Amendment 96-2ER (DCA No. 97-1ER)
City of South Miami
The City of South Miami is a municipality of just over 10,000 people, located within the urban
area of Metropolitan Dade County, Florida, which has an overall population of about 2,000,000.
The City is bisected by U.S. Highway #1 (US 1) which is a six-lane divided highway and the
primary arterial for the southern portion of Dade County. US 1 directly links the southern
portion of Dade County with the Interstate highway system. A portion of an elevated, rapid
transit rail system and transit corridor is situated directly alongside US 1, and runs parallel to the
highway through the City of South Miami.
Comprehensive Plan
On January 18, 1989, the City Commission of the City of South Miami adopted the City of
South Miami Comprehensive Plan (the Plan) which contains the goals, objectives and policies of
the City's vision for its future. The Plan is divided into various elements. The Future Land Use
Element contains the first goal of the Plan: "To preserve and enhance the City's small town
character. " The Plan stresses the primacy of this goal, including language stating that
"Preservation of the city's small town character is the most important goal of the comprehensive
plan. It shall guide all land use decision making." The Plan then identifies objectives and
policies to implement this first and primary goal. The second goal of the Plan is "To preserve
and enhance the pedestrian character and comparison shopping function of the City's Sunset
shopping area." Again, the Plan attributes importance to a specific goal, and includes that
"Preserving and enhancing the vitality of the Sunset commercial area is the second most
important goal of the comprehensive plan". No other goal received ranked priority, and it is
clear that all other goals in the Plan are subservient to these.
Mass Transit System
This County-operated, rapid transit rail system (Metrorail) transverses 21 miles of urban area
within Dade County. Metrorail connects the Central Business District of the City of Miami
(center of the metropolitan area and location of the main offices of Metro-Dade County
government), University of Miami Medical Campus and Jackson Memorial Hospital (County
hospital), University of Miami Main Campus, Dadeland Shopping Mall (a regional mail), and
Datran Center (with a major hotel), within an overall system ' of 21 transit stations. Finally,
Metrorail links to the Tri-Rail commuter rail system which serves three counties (Dade, Broward
and Palm Beach) and includes 67 miles of railway. The Metrorail system includes a transit
station located in the City of South Miami.
Multi-modal Transportation Opportunities
A shuttle bus route has been proposed to link the downtown, the transit station, two local
hospitals and an adjacent multi-family residential area in the City. The Mayor has appointed a
task force to study incentives for commercial redevelopment. One of the topics for the
committee to investigate is the feasibility of a ground transportation network servicing the
downtown retail core, the hospitals and the residential community near the Metrorail. In
addition, the task force is assigned with the duty of organizing effective marketing promotions to
meet the needs of the retail businesses. This could include effectively promoting and marketing
the shuttle bus system which provides service to Metrorail station, downtown, the hospitals and
the residential area adjacent to the transit corridor, as well as along all major arterials in the City.
Amendment 96-2ER (DCA No. 97-1ER) ii
Hometown Urban Design Charrette
During November 1992, the citizens of South Miami participated in a comprehensive study of
the existing downtown shopping area via a broad-based, public participation, public input forum
known as a "charrette". The process was a joint effort between the City of South Miami and a
private group of property owners and merchants in downtown (South Miami Hometown, Inc.).
The private planning firm of Dover, Kohl & Partners was retained to facilitate the "charrette"
proceedings. The process involves consultant-led focus groups with the intent of developing a
graphic master plan for a specific geographic area within the existing overall community.
Hometown Regulations
On October 19, 1993, the City Commission of the City of South Miami adopted Ordinance No.
19-93-1545, known as the Hometown District Overlay Ordinance (HD) in response to the goals
established in the Comprehensive Plan. The adopted legislation is designed to promote
redevelopment of the Sunset shopping area (about 40 acres) and includes provisions for the
enhancement of the pedestrian environment and the creation of a community identity for the
City of South Miami. The legislation regulates and is applicable to a specific area which is
defined by physical boundaries within the HD.
The stated intent by the HD is to reinforce the goals of the Plan within an established, distinct,
geographical district comprised of the existing downtown core area of South Miami, which is
defined and entitled the Hometown District. The HD then sets forth both graphic and verbal
directives to guide development within the district. Regulations are specifically designed to
promote the activities of pedestrian users and encourage store-to-store, on-foot exploration and
retail shopping by consumers.
Architectural standards are established which are intended to yield a distinctive, traditional
appearance for development and redevelopment projects. The standards are very specific for
each building component (e.g., doors, windows, walls, arcades). Street standards are also
established which reduce street width and driving lanes to slow vehicular movement with the
intent of providing a safer and more pleasant environment for both vehicular users and
pedestrian users. The HD also envisions a series of linked pedestrian arcades and canopies
throughout the downtown to provide for the sheltered, safe and varied pedestrian environment.
Hometown Too (EI) Urban Design Charrette
During July 1994, the community again gathered for workshops, discussion groups and intense
round-table design sessions as part of the second charrette. This public participation function
developed a physical master plan for a second and geographically larger area of the City. The
proposed EAR-based Comprehensive Plan Amendments are the first step towards developing
specific regulatory standards regarding the implementation of the ideas set forth in the second
charrette. The resulting concepts that were generated from the charrette are similar to those in
the first charrette. Similar zoning regulations are expected to be adopted subsequent to approval
and adoption of the proposed 96-2ER Comprehensive Plan Amendment Package.
Amendment 96-2ER (DCA No. 97-1ER) iii
�k
As a result of the 1995 Evaluation & Appraisal Report, the Local Planning Agency recommends
that the City amend its Comprehensive Plan, in order to implement the 1995 Future Land Use
Map designation of Mixed-Use Commercial/Residential (Four-Story) for those properties
designated as "Madison Square" in the Hometown Too Charrette Study.
The purpose of this amendment into change the 1995 Future Land Use Map designations on the
properties indicated in the Hometown Too Charrette Study as Madison Square. The proposed
Mixed-Use Commercial/Residential (Four-Story) land use designation described in the 1995
Evaluation & Appraisal Report is the mixed-use category most appropriate for this location.
The Hometown Too Charrette Study contains the following language under the section entitled
Specific Proposals for the area indicated as Madison Square [S.W. 59hPlace & 64"' Street]:
Madison square (intersection of Church Street and Hardee Drive)
Slightly raise the intersection and give the street a paving texture to create
a special public plaza, tentatively called "Madison Square."
Promote this location for private redevelopment or CDC redevelopment.
Establish grants or loans for fagade improvements for existing buildings
around the intersection.
Benefits: Appearance improvements in this highly visible location will
boost the neighborhood's self- image -and foster investor confidence in the
blighted area. Redevelopment around Madison Square will create jobs, foster
small business, improve the tax base, and reduce security concerns.
Language which specifies the exact nature of the proposed Mixed-Use Commercial/Residential
(Four-Story) land use designation and all proposed land use designations is included as part of
the EAR-Based Comprehensive Plan Language Amendment (XV). This language is intended to
be included in the Future Land Use Categories contained within the Future Land Use Element of
the Comprehensive Plan. Language for the Mixed-Use Commercial/Residential designation is
intended to apply to the "Madison Square" Amendment (I), "Charrette Too" Amendment (II),
"Community Center" Amendment (V), and the "Hometown District" Amendment (VI).
Proposed Use Designation
The 1995 Future Land Use Map indicates the areas to be designated with the proposed land use
designation of Mixed-Use Commercial/Residential (Four-Story). The Madison Square project is
one of four such amendments which include the "Charrette Too" Amendment (II), the
"Community Center" Amendment (V) and the "Hometown District" Amendment (VI). The
proposed Mixed-Use Commercial/Residential land use designation is described as follows:
The Mixed -Use Commercial /Residential land use category is intended to provide for different
levels of retail uses, office uses, retail and office services, and residential dwelling units with an
emphasis on mixed-use development that is characteristic of traditional downtowns. Permitted
heights and intensities shall be set forth in the Land Development Code. Regulations regarding_
the permitted height, density and intensity in zoning districts for areas designated as mixed - -use
commercial /residential shall provide incentives for transit- oriented development and mixed- use -
development. Zoning regulations shall reinforce "no widenings " policy set forth in the Traffic
Circulation Element by encouraging use ofMetrorail system.
Adjacent Land Use Designations
Adjacent land use designations are illustrated on the 1995 Future Land Use Map. All of the
properties surrounding Madison Square are designated as Single- Family Residential on the 1995
New Future Land Use Map.
Effected Area
The subject properties of Madison Square consist of the existing designated commercial area and
the addition of four lots which are indicated in italics. The whole is legally described as follows:
Lots 8 and 9 Block 2, Lots 6 and ?, Block 4, of the "Amended Plat of Hamlet" Subdivision,
according to the plat thereof, as recorded in Plat Book 4 at Page 48, of the Public Records of
Dade County, Florida; and,
Lots 1, -2 and 3, Block 1, Lots 14, 15, 16, 17 and 18, Block 3, Lots 27, 28, 29 and 30, Block 5,
Lots 40, 41, 42 and 43, Block 7, of the "Franklin" Subdivision, according to the plat thereof, as
recorded in Plat Book 5 at Page 34, of the Public Records of Dade County, Florida.
Existing Uses in Effected Area
The 1995 Existing Land Use Map shows the current use of the properties contained within the
proposed Mixed-Use Commercial/Residential land use designation area. The adjacent street
system is also illustrated.
Current Land Use Designations and Areas
The current land use designations for properties in the proposed Madison Square are indicated
on the 1989 Future Land Use Map and include the two parcels north of S.W. 64 Street that are
vacant and currently are designated as single - family residential.
The properties south of the street are currently designated as Neighborhood Retail (a similar land
use type, although limited to only two- stories). This amendment is a very minor expansion (the
addition of four lots) to the existing commercial land use designation in order to accomplish a
node with retail opportunities on the four comers of this intersection. The primary focus is to
create a recognizable locus of activity in this area. The composition of the area is as follows:
Four vacant lots designated single- family residential 0.30 acres
Existing Neighborhood Retail designated area 2.11 acres
Total
2;41 acres
PA
pmn�.�
Existing infrastructure which provides water and sewer services to the effected area is in place.
Supplemental upgrades to water and sewer service systems, if necessary, will be required in
order to approve development. Solid waste capacity is available as described in the EAR. See
Appendix -1 for the complete tables of impacts resulting from 96 -ER 1 and 96 -ER 2.
The City desires to create regulations which would implement a 1:1:1 ratio for development of
retail, office and residential uses within the district. Regulations could permit sharing among
developments and /or properties of the three primary uses. Development at four stories would be
permitted by right under the provisions of a quality -of- design regulatory package.
Facilities Analysis
This is an analysis of the net increase in public facility demand if the land in the proposed
Mixed -Use Commercial/Residential District (Four - Story) is developed to the intended mix of
land uses. For the purpose of analysis, a development and redevelopment goal of 25% for the
district is assumed. The City is aware that this is an ambitious goal for a redevelopment district.
The entire district is approximately 2.41 acres in area. Utilizing the 25% o goal for development
and redevelopment, in conjunction with the 1:1: l ratio, an expected maximum new development
and redevelopment floor area is calculated. Maximum development permitted is four stories.
Parking, landscaping, and setbacks will restrict development potential An F. A. R. of 0.5 per
floor reflects reasonable expectations for development and is applied here for calculations.
Sewage Impact
The adopted LOS for sewage in the City of South Miami is 100 gallons per person per day.
Measurability is based on County measures of capacity at service facilities. Metro -Dade County
reports a total capacity of 318 millions of gallons per day (mgpd) for users, and 276.34 mgpd is
utilized; therefore, the remaining available capacity is approximately 41.66 mgpd. For the
purpose of calculating the impacts of each amendment on the capacity of sewage facilities, the
remaining available capacity will be 41.66 mgpd minus the projected demand of all preceding
amendments. Thus, the remaining available capacity for this amendment, 37.59 mgpd, is equal
to 41.66 mgpd minus the projected demand of 96 -ER 1, 4.07 mgpd. The generation rates
reported below are from the American Water Works Association (AMWA). Office generation
rates are based upon the assumption that the occupancy of office space will be one employee per
100 square feet- (South Florida Building Code). Residential: generation rates are based upon the
assumption that the average multi- family dwelling unit is 1200 square feet.

