It was good to see you when I dropped by at City Hall. Julio, as we discussed during our short visit on Monday, I would like very much to stay involved in helping our city to grow. As you stated. I do care very much about our city and wish participate in any way that would be of service to you and the commission. In our discussion you asked about what areas would be of interest to me. After thinking about what areas where I might be of use. there were three possibilities: The first, as we talked about earlier, would be to work on the Grants Advisory Committee that will be established to help and advise the commission regarding any funds offered to groups for projects within the City of South Miami. The second area. if there are any vacancies, would be on the Planning Board Should you refer to the attached resume, you will see that I have a Masters of Science in Management and a Masters Certificate in Public Administration. Many of the courses that were taken in these areas focused on city development. The final area where I felt that I could be of assistance would be a part of the Recreation and Cultural Committee that you spoke of at Tuesday evening's commission meeting. I have had experience in coordinating cultural events as welt as educational programs. I would welcome the opportunity to serve in any of these areas. Should you wish to speak with me about any of these. please feet free to call me at 667 -5039. I wilt look forward to hearing from you. H6t-f :OT 866 T Sincereiv. Randy C7.

It was good to see you when .I dropped by at City Hall. Julio, as we discussed during our short visit on Monday, I would like very much to stay involved in helping our city to grow. As you stated. I do care eery much about our city and wish participate in any way that w=ould be of service to you and the commission. in our discussion you asked about what areas would be of interest to me. After thinking about what areas where I night be of use, there were three possibilities: The first, as we talked about earlier, would be to work on the Grants Advisory Committee that will be established to help and advise the commission regarding any funds offered to groups for projects within the City of South Miami. The second area. if there are any vacancies, would be on the Planning Board. Should you refer to the attached resume, you will see that I have a Masters of Science in Management and a Masters Certificate in Public Administration. Many of the courses that were taken in these areas focused on city development. The final area where I felt that I could be of assistance would be a part of the Recreation and Cultural Committee that you spoke of at Tuesday evening's commission meeting. I have had experience in coordinating cultural events as well as educational programs. I would welcome the opportunity to serve in any of these areas. Should you wish to speak with me about any of these, please feel free to call me at 667 -5039. 1 will look forward to hearing from you. Sincerely. Randy CF.

This purchase will satisfy computing needs of the new temporary position. ■ CD Writer device, to satisfy the needs for large storage of digital photographs, which are being generated daily by the Code Enforcement division. This device will also allow backup of PC workstations, purchase of which has been approved by the adopted Computer Network Budget 97/98. ■ Digital Camera, to satisfy newly appearing needs by City departments to use digital photographs in their projects. Dell and Wareforce vendors have the State Florida contracts, which eliminated a need for additional quotes. I recommend that this resolution be placed on the April 21, 1998 Commission Meeting agenda. Thank you. To: Diana Morris Interim City Manager From: Slaven Kobola, AICP ISIGIS Coordinator CITY OF SOUTH MIAMI Date: April 16, 1998 Re: Purchase of New Computer Network Items There is a need for the following computer equipment, as follows: ■ GIS Server - Dell P6400 GX1 /MT, $4,433. This computer will retire the currently used Compaq DeskPro XL 590 computer, bought in 1995, which has became overwhelmed by the processing requirements resulting from the increase of users connecting to it, as well as by the new software and applications assignments. As explained in the adopted Computer Network Budget 97/98, this computer will be more appropriate for the processing. ■ Computer Workstation - Dell P6300 GxaEM +/L, $1,888. This computer was approved by the adopted Computer Network Budget 97/98 in order to satisfy the needs that will arise by introduction of the City Clerk's Support and Intern positions. The purchase of this computer at an earlier date will satisfy the need for a computer by the currently instituted temporary position in the Central Services office. ■ CD Writer - Hewlett Packard SureStore Plus 7200E + media, $563.95, from Wareforce. This device will allow backup of PC workstations, purchase of which has been approved by the adopted Computer Network Budget 97/98. In addition, it will satisfy the needs for large storage of digital photographs, which are being generated daily by the Code Enforcement division. ■ Digital Camera - Kodak DC210, $684.75, from Wareforce. This camera should satisfy the increasing needs by City departments to use digital photographs in their projects. The two digital cameras that have been already purchased for the Code Enforcement could not be used by others due to their heavy load of assignments. The above equipment has received a number of excellent evaluations by computer sources. Considering the purchasing requirements, Dell Marketing L.P. is a provider under the Florida State Contract 250- 040 -96 -1 and Wareforce, Inc. is a provider under Florida State Contract 252- 001 -97 -1. I hope that you will approve these prurchases. 33 RESOLUTION NO.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SOUTH MIAMI, FLORIDA, RELATING TO LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS; PROVIDING FOR REGULATION OF GARAGE SALES; AMENDING SECTION 20 -2.3 OF THE SOUTH MIAMI LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE TO DEFINE "GARAGE SALE,"' CREATING SECTION 20 -4.10 OF THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE TO BE ENTITLED "GARAGE SALE,"' PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY, ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT, AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE. (Mayor Robaina) 3/5 Moved by Vice Mayor Oliveros, seconded by Commissioner Bethel to approve this item on first reading with second reading and public hearing scheduled after review by the Planning Board. Mayor Robaina related that he'd sponsored this item because he'd received numerous calls on the uncontrolled garage sales. Interim Manager Morris related that the city did not have Code Enforcement Officers working on weekends so enforcement could be a problem. Attorney Gallop explained, this ordinance is patterned after regulations used in Coral Gables. He recited the definition of garage sales. He further detailed what this ordinance would and would not permit. He pointed out that this ordinance also anticipates the payment of a fee. He further related that this ordinance limited the hours for a garage sale and provides for enforcement requiring the permit to be displayed or made available to the Code Enforcement officer upon request. He said this ordinance also allows for Code Enforcement officers to go onto private property to determine if the person in fact does have a permit. Mayor Robaina commented that he did not want the citizens to be burden with having to pay a fee for having a garage sale. He concurred with having a permit, which would provide some type of accountability. Commissioner Russell asked if Attorney Gallop knew how much cost to the city a permit would be. Attorney Gallop explained, the cost is the cost to Code Enforcement. He said what he had in mind was a $25.00 fee. Commissioner Russell opined that twice a year is a more reasonable limitation. She suggested incorporating a "first time warning" for violators. REGULAR CITY COMMISSION 24 MINUTES - February 17, 1998 as Attorney Gallop explained the way Code Enforcement works when a person is not in compliance or is in violation of an ordinance. The violation is given a warning and a reasonable period of time to correct the violation. before a notice of violation is issued to them. He suggested having these recommendations passed on to the Planning Board for evaluation and recommendation back to the City Commission. Vice Mayor Oliveros asked once a resident request a permit is notification given to the neighbors. Attorney Gallop replied "no ". Vice Mayor Oliveros said this is one of the main problems. It is not the actual people doing the sale in the yard. It's the patrons parking on the grass and yards of the surrounding neighbors. He suggested a provision notifying the immediate surrounding neighbors be incorporated into this ordinance. He said the neighbors have to be considered. Mayor Robaina said it the surrounding neighbors are going to be notified a fee would have to be charged because the city will incur expenses mailing out the notices. Vice Mayor Oliveros said that he would rather have a fee imposed than to have two neighbors fighting against each other. Interim Manager Morris said not only is an expense incurred from sending out notices but the area to be covered has to be defined. She opined that a fee might be a good idea because of in -house staff involved [code enforcement, and finance dept.] Vice Mayor Oliveros suggested having the applicant come in with the signatures from his immediate neighbors [on both sides] approving of the garage sale. Mayor Robaina concurred with Vice Mayor Oliveros and Commissioner Russell's suggestions. Attorney Gallop commented, the suggestion is to have the applicant acquire the signature of the neighbors on either side of the applicant on the same side of the street. He asked if the Commission intended for the city to have any obligation to verify either the signature of the person signing that the in fact is the property owner of the lawful tenant. Commissioner Feliu commented, why would the signature be in doubt unless there is a complaint by one of the neighbor's. REGULAR CITY COMMISSION 25 MINUTES - February 17, 1998 Attorney Gallop said he wanted the Commission to understand what administration's responsibility is. Mayor Robaina further asked that a provision be added to prohibit the notification of garage sales being erected on tree barks. Attorney Gallop advised the Commission that he would amend this ordinance to delete the reference to payment of a profit fee. He said that he would add language allowing two garage sales per year. He said that he would also prepare language - amending sign regulations in the Land Development Code. As well as add language that requires the application to contain the signatures of the two adjacent residences consenting to the garage sale. He said he would also add language prohibiting the fastening of garage sale sign(s) to tree bark. Mayor Robaina further suggested adding telephone polls to this provision. Interim Manager Morris asked what kind fine would be imposed for this violation. She reiterated there are no Code Enforcement officers working on Saturday. Mayor Robaina said that the city would have to resort to the police department for enforcement purposes. Attorney Gallop said there is a general fee for up to $500.00. He said the Code Enforcement Board had adopted a fine schedule.in which different violations or infractions are ranked. He advised the Commission that the revised draft ordinance would be provided to the Commission in their Friday packet. There being no further discussion, the motion with the amendments passed by a 5 -0 vote.

