Miami Shores Village, Florida
CITY MANAGER’S BUDGET MESSAGE
September 3, 2025
The Honorable Mayor Jerome Charles and
Members of the Miami Shores Village Council
10050 NE 2nd Avenue
Miami Shores, Florida 33138
Fiscal Year 2025-2026 Adopted Operating and Capital Improvement Plan Budget
Dear Mayor and Council:
In accordance with Florida State Statute 200.065 and Miami Shores Village Charter 34 (2),
it is my duty to present the Adopted Operating Budget for fiscal year 2026 (FY26) that
begins on October 1, 2025, and ends on September 30, 2026. This Operating Budget also
details the Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan.
As we are getting ready to adopt a budget, we must thank you for your diligence and
involvement in the series of reviews, workshops, and hearings that will precede the final
vote for adoption. It is a tedious but necessary operation, one that has been ongoing
since March of this year, when Capital Improvement Projects items were first identified,
value-engineered, prioritized, and documented.
The Adopted budget being presented is a balanced budget. It incorporates the
collective voices of the community and its needs; the consensus of your leadership,
governmental best practices, and continued investments as borne out in our detailed,
inclusive, and Village-dictated, adopted Strategic Management Plan.
It is a budget that is well measured and clears a responsible path forward – one that
sustains our historic progress, fans, and continues to deliver on the promise of major
projects across needed areas of our Village. While our budget accomplishes all this and
more without any increase in our millage rate, we will be honest and transparent about
the challenges down the road so that they are well documented.
This upcoming year will be another that carefully weighs the needs of the community, the
short-term and long-term necessities as identified by staff, and an overall action plan that
provides the most effective and efficient use of available resources to achieve the
aspirations of the Village Council.
The millage rate remains at 7.8000 – the same as that adopted in FY25.
Esmond K. Scott
Village Manager Miami Shores Village
Miami Shores Village, Florida
The budget reflects an ad valorem revenue increase of $1.39M or 9.56% increase to 7.8
mils. This is the amount derived from the total assessment of Village properties received
from the Miami-Dade County Tax Assessor. The total taxable assessed value of all
properties totaled $2,152,326,300 - an increase of 8.76% over the final gross taxable value
of FY25. Our debt service millage rate is now 0.1331 - a decrease of 0.0128 - solely
attributable to the Doctors Charter School’s debt. Financed at 2.5 %, this debt will sunset
in 2033.
Property values in Miami-Dade County have been on a consistent upward trend, with
significant increases observed across all municipalities. The countywide estimated
taxable value rose to $471.5 billion in 2024. This was a 10.0% increase from the previous
year. In 2025, the taxable value increased by 8.5% to $511.8 billion.
Miami Shores’ 2024 taxable value was reported at $1.98 billion, with a significant increase
of 8.76 % projected for 2025. This growth reflects the overall trend in Miami-Dade County,
where increased sales volumes, prices, and new construction have driven property values
upward.
The last year or two has focused on the needs of our physical, technical, social, and
human resources infrastructures. We have made great strides and achieved much
success in our plans to address them.
Our human resources infrastructure has been bolstered by the presence of a human
resources professional giving us the ability to put systems in place to meet and address
standard policies and procedures, and certainly best practices. The results of Evergreen’s
Compensation and Classification Study were unanimously approved by the Council. This
has allowed us to set the stage to be competitive in attracting quality applicants. The
study re-examined the responsibilities, salaries, and work performed by all positions. The
result would then lead to the development of revised job descriptions, classify positions
using a uniformed factor point analysis standard, survey the government marketplace of
comparable municipalities to determine representative compensation rates, and
develop and recommend a pay plan.
The Council also voted to uphold the General Employees’ Pension Board’s
recommendation to address pension reform in the following areas:
1. Opt-Out Option for certain key executives only
2. Extending the DROP from 5 years to 8 years.
3. Requiring new General Employees to participate in the Plan effective immediately upon
hire with contributions commencing with the first pay period:
The Septic to Sewer conversion in Shores Estates has finally begun. This is the first such
residential construction, and it signals the start of what, hopefully, will be more projects.
The recent award of $7M in Clean Water Grants received earlier this year served to
supplement rising costs – including connection fees – in the Shores Estates construction
project. Five million dollars of the $7M will begin funding for our second identified area of
great concern.
Miami Shores Village, Florida
Infrastructure investment, largely necessitated by aging and neglected infrastructure, has
been at the forefront of this administration’s operations budget over recent years and has
been met with the will of the Council.
The NE 96 Street roadway and curb and gutter project is one of such projects. Our
Bayfront Park Seawall Project has finally received permitting, and the notice to proceed
has been given. This signals the beginning of the construction of a highly debated,
sometimes controversial, but much needed and well overdue construction project. This is
slated for a June 2026 completion date.
Similarly, construction on the Odell Manor’s wall has begun.
It is often stated that budgets are an expression of our values. The document we present
for this fiscal year exactly reaffirms our tireless commitment to supporting your endeavors
and our residents, uplifting our community, and investing in our employees, infrastructure,
and technology with full transparency.
In last year’s budget message, we also wrote that Master Plans within the framework of a
Capital Improvement Plan chronicle a municipality’s intention for the future and provide
guidance to accomplish that vision in a structured way.
I am pleased to report that through your vision and support, several of these Master Plans
are either finished, underway, being reviewed, or in various stages of delivery. They are as
follows:
Our Septic to Sewer Master Plan has been presented and is now under review.
The Parks Master Plan is well underway and should be delivered in the Fall of 2025.
Stormwater Master Plan – This is slated for a December 2025 delivery date.
FY26 will find us in a position of shovel-readiness. This will equip us to seek grants and other
funding.
Over the years we have diligently sought out and secured various grants. These have
served in providing the financial resources necessary to address our most pressing needs.
We have been instrumental in this endeavor, working tirelessly to align our funding
opportunities with the strategic goals of our municipality.
Grants play a crucial role in our efforts to improve community conditions. These financial
investments, sourced from local, corporate, state, and federal entities, help us tackle
unmet needs that continue to grow year after year. By applying for grants, we can
determine our priorities, adopt best practices, and implement effective policies. This not
only allows us to meet our goals but also ensures that we can measurably impact the
areas we serve.
Overall, our efforts to secure grants have resulted in an approximate total of $27M in grant
awards over recent years. This financial support has been instrumental in driving our
community forward, enabling us to undertake numerous projects that would otherwise
Miami Shores Village, Florida
be unattainable given our resources. These grants have allowed us to improve
infrastructure, to provide better environmental resilience from flooding, to finally begin to
address our septic to sewer needs, enhance our law enforcement capabilities, and
strengthen our community through best practices.
As we look to the future, we remain committed to exploring new grant opportunities to
continue our journey towards a safer, more resilient, and vibrant community. But first, we
must continue to monitor and manage those we have, as the funding is critical and
reporting requirements and guidelines stringent and unforgiving.
At the forefront of FY26 is the dilemma of our Golf and Country Club physical infrastructure
as well as its management. Professional Course Management, with whom we have had
a management agreement since 1989, has entered the fourth of a four one-year option
with Miami Shores Village. This fourth-year option began on November 1, 2024, and lasts
through October 31, 2025. Though we have signed an agreement that could last through
April 2026, come May 1, 2026, a new management agreement would have had to be
forged to ensure continuance. How we proceed, and with whom, will be largely dictated
by procurement processes. The National Golf Foundation (NGF), with whom we
engaged to assist with how we move forward, has given suggestions.
While the management structure will not continue in its present format and its final form is
not likely to be contentious, the country club facilities and golf course designs will give
cause for debate. At the crux of this all is the South Florida Water Management District’s
planned C-8 Basin Resiliency project. When the first conceptual plans were introduced,
the project features included enhancing the S-28 Structure, adding 500 cubic feet per
second (cfs) pump station, canal bank enhancements, a temporary detention area and
living shoreline features.
Today, while design has not yet been finalized, conversations about District funding, a
possible 2,550 cfs pump, and a possible redesign of the one suggested by NGF has
muddied up what should have been a municipal golf course upgrade – albeit one that
is major. How we proceed will occupy a great portion of this fiscal year.
The foregoing is but some of the challenges and factors of which we are mindful, as we
prepare for yet another fiscal year.
FISCAL YEAR 2026 BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS
The FY26 budget presents, proposes and provides the most effective, efficient, and
creative use of available resources necessary in a very transparent manner.
This year we will continue to keep our Strategic Management Plan as one of the key
factors driving our budget. What is it that our community desires? Our goals, objectives
Miami Shores Village, Florida
and priorities are clearly laid out in the document, and this budget responds to what was
and has been signaled to us as being important elements for our community.

