(b) Be sufficiently complete to indicate such land acquisition, demolition and removal of structures, rede- velopment. improvements, and rehabilitation as may be proposed to be carried out in the community redevelop- ment area: zoning and planning changes, if any; land uses: maximum densities: and building requirements. (c) Provide for the development of affordable hous- ing in the area. or state the reasons for not addressing in the plan the development of affordable housing in the area. The county, municipality, or community redevelop- ment agency shall coordinate with each housing author - ity or other affordable housing entities functioning within the geographic boundaries of the redevelopment area, concerning the development of affordable housing in the area. (3) The county, municipality, or community redevel- opment agency may itself prepare or cause to be pre- pared a community redevelopment plan, or any person or agency, public or private. may submit such a plan to a Community redevelopment agency. Prior to its consid- eration of a community redevelopment plan, the commu- nity redevelopment agency shall submit such plan to the local planning agency of the county or municipality for review and recommendations as to its conformity with the comprehensive plan for the development of the county or municipality as a whole. The local planning agency shall submit its written recommendations with respect to the conformity of the proposed community redevelopment plan to the community redevelopment agency within 60 days after receipt of the plan for review. Upon receipt of the recommendations of the :ocal planning agency, or. if no recommendations are received within such 60 days, then without such recom- mendations. the community redevelooment agency may 1253 0 SECTION I: TASKS Actions Necessary for the Proper Creation of a Community Redevelopment Agency for the City of South Miami under Chapter 163, Part III Florida Statutes, the establishment of the Tax Increment Funding mechanism, and the establishment of a Redevelopment Trust Fund as required in a Chapter 125 county such as Dade. It should be noted that there are several actions listed below that are not required to proceed in a set order. The events that take place during the adoption process will dictate changes in some instances. Action One: Notice to Taxing Authorities Section 163.346, F.S.: Notice shall be provided to all taxing authorities which levy ad valorem taxes on property within the boundaries of the proposed Redevelopment Area. This shall be completed by registered mail at least 15 days prior to the adoption of any resolution V 1W, ,. r A B, � or ordinance required under Sections 163.355, 163.356, 163.357 or 163.387, F.S.. Action Two: Finding of Necessity As per Section 163.355, F.S., the City must adopt a resolution declaring the existence of slum and blight and stating the necessity of redevelopment in the public interest. While the statute only requires the adoption of a resolution to meet this requirement, it is prudent to have an expert conduct a survey to document the Finding of Necessity and to accept expert testimony in a public hearing as to the existence of the need for redevelopment based upon the survey and other statutorily required issues. The 1980 Lakeland case regarding the validity of redevelopment bonds that the CRA issued is a good case in point. The Finding of Necessity shall be included in a future County- adopted resolution and shall be part of the adopted Redevelopment Plan (preferably as an appendix). This "Finding" relate to a specified geographic area which shall be the Community Redevelopment Area and shall be described in a legal description. This legal description shall follow all documentation and actions relating to the establishment of a Community Redevelopment Agency and Tax Increment Financing. It is important to consider tax code issues regarding tax free or taxable redevelopment bonds based on the size of the area and the total taxable value generated by the area as it relates to the City as a whole. Action Three: Resolution by the Dade County Board of County Commissioners A resolution shall be adopted by the Dade County Board of County Commissioners delegating certain authority to the City regarding community redevelopment powers. This is required in Section 163.410 F.S.. It should be noted that the City will still need further approval from the Dade County Board of County Commissioners for the adoption of its Redevelopment Plan, the establishment of Tax Increment Financing, and the ratification of an Interiocai Agreement specifying the City's powers, reporting requirements, establishing the working relationship with the County, and any limitations that may be placed upon the expenditure of funds or other redevelopment activity. This is to be negotiated prior to final approval of all CRA- related requirements by the County. The successful negotiation of the Interlocal Agreement will be key to the City's chances of accomplishing its redevelopment goals. Amendments to the statute made by the Legislature in 1994 are important to this process. It should be noted that this resolution can be adopted at several points during the initial stages of setting up a CRA and TIF. This is not the final action required by the Dade County Board of County Commissioners. Action Four: A Resolution of the City Council A resolution shall be adopted by the City Council as per Section 163.356 F.S. which shall state the need for a CRA and declare itself to be a CRA, and it is recommended that it also declare its members to be the board of said agency. This resolution may also designate the officers of said agency. Action Five: The Proposed Community Redevelopment Plan The proposed Community Redevelopment Plan shall be submitted formally by the Agency to the Local Planning Agency (LPA) of the City. This Board can be the official LPA or an existing advisory LPA. The LPA has 60 days from the receipt of the Community Redevelopment Plan to comment on the conformity of the Community Redevelopment Plan to the City Comprehensive Plan that is in existence at the time the Community Redevelopment Plan is received. It should be noted that although Section 163.360(3), F.S. allows the Community Redevelopment Agency to move forward to WA V :)R. the public hearing with the City Council in the event that 60 days passes without comment by the SPA, it is still statutorily incumbent that the Community Redevelopment Plan be