriate public supports are
available in relation to expansion and access needs.
In addition, accommodation of activities that may seek to relocate
from other city locations would be necessary so as to maintain this sector
within the city.
7. Retail Trade
Significant gains are forecast for retail trade within Dade County
for the next four-year period.
Annual employment increases averaging 2,500 (2.2%) projected by the
Florida Department of Labor and Employment Security would bring the 1982
level to 126,500 as compared to 116,400 in 1978.
On the basis of analysis undertaken for this economic development
study, these forecasts appear to be in line with reasonable expectations
within the short-term future.
A-20
The predominent share of retail employment increases will likely
occur in suburban jurisdictions elsewhere in Dade County. A large portion
of these would be convenience trade and service oriented, two sectors that
are directly keyed to population distribution.
Nevertheless, the central place functions focused within the city --
as described elsewhere in these report materials -- would account for a
capture on the order of six to ten percent against forecast increases, in
our judgment.
Assets and liabilities of the city in relation to these activities are.
noted immediately below.
Assets
-- International reputation as a major shopping area for
foreign visitors.
-- Bi-lingual retail community.
-- Access to a large concentration of workers.
-- Major complements of specialty retail activity at Omni
and Coconut Grove.
-- Historical prominence as a comparison goods center within
the region.
Liabilities
-- Suburbanization of the regional population base.
-- Continued competition from new, more convenient suburban
shopping areas.
-- Difficult access and congestion in many parts of the
city, particularly the CBD.
-- Expensive and inadequate parking downtown.
In view of these factors, prospects for city retailing in the near
term rest on specialized marketing oriented to foreign visitors and other
n_21
tourists, city workers, and special needs of area residents. In our
judgment, potential city job increases in this sector will average 125 to
200 per year during the 1978-1985 interval.

8. Wholesale Trade
Paralleling in some respects retail activities, growth in wholesaling
and warehousing is keyed to population changes throughout the region.
An average annual gain on the order of 2.3 percent (1,150 jobs) has
been forecast between 1978 and 1982 by the Florida Department of Labor and
Employment Security.
We believe these projections are in line with reasonable expectations
for the short term future.

Only nominal captures of these employment increases are expected for
the city given a general comparison of assets and liabilities comparable to
those for the retail industry noted above, and these captures will likely
be offset by continuing outmigration.
A-22
More to the point, however, in differentiating between intra-regional
and inter -regional shipments received, the city does play a significant
role in the overall distribution network and can continue to do so in the
future.
Localized around "gateways" including rail, highway, port and airport
facilities, strategically placed transportation and trucking terminals,
warehousing facilities, and other comparable activities would allow for
the city to maintain a reasonable share of regional wholesaling activities
in the period ahead.
9. Transportation, Communication and Public Utilities
A variety of industries serving the broader regional population base
will grow in the period immediately ahead in response to expanding popula-
tion levels.
In total, local transportation, communications, and public utilities
are expected to increase at about 3.7 percent per•annum in Dade County in
1978-82.

Consistent with Miami's shares of population gains, nominal increases

However, it may be possible to increase those capute rates with re-
spect to functions in these industries that are not necessarily loca-
tionally bound but seek more central and accessible facilities when serv-
ing the overall region.
Even if the city were to increase its capture rate, however, the level
of these activities is not likely to represent major new net incremental
gains in the employment sector.
Forecasts of Miami's likely share of the projected gains for these
industries follow immediately below.
Average annual city employment growth in these sectors is estimated
at 25 to 50 for 1978-1985 (4-8 percent of projected 1978-1982 annual county
growth).

Projected to expand by 4.8 percent per annum in Dade County between
1978 and 1982, this industry in particular offers important opportunities
for the city since major branches seek central, office using locations.
While the city cannot expect theoverwhelming majority of such users --
A-24
since agents, brokers and other services are frequently decentralized --it
can obtain additional employment growth by effectively promoting its major
office resources within the downtown area and at other administrative
centers.

Miami's advantages with respect to a number of these -- most notably
legal activities -- will result in higher than proportionate shares for the
city for 1978-82.

County and the city follow below.

Overall City Employment Potential. The total level of
employment gains for the city during the latter part of
1970 and early 1980 is projected to range between 2,000
and 2,500 jobs, annually. This level of activities is
below that dimensioned earlier in this volume as needed
to realize sustained economic development growth on the
one hand, and reduced unemployment levels on the other.
The real test for the city lies in expanding growth
potential through a highly targeted economic development
strategy geared to both business retention and increased
net incremental employment gains.

I. INTRODUCTION
Before highlighting principal components of Miami's economy, the
subject of this Volume, it is useful to place these materials in the
broader context of economic development per se and the succeeding strategy
portion of this work.
The following basic concepts serve as important points of departure.
Economic Development: In conventional terms economic development
is directed to:
-- job generation
- - personal income gains
-- increased fiscal resources
- - leveraging public financial commitments through substantial
private sector investment "multiplications"
-- attaining beneficial "spin-offs" with regard to residential
and broader community development objectives.
Frequently economic development efforts emphasize the attraction
of new business and industrial activity to gain benefits in each of these
areas. While understandable, priorities assigned to "outside enterprises"
should not be overstated as the sole element of an economic development
program to the exclusion of corollary considerations.
For one thing, competition for new enterprises is extremely keen,
with the number of communities bidding for these activities far exceed-
ing the actual number of new businesses created or industrial relocations
taking place.
For another, the commercial and industrial sector of our economy is
generally consolidating in the form of higher productivity standards, a
direct result of greater emphasis placed on operating efficiencies.
Growth "industries" suitable for communities, therefore, may not be
traditional "industries" at all, but illustratively, may be found within
the service component of the economy. Thus, for example, medical services,
finance and insurance, retailing, and trade and distribution activities,
among others, may be the very sectors to emphasize in promoting economic
development. This is particularly important in relation to Miami's economy
where, as will be seen shortly in this report, substantial assets are found
in the service sector.
Therefore, growth and diversification in nurturing and expanding the
existing local enterprise base must be considered one of the strategic key-
stones to any economic development strategy.
Industrial Outmigration; Preserving the Base. Important, in this
respect, is the need to address retention and expansion of existing in-
dustries which provide the city's current employment and tax base and --
with appropriate attention and cultivation -- can significantly meet future
needs as well. Miami presently accommodates a significant component
of office, industrial distribution and retail trade activities. According
to the Miami Planning Department's Urban Information System, there was 12.9
million square feet of manufacturing space, 3.7 million square of services
space, 12.4 million square feet of retail trade space and 3.4 million square
feet of wholesale trade space occupied in the city in 1975. However, inade-
quate attention to this base, for which various cost-effective programs can
-2-
II 11111 I11111.IIIIIIIIIIA
be formulated, can result in serious economic erosion. Though lacking spe-
cific data, there are indications that the city has in recent years lost
industries to adjoining jurisdictions and must therefore formulate economic
development strategies that look 'inward' as well as 'outward'.
Therefore, d strategy of business retention, as described more fully in
Volume III of this report, is of key importance.
In addition, the need to upgrade the quality of a community's economic
base in terms of employee income, tax base per worker, value added, environ-
mental impact and public service/revenue ratios is often overlooked in
traditional economic or industrial development efforts. Growth by itself
does not necessarily have a positive community impact. Hence, attention.
must be given to achieving the right kind of growth in qualitative as well
as quantitative terms.
For all of these reasons, economic and community development are closely
intertwined. This linkage is especially significant in formulating approaches
to enhance Miami's economy, the subject of Volume III of this report.
Economic Development Generators. The essential indivisibility
between economic and community development suggests that effective public
actions in this area emphasize more than traditional measures associated
with standard industrial classifications (e.g. manufacturing, non -
manufacturing, etc.).
Rather, other important and perhaps vital issues should be addressed
at the outset so as to provide the proper balance in meeting overall
city economic development goals and objectives.
Among some of these would be:
the People: who in the last analysis represent the "basic
community resource" through their present skills, motivations,
and aspirations. Miami's unique cultural diversity coupled
with its highly upward mobile population must be acknowledged
and given proper due in the formulation of any economic
development strategy.
-3-

the Central Business District (CBD): which serves as the functional
"nerve center" for a large metropolitan region and continues to repre-
sent a major asset. Apart from accommodating a broad array of
enterprises, this area generates important fiscal returns to the
City of Miami which, in their turn, are utilized to provide ser-
vices and quality of life to Miami's citizens. The CBD is a
trade and service center in the best sense of those words, and
each new development taking place within this area is a decided
and tangible "plus" in economic development terms.
the Port: which receives and ships various commodities and which
underpinsMiami's economy. This facility also functions as a vital
"export" industry by attracting recreational -bound passengers.
As the major receiving hub located directly within the city
immediately proximate to the central business district, the port
is linked directly and synergistically with downtown financial
and trade interests. In this sense, the port's position in rela-
tion to economic development cannot be overstated.
the Airport: which is a major cargo and passenger movement
center within both the Miami metropolitan area and the south-
eastern U.S. region. The airport's location at the western
edge of the city limits lessens somewhat its direct impact on
the city's economy. Nonetheless, the airport plays a vital
role in the city's tourism sector and is closely related to
many of the financial and transportation service functions
conducted in the city.
the Convention Center: now under construction, which will
represent still another economic development generator that
will extend deeply into the community in a variety of ways.
Immediately linked to hotel activity and other supporting
uses, the convention center will also give rise to a flow of
"imported dollars" from which many key segments of Miami's
population and economy will benefit in the period ahead.
Economic development strategies that might be considered for the
City of Miami must be oriented to these community development areas as
in other more traditional industrial sectors per se, if maximum benefits
(jobs, income, fiscal revenues and the like) are to be realized.
Before returning to the findings of our analysis of Miami's economy,
therefore, it will be useful to briefly make note of approaches and
directions that are utilized in succeeding volumes of this report.