Avenue. The Village is looking at alternate transportation free ride services, new circulator,
as well as other roadway improvements.
Building Fund
This fund was created in FY2022 to comply with State Reporting Requirements.
Highlights
• Professional Services and Technology - Anticipated increase in costs due to rising service
fees from key technology providers. Increase reflects ongoing investments in essential
software and digital tools that support the department’s operations.
Miami Shores Village, Florida

revenue for the upcoming fiscal year.
Debt Service Fund
This fund accounts for the 2004 General Obligation bonds issued to fund the design,
development, and construction of the Miami Shores Doctors Charter School construction
(2004).
Highlight
• The millage rate decreased.
Capital Improvement Fund (CIP)
This fund accounts for major acquisitions and projects to improve the Village. This five-
year plan tends to be fluid as it projects 5 years out and not all projects are cast in stone
or even yet realized. Available funding and timing are critical in any five-year CIP Plan.
Highlight
• A detailed CIP list showing funding is attached. This year’s recommendations are
balanced across funds and are based on overall needs.
Enterprise Funds
These funds operate like a private business, using user charges and fees to finance their
operations and recover costs, rather than relying on general taxes. They require sufficient
working capital to ensure long-term financial stability, risk mitigation, and stable service
delivery.
Stormwater Fund
This fund accounts for the operations and maintenance of the Village’s stormwater
system.
There are 4 grant projects being paid for by this fund:
• NE 105th Street Shores Estates Pump Station Project
• NE 93rd Street Pump Station