Mr. Basu related concerns he had with the ordinance as proposed, including the requirement to obtain signatures and the prohibition of two or families being involved in one garage sale. d.

(2) Non - specimen Trees Procedures for determining tree replacement. The Planning Division shall determine the total number of replacement trees required for the issuance of a tree removal permit according to the following procedural steps: Step 1: Determining existing tree canopy coverage on -site. The area of existing tree canopy coverage of a site shall be determined by review of aerial photography, on -site inspection', or review of a tree survey. Exhibit A 29 Step 2: Determining impact area of proposed project.- The area of existing canopy coverage which will be affected (impact area) by the applicant's proposed development shall be determined by the Planning Division based on review of the submitted site plan and tree removal permit application form. Step 3 Determining number of replacement trees required. The total number of trees required for replacement shall be based on the area of impact and category of replacement tree selected by the applicant. Each replacement tree shall compensate for a portion of the tree canopy lost in the impact area, and the following table shall be used as a standard for determining the required number of replacement trees: Category of Replacement Tree (See Step 6 below for explanation) Portion of Impact Area for which Each Replacement Tree Compensates Shade Tree 1 500 square feet replacement area Shade Tree 2 300 square feet replacement area Palm Tree 1 300 square feet replacement area Palm Tree 2" 100 _square feet replacement area Small Tree 1200 square feet replacement area a) Any combination of shade trees, palm trees, or small trees is acceptable as replacement, provided the total number of trees from all replacement categories compensate for the lost canopy. b) In the event that a replacement tree actually has more canopy coverage at the time of planting than the amount of credit allowed under the tree replacement formula above, then the applicant shall receive full credit for the actual canopy coverage provided by the replacement tree at the time of planting. c) The applicant shall submit a;list of proposed replacement trees. d) When replacement canopy area exceeds ten thousand (10,000) square feet, replacement shall be _described in a landscape replacement plan 'which shall meet the minimum requirements of § 20- 4.5(J)(4), and no tree removal permit shall be issued until said plan has been approved by the Planning Division. e) When the total number of replacement trees exceeds twenty (20), then the applicant shall required to submit a landscape replacement plan - consistent with the provisions of § 20- 4.5(J)(4), and no tree removal permit shall be issued until said plan has been approved by the Planning Division. Step 4: Location of replacement trees. Specific placement of replacement trees on' -site shall be determined by the applicant. If the site cannot accommodate the required replacement trees because of insufficient planting, area as determined by the Planning Division, then the applicant shall be required to plant replacement trees at an off -site location subject to Planning Division approval, or, as a last alternative, shall provide a contribution to Account No 219.355, Tree Trust Fund, to compensate for those replacement trees which cannot be accommodated on site. Exhibit A 30 Step 5:' Minimum , species diversity standards. When more than ten (10) trees are required to be planted, in accordance with provisions of § 20- 4.5(J), _a diversity of species shall be required. The number of species to be planted shall be based on the overall number of trees required. The applicant shall be required to meet the following minimum diversity standards Required Number of Trees Minimum Number of Species 11 -20 2 21 -50 4 51 or more 6 a) When native trees are removed, then all replacement trees shall be native species; otherwise, a minimum of fifty (50) percent of all replacement trees planted shall be native to Dade County. b) Permittees shall not be required to plant in excess of six (6) species. The number of trees of each species planted shall be proportional to the number of species required. c) As an alternative to the minimum species diversity required herein, an applicant; may propose an alternative species diversity in an alternative landscape enhancement plan described in § 20- 4.5(J)(5) Step 6: Minimum standards for replacement trees. The Planning Division maintains a list of species for each category of replacement tree; and, this list may be amended from time to time. All replacement trees shall have a` minimum quality as required for -a Florida No. 1 grade or better. Replacement tree _heights shall be determined by the overall height measured from where the tree meets the ground to the top -most branch, frond or leaf. (a) All category 1 replacement shade trees shall be a minimum of twelve (12) feet in height at the time of planting and at maturity' should have a canopy coverage of five hundred (500) square feet under normal growing conditions (b) All category 2 replacement shade trees shall be a minimum of eight (8) feet in height at the time of planting and at maturity should have a canopy coverage of five hundred (500) square feet under normal growing conditions. (c) All category 1 replacement palm trees shall be a minimum of ten (10) feet in height at the time of planting and at maturity should have a canopy coverage of three hundred (300) square feet under normal growing conditions.,, (d) All category 2 replacement palm trees shall be a minimum of three (3) feet in height at the time of planting and at maturity should have a canopy coverage of one hundred (100) square feet under normal growing conditions. (e) All small trees shall be a minimum of six (6) feet in height at the time of planting and at maturity should have a canopy coverage of two hundred (200) square feet under normal growing conditions Exhabat A 31 (3) Specimen Trees The standards to be applied in reviewing tree removal ,permit applications involving specimen trees are as follows: (a) Specimen Tree Preservation. Specimen trees shall be preserved whenever reasonably possible, and, upon receipt of an application to remove (a) specimen tree(s), the Planning Division shall consider the following factors in evaluating said application: i. Size and configuration of the property; ii. Size and configuration of any proposed development; iii. Location of the tree relative to any proposed development iv. Whether or not the tree can be ,preserved under the proposed plan or any alternative plan; V. Health, condition and aesthetic qualities of the tree; and, vi. Whether the tree poses a threat to persons or property. (b) Alternate plans If, after review of above, the Planning Division determines that (a) specimen tree(s) cannot reasonably be preserved under a proposed plan, then the applicant shall provide an alternate plan, which shall include preservation of the specimen tree(s) and design alternations consistent with the scope and intent of the initially - proposed plan. These alterations may include, but shall not be limited to: i. An adjustment of building orientation on a site; and, ii. An adjustment of lot lines within a site proposal for more than one lot when the adjustment will not cause unreasonable