HARRY AND ASSOCIATES, INC.,
FOR ENGINEERING
CONSULTING SERVICES
ASSOCIATED WITH THE US 1
MEDIAN LANDSCAPING
F.D.O.T. PERMIT APPLICATION
The attached resolution seeks approval to allow the City Manager to disburse a sum of $9,975.00
to the engineering firm of M.C. Harry Associates, Inc. for engineering consulting services
associated with the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) permit application for the US 1
median landscaping improvement project.
FDOT's permit requirements are stringent, particularly for major, high- volume corridor such as
US 1. The engineering drawings required must provide a high degree of detail, including three -
dimensional drawings, elevation points, plant material size /spacing, and sight distance
specifications for the entire length of the median (from S.W. 80 th Street Street to S.W. 57' Avenue).
Moreover, the drawings and specifications must be prepared and signed by a licensed professional
engineer. The consulting firm hired for this job must will also communicate frequently and meet
several times with FDOT staff throughout this effort.
In order to provide the required drawings to FDOT, Public Works has sought the services of an
engineering firm. A quote from one of the three "rotating" engineering firms on contract with the
City has been obtained. M.C. Harry and Associates, Inc. has submitted a proposal to perform the
entire scope of work for this project for $9,975.00. This firm has substantial traffic engineering
experience and has provided the City with competent services in the past.
Time is of the essence in this project due to the FDOT lengthy processing time expected once the
application and drawings are provided. For the landscaping to be installed by mid - November, the
design process which precedes the permit must begin immediately.
Funding for this expenditure is available from Local Option Gas Tax Trust Fund cash carryover.
The required funds will be appropriated from the carryover to account no. 112- 1730 -519 -3450,
"Local Option Gas Tax Trust Fund -Contractual Account". The current carryover projection
for this fiscal year is $77, 658.00 .
Approval of this disbursement is recommended.

Erosion of
Tennis Courts
At Dante Fascell Park
The attached resolution seeks approval for Set USA, to receive a purchase order
of $3,180.00 from account number 001-2000-572.4690, "Maintenance Repair —
Tennis Facility", to resurface and reline the three (3) remaining tennis courts at
Dante Fascell Park. Phase I was completed, as Set USA performed an
outstanding job. Phase II will conclude this project and all six,(6) tennis courts a),
Dante Fascell Park will have been brought up to the safety and aesthetic standard
which is our goal.
A budget transfer from account 001-2000-572.5610 ""Baseball"', into account 001-
2000-572.4690, ""Maintenance Repair-Tennis Facility" ' would leave $780.00 in this
account, which would cover general maintenance until the next budget year
commences in October of 1998.
A drainage study and investigation • the Tennis Courts at Dante Fascell Park
was completed by C3TS in January of 1998. C3TS concludes that work done to
the tennis courts at Dante Fascell Park after Hurricane Andrew was performed
unsatisfactorily because the courts were not graded properly in order to shed run
off from the courts. The erosion and loss • clay from the surface of courts has
caused an imbalance of the level of the tennis courts.
There have been numerous footing incidents as well as, accidents due to the
uneven playing surface. Mr. Wayne M. Anderson, Risk Control Specialist, from
the Florida League of Cities, also concluded and recommends resurfacing and
relining of the tennis courts at Dante Fascell Park.

To: Anna Garcia
Recreation Director
Re: Court Resurfacing
From: Randy Boiko
Tennis Pro, Dante Fascell Park
Date: July 25, 1998
The court resurfacing of the three tennis courts at Dante Fascell Park have been
completed. Set USA has completed the work in a timely manner and with good results.
The courts are now level, which has reduced the drying time and allows the players use
of the courts much sooner after it rains. The new lines have improved playability and are
now lying flat which offers better footing and reduces the possibility of any injury due to
the raised condition before this resurfacing.
I recommend that the remaining three courts be done as soon as possible to
improve the quality of the remaining courts as well as eliminating any liabilities that the
City might incur due to the unevenness of the playing surface.

TRANSPORTATION BILL
The attached resolution is sponsored by Mayor Robaina and urges the Federal
Government to include the resurfacing of U.S. Highway 1 in South Florida as
part of the $200.5 billion dollar transportation bill now pending before
Congress.
The portion of U.S. Highway 1 especially in the Florida Keys is in need of
resurfacing. This is the only entrance and exit to the Florida Keys. U.S.
Highway 1 is the only exit from the Florida Keys in case of a hurricane or other
natural disaster.
I recommend approval.

KEY LARGO — The American
Legion Post 333 rejoiced in their
efforts' to find a new home in
November 1996 when they put
down $100,000 for a building and
five lots on U.S. I at mile marker
.94.5.
The celebration was short lived,
.however, as nearly two years later,
after being denied a zoning change
to allow parking next to their new
home by the Monroe County
Planning Commission and the
Development Review Board, the
group still can't occupy their new
Post.
Now, they find themselves going
before the "Court of Last Resort.

To be a member o the American
Legion you must have served your
country in the armed forces during a
time of conflict. In 1976, a group of
war veterans got together, and the
Bicentennial Post 333 of Key '!I-i--go
was chartered. After months of look-
ing for a place to meet they were
finally offered a room at a motel
owned by Russ GuAller Sr. at 99150
Overseas Highway. Gullen charged
the veterans on1v a dollar a month to
rent the facility.
Lzter, after Gullen passed away
the rent began to increase until they
got to where thty are today. nay.',o
$1,000 a month plus a water bill of
$200-S400 a. month.
The vets presently have no lease

"We have been there when the

to make it a better place to live, and
they treat us like second class citi-
zens," Carter said. "We are not ask-
ing for a hand out, we just want a
place to meet, and continue to serve
the community."
Faye Andrews, a founding mother

president, wanted the public to

In researching the change of zon-

with the minutes of a BOCC meet-
ing held in 1986 at which time prop -

was rezoned Suburban Commercial.
This property is located just west
of the proposed American Legion
Home at mile marker 94.5.
At that time the commissioners led
by then Mayor Wilhelmina Harvey
passed a motion "to designate the
Erb Realty property to the SC cate-
gory and also to direct the planners
to treat all similar properties in the
,mmediate area accordingly."
Gene Flinn. former state legislator
from the K--vs, expressed an interest
in the plight of the American
Legion, and indicated he will stand

Come the, first day of October,
the DAV Chapter 122 of
Marathon :: may be forced to

building, located, on the south
end of the airport, is property of
the FAA and was leased to the

sum of $1 per year two decades
ago.
Jack Pettigrew, commander of
the approximately 600 - member

It is my pleasure today to introduce to you, Gene
Flinn, who uniquely postured both being a concerned Keys resident
[for twelve years] and one who maintains a home, as well, in
Southwest Miami. His topic of special interest to Monroe County
is his plan for a federally funded highway project ... and tapping
Washington for totality of the financing needed. These monies
sought to be obtained are earmarked for improvement on U.S.
1. I said Miami. He's a graduate of the University of Miami
where he met his wife, 'Dottie' of 40 years, and of their 3
grown children ... the 2 sons are lawyers with the daughter
married to one practicing in Palm Beach County. Mr. Flinn
has an impressive background, having worked for a time in law
enforcement; been a former prosecutor, and former Legislator.
He served for 10 years on various Metropolitan Boards [Planning,
Water and Sewer, Health, Zoning Appeals, River Clean -up and
Roads] which experience may well be of value to us should this
Community ultimately decide to incorporate.
He had asked me to mention three (3) notable
achievements. One being his saving of Florida Farm Bureau from
bankruptcy through attaching a rider amendment reducing its
Department's reserve requirements for its acquisition by Southern
Farm Bureau. The Second, with no IMF in the offing, his assisting
the domestic Banks, like Barnett, to remain viable through
expansion in Florida for a fair buy out by the Eastern Seaboard
Banks [Chase, Chemical, etc.] through managing the Upstream
Branch Banking Bill, and also his action as the floor manager
for a bill he had hand drafted to bring about tort reform with
respect to the State's Workers' Compensation Law.
May I present our Speaker, Mr. Flinn.

NAME POST ADDRESS
Excerpts from Mr. Flinn's remarks in addressing the Monroe County
Commission on May 13, 1998, in Key Largo.
.. The Federal funding as a reconstituted resurfacintg
project for U. S. 1 to support movement of the heaviest of armored
vehicles from Miami and South to Key West has become now ...
in our estimation ... an absolute necessity.
The 200.5 billion dollar six year transportation
Bill provides requisite monies for possible use of highways
by the military.
The 'Feds' will spend not merely millions, but billions
of dollars, to upgrade the infrastructure of the three new
admittees to NATO. The last time I checked there was not one
Communist adversary left in Europe. ... But our citizenry have
one right at the doorstep to Monroe County.
Further, there is a large naval installation in the
District, and take note that with the wipe out of the Homestead
Air Force Base we no longer have any air umbrella for
surveillances.
This rogue regime ordered the shooting down of the
Brothers, to the Rescue Aircraft with its Russian built MIGS
so they have more than pitchforks at hand to start a fight
with.
True ... we are not Poles, Hungarians, or Citizens
of the Czech Republic. We are Americans ..: and pay those taxes,
so we should be about asking Washington where's in the offing
is our built -up protection!
Our people could be biologically or atomically dead
without help arriving in time on improved roads. How do we
know the Iraqies ... or Iranians aren't supplying Castro with
such weaponry. Remember the Cuban missile crisis of the early
Sixties! Sudam Hussain ordered an attack on an unprepared Israel
without giving warning, even though that democratic tiny nation
was never a combatant in the Gulf War. Who do we rely on ...
that is concerned with our ultimate fate. The CIA? which
failed to sound the alert on the Indian's atomic explosion.
That Branch of Government should drop its middle name!
They pay a pittance for highway construction in the
Hawaiian chain of Islands because of Pearl Harbor. I don't
want to see that happening here to us merely to prove my point.
This Commission together with those cities in Miami -Dade
along with both Counties should prepare and submit applications
for a fair share allocation of federal road monies ... and I
urge all of you to work towards that end, ... and to begin
immediately.