system.
Highlight
• Solid Waste rates increasing
o Residents will see an increase of 15% for single family residential and an overall 20%
increase in revenues for the Solid Waste Fund. The cost for Solid Waste has far outpaced
the Adopted annual incremental increases per Ordinance 2019-08. Solid Waste is an
Enterprise Fund and by strict finance guidelines, the costs of services provided through an
enterprise fund are generally recovered through charges to the users of the services. A
fund balance and working capital are also essential.
Water & Wastewater Fund
This fund accounts for the annual assessments to pay for the construction cost and
maintenance fees for the NE Second Avenue Business District Water & Sewer Project.
Maintenance costs for the grinder pumps are paid from this fund.
Highlights
• Maintenance fees increasing by 3% per Resolution 2020-12
• Septic to sewer conversion
Internal Service Funds
Risk Management Fund
This fund accounts for the accumulation and allocation of costs associated with
insurance.
Fleet Management Fund
This fund accounts for all direct and indirect costs to maintain and operate the Village’s
vehicles and equipment fleet.
Miami Shores Village, Florida
Highlight
• Increase from $980,000 to $1.4M due to significant purchase of machinery, equipment,
and vehicles. Many have been deferred purchases.
Information Technology Fund
This is the fourth year of this Internal Service Fund. While the formal consolidation of the IT
Fund began in FY 2023, the FY 2026 budget reflects a critical next step: the full
reassignment of all technology-related expenses from individual departmental general
ledger (GL) accounts to centralized IT-controlled GL accounts. This enables more
transparent and accurate budgeting; simplifies cross-departmental IT planning and cost
control; enhances tracking of shared systems and centralized infrastructure investment.
Highlights
• The FY 2026 Information Technology (IT) Budget reflects a strategic realignment of Village
resources to support modernization, resiliency, and enterprise-wide service delivery.
• IT budget has been fully consolidated this year for greater transparency and efficiency.
• Major capital investment in Security and Infrastructure.
• Physical security upgrades to surveillance systems, access control, and encoder
replacement.
• Vehicle diagnostic software (Motor Pool), and accelerated laptop replacement due to
increased failure rates.
• Investments ensure facility security, operational uptime, and long-term sustainability.
• Expansion of Software, Cybersecurity, and Resident-Facing Application Enhancements.
• Microsoft perpetual licensing to maintain support for core infrastructure beyond 2025.
• Resiliency improvements, such as a cloud backup and a secure file.
• Infrastructure upgrades to strengthen fiber and internet connectivity.
• Development of new digital resident facing portals that enhance public access.
• Continued IT Budget Consolidation for Transparency and Strategic Control.
The very significant increase in the total budget reflects this structural refinement, not
uncontrolled growth, and equips IT to deliver coordinated, cost-effective support across
all Village departments.
Looking Forward
Economic Development
The primary objective of Miami Shores Village’s economic development strategy is to
cultivate a healthy local economy and to facilitate a resilient tax base through fostering
entrepreneurship, retaining and expanding local businesses, and investing in strategic
partnerships and innovation.
Miami Shores Village, Florida
With more than 95% of businesses in the Village representing small businesses, a key focus
of Village administration has been in developing programs uniquely tailored to support
and strengthen small businesses with less than 10 employees in the downtown and
beyond. The Village continues to invest in technical support for small business owners
through workshops and one on one business coaching meetings through the Village’s
Business Clinic.
Miami Shores Village continues to benefit from a stable and affluent residential tax base,
characterized by single-family households and a well-educated population of working
professionals.
Economic Outlook
The combination of high-income levels, substantial consumer spending, and a well-
educated populace positions Miami Shores Village favorably for continued economic
growth. These factors support local businesses and provide a strong foundation for future
development initiatives.
In Conclusion
The FY 26 Budget is intended to serve four (4) primary functions:
I. A Policy Document: As a Policy Document, the budget indicates what services the Village
will provide during the fiscal year. Additionally, the level of services and reasons for their
provision are stated. The Village Manager’s message summarizes long-term and short-
term concerns, financial situations, and how the Budget will address specific issues in the
current fiscal year.
II. An Operations Guide: As an Operations Guide, the Budget indicates how departments
and funds are organized to provide services to the residents and visitors to our Village.
Changes for FY26 are summarized in the Village Manager’s Executive Message and
detailed in the respective department budgets.
III. A Financial Plan: As a Financial Plan, the Budget summarizes and details the taxpayers’
costs for current and Adopted service levels plus how they will be funded. Within the
Village Manager’s Message is a narrative description of the major revenue sources for
each fund and expected receipts and summaries of adopted expenditures. Detailed
financial information is illustrated in the Fund Analysis and Capital Improvement Plan, in
addition to data found within the Department Summary section. Such information is listed
in four (4) columns in our budget: 2024 Actual Unaudited, 2025 Adopted Budget, 2025
Actual, and 2026 Adopted Budget.
IV. A Communications Tool: As a Communications Device, the Budget is designed to be user-
friendly with summary information in text, charts, tables, and graphs. Additionally, it is

Village’s FY26 Adopted Budget, you can contact the Village’s Finance Department or

