SUBJECT:

DISCUSSION REGARDING A POTENTIAL PARK SHARE PILOT IN MIAMI BEACH


HISTORY:

At the February 14, 2018 Commission meeting, item was dually referred to the Transportation, Parking and Bicycle Pedestrian Facilities Committee and the Neighborhood/Community Affairs Committee.


ANALYSIS:

Park sharing is a private parking space rental concept currently in use by cities across the US to alleviate parking concerns in their cities.  This concept may be well received by residents and tourists of Miami Beach alike.

 

Transportation, Parking, Bicycle-Pedestrian Facilities Committee - Recommendations:

 

On April 9th, the Transportation, Parking & Bicycle-Pedestrian Facilities Committee (TPBPFC) met and unanimously passed the following motion regarding Park Share:

 

The TPBPFC endorses the Park Share concept for commercial businesses only.  Furthermore, the TPBPFC strongly recommends the following:

 

  • City should not endorse nor utilize services of any park sharing operations in any city garage or surface lots

  • City should pass legislation forbidding the use of Park Share type operations at single family homes

                                                           

 



CONCLUSION:
The Administration is seeking guidance regarding the Park Share concept.
