RE: 1997/98 Budget Message
Members of the City Council:
In accordance with Article IV, Section 4.05 of the Charter of the City of Aventura, I hereby
submit the proposed Operating and Capital Budget for all funds for the fiscal year
beginning October 1, 1997, for your review and consideration. This budget document
represents the second entire fiscal year for the new City of Aventura. The City was
incorporated in November of 1995. The first complete fiscal year budget adopted by the
City Council was for the period of October 1, 1996 to September 30, 1997. This document
also represents the single most important report presented to the City Council. It is primarily
intended to establish an action, operation, and financial plan for the delivery of City
services. This budget continues to build upon the foundation for the implementation of the
City's government structure and services. Importantly, it also serves as an aid to the
residents in providing a better understanding of the City's operating and fiscal programs.
This budget document continues to expand upon the framework created last year to provide
quality municipal services that our residents deserve and expect to fulfill the dream of
creating this great City. This government promotes and supports a high quality of life for its
citizens, businesses and visitors.
Budget Format
A single budget document, which includes all City Funds and service programs, has been
prepared to provide a comprehensive overview of all City services and financial framework
for the understanding of the public.
The following sections are contained within the budget document:

Stormwater Utility Fund
The budget is a performance based plan that links goals and objectives with the
financial resources necessary to achieve them. In order to ensure that goals and
objectives established in ;.he budget planning process are translated into results, the
resources allocation process is tied to performance. This year's budget document
contains expanded performance/workload indicators to facilitate this process. Every
effort was made to provide a budget document that can be fully reviewed and justified
to the City Council and residents. The preparation of the budget document marks a
continued commitment to a planned and professional process of developing a budget
that will address both current and future issues facing the City, providing adequate
service levels and the necessary justification to support all expenditure requests.
1997198 Bud~let Priorities/Goals
The following represents the pre-established priorities and goals that provided a framework
for the preparation of the 1997/98 Budget Plan. In many areas the budget contains
resources to address and accomplish the pre-established priorities and goals.
Expand Police Department services in order to implement community policing, madne patrol,
canine unit and tactical squad.
Prepare Comprehensive Plan and initiate the process for the preparation of the Land
Development Code.
Develop Citywide Shuttle Bus Service to link residential areas with commercial and retail
establishmer~s.
Continue to implement and support the Police and central computer information management
systems to utilize the latest technology.
Implement and fund the first year of the City's 5 Year Capital Improvement Program.
Begin construction on Aventura Founders Park.
Design and bid the Govemment CentedPolice Station and Cultural Center project.
Begin projects associated with the Citywide Beautification Program.
Foster community pdde and involvement through spo~el events, recreation programs, citizen
surveys and newsletters.
· increase public awareness of the City's vadous programs, facilities and services.
Explore alternatives to address the traffic congestion problems.
Action Plan
The residents of the City deserve quality municipal services provided in a productive
and efficient manner at the lowest possible cost. They also deserve planning and
proper justification when a budget is proposed. I believe the budget contained within
does all of this. The preparation of the 1997/98 budget document marks a historical
event in the City's short history. The implementation of the first year of the City's
Capital Improvement Program to address the necessary overall improvements long
neglected by the County will begin. This process represents a commitment by the
community toward the achievement and maintenance of a desirable high quality of life.
Special emphasis was also placed on expanding police services to the community. The
budget emphasizes a professional and conservative fiscal approach. A great deal of
progress has been made to establish the foundation and invent the government
structure upon which to build in the future.
Summary of All Budc~etarv Funds
The total proposed budget for 1997/98, including all funds, capital outlay and debt
service, is $25,778,012. This is a 2.6% increase compared to the prior year. Operating
expenditures total $8,482,195. Capital Outlay expenditures total $16,395,817 and Debt

