RE: Interlocal Agreement Renewal ASSISTANT C:"UFF
Dear Chief Timoney: ADMINISTRATION DIV
The City of Miami (City) and Miami -Dade County (County) over the past ten years has jointly participated in
the enforcement of for -hire transportation regulations through the signing of an Interlocal Agreement. That
Agreement expired on June 21, 2009, therefore, to continue this venture between the City and the County a
renewal agreement is enclosed for your review.
On June 21, 2006, the City and the County entered into this Interlocal Agreement which authorized the City
to enforce specific sections and articles of Chapter 4 and 31 of the Code of Miami -Dade County (Code).
Historically, the two municipalities have had this joint agreement in place since 1998.
County staff prepared a new Interlocal Agreement under the same terms and conditions as previous others,
for a one-year term, with a two (2) year automatic renewal clause unless otherwise notified. The Agreement
authorizes the City to continue to enforce for -hire chauffeur regulations. Exhibit A outlines the various
provisions of the County Code relating to for -hire transportation, inclusive of Chapter 31 which encompasses
taxicabs, limousines, passenger motor carriers and special transportation service transportation.
Additionally, Exhibit A includes Article III, Chapter 4 of the Code relating to non -emergency vehicles and
Section 30-371-372 pertaining to private school buses.
Upon the City's concurrence, please return four (4) executed copies of the attached Interlocal Agreement to
this office. The County Manager will provide his signature and a fully executed document will be forwarded
to the City for their records. County staff will continue coordination with the City of Miami's Police
Department.
Should you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact this office at 305 375-5952.
We appreciate the assistance the City has provided us throughout the years and look forward to continued
service in this area of enforcement.
Sincerely,
/ Cathy Grimes Pe'