loss of usable space. An applicant shall have the burden of proof in the determination of what constitutes an unreasonable loss of usable space. c) Specimen tree relocation. If preservation of the specimen tree(s) and any alternate design consistent with the _scope and intent of the initial plan are mutually exclusive, then the Planning Division may issue a permit to relocate the specimen tree(s). If a tree removal ,permit requires relocation, then the applicant shall be required to relocate the tree in accordance' with the standards in § 20 -4.5 (K). d) Removal of specimen trees. If relocation of the specimen tree(s): is not feasible due to the size, health, location, species or any other factor, then a permit may be issued for the removal of the specimen tree(s), and tree replacement shall be required." e) Replacement requirements for specimen trees. As a condition of the issuance of a tree removal permit for the removal of specimen trees, Exhibit A 12# tree replacement, requirements shall be twice those specified for the replacement of non- specimen trees under § 20- 4.5(J)(2). f) Fee In the event that replacement is not feasible on site, then alternative off- site replacement shall be required, or, as a last alternative, there shall be a contribution to Account No. 219.355, Tree Trust Fund, for the full value of replacement trees. g) Exemptions from specimen tree replacement requirements. Applicants may be exempt form the replacement requirements above, but subject to the tree replacement requirements contained in § 20- 4.5(J)(2), under the following circumstances: i. Upon submittal of a statement from a landscape architect registered in the State of Florida which indicates that a specimen tree, due to disease, condition, growth habit or any other reasonable botanical factor, does not provide the aesthetic or environmental contribution associated with a specimen tree. Said statement shall include the specific reasons(s) for the claimed exemption from these provisions; ii. When preservation of the specimen tree would cause 'a foreseeable risk to property; or, iii. When a site contains more than one (1) specimen tree, and fifty - (50) percent or more of the existing specimen trees and at least fifty (50) percent of the existing specimen tree canopy area is preserved. (4) Landscape Replacement Plan Landscape replacement plans may be required under the provisions contained in § 20- 4.5(J)(1). All landscape replacement, plans shall be 'submitted by the applicant and must meet the following, minimum standards: (a) The number of trees, ,number of species of trees, and size of trees proposed for planting shall be consistent with § 20- 4.5(J)(2) &(3); (b) The site plan shall include proposed replacement locations for all tree replacements and relocations, and all property lines, proposed and existing structures, driveways and utility easements; and, (c) The canopy spread of any tree that is proposed for preservation shall be shown on the plan.

(c) The applicant shall have the _burden of demonstrating that a design meets the intent of § 20- 4.5(J)(2) &(3). At 'a minimum, an alternative landscaping enhancement plan shall include, without limitation: i. A sealed statement prepared by a landscape architect registered in the State of Florida, which indicates that the ,intent of § 20- - 4.5(J)(2) &(3) can be effectively met through the submission of the alternative design; and, ii. A site plan, prepared by said landscape architect, registered in the State of Florida, that includes the proposed location, scientific name or description of vegetation to be preserved or planted, property lines, proposed and existing structures, driveways and utility easements; and, iii. A tabulation that identifies any deviations from the requirements of § 20- 4.5(J)(2) &(3) and explicitly provides tree replacement alternatives. (d) The Planning Division may approve an alternative landscape enhancement plan when: i. The design preserves and incorporates existing vegetation; and, ii. The design exceeds the minimum requirements or equivalent of § 20 -4.5 (J) (2) & (3) .

County • RECOMMENDATION Date: January 13, 1998 Subject: Ordinance Updating Chapter 18A (Landscape Code) - 98.13 It is recommended that the Board of County Commissioners approve the attached substitute ordinance updating Chapter 18A, Landscape Ordinance, Code of Metropolitan Dade County. BACKGROUND Chapter 18A is a countywide ordinance, approved by the Board of County Commissioners December 5, 1995, establishing minimum landscape standards for properties outside the public right -of -way. At the public hearing, staff of the Department of Planning, Development and Regulation (DPDR) agreed to meet with municipalities, citizens, environmentalists, design professionals, building industry representatives, and other interested parties one; ear after its effective date in order to review the ordinance and prepare necessary modifications. The minimum landscape standards became a permit requirement in February 1996. As agreed when the ordinance was adopted in early 1997, interested parties were mailed a letter notifying them of the initial landscape ordinance review meeting to be held on May 15, 1997. This meeting was attended by approximately 40 individuals, 30 of whom agreed to serve on one of three committees that were formed during the meeting in an effort to break the review process into workable units. A total of 24 committee meetings were subsequently held between .tune, July and August, providing the community with 350 hours of citizen and corporate volunteer work. In addition, staff of DPDR, Department of Environmental Resources Management, Park and Recreation, Public Works Department, the Cooperative Extension Service Division, and the Dade County School Board collectively spent 250 hours of time in committee meetings. Below is a list of those individuals and organizations involved in the review. The proposed modification represents a consensus of all committee members. The committee was unable to reach agreement on the larger issue of native trees; however, the committee is continuing to meet 'to reach a final agreement. Subsequent modification will be recommended in early 1998. County staff and the volunteer committee members have recommended many changes; however, most are only for clarification. Many of the definitions have been clarified, several new definitions have been added and a few were deleted. The section on required landscape plans has been clarified and expanded to provide a faster and more comprehensive review. The amount of turf or grass permitted has been expanded to provide more flexibility. The tree survey requirement was changed to a vegetation survey to be more comprehensive. The lip i oars of County Commissioners Page 2 number and size of trees remains basically the same. The number of shrubs increased from 7 to 10 per required tree. A new section has been added for stormwater retention/detention areas. The landscape maintenance section has been expanded and clarified. A table has been added that provides both the required trees and maximum sod area permitted in a more readable format. Overall, these provisions provide a more practical and enforceable landscape code. The proposed changes will not have any appreciable fiscal impact on -Dade County. Enforcement of these provisions will be easier as a result of greater definition and clarification.