Strategy Directions. In Volume III, a number of fundamental strategies
to guide Miami's economic development efforts in the period ahead are set
forth.
These strategies reflect the area's economic strengths, delineated,
further below in this document, as well as national and appropriate regional
changes anticipated in given "industry" sectors.
The parallel "tracking" of local and national factors is essential to
formulating strategies that build on expected expansion in given sectors
while at the same time sensitizing strategies -- by deliberate policies
in the recognition of certain intrinsic local area strengths -- to
respond to even those sectors that may be contracting at the national
level. For example, specific changes taking place within the national
apparel industry are examined very closely in relation to strategies
that might be advanced for that significant manufacturing activity within
Miami's economy.
More specifically, the strategies devised in Volume III are grounded in
specific goals and, in turn, give rise to specific corollary program elements.
Illustratively, these goals are directed at:
-- providing for job growth within the city for the next five years
-- a differentiation of those jobs as among low, standard, and higher
skilled categories
-- personal income gains on a per capita basis for city residents.
-- insuring growth in the city's tax base for the next five years.
These measures are then related to a series of program elements that
include, for example, recommendations as to:
-5-
•
-- occupational categories that might be considered for vocational
education and other employment programs
-- geographic areas to emphasize for industrial development
-- candidate industrial sectors to target on
-- thematic areas to stress for various promotional materials
that will be prepared for the city
-- financial and program assistance from the public sector.
By no means exhaustive, this illustrative list is indicative of
the kinds of information that are provided in relation to an overall
economic development strategy.
A review of the materials which follow on Miami's economy may be
more usefully considered in light of these strategy directions and
economic and community development concepts.

II: ECONOMIC PROFILE HIGHLIGHTS
AND MIAMI GROWTH PROSPECTS
In the past, external factors have exerted a major influence on the
Miami economy.
During the 1950's, illustratively, tourism was spurred by the con-
struction of hotels and other attractions in the Miami Beach area. A
decade later a large influx of Cuban immigrants gave rise to substantial
increases in apparel manufacturing in relation to this new labor pool.
More recently, increased trade between the U.S. and Latin America coupled
with Miami's advantageous location has provided the impetus for increased
trade and financial activities in the Miami area.
The City of Miami, however, has not always received the primary bene-
fits of these changes. Currently, for example, Coral Gables has emerged
as a location for regional offices of major multi -national corporations.
Correspondingly, the airport and other Dade County locations outside the
city have attracted substantial numbers of import and export operations.
Nevertheless, the city has become a major international financial
center, and all indications point to a strengthening of Miami's role in
this respect.
Economic Development Initiatives. At this junction, the city desires
to play an active role in promoting economic development. An initial and
essential first step in this process must be a clarification of the na-
ture of specific opportunities available in the period ahead.
These opportunities are complex in nature, drawing on traditional and,
at times, non-traditional "industries" and linking them to available
-7-
•
resources in the context of overall economic development. Thus, the
materials which follow focus not only on specific industrial sectors
but also on "locational and facility" resources available to the city
in the forth of its central business district, gateways (port and airport
and other comparable features.
Strategies devised as part of this study focus on both of these
economic development elements as well as on a variety of activities that
can be undertaken specifically by the city government to realize oppor-
tunities in the years ahead.
Concerning the nature of opportunities, expressed both in resource
and specific "industry" terms, three principal subjects are reported on
immediately below:
1. Principal components in the economy.
2. Potential new growth sectors
3. Secondary support industries.
Against this context, likely directions of future growth for the city
are identified as are present strengths and weaknesses.
Finally, it should be noted that the conclusions highlighted here,
together with the statistical materials appearing in Volume IV of this
report, serve as the basis for formulating various economic development.
strategies, as presented in Volume III.

A. Principal Economic Components
Key industries currently contributing significantly to the area's
economy and representing opportunities for appreciable growth include:
tourism, trade, business and health services, and manufacturing.
1. Tourism: Comprised of a variety of enterprises encompassing
hotel operations, condominium development, recreation (in the form of
amusement destinations and eating and drinking establishments together with
associated entertainment operations) tourism is an important component in the
Miami economy.
In 1978, an estimated 108,100 workers, or 17 percent of all employed
persons in Dade County, were engaged in tourist -related activities (hotels and
other lodging places services, eating and drinking establishments, real
estate construction and amusement and recreation services). Every job in each
of these sectors is associated with an average payroll effect of $8,700.

Moreover, as an important "export" (basic) industry, tourism is
estimated to have a multiplier of roughly 3.3 - 3.5.3/

A highly cyclical industry, tourism is subject to considerable fluctuations
due to changes in such factors as international currency exchange rates and the
availability and price of fuel. In Dade County, employment in tourist -related
sectors dropped appreciably during the mid-1970's recession but has been rising
rapidly in more recent years, as indicated below.

places, real estate, construction, and amusement and recreation. Data for
real estate are estimated, based on State -collected covered employment infor-
mation.
Recent expansions of Miami area tourism reflect large numbers of inter-
national as well as domestic touristsY
In the former class, there appears to be appreciable growth potential
in meeting the needs of Canadian and Latin American travelers, who already
constitute almost 20 percent of Dade County's tourist market, as well as in
encouraging new segments from Mexico and Europe, which now comprise an estimated
three percent of all tourists.
Canadians now represent the second largest tourist market in Dade County,
accounting for over 10 percent of all air arrivals and over seven percent of
all auto arrivals.

II-C of Volume IV, Background Economic Indicators.

i III 11111111111111111111111111111111111111
The number of non -Canadian foreign visitors has also been increasing
rapidly. Overall, the level of foreign (excluding Canadian) arrivals in-
creased 8.7 percent between 1976 and 1977. And arrivals from certain
countries -- notably Venezuela, Argentina, Columbia, West Germany, and
France -- increased by 20 percent or more.(See page II-C-13 of Volume IV
of this report.)
This past year (1978) has been the most active year with an estimated
36 percent increase in numbers of foreign visitor arrivals over 1977. Particu-
larly large increases were recorded among Asian and European as well as South
American visitors, according to U.S. Travel Service data.

As tourism is a highly competitive industry, recent and proposed renova-
tions in Miami Beach hotelries will be important in offsetting some major
losses in tourist activity that have taken place in the immediate past and, by
so doing, enhancing overall area potentials.
Energy, of course, remains a key question mark for this industry, but
since 70 percent of all visitors to Miami arrive via air transportation,
potential negative impacts here seem to be minimized.
While competition from various quarters will be present at anytime,
Orlando represents the major alternative for many Florida visitors at this
time. Moreover, this competition will be heightened by programmed airport
improvements, attraction center expansions and other projects now underway
or to be completed shortly. (See page III-C-27 of Volume IV for a discussion
of these plans.)

2. Retail Trade: This industry, which provides comparison goods and
convenience goods and services opportunities to the local area population as
well as to an increasing number of Latin travelers, represents a major employ-
ment sector, with 116,400 or 18 percent of all county jobs in 1978, and
almost 12 percent of the 1977 county income.
As evidenced by recent employment trends, this industry was severely
impacted by the recession but has since registered strong gains.

As a local -serving, non -basic economic element, this sector is typically
focused at "functional centers", including the downtown area. According to
the 1972 Census of Retail Trade, the City of Miami captured almost 30 percent
of all retail sales in Dade County, including more than 31 percent
of all comparison goods sales. Within the city, the CBD accounted for more
than 17 percent of all retail sales and a full 27.5 percent of all comparison
good sales, in that year.
Retailing has continued to shift to suburban locations, to some extent,
since 1972. But the city still provides a major share of these activities, and
the downtown area, with at least 2.8 million square feet of retail space, remains
a major force in the regional retail community.
-12-
1111 11111111111111111111111111.1111
As the population of Dade County expands, city retail activities can
continue to play a major role within the region, serving workers and visitors
as well as the local resident base.
By providing goods and services to foreign shoppers, retailing also
serves as a "basic" (export) industry. The CBD, Omni and Coconut Grove in
particular likely derive a large -- but not directly quantifiable -- share of
their sales from this source. While theses areas compete with Coral Gables,
Miami Beach, and Dadeland for these sales dollars, growth prospects for
Miami appear strong, based on anticipated increases in the number of Latin
visitors.
3. Wholesale Trade: Serving regional distribution functions with
respect to the needs of businesses, retailers, and manufacturers, whole-
sale operations nationwide are increasingly expanding the range of services
provided so as to meet the changing needs of each of these industry sectors.
According to industry experts at the U.S. Department of Commerce
Industry and Trade Administration, the future promises tosee further develop-
ment of regional warehousing in particular, with centrally located, easily
accessible locations being favored to the extent that these can be provided.
At present, 49,100 workers are employed in Dade County's wholesale.

This sector accounted for nine percent of Dade County's labor and
proprietors income in 1977. Each job in this category results in a direct
payroll benefit of $14,000, and total region -wide multiplier effects for
this industry are estimated at up to 3.09.
According to the 1972 Census of Business, 37 percent of the county's
wholesale trade employment was accommodated in city establishments. However,
given recent trends within the industry nationwide, as noted above, coupled
with the significant levels of warehouse development that have occurred in
unincorporated portions of Dade County in recent years, the city's share
of total county wholesale trade activity has likely declined since then.
Nonetheless, wholesale trade remains an important part of the city's
economy.
A significant portion of Miami's wholesale operations are located in
the area around the Civic Center and east to the Bay along the Biscayne
Boulevard corridor. Many of these operations relate to food and furniture
industries. And while major additions to wholesaling operations are follow-
ing the population decentralization that has taken place in the immediate
past, highly specialized needs in conjunction with the port and the existing
city population base can and should be nurtured.
4. Business and Legal Services: Encompassing advertising, building
cleaning, computer and data processing, legal services, consulting activities,
and equipment leasing, among other activities, these functions are closely
tied to office centers.
In Dade County, business and legal services employment totaled 28,600 in
1978, up appreciably from 20,900 in 1972. Growth in this sector has been
particularly strong in the post -recession period.

