Emissions tests
can end, EPA says.
Decision*
affects Dade, Broward,-,
Federal regulators have giv-
en Florida tentative approval
for the elimination of auto
emissions tests in Miami -Dade,
Broward and other counties
along the state's Atlantic Coast,
A state environmental official
said Wednesday.
The Environmental Protec-
tion Agency's approval of the
plan puts the future of the
emissions tests into the hands
of this year's Florida Legisla-
ture, said' Dotty Diltz, chief of
air monitoring for the state's
Departmenfof Environmental
Protection. .
With approval of the EPA,
the state is free to stop testing
cars in Miami -Dade, Broward,
Palm Beach and Duval coun-
ties, .where air quality now
meets federal standards, Diltz
said. (Monroe County does not
conduct auto emission tests.)
The EPA decision won't be fi-
nal until later this spring af-
ter the decision is published in
the Federal Registef, and the
public is given 30 days to com-
ment on it. The Federal Regis;,
ter notice is expected to be,
published in a week or two. ,
The EPA's tentative decision
does not include the Tampa
Bay area -- Pinellas and Hills.\
borough counties -- where air,
quality is still not up to- snuff.
The state DEP plans to contiRt
ue requiring emissions tests
there. ?.
State Sen. Ron Klein, D -Boca
Raton; Rep. Edward Healey, D=
Palm Springs, and Rep. Jim
Fuller, R- Jacksonville, are
sponsoring bills to eliminate
the tests. If the legislation paste
es, the tests wculd end June .X
Their legislation is apposed
by the American Lung Associa-
tion of Florida and the two
companies that have state con-
tracts to run the tests, Gordon:
Darby and Envirotest Technol-
ogies. Emissions tests are a $50-
million -a -year operation state-
wide.

BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS
On November 6 -7, 1999, Chamber South held the 28th Annual South Miami Art Festival. Over
50,000 people visited the Hometown to enjoy art, food and small town charm.
Chamber South submitted a Cultural and Community Grants Program Application to the City of
South Miami in order to receive funding for marketing of the event. In past years, Chamber
South had requested in -kind services, such as police and waste disposal, for the event. This year,
however, the applicant felt that the marketing costs were more critical and, therefore, requested a
grant of $8,174.09 to be applied towards its annual marketing costs of $20,000.
On April 12, 2000, the Grants Advisory Board reviewed the application and voted 5 -0 to
recommend an award of $8,174.09.
The grant would be charged to Account #01- 2100 -519 -9910, entitled "Contribution— Special
Events ". The available account balance is $35,490.68; the resulting balance would be
$27,316.59.

History of Chamber South
Chamber South is the chamber of commerce for South Miami, Kendall and greater South Dade. Ten years ago, the
South Miami/Kendall Chamber and the South Dade Chamber merged to form the Greater South Dade /South Miami/
Kendall Chamber of Commerce. The name Chamber South followed soon thereafter for ease of use.
Our organization's purpose is to help maintain the quality of life in this area by assisting the area's businesses. It is our
belief that jobs are essential to prevent a decay in neighborhoods and families.
By working directly with businesses, such as our small business counseling service, and through work with schools, law
enforcement agencies, environmental concerns and other organizations, Chamber South ensures that a business-
friendly environment is maintained, allowing our residents a standard of living that would be otherwise lost.
These efforts are made possible through the membership dollars of local businesses who support us as well as
fundraisers such as the South Miami Art Festival. On occasion, grants are secured to provide funding for specific
projects, but overall, little government support is received for our operations.