It is the intent of this ordinance to establish minimum landscape standards for Incorporated and Unincorporated Dade County that enhance, improve and maintain the quality of the landscape, and to: (A) Promote xeriscape principles through the use of drought- tolerant landscape species, grouping of plant material by water requirements, the use of irrigation systems that conserve the use of potable and non- potable water supplies and restrictions on the amount of lawn areas. (B) Use landscape material, specifically street trees, to visually define the hierarchy of roadways, and to provide shade and a visual edge along roadways. (C) Prevent the destruction of the community's existing tree canopy and promote its expansion. (D) Provide for the preservation of existing natural forest communities and specimen sized trees in conformance with Chapter 24 -60, as may be amended from time to time; re- establish native habitat where appropriate, and encourage the appropriate use of native plant material in the landscape. (E) Promote the use of trees and shrubs for energy conservation by encouraging cooling through the provision of shade and the channeling of breezes, thereby helping to offset global warming and local heat island effects through the added absorption of carbon dioxide and reduction of heat islands. (F) Contribute to the processes of air movement, air purification, oxygen regeneration, ground water recharge, and stormwater runoff retention, while aiding in the abatement.of noise, glare, heat, air pollution and dust generated by major roadways and intense use areas. )10 Substitute Agenda Item No. 4(W) Page No. 3 (G) Improve the aesthetic appearance of commercial, industrial and residential development through the use of plant material, thereby protecting and increasing property values within the community, and protecting designated historic landscapes. (H) Reduce the negative impacts of exotic pest plant species and prohibit the use of noxious exotic plants which invade native plant communities. (I) Promote the use of trees to protect and buffer the effects of high winds on structures. (n Promote the concept of planting the right tree or plant in the right place to avoid problems such as clogged sewers, cracked sidewalks and power services interruptions. Sec. 18A -3. Definitions.

Mtg. 04/21/98 Deputy City Manager Mojito Grill Restaurant REQUEST: ARESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SOUTH MIAMI, FLORIDA, RELATING TO A REQUEST FOR A SPECIAL USE PERMIT FOR A "RESTAURANT, GENERAL ", PURSUANT TO SECTION 20- 3.4(13)(4)(b) OF THE LAND DEVELOPMENT' CODE, REGARDING THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 7318 RED ROAD, SOUTH MIAMI, FLORIDA 33143; PROVIDING FOR A LEGAL DESCRIPTION; AND, PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE. BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS: The applicant, Mrs. Virginia Guanchez of the Mojito Grill, is requesting a special use permit to operate a "Restaurant, General" at 7318 Red Road. The previous use at this location was also a restaurant, known as Food Works, which provided counter service and limited seating. The new restaurant is proposed to provide seating capacity for 36 patrons, including seating for 24 patrons inside and 12 patrons outside, as shown on the attached floor plan. Please, note that the process for approving outdoor seating is independent of this application. Outdoor seating is approved by the City Manager, pursuant to those standards adopted by the City Commission, as contained in Section 20 -7.29 for the Hometown District and Section 20 -33 (E) for other zoning districts. The definition of General Restaurant, special use conditions for all uses, and specific conditions for General Restaurant are included below: DEFINITION [from Section 20 -2.3; found on page 16 of the Land Development Code] Restaurant, general. 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 or principal method of operation consists of either of the following: Sit -down restaurants where customers are normally provided with an individual menu and food and beverages are generally served in non - disposable containers by a restaurant employee at the same table or counter at which said items are consumed; or, Cafeteria -type restaurants where food and beverages are generally served in non- disposable containers and consumed on the premises. All such cafeteria -type establishments shall provide only inside or patio service on private property. City Manager's Report: Mojito Grill Restaurant Special Use Permit 1 Catering service shall be allowed as an additional use in the SR zoning district. In either the case of Sit -down or Cafeteria -type restaurants, public streets, rights -of -way, and sidewalks may not be used for patio or street -side services of any kind. This use may include takeout service, but exclude any service to a customer in a motor vehicle. Seating must be provided for all patrons dining on the premises. The proposed use is located in the "SR Specialty Retail / Residential zoning district and the Hometown District. A "restaurant, general" is permitted as indicated under Section 20 -7.12 (A) of the Land Development Code [use listed on page 156]; however, the use is noted by an asterisk which is explained under Section 20 -7.12 (C) [found on page 158], indicating that "uses marked with an asterisk require a special use permit." Thus, such uses must meet the requirements for special uses contained under Section 20 -3.4 and Section 20 -5.8 of the Land Development Code. These requirements are the same throughout the City, and excerpted sections are included below: SPECIAL USE CONDITIONS (A) General Requirements [from Section 20 -3.4; found on page 40 of the Land Development Code] (1) All such uses shall comply with all requirements established in the appropriate zoning use district, unless' additional or more restrictive requirements are set forth below or by the City Commission. (2) All such uses shall be determined to be of a compatible and complementary nature with any existing or planned surrounding uses. (3) A public hearing shall be held by the City Commission to determine the overall compatibility of the use with the surrounding neighborhood. (B) Special Requirements [from Section 20 -3.4; found on page 41 of the Land Development Code] (4) RESTAURANTS (b) RESTAURANT, GENERAL 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 project specifications for this Special Use Permit. City Manager's Report: Mojito Grill Restaurant Special Use Permit 2 3Y ANALYSIS: Staff believes that the requested special use complies with the overall requirements stated under Section 20 -5.8 " of the Land Development Code [found on page 111 ], regarding the required conditions for special use approval by the City Commission. Specifically, staff finds that the use meets the conditional requirements set forth in Section 20 -3.4 and that the use: a) Will not adversely affect the health or safety of persons residing or working- in the vicinity of the proposed use [Section 20 -5.8 (B)(1)(a)]; b) Will not be detrimental to the public welfare or property or improvements in the neighborhood [Section 20 -5.8 (B)(1)(b)]; and, -c) Complies with all other applicable Code provisions [Section 20 -5.8 (13)(1)(c)].