Payroll per employee for business and legal services activities averages
$9,800 and $20,600, respectively.
Miami, as the major office and financial center within the county,
is especially well situated in regard to this industry and should find strong
growth potentials with respect to new employment opportunities in this area.
As of 1972, the city's shares of county business and legal services jobs
were 45 and 68 percent, respectively. And, while more recent data are not now
available, these shares may be even higher at present.
5. Health Services: Comprising hospitals, clinics, nursing homes and
other comparable facilities together with physician and related professional
offices, this industry as a whole has demonstrated strong growth prospects.
For Dade County, employment in the health services sector
increased from 28,000 in 1972 to 39,000 in 1978, an average rate of increase
of 6.5 percent per year. Moreover, this industry, which tends to be "recession -
proof", recorded employment gains throughout the mid-1970's recession, and is
associated with an average per employee payroll of $12,300.

While county -wide growth in this sector has slowed in recent years,
the health services industry continues to represent a potential growth area
for Miami.
Miami's Jackson Memorial Hospital, with 1,250 beds, is a major teaching
facility and attracts patients from all over the country, This and other
city medical centers serve national and regional needs and -- to some extent
-- international needs as well. (For a list of all major Miami and Miami
area hospitals, see pages II-F-5 through II-F-7 in Volume IV.)
Even while health services tend to follow population, in much the same
way as retail trade, there remains a strong and compelling reason for cen-
tralized services of this type with respect to existing capital investments
on the one hand, and linkages with other institutions (medical libraries,
teaching hospitals, etc.) on the other. In that sense, certain segments
of the health services industry make locational decisions in much the
same way as do area office users and may be inclined toward the city.
6. Apparel Manufacture: Seriously impacted by foreign competition,
this domestic industry has declined appreciably in recent years. Never-
-16-
to
theless, it remains a significant economic sector, with certain segments --
particularly fashion oriented activities -- demonstrating viable and sustained
operations. (For a more complete discussion of recent trends and future
outlook for this industry, see pages II-0-26 through II-0-29 in Volume IV of
this report.)
Dade County employment in this sector totaled 21,000 in 1978, and payroll
averaged $7,300 per employee. However, county apparel manufacture employment,
which declined appreciably during the recession years of 1974-1975, has barely
re -attained pre -recession levels.

The City of Miami, and most notably the Garment District, became a major
nucleus of apparel manufacture activities following the wave of Cuban
immigration in the 1960's. As of 1972, 40 percent of all county employment
in this industry was accommodated within the city.
Recently, however, apparel manufacturing establishments have been
attracted to Hialeah and Miami Springs, following migration on the part of the
labor force on the one hand, and more favorable opportunities for newer
facilities close to airport transportation on the other.
-17-
While growth prospects for this industry, cannot be regarded as excep-
tional, utilization of skilled labor (particularly minority women) repre-
sents an important aspect of the city's present industrial base and one
that should be supported through specific economic development and actions
in the future. Moreover, regional multipliers for this "basic" industry
are estimated at 2.659.
B. Potential New Growth Sectors
In addition to those industries now prominent in the Miami economy,
several other groups have been identified as strong growth prospects in
conjunction with changes at the national, regional, or local levels.
These industries, which are discussed below, have been selected on
the basis of a variety of research and analytical efforts, including a shift -
share analysis (see Section III-B of Volume IV),an analysis of competitive
Southeastern cities (see Section III-C of Volume IV), and interviews
with a number of industry experts at both the national and local levels.
1. International Commerce; particularly with respect to port -related
services.
As demonstrated by the statistical materials presented in Section II-B
of Volume IV of this report, Miami is an increasingly important "gateway"
city.
Exports from the Miami Customs District increased from $2.0 billion in
1974 to $3.7 billion in 1978 (an average increase of over 20 percent annually),
and imports are currently valued at $1.7 billion.
For Dade County as a whole, employment in the transportation and utilities
sector (local and interurban passenger transit, trucking and warehousing, water
transportation, transportation by air, transportation services and communication)
-18-
•
•
rose from 56,500 in 1975 to 59,700 in 1978, according to data on covered
employment submitted to the State Department of Labor and Employment Security.
According to these same data, transportation by air is the largest sub -category
in this industry, accounting for roughly 44 percent of the total.

Port -related transportation activities, covered in the water transporta-
tion and transportation services subcategories, are of particular relevance
to the City of Miami. While both these subcategories are of relatively small
size, they have grown considerably in the past couple of years. Planned port
expansions should allow for more dramatic sectoral growth over the long term.
-19-
•
The water transportation and transportation services categories are
associated with average per employee payrolls of $7,700 and $11,200, respec-
tively. The entire transportation sector, together with the public utilities
industry, accounted for almost 15 percent of total Dade County labor and
proprietors income in 1977.
2. Banking; extending Miami's rapidly developing role as an inter-
national banking community through increased trade -related and other financial
relationships with Latin America.
Miami is rapidly becoming one of the nation's major international
financial centers, with 14 foreign banks, 14 Edge Act banks, and 12 domestic
banks with active international departments. Per capita deposits in Dade
County, at $4,400 are 18 percent higher than those of Atlanta, long -regarded
as the financial hub of the Southeastern United States.
Employment in Dade County's banking sector rose from 9,000 in 1975 to
10,200 in 1978, an average annual gain of 4.4 percent, according to data on
covered employment maintained by the Florida Department of Laobr and Employ-
ment Security.

Deposits in commercial banks and savings and loans have also been increas-
ing, rising from $6.4 billion in 1970 to $11.8 billion in 1975 (an increase
averaging 17 percent per year) and to $14.9 billion in 1978 (an increase averaging
nine percent per year).

The majority of the county's banking activities are located in the City
of Miami. Twenty-six of Dade's 37 banks have offices in Miami, and city
banks account for 67 percent of total county deposits.
In sum, banking represents a growth sector with excellent future prospects.
3. Rubber/Plastics Manufacture; covering a series of specialized operations
in manufacturing keyed to rubber and miscellaneous plastics products (all of them
non -automotive related) for consumer and industrial markets.
A number of firms in the Miami area are already engaged in product manufac-
turing for export to Latin countries and local building, ship building and instru-
ments fabrication, and all of these sectors are anticipated to grow in future years.
(See pages II-D-73 and II-D-74 in Volume. IV for further information.)
According to Florida Department of Labor and Employment Security data,
Dade County employment in this category increased from 4,200 in 1975 to 7,400
in 1978, a very significant increase averaging 25.4 percent per year.

Representation of these firms within the city has not been significant
heretofore, since the greatest share have been located in Miami Lakes (partic-
ularly larger firms) and Hialeah Springs. Nevertheless, the conditions supporting
these organizations may be duplicated within the city, and therefore this
represents a potential future growth sector.
4. Electric and Electronic Equipment Manufacture. Trends in covered
employment indicate overall job gains in this sector county -wide since 1975.
Following a substantial decline between 1976 and 1977, this industry rebounded
in 1978 to a total employment level well above that of 1975.

Average Annual Change,

As of 1972, 35 percent of all Dade County employment in this category was
located in Miami. Although Miami's employment in this area has likely declined
since then, certain firms in this sector, most notably those producing small
medical diagnostic and therapeutic equipment, are still suited to the city.
Spatial and physical plant requirements in this instance are less than
those for other comparable fabricating industries, and therefore those firms
may find locations near existing medical services and research centers,such
as those found within the city, favorable with respect to their needs.
-22-
5. Instruments and Related Pl uc;iLL_. Lounty-wide, this manufacturing
group registered significant employment gains between 1975 and 1977, in-
creasing an average of 91.2 percent per year. In 1978, however, some decline
in employment was noted.

This industry is a relatively high -paying one, with an average per
employee payroll of $10,000.
Once again, the components manufactured by this industry related to
medical and other scientific devices represent a possible growth opportunity
for the city. Not only is this sector tied to the existing medical complex,
but it also has a high Latin American export potnetial thereby underscoring
locations within the region in general and the City of Miami more specifically.
(See pages II-D-66 through II-D-70 in Volume IV for further information con-
cerning this industry.)
6. Leather Products Manufacture: As with apparel, this industry --
consisting both of leather manufacturing and related products -- has been
declining due to severe foreign competition. (See pages II-D-46 to II-D-49 of
Volume IV.)
-23-
In Dade County, employment in this industry fell from 3,100 in 1975 to
2,600 in 1978.

United States hides, however, are superior to many foreign products,
and as a result there remain substantial opportunities for high quality
fashion leather manufacture.
In addition, recognizing the severe impacts that have taken place,
substantial aid from the Federal Government has been made available to
shore up this industry.
Specific potentials for Miami include high quality luggage, handbags
and footwear enterprises which can take advantage of the existing and highly
regarded labor force found in the region and needed by this industry.
7. Household Furniture Manufacture; particularly rattan, upholstered
and other casual and patio furniture.
This industry is already well established in Miami, serving local, Latin
American and Californian markets. (For further information on this aspect
of the household furniture manufacture sector, see pages II-D-36 toll-D-38 in
Volume IV of this report.)
Dade County employment in the furniture and fixtures group, of which
household furniture is the major component, has showed steady increases in
recent years.