GENERAL FUND
The General Fund is used to account for resources and expenditures that are available
for the general operations of city government functions.
Revenues
The revenues, available for allocation in the 1997/98 Fiscal Year General Fund Budget,
including inter-fund transfers, are anticipated to be $15,581,896. This is an increase of
$1,602,602 or 11.5% compared to last year. The increase is primarily associated with
acquiring new revenues associated with FPL franchise fees and growth in residential
and commercial construction currently experienced in the City.
Locally Levied Taxes - The amount anticipated for ad valorem taxes includes no
increase and again adopts the same Unincorporated Municipal Services Area (UMSA)
rate as adopted by the County for the 1995/96 fiscal year. This represents the third
year without an increase. The ad valorem millage levy for fiscal year 1997/98, will be
2.2270. This will generate $5,860,000 and will be the lowest municipal tax rate in the
County. The City experienced a 6.9% increase in the taxable assessed property
values. The budget includes $500,000 from FPL franchise fees based on the Interlocal
Agreement with the County. Anticipated franchise fees and utility taxes make up the
remainder of this category and are based on growth in the number of residential and
commercial establishments located in the City.
Licenses and Permits - The amounts for this revenue category are projected to be
$1,200,000. City Occupational Licenses and building permits are the major sources of
V
revenue. The amount is anticipated to be $70,000 less than last year due to a projected
decrease in building permit activity.
Inter,qovernmental Revenues - Total revenues for this category are projected to
increase by $121,000 compared to the amount budgeted for 1996/97. The 12%
increase is related to projected increases in Sales Tax revenue.
Charges For Services - Revenues relating to charges for services are anticipated to be
$35,000 more than the prior year's budget. This is primarily due to revenue sources
from police details and recreation/cultural events being budgeted for the first time.
Fines and Forfeitures - Total revenues projected for 1997/98 are $39,000. Revenues
from County court fines and code violations are included in this category.
Miscellaneous Revenues - Projected revenues are anticipated to be $169,000 higher
than the amount budgeted for the prior fiscal year due to higher than anticipated
interest earnings.
Fund Balance - This represents under estimates of available resources, and unspent
appropriations from the 1996/97 budget. This amount is anticipated to be $2,900,000.
Non-Revenues - This represents transfers from the Street Maintenance Fund and
Stormwater Utility Fund to the General Fund.

Personal Services
Personal Services expenditures for all employees have been budgeted to reflect a 3%
cost of living adjustment and a performance/bonus amount that averages to 3% per
employee. The performance/bonus program is based on a formal evaluation of each
employee and rewards accomplishments and performance rather than tenure. The total
number of employees is 108, compared to the figure of 96 budgeted in the 1996/97
fiscal year. A total of 12 new employees were added. The per capita number of
employees is significantly lower than adjacent municipalities. This is due to the City's
emphasis on privatizing major functions of City services for greater productivity.
Position additions are as follows:
1. Public Safety Department - Added five Police Officer positions to expand services to
include a marine patrol, canine unit and tactical unit. Added two Administrative
Assistant positions and a Crime Scene Technician to address growing clerical needs
and enhance crime scene processing. A total of 69 positions are included. Of that
number, 49 are sworn officers. The department provides a full range of services
including criminal investigations, preventive patrol, bike patrol, crime prevention,
traffic enforcement and dispatch functions.
2. Finance Support Services Department - Added Customer Service Representative
position to respond to internal support service functions. This positions is vital to the
information management needs of the organization.
3. Community Services Department - Added Engineer Technician/CAD Operator
position to address infrastructure inspection requirements and maintenance of the
VII
City's computer mapping system. Funds have also been included to provide Bus
Drivers to implement the mini-bus service.
4. Office of the City Manager - Added Capital Projects Manager position to oversee
extensive Capital Improvement Program projects to insure that projects are
completed within schedule and budget requirements.
Contractual Services
The expenditures for contractual services are budgeted at $1,665,955 or 10.7% of the
General Fund budget. This is $1,256,545 less than the prior year. This can be
attributed to the discontinuance of contracting with the Metro Dade Police Department
for the first six months of 1996/97.
Other Charges and Services
Expenditures for other charges and services are budgeted at $1,319,503, which
represents 8.5% of the total budget. This category increased by $409,023. This can be
attributed to the cost of operating the Police Department for a full fiscal year.
Commodities
Expenditures for commodities are budgeted at $205,565, which represents 1.3% of the
total budget.
Other Operating Expenses
Total costs associated with other operating expenses are budgeted at $127,780, which
represents .8% of the total budget.
Capital Outlay
This budget marks the first year of the implementation of the City's five year Capital
Improvement Program. The CIP defines a long term plan of proposed capital
expenditures to address infrastructure needs long neglected by the County and the
maintenance of a desirable high quality of life. Major emphasis was placed on street
lighting improvements, beautification and landscape projects, road and safety
improvements, and Aventura Founders Park development. A total of $7,100,701,
including a $3,742,571 reserve, has been budgeted in the General Fund for Capital
Outlay.