in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan. If a Comprehensive Plan amendment is required, it needs to be addressed in a timely manner in order for the process to continue in a timely and proper fashion. These requirements must be addressed prior to Action Six. Action Six: Adoption of the Community Redevelopment Plan by Agency Resolution The adoption of the Community Redevelopment Plan by the Agency is established under Section 163.360(4), F.S. and is the step prior to submitting the Plan to the City Council and each affected taxing authority. The actual adoption of a resolution is optional. The plan can be forwarded by a simple majority vote of the Council or may be submitted through staff channels. Action Seven: Notice to Taxing Authorities prior to public hearing Notice to Taxing Authority(s) by registered mail at leastl5 days is required prior to the public hearing at which the adoption of the Community Redevelopment Plan and the creation of a TIF mechanism and fund by adoption of the statutorily required 0 ordinance will be considered. Public notice is required prior to this hearing and shall contain the Information required by Section 163.360(5), F.S.. Action Eight: Approval of Community Redevelopment Plan by City Council After the public hearing is held, the Comprehensive Plan and LPA issues are resolved, and timely notice and required public comment are conducted, the City Council may adopt an ordinance approving the Community Redevelopment Plan. This can be accomplished if the Council finds that all conditions outlined in Section 163.360(6)A -D, F.S. are satisfied. This ordinance shall also provide for the City to submit the approved Plan to the Dade County Board of County Commissioners. Action Nine: Public Notice Concerning City's Intent to Adopt an Ordinance Establishina the Trust Fund As pursuant to Section 163.387 F.S., the City shall publish a Notice of its Intent to adopt an ordinance providing for the appropriation of Tax Increment Financing to a newly established Redevelopment Trust Fund. It is recommended that this notice also provide conditions relating to future redevelopment bonds, expenditure of trust funds, 0 delegation to the agency to administer said funds, providing for an annual audit, and providing an effective date. Action Ten: Ordinance Adopted by the City Establishina the Redevelopment Trust Fund and Providing for the Appropriation of Tax increment Financing The City shall adopt an ordinance that addresses all activities as presented in Section 163.387 F.S. and expressed in the public notice. Action Eleven: Resolution to Re -Adopt Community Redevelopment Plan if Necessary If necessary, the City has the opportunity at this juncture to adopt a resolution amending the original Community Redevelopment Plan if the Plan needs to be modified to conform with the negotiations related to the Interlocal Agreement with Dade County or to conform with the City's Comprehensive Plan. It is often the case that Dade County will request some changes which may be minor, such as language, policies, or coordination statements, or requested changes may be more significant. While these minor changes may not effect the overall thrust or design of the City's Plan, it is incumbent upon the City to incorporate them and re -adopt the new Plan by resolution prior to submitting it to the County. It is key to understand that the Comprehensive Plan can be modified to conform to the proposed 101 J , Community Redevelopment Plan if desired and acceptable. In many instances, adjustments are made to both plans to allow for the conformity requirement to be met. It is important to note that the Redevelopment Plan is not official at this point due to the fact that the County has yet to ratify it. The advantage of this is that it allows the City to amend and modify its proposed Community Redevelopment Plan while it is a work -in- progress without showing progress. This resolution adopting the Plan shall also contain a statement directing the City Manager to submit the Plan to the Board of County Commissioners for its approval. Action Twelve: Resolution by Dade County Declaring Redevelopment Area Boundaries. Establishing a Need for a CRA. and Accepting the finding of Necessity The Dade County Board of County Commissioners shall adopt a resolution accepting the Finding of Necessity analysis and the existence of slum and blighted areas within the City, concurring with the boundaries of the Redevelopment Area, finding that redevelopment is in the interests of the citizens of South Miami, and establishing the need for a Community Redevelopment Agency within the City of South Miami. F � Action Thirteen: Resolution by the Dade County Board of County Commissioners Adopting the South Miami Community Redevelopment Plan Affirming Delegation of Certain Powers to the City Council for Redevelopment Activities and Approving the Interlocal Agreement between the County and the City CRA This resolution by Dade County shall formally adopt the South Miami Community Redevelopment Plan and the negotiated Interlocal Cooperation Agreement that will govern the redevelopment activities and relationship between the City /CRA and the County for future years. It is stressed once again that the successful negotiation of an Interlocal Agreement which will allow the City the necessary powers, resources and flexibility to carry out its goals area essential. Action Fourteen: Ordinance Establishing a Redevelopment Trust Fund and Providing an Appropriation of County Funding under TIF This ordinance establishes a Redevelopment Trust Fund for which Tax increment Funds are to be used in conjunction with other revenues to finance the redevelopment activities in the prescribed Redevelopment Area and expressed in the adopted Community Redevelopment Plan. The ordinance also sets forth the County's obligation to annually appropriate Tax Increment Funds to the City of South Miami's Redevelopment Trust Fund. It is key that a 1994 C�� R,14 amendment to the Florida Statute gives the County the flexibility to negotiate a TIF payment between 50% and 95% of the calculated Tax Increment. This is further reason to note the importance of the negotiations that take place under the Interlocai Agreement as well as the political discretion possessed by the Dade County Commission. This is an issue that should be discussed at the highest policy levels of the City between the Mayor and Council, City Manager, City Attorney, and Redevelopment