Levels of activity in this sector should continue to expand in the
future to accommodate increasing demand. Once again, these enterprises
profit by the existence of an excellent local labor force, including those
trained in upholstering -type functions by their experience in apparel manu-
facture.
C. Secondary Support Industries
Finally, it should be noted that many of the sectors identified above
rely on inputs from other industrial sectors. Therefore, growth in these
sectors will result in expansions elsewhere in the economy,as for example:3/
1. Tourism: with respect to associated construction, banking,
eating and drinking, retail sales, entertainment, commercial printing,
transportation, utilities and business service activities.
2. Health Services: encompassing instruments and equipment manu-
facture, furniture manufacture, textile products, and miscellaneous
plastic products fabrication, as well as insurance, utilities, real estate
and business services.
3/ These related industry sectors are taken from national input/output analyses
undertaken by the U.S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of Economic Analysis.
See pages IV-A-4 to IV-A-20 in Volume IV.
-25-

3. Apparel: consisting of miscellaneous plastic products serving
as accessories to that industry, plus transportation, utilities, trade,
and business services.
4. International Trade: covering transportation and related
services, banking and communication, wholesale trade, insurance
and business services.
5. Miscellaneous Plastics: including the transportation and trans-
portation -service sectors, utilities, wholesale trade and business services.
6. Electronic Equipment and Instruments: correlated with manufac-
turing found in the miscellaneous plastics products lines and also trans-
portation and business services.
7. Household Furniture: together with plastic products, textile
fabrication, chemicals, transportation and business services.
Likely City Growth Directions; In Review
In sum, the previous discussions suggest a number of areas for
likely and promising economic growth for the City of Miami in the period
ahead.
Encompassed in that respect are:
1. Tourism: With increasing concentration on international tourism
complementing an expanding domestic market.
2. Business Services: In support of a variety of office -using
industries centralized within the downtown area, as well as other categories.
3. International Trade: Especially operations growing out of the
seaport and airport.
4. Banking and Finance: With increased emphasis on international
operations.
-26-
•
5. Small Specialized Light Manufacturing Activities: Including those
related to plastics, electronic and similar instruments, household furni-
ture and related products.
Assets and Liabilities; A Preliminary Listing
Prospective economic development strategies that might be operationalized
by the city must reflect area strengths and weaknesses in addition to specific
growth prospects for existing and possible new industries.
In concluding this summary highlights section, therefore, various assets
and liabilities that have been identified in the course of our work are
summarized in outline form.
A. Area Strengths
1. Location in close proximity to Latin American business and tourist
markets.
Miami's excellent location with respect to Latin markets has been
a primary force behind the emergence of the city (and other Dade County
locations) as a major financial, trade, and service center. Latin
markets also help support certain manufacturing sectors and provide
a strong source of tourist demand, particularly in the summer months,
to offset cyclical and seasonal domestic markets.
2. Excellent regional transportation services.
Miami's excellent seaport and airport facilities, combined with
its access to interstate highway and rail service systems, support
the city's locational attributes and underscore its superior competi-
tive position as a service and tourist center.
Miami's port boasts 32 berths, including 10 roll-on/roll-off
berths, and a channel depth of 36 feet.
Miami International Airport houses 69 carriers compared to
Tampa's 15, New Orleans' 14, 0rlando's 11 and Atlanta's 9. Atlanta --
long-considered the southeast regional hub -- serves more passengers
than does Miami, but Miami carries 55 percent more freight.
3. Location of the Port of Miami within the city.
The strategic location of the Port of Miami vis-a-vis the central
city is a principal factor in focusing many of the area's trade, trans-
portation, banking, and service activities to the city.
-27-
An existing and growing business and financial community, including
significant capital resources.
With nearly 652,000 jobs and a capital resource base of $17.7
billion (see page 44), the Miami area represents a business and
financial community of considerable magnitude. Of the major etro-
politan areas in Florida and the Southeastern United States, JMiami
supports more jobs than any but Atlanta and has the highest level
of commercial bank deposits per capita.
This existing viable business community provides the momentum
and support for future growth and reinforces the aforementioned
locational and transportational attributes.
5. A bi-lingual labor force and bi-cultural environment.
The large Latin component in the Miami area provides a comfort-
able and familiar environment for international trade and tourist
activities. Miami offers all the language and social benefits of a
Latin American location together with the superior communication
network and security features of a United States location.
Fi. A large and varied labor force, including a large component of
highly regarded minority and female labor.
7. Greater diversity in working conditions through right-to-work
legislation.
Interviews with industry leaders in a variety of fields and
at both the national and local levels revealed the high regard in
which the Miami area labor force is held. The existence of this
respected labor force, combined with state right-to-work legislation,
makes Miami an attractive location for many business operations.
8. Favorable wage rates in relation to other southeastern locations.
For example, the average production worker wage in manufacturing
was $3.92 per hour in the Miami area versus $4.85 in Tampa -St. Peters-
burg and $5.18 in Atlanta, according to the 1976 Annual Survey of
Manufacturers. Comparative rates as among these three cities for
selected industry groups are given below.

9. An appealing climate and attractive physical environment.
Miami's warm weather and its beautiful landscapes have always
attracted people. However, while these attributes are typically
associated with the area's tourist industry, its importance with
respect to attracting business relocations should not be discounted.
Our interviews with members of the local business community revealed
that these features played an important role in the decision to move
here for many.
10. A concentration in the city of many government functions, including
County Courthouse activities and some Federal operations.
The clustering of most local and national government operations
in the city, and notably in its Central Business District, fortifies
the city as a business location and supports a variety of legal and
other service activities.
B. Area Liabilities
1. Apparent poor business image nationwide.
Our interviews with a large number of local and national business
people, real estate agents, and industry experts revealed that Miami
generally suffers from a poor image. To many, Miami is a "sun and fun"
city -- a tourist destination, rather than a serious business community.
Moreover, Miami is often confused with Miami Beach; the city's identity
as a separate entity is not sufficiently strong.
2. Off -center location with respect to major domestic markets.
Due to its location at the extreme southeastern tip of the
United States, Miami is at a significant disadvantage with regard
to serving national and/or regional domestic markets.
-29-
•
3. Perceived poor educational system.
The perceived poor quality of the Dade County public school
system tends to discourage businessmen from relocating to the
area, according to our interviews with industry and community leaders.
4. Lack of available city sites for large-scale industrial development
5. High land costs.
The scarcity of available land in desirable sections of the city,
coupled with the use of broad zoning categories (i.e., C-3) which allow
the development of uses which support higher land values on property
appropriate for warehouse/industrialactivity, results in high land
costs in Miami. And prices for prime industrial land in Dade County
are higher than those in competitive Southeastern cities.
Typical values for serviced industrial property in Maimi, selected
Dade County locations and selected competitive cities are given below.
These estimates represent a concensus of opinion of a variety of
realtors, developers and public officials surveyed in the course of
our research.

6. Suburbanization of the population and business community.
7. Corollary outmigration of highly regarded Cuban labor force.
8. Difficult surface transportation access and overall congestion,
particularly downtown.
-30-
9. Poor public transit service.
10. High cost and insufficient availability of parking downtown.
The above five factors, taken together, exert pressure on
both industry and office -using businesses to locate outside the
City of Miami.
11. Perceived Boor level of services and cooperation by government
agencies.
12. Image as a high crime location.
13. Fiscal uncertainties (city and county levels).
The above concerns were conveyed to us both directly and
indirectly (i.e., through community groups) by the Miami business
community.
14. Need for improved cooperation among various governmental agencies
and between the public and private sectors.
15. Lack of coordinated, targeted and effective business retention
and expansion program.
These last two problem areas reflect both concerns raised
by area business leaders and our own observations from working
in the community.
A more detailed examination of regional and city economic profiles
follows in Section III. Thereafter, the context of this investigation is
broadened to take account of national patterns and the outlook in key industries
to set the stage for the economic development strategies that are formulated in
Volume III of this study.

III. THE MIAMI ECONOMY
0
An evaluation of the Miami ecomony must cover the broader "Economic
Unit" within which the city functions. Analysis of the city and metropoli-
tan area covered below touches on:
A. Demographic Characteristics; and
B. The Area Economic Profile.
Key findings set forth here are subsequently compared to and evaluated
against national and regional economic growth patterns and Miami's competi-
tive position in light of anticipated changes. (Section IV below).
A. Demographic Characteristics
As noted in the introduction to this report, the people of Miami
represent an important resource directly linked to economic development
potentials in the future.
In brief, pertinent characteristics with respect to the city and regional
population base (detailed in Section I of Volume IV of this report)
1. Population Growth: the Miami Economic Region, consisting
of Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties, has increased
by an average of over 90,000 persons per year since 1970.
Dade County accounted for over 30 percent of this growth.
In light of increasing suburbanization and substantial
prior development, the City of Miami increased approxi-
mately 1,200 per annum for 1970-1978.
-32-

Miami Economic
Region 90,200 2,958,400
Dade County 28,300 1,494,300
City of Miami 1,200 344,400J
1/ The official City of Miami estimate is somewhat
higher, at 348,700.
2. Components of Population Change: The rapid increase in
regional population during the 1970's was attributable
primarily to in -migration.
For example, in Dade County nearly 90 percent of the
registered increase since 1973 related to newcomers.
In contrast, the City of Miami likely experienced a
net decline in migration (i.e., out -migration ex-
ceeding in -migration) with the resulting population
increases noted for 1970-1978 directly attributable
to natural increase (i.e., excess births over deaths).
3. Population Composition. Minorities comprise a signifi-
cant portion of the region's population base.
Approximately one-third of Dade County inhabitants in
1978 were Hispanic. The corresponding level for blacks
was 16 percent.
In 1975, over three-quarters of the city's population was
represented in minority groups, with Hispanics accounting
for approximately one-half of the population and blacks
another 28 percent.
In summary terms, the population profiles. of these
respective areas in these years were as follows.

Total Population -- 1,468,300
4. Population Age: Of interest from the standpoint of econ-
omic development policies and strategies, almost 62
percent of the region's population was in prime working
age groups (15 to 64) in 1977. In Dade County, two-
thirds of the population fell in those age brackets in
that same year.

5. Elderly. As with the nation, the number of senior citi-
zens found within the region and jurisdictional popula-
tions have increased in recent years. By 1977
approximately 15.5 percent of Dade County residents were
over 65, in contrast to 13.5 percent in 1970.
Reflecting in -migration of retired persons, the.corres-
ponding percentage for the region was 18 percent in 1977,
as compared with 15 percent in 1970.

1978, up from 1.2 million in 1975.
Approximately 54 percent (688,000) of the 1978 labor
force resided in Dade County.

