An Ordinance related to a request for an amendment to the City of South Miami
Comprehensive Future Land Use Map, amending the Agency owned property assemblage
generally referred to as the Marshall Williamson properties (Madison Square
redevelopment west), folio numbers 09-4025-000-0850; 09-4025-000-0852; and 09-4025-065-
0090, from the current land use designation of Single-Family Residential to Multi-Family
Residential, to allow for additional residential dwelling units within the Madison Square
Mixed-Use Development Project.
BACKGROUND
The subject application is a Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map amendment being
initiated by the City (Local Planning Agency) as a small scale Future Land Use Map amendment.
The amendment proposed is the result of a request from the South Miami Community
Redevelopment Agency (SMCRA) Board at their June 10,2013 meeting, that the 0.92 acres of
property acquired by the CRA in 2009-2010 should be used as a site for additional multi-family
affordable/workforce housing. The site consists of three lots on the south side of SW 64 Terrace
surrounding the historic Williamson House located at 6500 SW 60th Avenue.
At their June 10,2013 Board meeting, the SMCRA Board approved the following motion:
SMCRA Board Approved Motion #2 -"Authorization for the SMCRA to submit a request to
the City of South Miami Planning & Zoning Board to amend existing land-use and zoning of the
Historic Marshall Williamson site (Folio #'s 09-4025-000-0850; 09-4025-000-0852 and 09-4025-
065-0090) from and existing RS-4 Residential Zoning District to an RM-18 Multi-Family Zoning
District; and from an existing Single-Family land-use category to a Multi-Family Residential
land-use category.
It was recognized that the existing land use map category of Single-Family Residential and the
RS-4 zoning district would not permit any form of housing except single-family. The objective of
maximizing affordable housing in the CRA in conjunction with the previously approved Madison
Square mixed use development project, would necessitate a map amendment on these properties
to a multi-family category. The Planning and Zoning Department staff worked with CRA staff on
the land use and companion zoning amendments to the facilitate the Madison Square project,
with the idea that these Agency owned parcels could be used for additional residential units.

At the August 7, 2012 City Commission meeting, the Commission approved Ordinance 10-12-
2126 effectively converting the remaining Madison Square development properties to a unified
Future Land Use designation of Mixed-Use Commercial Residential. In December 2012 the City
Commission also approved the rezoning of the Madison Square property assemblage from NR -
Neighborhood Retail, to SR -Specialty Retail for the development of approximately 35 units in a
mixed use project. This current request is to amend the future land use map category from Single-
family Residential (2-story), to Multiple Family Residential (4-story). It is important to note that
while the proposed land use is a 4-story category, the companion zoning amendment to an RM-18
Low Density Multi-Family district, which is the subject of the another application for these
properties, is limited to 2-stories and a maximum density of 18 units per acre. Given the site area
of approximately 40,000 square feet (0.92 acres), the project could potentially gain up to an
additional 16 residential units (Figure 1 & Figure 2). ..

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT: GENERAL INFORMATION
1560
~
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
State Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO -formerly DCA). This amendment qualifies
as an expedited small-scale amendment and therefore DEO will not review or comment upon the
application unless a compliance protest is filed within a specified time period.

Page 4 0/6
The review process for Ii 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.
PROPOSED FUTURE LAND USE MAP AMENDMENT
The subject proposed future land use amendment will remove the current Single Family
Residential (2-Story) land use category and replace it with Multiple Family Residential (4-Story)
category.
The following limitations of the Multiple Family Residential (4-Story) category will be applicable
to the three properties identified as the Community Redevelopment Area Affordable Housing Site
(adjacent to the Historic Williamson home at 6500 SW 60th Avenue):
1. The site must be developed with either affordable town home units or affordable multi-
family units, in conjunction with the Madison Square Mixed-Use Development;
2. The maximum height permitted will be two stories, based on the companion zoning
amendment application and Section 20-3.5 (D) Properties Abutting Single-Family Zoning
Districts:
(1) Notwithstanding the dimensional requirements of the zoning use district in which a
property is located, if that property is abutting (common border or separated by a right-
of-way) to a single-family zoning district the maximum height of any new building or any
vertical addition to an existing building on that property is limited to two stories,
however, additional height may be obtained via the special use permit process as set
forth in Section 20-5.8;
3. The maximum residential density will be 24 units per acre. However, the companion
zoning amendment application limits the maximum residential density of 18 units per
acre.