KidVentures Background
KidVentures Goals and Mission
KIDVENTURES, INC. helps students run a real -life business, and gives them exposure to a wide range of
business skills, including product costing, advertising and marketing, business etiquette, and accurate
record keeping. Additionally, through involvement in their business endeavor, students are motivated to
improve in all primary achievement areas, such as reading, writing and math. Most importantly, students
gain self- esteem, while at the same time working on projects that allow their natural creativity to unfold.
"The mission of KidVentures, Inc. is to involve children in the running of an actual business. By
marketing products which they have created, they learn basic and life skills, and validate their self-
worth.
Art by Kids: School- Based Enterprise Pilot Proiect
KIDVENTURES initiated a pilot school -based enterprise project in September of 1999, with 4th and 5th
graders at Ludlam Elementary School in South Miami, Florida. These children were primarily of low- income
African American backgrounds, although some children from varying Hispanic backgrounds were also
represented. - Currently, 73% of children enrolled in the program are South Miami residents. Under the
guidance of Alice Horn, project director, students have designed, produced and sold a line of unique holiday
and special- occasion greeting cards. They named their business ART BY KIDS, and designed a logo. The
cards were printed in small quantities and marketed, both at Ludlam and in the local community.
Now in its second year, ART BY KIDS has been extraordinarily successful Students have sold well over
3000 cards. In addition to selling cards at their school, students have benefited from a multitude of learning
experiences in the extended community. Students involved in the project have already:
• Sold cards to a local law firm
• Sold cards to Florida International University's College of Education
Sold cards to Florida International University's Institute for Workforce Competitiveness
• Received an order from the Florida State House of Representatives
• Appeared at Rotary and Kiwanis Club meetings where they gave speeches and conducted a sales
event
• Participated in the South Miami Art Expo, where they sold their products
• Conducted sales events at Shops at Sunset Place and in the lobby of the 1 St National Bank of South
Miami
•
Won Best of Show for their age group for the Miami -Dade Youth Fair
KIDVENTURES, INC. was incorporated in April; 1999, in order to lend continued support and guidance to
the project. Non -profit status from the IRS was received February 4, 2000.
* Based on the success of this program, the SOUTH MIAMI ANNENBERG PARTNERSHIP; consisting of
Ludlam Elementary School, South Miami Elementary School, South Miami Middle School, and South Miami
High School; has committed to including KidVentures as part of an Annenberg Implementation Grant (see
attached letter of commitment.) This will allow KidVentures to expand its reach into additional classrooms
and schools.
In the attachments you will find articles and letters of recommendation pertaining to KidVentures.

Proposed Proiect
At the request of South Miami Vice -Mayor Mary Scott Russell, KidVentures, Inc. has designed a logo based
around the theme 'Touch the World with Kindness," to encourage doing good deeds in the City of South
Miami. This logo was recently presented to Vice Mayor Russell, Mayor Robaina, and all members of City
Council at the City Council meeting on January 18, 2000. Now we would Tike to take this logo and have it
printed on greeting cards. The "Touch the World With Kindness" logo will serve as a focal point for a
collection of cards themed around . children and reflecting their view of life in South Miami and South Florida.
Specifically, the collection will include several cards depicting "Our Holidays in the Tropics," allowing
children to record their impressions of the holiday season in South Miami and South Florida.
These cards will be marketed in collaboration with the South Miami Annenberg Partnership through a
display at the Shops at Sunset Place. The cards will also be marketed through Chamber South, and offered
to members to send as corporate holiday cards, "thank you for your business cards," etc. Businesses will
be offered the option to customize the cards with their own message. Additionally, a number of local
retailers have already offered to feature the cards in their stores:
Proceeds of the project, anticipated to be approximately $5000, will benefit youth in South Miami by
facilitating the expansion of the KidVentures program to additional South Miami classrooms, and will be
reinvested to cover the start -up cost of cards, envelopes, etc., for future years. The project will begin
immediately upon funding from the City of South Miami, and will continue until all merchandise has been
sold or otherwise disposed of.
The project will be overseen by KidVentures president Alice Horn, with input and participation from the
KidVentures Board of Directors. In addition student volunteers will be recruited from colleges and
universities for marketing and classroom assistance;