Consultant. Action PRteen - part one: Resolution by City Council Adopting the Terms and Conditions of the Interlocai Cooperation Agreement with the Dade County Board of County Commissioners Action fifteen - oart two: Resolution by Community Redevelopment Agency Adopting the Terms and Conditions of the Interlocai Cooperation Agreement wifih the Dade County Board of County Commissioners In the City Council's version of this resolution, the responsibilities that are required by the Interlocal Agreement should be assigned to the Community Redevelopment Agency as the Council sees to be in the best interest of successful redevelopment. In the CRA version, they should accept the responsibilities delegated to them by the Council and acknowledge the limitation of their powers as prescribed by Section 163.358, F.S.. �IR r, Issue One: Public Input In order for a community to have ownership of any plan, it is key that as many individuals and groups as possible participate, contribute, and argue over the contents of that plan. The investment in time and resources at the initial stages of this process will be key to our success and will demonstrate that the professional staff and consultants serving the City are making every effort to serve the public. Precedence for broad community involvement was set in the Fall 1994 charette workshops which led to the creation of the "The 'Hometown Plan' Area 2." Approximately 200 citizens and many community organizations were involved in this effort. While there is not a need to replicate all that has been done in the past, we must make every effort to keep the public informed as to how previous plans and their input from the past are helping to decide the City's redevelopment area's future. The Mayor and Council will be key in identifying community leaders and organizations that the Redevelopment Consultant should meet with DR"." I-* � personally to insure their involvement and understanding of the City's efforts. Routine briefings with the Council members should be conducted by the City Manager and the Redevelopment Consultant. Issue Two: A Comprehensive Approach Cities often make the mistake of hiring consultants one-by -one to accomplish piece -by -piece the series of tasks that make up an overall successful redevelopment strategy. As stated in the City's initial Request for Letters of Qualification, the ideal consultant "must have successfully facilitated the approval of a Community Redevelopment Area application or comparable project through Metro -Dade, including interlocal agreement." Individuals who have accomplished all of what the City is looking for are rare. In utilizing one primary consultant, there allows for one focus point. Groups of consultants often lead to no one in charge of getting the work done: and therefore, no one responsible. In the City of South Miami, it is necessary to review and evaluate the role of all of the pieces of the redevelopment /community development puzzle that currently exist. Obvious documents such as the Land Development 12g i i'C."`. ]' . Code, Comprehensive Plan, Evaluation and Appraisal Report, and subsequent amendments, and the budget need to be understood thoroughly as well as reports and plans such as T.O.D.D., the "Hometown Plan," and other activities that are unique to South Miami. This cannot be accomplished with a piecemeal approach. Issue Three: The Plan's Philosophy Programs vs Pictures For a redevelopment plan to be successful, it must first truly reflect the desires of the community, and second, be realistic. Communities who rely on "pretty pictures" that overly specify exactly what has to happen at a given street corner or on a given vacant lot often face problems when it comes time for the private investment sector to step up and try to make the redevelopment goals of the plan a reality. It is imperative to have a balancing act between redevelopment programs and site specific planning. A plan that is either financially unrealistic or overly restrictive may turn out to be its own worst enemy. In the public forums conducted to gain community input towards the adoption of this plan, it will often be the case that citizens will argue whether a particular corner should have an arcade row of shops or a public park, but they will not argue about whether or not the redevelopment plan should J possess an attractive architectural standards program or a landscaping and beautification program. The latter of these options is more workable, more flexible, more acceptable to public and developers, and will get the job done more effectively. Issue Four: Technical Aspects of Redevelopment and TIF It is imperative that the City's Redevelopment Consultant invest information in the City management and staff so that when the consultant's responsibilities are complete, the City Council and the citizens will have resources they can draw from in- house. This allows for the City to expend very few precious tax dollars in the future on outside advice. Issue Five: Politics Once the community of South Miami has come together and the Council has adopted the proposed redevelopment plan, it is key that we successfully negotiate an interlocal agreement with Dade County that will allow for the City to have the power and resources it requires to reach its goals. Historically, the County's senior staff has attempted to laden a City with budget restrictions, reporting requirements, and "semi- approval" clauses that serve as a hindrance. The Redevelopment Consultant should be the point man in negotiating and lobbying for a successful interlocal agreement. The Mayor, Council and City Manager should remain in a DO DRAF' position of having only positive discussions with County staff and Dade Commissioners to the maximum degree possible. The Council will also be key in establishing contact with the appropriate County Commissioners. Issue Six• Timing In reviewing several of the responses to the City's initial RFQ, the time frame proposed by some of the consultants for the complete establishment of an agency, TIF and approved plan was twenty months. This is not acceptable. In order to capture a "healthy" TIF revenue stream in the City's first year, it is imperative that we accelerate this process if at all possible to nine months. It should be the City leadership's goal to give their citizens a fully established and operational redevelopment agency and TIF fund as a Christmas gift in .. 151 L Q--A fit" Of SOUMi mlaami 6130 Sunset Drive, South Miami.
