From: Sanford A. Youkilis, Acting Planning Directo
Date. February 3, 2009
ITEM NO.
Subject: Annual Report on Project Sunset Project
Project Summary
In March, 2005 the City Commission approved a mixed use project entitled "Project Sunset" located
at 5750 Sunset Drive. The project is a unified development covering 2 1/2 blocks (4.5 acres) in the
Hometown District. It includes 108 residential units and 87,212 square feet of commercial space. The
approval included the approval ( by resolution) of a two special exceptions to allow lot coverage and
building square footage to exceed the maximums permitted and to, allow four drive - though teller lanes
where only two are permitted. A second item approved was an ordinance to accept a site plan for the
project and a Development Agreement pursuant to Florida Statutes 163.3220- 163.3243.
is Project Status
The project is not under construction as the developer is in the process of requesting changes to the
site plan, the special exceptions granted and the Development Agreement itself. The changes have
been recommended for approved by the Planning Board and are scheduled for consideration by the
City Commission in February. The name of the project has been changed to "First on Sunset ".
Effective Date
The Development Agreement, although adopted by the City in March 2005 was not signed (executed)
by both parties until December 26, 2007.. The recordation was done on February 7, 2008 which is.
legally considered the effective date of the Development Agreement (Section 3, Development
Agreement). The developer had 20 days from the signing date to record the agreement in the County's
Public Records (Section 35).
Annual Report
The Agreement includes a requiring the submission by the developer of an annual report on the
anniversary of the effective date of the Development Agreement (Section 27). It is essentially a
status report showing that obligations have been met and that there has been compliance with the
provisions of the Agreement. The annual report must be reviewed by the City Commission at a public
meeting. The City Commission may accept the report or if there is a finding by the Commission that
there has been a failure to comply with the terms of the Development Agreement, the Agreement may
be revoked or modified by the City.
• The project developer, South Miami Corporation, has submitted the required annual report in the
form of a letter from the developer's attorney Jerry Proctor, Esq. dated January 8, 2009. It is attached
2
• to this cover memo. A summary of progress made on the major obligations of the developer is
contained in the cover letter. The executed Development Agreement is attached as part of the report.
Administration Observations
(1) There is a 33 month period between approval of the Development Agreement by the City Commission
in March, 2005 and the official signing of the document by both parties in December, 2007. It is
important to note that shortly after the project was approved by the City Commission in 2005 the
developer began considering major changes in the scope of the project, phasing of the project, and the
architectural design of the project. A new architectural firm was eventually hired.
(2) The Administration has been able to determine that the Planning Director in 2005 -2006 insisted upon
the signing of the Agreement by the developer. However, the developer based upon their concerns about
re- designing the project did not sign the Agreement. In early December 2007 the City's Planning Director
at that time discovered that the document had not been signed (executed) and insisted that the Agreement
be executed immediately. This was done by the City and the developer on December 26, 2007. There are
no State laws or sections in the Development Agreement itself which regulate when an agreement must be
executed or signed.
(3) It must be pointed out that the Developer did not comply with Section 35 of the Development
Agreement which requires the developer to record the executed agreement within 20. days after the
agreement is signed by both parties (December 26, 2007). A total of 43 days elapsed before the developer
• recorded the document on February 7, 2008.

■ Phase I shall consist of Block "A" described in Exhibit "C".
■ Phase II shall consist of Block "B" described in Exhibit "C ".
■ Phase III shall consist of Block "C" described in Exhibit "C"
■ The Company may elect to implement the development plan in one or more

■ The. Company may .elect to utilize Block "C" as a temporary bank facility with

upon the issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy for the Bank facility on Block
and, to substitute a new Exhibit "B ". The revised plan is submitted as part of
this application.
FROM: Development Conditions: The following conditions shall apply to the
development of the project:
• (a) All development shall be in accordance with the site plan submitted with
the special exception and special use applications, said site plan
incorporated in Exhibit "C ".
ri
U
The attached site plans serve to amend the plan of record to the Property
and would operate as. the approved plans of record in this paragraph as well.
The revised site plan reduces the overall impact of the development on the
surrounding_ area, while retaining_ the quality of designed envisioned_ in the Hometown
Plan. Particularly, the plan eliminates any restaurant uses on the Property. Since the
2005 hearing, a number of successful restaurants have opened in the vicinity of the
Property. The applicant's new development program continues to propose up to 108
residential units, but reduces the non - residential a/c space from approximately 87,000
square feet to just over 65,000 square feet with concomitant reductions in parking
demand and traffic impact on the community.
The new development plan offers complimentary uses such as residential and
office- develeprne- nt -t-hat- will -ope-r ate - harm- o- niousl"wit-h--the- restaurants= and- other -.uses
opened in the vicinity since 2005, and will not overburden roadways or other city
services, due to different peak hours of operation, and also illustrates a compatible
scale and orientation. The reduced impact of the development envisioned in this
application is underscored by the findings of the new traffic study, attached herewith, as
prepared by Richard Garcia and Associates.

The proposed development follows the spirit and letter of the City's Hometown
District regulations and Comprehensive Plan requirements by:
(1) Enhancing the City's community identity and "sense of place ";
(2) Creating a developed identity that will recognize the importance of
pedestrian comfort and the pedestrian environment;
(3) Providing a mixture of uses in a vertical design that will most efficiently
use parking resources and enhance the health of the "town center" concept in the
Hometown Plan;
(4) Providing a variety of design treatments, building shapes, and roof
treatments to break up the massing of the development; and
(5) Incorporating street trees and other plantings to create a pleasant
pedestrian style and env_ironment._
Areas on which the development plans meet or exceed Hometown District
