1 City Manager North Miami, FL (Population 59,700) Incorporated in 1926, the City of North Miami is located in northeastern Miami- Dade County approximately midway between Fort Lauderdale and the City of Miami. The City of North Miami prides itself on its multicultural nature and diversity is the key to understanding the City. More than 20 nationalities call North Miami home. The largest single group is Haitian at 31% while 23% identify themselves as Hispanic. The City is also home to a very fine art museum, the Museum of Contemporary Art, and two state parks Oleta River State Park and Arch Creek Park. It is an urban city and virtually built-out. North Miami is also the home to two universities: Florida International and Johnson and Wales. It presently has two very new high schools, a new middle school and a new K-8 school. A portion of the City fronts onto Biscayne Bay while the western boundary is a little west of I-95. Housing in the community is now, after the real estate downturn, relatively reasonably priced. Surrounding cities include North Miami Beach, Biscayne Park, Opa-locka and Miami Shores. Miami is not far to the south and Fort Lauderdale is not far to the north. The City is, in fact, midway between Miami International and Fort Lauderdale International Airports. World renowned South Beach is just to the south and the Florida Keys are a bit over an hour further away. Nearby beaches are superb and the outdoor activities are plentiful. More than anything else, North Miami is a stable community with a great deal to offer. North Miami has the necessary infrastructure in place and is poised for dramatic change once the economy improves. A new Comprehensive Plan and new Land Development Regulations have been adopted. As part of the change, the old four story building height has been replaced with 12 story plus heights in the business districts and along some of the major traffic corridors. The CRA covers approximately 60% of the City and it has been used to improve streetscapes and business facades in the downtown. The mixed use Biscayne Landing project (covering 175 acres) was underway and two 25 story condominiums were built before the real estate downturn. In addition to residential, it will include retail, recreational and an Olympic training facility. Unfortunately, it will probably be another 3 to 5 years before the project regains its earlier momentum. It is currently facing a friendly foreclosure.

2 HISTORY AND COMMERCE Although first development activity in the North Miami area was the establishment of a military trail between Fort Lauderdale and Fort Dallas (at the mouth of the Miami River), the City s current history began in 1891 when Mr. Ilhe purchased 80 acres and began farming. At the time, it was thought that his nearest northern neighbor lived in Fort Lauderdale. The Arch Creek Railroad Depot for the Florida East Coast Railroad was built in 1896 and became a commercial hub by By 1912, a small community with a population of less than 100 and composed of eighteen homes, a general store, blacksmith shop, church and two tomato packing plants had developed around the Depot. In the 1920s the Florida land boom spread to Arch Creek community. At the time it was still largely agricultural. In 1926, 38 of the 47 registered voters voted for incorporation and then passed a bond to build sidewalks, water system and a city hall. Later that year, a devastating hurricane caused land speculation to virtually cease. With the end of World War II, military veterans and their families arrived in great numbers. By 1951, North Miami was reported to be one of the fastest growing cities in the United States. In 1953, the City s residents adopted the councilmanager form of government and its current name, the City of North Miami (prior to that, it had been the Town of North Miami.) The City has approximately 2,500 businesses, most of which are small and are retail, professional or service oriented. The City s three largest employers are: 50 State Security (1,000 employees), the City itself (513 employees) and Florida International University (500 employees). For additional information about the City, visit the following: and DEMOGRAPHICS AND CLIMATE Overall, North Miami s population is 35% White, 55% Black, 2% Asian, 5% multiracial and 3% other. As noted, approximately 31% are of Haitian descent and 23% are Hispanic. The City is a young city with a median age of % are under 19 years old, 40% are between 20 and 44, 20% are between 45 and 64 with the remaining 9% being over 65. The City has a tropical climate with an average annual high of 85 o F and a low of 72 o F. Highs from November to April tend to be in the average high 70s to low 80s with average low being in the 60s. The other months of the year are why air conditioning was invented. One should also mention hurricanes. If you are not from Florida, you probably imagine many, miserable storms hitting the state

3 every year. The truth is that hurricanes do come but generally not very often. Miami Dade County has really only been hit by three notable hurricanes since Further, if you are more than 50 miles from the hurricane s center, it will probably not materially affect you. Further, a Category I hurricane is from 75 to 95 miles per hour, not much faster than we routinely drive our cars. THE GOVERNMENT North Miami is a full service city providing building and zoning, code enforcement, library, planning and development, police, parks and recreation, public works, sanitation and water as well as the Museum of Contemporary Art. The City has interlocal agreements with the County to provide fire, wastewater and solid waste disposal. The City s FY2010 general fund budget is $50.2 million with its total budget being $169.3 million. Approximately a third of the City s revenues come from property taxes and the millage for FY 2010 is The City has 513 full-time employees and 131 contract/seasonal employees. North Miami follows the City Manager form of government where the City Manager and City Attorney report to the City Council. The Council is composed of a mayor and four council members who serve staggered, four year terms and are elected by district. The mayor is elected at large and can serve a maximum of two consecutive, two year terms. Elections occur in May of odd numbered years. The City Clerk is also popularly elected. The Council Members are progressive and genuinely have the best interests of the City at heart. The Council has two relatively new members. The mayor and one other council member were elected for the first time in May A third council member was elected in 2007 while the remaining two members were both elected in While the Council Members are still learning to work together, they seem to be collegial and to respect one another. They also respect and support the city staff. Finally, they all believe in staying out of day-to-day operations. During an emergency event, the City Manager also serves as the Emergency Management Director for the City. THE ISSUES First, as with many other cities, particularly in Florida, some belt tightening will be important over the next few years. As a result, more will need to be done with less. The organizational structure and business processes will need to be carefully reviewed. Further, any gaps in accountability will need to be closed. Further, redevelopment is needed. As noted, the City is largely built out so its future lies in redeveloping and upgrading what is already in place.

4 THE IDEAL CANDIDATE North Miami is a great opportunity for the right person. The ideal candidate will have a track record of achievement. The individual will be a strong, energetic, hard working, progressive and aggressive manager, someone who will partner with the Council to make the City all it can be. The candidate will have a can do attitude and see possibilities where others see stumbling blocks. The next manager will understand the complexities involved in working with a very diverse community. Additionally, the individual will have excellent analytical skills and a strong background in finance. The candidate will understand the processes but will question them and be willing to make changes. The individual will be a problem solver, will be open and will value transparency. Being able to develop a good rapport with the press is also important. With a relatively new Council, the manager will need to be someone who can work collaboratively and assist the elected officials in achieving their common vision. EDUCATIONAL REQUIREMENTS The position requires a bachelor s degree in business administration, public administration, public policy or related field. A master s degree is preferred. EXPERIENCE REQUIREMENTS Five years experience as a City or County Manager is desired but assistant managers and other high level public or private experience will be strongly considered. Prior management experience in politically complex situations is a must. Experience in culturally diverse communities and in an urban environment is a plus.