Oravec Re: Special Use Permit Planner 7318 Red Road ITEM: PB -98 -005 Applicant: Ms. Virginia Guanchez ( Mojito Grill) Request: A Special Use Permit for a "Restaurant, General" in the Hometown District, as specified in § 20- 3.4(B)(4)(b) of the Land Development Code. Location: 7318 Red Road South Miami, Florida 33143 BACKGROUND Since October 1, 1986. the space at 7318 Red Road has been occupied by a restaurant use, known as Foodworks, which has predominantly served sandwiches and salads with only a small bar area for seating. On March 9. 1999, Virginia Guanchez applied for a special use permit in order to operate a Cuban - American restaurant to be called Mojito Grill at the subject location. ANALYSIS The applicant is requesting a special use permit in order to operate a Cuban - American restaurant, known as Mojito Grill, at 7318 Red Road. The current use at this location is a restaurant, Foodworks, which has been serving sandwiches since 1986. The current use provides only a small bar area for seating. In contrast. NIojito Grill proposes to provide interior seating for 24 patrons and an additional 12 seats outdoors. The proposed floor plan is presented as part of this application. The restaurant will be open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and it is requesting approval of delivery service. The proposed restaurant is located in the Hometown District which promotes a pedestrian oriented environment. The outdoor seating, interior improvements, and menu, which blends traditional American and Cuban cuisine, will help to extend the pedestrian experience south of Sunset Drive. Since the previous use at the location was a restaurant, staff believes that the proposed restaurant use will not negatively impact the property or the surrounding area. In addition staff has determined that approval of the proposed use: 1) Will not adversely affect the health or safety of persons residing or working in the vicinity of the proposed use; 2) Will not be detrimental to the public welfare or property or improvements in the neighborhood; and 3) Complies with all other applicable Code provisions. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN This requested Special Use Permit does not conflict with the adopted Comprehensive Plan of the City of South Miami. APPLICABLE REGULATIONS Land Development Code • Section 20 -2.3 • Section 20 -3.4 • Section 20 -5.8 • Section 20 -7 RECOMMENDATION Definitions Special Use Conditions Special Use Approvals Hometown District Overlay Ordinance Staff recommends APPROVAL.

(2) Special Parking Permit, MetroRail Usage Considerations, to reduce the number of required off - street parking spaces, pursuant to Section 20 -4.4 (H) of the South Miami Land Development Code. Location: 5920 South Dixie Highway South Miami. Florida 33143 BACKGROUND On March 9. 1998, on behalf of property owner, Harvey Amster, Thomas Cooper and Victor Dover applied for a Special Parking Permit, Joint Use Spaces and a Special Parking Permit, MetroRail Usage Considerations, to reduce the number of required off - street parking spaces, in order to provide adequate parking for two proposed mixed -use in -fill buildings to be located on the Amster property, legally described as Lots 1 -10 inclusive; and Lots 20 -24 inclusive; and, Lots 28 -35 inclusive; and, Lots 25, 26, and 27, less the East 10 feet of said lots and less the South 12 feet of Lot 25; and, all that land shown as "alley" lying in the certain block containing Lots 1- 35 of "Dorn's Brothers Subdivision." The South Miami Land Development Code specifies that special parking permit procedures will follow those procedures established for special use permits. Therefore, in order to recommend approval of a special parking permit, the Planning Board must find that it: (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. ANALYSIS The requests have been made in order to provide parking for the two proposed in -fill mixed -use buildings. With the exception of parking, the buildings comply with all other regulations of the Land Development Code. Furthermore, they offer an excellent example of the development envisioned by the City's Hometown Plan, as evidenced by the Hometown Plan's "Hypothetical Roof Plan." Please find attached a thorough analysis of the two proposed buildings and site. as it relates to parking, which was prepared by the applicants and found to be generally true and correct by staff. As noted in the attachment, the existing site is required to provide 96 (49.89 + 45.92) parking spaces pursuant to current LDC regulations, but the site is not required to comply with the current code because it is "grandfathered." The addition of the new buildings would result in the loss of "grandfathering," and consequentially, the site would be required to provide the 96 parking spaces for existing uses, plus an additional 36 parking spaces for the proposed uses, per Section 20 -7.6 of the LDC, resulting in a total of 132 required parking spaces. The site currently provides 69 total parking spaces, 53 on -site and 16 adjacent street spaces, in a non - conforming parking lot. The subject proposal would provide thirteen less spaces (56 total) because of the proposed building fronting Dorn Avenue, and the applicants' desire to meet other code provisions, such as landscaping. Section 20 -4.4 (G) of the LDC, Joint Use Spaces via Special Parking Permit, allows for "two (2) or more uses to share the same required off- street parking spaces in a common parking facility," which is based on the idea that different uses have differing peak demand times for parking. At the subject site. staff has determined that the proposed uses, residential, ice cream shop, office, and retail do have different peak demand times from each other and the existing uses on site, restaurant and drinking place. Therefore, staff believes that the reduction for joint use spaces is appropriate at the subject location, and approval of this special parking permit would require the entire proposed site to provide 103 parking spaces. Section 20 -4.4 (H) of the LDC, MetroRail Usage Considerations via Special Parking Permit, provides for the following: When all or a portion of a proposed structure or use is to be located within one thousand five hundred (1,500) feet of the South Miami MetroRail Station, as measured from property line to property line, four (4) affirmative votes of the city commission may reduce the number of required off - street parking spaces for such use by up to fifty (50) percent, depending upon the nature and type of use and its potential user relationship to rapid transit facilities, as provided for under Section 20 -4.4 (J). Since the proposed site would provide a total of 56 parking spaces, the site requires at least a 46% reduction for MetroRail Usage Considerations [103 — (.46 x 103) = 56]. The applicant is applying for a 50% reduction in order to provide flexibility, in case of unforeseen events. The majority of the required parking for the two proposed buildings is a result of the ice cream shop (2,408 square feet /12 required parking spaces after automatic mixed -use reduction), office space (7,336 square feet /19 required parking spaces after automatic mixed -use reduction), and retail space (2,520 square feet/5 required parking spaces after automatic mixed -use reduction) with the largest contributor being the proposed office space. Staff believes that an office use located only 450 feet away from the MetroRail Station can establish a substantial user relationship with the MetroRail Facility. Furthermore, staff also believes that the ice cream shop and retail uses can establish a solid user relationship with the facility because of the lively pedestrian atmosphere that is resulting from the improvements to Sunset Drive and other downtown developments. The proposal would provide considerable physical improvement to the existing site. First, the proposed mixed -use buildings would replace vacant land and an outbuilding of Splash, providing continuous street frontage. Second, the parking lot's circulation, safety, and dimensions would be enhanced and brought to current code standards. Third, the dumpsters on the site, which currently seem to be haphazardly scattered, would be consolidated to one central and buffered location. Lastly, the proposal includes complying with current landscape code requirements. Therefore, natural, as well as architectural, beauty would be provided by the project. In sum, staff has found that the approval of the requests for Special Parking Permit, Joint Use Spaces, and Special Parking Permit, MetroRail Usage Considerations, which resulted from the need to provide adequate parking for two proposed mixed -use in -fill buildings to be located on the Amster property: (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. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN The requests do not conflict with the adopted Comprehensive Plan of the City of South Miami. In fact, the subject proposal furthers many of the goals, objectives, and policies of the City, as identified in the Future Land Use Element of the City's adopted comprehensive plan, including: Goal 1 To preserve and enhance the City's small town character. Goal To preserve and enhance the pedestrian character and comparison shopping function of the City's Sunset shopping area. Objective 2.1 Discourage urban commercial sprawl by enhancing downtown South Miami as the prime retail and commercial service center, as specified in the Future Land Use Map. APPLICABLE REGULATIONS Land Development Code • Section 20 -4.4 Off- Street Parking Requirements • Section 20 -4.5 Landscaping and Tree Protection Requirements • Section 20 -5 Procedures and Applications • Section 20 -7 Hometown District Overlay Ordinance Comprehensive Plan • Goals, Objectives, and Policies of the Future Land Use Element RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of both requests.

