Hannon The mission of the Wynwood Business Improvement District is to builu upon vvynwood's role as a globally -recognized center for art and culture with visibly clean and safe streets that facilitate an improved pedestrian experience through a vibrant and colorful physical space. BUSINESS IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT BIDs are economic development organizations that deliver public services to specific neighborhoods to supplement the bundle of public services provided by the government. They are formed with the active participation of property owners within a defined geographic area. For the past ten years, property owners and businesses have transformed Wynwood into a viable pedestrian walking district. It has converged art, fashion and technology to create a hub that is recognized on a global scale. Developers, artists and community members have worked together to create the Wynwood of today. Now it's time to form a more cohesive vision to create the Wynwood of tomorrow, together with the economic resources to make that vision a reality. That vision starts with the establishment of a Business Improvement District (BID). Economist magazine describes BIDs as potentially "the best hope for getting parts of America's cash -strapped cities working again." In a time when municipal governments, like the City of Miami, are confronting complex problems with insufficient finances, BIDs give power to property owners to identify a district's needs and actively address those needs with a pool of financial resources. More than 1,200 BIDs now exist in North America — serving cities small, medium and large. Locally, Coconut Grove and Coral Gables have formed and implemented successful BIDs. For Wynwood, this means fixing some of the pressing issues that have hindered its progress, including security, sanitation and lighting. The BID, representing a 47-block area, will provide a unified force to advocate on behalf of the neighborhood to help Wynwood reach its full potential. A potential that research has shown will positively affect property owners, residents and community members. BIDs HAVE A SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON COMMERCIAL PROPERTY VALUES In a New York City study, the value of commercial property within a BID increased by about 15 percentage points more on average than comparable properties in the same neighborhood but outside the BID's boundaries.

This will include such standard services as mechanical truck sweeping, hand sweeping of sidewalks and gutters, "graffiti busters", and police coverage. • On a routine basis, the Wynwood BID will provide to the City Public Works Deptartment photos and addresses of damaged sidewalks in need of repair. • The Wynwood BID will work with the City Capital Improvements Department to implement the next generation of sidewalks to increase Wynwood's walkability. • The Wynwood BID will work with the City of Miami to explore programs and initiatives to enhance the landscaping of the District to get beyond the "bare concrete look" of the area. • The Wynwood BID will advocate for the purchase and installation of human scale street lamps in Wynwood — the City currently does it for other commercial districts. The tall cobra lamps currently in place in Wynwood were originally designed for highway usage, and may have been serviceable for a warehouse district. They are absolutely the wrong lighting for a pedestrian district. • The Wynwood BID will monitor the street lamps which are not working and report outages to the appropriate departments — City, FPL, or County — for proper replacement of bulbs. • The BID will advocate for transportation solutions, including bike lanes, bike racks, car sharing, transit stops, and more visible signage.

The City has not thoroughly reassessed the area so it is still seen as a warehouse district in relation to City services provided. These limited services no longer make sense for this thriving neighborhood. The BID will resolve issues by effectively communicating as a single voice on behalf of Wynwood to the City and Miami -Dade County. The BID will also undertake enhancements and improvements that the City cannot dedicate time, money and effort to, including: SECURITY The district is becoming increasingly more pedestrian, with a growing need for more bicycle and walking -based protection. The Wynwood BID will supplement City provided services so that the district will be safer, which will encourage business growth and increase the number of visitors to the area. V BIDs CAN REDUCE CRIME The incidence of violent crimes between 1994 and 2005 and the implementation of 30 BIDs in Los Angeles neighborhoods was analyzed. The findings: implementation of a BID was associated with a 12% reduction in the incidence of robbery and an 8% reduction in the total incidence of violent crimes. From The effect of business improvement districts on the incidence of violent crimes" by John MacDonald, Daniela Golinelli, Robert J Stokes, Ricky Bluthenthal • When the Coconut Grove BID instituted a targeted supplemental security strategy, it immediately became the only commercial district in the City of Miami with a reduced crime rate, recognized as one of the 30 safest commercial areas in America.