Addendum Applies.
Na
Based on information you supplied, and assuming your operations will be as
stated in your application for recognition of exemption, we have determined you
are exempt from federal income tax under section 501(a) of the laternal Revenue
Cade as an organization described in section 501(c)(3).
Because you are a newly created organization, we are not now making a
final determination of your foundation status under section 509(a) of the Cade.
However, we have determined that you can reasonably expect to be a publicly
supported organization described in section 509(a)(2).
Accordingly, during an advance ruling period you will be treated as a
publicly supported organization, and not as a private foundation. This advance
ruling period begins and ends on the dates shown above.
Within 90 days after the end of your advance ruling period, you must
send us the information needed to determine whether you have met the require-
ments of the applicable support test during the advance ruling period. If you
establish that you have been a publicly supported organization, we will classi-
fy you as a section 509(a)(1) or 509(a)(2) organization as long as you continue
to meet the requirements of the applicable support test. If you do not meet
the public support requirements during the advance ruling period, we will
classify you as a private foundation for future periods. Also, if we classify,
you as a private foundation, we will treat you as a private foundation from
your beginning date for purposes of section 507(d) and 49•40.
Grantors and contributors may rely on our determination that you are not a
private foundation until 90 days after the end of your advance rulinq period.
If you send us the required information within the 90 days, grantors and
contributors may continue to rely on the advance determination until we make
a final determination of your foundation status.
If we publish a notice in the Internal Revenue Bulletin stating that we
Letter 1045 (DO /CG)
_2_
KIDVENTURES INC
will no longer treat you as a publicly supported organization, grantors and
contributors may not rely on this determination after the date we publish the
notice. In addition, if you rase your status as a publicly supported organi-
zation, and a grantor or contributor was responsible -for, or was aware of, the
actor failure to act, that resulted in your loss of such status, that person
may not rely on this determination from the date of the act or failure to act.
Also, if a grantor or contributor learned that we had given notice that you
would be removed from classification as a publicly supported organization, then
that persona may not rely on this determination as of the date he or she
acquired such knowledge.
If you change your sources of support, your purposes, character, or method
of operation, please let us know so we can consider the effect of the change on
your exempt status and foundation status. If you amend your organizational
document or bylaws, please send us a copy of the amended document or bylaws.
Also, let us know all changes in your name or address.
As of January 1, 1984, you are liable for social security taxes under
time Federal Insurance Contributions Act on amounts of $100 or more you pay to
each of your employees during a calendar year. You are not liable for the tax
imposed under the Federal Unemployment Tax Act (FUTA )W
Organizations that are not private foundations are not subject to the pri-
vate foundation excise taxes under Chapter, 42 of the Internal. Revenue Code.
However, you are not automatically exempt from other federal excise taxes. If
you have any questions about excise, employment, or other federal taxes, please
let us know.
Donors may deduct contributions to you as provided in section 170 of the
Internal Revenue Code. Bequests, legacies, devises, transfers, or gifts to you
or for your use are deductible for Federal estate and gift tax purposes if they
meet the applicable provisions of sections 2055, 2106, and 2522 of the Coos.
Donors may deduct contributions to you only to the extent that their
contributions are gifts, with no considerations received. Wicket purchases and
similar payments in conjunction with f€andralsing events may not necessarily
qualify as deductible contributions, depending on the circumstances. : Revenue
Ruling 67 -246, published in Cumulative Bulletin 1967-2, on page 104, gives
guidelines regarding when taxpayers may deduct payments for admission to, or
other participation in,, fundraising activities for charity. ,
You are not required to Mile Farm 990, Return of Organization Exempt From
Income Tax,.if your gross receipts each year are normally $25,004 or less. If
you receive ,a Form 990 package in the mail, simply attach the label provided,
check the box in the heading to indicate that your annual gross receipts are
normally $25,000 or less, and sign the return. Because you will be treated as
a public charity for return filing purposes during your entire advance ruling
period, you should file Form 990 for each year in your advance ruling period
that you exceed the $25,000 filing threshold even if your sources of support
do not satisfy the public support test specified in the heading of this letter.
Letter 1€345 (DO/CG)
KIDVENTURES INC
If a return is required, it must be filed by the 15th day of the fifth
month after the end of your annual accounting period. n penalty of $20 a day
is charged when a return is filed late, unless there is reasonable cause for
the delay. However, the maximum penalty charged cannot exceed $10,000 or
5 percent of your gross receipts for the year', whichever is less. For
organizations with gross receipts excee=ding $1,000,000 in any year, the penalty
is $100 per day_ per return, unless there is reasonable cause for the delay.
The maximum penalty for an organization with gross receipts exceeding
$1,000,000 shall not exceed $50,000. This penalty may also be charged if a
return is not complete. So, please be sure your return is complete before you
file it.
You are not required to file federal income tax returns unless you are
subject to the tax on unrelated business income under section 521 of the Code.
If you are subject to this tax, you must file an income tax return on Form
990 -T, Exempt Organization Business Income Tax Re=turn. In this letter we are
not determining whether any of your present or proposed activities are unre-
lated trade or business as defined in section 513 of the Code.
The law requires you to make your annual return available for public
inspection without charge for three years after the due date of the return.
You are also required to make available for public inspection a copy of your
exemption application,; any supporting documents and this exemption letter to
any individual who requests such documents in person or in writing. You can
charge only a reasonable fee for reproduction and actual postage costs for the
copied materials. The lair does not require you to provide copies of public
inspection documents that are made widely available, such as by posting therm
on the Internet (World Wide Web). You may be liable for a penalty of $20 a day
for each day you do not make these documents available for public inspection
(up to a maximum of $10,000 in the case of an annual return).
You need an employer identification number even if you have no employees..
If an employer identification number was not entered on your application, we
will assign a number to you and advise you of it. Please use that number on
all returns you file and in all correspondence with the Internal Revenue
Service.
This determination is based on evidence that your -funds are dedicated to
the purposes fisted in section 501(c)(3) of the Code. To assure your continued
exemption, you should keep records to show that funds are spent only for those
purposes. If you distribute funds to other - organizations, your records should
show whether they area exempt under section 502(c)(3). In cases where the
recipient organization is not exempt under section 541(c)(3), you must have
evidence that the -funds will remain dedicated to the required purposes and that
the recipient will use the funds for those purposes.
If you distribute funds to individuals, you should keep case histories
showing the recipients' names, addresses, purposes of awards, manner of selec
tion,' and relationship (if arty) to 'members, officers, trustees or donors of

