additional spaces required.
The proposed restaurant will not adversely affect the health or safety of persons residing or working in the
vicinity; and the proposed use will not be detrimental to the public welfare or property or improvements in the
neighborhood. The Planning Board at its January 16, 2007 meeting adopted a motion by a vote of 6 ayes 0 nays

other applicable Code provisions, the special use approval may be modified or revoked by the City Commission

Mr. Sanford Youkilis, AICP
Planning Consultant/Acting Director
City of South Miami
6130 Sunset Drive
South Miami, FL 33143 -5093
Dear Mr. Youkilis,
Along with our application for a special use permit, please accept this as our letter of intent
regarding the building and operation of a children's entertainment center in the Shops at Sunset
in South Miami.
Ownership information
Giggle City Play Cafd is a "dba" of Karpa Holdings, LLC. The lease is executed between Karpa
Holdings, LLC (referencing the project's working name of Funny Yummy) and Shops at Sunset,
LLC (Simon Properties). Lease information included in the application packet. The Managing
Partner of Karpa Holdings is Jose Luis Bueno of Key Biscayne, Florida. The Giggle City Play
Cafd project is being managed by Amy Madson, General Manager, who will be involved in all
aspects of development and operations.
Project Overview
Giggle City has been conceived to access the family -based upscale population of South Miami,
Florida and the surrounding towns. Our Demographic Analysis has shown that there is a very
large residential population base of close to 1,200,000 within the 10 mile radius study area.
Giggle City will be located in The Shops at Sunset Place, which is a multi -level town/park -like
destination where shoppers find specialty retail as well as familiar favorites for fashion, beauty,
home and dining. Its distinctive tenant roster features boutiques and restaurants anchored by
Barnes & Nobles, Dan Marino's Fine Food & ',spirits and AMC theatres.
Maximizing location to help build traffic sources and encouraging word of mouth advertising
and targeted effective communication will be a core driver in ensuring future growth and
success. Giggle City's key advantage will be their superior location- destination, extraordinary
customer service and never - ending quest for fun in a totally unique and parent- friendly
environment.
Giggle City will provide children and their parents a place where fun is found in every corner.
Giggle City will create an environment that is healthy, safe, loving and creative - insuring their
celebrated events are extra special for everyone. The main attraction at Giggle City will be a
sincere interest in our communities' children: their encouragement, learning, safety and, mostly,
FUN! But moreover, Giggle City will be dedicated to the parent's comfort too, by having a large
lounge seating area in the center of the facility -- two steps above ground level. Here, parents can
be seated in a relaxed environment, enjoying a beverage or sandwich, while having 360' views
of their kids at all times, who are enjoying healthy, creative fun.
Children and parents who visit Giggle City will know instantly as they walk in the door that they
have entered a totally unique and creative environment unlike any other Family Entertainment
Center they've ever seen. In state -of -the -art themed amusement zones there will be different
play, learning and art activities at each vignette such as: the Computer Corner, Lego
Building Zone, Arts & Crafts, Cars & Trains, The Teddy Bear Filling Station and Beauty
Boutique.
This fun- loving experience will be found in both the d6cor and the people as they will work hand
in hand to provide extraordinary customer service. The Giggle City website will highlight both
the facilities' unique and creative indoor play activities and assist parents in scheduling party
reservations.
Another attraction will be a large Birthday Party Area, consisting of a number of specially -
themed Party Rooms, as well as a major Soft Structure Play Unit, capable of handling up to 80
children and a spacious Toddler Area. With the four Themed Party Activity Rooms, there will be
an overall party capacity of 100 children. It is estimated that the Birthday Party business
generated will represent close to 55% of total annual sales.
Retail and Souvenir Gift Sales will also be a significant Profit Center, which will allow the
business to grow into other profit centers, possibly consisting of signature and/or `branded' item
sales and various other seasonal gift items and themed `take home' souvenirs. There will be Food
Service dining area, with a capacity of 50 seats, which will offer parent- friendly fare in a themed,
tastefully decorated environment. Strong effort will be placed to provide excellent service, high -
quality and fresh food products where possible and varied and seasonally- changing menu
offerings.
The building's interior will be uniquely themed and beautifully decorated, with different activity
concepts, like Art and Craft's niches; a Builder's Corner, where the children role -play with con-
struction games, toys and play elements; a Computer Corner, where both fun and learning will
be encouraged.
A 3 and 10 mile radius Demographic Analysis was done to examine the population base and
viability for the Family Fun Center activities at the Giggle City proposed site location. A
stringent evaluation of competitive -type businesses within the radius study areas was performed
to examine the feasibility of success of this type of operation. Specific to the growing visitation
to the region, the increased number of major 'chain' hotels and motels within the Radius Study
Area indicate a viable market segment available for this type of attraction. It is anticipated that
an ongoing 'rack card' advertising campaign will be able to access this market.
We have put together a strong management and marketing plan which will allow Giggle City to
grow with the additional business potential expected. Jose L. Bueno, along with his General
Manager, Amy Madson, will personally oversee the operation, providing an `ownership'
presence on site during the construction and initial start-up periods, as well as day -to -day
ongoing management.
A significant Advertising and Marketing Budget will be put in place to provide ongoing annual
growth. In a residential -based market, advertising must be constant and fluid. A sizable
advertising budget, 1 % larger than most FEC's, will allow management to saturate all the local
markets and take advantage of large volume media purchasing.
Finally with Birthday Parties, Child/Parent Interaction and Soft Structured Play as the ANCHOR
ATTRACTIONS, there will be a true family synergy! Family Entertainment and Fun Centers
have had a long tradition of providing clean, family- friendly leisure fun, education and
entertainment activities to communities for more than 3 decades.
The mission is that Giggle City Play Cafe be part of this long & profitable tradition.

