Re: Larry M. Spring, Jr., City Manager Dear Mr. Mayor and City Councilmembers:

Please be advised that the undersigned attorney represents Larry M. Spring, Jr. in reference to his employment with the City of North Miami. Mr. Spring has informed me that the City Council is prepared to terminate him to allow a new City Manager to be appointed. Mr. Spring understands the decision and has no desire to impede the City Council’s ability to have the City Manager of its choosing. While Mr. Spring remains confident that the parting of ways will be done in conformity with both the Charter of the City of North Miami (“City Charter”) and the October 1, 2017 Employment Agreement between the City of North Miami and Larry M. Spring, Jr. (“Employment Agreement”), he has requested that I send this correspondence to ensure that everyone is on the same page and that the process moves forward smoothly.

Pursuant to both the City Charter and the Employment Agreement, Mr. Spring is

entitled to 30 days of notice prior to the effective date of his removal by a preliminary resolution of the City Council. Mr. Spring also has the right to request a public hearing after the adoption of the preliminary resolution by the City Council. Finally, the City Charter in Section 18 provides that “[b]y the preliminary resolution the council may suspend the manager from duty, but shall in any case cause to be paid him forthwith any unpaid balance of his salary and his salary for the next three (3) calendar months following the adoption of the preliminary resolution.” Mr. Spring will agree to streamline the process by waiving his right to a hearing

if the resolution states that the termination is without cause, and the City Council agrees in advance to certain terms, including that he will be paid the three (3) calendar months of salary to which Section 18 of the City Charter refers. Separate from the foregoing, as the City Council is no doubt aware, the Employment Agreement entitles Mr. Spring to twenty (20) weeks of his current salary as severance. Mr. Spring has certain other requests for his severance package that are included on the Terms of Severance sent herewith.

In addition to the Terms of Severance, also sent herewith is a list of accomplishments

of the city’s administration while Mr. Spring has served as City Manager. Obviously, Mr. Spring played a vital role in each and every accomplishment listed on the document, and I trust that each of you is more aware of that fact that I am. We ask that you keep in mind those accomplishments and Mr. Spring’s overall record of service to the City of North Miami in considering his requested Terms of Severance. Should the City agree with the terms that Mr. Spring is proposing on the Terms of Severance, then this matter can be moved forward and concluded expeditiously and to everyone’s satisfaction.

I look forward to the City of North Miami’s prompt response so that both the City and

Mr. Spring can move on to whatever may be next. Should you have any questions or concerns regarding the foregoing or the enclosures sent herewith, please do not hesitate to contact me. Very truly yours,

JOSEPH R. GOSZ

Professional Development (FEBRUARY, 2016)City staff completed customer service and protocol training to enhance the quality of service provided to North Miami residents. Training opportunities were made available through the Personnel Department and Risk Manage-ment. Additionally, leadership training was facilitated by Barry University.

OpenGov (MARCH, 2016)The City launched OpenGov, which is a user-friendly cloud-based solution that transforms how municipal government budgets are presented and encourages community engagement. The objective is to increase public awareness and transparency.

Financial Transparency Portal (MAY, 2016)North Miami’s Citizen Transparency site provides financial transparency to the public with easy access to the city of North Miami’s expenditure, revenue and budget information for the current fiscal year, as well as a historical view of previous years. This interactive website can be used to search details of municipal expenses and revenues by category, department, fund, function, and vendor.

CITY OF NORTH MIAMI ADMINISTRATION’S ACCOMPLISHMENTS

Larry M. Spring, Jr., CPACITY MANAGER M A R C H 2 0 1 6 – P R E S E N T

NorthMiamiFL.gov

Contract Compliance Management (MAY, 2016)City Administration started a process of automation for all City contracts through Laserfiche. As the world’s leading software for content management and business process automation, staff was able to use this software to place 98% of the City’s contracts in an online repository. This process allowed staff to monitor contract expiration dates, renewal options and requirements, as well as rate vendor performance. The most recent addition is the records retention management module.

Emergency Management Division (JUNE, 2016) The Division of Emergency Management (DEM) was created to protect the North Miami community by coordinating and integrating all activities necessary to build, sustain and improve responses to various emergencies. A major accomplishment of this small team was successfully implement-ing the City’s National Incident Management System (NIMS) training course requirement. As a result, approximately 250 City employees received this crucial emergency management training certificate.