The site presently has two restaurants, Your Father's Moustache and Deli Lane. 'There is also ;i. drinking establishment named Splash. The "contributive buildings," which. contain Frame Art, Samy's, Alice's Day Off, and Robin's Properties, Inc. are exempt from parking requirements according to the Land Development Code. Two new mixed -use buildings are planned. One is expected to be constructed in the near future, and the second will be constructed at some time in future years. These buildings are precisely what is called for in the Hometown District Overlay Ordinance, and are proposed just as they are depicted in the Hometown Plan illustrations. They will have a mixture of retail, office (and in one case residential) uses under one roof. This infill development will be a vivid demonstration of the vision prescribed in the Hometown Plan's General Principles & Policy Recommendations. This type of development requires less parking, for three reasons. First, since the living, shopping and work environments are close to each other; the need for driving is reduced. The second influence on the amount of parking required for this property is the time -of- day usage of the parking spaces on site and on the streets. The Land Development Code uses a table that defines how various activities impact parking demand at different times of the day. This concept of shared parking allows the community to make more efficient use of its parking resources over a twenty -four hour period and seven days a week. A drinking establishment such as Splash uses its parking primarily very late at night. 58 i c) Sunset Drive.

Retail use of parking varies with respect to the time of day and day of week depending on the type. According to the table in the Code, no activity is considered to be 100% vacant at any time, thus some combination of activities is supposedly ongoing at all times for the sake of calculating the parking requirements. The third influence on the required amount of parking for a site is public transit. The Code says that the owner of this site can request up to a 50% reduction in its parking requirements due to its proximity to the Metrorail station. Encouraging the use of public transit instead of automobile trips results in an improved quality of life, fewer automobile accidents, less air pollution, less traffic congestion -- plus a reduced demand for parking spaces. This incentive was instituted in the Land Development Code to promote infill development around the transit station of the type envisioned by our present proposal. Einstein Brothers Bagels was granted a 48% reduction in its parking requirements for this reason. The site under consideration for the present request is even closer to Metrorail than the bagel shop. If this request of 50% reduction in the parking requirement is granted, the site will be built upon exactly as envisioned in the Hometown Plan. This will reinforce the urban design principles of developing the street edge, create more walkable streets, and having "eyes on the street." It will upgrade the image of the City from South Dixie Highway. Most importantly, it will further a proper scale of commercial development in the SR District. This in turn raises the tax base of the City through ad valorem taxes, occupational license fees, and sales tax. This is the kind of development that can reduce the tax burden for South Miami's homeowners. The attached table will explain the parking count and the needed reductions according to the Code. Sincerely, Victor Dover AICP attachment cc: Harvey Amster Thomas T. Cooper AIA City Manager Diana Morris City Attorney Earl Gallop, Esq. HAEL, C00 ER L7- _'-)soCIAT� S A. a r c h i t e c t u r e TO: Harvey Amster FROM: Tom Cooper SUBJECT: Parking Requirements for Site DATE: March 9, 1998 This proposal is to consider the parking requirements for the entire site bounded by US -1, Dorm Avenue and SW 73rd Street, South Miami, Florida, with the exception of the Einstein Brother's Bagel Site. The site includes three existing building groups: • The contributive buildings with SAMYS, Frame Art, Alice's Day Off, and Robin's Development. • The restaurants with Your Father's Moustache and Deli Lane. • The building with Splash When introducing a new occupancy use to the site, the entire site is recalculated first with Table No. 1 below. Table No. 1 Based on Table No. 1 the site would need 152 parking spaces. The Hometown Overlay Ordinance provides incentives to property owners to build two to four story buildings with mixed -uses in the Specialty Residential/ Retail District. The Land Development Code also realized that each use group occupies the site at a different time of day and therefore the different uses can share many of the same parking. spaces. Table No. 2 adjusts the parking requirements based on these considerations. in affiliation with DOVER, KOHL & PARTNERS 5879 Sunset Drive, Suite 1 • South Miami, FL 33143 • Tel: (305) 666 -0185 • Fax: (305) 666 -0360 • #AA0002980 Mr. Harvey Amster Parking requirements - March 9, 1998 Page two T9161a Nn_ 7 USE MIXED- WK.