INTER - OFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and Commission DATE: August 4, 1998
FROM: Charles D. Scurr RE: Agenda Item # 110
City Manager Commission Meeting,
August 4, 1998
AUTHORIZATION OF CITY
MANAGER TO ENTER INTO A
CONTRACT WITH S.O.S.
CONSTRUCTION CORP. TO
PROVIDE MUNICIPAL SEWER
REHABILITATION SERVICES
The attached resolution seeks approval to allow the City Manager to enter into an agreement with
S.O.S. Construction Corporation to provide municipal sewer rehabilitation services (cleaning,
and repair if necessary) on a City -wide basis.
The City's storm sewers require periodic cleaning for flood protection. In addition, the storm
sewer system can require further rehabilitation to repair damage from tree roots, etc. It should
also be noted that, per the Federal Clean Water Act (CWA) National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System (NPDES) regulations, the City is responsible for inspecting its storm sewer
system for "illicit connections" such as sanitary sewer laterals (known as "combined sewers "),
hazardous facility waste water discharge pipes, and/or sewage seepage into broken drainage
pipes. Only a contractor capable of robotic inspections can fully satisfy such inspection
requirements. This firm has been awarded a two -year sewer rehabilitation contract with the
Miami -Dade Water and Sewer Department (Contract No. 653).
S.O.S. Construction Corporation has provided the City with exemplary storm sewer cleaning and
investigation services since 1996. Resolution No. 182 -96 -9936 (passed on 11/5/96) authorized
$15,000.00 worth of storm sewer cleaning services. Even though only $7,700.00 has been
"charged against" that resolution, to -date, it is the recommendation of the Finance Department
that a new resolution be approved for two outstanding invoices and all future invoices.
Accordingly, the attached resolution covers the two outstanding invoices, expected expenses for
the remainder of fiscal year 1997/98, as well as services into fiscal year 1998/99.
The total expenditure would not exceed $8, 000. 00, and the disbursement would come from
Account No. 11- 1730 -541 -4640 "Stormwater Trust Fund — Maintenance and Repair of Streets
and Parkways ". Of the $50, 000.00 for this account in the approved fiscal year 1997198 budget,
only $2,900.00 has been spent or posted to -date (this amount includes the outstanding invoices).

Dear Sir /Madam:
We have been notifying you of obstructed storm sewers on 68 Street for some time.
The storm sewer is located on the south side of SW 68 Street, west end of Pinecrest
Automotive(5818 SW 68 Street), and just east of our location. (The one on the north
side is also obstructed, but the water does not rise to cover the sidewalk.)
The drains are so clogged with debris that they are unable to handle rainfall, allowing
the water level to rise covering the sidewalk, making pedestrian transit hazardous. We
have had passersby, as well as customers, slip on the "muck" that builds up on the
sidewalk and street (the sidewalk ends right where the drain is.)
Our insurance company has requested that we notify you in writing regarding this
continuing hazardous condition.
It has been over three months since we first advised you of the situation. We have
received numerous promises of corrective action, but to date it remains unresolved.
Kindly be governed accordingly,
Marta Perez

City Manager Furniture
The attached resolution authorizes expenditure to Ira Shapiro & Co. in the amount of $4,019.00
and Corp. Design by Hertz furniture systems in the amount of $4,412.00 for the purchase of
office furniture and chairs for city hall's common areas.
The city's conference room, lobby and mayor and city commissioners office have been identified
as part of the "common areas" that are frequently visited by constituents and the business
community. These areas are in need of chairs and furniture.
Sixteen traditional chairs have been selected for the lobby area and conference room. The mayor
and commissioners office will have four guest chairs and one high back swivel chair. Corporate
Design by Hertz was found to be the lowest quote among other vendors for similar chairs.
Mahogany furniture in the mayor and city commissioners' office is customized to be functional,
warm, and friendly. The city conference table will be round and will seat eight. Ira Shapiro &
Co., a Dade County bid holder will be building the furniture.
The City will not be purchasing any furniture for any departmental offices within city hall during
this fiscal year.
Funds for this expense will be disbursed from account #001 - 1100 -511 -6420, city commission
/office equipment. This will use all remaining funds in the account.
I recommend approval.

From: Charles D. Scurr' Re: Comm. Mtg. 08/04/98
City Manager Community Connections Resolution
REQUEST:
A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SOUTH MIAMI,
FLORIDA, RELATING TO THE PRESERVATION OF THE ORAL HISTORY OF THE CITY OF
SOUTH MIAMI THROUGH THE "COMMUNITY CONNECTIONS PROGRAM;" AUTHORIZING
THE CITY ADMINISTRATION, ON BEHALF OF THE HISTORIC PRESERVATION BOARD, TO
DISBURSE A SUM NOT TO EXCEED $ 2,500 FOR PAYMENT TO DR. GREGORY BUSH FOR
SERVICES RELATED TO SAID PROGRAM; PROVIDING FOR DISBURSEMENT FROM
ACCOUNT NUMBER 001 - 1100 - 511.9910, WHICH IS ENTITLED "SPECIAL EVENTS -
CONTRIBUTIONS;" AND, PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
The Historic Preservation Board (HPB) is charged with various powers and duties relating to
historic preservation, including:
... [T]o improve and expand the Metro -Dade County Historic Survey with additional
sites, information, oral histories and any other material as may be available...
On September 19, 1997, the City Commission adopted the final budget for fiscal year 1997-
1998, and it included account number 001 - 1100 - 511.9910, entitled "Special Events —
Contributions," which had a total balance of $48,300, of which $5,000 was allocated to the
Historic Preservation Board in order to further the Board's efforts to preserve the historical
resources of the City of South Miami.
On July 27, 1998, Dr. Gregory Bush of the University of Miami presented the HPB with the
Community Connections Program for South Miami, a program designed to "deepen South
Miamian's understanding of their local history" predominantly through the preservation of oral
histories. The presentation included a scope of work and price estimate. Following the
presentation, the HPB voted 5:0 to recommend that the City participate in a modified
Community Connections Program, which would involve a cost not to exceed $2,500 and is more
fully explained by the attachment entitled "Community Connections Program of South Miami."
Community Connections Program — Resolution: August 4, 1998
To date, the HPB has spent $213.26 of the $5,000 budgeted to Board as part of account no. 001-
1100- 511.9910. Therefore, if the expenditure is approved, the balance of the HPB's portion of
account no. 001 - 1100 - 511.9910 would be $2,286.74.
RECOMMENDATION: Approval.

Community Connections Program of South Miami July 29, 1998
Submitted by: Gregory W. Bush, History Department, University of Miami
This project is designed to deepen South Miamian's understanding of
their local history and help promote a sense of place. Ten oral interviews
will be completed and a selection of documents pertaining to the history of
the city will be gathered. While many of the interviews will be taped on
audio equipment, the budget calls for a few to be shot on videotape that can
be edited and aired on local cable television stations. Overall, these
documents will enhance appreciation of the diversity of human experiences
in South Miami. They can be used in local classrooms, public presentations,
television programs, a web site, and, eventually, through one or more
pamphlets. This can become a model to help build community awareness.
Themes to be explored will include the following
1. political culture 2. economic development
3. neighborhood and interethniclinterracial relations
4. evolution of public spaces (parks, schools, roadways)
`lbe Project Director, Dr. Gregory Bush, is Director of the Institute
for Public History at the University of Miami and co- author, with Arva
Moore Parks McCabe, of a widely used documentary reader on South
Florida, Miami: The American Crossroad, In 1997, the book won the
Florida Historical Society's Charlton Tebeau Prize in History.
The chief interviewer wiUbe Graham Andrew, a graduate student in
history at UM, teacher at Miami Country Day School and area resident.
Shannon Curran, a UM graduate student, will do the transcription.
Project Products: 10 Interviews 10 transcriptions
Budget
$1,000 for background research, preparation, and completion of test
interviews. $20 per hour. Each interview to run from 24 hours.
•$800 for transcription of the ten interviews. About 8 hours for each
interview at $10 per hour.
-$200 for materials (audio and video tapes, xerox)
-$250 editing materials for later use in pamphlets. No publication costs are
included.
4250 video camera person for 3 -5 interviews.
Note: No administrative costs are attached to this budget. Thus this
program should be administered directly by the Historic Preservation Board
or by the City of South Miami through procedures to be determined.
Additional funding for further interviews, editing and web site development
will he sought in the next fiscal year.

Dear Susan:
Attached is a copy of my proposal As 1 mentioned on the phone, the cutback in the budget makes this a
difficult project to do well. Without having a pamphlet or website, the material will not be very accessible.
The costs projected by the earlier historian were totaUy unrealistic and did not consider transcription or
other uses of the material. Aa Project Director, I will not be getting any compensation for my time. As I
mention at the bottom of my proposal, I cannot, under these circumstances, take on the administrative
responsibility of running this through the University of Miami- which can be very time consuming. 1 will
oversee quality control and overall choice of subjects, in consultation with you and others, and organization
of the labor involved.
I will be picking my daughter up in Virginia this weekend and do not know whether I will return by
Tuesday evening. I will mention this meeting to Mr. Graham Andrew, who may be able to come in my
place.
Hest wishes

INTER - OFFICE MEMORANDUM
To: Mayor and City Commission f Date: July 31, 1998
Agenda Item # 13 From: Charles D. Scurr Re: Comm. Mtg. 08/04/98
City Manager Plan Amendment Ordinance
REQUEST:
AN ORDINANCE OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SOUTH MIAMI, FLORIDA,
APPROVING AMENDMENT 98 -IER TO THE ADOPTED COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, IN ORDER TO ADOPT THE
INTERIM POLICIES REQUIRED PURSUANT TO THE STIPULATED SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE
CITY OF SOUTH MIAMI AND THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY AFFAIRS; PROVIDING FOR RE-
NUMBERING AND /OR COMBINATION OF PARTS OF THIS ORDINANCE WITH OTHER SECTIONS OR PARTS OF
SECTIONS OF THE SOUTH MIAMI COMPREHENSIVE PLAN; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR
ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
On August 19, 1997, the City Commission of the City of South Miami adopted a package of 16-
EAR Based Amendments to the City's Comprehensive Plan in order to implement
recommendations contained in the 1995 Evaluation and Appraisal Report [EAR]. On October 7,
1997, the City received a letter from the Florida Department of Community Affairs [DCA]
regarding its Statement of Intent and Notice of Intent to find the City's amendment package not
in compliance with State standards.
Pursuant to State law, DCA forwarded the Notice of Intent and Statement of Intent to the
Division of Administrative Hearings of the Florida Department of Management Services for
scheduling of an administrative hearing. The administrative hearing process led the City and
DCA to fashion a proposed stipulated settlement agreement, which included remedial
amendment language, that if adopted and implemented would allow the City's amendments to be
found in compliance. On April 21, 1998, the City Commission adopted Resolution No. 109 -98-
10376, which approved a final stipulated settlement agreement between the City and DCA.
The proposed remedial amendment language identified by the stipulated settlement agreement
must now be adopted as part of the City of South Miami's Comprehensive Plan. Therefore, the
remedial amendment language has been fashioned into a proposed Comprehensive Plan
Amendment known as Remedial Amendment Package 98 -1ER, which must be adopted by
ordinance. The proposed remedial amendment language would affect the Transportation
City Manager's Report: Amendment 98 -IER
Element, Future Land Use Element, and Housing Element. Specifically, additional policies have
been proposed for the Transportation and Housing Elements, which require further technical
analyses, and additional descriptions have been proposed for the Mixed -Use
Commercial/Residential (Four - Story) land use category.
On July 14, 1998, the Planning Board voted 5:0 to recommend approval of the remedial
amendment package.
On July 21, 1998, the City Commission voted 5:0 to recommend approval of the first reading.
RECOMMENDATION: Approval.