As we approach October 1, 2025, and look ahead, the visual of what needs to be done
is quite daunting. And so, we are reminded that there is much to be done. I am grateful
that, through your strong support, we have identified and agree that our investments are
apparently needed.
To that end, this budget highlights the investments we have made in our infrastructure
planning, civic infrastructure, employees, information technology, safety, and overall
governance.
The budget represents continued fiscal conservatism and an uncompromising approach
to financial health. We are meeting the current financial, service, and capital obligations
and will continue to employ all measures necessary to ensure that we remain healthy in
adapting to municipal finance best practices and within the confines of our finances.
We are realizing increased revenues through ad valorem and other taxes. We are also
sourcing grants and looking at other revenue sources to ensure our bold future. I am
proud of the efforts of our department directors and their diligence in preparing their
budgets, as well as their consistently keen attention to the details.
Our budget remains driven by and reflective of the residents of our Miami Shores Village
and the needs of the community. Together, we have fundamentally transformed
leadership engagement. And because government skepticism remains constant in our
lives, we strive for full transparency and nothing less. It is more critical than ever before to
communicate directly with our neighbors, listen, and ensure that our budget represents
and supports them.
We thank our many residents who remain involved and who share their thoughts,
opinions, expertise, and voices.
And, of course, endless thanks to you, our Council, for your leadership, guidance, and
understanding. Thank you, Mayor Jerome Charles, Vice Mayor Neil Cantor,
Councilmember George Burch, Councilmember Jesse Valinsky, and Councilmember
Patrick Devaney.
Respectfully Submitted,
Esmond K. Scott

HISTORY
The thriving community that we know today as Miami Shores Village was first settled in
the early 1870s. The Sturtevants, the Barnotts, the Potters, the Sears, the Woods and
the Hunts, were the names of some of the earliest homesteaders in the area, originally
known as the community, “Biscayne”. In the early 1900s, Hugh M. Anderson, an
experienced real estate developer who had previously completed the successful
development of the Venetian Islands, set his sights on a new project – a vision of Miami
Shores in which residences of Italian-inspired architecture sat within a landscape
associated with water. The master development plan for Greater Miami Shores included
9,000 building sites, 5 2/3 miles of bay frontage, four miles of inland waterways and ten
miles of main roadways. The plans also called for the construction of a causeway to
Miami Beach, a golf course, a country club, a yacht club, a business district, apartment
buildings, hotels, a school and churches, a railroad station and beautifying features such
as parks, plazas and entryways.
Early in 1926, it was reported that approximately fifty homes had been completed,
another fifty were under construction, and an additional one hundred were being
planned. The commercial building program was in progress, sidewalks and roadways
were being laid out, and lighting and landscape work was well underway. Record-setting
sales and resales of property were being recorded. Unfortunately, on September 18,
1926, all plans for the community came to a halt with the arrival of the devastating
Great Miami Hurricane. In 1931, under the leadership of Roy Hawkins, who is credited
as being the “principal founder” of Miami Shores Village, a request to grant a charter
creating Miami Shores Village was presented in the State Legislature. On January 2,
1932, the Village became official at a Council meeting.
In the ensuing decades, growth was steady. A variety of architectural styles were
introduced, yet the community emerged as the type of development Anderson had
envisioned. Today, the community retains many of its original characteristics – well-
situated and serviced by major highways, having tree-lined streets and wide roads, a
downtown area, well-maintained homes provided with efficient services and a variety of
community activities. Miami Shores Village, which has come to be known as “The Village
Beautiful,” remains one of Miami-Dade County’s most desirable suburbs.

At the Core of The Shores
Miami Shores Village, often referred to simply as Miami Shores, is a distinctive
residential community located in the northeastern section of Miami-Dade County,
Florida. Officially incorporated in 1932, the Village was originally developed as a planned
suburb during South Florida’s early 20th-century land boom. Its founders envisioned a
tranquil, park-like setting to contrast the bustling urban development of nearby Miami—
and that character has endured for nearly a century.
Today, Miami Shores is known for its wide, tree-lined streets, architecturally diverse
homes, and strong sense of civic pride. Spanning just under 3.75 square miles, the
Village maintains a predominantly single-family residential land use pattern, with small-
scale commercial corridors and a handful of multifamily dwellings and townhomes. Its
built environment includes well-preserved examples of Mediterranean Revival, Art Deco,
and Mid-Century Modern architecture—reflecting both its historical roots and modern
revitalization.
Centrally located on the shores of Biscayne Bay, the Village offers convenient access to
downtown Miami, Miami Beach, and the greater South Florida region. Despite this
proximity to urban centers, Miami Shores has preserved a small-town atmosphere,
reinforced by its own municipal police department, public library, community centers,
parks, and a municipally owned golf course and country club.

Doctors Charter School, one of Florida’s
few municipally sponsored charter
schools, was established in 2005 with
support from community stakeholders,
including Village residents, Barry
University, and local education advocates.
Miami Shores Village played an initial
facilitative role during the school’s
development, including support for site
selection and planning discussions.
However, the Village relinquished any
operational involvement upon the
establishment of the independent school
governance structure. Doctors Charter
School consistently earns high academic
ratings.
VILLAGE PROFILE
FISCAL YEAR ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 2026
This emphasis on education has contributed to a highly informed and engaged
population, with over 60% of residents holding a bachelor's degree or higher.
A defining feature of the community is its
commitment to education and civic
engagement. Miami Shores is home to
Barry University, a private Catholic
institution serving students from around
the globe.
Miami Shores Village operates under a
Council-Manager form of government
and maintains a strong tradition of fiscal
discipline, community planning, and
public service. Residents are deeply
involved in shaping the future of the
community through active participation
in local boards, town meetings, and civic
associations.

