Youkilis, Acting Planning Director, Date: May 14, 2008 Re: Public and Institutional (PI) Land Use Category Study Status The City Commission at its April 1, 2008 meeting adopted Resolution No. 51 -08 -12648 directing the Planning Department and the Local Planning Agency (Board) to adjust the "PI" Public and Institutional Future Land Use Map Category to reduce the maximum height limit from four stories to two stories (or in the alternative, create a Religious Institution land use category). In anticipation of being able to process this amendment, the Planning Department staff with assistance from the City's Comprehensive Plan consultants has initiated a study of the properties which would be affected by the changes. A total of ten properties currently with the "PI" Future Land Use Map Category could be impacted. These include hospitals, churches, private institutions, government buildings, and community centers. Data being collected for each property includes: • Height of existing buildings • Building use, square footage • Property ownership • Notification —mail lists • Impact of the amendment on streets, potable water, sewers, and solid waste facilities serving each property • Impact of amendment on development potential (increase or decrease) on each property It is important to note that schools are placed in a different future land use category entitled "Educational(Four Story) ",which allows buildings up to 4 stories in height. The underlining zoning district for schools limits the maximum height of buildings to two stories. There are some schools within the City which are three stories in height. This is a result of State law which exempts schools from local zoning control. There are also government buildings in the "PI" Future Land Use category which exceed the maximum height limitation of four stories. An example is the Senior Citizens Center which is six stories. The building was built in 1979 prior to the adoption of the Comprehensive Plan in 1989 which created the four story limitation. Attachment: Resol.

A Continuing Process Town Planning is a continuing process. All stakeholders are invited to add their comments to the process in the months and years to come. The City of South Miami has taken the lead in initiating this charrette and the process that continues from it. Comments should be directed to the City's Planning Department. The City, in turn, is in touch with its various counterparts in Miami -Dade County and with area businesses and residents in a number of ways. It will endeavor to pass all comments on to the affected decision makers. Together, we continue to develop a better Community we can all share. A Sense of Place Mixed use, pedestrian friendly.

Residential and commercial, City and County interests were represented. The Steering Committee oversaw the planning of the charrette events, careful to ensure all area interests were adequately represented. This was vital to the integrity of the process. A Patchwork Quilt The Study area is a mix of property - about two thirds Miami -Dade County and one third City of South Miami.

It was important to demonstrate that for this City Commission and this City Management, that was clearly not the case. By truly involving a complete cross section of County and City stakeholders - by walking the walk as well as talking the talk - the City was able to allay the fears of most all the skeptics and move on with the important work of town planning.

Participants were broken into four quadrant groups, based on where their interests lay. So folks from the southeast quadrant of the square mile, for instance, sat and worked together, giving a very local quality to the deliberation. Tools of the Trade Participants worked in groups, drawing their ideas directly onto tracing paper over aerial maps and enlarged photos of the area, i But first, each group considered the whole study area for about 45 minutes. Ideas were generated for the YMCA property, Bird Road and other specifics, from participants whose interests lay right at the doorstep, as well as from those a little further away, but still in the neighborhood. Next, groups put away their larger maps and focused in on their quadrant areas. Along with the public, each table had facilitators from the ranks of the volunteer professionals. Facilitators assisted the groups to draw their ideas on tracing paper placed over blown up aerial maps and scores of enlarged photos from the area. They were encouraged to draw what they imagined and not worry about how it might get done for now.

The beginnings of ideas, hatched looking down on aerials, took real shape when drawn onto the photos and given human scale. Facilitators with seasoned drawing skills worked with the public, like police sketch artists, to turn ideas into color renderings of a community being imagined. The City laid on sandwiches, buffalo wings, vegetables and soft drinks for lunch. Folks pulled themselves away in shifts for a bite and a drink, usually carried back to their tables so they could carry on in the process. Meanwhile, chairs were assembled at the front of the room and groups were given multiple time checks to finish up their work. They had large '/2° foam boards on which to pin their work and were asked to elect a spokesperson from each group. Group Presentations After lunch, everyone assembled in the front of the cafeteria. The spokespersons from each group took it in turn to present their group's ideas. A little friendly competition rose to see who had come up with the most worthwhile ideas. Then something interesting occurred. As each group presented, remarkable similarities emerged from separate considerations of the same issues. This was consensus building right in front of your face, and proved a powerful force. The coordinator asked a dozen different folks to take careful notes during the presentations, to capture all the ideas in that moment, when they were fresh, ripe and clear. Later, those notes would be consolidated as a thorough inventory and used in the next step. After the presentations, participants were asked to stay involved and reassemble next Friday, back at Hope Lutheran Church, when results would be presented for the first time. They did stay involved, developing into somewhat of a family, many attending the Tuesday City Commission meeting, where the Commission was given a progress report, then re- convening on Friday at Hope Lutheran. Group Presentations Lively discussions and much agreement emerged as groups presented their ideas to the everyone.

(Those big foam board served the charrette very well) During the next few days, volunteer professionals used the room as command central - to meet, review the sketches and notes from the Saturday Workshop, and divide the tasks required to distill the information into a cohesive product. They produced detailed drawings and consolidated lists of points. This was collected into a PowerPoint presentation which was presented and discussed the following Friday at Hope Lutheran. And it was the basis for this report.