Water Impact
The adopted LOS for water in the City of South Miami is 150 gallons per person per day at a
pressure of 20 psi or more. Measurability is based on County measures at service facilities.
Metro-Dade County reports a total capacity of 190 mgpd available for users, and 161.5 mgpd is
utilized; therefore, the remaining capacity available is approximately 28.5 mgpd. For the purpose
of calculating the impacts of each amendment on the capacity of water facilities, the remaining
available capacity will be 28.50 mgpd minus the projected demand of all preceding amendments.
Thus, the remaining available capacity for this amendment, 24.40 mgpd, is equal to 28.50 mgpd
minus the projected demand of 96-ER 1, 4.10 mgpd. Generation rates reported below are from
the American Water Works Association (AMWA). Office generation rates are based upon the
assumption that the occupancy of office space will be one employee per 100 square feet (South
Florida Building Code). Residential generation rates are based upon the assumption that the
average multi-family dwelling unit size is 1200 square feet.

Solid Waste Impact
The adopted LOS for solid waste in the City of South Miami is 7.6 pounds per person per day.
Measurability is based on County measures of capacity at service facilities. Metro-Dade County
reports that a total capacity of 16.9 million tons is available for users and only 11 million tons is
utilized; therefore, remaining capacity available is 5.9 million tons. For the purpose of

Recreation Impact
The adopted LOS for park land in the City of South Miami is 4 acres per 1,000 population.
EAR-based population information indicates the City's population is currently 10,518 persons.
The City currently provides approximately 51.36 acres of park land; therefore, the remaining
capacity available is approximately 9.29 acres. This would permit a 2,323 person increase in the
population while maintaining the City's recreational LOS standards. For the purpose of
calculating recreation impacts, the remaining available capacity will be 9.29 acres minus the
projected demand of all preceding amendments. Thus, the remaining available capacity for this

commercial possibilities, and it will also provide the citizens with an opportunity to work, live, and
play in the same area. The composition of the area is as follows:
Existing Commercial Office Uses
1.57 acres
Existing Commercial Retail
3.41 acres
Existing Public Institutional
2.85 acres
Existing Single Family
1.11 acres
Existing Vacant Lands
5.27 acres
Total
14.21 acres
PUBLIC FACILITIES IMPACT
Existing infrastructure which provides water and sewer services to the effected area is in place.
Supplemental upgrades to water and sewer service systems, if necessary, will be required in order to
approve development. Solid waste capacity is available as described in the EAR. See Appendix I for
the complete table of impacts resulting from 96-ER I and 96-ER 2.
The City desires to create regulations which would implement a 1:1 :1 ratio for development of retail,
office, and residential uses within the district. Regulations could permit sharing among developments
and/or properties of the three primary uses. Development at four stories would be permitted by right
under the provisions of a quality-of-design regulatory package.
Facilities Analysis
This is an analysis of the net increase in public facility demand if the land in the proposed Mixed-Use
Commercial/Residential Area (Four-Story) is developed to the intended mix of land uses. For the
purpose of analysis, a development and redevelopment goal of 25% of the area is assumed. The City
is aware that this is an ambitious goal for a redevelopment district.
The entire proposed Charrette Too area is approximately 14.21 acres. Utilizing the 25% goal for
development and redevelopment in conjunction with the 1:1:1 ratio, an expected maximum new
development and redevelopment floor area is calculated. Maximum development permitted is four
stories. Parking, landscaping, and setbacks will restrict development potential. An F.A.R. of 0.5 per
floor reflects reasonable expectations for development and is applied here for calculations.

Sewage Impact
The adopted LOS for sewage in the City of South Miami is 100 gallons per person per day.
Measurability is based on County measures of capacity at service facilities. Metro -Dade County
reports a total capacity of 318 mgpd is available for users, and the remaining capacity is
approximately 37.41 mgpd (see Appendix I). The projected demand from this amendment is
approximately 1.07 mgpd, therefore, the remaining capacity decreases to 36,34 mgpd, still well above
baseline standards. Generation rates reported below are from the American Water Works
Association ( A). Office generation rates are based upon the assumption that the occupancy of
office space will be one employee per 100 square feet (South Florida Building Code). Residential
generation rates are based upon the assumption that the average multi - family dwelling unit is 1200
square feet.

County reports a total capacity of 190 mgpd is available for users, and the remaining capacity
available is approximately 24.21 mgpd (see Appendix I). The projected demand from this
amendment is approximately 1.08 mgpd, therefore, the remaining capacity decreases to 23.14 mgpd,
still well above baseline standards. Generation rates reported below are from the AMWA. Office
generation rates are based upon the assumption that the occupancy of office space will be one

Recreation Impact
The adopted LOS for park land in the City of South Miami is 4 acres per 1,000 population. This
amendment is projected to cause a population increase of approximately 215 people, which would
result in the demand of an additional 0.86 acres of parkland. The remaining available capacity of
parkland would decrease to 5.02 acres above baseline standards.

Transportation Impact
The proposed Charrette Too Mixed -Use Commercial/Residential land use designation is served
by S.W.,64 Street and S.W. 62 Avenue which are County section -line roadways and exempted
from traffic concurrency pursuant to the County's adopted Urban Infill Area.
Conclusion
These comparisons illustrate that the expected density and intensity of development within the
proposed Mixed -Use Commercial/Residential district will not reduce the levels -of- service for the
City of South Miami. None of the calculated public facility impacts exceed existing capacity.
PROPOSED LANGUAGE AMENDMENTS
The purpose of this amendment is to change the Future Land Use Map to designate the
"Charrette Too" area with the Mixed -Use Commercial/Residential (Four -Story) land use
designation defined in the EAR. The 1995 Future Land Use Map indicates areas to be
designated with the proposed land use designations. Amendment XV contains the language
changes which amend the Future Land Use Categories and describe the specific nature of all
designations.

As a result of the 1995 Evaluation & Appraisal Report, the Local Planning Agency recommends that
the City amend its Comprehensive Plan, in order to implement the 1995 Future Land Use Map
designations of Parks and Open Space and Public Institutional Uses (Four-Story) for the properties
involved with and adjacent to the proposed reconfiguration of Marshall Williamson Park.
uzfl��� �11 �U �311 10
The Hometown Too Charrette Study contains the following language under the section entitled
Specific Proposals for Marshall Williamson Park:
'Alarshall Williamson Park:
• Reconfigure the shape to form a traditional urban park.
• Construct new buildings facing the park on the east and west.
• Remove-the berms,
• Reconnect SW 68th Street.
• Straighten SW 61st Court
• Construct a new street between the park and the public housing complex.
• Prepare southern end of reconfigured park as the site for a future civic building.
Benefits.- Removing the berms will make it easier for police and neighbors to
monitor goings-on in the park. The park will be safer when the fronts of houses face
it. By making the park rectangular in shape with the street changes, the park will no
longer be a "leftover" between complexes and will have more usable public space...

The 1995 New Future Land Use Map indicates the areas to be designated with the proposed land use
designation of Public Institutional Uses (Four-Story). The Marshall Williamson Park project is one
of three such amendments which include the "South Miami Hospital" Land Use Amendment (DQ and
the "South Miami Middle School" Correction Amendment (XI). The proposed Public Institutional
Uses (Four-Story) land designation is described as follows:
The public institutional land use category is intended to provide for public schools, municipal
facilities, utilities, churches, temples, synagogues and similar uses. Areas designated public
and institutional should not be used for other purposes without an amendment to this plan.
Zoning regulations could permit public and institutional uses on sites not so designated by this
plan.
E
Effected Area
The subject properties of the Marshall Williamson Park project consist of the existing designated Park
area, the Low Density Multiple area, the Public and Semi-Public area, the Single Family Residential
(Two-Story) area, and the adjacent street system, which includes SW 66'h Terrace, SW 6V Court, and
SW 681h Street. A large portion of SW 61' Court and small portions of SW 66ffi Terrace and SW 68'
Street will be incorporated into the properties. The whole is legally described as follows:
Lot 21, Block A, of the "Resubdivision of The Townsite" Subdivision, according to the plat thereof,
as recorded in Plat Book 4 at Page 1, of the Public Records of Dade County, Florida; and,
The West 94 feet more or less of Tract D, all of Tracts E, F, G, and those portions of Southwest 68th
Street, Southwest 66 Ter-race, and Southwest 61st Court lying adjacent thereto, of the "University
Gardens" Subdivision, according to the plat thereof, as recorded in Plat Book 102 at Page 19, of the
Public Records of Dade County, Florida.
Existing Uses in Effected Area
The 1995 Existing Land Use Map shows the current use of the properties contained within the
proposed Parks and Open Space land use designation area. The adjacent street system is also
illustrated.
Current Land Use Designations and Areas
The current land use designations for the properties of the subject area are indicated on the 1989
Future Land Use Map. The North end of the proposed park currently accomodates a Housing and
Urban Development (HUD) sponsored Day Care Center and is currently designated Single Family
Residential (Two-Story). The middle portion of the proposed Marshall Williamson Park is an
undeveloped part of HUD's Public Housing Project which is currently designated as Low Density
Multiple (Two-Story) and a road, SW 61st Court. The South end of the proposed park is part of the
existing Marshall Williamson Park and is currently designated as Parks and Open Space. The current
site of the park is designated Parks and Open Space. The effected areas on the western side of the
current park are currently designated Low Density Multiple and Public and Semi- Public. Parts of
the adjacent street system will also be modified, and parts of Southwest 61st Court, Southwest 66th
Terrace, and Southwest 68th Street will actually become incorporated into the project. This
amendment attempts to reconfigure the park to a more traditional shape and to properly designate the
adjoining land, which accommodates public buildings, as Public Institutional Uses (Four-Story). The
reconfiguration of the park will also improve efficiency of the adjacent street system, while providing
a beautiful backdrop which could spur new development in the area. In summary, the properties
involved in the Marshall Williamson Park project are currently designated Single Family Residential
(Two-Story), Low Density Multiple (Two-Story), Public and Semi Public (Four-Story), and Parks
and Open Space on the 1989 Future Land Use Map.
The composition of the area is as follows:
Existing Park designated Parks and Open Space

