15South Miami bOd CITY OF SOUTH MIAMI OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM qrrp To: The Honorable Mayor Stoddard and Members of the City Commission . Via: From: Steven J. Alexander, City M~a;/ Christopher Brimo, AICP -e17 Planning Director Date: September 3,2013 ITEM No. I An Ordinance related to a request for a zoning map amendment to the City of South Miami official zoning map, to re-zone the Agency owned property assemblage 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 a current zoning designation of "RS-4" (Single-Family) to the "RM-18" (Low Density Multi-Family Residential) to allow for additional residential dwelling units within the Madison Square Mixed-Use Development Project. BACKGROUND The South Miami Community Redevelopment Agency (SMCRA) Board at its June 10, 2013 meeting received a report from the Agency Director proposing that the Planning and Zoning Department be requested to initiate the process of rezoning the approximately 0.92 acre Marshall Williamson property that is owned by the CRA, for inclusion in the Madison Square development project. This property acquired by the CRA in 2009-2010, should be used as a site for additional multi-family affordable/workforce housing. The property lies to the west of the main development site, along SW 60 Avenue and consists of three lots on the south side of SW 64 Terrace surrounding the historic Williamson House located at 6500 SW 60th Avenue (Figure 1). 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 ofthe 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. 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 request is to rezone the property just west ofSW 60th Avenue from RS-4, 2001 Marshall Williamson property -Madison Square (west) Rezoning Request RS-4 -RM-18 Sept. 03, 2013 Page 2 of6 Single Family Residential, to RM-18, 'which is a 2-story Multi-Family Residential (Figure 2) district in order to develop additional townhomes in conjunction with the main mixed use development site. Given the site area of approximately 40,000 square feet, the project could gain up to an additional 16 residential units. Figure 1. Compatibility of Use The proposed development site is surrounded by single-family, two-family (duplex), multi-family development. There are also several religious institutions, commercial and public/institutional uses. The subject property is bounded on three sides by existing streets; is approximately 80 feet from the main Madison Square development assemblage and abuts Marshall Williamson Park and recreational facilities to the rear, along S W 61 st Court. Public Facilities The developer selected to construct this project will be responsible for assuring that public infrastructure serving the site will be sufficient. The CRA and the City will work with the developer to ensure the standards are met. Parks/Recreation It is important to note that the LDC also allows the City to consider allocating surplus recreational capacity to a developer of affordable housing(Affordable Housing Concurrency Reserve). The Marshall Williamson property -Madison Square (west) Rezoning Request RS-4 -RM-18 Sept. 03, 2013 Page3of6 City currently has surplus recreational capacity (acreage). A developer would have to obtain a "A Certificate of Capacity Reservation", which would avoid the fee payment for the required park space. This requires a separate application made to the Planning and Zoning Department and an approval of a resolution by the City Commission (LDC Sec. 20-4.1 (F). Based upon the City's current Level of Service standard (Recreation/Open Space Element; Objective 1.1 -four acres for every 1000 population). Public Schools Once the total unit count for the entire Madison Square mixed-use project has been established, the Planning Department will file an application with the Miami-Dade County School District for a concurrency review and impact fee assessment. Water and Wastewater The developer will be required to submit necessary plans to Miami-Dade Water and Sewer to determine if sufficient capacity exists at time of construction permit. Transportation/Traffic The development in this area is within an established urban infill redevelopment area and within the County's redevelopment exception area. However, the developer will be required to provide a traffic study for the project to address any other impacts.

The proposed change also furthers the goals and objectives of the CRA plan with the provision of additional affordable and workforce housing units. HOUSING ELEMENT Goal1 To assure the availability of sound and affordable housing for all current and future residents of the City of South Miami with special focus on infill and redevelopment and to include housing units in the Hometown District. It is recognized that the choice of location rests with the individual and that the City's role is to implement policies that expand choices. Objective 1.1 The City shall support public and private efforts to provide at least 100 additional housing units, and aspire for the creation of 200 additional units, by 2015. Additionally, the City shall seek to provide an adequate supply of housing units that are affordable to households of all incomes, including the middle income sector, in proportions that are reflective of housing demands and needs in residential projects and communities. STAFF OBSERVATIONS While the particular site is in close proximity to existing single-family residential, there is a considerable mix of other types of residential development and-uses within the general area.' It is the intent of the Madison Square development project to maintain a cohesive residential character with the project, one that is sensitive to the existing single family residential development. The location of this site within the CRA and Urban Infill and Redevelopment Boundary; its proximity to the main Madison Square development project; its furtherance of the City's Comprehensive Plan goals and objectives, and the CRA Plan for the provision of additional affordable and workforce housing, all add up to positive benefits for the community. RECOMMENDATION The Planning Board at their meeting on August 13,2013, conducted a public hearing to discuss application PB-13-028. Following discussion between the board, staff, applicant, and the public, the board adopted a motion by a vote of 5 ayes and 0 nays, to recommend approval of the proposed rezoning of the following properties from RS-4 to RM-18; folio numbers 09-4025-000- 0850; 09-4025-000-0852; and 09-4025-065-0090. Staff also recommends that these properties be added to the Madison Square assemblage through unity oftitle.

Mrs. Beckman read the item into the record. Z:\PB\PB Minutes\2013 Minutes\August\PB Draft Regular Meeting Minutes -08-13-13.docx Page 1 of 4 Applicant: Oscar Sol (Project Developer) and Luigi 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 builtin 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 (RUD) 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. Mr. 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.
