RE: Marina Management Agreement
Dear Mr. SCh~: J(ir.b;'
According to the contract between Monroe County and the MEDC, #5c, the MEDC must
submit to the County an annual audit performed by a CPA no later than three months
after the end of each County fiscal year (year ends September 30). The CPA should be
an independent accountant who has not been involved with the marina and who is not a
member of the MEDC.
In addition, I have attached a memo written by the County's Office of Management and
Budget Director, John Carter, whichl would like you to address. I'm sure that John
would be willing to meet if you have any questions about his request.
Please provide this information to me at your earliest opportunity. Thanks.

Director, OMB
Subject:
Marathon Marina
cc:
Sandra Carlile
James L. Roberts
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Each month, an audit slip to authorize payment to the Marathon Economic Development
Council, Inc. is routed through my office. I have confined my review to whether there is
sufficient budget to make the payment each month. However, I have noted that the attached
documents do not include any standard financial statements, but rather include several
worksheets that finance uses to support issuing a check.
Although the supporting documentation is sufficient for issuing a monthly check, it is not
sufficient for proper management and monitoring of the marina operations. It is particularly
troublesome to not be able to see how the cash flows are handled, what the gross profit margins
for goods and services sold are, and whether revenue growth trends show that the taxpayer
subsidy can ever be expected to phase out.
Since Monroe County taxpayers are effectively "silent partners" in this venture, the BOCC
should receive basic, standard financial statements, including a proper income statement, balance
sheet, and statement of changes in fmancial position (cash flow). I understand that the Marathon
Marina uses the services of a Certified Public Accountant. Therefore these fundamental
fmancial statements should be relatively easy to produce and I respectfully request that these
statements be provided to the County.

MEMO SENT VIA FAX
I'd like to follow up on the diICUlsion we had this morning about the discrepancy
in the figures reported to the County by the MEDC in their revenue and expense
stat8ments for the period ended 9130199 and the figures reported by the CPA' I
audit for the same period.
The MEDC reported that tbey paid S31, 173 for "Professional Fees" for the period.
Tbe auditor reports that they paid $'0,641 for uMarina Manager and Grant Writer"
and S13,11S for "Professional Fees". Theae two items added together total
$63,756.
The MEDC reports total expenses in all categories for the period of$88A21.
The auditor reports total expenses in all catepioa for the period of 5123,109, a
difference of $34,688. Why did the MEDC under-report to the County expenses
totaling nearly $35,000 for their tint 8 months of operation?
Is it possible that money was paid to individuals in the form of professional fees or
salaries that was not reported to the County?
I feel an answer to this question needs to be forthcomiul as soon u pollible. The
best way to find this answer would be to request from the CPA firm who did the
audit a breakdown of the checks paid out by the MEDC that comprise the
categories of "Marina Manager and Grant Writer" and "Professional Fees" and that
total $63.1'6. lbis breakdown should list each check, the payee and the amount
paid. This should be readily available from the CPA's worksheets.

RE:
Florida Keys Marina, Marathon
Audit
In response to my June 5, 2000 memo regarding the above, you posed three questions. The following
responses are offered.
I) The contract does not specifically say whether the audit should be of the MEDC or the marina
operation. I will contact the County Attorney and County Clerk for their opinion.
2) The audit does not appear to cover the depositing of marine revenue in the County's account. Again,
we will confer with the County Attorney and County Clerk for their opinion
3) Finally, we had the same question you had regarding an agreement with the County to repay money
initially used as part of the marina start-up expenses. We looked into this when we first began
receiving invoices from the MEDC. After checking with the County Attorney's office we learned that
repaying start-up costs using part of the monthly management fee was agreed to.
By copy of this memo we are requesting the County Attorney and County Clerk to comment on the issues
raised.