PUBLIC FACILITIES IMPACT
Existing infrastructure which provides water and sewer services to the effected area is in place.
Supplemental upgrades to water and sewer service systems, if necessary, will be required in order to
approve development. This amendment will slightly increase available recreational facilities. No
other public facilities will be impacted. For a complete picture of the public facilities impacts caused
by this amendment and all others, see Appendix I.
Recreation Impact
The adopted LOS for park land in the City of South Miami is 4 acres per 1;000 population. EAR- -
based population information indicates the City's population is currently 10,518 persons. The City
currently provides 51.36 acres of parkland; therefore, the City's current LOS for park land exceeds
the baseline requirement. The current Marshall Williamson Park occupies approximately 2.73 acres.
The proposed reconfigured Marshall Williamson Park will also be approximately 2.73 acres, resulting
in no loss of park land.
Conclusion
This amendment will create a more user - friendly Marshall Williamson Park, and it will simplify
the land use scheme in the surrounding area. No levels -of- service will be decreased due to this
amendment.
The purpose of this amendment is to change the Future Land Use Map to designate the proposed
Marshall Williamson Park Reconfiguration Area with the appropriate land use designations as
described by the EAR. The 1995, Future Land Use Map indicates areas to be designated with the
proposed land use designations. Amendment XV contains the language changes which amend
the Future Land Use Categories and describe the specific nature of all designations.

As a result of the 1995 Evaluation & Appraisal Report, the Local Planning Agency recommends that
the City amend its Comprehensive Plan, in order to implement the 1995 Future Land Use Map land
use designation of Multiple Family Residential (Four-Story) for Tracts C and D, plus their additions
due to Amendment III, of the "University Gardens No. 3 " Subdivision, hereafter known as the "Park
View Townhouses:"
The purpose of this amendment is to change the 1995 Future Land Use Map designations on the
properties identified as the "Park View Townhouses. " The proposed Multiple-Family Residential
(Four-Story) land use designation described in the 1995 Evaluation & Appraisal Report is the land
use category most appropriate for this location.
The City, in keeping with its goals of simplifying and condensing the land use code, has determined
that the Low Density Multiple land use designation is redundant, and its objectives are met by the
proposed Multiple Family Residential land use designation.
DATA AND ANALYSIS
Proposed Use Designation
The 1995 Future Land Use Map indicates the areas to be designated with the proposed land use
designation of Multiple-Family Residential (Four-Story). The proposed Multiple-Family Residential
(Four-Story) land use designation is described as follows:
17
Adjacent Land Use Designations
Adjacent land uses are illustrated on the 1995 Future Land Use Map. The properties surrounding the
proposed "Park View Townhouses" are designated as Single Family, Park and Open Spaces,
Multiple-Family Residential (Four-Story), Mixed-Use Land Use (Four-Story), and TODD (4+4) on
the 1995 Future Land Use Map.
Effected Area
The subject properties of the proposed "Park View Townhouses" consist of the existing Dade County
Housing and Urban Development Public Housing Complex and a portion of S; W. 61st Court. The
whole is legally described as follows:
Tract "C" and Tract "D" of the "University Gardens No. 3" Subdivision, according to the plat thereof,
as recorded in Plat Book 102 at Page 19, of the Public Records of Dade County, Florida.
Existing Uses in Effected Area
The 1995 Existing Land Use Map shows the current use of the properties contained within the
proposed Multiple-Family Residential land use designation area. The adjacent street system is also
illustrated.
Existing HUD tract "C" 3.26 acres
Existing HUD tract "D" 3,79 acres
and reconfigured addition
Total 7,05 acres
Existing infrastructure which provides water and sewer services to the effected area is in place.
Supplemental upgrades to water and sewer service systems, if -necessary, will be required in order to
approve development. Solid waste capacity is available as described in the EAR. See Appendix I
for the complete tables of impacts resulting from 96-ER I and 96-ER 2.
Facilities Analysis
This is an analysis of the net increase in public facility demand if the land in the proposed Multiple-
Family Residential (Four-Story) area is developed and redeveloped 100%.
V
The proposed "Park View Townhouses" area is 7.05 acres. Under the parcels' current designation of
Low Density Multiple - Family Residential (Two- Story), 100 %® development would allow 127 units.
Under the regulations of the proposed Multiple - Family Residential (Four -Story) land use designation,
100 %® redevelopment would result in 180 units, a 41.7 % increase. Therefore, the application of the
proposed land use designation of Multiple - Family Residential (Four -Story) to the "Park View
Townhouses" area will also result in an increase on the public facilities impact.
Sewage Impact
The adopted LOS for sewage in the City of South Miami is 100 gallons per person per day,
Measurability is based on County measure of capacity at service facilities. Metro -Dade County
reports a total capacity of 318 mgpd is available for users, and the remaining capacity is
approximately 36.34 mgpd (see Appendix I). The projected demand from this amendment is
approximately 0.012 mgpd, therefore, the remaining capacity decreases to 36.33 mgpd, still well
above baseline standards. Generation rates reported below are from the American Water Works
Association ( A). Office generation rates are based upon the assumption that the occupancy of
office space will be one employee per 100 square feet (South Florida Building Code). Residential
generation rates are based upon the assumption that the average multi - family dwelling unit is 1200
square feet.
Water Impact
The adopted LOS for water in the City of South Miami is 150 gallons per person per day at a pressure
of 20 psi or more. Measurability is based on County measures at service facilities. Metro -Dade
County reports a total capacity of 190 mgpd is available for users, and the remaining capacity
available is approximately 23.14 mgpd (see Appendix I). ). The projected demand from this
amendment is approximately 0.22 mgpd, therefore, the remaining capacity decreases to 23.12 mgpd,
still well above baseline standards. Generation rates reported below are from the American Water
Works Association ( A). Office generation rates are based upon the assumption that the
occupancy of office space will be on employee per 100 square feet (South Florida Building Code).

Commercial uses which provide basic daily needs such as banks, grocery stores, hair salons,
hardware stores, restaurants, and civic uses such as the post office, library, daycare, and places
of worship are very important to the sustainable growth of the community.
DATA AND ANALVSIS
Proposed Use Designation
The 1995 Future Land Use map indicates the areas to be designated with the proposed land use
designation of Mixed -Use Commercial/Residential (Four- Story), The "Community Center"
Amendment (V is one of four such amendments which include the "Madison Square" Amendment
M
(1), the "Charrette Too" Amendment (11), and the "Hometown District" Amendment (VI). The
proposed Mixed -Use Commercial/Residential land use designation is described as follows:
The Mixed-Use CommerciallResidential land use category is intended to provide for different
levels of retail uses, office uses, retail and office services, and residential dwelling units with an
emphasis on mixed-use development that is characteristic of traditional downtowns. Permitted
heights and intensities shall be set forth in the Land Development Code. Regulations regarding
the permitted height, density and intensity in zoning districts for areas designated as mixed-use
commercial /residential shall provide incentives for transit-oriented development and mixed-use
development. Zoning regulations shall reinforce "no widenings "policy set forth in the Traffic
Circulation Element by encouraging use ofMetrorail system.
Adjacent Land Use Designations
Adjacent land uses are illustrated • the 1995 Future Land Use N4ap. The properties surrounding the
proposed Community Center are designated as Parks and Open Space, Townhouse Residential (Two-
Story), Public Institutional Uses (Four-Story), and TODD (4+4) on the 1995 Future Land Use Map.
Effected Area
The subject properties of the proposed Community Center consist of the existing Low Intensity
Office area. The whole is legally described as follows:
Lots 10 to 26, inclusive, Block 8 of the "Townsite of Larkins" Subdivision, according to the plat
thereof, as recorded in Plat Book 2 at Page 105, of the Public Records of Dade County, Florida.

The 1995 Existing Land Use map shows the current use of the properties contained within the
proposed Mixed -Use Commercial/Residential land use designation area. The adjacent street system is
also illustrated.