INTRODUCTION
On August 19, 1997, the City Commission of the City of South Miami adopted a package of 16-
EAR Based Amendments to the City's Comprehensive Plan in order to implement
recommendations contained in the 1995 Evaluation and Appraisal Report [EAR]. On October 7,
1997, the City received a letter from the Florida Department of Community Affairs [DCA]
regarding its Statement of Intent and Notice of Intent to find the City's amendment package not in
compliance with State standards.
Pursuant to State law, DCA forwarded the Notice of Intent and Statement of Intent to the
Division of Administrative Hearings of the Florida Department of Management Services
for scheduling of an administrative hearing. The administrative hearing process led the
City and DCA to fashion a proposed stipulated settlement agreement, which included
remedial amendment language, that if adopted and implemented would allow the City's
amendments to be found in compliance. On April 21, 1998, the City Commission
adopted Resolution No. 109 -98- 10376, which approved a final stipulated settlement
agreement between the City and DCA.
The proposed remedial amendment language identified by the stipulated settlement
agreement must now be adopted as part of the City of South Miami's Comprehensive
Plan. Therefore, the remedial amendment language has been fashioned into a proposed
Comprehensive Plan Amendment known as Remedial Amendment Package 98 -1ER,
which must be adopted by ordinance. The proposed remedial amendment language
would affect the Transportation Element, Future Land Use Element, and Housing
Element. Specifically, additional policies have been proposed for the Transportation and
Housing Elements, which require further technical analyses, and additional descriptions
have been proposed for the Mixed -Use Commercial/Residential (Four -Story) land use
category.
On July 14, 1 -998, the Planning Board, serving in its capacity as Local Planning Agency,
voted 5:0 to recommend approval of the remedial amendment package.
This Remedial Amendment Package includes the proposed amendment language, which
is underlined, as well as the entire relevant section of the subject Comprehensive Plan
Element, in order to provide the reader adequate context.

I. AMENDMENT TO THE TRANSPORTATION ELEMENT
TRANSPORTATION ELEMENT
GOALS, OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
Goal 1 To maintain an overall transportation system which does not adversely
affect residential neighborhoods but which provides for the circulation
needs of all sectors of the community in a safe, efficient, cost- effective
and aesthetically pleasing manner.
Objective 1.1 Undertake only those improvements that both facilitate traffic flow and
reduce adverse traffic impact on the neighborhoods thereby making
neighborhood streets safer. :1vleasurability shall be no major street
widenings. See Objective 1.5 for non - motorized transportation systems
and 1.3 for convenient and efficient motorized transportation.
Policy 1.1.1 Utilize the following level of service standards:
Principal Arterials "F"
Minor Arterials
Miller Drive Ft'
The above level -of- service notwithstanding, development in the City shall be governed by
additional terms and conditions agreed to by the City of South Miami and the Florida Department
of Community Affairs (DCA). These terms and conditions are agreed to by the City and
incorporated as part of this plan in order to facilitate a finding by the DCA that this
Comprehensive Plan is in compliance with Florida law and the Florida Administrative Code. The
additional terms and conditions agreed to by the City are as follows:
Until December 31,. 1995, the peak hour level -of- service standard for US I shall be 115
percent of the peak hour traffic count in 1989. The City shall use the peak hour traffic
data for 1989 available from the Florida Department of Transportation.
2. After December 31, 1995, the peak hour level -of- service standard shall be 150 percent of
D capacity for US 1.
3. The peak hour level -of- service standard for Bird Road shall be 120 percent of E capacity
4. The City will not issue any new - construction permit which would have the effect of
lowering the level -of- service on Bird Road or US I below the levels specified in "1," 112"
and "3" above unless such permits are issued pursuant to a development of regional
impact (DRI) approval granted prior to the effective date of this plan.
The City of South Miami views these standards as more restrictive than desirable or appropriate
for the City, but accepts them as the most permissive standards that are likely to win approval
from the Florida Department of Community Affairs. The City believes more permissive
standards are in order for the following reasons:
a. There is only a small segment of US 1 in the City of South Miami.
b. The City has virtually no control over most of the development which does now or will in
the future load trips onto US 1.
c. There is a Metrorail station in the heart of the City's only intensive development area, this
Metrorail station puts extraordinary commuter rail transit service at hand. Further,
development of the area around the Metrorail station will further state and local goals for
"in- filling" already urbanized areas and reducing urban sprawl.
d. Bus service with 30 minute headway is available along Bird Road. The availability of
this transit service justifies the above level -of- service designation on Bird Road.
e. In enacting this plan, the City has very substantially reduced the amount of development
that was permitted under the plan effective prior to 1989 and its implementing zoning
ordinance.
The City understands that the Florida Department of Community Affairs believes reasons "a"
through "e" are sufficient justification for the standards set forth in "1" through "4" above, but that
more permissive standards would not be consistent with the City's responsibility to help minimize
traffic congestion.
Policy 1.1.2
Continue to utilize the development plan review process to control
roadway access points and on -site traffic flow.
Objective 1.2
Achieve coordination of the Future Land Use Plan and this element. See
policies for measurability.
Policy 1.2.1
Avoid any major street widenings, in conformance with the Land Use
Plan recommendations that call for protecting and enhancing both the
residential neighborhoods and downtown.
Policy 1.2.2
Continue to review and refine the land development code to assure
adequate on -site parking and traffic flow through site plan reviews.
Objective 1.3
Coordinate City transportation planning with regional agencies to
facilitate convenient and efficient motorized transportation. See policies
for measurability.
Policy 1.3.1
Work with the MPO and other regional transportation planning officials
to secure changes in their plans to widen State and County roadways
within City of South Miami.
Policy 1.3.2
By 1999, undertake facility and program improvements to enhance use
of Metrorail and buses including adequate access to the Metrorail Station
to facilitate convenient and efficient "motorized" transportation.
Policy 1.3.3
Work with the MPO to achieve bus service to major employment
concentrations.
2
Policy 1.3.4 By 1998, establish a shuttle service system to include major commercial
and institutional sites in the Transit - Oriented Development District in
conjunction with the South Miami Metrorail transit station.
Objective 1.4 Protect existing street rights -of -way including access points.
Policy 1.4.1 Although no collector or arterial widenings are recommended by the City
at this time, use development plan reviews and other means to protect
existing rights -of -way, in order to prohibit any further pavement
widening. (97 -1 ER)
Policy 1.4.2 Use the site plan and plat process to control curb cuts on public streets.
Objective 1.5 Continue to refine and develop detailed plans for new sidewalks and
additional bikeways, and begin implementation.
Policy -1.5.1 Continue to refine and update a detailed bikeway plan including access
to the Metrorail Station and adequate on -site storage requirements
through development code site plans requirements.
Objective 1.6 By 1996, establish a transportation concurrency exception area in
conjunction with the approved Metro -Dade County transportation
concurrency management area which includes the Metrorail transit
station and all development located east of the Palmetto Expressway.
The City of South Miami is located in the County management area.
Policy 1.6.1 A proposed development will not be denied a concurrency approval for
transportation facilities provided that the development is otherwise
consistent with adopted comprehensive plan and it meets the following
criteria pursuant to Section 163.3180 of the Florida Statutes:
The proposed development is located within the established
Redevelopment and Infill District [RID]; and.
If the project would result in an increase in peak- period traffic
volume on a Florida Interstate Highway System [FIHS] roadway
that is operating below any adopted LOS standard, which
increase would exceed two (2) percent of the capacity of the
roadway at the adopted standard, the City shall require the
developer and successors to implement and maintain trip
reduction measures to reduce travel by single- occupant vehicles
so that the resultant increase in traffic volume does not exceed
two (2) percent.
Policy 1.6.2 The Citv of South Miami shall include in its concurrency management
program appropriate rules that address this policy and are consistent with
requirements contained in Chapter 163, Part II of Florida Statutes.
Policy 1.6.3 The proposed Redevelopment and Infill District [RID] will be included
in the adopted Future Land Use Map. Boundary changes will require an
amendment to this plan. See Figure 2.10 which indicates the boundaries
of RID and TODD.
Policy 1.6.4 The City of South Miami will continue to update the City's adopted
Comprehensive Plan as specific information becomes available from the
Metropolitan Planning Organization, Metropolitan Dade County
government and State of Florida departments and agencies.
Policy 1.6.5 Regarding the Future Traffic Circulation Map, the City of South Miami
will work to secure changes in the County's recent re- designation of SW
56 Street (Miller Road) and SW 67 Avenue (Ludlum Drive) to prevent
any road widenings, pursuant to Policy 1.2.1, and in order to achieve
consistency with the Metro -Dade County CDMP. Please, note that these
roadways serve only residential uses in the City of South Miami and
should not be designated by the County for higher capacity and lane
expansion within City limits.
Policv 1.6.6 Interim Policy: The City of South Miami shall complete the
following tasks within three months of insert date here. in order to
be found in compliance by the Florida Department of Community
Affairs:
An .analvsis of the existing transportation system. levels -of- service
and service needs. based upon existing design and -operating
capacity. most recently available estimates for average and daily
peak hour vehicle trips existing modal split and vehicle occupancy
rates. existing public transit facilities including ridership by route
peak hour capacities and headways population characteristics
including transportation disadvantaged and the existing
characteristics of trip generators and attractors The City will
coordinate with FDOT and Dade County MPO to complete the
analvsis. Said analysis must show that the system is functioning
and will identify needs which will correct existing deficiencies of
the transportation system.
Policv 1.6.7 Interim Policv: The City of South Miami shall complete the
following tasks within six months of insert date here in order to
be found in compliance by the Florida Department of Community
Affairs:
• An analvsis of the availability of transportation facilities and
services to serve existing
land uses and
• An analysis of the availability of transportation system to
evacuate the coastal population prior to an impending natural
disaster: and.
• An analvsis of the growth trends and travel patterns and
interactions between land use and transportation and the
W,
comparability between the future land use and transportation
elements: and.
• An analvsis of the projected transportation system level -of-
service and system needs based upon the future land use
categories. including the intensities or densities. and the projected
integrated transportation system.
• The analvsis shall consider the projects planned for in FDOT's
work program. the long range transportation plan and traffic
improvement program (TIP) of the Dade County MPO. and the
Metro Dade Transit Authority: and.
• The analvsis shall demonstrate how the City will maintain its
adopted level -of- service standard for roads and transit facilities;
and.
• The analvsis shall address internal consistencv of the plan.
especially its provisions addressing transportation. land use. an d
the availabilitv of facilities: and.
• An analysis which identifies land uses and trans ortation
management programs necessary to promote and support public
transportation systems in designated transportation corridors
II. AMENDMENT TO THE FUTURE LAND USE ELEMENT
FUTURE LAND USE CATEGORIES
This section contains language which explains the intent of the future land use map. Zoning
regulations which permit uses that are specifically permitted by this section and that also permit
uses that are less intensive than those permitted by this section may be deemed to be consistent
with the comprehensive plan. Zoning regulations that are more restrictive than the provisions of
this section may also be consistent with the comprehensive plan. The terms "less intensive" and
"more restrictive" in this section are not defined in this plan.
Planned unit development zoning regulations which permit buildings to be higher than stated in
this plan may be deemed consistent with this plan, provided such regulations do not permit the.
overall floor area on a site to be greater than could occur if the height limits of this plan were
observed.
Nothing in this plan is intended, or has the effect of limiting or modifying the right of any person
to complete any planned development which has been issued a final planned development order
which is in full force and effect and where development has commenced and is continuing in
good faith, provided that all regulations and conditions as imposed by the City are met. Any
legally granted variances to a development code regulation which implements this plan shall be
deemed to be a legally granted variance to this plan and as such shall be deemed to be consistent
with this plan. This variance provision, shall apply to all elements and sections of this plan.
Vested Rights: Nothing contained herein shall be construed as affecting validly existing vested
rights. It shall be the duty and responsibility of the applicant alleging vested rights to
affirmatively demonstrate the legal requisites of vested rights. Vested rights shall require a
demonstration to the Mayor and City Commission of the City of South Miami that the applicant
(1) has relied in good faith, (2) upon some act or omission of the government, and (3) has made
such a substantial change in position or incurred such extensive obligations and expenses to the
applicant's detriment as to create an undue hardship. The mere existence of zoning contrary to
the South Miami Comprehensive Plan shall not be determined to vest rights. Developmental
actions where all required approvals have been received, or orders or permits that preceded the
official adoption of this Comprehensive Plan shall remain in full force and effect but subject to all
applicable zoning laws and regulations of the City. The land development regulations to be
adopted shall provide for specific standards to carry out these concerns.
To reflect the repeated public concerns expressed at the charrettes and public hearings regarding
the preponderance of land use regulations, the land use categories are reduced in number to
reflect the traditional land use designations utilized by the planning profession. Regulation of
specific uses and intensities will be included under provisions in the Land Development Code.
Single - Family Residential (Two -Story)
The single - family land use category is intended to provide for one residential dwelling unit on
each parcel of land. New parcels should have a minimum area of 10,000 square feet. In areas
where existing platting is characterized by parcels larger than 10,000 square feet, zoning
regulations should be consistent with such parcel sizes provided that minimum parcel sizes need
not exceed one acre. In areas where existing platting is characterized by parcels smaller than
10,000 square feet, zoning regulations should be consistent with surrounding parcel sizes. Sites
large enough to be subdivided into parcels of 10,000 square feet or larger could be zoned
accordingly, but only if such zoning would be compatible with surrounding development.
Lot of Record: If the owner of a platted lot in any district does not own a parcel or tract of land
immediately adjacent to such lot. and if the deed or instrument under which such owner acquired
title to such lot was of record prior to the application of any zoning regulations to the premises, or
if such lot were created and first recorded in compliance with the zoning regulations in effect on
the lot at the time of recording, and if such lot does not conform to the requirements of such
regulations as to the width of lots and lot area, the provisions of such lot area and lot width
regulations shall not prevent the owner of such lot from erecting a single - family dwelling or
making other improvements on the lot, provided such improvements conform in all other respects
to the applicable zoning regulations provided that such platted lot is not less than fifty feet in
width and has a frontage of at least fifty feet. The term "platted lot" as used herein shall mean a
full and complete separate parcel designated as a lot, parcel, or tract as part of a subdivision plat
recorded in the public records of Dade County, Florida.
Zoning regulations shall not require any special hearing or approval process for lots that meet the
requirements set forth herein.
Duplex Residential Two Family4ownhouse Residential (Two- Story)
The duplex residential category is intended to provide for two residential dwelling units per
parcel of land. Each dwelling unit should have its own at -grade direct access from the out -of-
doors. Two - family structures should be developed-at densities that do not exceed two dwelling
units per 10,000 square feet.
Townhouse Residential (Two -Story)
The townhouse residential category is intended to limit development to townhouse -type dwelling
units on parcels of land not less than 10,000 square feet in area. Each dwelling unit should have
its own at -grade direct access from the out -of- doors. Townhouse dwelling units should be
developed at densities that do not exceed one dwelling unit per 7,260 square feet of site area.
Individual parcels which meet the minimum site size of 10,000 square feet in area could be
developed for use as single - family residential dwellings units. Zoning regulations which
implement the townhouse category shall prohibit two- family structures: and, one single- family
structures may be permitted to secure a vested right to use any legally created parcels which does
not meet the minimum lot size requirements of this plan and/or the zoning ordinance.
Multiple - Family Residential (Four -Story)
The multiple- family residential land use categoryies -afe is intended to provide for residential
densities of up to a maximum of 24 dwelling units per net acre. Multiple- family residential
development shall be designed in order to create environmentally - sensitive and well- landscaped
settings with pedestrian and multi - modal, transit - oriented amenities. Zoning regulations shall be
implemented to preserve the existing densities of developed properties within established districts.
Designers should be encouraged to produce unique, flexible, multi -level projects, such as mixed -
use developments, including retail and office uses on ground floor levels. Zoning regulations for
the proposed Park View Townhouse area should include an option whereby townhouse
developments could be permitted at densities not to exceed 24 dwelling unit per acre.
Residential Office (Two - Story)
The residential office land use category is intended to provide for the development of very -low-
intensity office structures that are similar in development characteristics to single - family homes.
Development characteristics shall include but not be limited to height, mass, volume, parking and
/3
landscaping. Buildings shall not exceed two stories. In addition, heavy landscaping and
screening shall be provided for parking areas. trash storage and other non - residential site
characteristics.
Commercial Retail and Office (Two -Story)
The commercial retail and office land use category is intended to provide for retail and retail
services, office use and office services that are characteristic of commercial development.