Culturally, Miami Shores is one of the more diverse and inclusive communities in Miami-
Dade County. With nearly 30% of residents born outside the United States and nearly half
speaking a language other than English at home, the Village exemplifies the multicultural
fabric of South Florida.
The Shores Snapshot
It has historically been welcoming to LGBTQ+
families and individuals and has adopted
progressive non-discrimination policies
ahead of many neighboring jurisdictions.
Miami Shores Village is a fiscally stable,
inclusive, and well-served single-family
residential community with high levels of
education, income, and owner-occupancy.
The Village maintains an excellent array of
services—police, recreation, library, charter
and public schools, and higher education—
supporting its reputation as “The Village
Beautiful.” Structural fiscal balance is
supported by resident ability to pay, modest
population growth, and a stable property
base. The demographic diversity supports
equitable community engagement and
public trust.

BUDGET OVERVIEW

Miami Shores Village, Florida
Fiscal Year 2026 Adopted Budget **** Page 37****
BUDGET OVERVIEW
FISCAL YEAR ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 2026
A budget is a financial plan that allocates resources to deliver priority services, facilities and
equipment. Budgeting is an extensive process that results in a budget document, an
accounting ledger, a spending plan and a system to review progress in meeting goals and
to define and quantify new and updated goals.
The approved budget document is the Village’s spending policy created through
recommendations by the Village Manager to the Mayor and Council. The Council and the
Village Manager have been engaged in ongoing dialogue about services throughout the
year. Additionally, the community is engaged through a series of budget workshops and
budget hearings where Council provides budgetary instructions in advance of formal budget
presentation. The Village Manager and team develop the budget to meet the goals,
objectives and strategies expressed by the Council who represent the interests of all Village
residents and businesses. Upon adoption by Council, which is the only body that can make
it law, the Village Manager is authorized to make certain expenditures in order to accomplish
the goals established by the Council.
Certain steps are common to sound budgeting processes:
Policy Development
Financial Planning
Service or Operations Planning and
Communications
Operating budgets for all funds adhere to the modified accrual basis of accounting. In
accordance with this convention, recognition of revenues occurs when they become
available and measurable. Expenses are recognized in the period goods and services are
received or when liabilities have been incurred. Expenditures for capital outlay are budgeted
rather than depreciation expense. Likewise, debt issuance is recognized as revenue and
debt service payments as expenses. Unrestricted net assets/unreserved fund balances
(residual liquid assets resulting from prior operations) are appropriated when necessary and
included as revenue on a budgetary basis but are eliminated for financial reporting.
The Village adopts a balanced budget so that expenditures approved for Council purposes
will not exceed the estimate of income expected from all sources, including available
balances from prior years. This policy applies to expenditures and revenues within each
fund, such that each fund is a self-balancing set of accounts.
Budgetary control is legally maintained at the department level. The Village Manager is
authorized to amend, modify, or otherwise adjust the Village's annual budget in accordance
with the spending limitations as established by Purchasing guidelines of Miami Shores
Village of Ordinances pursuant to the Budget Resolution. Other amendments to the budget
require authorization by the City Council. The City’s united approach to tasks to be
performed during the fiscal year is based on the vision, mission and goals as laid out in this
adopted plan and is evidenced in every project, initiative, and line item.

Fiscal Year 2026 Adopted Budget **** Page 38****
ANNUAL BUDGET PROCEDURES AND CALENDAR
FISCAL YEAR ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 2026
Florida Statutes (Chapter 200.065), known as TRIM (Truth In Millage) require that all city
governments prepare, approve, adopt and execute an annual budget for such funds as may
be required by law or by sound financial practices and generally accepted accounting
principles. Accordingly, the following procedures have been established for budget adoption:
Truth In Millage
The Village is required to hold two public hearings for adoption of a property tax rate and
budget. The first public hearing is advertised by the Property Appraiser mailing to each
property owner a TRIM notice. In addition to notification of this first public hearing, the
TRIM notice contains the following information:
1. Prior year millage rate.
2. Current year Adopted millage rate.
3. Current year rolled-back rate.
4. The date, time and meeting place of the Tentative Budget Hearing.
The second public hearing is advertised by means of a newspaper advertisement
summarizing the revenues and expenditures in the budget tentatively approved at the
first public hearing.
The calendar represents the annual budget process as previously described.
April Departments submit operating and 5-year capital improvement projects
budget requests to the Capital Improvement Department
May Departmental meetings with Finance and the Budget Review Committee to
review and revise budget requests.
June Final adjustments are made and the Adopted balanced budget is
submitted to the City Manager for final review.
June-July The Adopted operating and 5-year capital improvement projects budgets
are presented to Mayor and Council through a series of public workshops. A pre-budget
workshop was held on June 17th, 2025 and a workshop on July 14th, 2025.
September Two budget hearings are conducted to set the millage rate and adopt the
budget.
Public hearings on the Fiscal Year 2026 budget will be held in Village Hall on
September 3, 2025 at 6:00 PM and September 16, 2025 at 6:00 PM.
October The adopted budget becomes effective on October 1. Compliance with
Chapter 200, F.S. is certified to the Florida Department of Revenue.

