1992 Miami River Master Plan:
"The function of the Miami River as a "working waterfront' should be preserved. Scarce waterfront land
should be reserved, wherever possible, for use by businesses that are dependent on a waterfront location
or are essentially related to the maritime economy of the areas." (page 0.2).
"Goal: Preserve the working waterfront... More than one-third of the Miami River corridor is a [']working
waterfront['] of over 100 marine businesses." (page 1.1).
"In terms of formal marina activity, the Miami River is home to approximately 650 wet slips, of which over
500 are commercial in nature... The commercial wet slips are divided almost equally between facilities
which provide boat repair services and those which serve exclusively as marinas. On the river there are
essentially two types of boat repair establishments. First, there are the larger integrated facilities like
Richard Bertram and Allied Marine which provide sales, repair and storage services for yachts. These
larger facilities provide about 160 jobs. Secondly, there are the smaller and intermediate -sized boatyards
which provide about 140 jobs." (page 1.8).
While there are a number of boat repair facilities that have a growing business, many of the marinas and
small boatyards (under 10 employees) on the Miami River have experienced a contraction in business
activity since 1995.... One factor affecting this decline has been the rapid expansion of competing
facilities in Broward County." (page 1.8).

AN ECONOMIC ANALYSIS OF THE MIAMI RIVER INDUSTRY. Florida Atlantic University (April
2008).
"Hazen and Sawyer estimated the impact of the Miami River shipping industry on Miami -Dade County
production in 2004 at $682.5 million, creating 6,106 jobs, with earnings of $338.9 million. These
numbers show that the industry is a significant part of the county's economy." (page 3).
"A survey of Miami River businesses conducted for the Miami River City Commission reported in Lipner,
Miami River Economic Study 2000, concluded that the non -shipping industry had annual sales about
equal to the sales of the shipping industry." (page 26).
"Once the new facility is completed, Merrill -Stevens anticipate ongoing revenues of $90 million
annually, with 40 percent of the activities focused on the repair of mega yachts." (page 6).
"There are additional impacts resulting from the reduced transportation costs provided by the Port [of
Miami River] to Miami -Dade exporters and the location of additional businesses in the county to take
advantage of the port [or Miami River]. These impacts result in increased production in the county,
increased earnings by Miami -Dade households and increased taxes." (page 21).
"Although it might be possible to shift some of the shipping from the Miami River to the Port of Miami or
Port Everglades, such a shift is unlikely because the ports are short of capacity and would give
preferential berthing to larger vessels." (page 24)
It is noteworthy that average earnings per job exceed $60,000 — the jobs on the Miami River provide
wages considerably above the county average. (page 24).