Circulation Element by encouraging the containment of development along existing State and
County high- design roadway facilities. (97 -1 ER)
Mixed -Use Commercial/Residential (Four- Story)
The mixed -use commercial /residential land use category is intended to provide for
different levels of retail uses, office uses, retail and office services, and residential
dwelling units with an emphasis on mixed -use development that is characteristic of
traditional downtowns. Permitted heights. densities and intensities shall be set forth in
the Land Development Code. Regulations regarding the permitted height, density and
intensity in zoning districts for areas designated as mixed -use commercial /residential
shall provide incentives for transit - oriented development and mixed -use development.
Zoning regulations shall reinforce the "no widenings" policy set forth in the Traffic
Circulation Element by encouraging use of Metrorail system. Pursuant to the
recommendation by the Department of Community Affairs to include Floor Area Ratio
(F.A.R.) in the Comprehensive Plan, the City adopts a F.A.R. of 1.6 for this land use
category which is the existing F.A.R. in the Land Development Code for the
corresponding zoning district. In addition. the City adopts a maximum residential density
of 24 units per acre. In order to ensure a mix of uses. the City requires that a minimum of
two of the above uses must be developed within this categorv. For residential projects at
a minimum. the first floor must allow retail For retail protects' at a minimum at least
one floor must contain residential of office For office projects at a minimum at least
one floor must contain residential or retail
Transit - Oriented Development District [TODD] (Flexible Height up to 8 stories)
The Transit - Oriented Development District is intended to provide for the development of office
uses, office services, office- related retail, retail, retail services, and residential uses in multi -story
and mixed -use projects that are characteristic of transit- oriented developments. Permitted heights
and intensities shall be set forth in the Land Development Code, including design standards.
'Zoning regulations shall encourage development within the TODD in conjunction with limiting
new development within the Special Flood Hazard Area. The City shall pursue an incentives
program for redevelopment including flexible building heights and design standards to insure that
responsible, effective and aesthetically - pleasing projects result.
Public - Institutional Uses (Four- Story)
The public and institutional land use category is intended to provide for public schools, municipal
facilities, utilities, and churches, temples, synagogues and similar uses. Areas designated public
and institutional should not be used for other purposes without an amendment to this plan.
Zoning regulations could permit public and institutional uses on sites not so designated by this
plan.
Educational Uses (as a sub - category of the pzthlic institutional uses land use designation)
8
The "educational uses" land use sub - category is intended to provide for public schools uses. Areas
designated as educational should not be used for other purposes without an amendment to this
plan. Zoning regulations could permit public educational uses on sites not so designated by this
plan. Public schools are hereby defined as public institutions of general education offering
kindergarten through 12`h grade education or some substantial portion thereof, and are owned and
operated by the Dade County Public Schools system. Building heights shall not exceed the
average of the maximum permitted heights in the surrounding zoning districts; and. in no case
shall a building exceed four stories in height.
Parks and Open Space
The parks and open space land use category is intended to provide for public parks, park and open
space areas, including those associated with public schools. Sites designated parks and open
space should not be used for other purposes without an amendment to this land use plan. Zoning
regulations could permit park and open space uses on sites not so designated by this plan. Land
exchange may precede amendment to this plan providing that levels -of- service established in the
Recreation and Open Space Element are maintained; this provision is included for the purpose of
providing for land use designation of future park reconfiguration. Zoning regulations should
permit parks- related buildings (e.g., indoor athletic and passive recreation facilities) on land
already designated as Parks and Open Space.

DOCKET NO. 97- 1ER -NOI- 1323- (A)- (I)(I)
STATEMENT OF INTENT TO FIND
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT
NOT IN COMPLIANCE
The Florida Department of Community Affairs hereby issues its Statement of Intent to
find the City of South Miami Comprehensive Plan Amendment 97 -IER, adopted by Ordinance
No. 20 -90 -1641 on August 19, 1997 Not In Compliance. The Department finds that the plan
amendment is not "in compliance," as defined in Section 163.3184(1)(b), Florida Statutes (F.S.),
because it is not consistent with Chapter 163, Part II, F.S., the State Comprehensive Plan, the
South Florida Comprehensive Regional Policy Plan, and Chapter 91-5, Florida Administrative
Code (F.A.C.), for the following reasons:
I. AMENDMENT TO THE TRANSPORTATION ELEMENT
A. Inconsistent provisions. The inconsistent provisions of the plan amendment under
this subject heading are as follows:
1) The amendment is inconsistent because the amendment did not include an adequate
analysis of the projected intermodal deficiencies and needs such as terminals, connections, high
occupancy vehicle lanes, park- and -ride lots and other facilities. The City's reply was not
responsive to the ORC objection or the rule requirement. Describing the City's proposed shuttle
•L