While data reflecting city levels are not available,
higher levels of unemployment have been noted.
8. Minority Labor Force. As a direct result of its role
as a principal jurisdiction accommodating area minor-
ities, Miami's labor force is largely made up of
minority persons. Even in Dade County, approximately
three and four persons out of every 10 seeking jobs through
-35-
the State Employment Service are Mispanic and black
individuals, respectively.
9. Labor Force by Sex. Participation rates by women and
men in the County are generally comparable to those
for the nation.
Most importantly, to maintain and improve household
income -- as noted further below -- many women have
been actively engaged in the labor force. Projections
by the local labor market analyst of the Florida State
Employment Service indicate that in 1980 over 49 per-
cent of all county women will be in the labor force.

10. Employment Classifications. As a direct result of
continued growth in service sectors -- both for the
nation and the region -- about one-half of the
metropolitan employment in 1978 was in "white collar"
categories of professionals, managerial, sales and
clerical positions; one-third in'"blue collar"
classes of operatives, etc ;and the remainder in
service and farm categories.

2/ Craft and kindred, operatives, and non -farm

Owing to the greater minority. and lower skill
representation found in the city's labor force,
the proportionate classifications are different
than those for the region. As of 1970, 41
and 39 percent, respectively, of the city's
labor force were found in the white and blue collar
categories, compared to 51 and 32 percent for
Dade County. 1
11. Personal Income. In 1977, per capita personal
income was estimated at approximatley $7,755 for
County residents with a corresponding level for
the region set at $7,801.
In contrast, the per capita personal income for
the United States as a whole in 1977 was set at
approximately $7,050.

These salient demographic characteristics for the region and the
city are directly related to Miami's economic profile as may be seen in
the concluding portion of this section which follows.
B. The Econoa
By their very nature economic regions encompass areas extending beyond
prescribed jurisdictional lines.
Accordingly, the analysis which follows focuses on both the metropolitan
area, consisting of Dade County, and the City of Miami itself, and differen-
tiates between the two, data permitting.
1. The Metropolitan Economy. By all measures, Dade County's economy
is dominated by the service and trade sectors. In 1978, these sectors
accounted for 49.6 percent of the region's jobs, up from 48.8 percent in 1972.
-37-
This finding underscores the concept of community development
touched on in the introduction to this report and further highlights
the significance of non -manufacturing activities to the future economic
vitality and growth of the Miami area.
a. Services: Representing approximately.24 percent of all
employment, the arrayof services found within the metropolitan Miami
is a reflection both of regional hub activities ("basic") accommodatinc
the needs of southeastern Florida, as well as local -serving functions
("non -basic") meeting the needs of a variety of activities and enterprises
located directly within the region.
Health services account for a major component of this sector followed
by ancillary business services and the lodging industry. (For further de-
tails on employment trends in the services sector, see page I-B-10 of Volume IV
of this report.)

Average Annual Change: Of key import from the standpoint of
economic development strategies, the service sector supported
an average annual increase of approximately 4,400 jobs within
the region since 1972. Since this period covers the mid-1970
recession years when actual declines were registered, growth
within this sector has even been sharper. Since 1975, for
example, average annual gains were over 5,800 led by expan-
sions in the business and health services community.

In establishing prescribed targets for job generation in the
period immediately ahead, the economic development strategy
that will be forthcoming here will take full account of this
important segment of Miami's economy both with respect to
the number of positions that may be made avaialble as well
as the composition of those jobs especially in relation to
low as well as higher skill levels.
b. Trade: Within the trade sector, retailing is by far the dominant
activity, accounting for roughly 7 of every 10 jobs. However, wholesale
functions are becoming increasingly important.

since 1975. A full 70 percent of the recent gains were
in the wholesale trade subsector.

Region -serving retail trade activities in Miami are concentrated in
the Central Business District and at Omni. Concentrations of wholesale
trade operations are found along the Biscayne Boulevard corridor and in the
Civic Center area.
c. Government: Complementing the changes in the service sector
are those for government.
Going from slightly more than 11 percent of metropolitan jobs in 1972
to over 14 percent in 1978, average annual increases here have accounted
for almost 4,600 jobs, with the predominant portion of those (77 percent)
at the local level.
Traditionally less affected by cyclical economic developments, this
sector was the only one which did not register declines during the
1974-1975 recession years.

Moreover, government is an important generator of non -local funds.
For example, a full 24 percent of all City of Miami revenues for FY 1978-1979
are expected to come from Federal and State sources. (See page IV-C-2 in
Volume IV.)
d. Manufacturing: Manufacturing is an important export ("basic")
industry, bringing in money from outside the region and providing spin-off
benefits locally.
As a group, Dade County manufacturing industries gained nominally during
the 1970's.
Selected sectors, however, advanced significantly during that time, as
may be seen in the summary table following.

Of importance from the standpoint of formulatinn an economic development
strategy for the City of Miami, emphasis in these sectors -- consistent with
national outlook and locational decision criteria -- represents an important
point of departure for specific city programs.
0f particular interest here is that an estimated 93 percent of all new
businesses in the Miami region come from within the region, and of the re-
locations from outside the region 28 percent come from within the State of
Florida.

-42-
Apparel: While subject to major competition from abroad and
characterized by generally lower skill levels at the present
time, apparel represents a key industry to the City of Miami
and it labor force. Even in the face of substantial compe-
tition, employment in this sector since the mid-1970 recession
has gained by over 800 jobs per year, comprising approximately
one -fifth of total manufacturing job increases. In formulating
a balanced economic development strategy, therefore, ways and
means for accommodating this industry -- taking account of its
utilization of both lower and higher skilled levels -- should
be addressed. Moreover, given the geographic distribution of
recent years, with increasing movement toward the northwestern
suburbs, devising specific strategies to "intercept" and better
accommodate this important sector will also be necessary.
e. Finance and Banking. While somewhat prone to cyclical changes,
this industry -- which includes a significant sector devoted to international
activities -- represents a sizeable portion of Miami's economic base.
In 1972, finance and banking (together with real estate and related
functions) accounted for 41,000 jobs, increasing to 46,500 in 1978, following
a mid-1970 recession -related dip. The finance sector alone accounted for an
estimated 18,700 jobs in 1978, up from 16,200 in 1975.
More to the point, the "critical mass" represented by this industry has
served as a key ingredient in support of central business district expansion
within the city itself. As will be noted further below, that activity -- in
its own terms -- reflects an important component of city -based economic
development.
Bank deposits represent one measure of increased domestic as well as
international trade activity within the financial community, and bank deposits
in Dade County totaled $17.7 billion in December 1978. In comparison, the
larger metropolitan Atlanta area, long regarded as the southern banking center,
had $7 billion of commercial deposits as against Dade's $6.6 billion in June 1978.

f. Construction: The most volatile industry from the standpoint
of cyclical changes, construction was off appreciably (by almost 40 per-
cent) in the mid-1970's, bottoming out at about 24,400 jobs in 1976 and
rebounding somewhat to approximately 30,500 in 1978. Declines here were
partially offset.by recent building activity in the downtown area and the
overall economic recovery evidenced within the nation as well as metropolitan
Miami in recent years.
Uncertainties in the local and general economy, however, make it
unlikely that recovery to the 1973 high of over 45,000 jobs will occur in
the period immediately ahead.
Construction Jobs,

g. Tourism: Building on the natural resource and amenity of Miami's
weather, business and recreational travel to the area under the general
category of tourism is substantial.
-44-
Moreover, from the standpoint of economic development, these travelers
support many allied sectors, including lodging, eating and drinking
establishments,and entertainment facilities.
A major development in this respect is the previously discussed
Convention Center, together with its functional ties to the city's hotel
industry. By considerably advancing Miami's competitive position, this
facility will further strengthen travel directly to the city in place of other
locations within the metropolitan area (e.g., Miami Beach).
Several indices of the level of tourist activities in the Miami area
may be found in total rooms available, hotel receipts, and occupancy trends.
Presently, the city accounts for about 10 percent of total area hotel in-
ventory. The recently built Omni Hotel accounts for 550 of the city's rooms.
The region as a whole has an inventory of. nearly 66,600 hotel rooms,
down from 68,600 in 1977. Hotel receipts in the County totaled roughly $544
million in 1978, and occupancies for 1977 averaged 62 percent in Miami Beach
and 65 percent in other Dade County locations.
Significantly, the positions within the hotel industry and its related
sectors (food and beverage, most notably) provide important opportunities
for lower skilled individuals, many of whom are city residents. For example,
the food and beverage sector employs approximately 33,400 persons in the
County at present, and the hotel industry employs about 17,700.
The tourist sector can be expected to be fortified in the period ahead.
This expansion will provide opportunities for balancing the economic development
strategies toward unskilled (primarily minority) individuals thereby
appreciably reducing higher levels of unemployment frequently characterizing
those groups.

