13South Miami pp•AmeHCaCiry CITY OF SOUTH MIAMI OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER INTER - OFFICE MEMORANDUM 2001 To: The Honorable Mayor Stoddard and Members of the City Commission Via: Buford R. "Randy" Witt, Acting City Manager /? 0 • Q�• From: Thomas J. Vageline, Director Planning and Zoning Departmen Date: July 27, 2010 ITEM No. Subiect An Ordinance of the Mayor and City Commission of the City of South Miami Florida, amending the Future Land Use Map of the South Miami Comprehensive Plan by changing the future land use category from Single - Family Residential (Two - Story) to Parks and Open Space for the property identified as Dison Park located at 8051 SW 58 Avenue (Folio No. 09- 4036 - 000 - 0520); providing for severability; providing for ordinances in conflict; and providing an effective date. SUMMARY OF REQUEST The subject application PB -10 -015 for a Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map amendment is being initiated by the City (Local Planning Agency) as a small scale Future Land Use Map amendment. The City owned property is scheduled for infrastructure improvements in the City's Capital Improvement Plan (2009 - 2013). The appropriate land use category and zoning district should be in place before improvements are started. The subject property has a current Future Land Use Map designation of Single- Family Residential(Two- Story). The property will become a neighborhood park with very limited recreational activities. The appropriate Future Land Use Map Category will be Parks and Open Space. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT: GENERAL INFORMATION A change in the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map can be initiated by a property owner, the Local Planning Agency and the City Commission. An amendment to the City's Comprehensive Plan Document or the Future Land Use Map requires the adoption of an ordinance by the City Commission after receiving a recommendation from the City's Local Planning Agency (Planning Board). Following adoption of the application by the City Commission (second reading of the ordinance) the application package is then submitted to the Florida Department of Community Affairs (DCA). This amendment qualifies as a small -scale amendment and therefore DCA will not review or comment upon the application unless a compliance protest is fled within a specified time period. 2 The review process for a Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map amendment differs from the process used to review zoning district changes, variances, and site plans. A future land use map amendment review is concerned with the following basic issues: 1) compatibility of the proposed use with surrounding uses; 2) compatibility of the proposed density and height to the limits contained in the Plan and to the immediate neighborhood; 3) impact of the proposed use on the City's infrastructure; and 4) is the amendment compatible with and does it advance the City's objectives and policies contained in the Comprehensive Plan. RECENT HISTORY OF THE SITE Ms. Charlotte Dison, the owner of the park site and also a single family home .south of the proposed park, offered to sell the vacant portion of her property (0.60 acre) to the City if a commitment was made to develop the land into a neighborhood park. The City received a significant portion of the acquisition cost from County and State of Florida grant programs. The City completed the purchase of the property at 8051 SW 58 Avenue in 2009. The purpose of the acquisition was to preserve open space and to provide limited recreational activities for the neighborhood. A Miami -Dade County grant has been reserved for the City to implement improvements. PROPOSED AMENDMENT REVIEW The subject proposed amendment for 8051 SW 58 Avenue (Dison Park). The City owned property is now scheduled for infrastructure improvements in the City's Capital Improvement Plan (2009 - 2013). The appropriate land use category and zoning district should be in place before improvements are started. A small scale Future Land Use Map Amendment for Dison Park requires a change to the Parks and Open Space Category. SITE ANALYSIS Parcels Comprehensive Plan Land Development Code Actual Use Existing Land Use Existing Zoning District Category North Single Family RS -3 Single family homes Residential East Single Family RS -3 Single family homes Residential South Single Family RS -3 Single family homes Residential West Single Family RS -3 Single family homes Residential 1. Compatibility of Use: The property is located in the center of a single - family zoning district. The creation of a neighborhood park serving local area residents is compatible land use. 2. Compatibility of Densi"eight: The property size is 0.60 acres. The existing land use map category and the existing zoning district would allow for two one or two story homes to be built if the property was re- platted and developed. The proposed future land use map category will only allow for a park. 3. Impact on Public Facilities: An important element of a future land use map amendment is to assess the impact of the change on the public infrastructure serving the site. For purposes of this report, presented below is a summary of the projected impact of the proposed land use map category on public facility capacity. a) Park/Recreation Facilities Level of Service (LOS): City Comprehensive Plan: 4 acres per 1,000 pop. A total of 0.60 acres will be added to City's recreation and open space inventory which assists the City to maintain the required Level of Service. Coneurrency Fee — None b) Schools 0 students; No impact. c) Solid Waste 0 lbs /day; No impact. d) Wastewater (Sewer) 0 gallons /per day; No impact e) Potable Water 0 gallons /per day; No impact f) Traffic /Streets 0 trips added; No impact Capacity: sufficient: insignificant traffic, no impact on surrounding roadways. 