A.
system is not an analysis of projected intermodal deficiencies and needs. Without providing an
analysis of the intermodal deficiencies, the City cannot adequately address the needs component
of the analysis. [Section 163.3177(6)0)5., F.S.; Rule 9J- 5.005(2)(a); Rule 9J- 5.019(3)(e),
F.A.C.]
B. Recommended remedial actions. These inconsistencies may be remedied by
taking the following actions:
1. The assessment must look at areas related to ridership and modal split in order to
determine if there are any deficiencies with the intermodal facilities. This information should be
available through the Metro -Dade County Transit Authority or Dade County. The City must
conduct an analysis of intermodal deficiencies and a needs assessment and consider appropriate
policies, programs, and activities to correct identified problems.
2) The amendment is inconsistent because the City did not provide an adequate
analysis of the projected transportation system levels of service and system needs based upon the
land use categories, including their densities or intensities of use as shown on the Future Land
Use Map (FLUM), and the projected integrated transportation system. The analysis did not
demonstrate integration and coordination among the various modes of transportation and did not
address the need for new facilities and expansions of alternative transportation modes to provide
a safe and efficient transportation network and enhance mobility. [Chapter 163.3177(6)0)8.,
F.S.; Rule 9J- 5.005(2)(a) and (5)(a); and Rule 9J- 5.019(3)(f), F.A.C.].
B. Recommended remedial actions. This inconsistency may be remedied by taking
the following actions:
N
2. The City should analyze the FLUM densities, intensities and mixed use patterns
against the thresholds required to support transit. The City should compare the existing FLUM
designations within the transit corridor to a professionally accepted source which has analyzed
densities and intensities which support transit. One such document is the Dade County MPO
document "Transit/Land Use Relationship Report." Where incompatible uses occur, an analysis
should be conducted that assesses FLUM alternatives that.would be compatible. This analysis
should be completed prior to the Dade County MPO Long Range Transportation Plan Model
Update so that alternative land uses can be submitted to the MPO. The City should also create a
policy whereby it commits to completing this analysis upon completion of the Dade County
Metropolitan Planning Organization (DCMPO) Long Range Transportation Plan Model update.
The City should coordinate with Dade County regarding the submittal of land use data to the
MPO. The Department notes that the City has added Transportation Element Policy 1.6.4 which
states that the City will continue to update the City's Plan as specific information becomes
available from the MPO, Dade County, and the State of Florida. While the Department believes
that the general intent of this .policy is moving in the right direction, the language is vague and
should be revised whereby the City will submit this analysis by a date certain subsequent to the
MPO update.
3) The amendment is inconsistent because the amendment does not adequately
analyze the compatibility of the transportation system needs with the Florida Department of
Transportation (FDOT) Adopted Work Program, long range transportation plan and plans of the
Dade County MPO, and the compatibility with the policies and guidelines of these plans. The
response is inadequate because it does not demonstrate whether the City's system needs are
N
consistent with the FDOT Adopted Work Program and the long range transportation plan and
plans of the Dade County MPO. [Section 163.3177(6)0)5.; Rule 9J- 5.005(2)(a); and Rule 9J-
5.019(3)(8), F.A.C.]
B. Recommended remedial actions. These inconsistencies may be remedied by
taking the following actions:
3. Provide an analysis which demonstrates whether the City's system needs are
consistent with the FDOT Adopted Work Program and the long range transportation plan and
plans of the MVO. Furthermore, the Dade County MPO is now in the process of updating their
five -year work plan, and the Department is working with the MPO, FDOT- District 6, and Dade
County on ensuring coordinated transportation planning as part of the development of the County
Transportation Element. The Department recommends that the City participate in this process.
4) The amendment is inconsistent because the analysis does not explicitly address
and document internal consistency of the plan, especially its provisions addressing
transportation, land use, and availability of facilities and services. While the City's response
speaks in general terms of how the transportation element is consistent with other growth
management goals of the comprehensive plan, it does not explicitly explain how the policies and
programs of the transportation element support and further objectives and policies of other
comprehensive plan components. [Section 163.3177(6)0)5, F.S.; Rule 9J- 5.005(2)(a); and
Rule 9J- 5.019(3)(i), F.A.C.]
B. Recommended remedial actions. These inconsistencies may be remedied by
taking the following actions:
4. The City's analysis must explicitly explain how the policies and programs of the
N
transportation element support and further objectives and policies of other comprehensive plan
components. The City's analysis should examine internal consistency such as, but not limited
to, whether the FLUM supports the transportation system, whether particular capital
improvements are needed, and whether the transportation system supports infill development.
5) The amendment is inconsistent because the City did not adequately analyze. the
growth trends and travel patterns and interactions between.land uses and transportation, and the
compatibility between the future land use and transportation element. The City has provided a
general description of how growth and the transportation system interact based upon general
observations. This overview, however, does not satisfy the analysis requirements of the rule, nor
would it support specific recommendations for policies and programs to ensure greater
compatibility between the transportation and future -land use elements. [Section
163.3177(6)0)5., F.S.; Rule 9J- 5.005(2)(a); and Rule 9J- 5.019(3)(d), F.A.C.]
B) Recommended remedial actions These inconsistencies may be remedied by
taking the following actions:
5. As stated in Item No. 2, the City should analyze the FLUM densities, intensities
and mixed use patterns against the thresholds required to support transit. The City should
compare the existing FLUM designations within the transit corridor to a professionally accepted
source which has analyzed densities and intensities which support transit. This analysis should be
completed prior to the Dade County MPO Long Range Transportation Plan Model Update so
that alternative land uses can be submitted to the MPO. Upon completion of the Dade County
MPO Long Range Transportation Plan Model update, the City must analyze the compatibility
•L
E
between the future land use and transportation element. The City should utilize the Dade County
MPO update to project future roadway capacities and mass transit ridership and utilize the PIan
to project where growth will occur. The City could then determine the effects of growth on the
transportation system and vice versa. As recommended in Item No. 2, the City should add a
policy whereby the City will submit this analysis by a date certain subsequent to the MPO
update.
6) The amendment is inconsistent because the City did not adequately analyze how
the City will maintain its adopted level of service standard for roads and transit facilities. The
analysis does not show projected traffic and transit levels over the next five years and identify
where LOS standards are expected to be exceeded. [Section 163.3177(6)0)5., F.S.; Rule 9J-
5.005(2)(a) and Rule 91- 5.019(3)(h), F.A.C.] -
B. Recommended remedial actions. These inconsistencies may be remedied by
taking the following actions:
6. Provide an analysis which shows projected traffic and transit levels over the next
five years and identify where LOS standards are expected to be exceeded. The analysis should
also include other methods of maintaining LOS standards such as, but not limited to, Capital
Improvement Element improvements to prevent LOS failures, changes in land use, or making the
transportation system more efficient.
7) The amendment is inconsistent because the following objective and policies were
not included in the plan:
Rule 9J- 5.019(4)(b)4. Address the provision of efficient public transit services based on
existirig and proposed generators /attractors, safe and convenient
public transit terminals, land uses, and accommodation of the
special needs of the transportation disadvantaged;
G
Rule 9J -5.G 19(4)(c)3. establish parking strategies to promote transportation
goals /objectives;
Rule 9J- 5.019(4)(c)7. establish TSM strategies to improve system efficiency and enhance
safety;
Rule 9J -5.019 (4)(c)9. establish land use and site and building design guidelines for
development in exclusive public transit corridors to assure the
accessibility of new development to public transit;
Rule 9J- 5.019(4)(c)10. establish numerical indicators. against which the achievement of
mobility goals of the community can be measured, such as modal
split, annual transit trips per capita, automobile occupancy rates;
Rule 9J- 5.019(4)(c) 11. establishment of strategies, agreements and other mechanisms with
applicable local governments and regional and state agencies that
demonstrate the areawide coordination necessary to implement the
transportation, land use, parking, and other provisions of the
transportation element.
B. Recommended remedial actions These inconsistencies may be remedied by
taking the following actions:
7. Include the objective and policies identified above. The objective and policies
must be based on appropriate analyses as discussed in preceding sections of the Statement of
Intent.
8) The amendment is inconsistent because Transportation Element Objective 1.2,
which seeks to achieve coordination of the Future Land Use Plan and the Transportation
Element, does not insure that future land use, population densities, housing and employment
Patterns are compatible with the area's transportation modes and services. [Section
163.3177(6)0)5., F.S.; Rule 9J- 5.005(5)(a); and Rule 9J- 5.019(4)(b)2., F.A.C.]
B. Recommended remedial actions. These inconsistencies may be remedied by
taking the following actions:

.y
8. The City should analyze the FLUM densities, intensities and mixed use patterns
against the thresholds required to support transit. Where incompatible uses occur, an analysis
should be conducted that assesses FLUM alternatives that would be compatible. The City should
compare the existing FLUM designations within the transit corridor to a professionally accepted
source which has analyzed densities and intensities which support transit. This analysis should be
completed prior to the Dade County MPO Long Range Transportation Plan Model Update so
that alternative land uses can be submitted to the MPO. As recommended in Item No. 2, the City
should add a policy whereby the City will revise this objective and add policies, if necessary, by
a date certain subsequent to the Dade County MPO update. The objectives and policies must be
based on appropriate analyses as discussed in preceding sections of the Statement of Intent.
9) The amendment is inconsistent because Transportation Element Policy 1.1.1,
which establishes the roadway level of service standard, did not include specific reference to the
LOSS for transit facilities. Furtherrnore, the City did not adopt the LOSS established by FDOT
for facilities on the FIHS. [Section 163.3177(6)(j)l., F.S., and Rule 9J- 5.019(4)(c)l., F.A.C.]
B. Recommended remedial actions. These inconsistencies may be remedied by
taking the following actions:
9. Revise the amendment to include the LOSS for mass transit and adopt FDOT's
LOS standard for facilities on the FIHS in the City.
10) The amendment is inconsistent because the City adopted a Transportation
Concurrency Exception Area (TCE A) but did not adequately address the provision to establish
policies which specify programs to address transportation needs of the TCEA. [Section
S
9
163.3180(5)(b) and (c), F.S., and Rule 9J- 5.0055(6)(c), F.A.C.]
B. Recommended remedial actions. These inconsistencies may be remedied by
taking the following actions:
10. The Department believes that if the City adds the objective and policies as
identified in Item No. 7 as well as establishing objectives and policies based upon the additional
analysis requirements as discussed in preceding sections ofthe Statement cf Int--nt, the
transportation needs of the TCEA will be met.
11) The amendment is inconsistent because the Future Transportation Map did not
include parking facilities that are required to achieve mobility goals; TCEA; and intermodal
terminals and access to such facilities. [Section 163.3177(6)0)l., 2., and 3., F.S.; Rule 9J-
5.005(5)(b); and Rule 9J- 5.019(5)(a) l.e.; (5)(a)4;'and (5)(a)9., F.A.C.]
B. Recommended remedial actions These inconsistencies may be remedied by
taking the following actions:
11. Include these items on the Future Transportation Map.
II. AMENDMENT TO THE FUTURE LAND USE ELEMENT
A. Inconsistent orovisfons. The inconsistent provisions of the plan amendment under
this subject heading are as follows:
1) The amendment is inconsistent because it includes a new mixed use FLUM
category, Mixed Use Commercial/Residential (Four Story), but does not include a minimum and
maximum range percentage of land use distribution among the mix of uses, and the density for
residential uses. While the City has established a Floor Area Ratio (F.A.R.) appropriate for non-
-.L
9
residential uses, a F.A.R. cannot adequately measure residential densities because dwelling units
vary in size which makes it difficult to determine the number of units that could be allowed.
[Section 163.3177(6)(a), F.S., and Rule 9J- 5.006(1)(c) and (4)(c), F.A.C.]
B. Recommended remedial actions. These inconsistencies may be remedied by
taking the following actions:
1. The Mixed Use Commercial/Residential (Four Story) category must be revised to
include the minimum and maximum range percentage of land use distribution among the mix of
uses and include a residential density based on dwelling units per acre.
III. FUTURE LAND USE MAP AMENDMENTS
A. Inconsistent provisions. The inconsistent provisions of the plan amendment under
this subject heading are as follows: -=_
1. The City has adopted 4 FLUM amendments which involve converting, land uses to the
Mixed Use Commercial/Residential (4 Story) category. As the Department has determined that
the Mixed Use Commercial/Residential (4 Story) category is not in compliance, these 4 FLUM
amendments are also not in compliance because of the problems associated with the land use
category. Listed below are the subject amendments. [Section 163.3177(6)(a), F.S.; Rule 9J-
5.005(5)(a); and Rule 9J- 5.006(1)(c) and (4)(c), F.A.C.]

in the construction of affordable housing, do not establish the target by which the City will
- w
11
reduce the deficit shown by the Shimberg Study. [Section 163.3177(6)(f) I.d., F.S., and Rule 9J-
5.010(3)(b)3., F.A.C.]