Hannon 5 ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• SANITATION The Wynwood BID will extensively supplement sanitation services in the district. Wynwood needs a strong and experienced sanitation team. Streets and sidewalks in Wynwood are dirty and largely unaddressed by the City. Some portions of the sidewalks are in desperate need of repair. Pressure cleaning will also be a priority for the district. The Wynwood BID will further request that the City provide 12 trash receptacles for NW 2 Avenue, and request that the City collect the trash on a daily basis from this commercial area just as it does in other areas of the City. In exchange for an agreement with the City that trash will be collected daily, the BID will purchase and put in place an additional 24 trash receptacles in its first year. ONE MAN'S TRASH IS ANOTHER MAN'S TREASURE In Wynwood, trash cans won't be just functional. They can be a canvas for creativity. The BID will propose a collection of artist -designed cans that fit into the colorful streetscape.

Hannon • • •• • •• • • • • • • • • • • SEE THE LIGHT LIGHTING In order to improve sidewalk visibility at night, while illuminating the vibrant art that defines the community, The Wynwood BID will initiate a program to raise funds for increased lighting to be placed on the sides of Wynwood's buildings. This will further expand Wynwood's reach as a 24-hour-per-day living, outdoor musuem. Grant possibilities will be explored at the federal level to determine the possibility of using solar energy for this purpose. The BID will partially fund the property owner's costs of installing down lighting on the sides of their buildings. Additionally, between 30-50% of the cobra street lamps in Wynwood are currently not functioning. Under the current plan, street lamps are not repaired until they are reported to the correct office. The Wynwood BID staff will work to create a more efficient and continuous reporting program to minimize the number of street lamps in disrepair. • Improved lighting deters potential offenders by increasing the risk that they will be seen or recognized when committing crimes. • Improved lighting can encourage more people to walk at night, which would increase informal surveillance.

Parking should focus on convenience and service to customers and the generated revenue should, as allowed by State statute, provide for improvements to the Wynwood district. PLANNING & ZONING Through either a special area plan initiative or a coordinated legislative effort, the Wynwood BID will invest funds into an effort to correct those oversights in the Miami 21 zoning code which stunt and slow appropriate mixed -use development in the Wynwood district, including restrictions on residential and hospitality uses, as well as overly burdensome parking requirements, SIGNAGE In concert with the Wynwood Arts District Association, the Wynwood BID will develop, install, and maintain Wynwood-style signage that clearly defines the art district's boundaries. The BID will also work to develop and install pedestrian signage that directs people to Wynwood attractions and enables visitors to navigate the district. EVENTS In discussion with the galleries and commercial businesses in the district, The BID will partner with the Wynwood Arts District Association and use funds to host, develop, and nurture new events that will both appeal to residents and draw visitors to the area. It will further support street activities in an attempt to reinvigorate the pedestrian shopping and dining atmosphere. ARTS The BID will seek to facilitate and organize the outdoor murals and foster cooperation between the district's respected galleries and artists. At the heart of this effort, in coordination and leadership, will be the establishment of an Art Curator, as a BID paid staff member. The BID will make the neighborhood an outdoor museum, curated, thorough, and accessible with a goal of making the excitement of Art Basel and Second Saturday a greater part of everyday life in Wynwood. ACTIVITIES Through partnership with the Wynwood Arts District Association, the Wynwood BID will seek to secure private sector and foundation grants deemed appropriate for expanded placemaking activities. 8 • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Submitted into the public record in connection with item PH.5 on 07/25/13 Todd B.