W
Existing infrastructure which provides water and sewer services to the effected area is in place.
Supplemental upgrades to water and sewer service systems, if necessary, will be required in order to
approve development. Solid waste capacity is available as described in the EAR. See Appendix l
for the complete tables of impacts resulting from 96 -ER 1 and 96-ER 2.
The City desires to create regulations which would implement a 1:1 ` 1 ratio for development of retail,
office, and residential uses within the district. Regulations could permit sharing among developments
and/or properties of the three primary uses. Development at four stories would be permitted by right
under the provisions of a quality -of- design regulatory package.
Facilities Analysis
This is an analysis of the net increase in public facility demand if the land in the proposed Mixed -Use
Commercial/Residential Area (Four -Story) is developed to the intended mix of land uses. For the
purpose of analysis, a development and redevelopment goal of 50% of the area is assumed. The City
is aware that this is an ambitious goal for a redevelopment area.
The entire proposed area is approximately 1.46 acres in area. Utilizing the 50% goal for development
and redevelopment, in conjunction with the 1 :1 :1 ratio, an expected maximum new development and
redevelopment floor area is calculated. Maximum development permitted is four stories. Parking,
landscaping, and setbacks will restrict development potential. An FAR of 0.5 per floor reflects
reasonable expectations for development and is applied here for calculations.
Sewage Impact
The adopted LOS for sewage in the City of South Miami is 100 gallons per person per day.
Measurability is based on County measure of capacity at service facilities. Metro -Dade County
reports a total capacity of 318 mgpd is available for users, and the remaining capacity is
approximately 36.33 mgpd (see Appendix I). The projected demand from this amendment is
approximately 0.22 mgpd, therefore, the remaining capacity decreases to 36.11 mgpd, still well above
baseline standards. Generation rates reported below are from the American Water Works
Association (AMWA). Office generation rates are based upon the assumption that the occupancy of
office space will be one employee per 100 square feet (South Florida Building Code). Residential
generation rates are based upon the assumption that the average multi - family dwelling unit is 1200
square feet.

Solid Waste Impact
The adopted LOS for solid waste in the City of South Miami is 7.6 pounds per person per day.
Measurability is based on County measures of capacity at service facilities . Metro-Dade County
reports that a total capacity of 16.9 million tons is available for users, and the remaining capacity
available is 5.870 million tons. The projected demand from this amendment is approximately 0.0012
million tons, therefore, the remaining capacity decreases to 5.868 million tons, still well above
baseline standards. Generation rates are from South Miami Con'currency Management System, Table

Recreation Impact
The adopted LOS for park land in the City of South Miami is 4 acres per 1,000 population. The
remaining available capacity is approximately 4.49 acres. This amendment has a projected demand
of 0.18 acres, therefore, the remaining available capacity would be 4.31 acres above baseline
standards.
For the purpose of calculations, it is assumed that the persons per square foot of residential use is one
person per 480 square feet, based on an average multi-family dwelling unit size of 1200 square feet
(conservative average) and an average occupancy of 2.5 (national Census standard).

As a result of the 1995 Evaluation & Appraisal RepoM the Local Planning Agency recommends that
the City amend its Comprehensive Plan, in order to implement the 1995 Future Land Use Map land
use designation of Mixed -Used Commercial/Residential (Four-Story) for those properties designated
as the "Hometown District."
The purpose of this amendment is to change the 1995 Future Land Use Map designations on the
properties identified as the Hometown District. The proposed Mixed-Use Commercial/Residential
(Four-Story) land use designation explained in the 1995 Evaluation & Appraisal Report is the mixed
use land category most appropriate for this location.
The City has determined that the Hometown District should be designated as NExed-Use
Commercial/ Residential because it fosters the coordinated, sensible development of the area. Article
VII of the City of South Miami's Land Development Code states the following about the Hometown
District:
These, new regulations intend to invigorate the economic and social vitality of South
Miami's "main street" business center, distinct from Dadeland-type malls and West
Kendall-type strip development...
DATA AND ANALYSIS
The Mixed -Use CommerciallResidential land use category is intended to provide for different
levels of retail uses, office uses, retail and office services, and residential dwelling units with an
emphasis on mixed-use development that is characteristic of traditional downtowns. Permitted
heights and intensities shall he set forth in the Land Development Code. Regulations regarding
0".
the permitted height, density and intensity in zoning districts for areas designated as mixed-use
commercial /residential shall provide incentives for transit-oriented development and mixed-use
development. Zoning regulations shall reinforce "no widenings "policy set forth in the Traffic
Circulation Element by encouraging use ofMetrorail system.
Adjacent Land Use Designations
Adjacent land uses are illustrated on the 1995 New Future Land Use Map. The properties
surrounding the "Hometown District" are designated as Multi-Family Residential (Four-Story),
Townhouse Residential (Four-Story), and Residential Office Uses (Two-Story).
Effected Area
The subject properties of the "Hometown District" consist of the existing retail/residential and office
area. The whole is legally defined as follows:
Lots 1-20, inclusive, of the "Cooper's Subdivision," according to the plat therof, as recorded in Plat
Book 4 at Page 152, of the Public Records • Dade County, Florida; and,

PUBLIC FACILITIES IMPACT
Existing infrastructure which provides water and sewer services to the effected area is in place.
Supplemental upgrades to water and sewer service systems, if necessary, will be required in order to
approve development. Solid waste capacity is available as described in the EAR. See Appendix 1
for the complete tables of impacts resulting from 96 -ER 1- and 96 -ER 2.
The City desires to create regulations which would implement a 1:1:1 ratio for development of retail,
office, and residential uses within the district. Regulations could permit sharing among developments
and/or properties of the three primary uses. Development at four stories would be permitted by right
under the provision of a quality -of -design regulatory package.
Facilities Analysis
This is an analysis of the net increase in public facility demand if the land in the proposed Mixed -Use
Commercial Residential District ( Four - Story) is developed to the intended mix of land uses. For the
purpose of analysis, -a development and redevelopment goal of 25% of the district is assumed. The
City is aware that this is an ambitious goal for a redevelopment district.

Transportation Impact
The proposed Hometown District Mixed -Use Commercial /Residential land area is served by both
Red Road and Sunset Drive. These roadways are designated for level-of-service "F "; therefore, no
traffic impact analysis is required for these roadways. The LOS ( level -of- service) for U.S. 1 is set
forth in the Traffic Circulation (Transportation) Element and traffic concurrency will be evaluated on
a project-by-project basis utilizing the City's adopted Concurrency Management System (CMS).
Conclusion
These comparisons illustrate that the expected density and intensity of development within the
proposed Mixed -Use Commercial/Residential area will not reduce the levels of service for the City of
South Miami. None of the calculated public facility impacts exceed existing capacity.
PROPOSED LANGUAGE AMENDMENTS
The purpose of this amendment is to change the Future Land Use Map to designate the properties
identified as the Hometown District with the land use designation described in the EAR. The 1995
Future Land Use Map indicates areas to be designated with the proposed land use designations.
Amendment XV contains the language changes which amend the Future Land Use Categories and
describe the specific nature of all designations.

As a result of the 1995 Evaluation & Appraisal Report, the Local Planning Agency recommends that
the City amend its Comprehensive Plan, in order to implement the 1995 New Future Land Use Map
land use designation • Multiple Family Residential (Four-Story) for those properties currently
designated Low Density Multiple (Two-Story) on the 1989 Future Land Use Map and which are not
specifically addressed in any • the other amendments in the 96-ER 2.
FNTRODUCTION AND SUMMARY
The City, in keeping with its goals of simplifying and condensing the land use code, has determined
that the Low Density Multiple land use designation is redundant, and its objectives are met by the
proposed Multiple Family Residential land use designation.
DATA AND ANALYSIS
Proposed Use Designation
The 1995 Future Land Use Map indicates the areas to be designated with the proposed land use
designation of Multiple Family Residential (Four-Story). The proposed Multiple Family Residential
(Four-Story) land use category is described as follows:
El
Adjacent Land Use Designations
Adjacent land use designations are illustrated on the 1995 Future Land Use Map, The properties
surrounding the subject properties are designated Multiple Family Residential (Four-Story), Single
Family Residential (Two-Story), and Townhouse Residential (Two-Story) on the 1995 Future Land
Use Map.
Lots 8-14, inclusive, Block 2, of the Larkin Pines Subdivision, according to the plat thereof, as
recorded in Plat Book 24 at page 20, of the Public Records of Dade County, Florida; and,
Lots 10-14, inclusive, 18-20, inclusive, 36-39, inclusive, and 46-48, inclusive, of the American

Public Records of Dade County, Florida; and,
Lots 10 and 11, of the Field Villas Subdivision, according to the plat thereof, as recorded in Plat Book
47 at page 98, of the Public Records of Dade County, Florida.
Existing Uses in Effected Area
The 1995 Existing Land use map shows the current use of the properties contained within the
proposed Multiple Family Residential area. The adjacent street system is also illustrated.
Existing Low Density Multiple
4.04 acres
Existing infrastructure which provides water and sewer services to the effected area is in place.
Supplemental upgrades to water and sewer service systems, if necessary, will be required in order to
approve development. Solid waste capacity is available as described in the EAR. See Appendix I
for the complete tables of impacts resulting from 96-ER I and 96-ER 2.
Facilities Analysis
This is an analysis of the net increase in public facility demard if the subject properties are developed
or redeveloped to their maximum density. The City, however, does not wish or expect the subject
properties to undertake development or redevelopment.
The maximum allowable development and redevelopment of the subject properties under the
stipulations of the current designation,- Low - Density Multiple, would allow 73 units. The proposed
Multiple Family Residential land use designation would allow 97 units. Therefore, the proposed
Multiple Family Residential land use designation could have a greater impact on public facilities, and
35
the potential, but doubtful, increase of 24 units will be used to calculate the impacts on public
facilities.
Sewage Impact
The adopted LOS for sewage in the City of South Miami is 100 gallons per person per day.
Measurability is based on County measure of capacity at service facilities. Metro-Dade County
reports a total capacity of 318 mgpd is available for users, and the remaining capacity is
approximately 33.06 mgpd (see Appendix 1). The projected demand from this amendment is
approximately 0.0055 mgpd, therefore, the remaining capacity decreases to 33.05 mgpd, still well
above baseline standards. Generation rates reported below are from the American Water Works
Association (AMWA). Office generation rates are based upon the assumption that the occupancy of
office space will be one employee per 100 square feet (South Florida Building Code). Residential
generation rates are based upon the assumption that the average multi-family dwelling unit is 1200
square feet.
Water Impact
The adopted LOS for water in the City of South Miami is 150 gallons per person per day at a pressure
of 20 psi or more. Measurability is based on County measures at service facilities. Metro-Dade
County reports a total capacity of 190 mgpd is available for users, and the remaining capacity
available is approximately 19.82 mgpd (see Appendix I). The projected demand from this
amendment is approximately 0. 0066 mgpd. Therefore, the remaining capacity decreases, but the
decrease is so insignificant that after rounding to significant figures the remaining capacity remains at
19.82 mgpd, still well above baseline standards. Generation rates reported below are from the
American Water Works Association (AMWA). Office generation rates are based upon the
assumption that the occupancy of office space will be on employee per 100 square feet (South Florida
Building Code). Residential generation rates are based upon the assumption that the average multi-
family dwelling unit size is 1200 square feet.