TO: Danny Kolhage

FROM: Pat Blaney, Internal Auditor
SUBJECT: Marathon EDC/Florida Keys Marina
DATE: July 5, 2000
After attempting to reconcile the Marathon EDC audit figures to the monthly revenue and
expenditure reports accompanying the EDC's invoices, it appears that the audit must cover
other activities besides Florida Keys Marina. To reconcile the EDC figures to the Marina
would require, at a minimum, the answers to the following questions:
What other activities did the EDC conduct during this audit period?
What did these other activities cost?
How much revenue did they produce?
Note 5 to the financial statements mentions a $60,000 line of credit, against which $20,000
was initially borrowed. The monthly expenditure reports show repayment of principal totaling
$20,000 to Sept. 30, the end of the audit period. Yet, at that point principal outstanding was
$8,210. This raises the following questions:
What was the gross amount of money borrowed against the line of credit
during the audit period?
Were any borrowed funds used for activities other than the marina?
What specifically were the borrowed funds spent on?
Who's the lender?
You may also want to ask the provider of the monthly revenue and expenditure reports what
the sources of those figures are.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Danny Kolhage
Clerk of the Circuit Court
FROM: Pat Blaney, Internal Auditor
SUBJECT: Marathon EDC/Florida Keys Marina
DATE: July 5, 2000
After attempting to reconcile the Marathon EDC audit figures to the monthly revenue and
expenditure reports accompanying the EDC' s invoices, it appears that the audit must cover
other activities besides Florida Keys Marina. To reconcile the EDC figures to the Marina
would require, at a minimum, the answers to the following questions:
What other activities did the EDC conduct during this audit period?
What did these other activities cost?
How much revenue did they produce?
Note 5 to the financial statements mentions a $60,000 line of credit, against which $20,000
was initially borrowed. The monthly expenditure reports show repayment of principal totaling
$20,000 to Sept. 30, the end of the audit period. Yet, at that point principal outstanding was
$8,210. This raises the following questions:
What was the gross amount of money borrowed against the line of credit
during the audit period?
Were any borrowed funds used for activities other than the marina?
What specifically were the borrowed funds spent on?
Who's the lender?
You may also want to ask the provider of the monthly revenue and expenditure reports what
the sources of those figures are.

Dear Dave:
In response to the conversations that we have had concerning the audit of the Florida Keys
Marina, I have asked my Internal Audit Department to do a cursory analysis of the audit in
relation to the montWy reports that are filed pursuant to the contract.
I am enclosing herewith a copy of a memorandum to me from Pat Blalney of my Internal Audit
Department together with a spread sheet which outlines his review. Mr. Blaney raises several
questions as a result of his analysis which you as the contract manager should pursue.
I apologize for the delay in getting this information to you, however; my internal audit staff has
been very busy the last several months on other matters.
Should you have any further questions concerning this matter, please do not hesitate to contact
me.
Sincerely yours,
-\d~ ·

Dear Mr. Roberts:
On August 21, the board of directors of the Marathon Economic Development Council (MEDC)
directed termination of the management agreement with Monroe County as of close of business
August 31, 2001. This decision was made in anticipation of the transfer of the Florida Keys
Marina property to the City of Marathon.
We appreciate the opportunity that the County has awarded the MEDC to serve our cOmmunity by
developing the Marina over the past several years. We are prepared to assist the City and County to
accomplish a smooth and efficient transition to City management effective September 1. We hope
the outstanding grants and project commitments will transfer unencumbered.
Thank you for your assistance over the past years.
Sincerely yours,
~~
President

Mr. Wrathell:
We were very disappointed that the Board of County Commissioners, in their last meeting, did
not decide on a time frame for the proper noticing of the non-appropriation clause of our
management agreement. It now appears this will take a little more time to settle out legal
interpretations before any assurance of timing. We are still planning for an August 31st transition
date \1pon which we will turn over the management of the Marina to the City.
It was suggested at the August 1,2001 Council Meeting, that the MEDC join with the City staff
as a transition team to promote a smooth transfer. On July 18,2001, we sent a letter to you
requesting a meeting including several attempts by Marina Manager DeLashmutt asking Mr.
Adams for a planning meeting with the MEDC. We feel that it is critical to resolve key issues or
points requiring negotiation and detailed discussions. Perhaps we should meet to finalize a
transition. Absent this, we will continue moving in a direction of an orderly termination of our
agreement and a potential halt of Marina public services at the close of business on August 31,
2001.
Sincerely yours,
~.~

Dear Mr. Kohlage:
The Marathon Economic Development Council, as a management entity, is
required by our management agreement with the County to perform annual audits
by a CPA no later than 3 months after the end of each fiscal year. The agreement
as written, does not stipulate any close out audit requirements. However, we have
just recently retained and auditor to conduct a fmal audit up to the date of our
agreement termination of August 31, 2001. This particular audit will cover a
period of eleven months and will be sent to you as soon as it is completed. It is not
expected to take longer than three months to complete.
If you have any concerns or questions regarding out closeout audit, please contact
Mr. Bruce Popham at (305) 743-6341.
Sincerely,
