26THE CITY OF PLEASANT LIVING CITY OF SOUTH MIAMI OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER MEMORANDUM To: The Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners From: Steven Alexander, City Manager Date: September 15, 2015 Agenda Item NO.:.2Jt, CC DwaYlJe Williams, Planning Director SIJBIECr: An Ordinance Adopting a Small Scale Amendment to the Future Land Use Map of the Comprehensive Plan, amending the designation of the Marshall Williamson property located at approximately SW 61st Court and SW 64th Terrace, from Single Family Residential -Two Story to Multifamily Residential -Four Story. BACKGROUND: The City desires to foster development that benefits its residents and construction of affordable and workforce housing is an established goal in the City's Comprehensive Plan. In order to implement affordable housing projects such as the Madison Square project, it is necessary to provide for a sufficient level of development in order to qualify for funding opportunities. The increase of residential development intensities in targeted zoning districts to provide for the development of sustainable affordable and workforce housing is an appropriate means to implement these strategies and has been made necessary by the State of Florida's policies to encourage more provision of affordable housing opportunities by raising the minimum level of units to be able to qualify for tax credits which in most cases are essential to the funding of such developments. The land use map designation of the 1.01 acre (more or less) Marshall Williamson property located at approximately SW 61 st Court and SW 64th Terrace needs to be revised to enable the Madison Square project to be constructed with the appropriate minimum number of units within the entire project from Single Family Residential (2 Story) to Multiple-Family Residential (4-Story) on the Future Land Use Map. ANALYSIS: The proposed Future Land Use Map amendment to the Comprehensive Plan will modify the depiction of the existing land use category for the Marshall Williamson property from Single Family Residential (Two Story) to Multifamily Residential (Four Story). Although the Future Land Use Map change raises the possibility of the creation of a four story development, it is important to recognize that this land use category change is necessary to enable the property density on the Marshall Williamson property for the establishment of the minimum number of unites for the qualifying for the State tax credits for the project. The enabling of these units are critical to the Madison Square development.

Others said the pavers and the proposed six ta- bles, 22 chairs and two umbrellas would not be a significant change and would add to the cafe and the club's character. "We live in Miami; out- door spaces are something that we should have," resi- dent Bob Liu said. Ultimately, the Liberty Entertainment Group will be allowed to keep some existing benches that are outside the club but noth- ing else for the time being. "I would love to see the outdoor dining. However, I just don't think it's com- patible at this time with the congestion we get in that area/, Vice Mayor Frank Quesada said. The city commission previously denied a similar 2009 request from Liberty that called for eight tables and 32 chairs for the out- door area. OTHER BUSINESS • Solid waste dispute: The commission granted the city attorney permis- sion to seek a dispute reso- lution and settlement with Miami-Dade County over placement of a solid-waste special assessment on the tax rolls. The assessment was approved by the commis- sion in June in an effort to collect delinquent solid- waste fees that exceeded $850. City Attorney Craig Leen said the county tax collec- tor and property apprais- er's offices have been un- willing to place the assess- ment on this year's tax rolls. The resolution argues that based on Florida statu- te the two offices are min- isterial and cannot prevent the action. "The issue for us is that although they are calling these delinquent fees, this is an imposed special as- sessment this year for work that has done by the city over the past seven, eight, NOTICE OF NON-DISCRIMINATORY POLICY AS TO STUDENTS "Westwood Christian School, a ministry of First Baptist Church of Westwood Lake, Inc., admits students of any race, color, national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national and ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship and loan programs, and athletic and other school-administered programs." I SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 27 2015 MIAMIHERAto.(OM nine years that has never been paid for," Leen said_ Commissioner Patricia Keon said the county might be hesitant because placing the assessment on the rolls couJd make Miami-Dade officials seem like debt collectors, but she ulti- mately supported the city attorney moving forward. "I think they feel maybe they're being placed in the position where they are acting as a collection agen- cy for delinquent fees, which is not something that they have traditionally done," Keon said. • City guardhouses: In an effort to increase safety, the commission approved an item that would allow guardhouse operators to ask specific questions of drivers entering certain communities. The ordinance is in- tended primarily to get drivers to roll down their window and to state their reason for visiting the neighborhood and their destination. The commis- sion plans to fine-tune the language of the law after receiving input from Police Chief Ed Hudak. The new rules would be in effect from 11 p_m. to 6 a.m. • Citywide transporta- tion plan: Commissioners approved an item allowing staff to negotiate hiring Atkins North America to prepare the city's compre- hensive transportation plan. The plan is intended to identify multimodal forms of transportation, identify bike and pedestrian paths and recommend other transit improvements. THE NEXT MEETING • When: 9 a.m. Oct.