As a result of the 1995 Evaluation & Appraisal Report, the Local Planning Agency recommends that
the City amend its Comprehensive Plan, in order to retain the previous land use designation of Parks
and Open Space for the area known as the Jean H. Willis Park, and to implement the Parks and Open
Space land use designation for the Sylva Martin Building and its front parking lot, hereafter to be
referred to as the Sylva G. Martin Park.
Relocate the parking lot in front of the Sylva Martin Building and restore the historic Palm
Crescent park.
Benefits: The park will eradicate the visual blight created by the asphalt parking lot. The park will
beautifully showcase the Sylva Martin Building, providing a respite from the drudgery of urbanized
areas and inspiring a sense of city pride.
Originally, the Jean H. Willis park, located on 61st Court, across from City Hall, was envisioned to be
relocated to the front parking lot of the Sylva Martin Building, Public concern over this proposal,
however, has led the local planning agency to propose that the Jean H. Willis Park retain its previous
land use designation, and to create the Sylva G. Martin Park by designating the area with the Parks
and Open Space land use designation,
DATA AND ANALYSIS I
The parks and open space land use category is intended to provide for public parky and open space
area, inclu&ng those associated with public schools. Sites designated parks and open space should
not be used for other purposes without an ainencbnent to this land use plan. Zoning regulations could
IE
permit park- and open space uses on sites not so designated by this plan. Land exchange may precede
amencbnent to this plan providing that levels of service established in the Recreation and Open Space
Element are maintained,- this provision is included for the purpose of providing for land use
designation of future park reconfiguration. Zoning regulations should permit parks - related building
projects on land designated as Parks and Open Space.
Adjacent Land Use Designations
Adjacent land uses are illustrated on the 1995 Future Land Use Map. The properties surrounding the
proposed sites are designated as transit oriented development district (TODD) and public institutional.
Effected Area
The affected properties consist of the current Jean H. Willis Park and the Sylva G. Martin Building
and its adjoining front parking lot. The area is legally described as follows:
Lots 17-20, inclusive, and the northern most 20 feet of lot 21, of the "Revised Poinciana Park"
Subdivision, according to the plat thereof, as recorded in Plat Book 41 at page 41, of the Public
Records of Dade County, Florida; and,

fim
1.26 acres
EM
This amendment will not cause any significant public facilities impact. But because the acreage of
the current Jean H. Willis Park was utilized to calculate the impacts of the Transit Oriented
Development District in the 96-ER 1, this amendment will cause a slight reduction to the calculated
impacts on public facilities.
Facilities Analysis
This is an analysis of the net decrease in public facility demand that will occur from changing the land
use designation of the Jean H. Willis Park from TODD to Parks and Open Space.
For the purposes of this amendment however, an assumption will be made that there is no increase in
sewer, water, drainage, solid waste, transportation, and recreation facility requirements negative or
positive, solely for the purpose of calculating impacts.
Conclusions
The preservation of the previous land use designation for the Jean H. Willis Park and the addition of
the Sylva G. Martin Park will greatly enhance the beauty of the City.

REQUEST
As a result of the 1995 Evaluation & Appraisal Report, the Local Planning Agency recommends that
the City amend its Comprehensive Plan, in order to implement the 1995 New Future Land Use Map
land use designation of Public Institutional Uses for those properties contained in the South Miami
Hospital Planned Unit Development.
The purpose of this amendment is to change the 1995 New Future Land Use Map designations for the
properties acquired by South Miami Hospital. The hospital acquired two buildings which were
adjacent to its main campus. The proposed Public Institutional Uses land use designation described
in the 1995 Evaluation & Appraisal Report is the land category most appropriate for this location.
Language which specifies the exact nature of the proposed Public Institutional Uses (Four-Story)
land use designation and all proposed land use designations is included as part of the EAR-Based
Comprehensive Plan Language Amendment (XV). This language is intended to be included in
the Future Land Use Categories contained within the Future Land Use Element of the
Comprehensive Plan. Language for the Public Institutional Uses designation is intended to
apply to the "Marshall Williamson Park" Reconfiguration Amendment (III) and the "South
Miami Hospital" Land Use Amendment (IX).
Proposed Use Designation
The 1995 New Future Land Use Map indicates the areas to be designated with the proposed land use
designation of Public Institutional Uses. The "South Miami Hospital" Amendment is one of two such
amendments which include the "Marshall Williamson Park" Reconfiguration Amendment (III). The
proposed Public Institutional Uses land use designation is described as follows:
The public institutional land use category is intended to provide for public schools, municipal
facilities, utilities, churches, temples, synagogues and similar uses. Areas designated public and
institutional should not be usedfor other purposes without an amendment to this plan. Zoning
regulations could permit public and institutional uses on sites not so designated by this plan.
Adjacent Land Use Designations
Adjacent land uses are illustrated on the 1995 Future Land Use Map. The properties adjacent to the
South Miami Hospital and its related service facilities are designated Public Institutional.
Effected Area
The subject properties of South Miami Hospital consist of the nine lots which were added to the main
campus. The whole is legally described as follows:
Lots 13 =21, inclusive, of the "W.A. H. Hobbs " Subdivision, according to the plat therof, as recorded
in Plat Book 4 at page 111, of the Public Records of Dade County, Florida.

Current Land Use Designations and Areas
The current land use designation for the subject properties of South Miami Hospital are indicated on
the 1989 Future Land Use map and include areas which are currently designated Medium Intensity
Office (Four-Story). This amendment is the recognition of the subject properties as part of South
Miami Hospital. The composition of the area is as follows:
Newly acquired Properties 1.67 acres
designated Medium Intensity
Office (4 stories)
PUBLIC FACILITIES IM[PACT
South Miami Hospital is an existing Planned Unit Development subject to a development order
issued prior to January 18, 1989 (adoption date of the Comprehensive Plan); and, is therefore,
exempted from concurrency review. In addition, the existing, approved overall floor area was
decreased in response to the inclusion of the land area encompassed by this amendment.
gpill
The purpose of this amendment is to change the Future Land Use Map to designate the boundaries for
the South Miami Hospital and its related service facilities as Public Institutional Uses (Four-Story) as
defined in the EAR. The 1995 Future Land Use Map indicates areas to be designated with the
proposed land use designations. Amendment Xv contains the language changes which amend the

Amended Plat of Blocks 1,2,&3 of Amended Plat of Palm Miami Heights according to the plat
thereof, recorded in Plat Book 38 at Page 52 of the Public Records of Dade County, Florida.
Existing Uses in Effected Area
The 1995 Existing Land Use Map shows the current use of the properties contained within the
proposed Townhouse Residential (Two-Story) land use designation area. The adjacent street system
is also illustrated.
The City expects that the existing parking lot will continue in its current form, and the amendment
will not impact public facilities. However, as a precaution, the City will calculate the maximum
impacts the property could have on public facilities if it were developed to its maximum potential.
The entire property is approximately 1.02 acres in area. Utilizing the 100% possibility for
development and redevelopment, a maximum of six units could be built.
Sewage Impact
The adopted LOS for sewage in the City of South Miami is 100 gallons per person per day.
Measurability is based on County measure of capacity at service facilities. Metro-Dade County
reports a total capacity of 318 mgpd is available for users, and the remaining capacity is
approximately 33.05 mgpd (see Appendix I). The projected demand from this amendment is
approximately 0.0014 mgpd, therefore, the remaining capacity decreases, but it is so insignificant that
after rounding to significant digits the remaining available capacity remains at 33.05, still well above
baseline standards. Generation rates reported below are from the American Water Works Association
(AMWA). Office generation rates are based upon the assumption that the occupancy of office space
will be one employee per 100 square feet (South Florida Building Code). Residential generation rates
are based upon the assumption that the average multi-family dwelling unit is 1200 square feet.

The 1995 New Future Land Use Map indicates the areas to be designated with the proposed land use
designation of Educational Uses. The proposed Educational Uses land use designation is described as
follows:
Adjacent Land Use Designations
Adjacent land use designations are illustrated on the 1995 New Future Land Use Map. The properties
surrounding the subject area are designated Single Family Residential and Parks and Open Space on
the 1995 Future Land Use Map.
Effected Area
The subject properties of South Miami Middle School and South Miami Elementary consist of the
parcel the School Board acquired from the City of South Miami, indicated in italics, and the portions
of the Schools' property which will be designated as Parks and Open Space. The whole is legally
described as follows:
The Northern 250ftet, more or less, of the Eastern 250 feet, more or less, of the Northwest 114 of the
Southeast 114 of the Northeast 114,
The Eastern 115 feet more or less, of the Southern 150 feet more or less, of the Northern 250 feet

XII. "LUDLAM OFFICE " LAND USE
REPLACEMENT AMENDMENT
As a result of the 1995 Evaluation & Appraisal Report, the Local Planning Agency recommends that
the City amend its Comprehensive Plan, in order to implement the 1995 Future Land Use Map
designation of Residential Office (Two-Story) for those properties identified as Ludlam Office.
by � i i MOMWO "'Wilm
DATA AND ANALYSIS
Adjacent Land Use Designations
Adjacent land use designations are illustrated on the 1995 Future Land Use Map. All of the
properties adjacent to Ludlam Office are designated as Public Institutional Uses on the 1995 Future
Land Use Maps.
51
Effected Area
The subject property of Ludlam Office is designated Low Intensity Office. The whole is legally
described as follows:
The South 1/2 of the Southeast 1/4 of the Southeast 1/4 of the Southeast 1/4 less the West 340 feet
thereof, of Section 26, Township 54, Range 40, Dade County, Florida.
Existing Uses in Effected Area
The 1995 Existing Land Use Map shows the current use of the property contained within the
proposed Residential Office area. The adjacent street system is also illustrated.
Current Land Use Designations and Areas
The current land use designation for the subject property is indicated on the 1989 Future Land Use
Map. This amendment proposes to delete the redundant land use designation of Low Intensity Office
from the Comprehensive Plan. The subject property is approximately 1.91 acres in area.
The change of the land use designation for the subject property causes a change in name only. The
current office building will continue to exist in its current form. Further-more, the change from Low
Intensity Office to the proposed Residential Office will decrease the permitted intensity. Therefore,
this amendment will not cause any public facilities impacts,
Transportation Impact
The proposed Ludlam Office Land Use Replacement Amendment will lower the permitted level of
development for this parcel. In addition, this area is served by Ludlam Drive (S.W. 67 Avenue) and
Sunset Drive (S.W. 72 Street). These roadways are designated by level-of-service "F."
Conclusion
The designation of Ludlam Office as Residential Office (Two-Story) will not jeopardize the levels-of-
service for the City of South Miami.