1
The applicant, China Grill Cafe Sunset, Inc., is requesting a special use permit to operate a
general restaurant to be called China Grill Cafe, in tenant space C18 of the Shops at Sunset
Place. The proposed area of the restaurant is 6,551 square feet, and it would provide seating for
approximately 300 patrons, 210 indoor seats and 90 outdoor seats. The applicant proposes a full -
service bar and a menu featuring "world cuisine," which is more fully explained in the attached
letter of intent. The letter of intent also explains the unique robot waiters and conveyor belt
countertops planned for the restaurant. The proposed hours of operation are Monday through
Sunday 11:30 a.m. — 2 a.m. The proposed floor plan is attached.
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.
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 39 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.
China Grill Cafe Resolution: August 4, 1998
(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 40 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.
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)].
On June 30, 1998, the Planning Board voted 6:0 to recommend approval of the subject
application.

China Grill Cafe And Zen SumTM
The Shops at Sunset Place South Miami, Florida
(Proposed)
The company that has brought South Florida, China Grill"I and its newest
siblings, Tuscan Steak and Red Square, desires to introduce its latest
concept, China Grill Cafe And Zen SumTri to the South Miami area. This
new Cafe presently is planned to open at the Las Olas Riverfront project in
Fort Lauderdale, at the Aventura Mall expansion, at CityPlace in West Palm
Beach and at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The new China Grill Cafe will feature China Grill's signature " Vorld Cuisine"
in a cafe concept which incorporates new menu items at prices significantly
below those charged at Miami Beach's China Grill. Although the cuisine will
be similar, in that it will embody ingredients from around the world, the new
menu will push the envelope of traditional cafe offerings. The focus will
continue to be on preparing every dish on grills or in woks with saucing strictly
for flavor. The Cafe will add, however, satays, dumplings, grilled pizzas, hot
pots, noodles, rotisserie and other menu items suitable for the diner interested
in getting a quick bite to eat in a casual, yet striking environment. While many
of the food portions are generous, artfully and dramatically presented, and
meant to be shared family style as is done in the other China Grill restaurants,
customers at the China Grill Cafe will have the flexibility of ordering smaller
portions consistent with the cafe -type setting which will be able to
accommodate single customers or small groups. A full, sit -down bar and
cocktail lounge serving liquor and other China Grill signature drinks during all
hours of operations is contemplated.
05/06/98 Pagel of 5
From a visual perspective, the Cafe is being designed to extend China Grill's
concept of culinary theatre. These cafes will incorporate many new visual and
dining features guaranteed to be the tall: of the town. Each Cafe takes the
open, exhibition kitchen for which China Grill is world famous and adds video
and robotic elements designed to enhance the dining experience. Throughout
the restaurant, there will be video cameras capturing the essence of the China
Grill experience and transmitting these vignettes live throughout the restaurant.
There will be a huge video wall capable of showing seven different images or
feeds, as well as video monitors strategically- placed in other areas of the
restaurant, including the bathroom facilities, so that every diner gets the
imagery of the China Grill experience.
In addition to the video and audio components of the new Cafe, China Grill
intends to take cafe dining to new culinary levels by introducing in addition to
its regular waiter service, satay grill and dim sum exhibition cooking areas
surrounded by conveyor belts and robots capable of delivering the just - cooked
food items directly to the customer, on small plates with translucent covers.
No more waiting for your server to deliver your food. Now, if you see it and
want it, you have the option of reaching out and grabbing your food selection.
And, for those not seated by the exhibition cooking areas, uniquely designed
robotic carts will circulate throughout the restaurant with these food items and
drinks for the customer's immediate gratification. In the spirit of China Grill,
these Zen -like robots will interact with diners, while simultaneously
transmitting the video and sound images to the video monitors placed
throughout the restaurant.
While others have tried to adopt the style, China Grill still holds its position as
the original, thanks to its mission to keep Vorld Cuisine more fission than
fusion, more constant and bold inventiveness than just a simple blending of
05/06/98
Page 2 of 5
R
cuisines. This inventiveness is being extended to China Grill's new cafe
concept in an effort to make the China Grill experience more accessible for
the South Miami public and more convenient for those diners interested in
eating while experiencing the shopping and entertainment of The Shops at
Sunset Place.
Attached is a synopsis of certain operational issues unique to this project.

From: Charles D. Scurr Re: Comm. Mtg. 08/06/98
City Manager Convenience Restaurant
REQUEST:
A RESOLUTION 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,
CONVENIENCE," AS SPECIFIED IN § 20- 3.4(B)(4)(a) OF THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE,
REGARDING PROPERTY LOCATED AT 5796 BIRD ROAD, SOUTH MIAMI, FLORIDA 33155.
C ORC6101 ►"D
The applicant, Ho Pan Yao, Inc., is requesting a special use permit in order to operate a Chinese
takeout restaurant, to be named at a later date, on the property located at 5796 Bird Road.
According to the City of South Miami's occupational license records, the subject location
operated as a Chinese takeout restaurant, known as the Golden Corner, from 1986 -1997. Thus,
the applicant wishes to renew a use, which has occupied the subject location for a number of
years.
The restaurant would occupy 675 square feet, as evidenced by the attached floor plan, and would
provide takeout and delivery service with no interior seating. The proposed hours of operation
are 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily.
The definition of Convenience Restaurant, special use conditions for all uses, and specific
conditions for Convenience Restaurant are included below:
DEFINITION [from Section 20 -2.3; found on page 16 of the Land Development Code]
Restaurant, convenience. 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 is that of a fast-food or drive -in restaurant offering quick food
service, where orders are generally not taken at the customer's table, where food is generally
City Manager's Report: Bird Road Convenience Restaurant
served in disposable wrapping or containers, and where food and beverages may be served
directly to the customer in a motor vehicle. This use may include delivery service with City
Commission approval.
The proposed use is located in the "GR" General Retail zoning district. A "restaurant,
convenience" is permitted, pursuant to special use approval, as indicated under Section 20 -3.3 of
the Land Development Code. 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
(a) RESTAURANT, CONVENIENCE
i. No vehicular ingress nor egress shall be permitted along streets and rights -of -way
bordering residential zoning districts in the City of South Miami. Public streets,
rights -of -way, sidewalks, and required setbacks may not be used for patio or
street -side services of any kind.
ii. The city commission shall review and recommend approval, disapproval or
modification of all site plans and project specifications, including, but not limited
to, traffic circulation, landscaping, lot size, access and facility arrangement for this
Special Use Permit.
ANALYSIS:
The applicant proposes to renew a use which has been occurring at the subject location for at
least the last decade. Therefore, staff believes that the requested special use complies with the
City Manager's Report: Bird Road Convenience Restaurant 2
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 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)].
On July 14, 1998, the Planning Board voted 5:0 to recommend approval of the request with the
condition that the two dumpsters on the site be enclosed.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
This application does not conflict with the Comprehensive Plan.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval with the condition that the dumpsters
on the site be enclosed per Section 20- 3.6(R) of the Land Development Code.

III. Public Hearings
A. ITEM: PB -98 -014
Applicant: Ho Pan Yao, Inc.
Request: A Special Use Permit for a "Restaurant, Convenience" in the hometown district as
specified in § 20- 3.4(13)(4)(a) of the Land Development Code.
Location: 5796 Bird Road
South Miami, Florida 33155
1. Mr. Morton read the request into the record.
2. Staff presented the item to the Board, reviewing the inter - office memorandum regarding the
Special Use Permit for Ho Pan Yao, Inc.
PB Min 07 -14 -98 1
3. Staff recommended approval of permit so long as the applicant complied with certain
requirements, such as improvements in the parking lot, enclosing of two dumpsters, and painting
and repairing of a CBS wall.
4. Staff described the site as a delivery and carryout restaurant of 675 square feet with no sit -
down eating area and pointed out the site's lengthy history as a restaurant.
5. Staff also noted that the request complies with all other provisions of the Land Development
Code and Comprehensive Plan.
6. Mr. Pages requested that the applicant once again hear the provisions under which he would be
granted his license for the sake of clarity.
7. The applicant had no problem with the staff recommendations at this point, but soon expressed
concern about the breadth of the improvements necessary to meet the staff's provisions.
8. Mr. Morton asked who would determine compliance of the provisions.
9. Mr. Oravec responded that the Planning and Zoning staff would determine compliance.
10. Ms. Chimelis stressed that it was important to make a distinction between the responsibilities
of the owner of the strip mall and those of the lessee /applicant.
11. Ms. Chimelis said that the provisions for improvement should be restricted to those that the
applicant is directly responsible for and capable of accomplishing.
12. Public hearing was opened.
13. Mr. de la Garza from the audience said he knew the previous owners of the establishment and
commended the applicant on his venture to take over the restaurant.
14. Mr. Pages asked if anyone else wished to speak; no one did, so the public hearing was closed.
15. The meeting then opened for discussion.
16. Mr. Basu said that the wall is a code violation, but that it should be the duty of the owner to
repair.
17. Staff re- stated that the dumpsters needed to be enclosed, but that the improvements on the
parking lot were only posed for consideration, as a delivery restaurant would create an increase
in the flow of traffic.
18. Motion: Mr. Basu moved approval of the application requested with the condition that the
PB Min 07 -14 -98 2
applicant enclose the dumpster, and he recommended that staff address the owner of the strip
mall concerning the parking lot and the wall. Mr. Morton seconded.
19. Ms. Chimelis remarked on the need for a "No Parking" sign on the side of the establishment
for safety.
20. Staff agreed that they would be in communication with public works and parking to ensure
safe conditions.
21. Vote: Approved: 5 Opposed: 0
(B) ITEM: PB -98 -015
Applicant: Local Planning Agency
Request: A public hearing regarding the amendment of the Comprehensive Plan to include
interim policies as required by the Stipulated Settlement Agreement between the
City of South Miami and the Florida Department of Community Affairs.
1. Ms. Chimelis read the request into the record.
2. Staff presented the item to the Board.
3. Mr. Pages called a 5- minute recess because of break of quorum.
4. The meeting resumed.
5. Staff continued the presentation, which included the issues of mixed -use land, transportation,
and affordable housing as items that still needed to be fulfilled for the state to approve the
proposal.
6. Mr. Basu pointed out that what the state is requiring is additional language and analyses,
nothing substantial.
7. Staff added that the requirement for a specific number of affordable housing units to be built
was a difficult task considering the area is already built out.
8. Ms. Chimelis affirmed that it would be difficult to reach compliance with a staff of one.
9. Staff said that there was money budgeted for consultants to help in this process.
10. Mr. Basu reminded the board that the requirements for the state would in no way change the
City or improve it, they are just numbers the state needs to pass approval.
11. Public hearing was opened.

