| | | |
| | | | | | | | RECOMMENDATION
| | The Administration recommends that the Mayor and City Commission authorize the execution of Amendment No. 4, extending the Agreement with Deco Bike, LLC, on a month-to-month basis, for a period of up to fourteen (14) months, or until such time as the City Commission awards an agreement pursuant to a new competitive solicitation for a Self-Service Bicycle Sharing Program, whichever is earlier. |
| | | |
| | | | | | | | BACKGROUND/HISTORY
| On January 28, 2009, the Mayor and City Commission adopted Resolution No. 2009- 26993, authorizing the Administration to enter into negotiations with Deco Bike, LLC, as the top-ranked proposer under Request for Proposal (RFP) No. 44. 07/08.
On July 15, 2009, pursuant to the RFP, the City entered into a Concession Agreement with Deco Bike for the delivery and operation of a self-service bicycle rental fleet for public use to be stationed in the public right-of-way for a term of five (5) years from the Operational Rollout Date, which City and Concessionaire agreed and acknowledged occurred on March 14, 2011.
On July 18, 2012, the Mayor and City Commission adopted Resolution No. 2012- 27975, approving Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement, extending the term of the Agreement through September 30, 2023, increasing the operational ceiling to 1,100 bicycles on a Citywide basis, modifying the financial terms, and approving certain advertisements and sponsorships.
On May 12, 2015, the City and Deco Bike executed Amendment No. 2 to the Agreement, approving the sponsorship with Citibank to operate under the program name of "Citi Bike".
On December 11, 2019, the Mayor and City Commission adopted Resolution No. 2019-31105, authorizing the City Manager to negotiate an amendment to the Agreement between the City and Deco Bike for the provision of a docked electric-assisted bicycle sharing pilot program ("Pilot Program"), subject to the City Commission's approval of the final amendment.
On June 23, 2021, the Mayor and City Commission adopted Resolution No. 2021- 31743, approving Amendment No. 3 to the Agreement, with said amendment approving the implementation, management and operation of a one-year Pilot Program for the operation of up to 100 docked electric assisted bicycles Citywide within the existing Concession Areas. |
| | | |
| | | | | | | | ANALYSIS
| The current Agreement with Deco Bike will expire on September 30, 2023, and the Administration seeks to extend the term of this Agreement to be coterminous with that of the Citibank naming rights agreement which expires on December 31, 2024. Additionally, to maintain and promote cross-jurisdictional ridership and operability, it may be beneficial for the Agreement to be extended to run parallel with the City of Miami’s Agreement with Deco Bike, which will also expire December 31, 2024. |
| | | |
| | | | | | | | SUPPORTING SURVEY DATA
| | Based on the 2022 Resident Survey, over half (51.2%) of households regularly ride a bicycle. Additionally, when asked which types of transportation they would consider most viable as an alternative to using a car for trips within Miami Beach, 37.2% of survey respondents reported bicycles. |
| | | |
| | | | | | | | FINANCIAL INFORMATION
| | The Deco Bike Agreement generates revenue for the City on an average of $55,000.00 per month. A 14-month extension would result in approximately $770,000.00 in total revenue |
| | | |
| | | | | | | | CONCLUSION
| | The Administration recommends that the Mayor and City Commission approve the Resolution and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk, to execute Amendment No. 4 to the Agreement with Deco Bike executed pursuant to Request for Proposals (RFP) No. 44-07/08. The current term of the Agreement expires on September 30, 2023, and the proposed amendment would extend the Agreement on a month-to-month basis, for an additional period of up to fourteen (14) months or until such time as the City Commission awards an Agreement pursuant to a new competitive solicitation for the Bicycle Sharing Program, whichever is earlier. |
