Commission Meeting Date: 01/26/2017 Sponsored By:
District Impacted: District 2
Type: Resolution
Subject: Execute MOU - National Park Service
Purpose of Item:
A Resolution of the Miami City Commission, with an attachment, authorizing the City
Manager to execute the attached Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU"), between the
City of Miami ("City") and United States Department of the Interior, National Park
Service ("NPS"), acting through the Superintendent of Biscayne National Park (the
"Park"), for a Park -authorized concessioner, who will pay the City the approved
commercial dockage rate, in addition to ticket surcharge fees, to operate boat tour
services from Dinner Key Marina ("Marina") to the Park. The NPS has determined that
certain visitor services are necessary and appropriate for the public's use and
enjoyment of the Park and commercial boat tours should be provided under a
competitively bid ten (10) year concession contract. The Park has determined the
Marina is an ideal launch site to effectuate this purpose. The City, as owner and
administrator of the Marina, desires to support the Park's goals. The City has
committed to license dock space and amenities to the concessioner. The attached
MOU does not confer any rights to the NPS nor the Park. The MOU outlines the
framework of the NPS' solicitation of the concessioner, as well as the Revocable
License Agreement which the City will, eventually, draft to memorialize the terms with
the concessioner.
Background Information:
The City of Miami ("City") owns the property located at 3400 Pan American Drive,
Miami, Florida 33133, also known as "Dinner Key Marina" ("Marina"). The National Park
Service ("NPS") operates Biscayne National Park ("Park") and desires to enhance the
visitor experience, increase Park visitation, and facilitate access to the northern end of
the Park. The Park has determined that a tour boat concessioner, operating from the
Marina, is the best way to accomplish these goals. The City, as owner and
administrator of the Marina, wishes to support the Park's goals and facilitate the desired
expansion of visitor services for Miami -area residents and visitors needing ready access
to the Park. The attached Memorandum of Understanding outlines the framework of the
City's cooperation with the NPS, to wit entering into a Revocable License Agreement,
with the NPS' eventual concessioner, for the approved commercial dockage rate plus a
ticket surcharge fee. This MOU does not transfer any interest in the Marina; does not
confer a right to use the Marina; and, does not convey or transfer any right to exclude
the City from the Marina.