INTER - OFFICE MEMORANDUM
To: Mayor and City Commission
Charles Scurr, City Manager
From: Earl G. Gallop
Date: July 31, 1998 /6
Re: Resolution relating to human rights
Proposed resolution. The proposed resolution endorses a proposed human rights
amendment to the Miami -Dade County Code. The county ordinance would amend existing
prohibitions against discrimination based on race, color, religion, ancestry, national origin,
sex, pregnancy, age, disability and marital or familial status, to include sexual orientation as
a protected class. The prohibition concerns discrimination in the areas of employment,
family leave, public accommodations, credit and financing practices, and housing.
The proposed county amendment was withdrawn from consideration. The objective
of the proposed resolution is to encourage the county commission agenda to place the matter
on the agenda for further deliberation. A copy of the proposed amendment to the county
code is attached.
The resolution is sponsored by Commissioner Mary Scott Russell.

Fraternal Org. Use in the
PI zoning district
AN ORDINANCE OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SOUTH MIAMI,
FLORIDA, RELATING TO AN AMENDMENT OF SECTION 20 -3.3 (D) OF THE LAND
DEVELOPMENT CODE IN ORDER TO PERMIT THE "FRATERNAL ORGANIZATION OR PRIVATE
CLUB" USE AS A SPECIAL USE IN THE "PI" PUBLIC /INSTITUTIONAL ZONING DISTRICT;
PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT; AND,
PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS
On April 27, 1998, Manuel A Cuadrado, the Exalted Ruler of the South Miami /Coral Gables Elks
Lodge, requested that the City of South Miami consider permitting "catering services" in the "PI"
Public /Institutional zoning district in order to allow the Lodge located at 6304 SW 78`" Street to
operate a catering service on the premises. Mr. Cuadrado explained that the catering services were
formerly operated as part of the Coral Gables Lodge, which had been sold due to the merger of the
Coral Gables and South Miami Lodges.' Subsequently, the South Miami/Coral Gables Elks Lodge
desired to bring the catering services to its location in South Miami. Through later discussions
between the Elks and the City, it was also discovered that the proposed addition of catering services
was to be coordinated with a major remodeling of the South Miami Lodge.
Staff's initial analysis of the request revealed that it could not be permitted under the current
regulations of the Land Development Code (LDC) because the Lodge's principal use, "fraternal
organization or private club," is not a permitted use within the PI district, making the Lodge a legal
nonconforming use. Pursuant to Section 20 -4.8 of the LDC, a legal nonconforming use cannot
increase its nonconformity through additions, substantial renovations, or expansion of use.'
1 See attached letter addressed to Mayor and City Commission from Mr. Cuadrado, dated April 27, 1998
2 See attached excerpts of Section 20 -4.8 of the LDC.
ls` Reading August 4, 1998: Fraternal Organization Use Ordinance
Prior to 1989, the Lodge was zoned "RM 24" Medium Density Multi- Family Residential District
and permitted as a special use according to the zoning ordinance in effect at the time. On October
25, 1989, however, the City of South Miami adopted a new zoning code, entitled "The City of South
Miami Land Development Code," which contained new zoning regulations, including a new zoning
map, based on the newly adopted Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan's Existing Land
Use Map and Future Land Use Map depicted the Lodge's property as Public /Institutional.;
Surprisingly, although the new LDC listed the "fraternal organization or private club" use under the
"Public and Institutional Uses" Category, the LDC did not list the use as a permitted use in the PI
zoning district.'
In order to enable the Elks Lodge to substantially renovate or request an amendment to the LDC to
permit catering services, the Elks Lodge must first be a permitted use within its zoning district.
There are two principal methods by which the Elks Lodge can become a permitted use: (1) amend
the LDC in order to permit the "Fraternal Organization or Private Club" use in the PI zoning district
or (2) amend the LDC in order to change the Lodge's zoning district to a district which permits the
"Fraternal Organization or Private Club" use.
Section 20 -3.1 (13)(19) of the LDC states that the PI zoning district's purpose "is to provide for
schools, governmental facilities, utilities and churches and similar uses..." The South Miami /Coral
Gables Elks Lodge through its involvement with such organizations and programs as the Senior
Citizens Home, the After School House, and Habitat For Humanity conducts many of the same
services and activities as the uses for which the PI zoning district is intended. Furthermore, the
Comprehensive Plan's depiction of the subject property's existing and future land uses as
Public /Institutional, as well as the LDC's categorization of the "fraternal organization or private
club" use as one of the "Public and Institutional Uses," supports the premise that the subject use
should, be permitted in the PI zoning district.
Amending the permitted uses of the PI zoning district, however, does have potential drawbacks.
Changing the permitted uses for the PI zoning district would not only affect the Lodge's property,
but all PI zoning districts citywide.' Although the properties within the City's PI districts are
currently occupied by schools, Metrorail, utilities, YMCA, the Girl Scout House, and the Elks Lodge
and are unlikely to change, it is important to consider long term implications of zoning changes.
Would the presence of fraternal organizations negatively impact PI districts? There may be fraternal
organizations which are very dissimilar to the other uses permitted in the PI zoning district, or there
may be PI districts where a fraternal organization or private club would not be compatible with the
existing surrounding uses.
Amending the Land Development Code in order to change the subject property's zoning district to
a district which would permit the "fraternal organization or private club" use would also allow the
Lodge to move forward with its plans to renovate and request for catering services. For example,
3The actual terminology differed, as the ELUM used Public /Institutional and the FLUM used Public Semi - Public,
but the meaning was the same.
4 See attached excerpt of the LDC, Section 20- 13(D), page 30.
5 Zoning Map will be available at the meeting.
1" Reading August 4, 1998: Fraternal Organization Use Ordinance
the property could be zoned "RM -24" Medium Density Multi - Family Residential District, as it was
prior to the adoption of the LDC. This approach is advantageous because it would not have any
citywide impacts; and. perhaps more importantly, if the property were ever sold by the Elks Lodge,
it would provide for more housing in the City and buffer the existing surrounding residential uses
from US 1 and the adjacent "GR" general retail zoning district.
Changing the subject property's zoning district, however, also has negatives. Namely, the Elks
Lodge does not desire a change to the property's zoning district because it perceives the change as
"down- zoning." Additionally, due to the underlying land use, as designated by the City's
Comprehensive Plan, the zoning change could not take place without an amendment to the
Comprehensive Plan, which is a process requiring a minimum of six months. The Elks Lodge has
reported that a six -month timeframe is too long and would disallow its plans.
City staff brought the item to the Planning Board for preliminary discussion on June 30, 1998, and
July 14, 1998.6 On July 14, 1998, after speaking to representatives of the Elks Lodge, the Planning
Board advised staff to prepare two separate ordinances, (1) an ordinance amending the LDC in order
to allow the "fraternal organization or private club" use as a special use in the PI zoning district and
(2) an ordinance amending the LDC in order to permit a catering service use as an ancillary use to
a "fraternal organization or private club" use pursuant to special use approval!
An ordinance amending the LDC in order to allow the "fraternal organization or private club" use
as a special use in the PI zoning district would enable the Elks Lodge to move forward with its plans
to renovate and its request for catering services, provide the mechanism by which similar uses could
be located in the PI district, and ensure that the Planning Board and City Commission review the
appropriateness and compatibility of all such uses with the surrounding area.
RECOMMENDATION: Approval to begin the public hearing process.

Re: Addition To Permitted Use Schedule - For "PI" Public
Institutional Zoning District Located At 6304 S.W. 78th Street
Dear Commission Members:
On behalf of the members of the South Miami /Coral Gables Elks Lodge, owners of
the subject property, I - hereby respectfully request that the City Commission consider
adding "catering services" to the permitted use schedule for the "PI" Public Institutional
zoning district.
The nature and extent of the proposed use would be to conduct catering operations
as were previously operated in the Coral Gables Lodge building which would include
providing lunch for our members and other catering events both within our lodge and at
other locations. The hours of operation would range from 8 A.M. to 9 P.M., and on
occasions up to seven days a week.
As you know, the South Miami /Coral Gables Elks Lodge is composed of more than
five hundred (500) members dedicated to charitable, patriotic and community non - profit
activities. We have recently appointed committees and are currently formulating plans to
further our involvement with various City of South Miami community projects such as the
-Senior Citizens Home, After School House and Habitat For Humanity, as well the job
training and placement programs.

merit ?7. 1998
We are planning to attend the regular City Commission Meeting scheduled for

above number or at my office, (305) 358 -7747, Ext. 200, if you have any questions or
would want to speak with any of the members of the Lodge.

K. Staff ar,,ued that a variance did not seem like the answer.
L. Mr. Wiscombe said that new zoning might alleviate Habitat for Humanity's inconsistency
with the City.
M. Staff said that the 15- and 20 -foot requirements were a good move towards consistency. He
added that Habitat for Humanity provided affordable housing, which the City needs, and always
increases the value of the property they replace. He felt CRA would give adequate time and
attention to this issue.
N. Ms. Chimelis suggested that the Board draft a letter to CRA to make this a priority.
O. Mr. Pages recommended that tonight's minutes and the previous be forwarded to CRA.
VI. Fraternal Organizations in the PI zoning district
A. Staff recommended granting PI zoning to the Elks' Club through a special use approval
because the organization operates much like a church or community organization.
B. Mr. Morton recused himself because he is an Elk and might do architectural work on the
Lodge depending on the outcome of the club's request.
C. Mr. Pages had no objection.
E. Mr. Basu asked how the property was zoned PI and what was there before.
F. Staff did not know.
G. Mr. Basu asked where fraternal organizations were usually allowed.
H. Staff responded that most organizations were granted a special use permit for many zones
including RM -24 and RS -18.
I. Mr. Basu suggested that RM -24 might be a better zoning district for the property than PI. His
concern was the use of the property if the property were sold.
J. Mr. Pages asked staff to clarify the item.
K. Staff explained that the club existed in the current zone through legal non- conformity of the
PI district and that their wish to renovate their building and operate a catering a service was not
permitted under those conditions.
PB Min 06 -30 -98 5
L. Because of the large size of the property. Mr. Basu suggested that it be changed to a
residential zoning district.
M. Mr. Paues asked for a clarification of caterin <a.
N. Staff responded that it involved the preparation of food for off -site consumption.
O. Staff said that it would be best to explore changing the property's zoning to RM -24 and asked
for the Board's opinion on the catering issue.
P. Mr. Pages said that it was a reasonable suggestion.
Q. Mr. Basu was concerned for the impact of the catering on the nearby residences.
R. Staff responded that any provisions restricting the catering can be written into the special use
permit.
S. Staff said the special use variance would be written and sent to the Commission for first
reading.