Fiscal Year 2026 Adopted Budget **** Page 39****
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING AND BUDGETING
FISCAL YEAR ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 2026
Basis of Accounting & Budgeting
The Village uses funds and account groups to report on its financial position and the results
of its operations. Fund accounting is designed to demonstrate legal compliance, and to aid
financial management by segregating transactions related to certain government functions
or activities.
A fund is defined by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) as "a fiscal and
accounting entity with a self-balancing set of accounts recording cash and other financial
resources, together with all related liabilities and residual equities and balances, and
changes therein, which are segregated for the purpose of carrying on specific activities or
attaining certain objectives in accordance with special regulations, restrictions, or
limitations."
Funds are classified into three categories: governmental, proprietary, and fiduciary. Each
category, in turn is divided into separate "fund types."
Governmental funds are used to account for all or most of a government's general activities,
including the collection and disbursement of earmarked monies (special revenue funds), the
acquisition or construction of general fixed assets (capital project funds) and the servicing of
long- term debt (debt service funds). The general fund is used to account for all activities
of the general government not required to be accounted for in another fund.
Proprietary funds are used to account for activities similar to those found in the private
sector, where the determination of net income is necessary or useful to sound financial
administration. Goods or services from such activities can be provided either to outside
parties (enterprise funds) or to other departments or agencies primarily within the
government (internal service funds).
Fiduciary funds are used to account for assets held on behalf of outside parties, including
other governments or on behalf of other funds within the government. When these assets
are held under the terms of a formal trust agreement, the fiduciary funds are classified as
pension trust funds, nonexpendable trust funds or expendable trust funds. The terms
"nonexpendable" and "expendable" refer to whether or not the government is under an
obligation to maintain the trust principal. Agency funds generally are used to account for
assets that the government holds on behalf of others as their agent. The Village does not
adopt budgets for any Fiduciary funds.
All governmental fund types, expendable trust funds and agency funds use the modified
accrual basis of accounting. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are
recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they become both measurable and
available). "Measurable" means the amount of the transaction can be determined and
"available" means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to be used
to pay liabilities of the current period. Expenditures, other than interest on long-term debt,
are recorded when the liability is incurred.

FUND DESCRIPTIONS
FISCAL YEAR ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 2026
The Village uses the following fund types:
GOVERNMENTAL FUND TYPES
Governmental Funds are those through which most governmental functions of the Village
are financed. The acquisition use and balances of the Village’s expendable financial
resources and the related liabilities (except those accounted for in proprietary funds) are
accounted for through governmental funds. The measurement focus is upon determination
of changes in financial position, rather than upon net income determination. The following
are the Village's governmental fund types that are budgeted:
General Fund - The General Fund is the Village’s primary operating fund. It accounts for
all the financial resources of the general government, except for those required to be
accounted for in another fund.
Special Revenue Funds - Special Revenue Funds are used to account for the proceeds of
specific revenue sources (other than expendable trusts, or major capital projects) that are
legally restricted to expenditures for specified purposes. The Village budgets the following
Special Revenue Funds:
Local Option Gas Tax – This fund accounts for the revenues from the six cents and additional
three cents sales tax levied on all petroleum products sold in Miami-Dade County and
apportioned to municipalities.
Transportation Surtax (CITT) – Accounts for the Village’s portion of the Miami-Dade County
one-half percent transportation surtax approved by voters in November 2002.
Building Fund – This fund was created in FY2022 to comply with State Reporting
Requirements. The Building Department is responsible for the administration and
enforcement of all applicable construction codes at the federal, state, county, and municipal
levels. Our primary mission is to safeguard the health, safety, and welfare of all who live,
work, and visit our community, including first responders, through the consistent application
of building standards.
Debt Service Fund – This fund records the inflow and outflow of cash related to the dedicated
ad valorem tax levies used to pay for the annual principal and interest costs associated with
the General Obligation Bonds, Series 2013, which replaced Series 1999 sold to design,
develop and construct the Miami Shores Aquatic Facility, as well as, the Series 2015 which
replaced the Series 2004 bond, sold to build the Doctors Charter School Facility.
Additionally, the payments toward clearing other outstanding debt are reported in this fund.
Costs associated with the management, reporting and payment of principal, interest and
fees are also included. The Village is required to complete a series of reports relating to the
debt including Continuing Disclosure Reports, State Bond Filings and special notes to the
Village's comprehensive annual financial report.
Miami Shores Village, Florida
Fiscal Year 2026 Adopted Budget **** Page 41****
FUND DESCRIPTIONS
FISCAL YEAR ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 2026
Special Revenue Funds (continued)
Capital Improvement Fund (CIP) – The Capital Project Fund is used to account for the
funding of municipal capital expenditures for the acquisition, construction or improvement
of major capital facilities or infrastructure; machinery and equipment; and other general
improvements with a life expectancy of more than three years.
PROPRIETARY FUND TYPES
Proprietary Funds are used to account for the Village's activities that are similar to those
often found in the private sector. The measurement focus is upon determination of net
position. Goods or services from such activities can be provided either to other departments
or agencies primarily within the government (Internal Service Funds) or to outside parties
(Enterprise Funds).
The Village budgets for the following:
Enterprise Funds:
Stormwater Fund – Accounts for the operations and maintenance of the Village’s stormwater
system. This Division maintains drains, pumps, and flooded locations during storms, as well
as cleans streets and performs light maintenance.
Solid Waste Fund – Accounts for the operations and maintenance of the Village’s solid waste
system. The Solid Waste Division is responsible for the management and disposal of all non-
hazardous solid waste for Miami Shores Village residents and businesses. Curbside
recycling, commercial and residential garbage collection and bulk trash removal services
constitute the Division's focus.
Water & Wastewater Fund – Accounts for the annual assessments to pay for the construction
cost and maintenance fees for the NE Second Avenue Business District Water & Sewer
Project. Future maintenance costs for the grinder pumps will be paid for from this fund.
Internal Service Funds
Risk Management Fund – The Village's Risk Management Internal Service Fund is a self-
balancing group of accounts designed to accumulate the necessary financial resources to
pay for the Village's insurance premiums, costs, deductibles and administrative services
insured by the Florida League of Cities.
Fleet Management Fund – The Fleet Management Fund, created in FY2000 as an Internal
Service Fund of the Public Works Department, is responsible for the acquisition and
maintenance of all Village-owned vehicles in the municipal inventory.
Information Technology Fund – The Information Technology Fund, established in FY 2023
as an Internal Service Fund within the Village Manager's Department, is dedicated to
modernizing and optimizing the Village’s technology infrastructure in alignment with the
Strategic Management Plan.