As indicated by these brief highlights, the Miami area's diversifed
economy is dominated by the service sector and in certain instances -- e.g.,
construction, tourism, etc. -- is subject to significant weaknesses prompted
by downward national cyclical trends. Even in the face of such declines,
however, the appreciable resource base existing in the area provides
several important assets upon which a city economic development strategy
may build. The relative position of Miami with respect to the metropolitan
area, in that respect, is reflected in the analysis which follows.
-46-
2. The City of Miami. No other single jurisdiction comes close to
the city's predominance in providing an overriding share of the job oppor-
tunities found within metropolitan Miami.
While recent data in this respect are not available, the city provided
almost three out of every 10 jobs in 1975 -- the peak of the recession --
down from about one-third in 1970.
With the continued development and expansion of suburban areas, it seems
likely that the City's relative share of the regional job base will continue
to decline. But, in absolute terms, the number of jobs in the city should
. gain appreciably.
Future jobs gains in Miami will continue to be tied to the major
"locational and facility" resources available in the City, including the
People, the Central Business District, the Seaport, the Airport and the
Convention Center. Therefore, this section of the report focuses on a
discussion of these resources.
a. The People. Many of the important socioeconomic characteristics
of Miami's population have been summarized earlier in this report. However,
two additional points, particularly relevant in economic development terms,
should be emphasized.
First, Miami's unique bi-lingual and bi-cultural population base has been
key to the area's emergence first as•a significant focal point for labor-
intensive industry and then as a major international trade and financial center.
The city's continued ability to provide a high -quality labor pool for selected
light manufacturing activities and a bi-lingual, bi-cultural labor pool to
serve international operations is vital to its future economic growth. In
-47-
.14
this respect, the assimilation of the second generation of Cuban immigrants
must be considered, along with potential new opportunities afforded by Haitian,
Vietnamese and other immigrant groups.
And second movement of the people out of the city and into outlying
locations has important implications for the city's ability to retain existing
businesses and attract new ones. In this respect, this resource is directly
linked to the provision of in -town housing opportunities for a variety of
population groups. City plans for a New Town In -Town just north of the CBD
can represent a major commitment in this area.
b. Central Business District. As noted previously, the City of
Miami has accommodated a major share of metropolitan service activities,
and many of these are located within the Central Buisness District.•
Even with the continued growth of many suburban jurisdictions, over one-
half of all general occupany office space in the region is located within the
city, primarily in the downtown and proximate Brickell Avenue area.
In broad terms, the distribution of general occupancy private office
space within the region and city is estimated as follows:
Area
Percent of Total
City of Miami
Downtown 29.1
Brickell Ave. 11.7
Other 12.8
Total City 53.6

