DEVELOPMENT, MANAGEMENT, AND OPERATION OF HAULOVER PARK SUMMARY Introduction Miami-Dade Park and Recreation & Open Spaces (PROS) services approximately 25 million people per year, who use County parks, attend County events, and participate in County programs. PROS is one of the busiest and largest leisure service agencies in the United States and is the first park and recreation agency in the State of Florida to receive the Governor's Sterling Award (2009), which recognizes organizations and businesses in Florida that have successfully achieved performance excellence within their management and operations. For additional information on PROS, please visit their website at http://www.miamidade.gov/parks . Haulover Park is a heritage park and a significant coastal beach park operated by Miami-Dade County. Historically, the Park has served, since the late 1940’s, residents and visitors from the central and northern portions of the County seeking a natural tropical setting for swimming, fishing, picnicking, boating and other leisure activities. The Park is over one mile in length located between Sunny Isles to the north and spectacular Bal Harbour to the south and occupies land adjacent to both the Atlantic Ocean and Biscayne Bay, with the only ocean access (Haulover Cut) from downtown Miami’s Government Cut to Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale. Haulover Park is one of the most important and valuable assets in the County Park System, not only from a cultural heritage perspective, but also its comparable real estate value of $xxx million. Miami-Dade County (County), as represented by the Miami-Dade County Parks, Recreation, and Open Spaces Department (PROS), is soliciting proposals from qualified firms, corporations, joint ventures, partnerships, individuals, or other legal entities (Proposers) to design, develop, construct, and later assume management, programming, and operation of built Facilities at Haulover Park. Facilities may include restaurants, pier, beach and inter-coastal concessions, marina, boat ramps, parking garage, vehicular/pedestrian circulation, and other related amenities and infrastructure to support the proposed development within the Haulover Park area. The selected Proposer, either as one entity or as an aggregate of entities, must have successful foodservice, fishing, beach, marina, boat ramp, and parking garage management, operations, and marketing experience; as well as successful experience in any additional proposed Element. The selected Proposer must also possess adequate financial capacity to manage, operate, and maintain each proposed Element year-round. Though the County will maintain ownership of the land, retain an interest in all Elements and their operations, as well as derive financial remuneration from them, each Element will be privately managed. Therefore, each Proposer must take into account the long-range costs and responsibilities of managing, operating, and maintaining the Elements. The County anticipates awarding an Agreement for up to fifty (50) years period for the turn-key development, management, and operation of all proposed Haulover Park Elements which includes, but may not be limited to, all design, permitting, platting, construction, construction management, operation, business planning, maintenance, management, etc., subject to County review and approval. The County, at its sole discretion, may renew the Agreement for up to two (2) additional (20) year periods. County Intent and Objectives The primary development objective for Haulover Park is to partner with a Contractor who shares a commitment to design excellence and possesses the capacity to finance and build truly beautiful park elements and facilities for public use. The design should be groundbreaking, transformational for the community and PROS, and sets new standards in the Park and Recreation industry. PROS is a national leader and what is built should be nothing less than extraordinary, applying design principles that are time tested in parks throughout the country that will endure as iconic, functional, and aesthetically pleasing for decades to come. 7 ! #" R 0 3 $ $ * '$ 8 *8 & & "" ' / $ " / $ !