funds to you, so that you can substantiate upon request by the Internal Revenue
Service any and all distributions you made to individuals. (Revenue Ruling
56-304, C.B. 1956 -2, page 306.)
If we said in the heading of this letter that an addendum applies, the
addendum enclosed is an integral part of this letter.
Because this letter could help us resolve any questions about your exempt
status and foundation status, you should keep it in your permanent records.

in your power of attorney.

Dear Alice,
Roger C. Cuevas
Superintendent
Miami -Dade County Public Schools
During the 1998 -99 school year, Ludlam Elementary was fortunate to have you working with our
fourthtfifih grade alternative education class on an entrepreneurial program. As principal at
Ludlam, I would like to share my perspective of this wonderful endeavor and its impact on our
children.
Previous to the inception of 'Art by Kids ", the alternative education class was plagued with
students functioning in the tower academic range and exhibiting behavioral problems. The
students in this class had been experiencing continuous failure in one form or another. Thanks to
your innovative ideas and hard work, coupled with a dedicated and caring teacher, these children
experienced success, some of them for the first time in their lives.
As an administrator, it was most rewarding to watch these children change, develop and grow
both academically and socially. They discovered a real purpose for teaming and improved their
academic levels through a hands on approach to the world of business. Their self confidence
soared as they experienced the success of developing a product, marketing and producing k, and
reaping the monetary rewards. They learned about business proposals, production costs and
meeting deadlines. Their interpersonal skills improved and they were able to interact with
business people in the real world. Through hard work and dedication, their test scores improved,
as did their behavior. This class became the envy of other students in the school.
It is with great pride that i talk about the accomplishments of the "Art by Kids' entrepreneurial
program. l am most appreciative of the multitude of volunteer hours you committed to creating a
successful and meaningful teaming environment for these students. This life- changing
experience has greatly impacted the future of these children as they take meaningful rear life
skills with them. It was so rewarding to see lives turners around in a positive direction; white at the
same time academic functioning was increasing.
It is my hope that this entrepreneurial program continues to grow in the coming years. This is a
program that all children can benefit from. It validates the purpose for education by giving
meaning to the skills students are learning. l look forward to our continued teamwork in an effort
to provide real school -to -work experiences for children. Thank you for all you have done to enrich
the lives of children at Ludlam Elementary School,
Sincerely,
Kristine Dittmar, Principal

Dear Ms. Horn :
In summary of our recent meeting, I fully support your efforts to expand the
entrepreneurial project for at -risk kids, which has already been started at Ludlam
Elementary School.
Having seen these kids in action, I am convinced this program is one of the most
effective ways of introducing children to the world of work, developing basic skills, and
building self - esteem. The children to the program are confident, excited about their
business venture, and glowing with pride about the products they have created. We need
to see more of this in the City of South Miami!
To help this worthwhile program develop and grow, KidVentures will need to partner
with businesses and organizations that are equally committed to the welfare of children.
Based on the merits of your program, I am convinced you will be successful in
establishing such partnerships.
Thanks for your efforts on behalf of our children.
Sincerely,