As a result of the 1995 Evaluation & Appraisal Report, the Local Planning Agency recommends that
the City amend its Comprehensive Plan, in order to implement the 1995 Future Land Use Map land
use designation of Single-Family Residential (Two-Story) for the area which was mistakenly
identified as the northern boundary of Girl Scout Park on the 1989 Future Land Use Map.
Language which specifies the exact nature of the proposed Single-Family Residential (Two-Story)
land use designation and all proposed land use designations, is included as part of the EAR-Based
Comprehensive Plan Language Amendment (XVI). This language is intended to be included in the
Future Land Use Categories contained in the Future Land Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan.
DATA AND ANALYSIS
Proposed Use Designa on
The 1995 Future Land use Map indicates the areas to be designated with the proposed land use
designation • Single-Family Residential. The proposed Single-Family Residential (Two -Story) land
use designation is described as follows:
Tire single-family land use category is intended to provide for one residential dwelling unit on
each parcel of land New parcels should have a minimum area of 10, 000 square feet. In areas
where existing platting is characterized by parcels larger than 10,000 square feet, zoning
regulations should be consistent with such parcel sizes provided that minimum parcel sizes need
not exceed one acre. In areas where existing platting is characterized by parcels smaller than
10, 000 square feet, zoning regulations should be consistent with surrounding parcel sizes. Sites
large enough to be subdivided into parcels of 10, 000 square feet or larger could be zoned
accordingly, but only if such zoning would be compatible with surrounding development.
Adjacent Land Use Designations
Adjacent land use designations are illustrated on the 1995 Future Land Use Map. The properties
surrounding the subject area are designated as Single-Family Residential, Educational Uses, and
Parks and Open Space on the 1995 Future Land Use Map.

XIV. "RED ROAD RESIDENTIAL OFFICE" CORRECTION
As a result of the 1995 Evaluation & Appraisal Report, the Local Planning Agency recommends that
the City amend its Comprehensive Plan, in order to implement the 1995 Future Land Use Map land
use designation of Residential Office (Two-Story) for those office properties along Red Road, which
were previously demarcated on the 1989 Future Land Use Map as Single-Family Residential.
The purpose of this amendment is to change the 1995 Future Land Use map designations on those
office properties which were designated as Single-Family Residential on the 1989 Future Land Use
Map. The proposed Residential Office (Two-Story) explained in the 1995 Evaluation & Appraisal
Report is the office category most appropriate for this location.

Existing Uses in Effected Area
The 1995 Existing Land use Map shows the current use of the properties contained within the
proposed Residential Office land use designation area. The adjacent street system is also illustrated.
Transportation Impact
The proposed Red Road Residential Office Correction Amendment land area is served by Red Road
(S.W. 57 Avenue) exclusively. This County roadway is designated by level-of-service "F"; therefore,
no traffic impact analysis is required for this roadway.
Conclusion
This amendment is not modifying the expected density and intensity of development within the
subject area, and it will not affect the current levels-of-service for the City of South Miami.
56
As a result of the 1995 Evaluation & Appraisal Report, the Local Planning Agency recommends
that the City amend its Comprehensive Plan, in order to implement the recommended language
amendments and map amendments, as set forth in the 1995 Evaluation & Appraisal Report.
I I 1 9
The purpose of this amendment is to (1) adopt revised language for the Goals, Objectives and
Policies sections of the Comprehensive Plan, including the Future Land Use Categories section,
(2) adopt a revised Capital Improvements Element Implementation section, (3) adopt the revised
1995 New Future Land Use Map in its entirety with those changes detailed in prior amendments,
(4) adopt the revised 1995 Future Traffic Circulation Map, and (5) adopt the revised and updated
1995 Monitoring, Updating and Evaluation Procedures, including the Public Participation Plan.
This first sub-section proposes specific changes to the existing language to update those policies
which have been identified in the EAR as achieved and to include new goals, policies and
objectives to reflect the City's Future Vision. Deletions are indicated by &Wke-eidt and additions
are indicated by underline. Explanatory text is [bracketed and double underlined].
FUTURE LAND USE ELEMENT
Goal I To preserve and enhance the City's small town character, especiall v the
guality of life in the existing single-family residential neighborhoods.
Objective 1.1 Eliminate uses inconsistent with the community character asset on
the Future Land Use Map. Elimination of such inconsistent uses shall be
accomplished with proper respect for the vested rights of property owners.
Amortization shall not be used to implement this objective.
Policy 1.1.3 There shall be no additional intrusion of the residential-office land use
category into residential areas designated on the Future Land Use Map.
57
Objective 1.2 Achieve redevelopment and renewal of the two blighted areas by 1998.
Such redevelopment and renewal shall be consistent with the Future Land
Use Map.
Policy 1.2.1 Working with County HUD, pursue revitalization of the Hardee Drive
neighborhood through "in-fill" new construction, substantial rehabilitation
of housing and streetscape improvements.
Policy 1.2.2 The City shall work with Commerce Lane property owners to achieve a
more attractive and functional commercial area. The City shall pursue an
incentives program for redevelopment of the Commerce Lane Area,
including mixed-use and flexible building heights in conjunction with a
Transit-Oriented Development District and the Metrorail transit station.
Objective 1.3 Preserve historic resources by experiencing no demolition or
reconfiguration of the specified resources identified in Figure 1.4.
Policy 1.3.2
Objective 1.4 Assure adequate public facilities to serve new development. See policy for
measurability.
,bjectiv e' 1.5 B) 1990 RehieVe Maintain and review • revised development code thiZ

the City as envisioned in the Hometown Plan.
Policy 2.1.2 Continue to Monitor parking usage to determine when and where
additional municipal parking areas should be provided.
Policy 2.1.3 Oppose street widenings that would either feed more through traffic into
the downtown area or adversely impact its pedestrian amenities in
downtown South Miami.
Policy 2.1.4 Discourage urban commercial sprawl by promoting growth in the core
area surrounding the Metrorail transit station by creating a district for new
growth which is contained and transit- oriented, thereby relieving the
pressure for commercial rezonings outside of this core area.
Goal 3 To achieve 'a tax base adequate to support a high level of municipal
services via increased mixed-use projects and flexible building heights in
conjunction with a Transit-Oriented Development District [TODD].
59
Objective 3.1 Achieve over the next five years * A —t-awffage an awnw&4 increase
in the tax base through new development and increased property values.
[Objective updated as a permanent provision.]
Policy 3.1.1 Zone for new development and redevelopment in accordance with the
Future Land Use Map, including multi-story and mixed-use districts.
Policy 3.1.2 Enforce the City's zoning and other land development codes.
Policy 3.1.3 Pursue traffic poli cies, parking policies and pedestrian amenity policies
that enhance downtown, and thereby the tax base.
Policy 3.1.4 Create a Transit-Oriented Development District within walking distance
of the Metrorail transit station to permit new development in a bounded
and delimited core area, including provisions for mixed-use projects,
flexible building heights and incentives to promote redevelopment.
The City of South Miami encourages development and redevelopment in
the Transit-Oriented Development District. Existing streetscape widths
along S.W. 62 Avenue and Sunset Drive will permit increased building
heights that are aesthetically-pleasing. The City encourages transparent
street-level retail with a mix of retail services, office use, office services
and residential uses in mixed-use and multi-story projects, as well as
encouraging a district-wide mix of land uses via multiple projects.
Goal 4 To preserve and enhance the natural environmental characteristics of
South Miami.
Objective 4.1 Coordinate future land uses with topography, soil conditions and the
availability of facilities and services. This objective is met if future land
uses and development intensities are consistent with the Future Land Use
Map and in compliance with other relevant development regulations of
the City.
Objective 4.2 Preserve natural resources whenever possible. Natural resources shall
Policy 4.2.3 The City shall assist the Metropolitan Dade County Department of
Environmental resource Management, in the orotection and Dreservation of
the Girl Scout Park as a "natural forest community " - for as long as the
park is designated by DE RM as a "natural forest community-"
Objective 4.3 Assist the County in making land available for sewerfacilities as
required; can not be measurable in advance of County plans.
Policy 4.3.1 Reserve land for pump stations if required by the County's extension of
sewer lines, which in turn is a water quality protection program.
Objective 4.4 Preserve floodplain areas viafl iii plain management and limiting
development within the Special Flood Hazard Area.
Policy 4.4.1 In coordination with the Transit-Oriented Development District, permit
more intense development only in those areas which are located outside of
the Special Flood Hazard Area.
Policy 4.4.2 Building density and intensity may be transferred from areas within the
Special Flood Hazard Area, in order to permit development within the
Transit- Oriented Development District, while reducing the permitted
intensities within the Special Flood Hazard Areas.
Policy 4.4.3 Develop a Transit-Oriented Development District and floodplain overlay
map in conjunction with new regulatory mechanisms to implement the
preservation of the floodplain and encourage development within the
Transit-Oriented Development District.
Note: 1) Objective 9J-5.006 (3)(b) 5 is not applicable since this is not a coastal corrunuaity.
2) Objective 9J-5.006 (3)(b) 6 is not applicable since this is not an Area of Critical State Concern.

This section contains language which explains the intent of the future land use map. Zoning
regulations which permit uses that are specifically permitted by this section and that also permit
uses that are less intensive than those permitted by this section may be deemed to be consistent
with the comprehensive plan. Zoning regulations that are more restrictive than the provisions of
this section may also be consistent with the comprehensive plan. The terms "less intensive" and
"more restrictive" in this section are not defined in this plan.
Planned unit development zoning regulations which permit buildings to be higher than stated in
this plan may be deemed consistent with this plan, provided such regulations do not permit the
overall floor area on a site to be greater than could occur if the height limits of this plan were
observed.
Nothing in this plan is intended, or has the effect of limiting or modifying the right of any
person to complete any planned development which has been issued a final planned development
order which is in full force and effect and where development has commenced and is continuing
in good faith, provided that all regulations and conditions as imposed by the City are met. Any
legally granted variances to a development code regulation which implements this plan shall be
deemed to be a legally granted variance to this plan and as such shall be deemed to be consistent
with this plan. This variance provision, shall, apply to all elements and sections of this plan.
Vested Rights: Nothing contained herein shall be construed as affecting validly existing vested
rights. It shall be the duty and responsibility of the applicant alleging vested rights to
affirmatively demonstrate the legal requisites of vested rights. Vested rights shall require a
demonstration to the Mayor and City Commission of the City of South Miami that the applicant
(1) has relied in good faith, (2) upon some act or omission of the government, and (3) has made
such a substantial change in position or incurred such extensive obligations and expenses to the
applicant's detriment as to create an undue hardship. The mere existence of zoning contrary to
the South Miami Comprehensive Plan shall not be determined to vest rights. Developmental
actions where all required approvals have been received, or orders or permits that preceded the
official adoption of this Comprehensive Plan shall remain in full force and effect but subject to
all applicable zoning laws and regulations of the City. The land development regulations to be
adopted shall provide for specific standards to carry out these concerns.