In the event of an unsuccessful vote to expand the Wynwood BID, the original • BID will not be dissolved; it will remain in effect for the duration of its 10 year term. • • • In each year of its existence, the BID will undertake a "baseline of services" review in cooperation • with the City of Miami's City Manager. This will allow the BID to monitor City provided services • and ensure that these services are not being reduced as a result of the supplemental services being provided by the BID. During the first two years of its existence, the BID will conduct a • "baseline of services" analysis every six months to give the City the opportunity to reevaluate • Wynwood as an evolving pedestrian district that merits enhanced City services. • 12 • ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• BID GOVERNANCE • In the two months after the June 4 in -person election date, property owners in the Wynwood BID will have the right to nominate themselves or another property owner to sit on the Wynwood BID Board. All nominations will be submitted to the affected property owners of Wynwood for a vote, with one vote per property ownership entity regardless of the number of folios owned. • The Wynwood BID and the Wynwood Arts District Association, as the funding conduit for the BID formation effort, will sign a Memorandum of Understanding with the City of Miami's City Clerk's office so the proper notices, advertisements, affidavits and services can be provided to guarantee the integrity of the BID election. • There will be five voting members of the Wynwood BID Board. The top five vote getters will be seated as members of the BID Board on October 1, 2013. The terms will be staggered. In the first year of the BID Board's existence, the staggered term lengths of the directors will be determined by a blind draw conducted at the first Board meeting. The terms of the five directors will be: Director A, a term of one year; Director B, a term of one year; Director C, a term of two years; Director D, a term of two years; Director E, a term of two years. • All subsequent terms will be two years. • A director may serve a maximum of three two-year terms in the first ten years of the BID. Directors A and B in the above first -year terms may, if elected, serve a maximum of seven years in the first ten year period of the BID. New elections will be held in the month of September each year. • The Board will establish such committees as it deems necessary, and will determine the qualifications of those who sit on the committees. • The Board will have the power and responsibility to write bylaws. • All Board members must be paid up and current in terms of the BID assessments on their properties. • The BID Board will strictly observe the requirements and guidelines of the Sunshine Laws. • The BID Board will have fiduciary responsibility for the Wynwood BID. • The BID Board will comply with the City of Miami's procurement guidelines. • All BID Board meetings will be publicly noticed. 13 •• • • • • • • • • • • ELIGIBILITY & VOTING A 50% plus one majority vote of affected property owners is required for BID approval.

BASE LEVEL OF CITY SERVICES A base level of City services is outlined to identify Wynwood's current state of affairs. It's a benchmark to identify what the district needs in addition to what is currently provided. It allows the BID to start conversations about what services should be added, expanded, or changed. Department of Solid Waste Services Clean Out and Empty Trash Receptacles. Once a day, seven days a week, Wynwood's trash receptacle is cleaned out. The 47-block Wynwood BID geographical area currently has only one trash receptacle. It is located on NW 29 Street. Street Sweeping with Broom and Bin. Once a week, on Mondays, Solid Waste provides 3.5 hours of hand cleaning of streets and gutters along NW 2 Avenue from NW 29 Street to NW 20 Street. This amounts to about 20 minutes per block of hand cleaning per week along NW 2 Avenue. • Street Sweeping with Broom and Bin. Once a week, on Mondays, Solid Waste provides 3.5 hours of hand cleaning of streets and gutters along North Miami Avenue from NW 29 Street to • NW 20 Street. This amounts to about 20 minutes of hand cleaning of streets and gutters per • week on each block along North Miami Ave. • • Street Sweeping by Truck. Once a week, on Wednesdays between 10 p.m. — 5 a.m., the truck sweeps four -block lengths on each of the following streets from NW 5 Street to NW 2 Street: • • NW 25 Street; • NW 26 Street; • NW 27 Street; • NW 28 Street; • NW 29 Street. • Truck Cleaning.