Dear Mrs. Horn:
I am extremely excited about the academic potential of the KidVentures project! Seeing the
reaction and the academic spurt of the Drop -out Prevent students in your initial pilot (Art by Kids) at
Ludlam Elementary has convinced me that school -to -work initiatives should be included in every
classroom at every grade level!
While reviewing the types of tasks required of the students, such as a Business Plan, Marketing
Plan, Proposals, and the actual product itself, it became evident that you have ingeniously injected
mathematics, reading, and writing in an authentic, practical way into life -like learning context that is
highly motivating to students. in doing so, you incorporate many of the cutting edge principles in
education today.
• Authentic Tasks
• Choice
• Realistic, Hands on, Embedded Curriculum
• Demonstrations of Mastery; Realistic Assessment
Cooperative Learning/Tasks; Team Work
• Whole -Child Development vs. Skill and Drill
And, as could be predicted, the students responded whole- heartedly —both to the task and to the need to
team specific skills because they were necessary, not just assigned.
So, know that you have my whole- hearted, enthusiastic endorsement of your program_ I will
help support your project with any resource at my disposal.

to extend parking modifications
REOUEST
AN ORDINANCE OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
SOUTH MIAMI, FLORIDA, RELATING TO THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE,
SPECIFICALLY REGULATIONS DEALING WITH PROVISIONS THAT ALLOW
FOR THE REDUCTION OF REQUIRED OFF - STREET PARKING BY AMENDING
ORDINANCE NO. 8 -99 -1682 IN ORDER TO CONTINUE FOR AN ADDITIONAL
NINE (9) MONTHS THE MODIFICATIONS MADE TO SECTION 20- 7.6(B), AND
THE SUSPENSION OF SECTION 20- 4.4(G) AND SECTION 20- 4.4(H), PROVIDING
FOR SEVERABILITY, ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT, AND PROVIDING AN
EFFECTIVE DATE.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS
In May 1999, the City Commission adopted Ordinance No. 8 -99 -1682, which modified
and suspended certain provisions of the Land Development Code dealing with reductions
in off-street parking requirements. The ordinance was adopted in response to concerns
about the impact of the Shops of Sunset Place on parking in the downtown area. It was
felt that certain provisions, e.g., reduced parking near Metrorail and reduced parking
based upon joint uses, should be suspended for a period of nine months. In addition, the
ordinance modified the parking reductions allowed in the Hometown District so that
during the same nine -month period only the City Commission could approve parking
reductions for large projects.
The purpose of the nine -month period was to allow time for staff and citizens to
reevaluate the City's parking regulations and to make necessary changes. This evaluation
is not complete. In addition, the City Commission recently created a Zoning Task Force,
which will be reviewing the Land Development Code including the Hometown District
Overlay Ordinance. It would be appropriate to allow additional time to complete the
review and for considering possible amendments. The attached ordinance amends the
May 1999 ordinance by extending the modifications and suspensions for nine (9)
additional months.
The City Commission at its February 15, 2000 meeting adopted the ordinance on first
reading. The Planning Board at its March 14, 2000 meeting held a public hearing on the
proposed ordinance and recommended approval.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the attached proposed ordinance be adopted.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SOUTH

ENTITLED "DEFINITIONS" IN ORDER TO REVISE THE DEFINITION OF HOME

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
The South Miami Land Development Code currently allows occupational licenses to be issued as a
permitted use for home locations, subject to certain standards and conditions which are listed in
Section 20-3.6(P). However, the Code also requires a public hearing to be held by the Planning Board
and the City Commission on any application for a home occupational license (Section 20-5.5). This is
an inconsistency that needs to be corrected. The City has recently received a number of home
occupation license applications which have been placed on hold pending a resolution of this
inconsistency
It is important to note that up to 1992 the Land Development Code did require a public hearing on each
home occupation license application. This requirement was removed by the adoption of Ordinance 1-
92 -1496 which deleted the existing review and approval process. At that time the current standards
which provide for an administrative review process were made part of the Code. Unfortunately the
specific requirement of a public hearing was not removed from the Code at that time. The proposed
ordinance would correct the situation by eliminating the two references to the public hearing
requirement.
The first reading ordinance which was before the City commission at its March 7, 200 meeting
proposed that home occupations should be limited, by definition, to office -type uses. It was felt that
the limitation of a home occupation to office type uses would reduce any potential impact on a
residential neighborhood, The Planning Board at its March 14, 2000 meeting felt strongly that limiting
home occupations to office -type uses would be too restrictive. The attached ordinance does not contain
the limitation of office -use only as it reflects the Planning Board's recommendation on the matter.
The proposed ordinance does contain a number of modifications to the current conditions applicable to
home occupations. The revisions are necessary to tighten up the existing standards. A final section of
the ordinance provides for new requirements to assure that the City has the ability to regulate and
inspect home occupation licensees In Section (3)(b) on p.4, the ordinance also proposes that an
applicant must provide an affidavit allowing for mandatory inspection by the City if there is probable
cause that a violation exists.
The Planning Board at its March 14 2000 meeting recommended approval of the revised ordinance by
a 5 -0 vote.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached ordinance as recommended by the
Planning Board.