Community Council (JULY, 2016)As a result of the police involved shooting that led to national attention, the City Manager established a Community Council. The purpose of the Community Council is to serve as a portal of information between the City and the community, in order to enhance police community relations and policies.

Boat Docks (SEPTEMBER, 2016)The issue of two property owners and their concerns with their boat docks was resolved after lingering since 2015 when “Help Me Howard” reported on the issue.

Building Department (Insourcing) (SEPTEMBER, 2016)For many years, the City’s Building Department was outsourced to a company specializing in building permits and inspections, C.A.P. Government. City Administration was able to save the City a total of $1,090,000 due to insourcing of these services. Inspections in all categories are now performed on a daily basis. In the past, some categories were only inspected twice a week.

all is used then explain the other 2 % ?Last sentence... “recent addition” additions to what the lasfiche serves?

Social Services (OCTOBER, 2016)Social Services, a new division of the Community Planning and Develop-ment Department, was created to provide support and responsive referral services to clients focused on health and wellness, legal services, housing and governmental engagement. This division consists of a Housing and So-cial Services Manager, a Senior Social Services Coordinator, a Social Services Coordinator and two Social Service Aides.

North Miami Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) Extension (DECEMBER, 2016)The Miami-Dade County Commission approved the extension of the life of the North Miami Community Redevelopment Agency.

Utility Billing (2017)City Administration focused on the reorganization and rightsizing of the Utility Billing Division workforce. For the first time in six years, billing was on time for utility services.

Spotmaster (JANUARY, 2017) Spotmaster was an industrial dry cleaning plant located in a commercial district, resulting in numerous complaints from the community for several years. The Administration successfully negotiated the relocation of Spotmaster with minimum litigation cost.

Best Tasting Water on Tap (APRIL, 2017)In North Miami, we continue to provide drinking water that meets and exceeds all local, state and federal requirements. Our efforts have paid off as the city of North Miami has taken first place in the Florida Section of the American Water Works Association (FSAWWA) Region VII, Best Tasting Drinking Water Contest in 2018. This is the second consecutive win for the city of North Miami and fifth win since 2009. In 2017, for the first time in history, North Miami took home the trophy for the Best Tasting Tap Water in the state of Florida and advanced to the national competition ranking in the top 7.

Comprehensive Plan (JULY, 2017)The City adopted the 2017 Land Development Regulations (LDRs) and Zoning Map. Some of the updates to the LDRs and Zoning Map established future development guidelines; eliminate inconsistent standards and excessive regulatory barriers that may hinder economic development; revise and establish new permitting processes; generalize the list of permitted and conditional uses; and enhance neighborhood preservation in light of high-intensity and mixed-use development.

MOCA Reaccreditation (JULY, 2017) MOCA completed a self-study, followed by a site visit as a critical component of the reaccreditation process. Several steps were taken in preparation, such as the passing of amendments to the ordinance related to MOCA, improve-ments to the museum’s infrastructure, approval of CRA funding to renovate the MOCA Courtyard, the appointment of new Board of Trustee members, and the hiring of a MOCA Director. The Accreditation Commission voted to table its decision, allowing the Museum to continue reinventing itself.

North Miami Brewfest (SEPTEMBER, 2017)In 2017, a five-year title agreement was signed by FIU and the city of North Miami to continue the partnership, and use of MOCA Plaza as the event location. The festival premiered in the MOCA Plaza in 2017. North Miami Brewfest featured 120 different craft beers from about 40 brew-ers, craft brewing educational seminars, unlimited craft beer tastings, and live music. In 2017, the #NoMiBrewingDistrict emerged. Two breweries, Descarga Brewing Company and Lost City Brewing, signed leases to set-up shop in Downtown North Miami, near NE 125th Street.

Finance Administration (OCTOBER, 2017) For three consecutive years now, North Miami went beyond the minimum requirements of the generally accepted accounting principles when preparing Comprehensive Annual Financial Reports (CAFR). This report’s purpose is to give confirmation of the spirit of transparency and full disclosure. The Finance Department’s commitment and success in achiev-ing that goal allowed them to once again, after a 12-year gap, attain the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting.

The state of Florida’s Auditor General audited the City’s finances for the Purchasing, Finance, Public Works, and Building departments. Prior to receipt of the Auditor General’s preliminary findings, corrective action had been taken regarding many of the highlighted areas of focus. Though many of these areas pre-date the tenure of current City administration, City staff diligently collaborated in addressing all areas of focus highlighted by the Auditor General.
