CITY OF AVENTURA OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER MEMORANDUM TO: City Commission DATE: February 22,2007 FROM: Eric M. Soroka, ICMA-CM, Cit SUBJECT: Budget Amendment to Adopt Police Department Reorganization Plan March 13, 2007 City Commission Meeting Agenda Item H RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Commission approve the attached Budget Amendment Resolution which adopts the Police Department Reorganization Plan. BACKGROUND As you are aware, when Chief Steinberg was recently promoted, it created a vacancy in the Deputy Police Chief position. This also provided the opportunity to re-evaluate the organization structure of the Police Department to address future needs. The main priority of this process was to develop a middle management command structure that would groom the future leaders of the Department and provide internal career advancement opportunities. In light of the above, Chief Steinberg has recommended the following changes to the Police Department's Organization Plan: 1. Eliminate the position of Deputy Chief. The three (3) Captain positions and Commander position would report directly to the Police Chief. 2. Reclassify two Sergeant positions to Lieutenants. This will provide a Lieutenant as the third line supervisor in the three largest police service divisions. 3. Reclassify three Police Officer positions to Sergeants. One each would be added to Uniform Services and Investigative Services Divisions. Memo to City Commission February 22,2007 Page 2 A copy of the Organization Chart is attached hereto. The recommendation would have a positive impact on the budget that would result in a cost savings which is planned to be utilized to fund additional Police Officer positions in next fiscal year's budget. In a traditional organization structure sense, the proposed changes continue to provide for unified command, reasonable span of control and accountability within the organization. One area that has been neglected in many police departments is the development of supervisory and managerial personnel. Chief Steve Steinberg should be commended for his recommendation to reorganize the Department and provide for a Department to meet the demands of the future.

BACKGROUND OWNER OF PROPERTY NAME OF APPLICANT LOCATION OF PROPERTY City of Aventura City of Aventura 3301 NE 213 Street (See Exhibit #1 Location Map and Exhibit #2 for Park Layout Plan) .........." SIZE OF PROPERTY 7.0 acres DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLICATION Pursuant to a purchase and sale agreement approved by the City Commission in May of 2006, the City has acquired title to a 7.0 acre piece of land on the north side of NE 213 Street from Gulfstream Park Racing Association. The deed to the City of Aventura was recorded on November 22, 2006 in Official Records Book 25122, Pages 4596 to 4602 of the Public Records of Miami Dade County. The City is proceeding with construction of the park and it is now in order to change the land use designation of the property to permit park use. The request is to change the current land use designation from Business and Office to Parks and Recreation. An application to amend the Official Zoning Map for this parcel from MO, Medical Office District, to ROS, Recreation Open Space District is being presently concurrently with this application. ANAL YSIS Future Land Use Designation Subject Property: Properties to the North: Properties to the South: Properties to the East: Properties to the West: Zoning Subject Property: Properties to the North: Properties to the South: Properties to the East: Properties to the West: Existing Land Use Subject property: Properties to the North: Properties to the South: Properties to the East: Properties to the West: Business and Office City of Hallandale Beach Medium-High Density Residential Medium Density Residential Business and Office MO, Medical Office District City of Hallandale Beach RS2, Residential Single Family District and eNS, Conservation District ROS, Recreational Open Space MO, Medical Office District vacant horseracing track residential City park vacant Access - Access to the parcel is from NE 213 Street, a public right-of-way. Conformity to City Comprehensive Plan - The amendment is consistent with the goals, objectives and policies of the City's Comprehensive Plan. More specifically, the proposal is consistent with the following policies in the Future Land Use and Parks and Recreation elements of the Plan: 2 Future Land Use Element '- Policy 1.2, Parks and Recreation Land Use The Future Land Use Map indicates general recommended location of future parks within the City, The location of the new Waterways Park is shown on the Future Land Use Map as "proposed park". The establishment of this park therefore fulfills the Future Land Use Map recommendation for park location. Parks and Recreation Element Policy 4. 1, Parks Level of Service Standard The City has adopted a level of service requiring 2.75 acres of net useable park land per 1,000 residents, implemented by the concurrency management system. The estimated current population for the City of Aventura based on the latest application for comprehensive plan amendment is 29,638. The amount of park and recreation land required by the above park standard is 81.5 acres. The existing available park and recreation land, using the calculations provided in the Level of Service Standards and including the park area subject of this amendment, is 114.95 acres. Therefore, the City is exceeding the level of service standard for provision of parkland. ,- "~~. 3 BROWARD COUNT), .--.-.-.-- .6, DADE COUNTY '. '. '. '. , . , . , . '. ,. , . , . ,. '.