OLD LANGUAGE TO BE DELETED:
Specialty Retail/Residential (Four-Story)
The specialty retail/residential land use category is intended to facilitate maintenance of the basic character of
the Sunset commercial area. Zoning regulations that implement the category should require comparison retail
uses at grade level. Restaurants and a limited range of non-comparison retail uses could also be permitted.
Banks and similar uses that do not reinforce the comparison retail environment should be prohibited or very
strictly limited. Zoning regulations should permit either retail and/or office uses at the second floor, if a second
floor is built. Zoning regulations should permit only residential uses at the third and fourth levels, if third and
fourth levels are built. This language shall not be construed to require the development of second, third or
fourth floors in conjunction with a first floor.
Mixed-Use Commercial/Residential (Four-Story)
The mixed-use commercial/residential land use category is intended to provide for different levels of retail
uses, office uses, retail and office services, and residential dwelling units with an emphasis on mixed-use
development that is characteristic of traditional downtowns. Permitted heights and intensities shall be set forth
in the Land Development Code. Regulations regarding the permitted height, density and intensity in zoning
districts for areas designated as mixed-use commercial/residential shall provide incentives for transit- oriented
development and mixed-use development. Zoning regulations shall reinforce "no widenings" policy set forth in
the Traffic Circulation Element by encouraging use of Metrorail system.

Goal I To maintain an overall transportation system which does not adversely
affect residential neighborhoods but which provides for the circulation
needs of all sectors of the community in a safe, efficient, cost-effective
and aesthetically pleasing manner.
The above level-of-service notwithstanding, development in the City shall be governed by
additional terms and conditions agreed to by the City of South Miami and the Florida
Department of Community Affairs (DCA). These terms and conditions are agreed to by the City
and incorporated as part of this plan in order to facilitate a finding by the DCA that this
Comprehensive Plan is in compliance with Florida law and the Florida Administrative Code.
The additional terms and conditions agreed to by the City are as follows:
L Until December 3 1, 1995, the peak hour level-of-service standard for US I shall be 115
percent of the peak hour traffic count in 1989. The City shall use the peak hour traffic
data for 1989 available from the Florida Department of Transportation.
2. After December 31, 1995, the peak hour level-of-service standard shall be 150 percent of
D capacity for US 1.
3. The peak hour level-of-service standard for Bird Road shall be 120 percent of E capacity.
4: The City will not issue any new-construction permit which would have the effect of
lowering the level-of-service on Bird Road or US 1 below the levels specified in "1," 11211
and "3 " above unless such permits are issued pursuant to a development of regional
impact (DRI) approval granted prior to the effective date of this plan. -
The City of South Miami views these standards as more restrictive than desirable or appropriate
for the City, but accepts them as the most permissive standards that are likely to win approval
from the Florida Department of Community Affairs. The City believes more permissive
standards are in order for the following reasons:
a. There is only a small segment of US I in the City of South Miami.
b, The City has virtually no control over most of the development which does now or will
in the future load trips onto US 1.
67
C. There is a Metrorail station in the heart of the City's only intensive development area;
this Metrorail station puts extraordinary commuter rail transit service at hand. Further,
development of the area around the Metrorail station will further state and local goals for
"in-filling" already urbanized areas and reducing urban sprawl.
d. Bus service with 30 minute headway is available along Bird Road. The availability of
this transit service justifies the above level-of-service designation on Bird Road.
e. in enacting this plan, the City has very substantially reduced the amount of development
that was permitted under the plan effective prior to 1989 and its implementing zoning
ordinance.
The City understands that the Florida Department of Community Affairs believes reasons "a"
through "e" are sufficient justification for the standards set forth in "1" through "4" above, but
that more permissive standards would not be consistent with the City's responsibility to help
minimize traffic congestion.

Five-Year Schedule of Capital Improvements
As indicated in the Capital Improvement Element, South Miami's Comprehensive plan does not
indicate any deficiencies that require improvement during the fiscal 1995-1999 planning period.
Engineering and architectural studies performed during the period may pinpoint deficiencies and
corrective cost estimates for future needs to be implemented during the fiscal 1995-1999 period
(for example: sidewalks, drainage). The City does not endorse County road widening proposals;
therefore, street resurfacing is the only project which may be included in the C.I.P. program.

The Future Traffic Circulation Map presented as part of this report is identical to the map in the
adopted comprehensive plan (Attachment 2 ). The City's adopted policy of no road widenings
requires that the number of travel lanes, as adopted in 1989, remain the same; therefore, the
1995 Future Traffic Circulation is the same as the 1989 Future Traffic Circulation Map.
NEW MONITORING 41TrE5t*,tt_TJ i T--M- k I
This section of the report establishes the future public participation and regular review schedule
for the continued monitoring, updating and evaluation of the Comprehensive Plan. Procedures
presented in this section are essentially the same as the 1989-1994 planning cycle procedures.
Citizen Participation
In conjunction with one of the semi-annual plan amendment cycles, the Planning Board will
conduct a public workshop on the Comprehensive Plan. A status report will be provided by the
staff and then citizen comments will be solicited. This meeting will be publicized by legal
notice in a newspaper of general circulation with additional effort for an article or public
announcement. The Planning Board will submit a report on the status of the Plan to the City
Manager and the City Commission, which may be accompanied by recommended amendments.
Data and Objectives Update
As a part of the public workshop, pertinent and measurable objectives will be the subject of
review and comment by the staff preparing the status report. In addition, the staff will review
appropriate Metropolitan Dade County publications and U.S. Census data, as these documents
become available. Highlights and summaries of the documents should be included in the report.
Five-Year Review
The City Manager will designate the individual(s) responsible for the preparation of the five-
year Evaluation & Appraisal Report [EAR] in conformance with the statutory requirements set
forth in the Florida Statutes with special emphasis on the objectives and policies. The EAR will
pinpoint obstacles to the implementation of the objectives and policies set forth in the Plan.
Revised Objectives and Policies
The planning staff will prepare draft amendments to the goals, objectives and policies based on
the above, focusing on the future planning cycle. The citizen participation procedures adopted
by the City Commission, contained in the Public Participation Plan, will be utilized in amending
the adopted sections of the Comprehensive Plan including the goals, objectives and policies.

As a result of the 1995 Evaluation & Appraisal Report, the Local Planning Agency recommends
that the City amend its Comprehensive Plan, in order to implement the required amendments to
the Traffic Circulation Element to meet the new criteria as a Transportation Element, as set forth
in the 1995 Evaluation & Appraisal Report.
MUFURMIM
Pursuant to Section 339.175, Florida Statutes, and Rule 9J-5.019, Florida Administrative Code,
the City of South Miami, as a jurisdiction within the urbanized area of a Metropolitan Planning
Organization, is required to prepare a Transportation Element which incorporates and replaces
any existing Traffic Circulation, Mass Transit, Ports, Aviation and related facilities Element(s).
The City of South Miami's adopted Comprehensive Plan contains a Traffic Circulation Element
but does not contain a Mass Transit or a Ports, Aviation and related facilities Element. The City
works closely with Metropolitan Dade County regarding the County's Mass Transit system, but
the City is not the service provider or entity with jurisdiction. In addition, the City contains no
ports, aviation or related facilities within its boundaries or in the surrounding adjacent areas.
DATA AND ANALYSIS
Pursuant to review of the requirements and provisions of Section 339.175, Florida Statutes, and
the requirements and provisions of Rule 9J-5.019, Florida Administrative Code, the City hereby
determines that in the absence of City-operated mass transit, ports, aviation and related facilities,
the existing Traffic Circulation Element addresses the applicable requirements and provisions of
the Section 339.175, Florida Statutes, and Rule 9J- 0.019, Florida Administrative Code, with the
exception of nomenclature. The City, therefore, submits the following language amendments to
the Traffic Circulation Element to comply with the requirement for a Transportation Element.
The following additions are proposed to the language of the existing Traffic Circulation Element
in order to implement said Element as the new Transportation Element:

Response: A map depicting the existing significant parking facilities is attached
to this report as Figure 1 under the section addressing the data
requirements of Rule 9J- 5- 19(2)(a)l.d., F.A.C.
Figure 1 shows the significant public parking facilities located
throughout the City of South Miami. These facilities include the public
park- and -ride garage located at the South Miami Metrorail transit
station, South Miami Hospital, City Hall, Shops at Sunset Place,
schools, parks and recreational areas.
There are also two areas in downtown South Miami located between
SW 59th Avenue and SW 57th Court along SW 73th street and SW
74th street which has long term meter, 5 hour, street parking. These
areas provide the necessary parking for consumers which shop the
downtown commercial shops which do not have the space for on site
parking. The parking areas are owned and operated by the City of
South Miami.
Response: The only intermodal terminal within the City of South Miami is the
South Miami Metrorail transit station located on Sunset Drive and
South Dixie Highway. The roadway network of South Miami most
directly related to the movement of freight is presented in Figure 2.
This figure depicts the City of South Miami's existing intermodal
terminal and access to the intermodal facility. Most of the significant
activities are located on Bird Road, South Dixie Highway, and Kendall
Drive.
3. (2)(a)10. The Major Public Transit Trip Generators and Attractors Based
Upon the Existing Land Use Map or Map Series;
Response: As shown in Figure 3, existing major traffic /trip generators and
attractors are located throughout the City of South Miami. But for the
most part, the majority of them are concentrated in the downtown
area. For presentation purposes, -these major generators and
attractors have been categorized as: , government centers,
hospitals /medical complexes, shopping centers /major retail areas,
attractions /cultural facilities, parks /recreational areas, and
employment centers. Within the City of South Miami they are: South
Miami Hospital, Shops at Sunset Place, Ludlam Elementary School,
South Miami Elementary, - _Fairchild Elementary,- City Hall, Dante
Fascell Park, Fuch's Park, Marshall Williamson Park, Murray Park,
the Y.M.C.A., the Metrorail transit station, and the downtown area's
retail shops.
4. (3)(d) An analysis of the growth trends and travel patterns and
interactions; between land uses and transportation, the
compatibility between the future land use and transportation
element;
Response: The growth trends for the City of South Miami, which are directly
related to its travel patterns and interactions, have occurred in the
area. surrounding and adjacent to the City's downtown area and its
major arterials. This area has experienced the largest population
increase within the City's boundary. This is indicative of where most
of the City's transportation improvements have occurred. Also, most
of the City's major arterial and travel patterns, which are connected
to the - downtown area, have also been directly - effected by the
population growth. This area has become congested and the traffic
pattern has increased dramatically.
Figure 4 illustrates the division of the County into seven major and 23
minor statistical zones used by Dade County Department of Planning,
Development,_ and Regulations. South Miami is located in statistical
area 5.3 and a small portion of 5.6. The distribution of population
growth by zone is detailed in Table 1.- Within the City of South Miami,
there was actually a population decrease of about 1 percent between
1980 and 1990. On the other hand, from 1990 to 1994 the population
increased about 2 percent.
As shown in Figure 5, Existing Average Daily Traffic Volumes, U.S. 1
is carrying the heaviest volumes of traffic through the City. U.S. 1 has
an average traffic volume of 68,670 vehicles per day (vpd) north of
Kendall Drive and 71,663 vpd north of Sunset Drive. Bird Road with
45,693 vpd has the next highest average daily traffic volumes..
Sunset Drive and Kendall Drive also have significant traffic loadings.
Heavy traffic volumes on these streets are primarily due to commuter
trips between downtown Miami and suburban locations to the west
and southwest.
Since the Land Use Plan calls for a reduction in land use intensities
(particularly commercial), no significant increase will occur in traffic
generated by South Miami. In fact, the City is proposing to develop
a shuttle system that would link the eastern and western portions of
the City together, promoting public transit and therefore lessening the
amount of traffic in the downtown area (Figure 8). The principal goal
of the land use plan is to avoid the adverse impacts that accompany
street widening.
It is the legislative judgment of the South Miami City Commission that
such widening would not necessarily result in improved levels of
service; such widening could just as likely result in higher volumes of
traffic at lower levels of service. Higher volumes of traffic would
adversely affect the residential character of South Miami and further
congest downtown South Miami. It is in the best interest of South
Miami that this does not happen. Instead, efforts should encourage
commuter traffic to use high design arterials that do not pass through
the City of South Miami.
The future mass transit systems expansion and development for
Dade County does not directly effect the City of South Miami. None
of these proposed rapid transit corridors are located within its
boundary limits. Instead they expand to the north and south of the
City. The only improvements to the system within the City of South
Miami is that City proposing to develop a shuffle system which would
link the eastern and western portions of the City together. The
system will run along a 1.8 mile long complete loop with stops
strategically located in order to serve all aspects of the downtown
area (Figure 8). The development of this shuttle system will
encompass the Metrorail station as part of its route and will promote
public transit, reduce the demand for parking in the downtown area,
and reduce the volume of traffic on the roadways.
High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lanes, also know as Diamond lanes
or Carpool lanes; are reserved exclusively for carpools, vanpools and
public transit vehicles during weekday mornings and evening rush
hours. There are currently no HOV lanes within the boundary limits
of the City of South Miami.
6. (3)(f) An analysis of projected transportation system needs;
Response: The major provider of transit in the City of South Miami is the Metro
Dade Transit Agency which operates the county wide bus system and
the elevated rapid transit system (Metrorail).
Bus routes directly serving South Miami include Routes 37 40, 48,
52, 56, 57, 67, and 72. Figure ,7 depicts the existing transits routes in
the City of South Miami. No single route serve South Miami
exclusively, rather portions of routes traverse the City as part of a
larger area wide route.
The Metrorail does have a transit station within the boundary limits of
the City of South Miami located at U.S. 1 and Sunset Drive. The
existing bus routes can be accessed from this station. This station
also has a park- and -ride garage which provides parking and
transportation needs of commuters.
The City is also proposing to develop a shuttle system which would
link the eastern and western portions of the City of South Miami
together as shown in Figure 8. Currently the City is divided by South
Dixie Highway (US -1), a six lane divided principal arterial that is
characterized by a -heavy volume of traffic which makes it virtually
unfriendly to pedestrians. The development of this shuttle system will
encompasses the Metrorail station as part of its route and will
promote public transit, reduce the demand for parking in the
downtown area, and reduce the volume of traffic on the roadways.
Response: The County's current adopted level of service standards for roads and
transit facilities maintain an overall transportation system which does
not adversely effect residential neighborhoods, but which provides for
the circulation needs of all sectors of the community in a safe,
efficient, cost effective, and aesthetically pleasing manner.
The City will maintain the current level of service standards by not
issuing any new construction permits that might have a negative
effect on the level of service.
• The analysis shall explicitly address and document interna
consistency;
Response: All the components of the CDMP have been coordinated in order to
achieve internal consistency. The proposed goals, objectives and
policies of the Transportation Element have been fully coordinated to,
among other things:
Promote Land use design which promote transit usage.
Promote development and redevelopment of underutilized
10,
11
4
land;
Provide access to existing and planned major trip generators
and attractors.
Meet or exceed the adopted minimum level of service standard
(4)(b)4. , Provide transit services based on generatorslattractors
Response:; Most of the transit trip generators and attractors within the City of
South Miami are located in the downtown area and along US -1.
Within this area there is the South Miami Metrorail Transit Station
which is in the heart of the City's only intensive development area.
This Metrorail Station puts commuter rail transit service at hand.
As shown in Figure 8, the City is also proposing to develop a shuttle
system which would link the eastern and western portions of the City
of South Miami together. The route will be 1.8 miles long with a
complete loop time of approximately 20 minutes including eight stops.
These stops will be strategically located in order to serve all aspects
of the downtown area. The development of the shuttle system that
encompasses the Metrorail station as part of its route promotes public
transit, reduces the demand for parking in the downtown area, and
reduces the volume of traffic on the roadways. It will also provide the
much needed link between the South Miami community and the rest
of the county.
There is also an existing Bus Route System which directly serves the
City of South Miami as shown in Figure- 7. This Bus service is
available along the major transit generators and attraction with some
services having 30 minutes headway.
(4)(c)3. Establish parking strategies to promote transportation
goalslobjectives;
Response: The main transportation goal for the City of South Miami is that it will
maintain an overall transportation system which does not adversely
affect residential neighborhoods but which provides for circulation
needs of all sectors of the Community in a safe, efficient, cost
effective and aesthetically pleasing manner. The City is proposing
to do this by developing a shuttle system which would link the eastern
and western portions of the City of South Miami together (Figure 8).
The development of the shuttle system that encompasses the
12. (4)(c)7•
13
Metrorail; station as part of its route promotes public transit and will
greatly reduce the demand for parking in the downtown area and
reduce the volume `of traffic on the roadways.
Response: To improve system efficiency and enhance safety it is important that
we facilitate traffic flow and reduce adverse traffic impact. The best
means of achieving this is by avoiding any major street widening. As
a direct result we will protect and enhance both the residential
neighborhood and the downtown area.
Currently the City is divided by South Dixie highway (US -1) a "six -lane
divided principle arterial. This roadway is characterized by heavy
volume of traffic which makes it virtually unfriendly to pedestrians.
The development of a shuttle system which would link the eastern
and western portions of the City together is being proposed by the
City of South Miami. This shuttle system will have stops strategically
located to serve all aspects of the downtown area. This is depicted in
Figure 8.
(4)(c)9. Establish land use, site and building design guidelines for
accessability to transit facilities;
Response: Due to the limited number of vacant parcels and little anticipated
demolition of existing households, the total number of households will -
increase only slightly throughout the 10 year planned period.
From the Existing Land Use Map, it can obviously be seen that most
of the housing is located around the downtown area of South Miami.
This area is composed mostly of commercial land use.
The City is also proposing to develop a shuttle system which would
link the eastern and western portions of the City of South Miami
together (Figure 8). The existing and proposed transit system allows
accessibility to the downtown area from all parts of the City of South
Miami. Therefore expansion of housing does not need to be located
within a small concentrated area since there is transit access
throughout the City.

mobility goals; and
Response: n/a
15, (4) (c) 11
Coordinate with other local governments for area wide
transportation coordination.
Response:
Please refer to the adopted Intergovernmental Coordination Element.
16. (4)(b)2.
Coordinate transportation system with FLUM;
Response:
Update existing policy.
Objective 1.2
Achieve coordination of the Future Land Use Plan and this element
See policies for measurability.
Policy 1.2.1
Avoid any major street widening, in conformance with the Land Use
Plan recommendations that call for protecting and enhancing both the
residential neighborhoods and downtown. The Land Use Plan calls
for a reduction in land use intensities. No significant increase will
occur in traffic generated.
Continue to provide accessibility to transportation services for all parts
of South Miami, via its extensive bus routes, expanding where
necessary to meet the future transportation needs.
Encourage commuter traffic to use high design arterials that do not
pass through the City of South Miami.
Policy 1.2.2
Continue to review and redefine the land development code to assure
adequate on-site parking and traffic flow through site plan reviews.
17. (4)(c)1.
Establish level of service standards at peak hour for roads and
transit facilities;
Response:
Please refer to Chapter 2 of the Comprehensive Plan;
Existing Traffic Conditions - Level of Service Standards.
18. (5)(a)1 .e.
Parking facilities that are required to achieve mobility goals;
Response:
Most of the commercial area is located along US -1 -in the downtown
area of the City of South Miami. Most of these shops have their own
designated parking areas. But some shops on the other hand are not
equipped with their own parking and therefore must rely on municipal
parking facilities. These facilities supply the necessary parking
spaces for the City's parking, as shown in Figure 13. By providing
ample parking spaces, the required mobility goals will be met.
19. (5)(a)4.
TCEA, as proposed; and
20. (5)(a)9.
Intermodal terminals and access to such facilities.
Response:
Refer to TCEA.

Red Road and U.S. 1 are operating in the LOS "E" and "F" ranges.
Existing levels of service are
detailed in Table 2 -5. Table 2 -5 also contains traffic volume, LOS "D"
capacity, and other
technical data on which the level of service calculations are based.