Summary
I am pleased to submit the detailed budget contained herein for Fiscal Year 1997/98.
The budget reaffirms the City Council's commitment to developing a strong financial
base for the City while maintaining the lowest tax rate in Dade County. Overall, the
proposed budget expands upon the quality level of services established last fiscal year
and at the same time, accomplishes the stated pro-established priorities of the City
Council. As was the theme last year, the budget contains a very ambitious plan which
will require the support and dedication of the City Council, City Administration, City
employees and residents working together as a team.
Some of the major points emphasized, in the proposed budget, are as follows:
· For the third year, no property tax increase. Adopts 1995 County UMSA millage rate
of 2.2270
Added five Police Officer positions to expand services to include a marine patrol,
canine unit and tactical unit. Added two Administrative Assistant positions and a
Crime Scene Technician to address growing clerical needs and enhance crime
scene processing.
· Includes funding to develop a Citywide shuttle bus service to link the residential
areas with the commercial establishments.
XI
Provides for $12,608,130 worth of capital improvements and $3,787,687 CIP
reserve. The City's infrastructure needs are addressed through a broad mix of
Capital Improvement projects, which will enhance the City's quality of life, and the
attractiveness of the City.
· Includes funding for the construction of the City's first park, Aventura Founders
Park, which will provide 11 acres of both passive and recreational opportunities.
· Continues contracting most maintenance functions, engineering and inspection
services to the private sector.
Includes funding for debt service costs to finance $13,900,000 Revenue Bond issue
to construct the Cultural Center and the permanent Government Center and Police
Station, as well as parcels of land to be utilized for the park and government center.
· Funding has been budgeted to continue to purchase state of the art computer
equipment for the automation of both police and governmental operations.
· Special Events such as July 4th, Founders Day and Arbor Day, as well as cultural
programs and recreational activities are included.
Includes over $1,635,150 for beautification and community enhancement projects
including landscaping, lighting improvements, road improvements, bus
benches/shelters and to address safety concerns.
Establishes a Stormwater Utility Fund to correct and improve drainage along the
roadways in accordance with the Capital improvement Program. The same fee
currently paid to the County of $2.00/month/residential unit is proposed.
· Funds police equipment needs from laptop computers to new police vehicles in the
amount of $580,000.
· Utilizes park impact fees and police impact fees paid by new development to fund
$1,175,000 worth of capital improvements.
· Includes maintenance costs associated with converting private roads to city
jurisdiction.
· Continues the preparation of the City's Comprehensive Plan which is scheduled for
completion next year.
The preparation and formulation of this document could not have been accomplished
without the assistance and dedicated efforts of all Department Directors, the Director of
Finance Support Services and secretaricl personnel. All questions relating to the
XII
budget should be referred to my attention. A Council meeting will be held on July 21,
1997 to review in detail, the proposed budget document.