A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
SOUTH MIAMI, RELATING TO A REQUEST PURSUANT TO SECTION 20-
3.4(B)(4)(b) OF THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE FOR A SPECIAL USE
APPROVAL TO LOCATE A GENERAL RESTAURANT IN THE "SR," SPECIALTY
RETAIL DISTRICT SPECIFICALLY LOCATED AT MYRA & COMPANY'S DAY
SPA, 7313 SW 59 COURT.
APPLICANT'S PROPOSAL
The applicant is requesting a Special Use Approval to operate a Cafe, at the above
referenced location. The intent of the cafe is to serve only the patrons of the spa on the
existing outdoor patio area. Operating hours of the cafe shall be the same as the existing
beauty shop. The proposed Cafe consists of a kitchen of approximately 125 square feet, to
be located within the existing Myra & Company's Day Spa facility and an outdoor patio
connected by a walkway.
SPECIAL CONDITIONS APPLICABLE
The LDC provides that special uses must be approved by the City Commission after a
public hearing and receipt of a recommendation from the Planning Board. The overall
purpose is to determine the compatibility of the proposed use with the surrounding
neighborhood. In addition, special uses may also be required to comply with the additional
requirements, which are set forth in Section 20- 3.4(B)(4)(b). In the case of a general
restaurant the following supplemental requirements are listed:
(i) All such establishments shall provide only inside or patio service on private
property. Public streets, rights -of -way, sidewalks and required setbacks may not be
. used for patio or street -side services of any kind.
(ii) No services of a drive -in or of a fast food nature shall be permitted.
(W)i(The city commission shall review and recommend approval, disapproval or
modification of all site plans and project specifications for this special use
ANALYSIS
The proposed use is located in the "SR" Specialty Retail district. A general restaurant is
- permitted with a Special Use Approval. A general restaurant must meet the requirements
for special uses contained under Section 20- 3.4(B)(4)(b) General Restaurant and Section
20 -5.8 Special Use Approval of the LDC. A general restaurant shall mean an
establishment where the principal business is the sale of food and beverages to the
customer in a ready -to- consume state and where the design shall provide a sit -down area
for the customers. Although not listed as a permitted use in the "SR ", Special Realty
District, the proposed Cafe is best described as an accessory restaurant. Pursuant to
Section 20- 3.4(B)(16) an accessory restaurant requires the following supplemental
conditions:
(a) Such uses are located entirely within the principal building for the convenience
of the occupants of or visitors to the principal use;
(b) Such uses do not occupy more than ten (10) percent of the gross floor area of
the principal building in which located; and
(c) Such uses shall not have any signs or advertising visible from outside the
principal building.
The proposed Cafe meets the requirements of an accessory restaurant. It is the staff's
observation that no additional parking is required due to the fact that all the users of the
Cafe will be the patrons of the beauty shop. The cafe will not be open to the public and
will not generate additional traffic. Moreover, there are a total of 21 available spaces
where only 18 is required.
The requested special use complies with the LDC requirements set forth for special uses in
Section 20 -3.4 and the proposed use meets the conditional requirements set forth in
Section 20 -5.8 (B)(1) in that the use:
a) Will not adversely affect the health or safety of persons residing or working in
the vicinity of the proposed use,
b) Will not be detrimental to the public welfare or property or improvements in the
neighborhood; and,
c) Complies with all other applicable Code provisions.
The proposed use does not conflict with the Comprehensive Plan and meets the
requirements set forth for special uses and for general restaurants as stated above.