Palmetto 10.8
Other. 19.3
Total Suburban
Grand Total
-48-
46.4
100.0% (11,536,350 s.f.)
Of particular significance with respect to jobs, construction, and
overall economic development activity, plans for future office development
are likely to strengthen the downtown-Brickell Avenue location.
Major projects, such as Ball Point, the Southeast Bank Building and the
Government Center,combined with a variety of Brickell buildings, represent
as much as six million square feet of office space, nearly doubling the
1972-1978 level of activity.
This continuing "centrality" will reinforce and expand Miami's role as
an administrative center providing job opportunities in selective service
centers relating to finance, banking, business and services and government
activities.
Retail Trade Activities: Paralleling the "Center Place Functions" role
played by the CBD with reference to office development is the downtown's
role as reflected in retailing activity.
Despite population out -migration and the continued development of
suburban jurisdictions, carrying with it further retail decentralization, the
city captured close to 30 percent of total retail sales in the metropolitan
area in 1972, with 17 percent of those occurring directly within the Central
Business District.
Even more significant has been the strong competitive position reflected
in shoppers goods (general merchandise, apparel and furniture) categories,
where 31 percent of all sales were accounted for by city establishments and
the CBD captured fully 27.5 percent of all city sales.
In proportionate terms, the level of activity captured by city outlets
continues to decline relative to other suburban metropolitan jurisdictions.
-49-
Nevertheless, appreciable gains in absolute dollar sales demonstrate the
primacy of city retail activities.
Illustratively, one retail trade position was supported, onthe aver-
age, by $63,500 in retail sales in 1972.
Applying this index to estimated sales levels in 1978 (based on overall
metropolitan growth and a conservative "share" of 25 percent of regional
sales levels) approximately 20,300 jobs would be found in that sector alone
within the city.
Retail trade will continue to be a major economic sector for the city
on the strength of the resident population, coupled with many tourists,
including particularly Latin shoppers, who favor the CBD and the major
center that has been developed at Omni.
Accordingly, appreciable emphasis should be given to retail trade
-- both for its significance in overall terms as well as the character
of jobs found in that sector -- in the economic development strategies
to follow.
c. The Seaport and Distribution Functions. Directly adjacent to
the Central Business District, this major facility supports a large number
of jobs in Miami, including those in transportation, transportation ser-
vices, finance, insurance and manufacturing related industries. At present,
an estimated half billion dollars is generated in the county economy from the
facility.
The volume of tonnage handled by this port has grown from one-half
million tons in 1969 to 1.9 million tons in 1978.
Loadings (in the form of containers and general cargo) continue to
rise with bulk shipments accounting for a larger share of all movements.
-50-
Equally as significant, passenger loadings increased from 200,000
in 1969 to one million in 1978.
Proposed.$220 million improvements will expand nearly all port facili-
ties by the year 2000. Included in the long-range plan are the following:
- Five to eight new passenger berths.
- Seven to ten new break bulk berths.
- Nine to twelve new trailer, ro/ro berths.
- Five to seven new container, lift-on/lift-off berths.
These improvements are expected to support the following levels of
port activity by the end of the century.
- 3.9 million cruise ship passengers (up nearly 300% from
current levels); and
- 15.6 million tons of cargo (up 720% over current levels).
Twelve percent per year growth is expected in container lift-
on/lift-off cargo, 9.5 percent in trailer roll-on/roll-off
cargo; and 7.5 percent in break bulk.
Based on a multiplier of 2.5, the port is expected to generate $3.8
billion per year in Dade County by the year 2000.
Port related activities -- either located directly within that facility
or complementary activities -- account for a significant number of jobs
within the city. (See page II-B-14 of Volume IV,)
Including shipping, trucking, and distribution classes, these jobs
extend beyond the port itself and reflect, by and large, the larger dis-
tribution role played by the city for both the metropolitan. area and, more
broadly, southeastern Florida.
While definitive data are not available, these distribution functions
(geared to trucking, rail, shipping and air modes) represent a decided asset
in the city's economy even while the substantial portion of the last named
activity lies outside of Miami's jurisdictional limits.
-51-
Steps have already been taken to capitalize on these assets, in part,
through the aforementioned major improvement program for the port. Never-
theless, an analysis of past trends suggests that the city is losing ground
in other distribution functions where warehousing and transportation are
key components.
Industrial Warehouse Development: Unlike office development,
in which the city has excelled, the present inventory of in-
dustrial floor space accounts for less than 10 percent of the
metropolitan total. We have reason to believe that a large
portion of this is antiquated and therefore competitively dis-
advantaged with respect to comparable suburban floor space.
Wholesale trade, a reflection of the distribution function
highlighted here, accounts for approximatelyone-half of the
city's total industrial space. While not labor intensive per
se, these uses complement others found in the distribution
sector and, equally as important, manufacturing and retail trade
activities, all of which do account for an appreciable com-
ponent of employment.
d. The Airport and Related Functions. Although Miami International
Airport is located at the fringe of the city, it nonetheless exerts a
powerful impact on city business activities.
Major operating statistics illustrate the tremendous growth experi-
enced at this facility in recent years:
- Total passengers increased from 10.7 million in 1970 to
16.5 million in 1978;
- International passengers increased from 3.4 million to 5.9
million during that same period;
-52-
- Freight and express traffic increased from 514 million
pounds in 1970 to one billion in 1978; and
•International cargo rose from 311 million tons to 751
million tons over the 1970-1978 interval.
An estimated 35,000 jobs are directly related to the airport. An addi-
tional 35,000 jobs are created indirectly. The total economic impact of
the facility is estimated at $3 billion annually.
A $55-million expansion of the airport, including a new customs and
immigration area which will effectively triple the amount of space avail-
able for processing international arrivals, is already underway, and other
improvements are planned.
The Miami Free Zone, now just getting underway at a Dade County loca-
tion about 4 miles west of the airport, combined with the $25 million World
Trade Center planned for downtown, will further strengthen trade activities
at both the airport and the seaport.
While many of the import/export activities associated with the airport
are being attracted to locations outside the City of Miami, a significant
level of these functions are locating within city limits. In addition,
support banking, insurance and related activities are frequently located
in the city, particularly in the downtown-Brickell area. Increased air-
port operations in the future will strengthen the city's role in this respect.
e. The Convention Center. At present, the Miami metropolitan area
attracts roughly 200 conventions and 100,000 delegates each year, and most
of these are accommodated in Miami Beach or other areas outside the city.
However, the $60 million conference/convention/hotel complex now under
construction in downtown Miami will significantly enhance both the regional
and, more importantly, city capture of the national convention market.
-53-
Both the Convention Center itself and the associated hotel improve-
ments will provide impetus to the growing Miami tourist industry.
These facility resources will continue to help support a wide range
of traditional and non-traditional "industries" in Miami in the future.
Before addressing the broad array of economic development strategies
that might be initiated to meet Miami growth objectives in the period
ahead, the outlook at the national and regional level has been explored
as set forth immediately below in Section IV which follows.
-54-
IV. NATIONAL AND REGIONAL GROWTH PERSPECTIVES
The overall economic environment influencing the United States, of
course, affects regions and local jurisdictions throughout the nation.
More important, however, are the anticipated fortunes of industrial
sectors presently located within Miami and others that might represent
important growth industries which are currently underrepresented.
In order to effectively set the stage for the formulation of city
economic development strategies, therefore, extensive research, including
discussions held in collaboration with the United States Department of
Commerce (Industry and Trade Administration) has been conducted to determine
the outlook for selected industrial sectors which have an appreciable bearing
on Miami's economy.
In addition, an examination of "competitive metropolitan areas" located
elsewhere within the South and Southeast has been undertaken, primarily
through analyses of statistical data and a broad array of interviews.
Principal findings growing out of these investigations are set forth
immediately below in this section.
A. National and State Trends
Uncertainties that have characterized the national economy during
the 1970's were reflected in the modest increase in jobs between 1972
and 1977.
Setting aside the 1974-75 recession when actual declines were recorded,
total United States employment increased by an average of two percent per
annum over the past five years and accelerated during the expansionary post -
recession period to three percent per annum.
-55-
Reflecting more extreme trends, employment for both Florida and Miami
tended to expand more rapidly during improved national economic conditions
and decline more sharply during downturns.
On the whole, however, Florida employment grew by almost one -and -
one -half times the rate for the nation for 1972-1977.
The Miami economic region generally paralleled the up and down trends
for the United States but was subject to more extreme fluctuations, with
higher growth in periods of expansion and larger declines during times
of economic contraction. (For more detail on the above -described employment
trends, see Section III -A of Volume IV.)
Of key significance here, employment at the national and regional
levels for the 1972-1977 period showed significant growth in a number of
sectors including:
-- trade
-- finance, insurance and real estate
-- a variety of service categories.
Those sectors, appropriately differentiated in the data set forth
in the supplement to this report,provide important insights to pro-
spective economic development strategies for Miami.
B. Miami's Competitive Position in Southeast Florida
Overall, the growth pattern for Dade County remains mixed in the
context of national and regional economic parameters.
In comparison to a growth of approximately 10 percent for both the
nation and the Miami economic region, Dade County employment was up less
than seven percent from 1972 to 1977. But, more recently (1976-1977),
-56-
County employment continued to increase at about four percent, comparing
favorably to the nation's slower (approximate three percent) rate but
below that for the region (set at 5.5 percent).
Specific Industry Sectors. Principal sectors accounting for county
employment growth included:
-- transportation and public utilities; and
-- wholesale trade.
The county also out performed the nation in:
-- construction jobs gained
--•manufacturing; and
-- governmental employment.
With respect to the Economic Region of which it is a part,
Dade County has been losing its market share of many economic categories
to Broward. A shift -share employment analysis of the United States, the
Miami Economic Region and Dade County corroborates this conclusion.
Shift -Share Evaluation. The purpose of this technique is to analyze
the underlying causes of economic trends. For instance, by disaggregating
employment growth into its component parts, a shift -share analysis allows
for the evaluation of local area employment changes in the context of regional
economic trends. The results of the analysis provide the following indices
of local area employment change:
(1) The Regional Perspective -- the amount of local change
attributable to growth in total regional employment;
(2) The Industry Mix Effect -- the amount of local change
attributable to growth in that specific industry sector
in the region; and
-57-
(3) The Relative Competitive Position Effect -- the amount
of local change attributable to the local area's capture
of regional growth in the specific industry sector, as
measured by the difference in growth rates in the indus-
try sector between the local area and the region.
Once the component parts of employment change have been identified,
a better forecast of potential future growth, within the context of national
and regional prospects, can be made.
For this study, a shift -share analysis covering two separate levels
of evaluation wa$ undertaken. At the first level, the Miami Economic Region
was compared to the United States as a whole. In this case, the Miami Economic
Region constituted "the local area" and the nation was "the region". At
the second level, Dade County was compared to the Miami Economic Region.
Here, Dade County represented "the local area" while the Miami Economic
Region was "the region".
This shift -share analysis covered the timeframe 1973-1976. The year
1973 was selected because it was the last year before the major impact of the
recession, and 1976 was chosen because it was the last year for which detailed,
consistent employment data for all three geographical areas under evaluation
were available. The data used in the analysis were taken'from:bounty:Business
Patterns, an annual publication of the United States Department of Commerce
covering private sector employment covered under state unemployment compensa-
tion programs.
-58-
Major findings of this shift -share analysis are highlighted below:
Miami Economic Region vis-a-vis the United States.
-- the Miami Economic Region lost market share to other
United States locations in every major industrial cate-
gory with the exception of manufacturing.
-- within manufacturing, the Miami Economic Region actually
improved its market position in several categories, including:
- transportation equipment
- electric and electronic equipment
- apparel and other textile products
- instruments and related products
- textile mill products; and
- food and kindred products.
-- In non -manufacturing, the Miami Economic Region improved
its competitive position nationally in the following sub -categories:
- transportation services (transportation sector);
- banking, and credit agencies other than banks (finance, insurance
and real estate sector); and
- selected services, encompassing health, legal and educational
services and membership organizations.
Dade County vis-a-vis the Miami Economic Region
-- Dade County's competitive position within the region declined
for all major industries.
-- Dade's competitive position in the region, however, improved
in three manufacturing categories consisting of:
- textile mill products
- rubber and miscellaneous plastics products; and
- furniture and fixtures.
-59-
Dade County's competitive position with respect to other
jurisdictions in the economic region also improved in certain non-
mafl ufacturing subsectors:
- water transportation related activities (transportation sector
- furniture and,home furnishing stores (retail trade sector);
- holding and other investment offices (finance, insurance and
real estate sector); and
- educational and miscellaneous services (services sector).
As a result of changes noted for Dade County and activities elsewhere
within the Economic Region vis-a-vis the nation at large, a number of
selected industries can provide useful candidate targets for city
economic development strategies. These categories, as mentioned pre-
viously, are examined with respect to the contributions
they can make to the city's economy and ways in which Miami can im-
prove its competitive position to capture a greater share of such
enterprises in Volume II of this report.
C. Southeastern Cities
In serving as a major regional hub, the Miami metropolitan area is
in many ways competitive with several other Florida and non -Florida regions.
Representing as they do alternative choices to industries seeking
new locations, cities in this group include:
Jacksonville, Florida
-- Tampa -St. Petersburg, Florida
-- Orlando, Florida
-- Atlanta, Georgia
-- New Orleans, Louisiana
-60-
On the strength of a comparative analysis of demographic and eco-
nomic characteristics for these areas, together with associated develop-
ment patterns, Miami's competitive position may be assessed. This analysis,
which is detailed in Section. III-B of Volume IV of this report, is high-
lighted below:
1. Demographic and Employment Characteristics. Major findings
with respect to analysis of demographic and employment data for Miami and
the five competitive cities are as follows:
Metropolitan Miami is second only to the 15-county Atlanta region
in total population. In contrast, it is approximately
equivalent to the Tampa -St. Petersburg area and has a
greater population base than any of the other three
regions noted. (pages III-C-8 to III-C-10)
With the exception of Tampa -St. Petersburg, the Miami area
accommodates the largest proportion of older (over age 65)
persons. (pages III-C-8 to III-C-10) Though generally considered
outside "traditional economic development" concerns, many of these
elderly persons are relocated, retired individuals who bring consi-
derable assets with them to their new homes.' Bank deposits,
investment in area housing, and market supports for
various. service industries and professions are among
the "economic'pluses" associated with transfers taking
place through such retirees.
Per capita income for metropolitan Miami exceeds that
of any of the other comparable area under examination.
In that respect, per capita income in Miami was 5
percent greater than that for Atlanta, the second
highest metropolitan area, and 21 percent more than
Tampa, the lowest rated of the five comparable
metropolitan areas. (pages III-C-8 to III=C10)
-While labor participation is higher in Miami than in any
of the cities except Atlanta, unemployment also is the
highest in comparison with each of these other communities.
(pages II-C-8 to IV-C-10).
-61-
Services and trade, the two principal industrial
sectors in the Miami econom , also feature prominently in
each of the other cities. (pages III-C-8 to III-C-10) Thus
it might be said that the nature of competition among these
five areas is keen since, in many respects, they may be seeking
not only organizations and enterprises that cater to the resident
population in this regard but also that may assume a larger
multi -state role within the South and Southeast.
For example, due to its major tourist attractions, Orlando
competes heavily with Miami in the area of hotels and other
lodging -places services, as well as in amusement and recreation
services. Tampa, home of Busch Gardens, is also competitive in
these areas.
With respect to business services, Atlanta and Jacksonville
are strong competitors and Orlando is becoming a contendor
as well.
And in the health services area, Atlanta, Tampa and, to
a lesser extent New Orleans,. are all competitive with Miami,
particularly with regard to hospital services.
-Manufacturing is more significant to Miami than it is to
any of the other areas with the exception of Atlanta. In'
light of recent trends, however, the importance of manu-
facturing continues to decline for each of these communities
with the notable exception of Orlando. (pages III-C-8 to
III-C- 10 and page III-C-12)
With respect to specific manufacturing categories, Atlanta
is most competitive in the areas of apparel and other textile
products and furniture and fixtures, and both Atlanta and
Tampa are competitive with respect to printing and publishing.
Within subsectors of these categories, however, sor.ie decree •
of specialization is evident among the competitive cities.
(pages III-C-52 to III-C-81)
-Measurements of interrelated and important "export cains"
in the manufacturing sector, as refiectea in value adaed,
show that Atlanta succeeded at twice the rate for Miami,
Tampa and New Orleans -- all of wnom were approximately
equal in that category for 1976. (page III-C-46)
With regard to putting in place new capacity for manu-
facturing during that same year, capital expenditures in
Miami exceeded those for Tampa and Orlando though remaining
somewhat below those for Atlanta.
-62-
-Of all metr000litan areas examined, Miami had the lowest
average production worker hourly wage, 53.92 as compared
to the higher rates of 55.51 and 55.36 for New Orleans
and Jacksonville, respectively. (page III-C-46)
These differentials represent important issues from an
economic standpoint in terms of both increasing Miami's
competitive manufacturing position and, equally important,
tracing "trade-offs" between providing opportunities for
lower skilled workers on the one hand and upgrading jobs
on the other. (page III-C-46)
-Of key importance with respect to economic development,
employment growth for Miami since 1974 has centered in
trade, services and government. In contrast, and
directly related to cyclical trends, large declines
have been registered in construction.
Growth trends for. the competitive cities have generally
paralleled those for Miami with the exception.of Tampa,
which also -counted sharp gains in finance, insurance and
real estate. Thus, incremental employment opportunities
for both cities may be influenced by the effectiveness of
prospective plans and programs to accommodate the needs
of this industry sector over the years ahead. (page III-C-12)
-In percent terms, employment increases for Miami were less
than those for the other cities. New Orleans was the
leader here with more than double the gains of Miami; 3.9
percent average annual gains as compared to 1.5 percent.
(page III-C-12)
2. Development Patterns. With respect to development patterns in each of
the cities, the following major conclusions can be drawn.
-Most cities examined are making serious attempts to
attract international trade and commerce activities.
Foreign trade zones exist in New Orleans and -Atlanta.
Phase I of Orlando's 200-acre trade zone should be
operational by September, 1979, and the City of
Jacksonville is preparing applications for development
of a zone there. Foreign banks have opened offices in
Atlanta, and the State of Georgia maintains trade
offices in Europe, South America and Japan. New Orleans
is making a serious effort to host the 1984 Worlds Fair
and at this time is the only city to have submitted
proposals and applications to attract this event.
-63-
Airport and travel facilities are being improved in all
the cities examined. New terminals are being constructed
or expanded at airports in Orlando, Atlanta, and
Jacksonville. Terminal expansion at New Orleans airport
was completed in 1976, and Tampa's "new -concept" airport
with landside and airside terminals opened in 1971.
Runways at all airports except New Orleans are being
extended to handle all types of passenger and cargo
planes. And customs facilities at Jacksonville, Orlando,
and Atlanta are under construction or are being enlarged
to handle increased international travel.
Moreover, the recent deregulation of the airline
industry is expected to lead to expanded service to
Europe, South and Central America from a variety of
cities. Currently, non-stop service to a large number
of foreign cities is available from Atlanta and Mew
Orleans: Tampa offers flights to Mexico and Canada
with seasonal service to Europe. The potential•for
direct international service to Tampa and especially
Orlando -- with major attractions and anew airport
-- is very high and will help these cities to continue
to mature as major tourist destinations.
- Port facilities in the various cities are generally
specialized by product or market type. Cargo handled
at the Miami Port consists largely of machinery and
other high -value manufactured products being shipped
to Latin America. Tampa Port shipments are comprised
primarily of phosphates: for delivery to Japan, Brazil,
India,' Pakistan and the Middle East. Jacksonville
handles the bulk of the automobile imports, and Port
Everglades handles .the ,pe'trol eum imports_ New .Weans,'
on the other hand, is the largest grain export port in
the world.
-Business taxes are higher in Miami than elsewhere in
Dace County or in the competitive cities. The property
rate is 33.086 mills in Miami, compared to 19.191 in
unincorporated Dade County. In other incorporated Dade
County locations, the tax rate ranges from 23.647 (Hialeah)
to 31.353 (Miami Beach).
-64-
Comparable millage rates in other Florida cities are
as follows:
- Jacksonville: 18.02
- Orlando (including Orange County): 23.76
- Tampa (including Hillsborough County): 27.00,
Outside of Florida, taxes are six to seven percent
lower in Atlanta than in Miami and 44 percent lower in
New Orleans, where there is also a 5-year exemption
for capital improvements. On the other hand, there is
no personal income tax in Florida and generally lower
rates of corporate incomes taxes in than in
Georgia and Louisiana.
-Land Costs. Industrial land is generally more expensive in Miami than
in outlying Dade locations, and such property is considerably more ex-
pensive in Dade County than in suburban portions of the various
competitive cities.
One of the problems encountered in Miami is that much of the
land which could be used for industrial development is zoned C-3,
a broad commercial zone which also allows higher value uses to be
built. The use of this zoning results in very high land values.
For expample, land suitable for warehouse or industrial use in
the area north of the Civic Center goes for around $87,000 per
acre, as does comparable property in Allapatah. Property south of
El Portal runs $130,000 per acre, and land west of Biscayne
north of the Port can go for as much as $650,000 per acre. In
comparison, prime industrial property in a high quality industrial
parkin the airport area, outside Miami, sells for roughly $130,000;
and at other locations alone the Palmetto and in Hialeah, prices
generally are in the $70,000 - $90,000 per acre range.
In comparison to the Miami area, ready -to -build industrial
land in the competitive cities is much less expensive. In the
Florida cities -- Jacksonville, Tampa and Orlando -- prime indust-
rial property sells for $30,000 - $50,000 an acre. In Atlanta, top
prices are $50,000, and in New Orleans, prime land goes for approxi-
mately $60,000 - $80,000 per acre.
-65-
-In each city examined, major urban and metropolitan area
development -projects are underway or planned. Projects
include various arrays of new office buildings, retail and
convention centers, hotels, rapid transit systems, and
airport additions and expansions. Orlando's major construction
projects and planned construction amounts to $2.7 billion, which
includes expansion at area attractions, development of a
foreign trade zone, airport expansion, housing projects and
intrastructural improvements. In Atlanta, nearly $4.6 billion
in new construction will include a $3 billion rapid transit
system, new office towers, $500 million in airport expansions
and improvements, major new hotels, and additional exhibition
centers. Projects of a similar nature are planned for New
Orleans and, to a somewhat smaller degree, for Jacksonville and
Tampa.
Among the cities examined, Orlando is the undisputed leader in
attracting conventions. Orlando attracts 2,250 conventions
annually compared to Miami's 210. In fact, Miami attracted
fewer conventions than any of the other cities in 1978. However,
Miami's conventions tend to be larger than those of Tampa and
Jacksonville.
Orlando's role as a convention center will be strengthened
by its new $25 million Civic Center, but Miami's new Knight
Center will enhance this city's competitive position in this
regard.
In the highly competitive economic development field it will be as
important to maintain an awareness of Miami's competitive position vis-a-
vis other metropolitan areas as it will be to provide effective programs
geared both to accommodating new industries and to meeting the requirements
of those presently within the area. The comparative data for each of the
five metropolitan areas highlighted above will provide useful information
in relation to maintaining an on -going information system to guide future
city efforts in that respect.