RE~fENUE PROJECTION RATIONALE
LOCALLY LEVIED TAXES
Ad Valorem Taxes Current - Ad Valorem or property taxes are authorized by Chapter
166, Florida Statutes. The Florida Constitution limits local governments to a
maximum of 10 mills of Ad Valorem taxation. The amount of revenue is based on the
tax rate multiplied by the assessed value of the City which is provided by the County
Property Appraisal Department. The amount is then budgeted at 95% of it's gross
value to allow for prompt payment discounts and other adjustments in accordance
with Florida Statutes. The City's assessed value as reported by the Property
Appraisal Department is $2,771,785,010. The 1995/96 fiscal year Unincorporated
Municipal Services Area (UMSA) millage was 2.2270. The City's 1996/97 budget
adopted that same rate without increase. The 1997/98 budget again adopts a
millage rate of 2.2270, the third year without an increase. By contrast, the County
adopted a rate of 2.2770 for UMSA in 1996/97 and has proposed a rate of 3.2000
mills for the 1997/98 fiscal year.
Ad Valorem Taxes Delinquent - This revenue source is derived by those taxpayers
who do not pay their taxes by March 31 of any given year. On average the total
revenue received in this category is minimal when compared to the total Ad Valorem
taxes collected.
Franchise Fee-Electric - A city may charge electric companies for the use of its rights
of-way per Florida Statutes 166.021 and 337.401. Metro Dade currently has an
agreement with FPL covering the areas now incorporated as Pinecrest and
Aventura, as well as the current unincorporated areas of the County. The County
Commission, via an interlocal agreement, has agreed to share these revenues with
Aventura on a 50/50 basis for the 1997/98 fiscal year. Thereafter, the City will
receive 100% of the revenues. The amount projected is based on estimates from
comparisons of other cities plus an assumed growth rate of 3.5%.
Franchise Fee-Telephone - A city may charge telephone companies for the use of its
rights-of -way per Florida Statutes 166.021 and 337.401. The fees cannot exceed
1% of gross revenues. The amount projected is based on estimates from
comparisons of other cities plus a growth rate of 3.5%.
Franchise Fee-Gas - A city may charge gas companies for the use of its rights-of -
way per Florida Statutes 166.021 and 337.401. It is standard practice to enact a 6%
fee on gross revenues. The amount projected is based on estimates from
comparisons of other cities plus a growth rate of 3.5%.

Franchise Fee-CATV - Pursuant to federal law local governments may charge cable
companies for the use of their rights-of-way. Such fees from all local governments
cannot exceed 5% of gross revenues. The County advises that they charge 5% in
unincorporated areas and 2% in incorporated areas; cities are free to charge 3% of
gross revenues. The amount projected is based on estimates from comparisons of
other cities, seven months actual collections in 1996/97 plus a growth factor of 3.5%.
Franchise Fee-Sanitation - The City issues solid waste franchises to the private
sector for all areas of the City. In addition a fee of 13% was adopted for the private

seven months actual collections in 1996/97 plus a growth factor of 3.5%.
Franchise Fee-Towing - The City will be awarding a franchise agreement for towing
services within our corporate limits by the beginning of the 1997/98 fiscal year. The
amount projected is based on estimates from comparisons of other cities.

collect Public Service or Utility Taxes. Dade County previously established by
Ordinance utility taxes for unincorporated areas in the amount of 10% on electricity.
The City enacted Ordinance 96-03 which mirrored the County's utility tax levies. The
projection is based on actual collections for a portion of the 1995/96 fiscal year and
the first seven months of the 1996197 fiscal year plus a growth rate of 3%.
Utility Tax-Telecommunications - Section 166.231(1)(A), Florida Statues, authorizes

State Revenue Proceeds - Revenue received in this category represents a
portion of the total State Revenue Sharing Funds. Their source is the motor fuel
tax and is restricted to road construction and maintenance. Based on information
from the State, it is anticipated that $78,000 will be received in the upcoming
fiscal year.
Local Option Gas Tax - The County has adopted two phases of the local option
gas tax. The first phase is six cents per gallon on fuel and is collected by the
State's Department of Revenue and remitted monthly based on a formula which
provides a weight of 75% to population and 25% to center line mileage in each
city. These funds must be used for transportation related expenditures. The
second phase must be used for transportation expenditures needed to meet the
requirements of the capital improvements elements of an adopted
comprehensive plan.