4. Compatible with Comprehensive Plan. A proposed Future Land Use Map Amendment should be compatible with and advance the goals and policies contained in the City's Comprehensive Plan. The proposed amendment is consistent with and supports the following goals and policies: LAND USE ELEMENT Goal I To maintain and improve the City's neighborhoods, and the quality of life of existing and, future residents. Policy 1.1.2 In reviewing proposed amendments to this plan and the Zoning Map, compatibility with adjacent uses shall be the major determinant. RECREATION AND OPEN SPACE ELEMENT GOAL 1 To ensure the availability of adequate park facilities and open space for citizens of South Miami. 4 FUTURE REZONING The approval of the proposed Future Land Use Map amendment is a pre- requisite for a future zoning district change, which will implement the Future Land Use Category. The current zoning district of "RS -3" Low - Density Residential will need to be changed to the "PR ", Parks and Recreation Zoning District. STAFF OBSERVATIONS 1. The proposed amendment is consistent with the goals and policies of the City's Comprehensive Plan. 2. The amendment is needed in order to accurately reflect the location of City parks on the Future Land Use Map and to maintain and protect the City's inventory of recreation and open space. 3. The land use amendment and a subsequent zoning district change will formally recognize the City's efforts and citizen participation in assuring the protection of green open space. and the creation of a neighborhood park. 4. The impact of the proposed land use map category change will be insignificant as it pertains to public facilities including traffic, waste collection, water and sewers. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the proposed Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map (FLUM) amendment from the "Single Family Residential" Land Use Map category to the "Parks and Open Space" category for 8051 SW 58 Avenue (bison Park) be approved.

Planning Board Applications/Public Hearings PB -10 -015 Applicant: City of South Miami Location: 8051 SW 58 Avenue An Ordinance of the Mayor and City Commission of the City of South Miami Florida, amending the Future Land Use Map of the South Miami Comprehensive Plan by changing the future land use category from Single - Family Residential (Two - Story) to Parks and Open Space for the property identified as Dison Park located at 8051 SW 58 Avenue (Folio No. 09- 4036 - 000 - 0520); providing for severability; providing for ordinances in conflict; and providing an effective date. Planning Board Meeting June 15, 2010 Page 2 of 2 Action: Mrs. Young read the item into the record. Mr. Youkilis stated that the item is a technical change that has resulted from a new city park that was established. The Future Land Use category does not match the use and State law requires that a city must keep its Future Land Use Map up to date. The piece of property is the Dison property, which is a little more than half an acre. The City received an offer from the property owner to sell the property to the City if the city would establish it as a park in perpetuity. The City bought the property with a number of grants from the County and State and the purchase was complete in 2009. The purpose was to preserve open space and provide limited recreation activities. If the property had remained as a Single - family residential you could have as much as two homes built on the property. The amendment will have no affect on the infrastructure and it is compatible with the Comprehensive Plan. In the future, the zoning will need to be changed. Staff recommends that the location be changed to Parks and Open Space category. The Chair opened the public hearing. No speakers. The Chair closed the public hearing. Mrs. Beckman commented that Mrs. Dison previously mentioned that she would like to name the park Jacks Patch after her husband who passed away. Mrs. Beckman questioned if by approving the item would that prevent the name change. Mr. Vageline replied that the City Commission could change the name. Mrs. Young questioned the term "limited recreational activities" Mrs. Stout -Tate responded that there will be a survey going out in July 2010; the survey is to obtain feed back of the neighbors on appropriate recreational activities. She commented that this is a passive park for residents and there will be no structures built. Motion: Mr. Morton moved to approve the application as presented. Mrs. Young seconded.