Todd B. Hannon • 23 • ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• City of Miami Police Department The City of Miami Police Department deploys police in the Wynwood BID area as part of a much larger geographical area consisting of 192 city blocks —roughly four times as big as the projected Wynwood BID area, running from 1-95 east to the waterfront in Edgewater, from NW 36 Street to NW 20 Street. The information provided below by the police is for its larger police coverage area, not for the BID area. The strategy divides the much larger 192-block area described above (which includes the Wynwood BID) into five zones. These zones are "fluid" so that officers can easily move from one zone to another in response to ongoing criminal activity. The police strategy is to respond quickly and effectively to crimes in progress. Instead of saying that Wynwood has a specific police "presence" at any specific hour, they say that the Wynwood BID area has 24-hour police "coverage," in which police can respond to crimes as they occur in the BID area. Number of Patrol Officers Assigned to the Larger Area The MPD says that there are "four or five patrol officers" assigned to the larger area both day and night. Number of Beat Officers Assigned to the Larger Area According to the MPD, a "beat officer" is always deployed with a police vehicle, but in a traditional sense (as is the case in other commercial communities in Miami) the MPD often assigns beat officers to "walk a specific beat" or "bike a patrol route." The police indicate that there are three beat officers in the larger area. One is located in a vehicle on North Bayshore Drive — outside the BID area. Additionally, there is one patrolling full-time on NW 5 Avenue — also outside the BID area. The third beat officer is assigned to the five -zone area and spends a significant amount of time in the larger Wynwood area (this includes both Midtown Miami and the large residential area north from NW 29 Street to NW 36 Street).The MPD has stated that these officers "can [utilize] a bike [when patrolling]," but they also need to have immediate access to their police vehicle so that they can respond to crimes in other zones. Number of Neighborhood Resource Officers There are two Neighborhood Resource Officers (NRO) located in the five zone, 192 block area. They each work a total of 40 hours, or four ten-hour days per week. They are assigned to the larger area, not specifically to the BID area so it is not possible to determine how much time they physically spend in the Wynwood BID area from week to week. These two NRO officers are sometimes pressed into "patrol officer" duty by responding to crimes in progress. Summary of Police Activity Due to the constant movement in responding to crimes throughout the larger area, the police presence in Wynwood is understaffed and stretched thin. Their strategy of dividing the larger area into five zones is very efficient as a response -based effort, however this strategy is primarily designed to catch criminals rather than to prevent crimes and is ineffective in bolstering the public's perception of safety in Wynwood. 24 ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• City of Miami Neighborhood Enhancement Team As a direct point of contact between the citizens of Wynwood and City of Miami, NET is extremely valuable to Wynwood. Presently, NET provides the following services designed to improve the quality of life for those who live, visit, and conduct business in Wynwood: Neighborhood Service Workers On a weekly basis, The NET office provides two Neighborhood Service Workers (NSWs) at 20 hours each for a weekly total of 40 hours spent "cleaning up Wynwood." This includes the collection and disposal of boxes, bottles, cans, and any other street litter. Graffiti Busters On a weekly basis, the graffiti busters work in the geographic Wynwood BID area 20 hours per week undertaking several roles to remove unwanted graffiti tags. When provided with the correct color paint by the property owner or tenant occupier and with permission, they also over -paint unwanted tags on the sides of buildings. For Wynwood events, they coordinate with the police and Code Enforcement to assist with the apprehension of nuisance taggers. The graffiti busters also remove thousands of stickers pasted up in Wynwood. Second Saturday Wynwood Art Walk On a monthly basis, The NET office provides substantial assistance to the Wynwood Art Walk. In the time leading up to the Second Saturday event, the area NET Administrator spends 8-12 hours each month coordinating with various City departments (including the MPD and Solid Waste Department) that play supporting roles in the event's success. Additionally, the NET Administrator works with the NET office in Allapattah to divert NET vehicles, equipment, and NSWs to assist Wynwood with clean-up for the evening. Art Basel Support On an annual basis, in the months of November and December, the NET office spends about 100 hours preparing for Art Basel. In the week after Art Basel, the NET office spends 50 hours cleaning the streets of Wynwood and removing illegal signs from the neighborhood.