Cooking Equipment
We will have a gas convection oven to offer fresh baked breads and desserts along with a small
cooking line and a pizza preparation area including a conveyor oven. We added this area to the
design to ensure we offer fresh, high quality ingredients to our guests. The cooking area will
have two floor standing gas fryers to accommodate making French fries and other hand eaten
items like mozzarella sticks and chicken fingers — all kid favorites. All equipment will be brand
new and we will comply with all fire suppression requirements as well including installing hoods
and Ansil systems as required.
Clean- up/Trash
We will coordinate our own in -house cleaning program using MSDS approved products to
ensure we maintain a clean food preparation and storage environment. All plates will be
scraped to remove food debris before entering the dishwasher minimizing the food waste /grease
in the drains /traps. According the mall operations manager, grease traps are already in place for
our location and they are maintained by the mall.
Bagged trash collection will be maintained in a back of house area in a "dumpster" cart
throughout the day and will be removed from the venue as needed throughout the day, but at the
minimum — once per day at closing time. The trash area will be in the back part of the venue
with easy access to the service hallway and service elevator. The dumpster cart will be rolled to
the approved Mall trash area and emptied based on the route provided by Simon Malls.
Deliveries
Nearly all deliveries (food, equipment & supplies) will enter the facility through the service
elevator and service hallway behind our venue. They will enter the facility through the "back
door" directly into the back of house areas. Any extra large deliveries may have to be brought in
through the front doors after using the mall freight elevator behind GameWorks. This would be
done during mall approved hours or with the mall's special permission. There is a loading dock
as needed, but per the Mall Operations Manager, there is a "cut -out" behind our venue on Red
Road that can be used for delivery trucks as well as long as it is a quick stop. Deliveries such as
UPS /Fed -Ex will come through the front mall doors into the lobby area.
If you have any other questions at this time, please feel free to contact me at 305- 282 -6905 or via
email at amadsongmgcomcast.net. We appreciate your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Amy Madson

Ms. Young read the resolution into the record. Mr. Youkilis stated that pursuant to Section 20-
3.4(B)(4)(b) of the Land Development Code (LDC) the applicant is requesting a Special Use
Approval to operate a general restaurant to be called "Giggle City Play Cafe" at the Shops at
Sunset Place which is located in the "SR(F[D) ", Specialty Retail Hometown Overlay Zoning
District. He explained that the proposed area of the restaurant will be part of a children's
entertainment center and will be located on the third floor. It will occupy 8100 square feet next to
the Mall's executive offices. The space has never been occupied.
Mr. Youkilis explained that the square footage addition of the proposed new restaurant will not
result in the Shops at Sunset Place exceeding the 1997 allocated total square footage for
restaurants. The required parking spaces for all restaurants were included in the initial approval of
the Shops. Based upon this analysis there are no additional spaces required.
The proposed restaurant will not adversely affect the health or safety of persons residing or
working in the vicinity; and the proposed use will not be detrimental to the public welfare or
property or improvements in the neighborhood. The staff recommended that the subject
application be approved with the following conditions: (1) all signage for the new establishment is
subject to approval by the City's ERPB; (2) If the subject general restaurant is, in the future,
determined by the Director of Planning to be adversely affecting the health or safety of persons
residing or working in the vicinity of the proposed use, to be detrimental to the public welfare or
property or improvements in the neighborhood, or to be not in compliance with other applicable
Code provisions, the special use approval may be modified or revoked by the City Commission
upon notification and public hearing.