To: Mayor and City Commission Date: April 14, 2000
From: Charles D. Scum Agenda Item #
City Manager Comm. Mtg. 4/18/00
Special Use approval
5898 Sunset Drive
REQUEST
A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SOUTH
MIAMI, RELATING TO A REQUEST PURSUANT TO SECTION 20- 3.4(B)(4)(b) OF THE
LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE FOR A SPECIAL USE APPROVAL TO LOCATE A
GENERAL RESTAURANT IN THE "SR," SPECIALTY RETAIL DISTRICT
SPECIFICALLY AT 5898 SUNSET DRIVE.
APPLICANT'S PROPOSAL
The applicant is requesting a Special Use Approval to operate a general restaurant, a pizzeria, at
the above referenced location. The proposed area of the restaurant is to be located within an
existing one story retail building. It will occupy a total of 1,530 square feet, and will have a
traditional family oriented casual atmosphere serving salads, sandwiches, focaccia, pizza and a
variety of breads accompanied by soda, wine and imported beers. Operating hours are from
11:00 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 11:00 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. Friday and
Saturday.
SPECIAL CONDITIONS APPLICABLE
The LDC provides that special uses must be approved by the City Commission after a public
hearing and receipt of a recommendation from the Planning Board. The overall purpose is to
determine the compatibility of the proposed use with the surrounding neighborhood. In addition,
special uses may also be required to comply with the additional requirements, which are set forth
in Section 20- 3.4(B)(4)(b). In the case of a general restaurant the following supplemental
requirements are listed:
(i) All such establishments shall provide only inside or patio service on private property.
Public streets, rights -of -way, sidewalks and required setbacks may not be used for patio
or street -side services of any kind.
(ii) No services of a drive -in or of a fast food nature shall be permitted.
(iii) The city commission shall review and recommend approval, disapproval or
modification of all site plans and projects specifications for this special use permit.
ANALYSIS
The proposed use is located in the "SR" Specialty Retail district. A general restaurant is
permitted with a Special Use Approval. The proposed use must meet the requirements for special
uses contained under Section 20- 3.4(B)(4)(b) General Restaurant and Section 20 -5.8 Special Use
Approval of the LDC. A general restaurant shall mean an establishment where the principal
business is the sale of food and beverages to the customer in a ready -to- consume state and where
the design shall provide a sit -down area for the customers. A restaurant having 1,530 square feet
requires one space for every 100 square feet for a total of 16 parking spaces. The previous retail
use was less intense, requiring one space for every 300 square feet, resulting in a credit of only
six parking spaces. As a result of a more intense use the applicant needs ten additional parking
spaces. Allowing for the three existing parking spaces in front, seven additional parking spaces
are required. The applicant has complied by providing staff with a letter stating that the
remaining seven parking spaces will be leased through the City of South Miami at the South
Miami Metro Rail Station parking garage.
The requested special use complies with the LDC requirements set forth for special uses in
Section 20 -3.4 and the proposed use meets the conditional requirements set forth in Section 20
5.8(B)(1) in that use:
a) Will not adversely affect the health or safety of persons residing or working in the
vicinity of the proposed use,
b) Will not be detrimental to the public welfare or property or improvements in the
neighborhood; and,
c) Complies with all other applicable Code provisions.
The proposed use does not conflict with the Comprehensive Plan and meets the requirements set
forth for special uses and general restaurant as stated above.
PLANNING BOARD ACTION
The subject application was presented to the Planning Board at its April 11, 2000 meeting, At
that time the Board adopted a motion (6 -0) recommending approval of the application subject to
the following conditions: 1) that seven parking spaces are leased prior to issuance of a certificate
of occupancy and that this application should include a parking allocation letter provided by the
City to the leasee before going to the City Commission; 2) that the interior structure will be
modified to allow for refuse removal and deliveries via the adjacent restaurant.