MAJOR FINDINGS
DATA CATALOGING AND ANALYSIS
As part of the Miami Economic Analysis and Development Strategy Study,
this document sets forth an Economic Data Identification, Cataloging and
Analysis.
The data cataloging effort has been oriented to and focused on the
needs of the City with respect to economic development goals in the context
of ar economic base evaluation and prospective Miami strategies and programs.
Specifically, the primary objectives of the data cataloging and analysis
were to:
(1) evaluate present City capabilities for determining
economic trends and patterns.
(2) establish a system for continued monitoring of City
economic directions and growth in the period ahead.
(3) provide a readily available data base for this effort
and subsequent economic analyses.
(4) identify an informational base for use by the Office
of Trade and Commerce Development in aiding prospec-
tive businesses seeking to locate or expand within
the City.
Major Findings and Conclusions
The principal finding in conjunction with this task is that there is
a significant lack of pertinent data for Miami and/or key city districts.
In virtually every area of analysis, disaggregated data are either non-
existent, incomplete, unreliable, obsolete or difficult to assemble. Of
particular importance, data for employment, labor force, and business acti-
vities in the City are virtually unavailable on a continuous (annual) basis
at present.
-1-
Periodic U.S. Census information, at times, can provide some city -
specific background. Publication of the 1977 Census of Business reports by
the end of this year, illustratively, and the forthcoming 1980 Census of
Population and Housing series (to be released in the early 1980's) will partially
ameliorate this situation. The information provided in these reports, how-
ever, will be dated (by two or more years) at the time of publication and
will provide only some of the essential data needed by the City.
In order to insure a more comprehensive and timely management information
system, OTCD will need to work with other agencies -- in the Citty and else-
where -- already collecting relevant indicators and arrange for disaggrega-
tion and retrievability of appropriate data, where possible.
In particular, the following potential data sources should be inves-
tigated4
(3)
Business licenses issued by the City of Miami Finance
Department (Treasury Division). The data are available
but are not now displayed or aggregated in usable form.
Land use information collected as part of the Urban
Information System of the City of Miami Planning Depart-
ment. Current year estimates of the data contained
in the City's 1975 Urban Information System are expected
shortly after the first of the year. While much of these
data will be useful, it may be possible to expand the
categories of information collected to render the system
more valuable to OTCD.
Employment and business information collected by the
State of Florida Department of Labor and Employment
Security. The State presently collects employment infor-
mation for the entire region. The Dade County Planning
Department is now attempting to geocode these data to
County sublevels. OTCD, together with the City Planning
Department, should coordinate with the county in these
efforts.
Presentation of Data Catalog and Analysis Results
The balance of this document contains a data catalog organized as
-2-
follows:
four.
1. Economic Data Catalog Matrix: The Economic Data Ca to i c;
Matrix is designed to facilitate the location of specific
data items. The catalog is divided into seven major
categories, covering:
A. Demographic Data
B. Employment and Labor Force Data
C. Human Resource Development and Training
D. Economic Indicators
E. Land Use and Real Estate Development Factors
F. Economic and Fiscal Data
G. Financial Resources for Business Development
Within each major category, there is a separate matrix for
' each sub -category.
To use the catalog matrix, reference should be initially
made to the Data Index to determine the page(s) dealing
with the subject matter. Then, the following information
can be taken from the matrix:
- document reference number ( column 1), keyed to the
Document Reference List (pp - ), which provides
the title and author of the referenced document;
- description of the data (column 2),which highlights key
characteristics;
- time period covered by the data (column 3); and
- geographic coverage of the information (columns
4-8).
The last column (column 9) indicates whether the data
source is recommended to OTCD for reference and planning
purposes.
2. Document Reference List: This list, which is organized
broadly by subject matter, gives the names and authors
of identified source materials and is keyed, by document
number, to both the Data Catalog Matrix and the Data
Catalog Evaluation Set.
3. Data Catalog Evaluation Set: These pages set forth the
results of analysis and evaluation of the data materials.
The set is organized by document number for easy reference.
An illustration of how to use the data catalog can be found on page
- 3-
USER INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE
ECONOMIC DATA CATALOG MATRIX
As an aid to the user of the Economic Data Catalog Matrix, a step-by-
step example of how to use the matrix is provided below. This example
demonstrates how to find the names of major apparel companies in Dade
County.
Step 1: Refer to the Data Index for the number of the page in the
Matrix dealing with Key Employers (By Industrial Sector). This
topic is listed under B. Employment and Labor Force Data
and is referenced to page 36 of the Matrix.
Step 2: Turn to page 36. On this page are listed eight sources
of information on key employers. The first one (referenced
as number 211) covers apparel firms in both Miami and Dade
County in 1979.
Step 3: To find the name and author of document number 211, refer
to the Document Reference List, pages 83 - 258.
Step 4: Document number 211 is listed on page 87 of the Document
Reference List as Eastern's Guide to the Apparel Industry,
published by Florida Fashion Finders, Inc.
Step 5: To obtain evaluative information on this document, refer to
the appropriate page, in the Data Catalog Evaluation Set.
This set is organized sequentially, by document number, and
the evalyation of document 211 appears of page 142.