EXPENDITURE
Transfer To General Fund - After the budget is reviewed, specific expenditure
accounts in the Community Services Department and the Capital Improvement
Program will be designated as funded from this fund. Although we will account
for these expenditures within the General Fund, transfers will be made once per
month from the street construction and maintenace fund to the general fund to
reimburse the general fund for actual expenditures made from these designated
expenditure accounts.

6-60-6606 Draina.qe Improvements - Based on the Stormwater Master Plan prepared by the
City's consulting engineers, the City has been divided into three major basins; (1) the area to
the south of the Lehman Causeway, (2) the area between Lehman Causeway and NE 207th
Street and (3) the area north of NE 207th Street. The following three areas within the City have
been identified as locations of primary concern: (Area 1) west of NE 30 Avenue and east of
Biscayne Boulevard; (Area 2) in the southwest portion of the City bounded by NE 193 Street
and to the south by NE 185 Street and; (Area 3) a triangular area located in the northwest
corner of the City. This project consists of improving stormwater drainage for all parts of the
City via two Stormwater Collectors, one proposed for NE 207 Street (North Aventura
Stormwater Collector), and one for NE 29 Ave. between 187 and 191 Street (South Aventura
Stormwater Collector). Both collectors will have positive outfalls discharging the runoff into
canals that connect to the Intracoastal Waterway. This will enable the effective dissemination
of stormwater and resolve the street drainage problems that currently exist. Additional projects
included provide for the installation of stormwater drainage systems that will feed into the two
collectors and ongoing annual minor drainage improvements. Most projects include the cost of
resurfacing the affected roadways. Some projects include the installation of curb, gutter, and
sidewalks as needed. The following projects are scheduled for the 1997/98 fiscal year:
Williams Island Road (N. E. 183 Street) Improvements $250,000
Minor Drainage Improvements 25,000

APPENDIX
BUDGET SYSTEM
The City of Aventura uses the Budgeting by Objectives Process in the formulation of its
budget. Departmental Budgets include a Recap page that contains the Department
Description and Personnel Allocation Summary and Organization Chart. Each
department also includes an Objectives page and a Budgetary Account Summary. The
Objectives page presents a review of the department objectives and
performance/workload indicators. The Budgetary Account Summary provides
expenditure detail and a comparison of current and previous years expenditures. The
Budgetary Process is intended to be very valuable in communicating with the Council
and citizens of the City.
BUDGET PROCESS
The City of Aventura's Budget process began in April with a staff meeting between the
City Manager and Department Directors to review budget philosophy and develop
overall goals and objectives. The entire budget process encompasses approximately
five (5) months of the fiscal year. During this period, meetings were held with
Department Directors, the City Council and the public to insure representative input.
The budget calendar that follows details the actions taken during the budget process.

BUDGET AMENDMENT
The Budget Amendment Process will differ as to form depending on whether or not the
original budget appropri'~fion is exceeded as follows:
Any change or amendment to the budget that will increase the original total
appropriated amount can only be accomplished with the preparation of an
Ordinance requiring two (2) public hearings and approval by the City Council.
Any change or amenament to the budget which transfers monies within a
fund but does not increase the total appropriated amount can be
accomplished with the preparation of a Resolution. This does not require a
public hearing, however, approval by the City Council is still necessary.
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
Basis of Accounting refers to the time period when revenues and expenditures are
recognized in the accounts and reported on the financial statements. Basis of
accounting relates to the timing of the measurements made, regardless of the
measurement focus applied.
The accrual basis of accounting is followed for the proprietary fund types. The modified
accrual basis of accounting is followed in the governmental fund types and the
expendable trust funds type. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues
are recorded when susceptible to accrual, that is, when they are both measurable and
available. Available means collectible within the current period or soon enough
thereafter to pay current liabilities. Expenditures are generally recognized under the
modified accrual accounting when the related fund liability is incurred. Exceptions to the
general rule are principal and interest on general long-term debt which is recognized
when due.
