BACKGROUND The Land Development Code (LDC) provides special regulations to guide construction of parking garages in the Residential Office (RO) Zoning District if the parking provided is for a building being built in a Medium Density Office District (MO) zoning district. In a recent communication to the Planning Department, Commissioner Beckman requested that this section pertaining to parking garages in the RO zone district (Section 20 -3.4(B (� 15) be removed from the Land Development Code. The Commissioner stated in a memo that: "This section needs to be deleted for the following reasons: 1) there are no RO properties that abut MO properties in the City; 2) even if the above condition were to occur now or in the future, the parking structures in RO are inappropriate. " LEGISLATIVE HISTORY The Land Development Code Section on parking structures in RO zoning districts appears in the 1985 Code. It was written to insure that a parking garage could be built as a "permitted use" in a RO zone provided that it serves a main building located in a CO zone district (now called MO, Medium Density Office District). In 1991 this section of the Code was amended by Ordinance No. 25 -91 -1489) to change the category of this use from permitted to "special use" (requires public hearings) in the RO zoning district. The amendment at that time also inserted an additional restriction stating that a parking structure in an RO zone is not allowed if it abuts residential property. Staff has reviewed the City's Official Zoning map and has determined that there are no existing RO districts which abut an MO zoning district. The Commissioner point that a separate parking structure in the RO district would not be compatible is correct since most RO districts abut low density residential zones. The reason behind the inclusion of this section in the Land Development Code could not be determined from existing records. In that there are no conditions under which this regulation would apply, it is agreed that this section should be removed. The proposed amendment would be to delete Section 20- 3.4(B)(15) in its entirety from the LDC. A secondary amendment within the same chapter would be to amend Section 20 -3.3 (D) "Permitted Use Schedule" to delete automobile parking structure as a special use in the RO zone. 2 PLANNING BOARD ACTION The Planning Board at its September 15, 2008 meeting conducted a public hearing on the proposed amendments and adopted a motion, by a vote of 5 ayes 0 nays recommending approval of the proposed amendment. PARKING BOARD COMMENTS The Parking Board at its September 19, 2008 meeting reviewed the proposed amendment and approved a motion by a vote of 4 ayes 0 nays recommending adoption of the ordinance. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the proposed amendment as shown in attached draft ordinance be approved on second reading.

Planning Board Applications /Public Hearing PB -08 -023 Applicant: City of South Miami AN ORDINANCE OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SOUTH MIAMI, FLORIDA, RELATING TO A REQUEST TO AMEND THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE BY REMOVING SECTION 20- 3.4(B)(15) ENTITLED "PARKING STRUCTURE IN RO DISTRICTS "; AND AMENDING SECTION 20 -3.3 (D) ENTITLED "PERMITTED USE SCHEDLUE" BY REMOVING AUTOMOBILE PARKING STRUCTURE AS A SPECIAL USE IN THE RO, RESIDENTIAL OFFICE ZONING DISTRICT; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. Mr. Morton read the item into the record. Action: Mr. Youkilis advised that the text amendment was a request from Commissioner Beckman to consider removing Section 20- 3.4(B)(15) from the Land Development Code. This section was written to insure that a parking garage could be built as a "permitted use" in a RO district provided that it serves a main building located in a CO zone district (now called MO, Medium Density Office District). In 1991 this section of the Code was amended by Ordinance No. 25 -91 -1489) to change the category of this use from permitted to "special use' (requires public hearings) in the RO zoning district. The amendment at that time also inserted an additional restriction stating that a parking structure in an RO zone is not allowed if it abuts residential property. Staff has reviewed the City's Official Zoning map and found that there are no existing RO districts abutting an MO district. Commissioner Beckman makes a good point that a separate parking Planning Board Meeting September 15, 2008 Page 2 of 7 structure in the RO district would not be compatible since most RO districts abut low density residential zones. In that there are no conditions under which this regulation would apply, it is agreed that this section should be removed. Staff recommended approval to delete Section 20- 3.4(B)(15) and amend Section 20- 3.3(D) "Permitted Use Schedule" to delete automobile parking structure as a special use in the RO district. Chairman Morton opened the Public Hearing. Name Address Position Claudia Harry 5752 SW 77 Terrace Oppose Ms. Harry stated that she finds no reason for removing the section from the LDC. By removing it the City will only create more problems. She foresees that if the ordinance is removed Dr. Quintero will remove the rear fence from the adjacent property and replace it with a garage door. She also foresees that the surrounding properties will do the same and turn a house into a garage. Ms. Harry expressed doubts that the Commissioners can convince her that this will not happen, therefore she stated to be against the text amendment. Chairman Morton closed the Public Hearing. Mr. Morton requested clarification as to whether or not the proposed amendment will remove the special use as a permitted use in its entirety. Mr. _Youkils responded in the affirmative- stating that the special use will also be removed from the permitted use schedule. This is only applicable for an RO property if it abuts an MO. Motion: Ms. Yates moved to approve the text amendment as recommended by staff. Mr. Farfan seconded.

The board discusses two technical amendments to the land development codes related to parking that have been initiated by a commissioner. a. The first amendment relates to a section of the code which allows a parking garage built in RO (Residential Office) zones as long as they are next to MO (Medium Office) zones. The planning board is recommending that this section be removed because there are no RO zones that are next to MO zones. Motion is passed and all are in favor to remove the section. b. The second amendment relates to valet parking. The text says "up to 50% of the parking requirement... may be satisfied through the provision of valet parking." Commissioner Beckman is asking that the section be removed. Instead, valet parking would be- allowed- -accor -ding to- other -- - - - provisions, but that it can not be counted as a reduction to the required parking. Motion is passed and all are in favor of removing the section. II. The board discusses appointing one of its members to the land development code task force. The board appoints Al Elias and Michael Miller to equally represent the parking board at the land development task force meeting provided that they share the information between them at each meeting. III. The board discusses currently submitted petitions for residential decal parking, including one for 5864 SW 74th Terrace. They decide that the board members will review the applications already in the system and submit recommendations. However, before any future applications are reviewed and decided upon, the board decides to evaluate the current criteria for residential decal parking and agree upon those conditions. IV. Al Elias recommends that the board aim to resolve the residential decal parking issue as quickly as possible so that they may turn their attention to other parking issues in South Miami. V. Michael Miller suggests that maps of available parking throughout the city be provided to the residents and visitors to the city through publishing in the local newspapers and leaflets available at parking garages and the Sunset Place mall. VI. New centralized parking meters were discussed and it was said that it might be a year before a decision is made and the meters become available. Motion is passed to recommend that the commission move forward on a decision regarding these meters. VII. Meeting is adjourned.