A review of thousands of pages of2006 lobbyist reports shows some startling trends: . Cities and counties. eager to bring home stale money ior roads, sewers and parks, spent more than $6.3 million on outside pro{es- sionallobbyists. That amount does not include the salaries spent on city and county employees who also lobby Ihe Legislature. Miami-Dade County was among the biggest spenders, paying at least $439,000 to professional lobbyists. e Florida's burgeoning gambling industry spent more than $2 mHIioD on profes- sional lobbyists, A top spender: Hollywood Grey- hound Track, which spent al least $410,000. Last year,gam- ing lobbyists had to fend off bills that would have charged slots facilities a new fee (or impacted Broward communi. ties, forced them to divide up purse profits and revised their Q CITY OF AVENTURA NOTICE OF AMENDMENT OF COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND NOTICE OF AMENDMENT TO OFFICIAL ZONING MAP PublIc Notice ... herMJy utv.., tt'llIt tM Qty of A.......tur.!.. ~ CommIuIort 'Nil n..t: In a public::: h4l8l1ng on~, MIlI'c~ =7":'~, to consIcMr the 1oIowtng CMdNncM on FL"""l.'!t licensing fees. e Among individual com- panies, none spent more than BellSouth, the state's largest phone company. It shelled out at least $1.1 million to lobby legislators in an unsuccessful push for a bill to help it crack into the cable-television busi- ness. The legislation is back again this year and the cable and phone industries are gearing up for another battle. "You would be a fool to say that the people who are spending this money aren't seeing something in return," said Common Cause of Flor- ida Executive Director Ben Wilcox, who called the amount spent in Florida "stag- gering." Many lobbyists opposed the new disclosure require. ments and unsuccessfully fought the law in federal COUTt. A second lawsuit is now pending in Leon County. Under the law, lobbyists do nol have to reveal exact amounls, instead reporting a range of lheir earnings. In conducting its review, The Miami Herald rounded down to the lowest amount listed by each company. At the low end, legislative lobbyists MiamiHerdld.com I THE MIAMI HERALD THE TOP LOBBYISTS AND CLIENTS The Miami Herald reviewed a year's worth of lobbyist com- pensation reports. Here's a look at the top lobbyists by amounts Paid and theIr top c11ef'lts. Amounts listed on reports were In ranges, Tile Herald rounded down to the lowest amount. TOP LOBBYING FIRMS .

The review, along with a look at lawmakers' decisions last yeaT, makes clear that companies and others who spend lavishly on lobbyists often get a return on their investment. A few examples: e Kitson & Partners, a West Palm Beach real.estate firm, spent at least $110,000 to lobby the Legislature last year. Lawmakers spent $310 million to buy more than 70,000 acres of Babcock Ranch in Southwest Plorida - and as part of the deal, Kit- son wiU get to build homes on the remaining 17,000 acres, .

BEN WILCOX, C__CIIMof FIorN!.l +uwtllNl ~lndDl' owner, spent at least $110,000 on professional lobbyists. ln September, a panel of legisla- lors approved 0. "unique" deal 10 purchase $46 million worth of land from the company for current and (uture road pro- jects, e Val-Pak Direct Market- ing Systems of Largo spent at least $40,000 hiring lobbyists, including Guy Spearman of Brevard County. Lawmakers approved a measure that will exempt mail advertising {rom the state's sales tues, a move expected to cost the state an estimated $700,000. The lobbyist reports also show that the top money~get- lers aTe usually tbe lobbyists with long~running ties to tbe Republican Party. The top fIrms include: e Smith & Ballard, named after former Attorney General Jim Smith and hill son-in-law, Brian Ballard, who worked for Republican Gov. Bob Marti- nez and was a top fundraiser for Gov, Charlie crist. . Southern Strategy Group, a firm led by Paul Bradshaw, a friend of former Gov. Jeb Bush who is married to Bush's first chief of staff. The rum's roster of lobbyists also includes former House Speaker John Thrasher and former top Bush aide David Rancourt. . Dutko Poole McKinley, whose roster of lobbyists dur- ing 2006 included former Republican Party of Florida Chairman Van Poole and (or- mer party Executive Director Jamie Wilson. . Johnson & Blanton, named after Jon Johnson and Travis Blanton. both of whom have worked for the Republi- can Party. Blanton was also a top aide in the Agency for Health Care Administration under Gov. Bush. Another top Moneymaker: high-powered A ventura lob- byist Ron Book, once an aide to former Gov, Bob Graham, a Democrat. Book was a strong Crist backer, Book said the amounts clients spend on lob- bying depend on whether industries fight each other, the amount of money in the state budget - and simple paranoia. "I think it depends on how important tbe stakes are to you," said Book. "Tbere are periods of time they think they don't need representa- tion. But the old saying is that nobody's life and liberty and property is safe when the leg- islature is in session."