FINANCIAL INDICATORS
Miami Shores Village, Florida
Fiscal Year 2026 Adopted Budget **** Page 44****
FINANCIAL POLICIES
FISCAL YEAR ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 2026
Capitalization Policy
Capital assets are defined by the Village as assets with an initial, individual cost of more than
$5,000 for tangible capital assets, $30,000 for software and $75,000 for easements. Outlays
for capital assets and improvements including design, engineering, installation and similar
costs are budgeted in all funds. Periodically throughout the year, capital outlay accounts in
the proprietary funds are transferred into capital asset accounts. Available budget amounts
are not restored during this process. Capital assets are depreciated using the straight-line
method over the following useful lives:
Asset Years
Buildings and utility plant 30-
50
Improvements other than buildings 20
Furniture, fixtures, machinery and
equipment
5-10
Infrastructure 30
Depreciation and amortization expenses are included in the operational budgets because
they are non-cash transactions.
Reserve Policy
It is the City’s policy to maintain an amount equal to at least ten percent of total budgeted
revenues of the General Fund as originally adopted as unassigned fund balance in the
General Fund. The Unassigned fund balance represents the funds available to balance
future budgets. Reserve amounts may be included in the operational budgets of the Water
and Wastewater Funds to provide for future repair, replacement and improvement needs of
the utilities.
Contingency amounts can be included in the operational budgets of the various funds to
provide for unexpected and emergency purchases during the fiscal year.
Investment Policy
The City’s investment policy was designed to safeguard the City’s surplus funds, provide
for the availability of operating and capital funds when needed, and promote an investment
return competitive with comparable funds and financial market indices. In an effort to
accomplish these objectives, the investment policy identifies various portfolio parameters
addressing classes of investment instruments, issue diversification, maturity and duration
limits, investment ratings and liquidity. In addition, in accordance with Section 218.415,
Florida Statues, the City’s investment policy applies to all cash and investments held or
controlled by the City not otherwise classified as restricted assets requiring segregation.

REVENUE FORECASTING
FISCAL YEAR ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 2026
During budget development, the Village forecasts revenues using a variety of techniques.
Many of the revenue estimates are provided to the Village by outside entities, such as
Miami-Dade County, in the case of the taxable property values upon which the Village's
millage rate will be applied; and the State of Florida in the case of revenues that are
collected by the State and allocated to the various counties and municipalities. Examples
of those revenue sources are state shared sales taxes, communication services taxes and
local option gas taxes. Another technique used to forecast revenues is to examine the trend
of the revenue stream over the past several years. This is a useful technique for franchise
fees and utility taxes. The final forecasting method bases the revenue on estimated usage
of an item or service. This technique is useful for estimating charges for services and
licenses and permits. The following graphs display the trends of taxable property values
and millage rates over the past ten years.

GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS
General Fund
Ad Valorem Property Taxes
The Village's property tax is levied every October 1st, on the assessed value listed as of the
prior January 1, for all real and personal property located in the Village. Property taxes are
based on a millage rate (one mil is the equivalent of $1 per $1,000 of assessed value or
0.001), which is applied to the total taxable value of all real property and certain tangible
personal property. The Miami-Dade County Property Appraiser establishes assessed values
and delivers the Certified Taxable Value of each property to the Village on or before July 1st
of each year. The gross taxable value on January 1, 2025, upon which the 2025-2026 levy
was based, is approximately $2.15 billion.
Depending upon policies established by the City Council, revenue from Ad Valorem taxes
may be used to fund both operating costs and capital projects. The Village is permitted by
state law to levy taxes up to 10 mills of assessed valuation for the General Fund. State
constitutional provisions exist for raising the millage rate above the 10-mil cap by local
referendum and for debt service or provision of municipal-type services within the Village.
The Adopted operating millage rate for Fiscal Year 2026 is 7.8000 per $1,000 of taxable
value which is the same as the prior fiscal year’s operating millage rate. The Adopted debt
service millage rate is 0.1331 per $1,000 of taxable value which is a reduction of 0.0128
from Fiscal Year 2025 debt service millage rate of 0.1459.
Besides Miami Shores Village, other agencies levy taxes on the property values established
by the Property Appraiser. The following graph displays the allocation of property taxes
levied by the various agencies for the previous fiscal year.

The Fleet Management Fund is responsible for the acquisition and maintenance of all Village-
owned vehicles.

