On March 18, 2020, the Mayor and Commission approved referral item no. C4 P entitled, "Discuss A Pilot Program With Curbflow, Inc. For Realtime Curb Access Management of Commercial and On-Demand Operators At No Cost To The City Of Miami Beach" to the Finance and Economic Resiliency Committee for discussion.

Curbflow provides a reservation platform for purveyors to secure brief time slots at designated delivery zones to perform their delivery. Curbflow assesses a fee to the purveyors for said service which results in no expense to the City.

Curbflow has state-of-the-art technology to monitor and assist the City in managing curbside availability through digitized loading zones, enforcement, and automated analytics.