A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF SOUTH MIAMI, FLORIDA, RELATING TO THE CULTURAL AND
COMMUNITY GRANTS PROGRAM; AWARDING A GRANT OF $18,736.00 TO
RED /SUNSET MERCHANTS ASSOCIATION; CHARGING THE AWARD TO
ACCOUNT #01- 2100 - 519 -9910, ENTITLED "CONTRIBUTION— SPECIAL
EVENTS"; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS
The Red /Sunset Merchants Association (the "Association ") submitted a Cultural and Community
Grants Program Application to the City of South Miami which sought funding of $246,800 for
various events and activities. Recognizing that the request contained many exciting and much -
needed initiatives but far outstripped the funding available for the Cultural and Community
Grants Program, Commissioner Russell requested that Mayor Robaina convene a public
workshop on the matter.
On April 10, 2000, the Mayor and City Commission held a public workshop regarding the
Association's funding request, allowing merchants, residents and city officials to discuss the
current status of the Association and the downtown, to identify needs and opportunities and to
explore implementation strategies. The meeting was very positive and enabled the City and
Association to take a critical first step towards positioning the Association and downtown for
greater success.
As a result of the dialogue between the Association and City, the Association presented a revised
grant application to the Grants Advisory Board on April 12, 2000. The application requested a
total award of $24,736, consisting of $9,644 for the 16th Annual South Miami Arts and Crafts
Festival, $1,500 for the 1999 holiday decorations, $1,592 for 1999 Safe Streets Halloween and
$12,000 for a marketing initiative.
In its deliberations, the Grants Advisory Board clearly supported the funding of the holiday
decorations and well -known events, but was hesitant to fully fund the marketing initiative, which
it considered to be "operating costs ". Therefore, the Board voted 5 -0 to recommend a total
award of $18,736, consisting of $9,644 for the 16th Annual South Miami Arts and Crafts
Festival, $1,500 for the 1999 holiday decorations, $1,592 for 1999 Safe Streets Halloween and
$6,000 for a marketing initiative with the condition that the funding of the marketing initiative be
a one -time exception. This is summarized below.

ASSOCIATION
Since its inception, The Red Sunset Merchants Association has been a major booster of
the City of South Miami. Through advertising, through contributions to and
volunteering for city sponsored events and programs and the production of our own
festivals and holidays celebrations, we have endeavored to showcase our special city.
The past two years have been especially challenging for both the merchants and the
city, what with the monumental modification of our cityscape and the mostly
unwarranted negative publicity associated with these changes. Consequently, a major
advertising and public relations campaign is required.
The RSMA has recently applied for a more comprehensive grant to help realize this
goal. The city commission and administration along with the merchants is looking for a
consistent and fertile source of funding for this mutually recognized imperative.
However, as we have some immediate needs, we are requesting your consideration of
the following items:
1. In February, the merchants association put on the I6`" annual South Miami
• Arts and Crafts Festival. This event is consistently recognized as one of top
shows of its type in the country. The total budget for this event was
$55,525.00. We are requesting a grant of $9,644.00, including $3,599.00 for
police, $4,045.00 for public works and $2,500.00 towards the advertising
expense of $10,000.00.
2. Every holiday season, for as long as can be remembered, the RSMA has
provided the decorations and entertainment for downtown South Miami-. For
1999, the association spent $3,132.00 on decorations, ` advertising and
caroling. We are requesting a grant of $1,500.00.
3. In the mid 1980's, cavities and indigestion were no longer the only concerns
parents were confronted with on Halloween; the RSMA stepped in and
created Safe Streets Halloween. An instant success, this event provided a
secure environment for children to trick or treat and a`wonderful depiction of
our city. Aside from the cost of candy for the individual merchants, expenses
for the 1999 event were $2,145.25. We are requesting a grant of $1,592.00,
including ` $814.00 for police, $643.00 for public works and $135.00 for
permits.
4. In order to plan and implement our marketing initiative, the creativity and
expertise of a professional public. relations and advertising firm is essential.
We are requesting $2,000.00 a month for six months, a total of $12,000.00 to
retain such services.
In past years the city has sponsored and contributed to these aforementioned events and
activities and last year we received a grant to employ a public relations firm. We used
these funds to create advertising, which we then paid to place in area publications.
We appreciate your past assistance and your consideration of this year's proposal.
Together we can preserve and advance this incomparable city we all treasure.
Every year the Red Sunset Merchants Association presents a variety of events for the
benefit of the city, merchants, and residents; as well as, for the enjoyment of the general public.
Safe Streets Halloween and the annual South Miami Arts and Crafts Festival are among two of
the most popular, well attended, and prominent venues associated with the City of South Miami.
Safe Streets Halloween, now in its twelfth season, provides children, parents, and area merchants
the opportunity to enjoy the Halloween experience in a safe and attractive atmosphere. The
annual South Miami Arts and Crafts Festival, now in its seventeenth year, is a ranked and
celebrated fine arts and crafts festival which is popular among artists from all over the country,
and well attended by people from all parts of South Florida. Every year, this show is a successful
presentation of art, entertainment, music and food. This is event is also a large fundraiser for
charities associated with Rotary of South Miami.
As with all merchant association events, both of these are:
• Free to the public
• Unites all sectors of the community
• Community /family oriented
• Provides entertainment and/or educational value
• Showcases the city and its downtown
• Attracts New- comers to the area
• Enhances the visibility of the merchants