1. Compatibility of Use: The property is surrounded on three sides by single-family zoning
districts. The use of that property for affordable multi-family housing or townhomes would
be a compatible land use.
2. Compatibility of DensitylHeight: The property size is 0.92 acres. The maximum number of
residential units that could be built on the site would be 18 (based on the proposed zoning).
The height limit for any development on the site is two stories. The development site is
clearly transitional due to the school use to the west and single family uses to east and
therefore the proposed land use category would be compatible.
3. Impact on Public Facilities: An important element ofa future land use map amendment is to
assess the impact of the change on the public infrastructure serving the site. This includes the
impact (plus or minus) of the proposed change in land use for parks, potable water, sewers,
schools, roadways, and solid waste. The Planning and Zoning Department is currently
preparing a comparative chart demonstrating the projected impact on public facility capacities
of the subject land use change. This data report is required to be included in the submittal
package that goes to the Department of Economic Opportunity. The report will require
consultation with developers engineers to complete. The data chart will be ready to be
included in the City Commission agenda package prior to the second reading/public hearing
on the amendment.
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 1
Objective 1.1
Policy 1.1.2
To maintain and improve the City's neighborhoods, and the quality of
life of existing andfuture residents.
The City shall implement its Future Land Use Plan Map through its land
development regulations. Uses that are inconsistent with community
character as set forth on the Future Land Use Map shall be
eliminated ...... .
In reviewing proposed amendments to this plan and the Zoning Map,
compatibility with adjacent uses shall be the major determinant.
HOUSING ELEMENT
Objective 1.3
Policy 1.3.3
The City and its Community Redevelopment Agency shall continue to
coordinate with public and private agencies to meet the affordable
housing needs of low and moderate income residents through the
implementation of specific programs, in accordance with adopted plans.
The City's Community Redevelopment Agency will implement its
New Housing Program in order to provide for the construction of
affordable housing units in accordance with its adopted Redevelopment
Plan.

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-4 Single Family Residential will need to be changed to the proposed new zoning
use district ofRM-18 Low Density Multifamily Residential (2-storyIl8 units per acre).

discussion between the board, staff, applicant, and the public, the board adopted a motion by a
vote of 3 ayes and 2 nays, to recommend approval of the proposed future land use map
amendment.
It is recommended that the proposed Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map (FLUM)
amendment from Single-Family Residential (2-Story) to Multiple Family Residential (4-Story)

Chris,
As a follow-up e-mail correspondence sent on June 13, 2013 (See Exhibit A), please accept the
attached SMCRA Board authorized land-use and zoning amendment application.
As indicated in the June 13,2013 e-mail correspondence, the Community Redevelopment Agency

09-4025-000-0852 and 09-4025-065-0090.
The above listed properties are currently zoned RS-4 Residential with a corresponding land-use
designation of Single-Family Residential. The attached application requests a zoning change from
RS-4 Residential to RM-18 Multi-Family Residential and from an existing land-use designation of
Single-Family Residential to Multi-Family Residential.
Please note that the official June 10, 2013 SMCRA Board Meeting minutes have yet to be
completed however, confirmation of the two (2) unanimously approved SMCRA Board motions
authorizing submittal of special-use and land-use related applications to the City's Planning &
Zoning Department may be obtained from the Office of the City Clerk/SMCRA Secretary.
In light of related project deadlines including submittal of a tax credit application to the Florida
Housing Finance Corporation, the attached request is time sensitive in nature. If you have

Applicant: Oscar Sol (Project Developer) and Luigl Vitalini (Project Architect)
Mr. Sol stated that they were selected by the CRA board for this project and gathered feedback
from the different stakeholders such as the City, staff, elected officials, area residents and
community groups. He stated next that what became apparent was that there were conflicting and
various ideas as to the development of this property. He then stated that some groups expressed
the desire for greater density, others were of the opinion to higher than four stories and no less,
and others shared a concern for a limited height adjacent to single family homes. He stated that
they tried to comply with the many requests and find the right balance.
Mr. Vitalini gave a brief presentation of the project to the Board.
Mr. Sol stated that one apartment building and two small houses will be demoed in the area in
order to implement this project. Mr. Vitalini stated that it is important to note that retail will be
located along sixty-Fourth Street which was one of the requests that was largely expressed by
everyone. Mr. Sol stated that what they are proposing will consist of one bedroom units, two
bedroom units, and three bedroom units built with a total of forty-one units. Mr. Brimo stated
that the rent is regulated by the Miami-Dade County Area Median Income (AMI) which adjusts
annually; if the project is not built in the time frame that has been set the amount may increase or
decrease. Mr. Sol stated that this formula is used by the State of Florida and Miami-Dade County
Housing and Urban Development (HUD) based on the annual incomes of the families. Mr. James
McCants, the CRA Outreach Coordinator stated that there are a total of eight displaced families
that will be relocated with the aid of the CRA. He also stated that they will be given first priority
in choosing to move back once this project is complete. ~r. Sol stated that the commercial retail
. that will be located on the first floor will be geared to promote jobs within the CRA area and
encourage the residents to shop and receive services within the neighborhood opposed to
travelling a number of miles away.
The Chairman opened the public hearing.
Deltravis Williams 6510 SW 58 th Place Support
He stated that this has been a very tedious process almost three decades of trying to get projects
such as Madison Square, Murray Park Pool and others completed. He also stated that what is
currently being proposed he and other residents are in favor of. He stated next that affordable
housing is very much needed within South Miami and several people have moved away due to a
lack thereof. He then stated that he implores the Board to recommend this proposal.
The Chairman closed the public hearing.

buildings that face 64th Street only. Mr. Carreras seconded the motion.