Permit Clerks manage the intake and initial processing of permit applications. This
includes verifying the completeness of submitted documents, confirming contractor
credentials, and entering application data into the permitting system before routing it
for technical review.
Plan Examiners evaluate submitted plans and documentation to ensure they meet all
relevant codes and regulations prior to permit issuance. Building Inspectors conduct
field inspections throughout the construction process to verify compliance with approved
plans, materials, and construction methods. Once a project meets all requirements, the
Department issues a Certificate of Occupancy or a Certificate of Completion.
GOALS AND MEASUREMENTS
Key objectives for the upcoming fiscal year include:
• Enhancing service efficiency by reducing permit and plan review turnaround times.
• Improving accessibility and convenience through upgrades to our online permitting
software.
• Promoting public awareness and engagement via outreach initiatives such as a Citizens
Academy to educate residents and stakeholders on permitting requirements and
building processes.
• Ensuring compliance and safety by maintaining rigorous plan reviews and inspections
that align with all regulatory standards.

FISCAL YEAR ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 2026
SERVICES, FUNCTIONS AND ACTIVITIES
The Capital Project Fund is used to account for the funding of municipal capital
expenditures for the acquisition, construction or improvement of major capital facilities
or infrastructure; machinery and equipment; and other general improvements with a

used or released. This year's budget includes a transfer from the General Fund to the
Capital Project Fund for several projects.
GOALS AND MEASUREMENTS

while engaging our residents and enhancing the highest quality of life for all, the goal
and objective of the Capital Projects Fund is to improve Village facilities and
infrastructure in an environmentally sustainable manner, spotlighting the community's
celebrated charm.

Miami Shores Village, Florida
Fiscal Year 2026 Adopted Budget **** Page 137****
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (CIP)
FISCAL YEAR ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 2026
SERVICES, FUNCTIONS AND ACTIVITIES
The Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) provides a roadmap as well as a monitoring tool for all
capital projects. CIP Guidelines are provided in the document immediately following this
narrative. The guidelines include key elements of a capital project definition; two of which
are (1) a monetary value greater than $5,000, and (2) a useful life period of greater than
one year.
CIP projects are quite diverse, ranging from construction of new facilities and
remodeling/expansion of existing ones to purchases of operating equipment, street
construction or reconstruction projects, infrastructure inspection and scheduled
replacements and overall design and construction improvements. The budgeting pattern of
typical multi-year CIP programs tends to be cyclical. Years of heavy financial investment in
an organization’s infrastructure, facilities, and equipment are usually followed by a year
where project completion rather than high levels of funding is emphasized. In this sense,
the classic five-year CIP Plan can be viewed more as a six- year capital plan, where the
current fiscal year’s mode, whether a heavy project implementation year or one more
focused on financial investment, drives the subsequent pattern of annual cycles over the
next five years
GOALS AND MEASUREMENTS
Living, Working, Playing Safety
A robust and well-planned CIP Plan is critical to ensure a safe, beautiful and ultimately
livable place to reside in, visit, and conduct business. Roadways and medians that are in
great condition, aesthetically pleasing public landscaping, well performing drainage
systems, modern, well-equipped public facilities, pipe replacements, force-main
replacements, leak detection, fireflow improvements and other CIP related and system
betterment items are major contributors to this important Strategic Plan Goal.
Financially Sound Government
For Fiscal Year 2026, the overall CIP budget is approximately $6.2 million compared to $2.1
million last fiscal year. For FY2026, the Operating Capital for our Stormwater fund will be
$1.7 million and represents an increase of $1.4 million from FY2025. This increase in
budgeting is due to pump station, drainage and piping system improvements along NE 93rd
Street, NE 105th Street and NE 104th Street. The budget for Capital Improvement
Programs (CIP) in the Solid Waste division has increased by $500K due to planned
purchases of a new recycling truck, replacement of a V-37 Loader and a V-3161 trash
grabber. The FY2026 budget for Capital Improvement Programs (CIP) in the CITT fund
increased by $990K mainly due to planned roadway improvements along NE 96th Street
(Phase 1) and NE 104th Street, and village-wide speed calming marking and signage
improvements.

FISCAL YEAR ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 2026
High Performing Municipal Organization Providing Exceptional Customer Service
The Public Works Department’s process for updating and serving as the guardian of the CIP
Plan annually involves input from all Village departments concerned.
In addition to administering the Village’s CIP and developing the annual budget, Public
Works updates its own annual CIP Plan by assessing and prioritizing existing and emerging
needs throughout the Village. This cross-departmental collaboration and global perspective
are combined with a long-term outlook to provide an effective plan to meet the Village’s
ongoing capital needs.
IMPACT OF CIP ON OPERATING BUDGET
Departments must submit annual updates to the Budget Review Committee as well as new
requests for evaluation and consideration for the CIP. During the budget process,
consideration is given to each CIP project’s impact on operating costs during the upcoming
year as well as future years.
Based on the priorities identified and discussed, most projects requested for Fiscal Year
2026 are comprised primarily of stormwater pump station, drainage improvements, road
resurfacing and equipment purchases, and rehabilitation and improvements to the Village
assets and facilities. These projects improve and increase the level of service provided to
our residents.
In prioritizing the long-term fiscal sustainability of the Village, the Adopted Budget is
structurally balanced. The FY2026 Adopted CIP budget totals $6.2 million. Of the total, $1.4
million is for the General Fund, reflects ongoing commitment to improvements to
infrastructure, parks, fleet, streets, technology and overall enhancements to safety and
esthetics for Miami Shores Village.