Mr. Morton suggested that a "discharge point" be created at the southeast corner of the site where spaces 37 and 38 are shown, in order to avoid what he described as a "bottleneck ". d. The representatives and staff both agreed that that particular point had been addressed, and staff noted that with the City's standards there will be sufficient room for vehicular maneuverability. e. Ms. Thorner commented that parking will remain a problem, particularly during lunchtime, as the Metrorail and its parking lot will continue to be underutilized.' f. Mr. Lefley inquired as to where employees of the establishments park and as to pedestrian activity in this particular area of the City. g. Mr. Dover replied that employees park at the Metrorail garage or other areas and that pedestrian activity in the vicinity of the refurbished Dorn Avenue has been "phenomenal ", with only the southern end of the Avenue needing attention, as there are parking lots on both sides. h. Ms. Chimelis stated that it is "refreshing" to see a building design that represents what the community desires, and she opined that future parking garages may help with the parking crunch in downtown. i. In a discussion of requests for reduction in parking, ` Mr. Basu noted that not all property owners may wish for their tenants to pursue such requests and that the Planning Board had dealt with items where a reduction was not requested. 7. Motion: Mr. Pages moved approval of the application as presented. Mr. Lefley seconded the motion. 8.

I am very excited to see the elements of the Hometown plan incorporated in a positive upgrade of the area. - I believe it will be an asset to downtown South Miami to "re- develop" the street and a complement to the upcoming Shops at Sunset Place. As with that project and the increasing number of people hopefully visiting South Miami, parking is a "challenge" and with adequate planning hopefully can be worked out. I do suggest when the new parking accommodations are in place, there should be signage to direct customers accordingly. Sorry, due to prior plans I'm unable to attend the meeting tonight. Joanna Gaines Barusch 1�1) 1 Studio Architects . 31 March, 1998 to: Bill Mackey Director of Planning & Zoning City of South Miami Mr. Mackey, I have reviewed the proposed buildings and parking diagram for the Amster property between South Dixie Highway and Dorn Avenue. From architectural, planning and historic preservation points of view, this proposal has much merit and I recommend approval. Of particular interest is the positive message this project sends about historic preserwri.tion in the City. This proposal shows how buildings of a scale and character comp-arable to our historic buildings can be added, making the historic scene more complete and improving our streetscapes in the process. It also shows how new buildings and reorganized parking can be "filled in" in the lost space that surrounds some of our historic buildings, allowing profitable growth without requiring the demolition of the older buildings, This opportunity requires that the City grant a sensible parking reduction in light of the mixed -use nature of the development and its proximity to transit. This reduction is advisable and the net benefit to the community will be well worth it.

I have reviewed the proposal and plans and am enthusiastic about what I've seen. This will be a very good infill project in keeping with the goals of the Hometown Plan. This development will create a better appearance of our city from USl and provide a more pedestrian friendly look to Dorn Ave. The project will enhance the tax base, and I hope spawn more improvement of this kind in the downtown area. The Parking Plan is common sense. The mix of land uses should balance the use of the parking supply. This new building on Amster's property will be the first to fully apply the ideas of the Hometown Plan. It has the scale and style envisioned in the plan. I hope more will follow.

Best Company was the first company to report on the financial conditions of insurance companies. Best's Ratings are assigned to virtually every significant insurer operating in the United States. A.M. Best uses both quantitative and qualitative methods to evaluate an insurance company's financial strength, operating performance, and market profile. A.M. Best performs an extensive analysis of each company in such areas as profitability, liquidity, adequacy of reserves and reinsurance, spread of risk, management experience and policyholders' confidence. The possible Best's Ratings are as follows: • A++, A+ (Superior) • A, A- (Excellent) • B++, B+ (Very Good) • B, B- (Fair) • C, C- (Weak) • D (Poor) • E (Under Regulatory Supervision) • F (In Liquidation) A rating of B+ or above indicates the company is "secure ", while a rating of B or below indicates the company is "vulnerable" to adverse changes in economic or underwriting conditions. These ratings provide a comprehensive measure of an insurance company's ability to meet not only current obligations, but also future obligations to policyholders.

City of South Miami fax: 663-6436 Dear lair. Oshikoya: Thank you xor your assistance in reviewing the proposed insurance plans for the City, Most of the H.M.O.'s are standard H.M.O. coverage. United is the former C.A.C, H.M.O. which has had problems in the past so far as funding. I understand that this is the third backer for G.A.C. We try to look out for financial stability in companies to make Sure that the employers will not risk having to accept some financial responsibility in close of bankruptoy Human a's is a broader coverage but the P.P.Q. is overpriced on the family coverage at $747.16 per month. However, they are well funded. In my opinion, the broader coverage for the money is Prudential. Of course, few companies can match their financial status. I dice note on the Mental Nervous of at least one of the plans has a dollar limit on out - pabent. Linder the Health Insurance Portability Accountability Act, there can be no dollar limit. dental Health is covered fop to policy limits. You can limit the number of out- patient visits and in- patient days per calendar year. 7 d 8982 VLZ 9Q8 19dN W02dj page 2 I would verb much like the opportunity to hid on this the next time you go out for a bid. While we have no H.M.O., we have an outstanding P.P.O. and a comprehensive 80/20% plan. Again, thank you for your cooperation and hospitality.

The current Interlocal Agreement expires on April 28, 1998, and must therefore be renewed; the agreement was enacted in April of 1993 with a five -year term. The Interlocal Agreement accomplishes three things. First, it provides for the generation of a stormwater "user fee" collected through the Miami -Dade Water & Sewer Department billing system. Second, from the Stormwater User Fee revenues, the canal systems within the City are "maintained" by the County. Lastly, the excess revenue (that which is not spent on administration and canal maintenance) is returned to the City as the Stormwater Utility Fund. Miami -Dade County has indicated that, if approved, this renewal agreement will be taken before the County Commission in June for approval. Even though the agreement will technically lapse after April 28, Miami -Dade County representatives indicated that the City shall not lose any revenue during the lapse period. The maintenance of the City -owned Broad Canal is being returned to the City in order to improve the waterway's aesthetic quality. Miami -Dade County has also indicated that the maintenance schedule of the Brewer Canal can be increased to improve the aesthetics of this canal as well. Miami -Dade County will also allow our contractor, AquaJet Inc., to conduct certain maintenance activities such as trash/garbage collection in the Brewer Canal. It is therefore recommended that the City Commission approve the attached resolution.

Barbara Howard & Associates, Inc., in association with Rodriguez Piiia & Associates, offers for your review and consideration, a proposal to provide governmental consulting and lobbying services to the City of South Miami. Said services are offered for the purpose of increasing the visibility and viability of the City before local and state political entities and public officials. The goal of our services will be to increase the wealth and welfare of the City's government and its citizenry. The team of Barbara Howard & Associates and Rodriguez Pina & Associates brings to the City a wealth of knowledge and experience in the representation of public and private sector interests, with a strong emphasis on governmental entities such as county and municipal clients. Areas of representation include obtaining multimillion dollar contracts and appropriation requests for an array of issues from funding for capital improvement to public land improvements and land acquisition, etc. Additionally, the team has strong expertise in the areas of economic development, claims bills, corrections industry, transportation, health care, education, building industry, and telecommunications. The combined legislative and political experience of Barbara Howard, principal of Barbara Howard & Associates, and Rick Rodriguez Piiia, principal of Rodriguez Pina & Associates, spans over 20 years. In addition to her years of service in the political arena, Barbara Howard brings to the City her experience as a member of the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors of the Greater Miami Convention and Visitors Bureau, Co -Chair of the Host Committee for the 1998 Sister Cities Conference, member of the Executive Committee of One Community One Goal, and a member of qS Mayor Penelas' Marketing Committee, among others, and as a campaign consultant to political candidates. In addition to his years of service in the legislative arena, Rick Rodriguez Pina brings to the City his experience as Director of Policy and Programs for the former Florida Department of Commerce, Manager of the Beacon Council, and Director of the HMSNWD Chamber of Commerce. The team has represented a variety of clients with diverse legislative needs. This unique combination of Black and Hispanic professionals will provide an invaluable perspective as well as an inherent sense for the intricacies of the legislative process as well as the people involved. A. Lobbying Local Government Barbara Howard would be primarily responsible for lobbying local government, particularly Miami - Dade County and all of its boards and committees. As a co -chair of Mayor Penelas's effort to change the name of Dade County to Miami -Dade County, as well as a member of his Marketing Committee and his mayoral campaign team, Barbara Howard is uniquely positioned to provide effective representation for the City of South Miami with respect to Mayor Penelas and his staff. Further, we have successfully represented numerous clients before the County Commission over the past eight years in the areas of capital development, bond counsel, professional services, transportation, etc. We have also represented the County for water and sewer, construction and transportation issues in public information projects. B. Lobbying State Government Rick Rodriguez Pina will be primarily responsible for lobbying the state legislature; however, Barbara Howard will be lobbying some of the Dade Delegation as well. Rodriguez Piiia & Associates has provided representation which can be measured by the subtle changes to existing statutory language to more tangible results. For example, as in the case of Metropolitan Dade County (now Miami -Dade County), the firm was involved in the creation of the emergency assistance program which secured nearly $25 million for immigrants which will have their social security benefits eliminated by the Federal Govemment. Rodriguez Pina & Associates has also represented the Southern Coalition for Advanced Transportation, which is a consortium of Ford, Toyota, G.M., FP &L, TEC4, Gulf Power and Florida Power Corp. The Coalition wanted to create a state -wide program that would provide a financial incentive for the purchase of electric vehicles. The firm was able to have passed a $900,000 appropriation request through the legislature to begin the program. The team of Barbara Howard & Associates and Rodriguez Piiia & Associates has consistently been successful in our representation of Fellowship House before both the County Commission and the Legislature for yearly funding requirements. Our success in assisting the Urban League of Greater Miami in its association with The Foundation for Florida's Future (Jeb Bush) for the passage of legislation creating the first charter school in Miami -Dade County is one in which the entire community will share in its rewards. A partial list of clients include: (Barbara Howard & Associates.) AK Media, Inc. Architectural Design Consortium, Inc. Architects Intemational, Inc.

The City of North Miami Beach Perrine /Cutler Ridge Council Ronald Book P.A. The City of South Bay Southern Coalition for Advanced Transportation Young Life of Greater Miami Additionally together the firms have provided campaign services to numerous candidates for local, state, congressional and judicial offices, including Congresswoman Carrie Meek; Senators Daryl Jones and William Turner; Representatives Carlos Lacasa and Larcenia Bullard; Miami -Dade Mayor Alex Penelas; deceased City of Miami Mayor Steve Clark; Miami -Dade Commissioners Pedro Reboredo, Natasha Milan, and Jimmy Burke. Further we have long established relationships with all of the members of the Dade Delegation, as well as the Miami -Dade County Commission, its department heads and most of its staff and the congressional delegation, including a long standing membership in Senator's Bob Graham's Young Friends. In terms of political affiliation, Barbara Howard is a registered Democrat and Rick Rodriguez -Pima is a registered Republican. Although Barbara Howard is a Democrat, she is presently working with Jeb Bush, a registered Republican, in his campaign for Governor of the State of Florida. While the firms of Barbara Howard & Associates and Rodriguez -Pima & Associates, both as individual firms or as a team, have represented numerous other clients, we have selected examples which should give a valuable overview of the teams experience, knowledge and expertise, as well as the ability to successfully represent the Town of Bay Harbor Islands. C. Proposed Fee Schedule The team of Barbara Howard & Associates, in association with Rodriguez -Dina proposes to enter into negotiations with representatives of the City of South Miami to determine a fee which would be appropriate for the needs of the City. We anticipate that the fees would include all or some of the following tasks or any other tasks as requested by the City and as seen as normal lobbying services for similar municipalities: 1. Represent the City of South Miami at the 1998 State of Florida Legislative Session, at Miami - Dade County Commission meetings, and at meetings of other governmental bodies as directed by the City on any and all issues affecting the City. 2. Advise and consult with the City on legislative and local issues and strategies and assist the City in implementing said strategies. 3. Under the direction of the Mayor, City Manager or designee, and in cooperation with the City Commission, assist in developing and prioritizing legislative and local issues of significant interest to the City. 4. Maintain liaison with the City's legislative delegation, county mayor and county commissioner. 5. Monitor various legislative and local issues identified in advance by the City and periodically report to the City. 6. Advise City in advance, whenever possible, of legislative and local issues which will impact the City. 7. Prepare legislation and substantive amendments to filed bills, ordinances and resolutions, where appropriate. 8. Attend and report on selected legislative committee meetings and commission meetings and where appropriate, assist in the preparation and deliverance of testimony. 9. Provide lobbying on behalf of the City in connection with appropriations issues and other qr specific legislation identified in advance by the City. 10. Provide coordination with special interest groups. 11. Perform other services which arise in the normal course of representation. 12. Prepare quarterly reports and annual summary prior to the end of each contract year outlining consultant's activities on behalf of the City and the results obtained. Any additional charges would be attendance at special events hosted by and for Mayor Penelas and/or members of the Dade Delegation, members of Congress, and members of Miami -Dade County Commission. Other proposed events would be registration and attendance at Sister Cities annual conference in Miami in July, as well as any League of Cities functions. At the present time, the team holds all necessary licenses and credentials to engage in lobbying activities and is not aware of any possible conflicts of interests in representing the City of South Miami. Should any potential conflicts arise we would advise the Mayor and/or the City Manager immediately. Again, we thank you for the opportunity to submit this proposal and we look forward to discussing further the opportunity to represent you.