VIII. Remarks
A. Mr. Pages opened the public hearing.
B. Mr. Tucker, from the audience, spoke on the telecommunication towers and the infringement

1. Mr. Pages was also pleased with the process.
2. Mr. Basu mentioned that traffic calming is another issue that should be discussed with
candor.
IX. Adjournment
PB Min 06 -30 -98 6
4. The board briefly discussed the ordinance.
V. FRATERNAL ORGANIZATIONS IN THE PI ZONING DISTRICT
1. Mr. Pages asked if anyone in the audience was present to discuss the local planning agency,
the Elks Lodge. and the Telecommunication Towers.
2. Mr. Pages suggested changing the order of the agenda and discussing the Elks Lodge.
3. Staff presented the agenda item concerning the Elks Lodge as an item for discussion, not for
vote.
4. Frost Walker signed in for the record to represent the Elks Lodge in their appeal to include
fraternal organizations in the PI zoning and to grant them a catering operation license.
5. Mr. Walker added that since the South Miami Elks Lodge has existed at its present location for
40 years with or without the appropriate zoning, the City might as well make the appropriate
changes to officially include fraternal organizations in the PI zoning district.
6. The Public hearing was opened. No one had any comments. The public hearing was closed.
7. Mr. Basu questioned why fraternal organizations are not included in the PI zone to begin with
if the Elks Lodge already exists within that zone.
8. Staff responded that the area was changed from RM -24 to PI in 1989.
9. Mr. Basu asked if anyone from the Elks Lodge had any insight on that change in order to
understand the reason behind the change.
10. Mr. Basu also wanted the Elks Lodge to be more specific about the amount of catering that
would take place.
11. Staff pointed out that there are single family residences across the street from the Elks Lodge
that might be affected by the operation of a catering service.
12. Mr. Frost said that the Elks Lodge intended to buffer the residences with fencing and
landscaping.
13. Mr. Frost also mentioned that the residential area was on the opposite side of the kitchen,
where the catering would be taking place, adding that their only plan is to enhance the area not
become a detriment to it.
PB Min 07 -14 -98 5
14. Mr. Basu explained that a zoning decision was important beyond the intentions of the Elks
because they might one day choose to sell the property.
15. Mr. Frost said that if the City is worried about the property being sold. they should allow the
improvements to be made on their lodge.
16. Mr. Scurr asked why the Elks Lodge considers RM -24 to be down- zoning if it is less
restrictive than PI.
17. Mr. Frost responded that it would be difficult to sell property surrounded by a Taco Bell and
an Amoco as residential property.
18. Mr. Basu said that it is in the best interest of the City to promote housing through an RM -24
zoning rather than add a category to PI zoning.
19. Mr. Frost asked for the board to restate the status of their application.
20. Staff said that the Elks Lodge had several options in order to obtain their permit.
21. Mr. Frost said that their main concern was the catering permit and that the zoning issue was
something that staff brought up.
22. Staff said that catering was not permitted in their zoning district.
23. Mr. Basu said that it was important to define the scope of the catering for concern for the
residents nearby.
24. Mr. Frost responded that the improvements they wanted to make were all with the
community in mind.
25. Mr. Basu was in agreement, but opined that they must take the people living around the lodge
into account.
26. Mr. Pages affirmed that it was the long -term ramifications of a zoning change that concerned
the board.
27. Ms. Chimelis said that the size of the kitchen would dictate the scope of the catering if that
was a concern.
28. Ms. Chimelis also said that the long -term scope of the club is important, but that this zoning
question was an impediment to the speed with which the club can carry out its improvements and
that this was probably not the best time to change the long -term zoning.
29. Staff suggested submitting the following to the Mayor and City Commission for approval to
PB Min 07 -14 -98 6
expedite the Elks* request:
(1) Ordinance to admit fraternal organizations in the PI zoning district
(2) Ordinance to permit catering services in the PI zoning district
(3) Special Use Resolution to allow the Elks Lodge to operate a catering service.
30. Mr. Basu suggested to consider the options separately and to make the proper restrictions on
the catering to keep it in check.
31. Staff reassured the Board that under a special use request all details could be articulated in
order for the greatest amount of restrictions to be in place while still allowing the Elks Lodge to
operate its catering service.
32. Mr. Pages ended the discussion and concluded that the path was now clear to start working
on both the revision of the zoning code to allow fraternal organizations in the PI zoning district
and the special use permit for catering that the Elks Lodge requested.
V. Approval of Minutes
(A). The Board took no vote on minutes at this meeting.
VI. Remarks
(A). Traffic
1. Mr. Pages inquired about the traffic situation around Shops at Sunset on Bird Road.
2. Staff responded that a group of consultants has been working on studies to alleviate the traffic
problems in that area.
3. Staff said that the consultants are scheduled to make a presentation to the City Commission
that will provide an overview of some possible solutions.
4. The studies are also targeted towards residential traffic flow through one way streets and/or
flashing red lights for which they have received county approval.
(B) Staff said that Shops at Sunset are scheduled to open on December 4 rather than October.
(C) Staff said that Sunset Drive was scheduled for the end of August.

Ancillary Use
REQUEST:
AN ORDINANCE OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SOUTH
MIAMI, FLORIDA, RELATING TO AN AMENDMENT OF SECTION 20 -3.4 OF THE LAND
DEVELOPMENT CODE IN ORDER TO ALLOW CATERING SERVICES AS AN ANCILLARY
USE TO A "FRATERNAL ORGANIZATION OR PRIVATE CLUB" USE PURSUANT TO
SPECIAL USE APPROVAL; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR
ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT; AND, PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS
The proposed ordinance is related to proposed Ordinance No. X, which is also included on this City
Commission Agenda. As a result, the item shares much of the same background information.
On April 27, 1998, Manuel A Cuadrado, the Exalted Ruler of the South Miami /Coral Gables Elks
Lodge, requested that the City of South Miami consider permitting "catering services" in the "PI"
Public /Institutional zoning district in order to allow the Lodge located at 6304 SW 78"' Street to
operate a catering service on the premises. Mr. Cuadrado explained that the catering services were
formerly operated as part of the Coral Gables Lodge, which had been sold due to the merger of the
Coral Gables and South Miami Lodges.' Subsequently, the South Miami /Coral Gables Elks Lodge
desired to bring the catering services to its location in South Miami. Through later discussions
between the Elks and the City, it was also discovered that the proposed addition of catering services
was to be coordinated with a major remodeling of the South Miami Lodge.
Staff's initial analysis of the request revealed that it could not be permitted under the current
regulations of the Land Development Code (LDC) because (1) the Lodge's principal use, "fraternal
organization or private club," is not a permitted use within the PI district, making the Lodge a legal
I See attached letter addressed to Mayor and City Commission from Mr. Cuadrado, dated April 27, 1998
l' Reading August 4, 1998: Catering Services Ordinance
nonconforming use. and, pursuant to Section 20 -4.8 of the LDC, a legal nonconforming use cannot
increase its nonconformity through additions, substantial renovations, or expansion of use;' and, (2)
a catering service is not a permitted use within the PI zoning district. Thus, a two -step process is
required to approve the Lodge's request to permit catering services at its location: (1) the principal
use, "fraternal organization or private club" must be a permitted use, and (2) the proposed ancillary
use, "catering service" must be a permitted use.
The first step is being addressed by proposed Ordinance No. X;' and, if the ordinance is approved,
there are two principal methods by which the Lodge's proposed catering service could be permitted.
One, the permitted use chart could be amended to permit the catering service use in the PI zoning
district outright or as a special use. Two, the "catering service" use could be permitted as an
ancillary use to a "fraternal organization or private club" use pursuant to special use approval.
The "catering service" use is permitted outright only in the former "I" Intensive Use District, which
is now part of TODD, and as a special use in the "SR" Specialty Retail District.' The limited
number of zoning districts in which the use is permitted is attributable to the intensive nature of the
use. A catering service's association with the preparation and delivery of food can have several
negative impacts on a surrounding area, including increased noise and traffic; problems related to
the generation of large amounts of garbage, such as litter, odor, and vermin, and compatibility of the
use's building with the surrounding physical environment: As a result of these potential negative
impacts, staff does not believe that the "catering service" use should be a permitted use in the PI
district outright. Additionally, staff does not believe that the "catering service" use should be
permitted outright or as a special use in the PI district because the district's purpose "is to provide
for schools, governmental facilities, utilities and churches and similar uses..." Thus, permitting the
use outright or as a special use would open the door for completely commercial operations, thereby
violating the intent and purpose of the district. Lastly, staff does not believe that the "catering
service" use should be permitted as an ancillary use to a "fraternal organization or private club" use
pursuant to special approval in all of the districts in which the "fraternal organization or private club"
use is permitted because the use is permitted in two residential districts.' Therefore, if this option
were implemented, there could be catering services operating in residential districts. Instead, staff
recommends approving the "catering service" use as an ancillary use to a "fraternal organization or
private club" pursuant to special use approval for those "fraternal organization or private club" uses
located in the PI zoning district.
Staff believes that an ordinance amending the LDC in order to permit a "catering service" use as an
ancillary use to a "fraternal organization or private club" use, pursuant to special use approval, for
those "fraternal organization or private club" uses located in the PI zoning district is the most
advantageous way to enable the Lodge to move forward with its request for catering service because
it ensures that the catering is incidental to the principal use; requires the request to be evaluated and
2 See attached excerpts of Section 20 -4.8 of the LDC.
3 See Ordinance No. X for specific details.
4 Section 20- 3.3(D) of the LDC, entitled "Permitted Use Schedule," only exhibits the use as permitted in the I
district, but Section 20 -2.3, entitled "Definitions," explains that it is permitted as a type of restaurant in the SR
district.
S The use is permitted in the RM -18 and RM -24 Districts.

conditioned, if necessary. through the special use process; and, by limiting it to an ancillary use to
a "fraternal organization or private club" use in the PI district, it avoids allowing catering services
directly in residential districts. Furthermore, allowing catering services as an ancillary use to
fraternal organizations located in the PI district would not deviate from the activities associated with
other permitted uses in the PI district. For example, schools have lunchrooms, and churches have
spaghetti dinners.
City staff brought the item to the Planning Board for preliminary discussion on June 30, 1998, and
July 14, 1998.6 On July 14, 1998, after speaking to representatives of the Elks Lodge, the Planning
Board advised staff to prepare two separate ordinances, (1) an ordinance amending the LDC in order
to allow the "fraternal organization or private club" use as a special use in the PI zoning district and
(2) an ordinance amending the LDC in order to permit a catering service use as an ancillary use to
a "fraternal organization or private club" use pursuant to special use approval! This ordinance
represents the second of the Planning Board's directives.
RECOMMENDATION: Approval to begin the public hearing process.

Re: Addition To Permitted Use Schedule - For "Pl" Public
Institutional Zoning District Located At 6304 S.W. 78th Street
Dear Commission Members:
On behalf of the members of the South Miami /Coral Gables Elks Lodge, owners of
the subject property, I hereby respectfully request that the City Commission consider
adding "catering services" to the permitted use schedule for the "Pl" Public Institutional
zoning district.
The nature and extent of the proposed use would be to conduct catering operations
as were previously operated in the Coral Gables Lodge building which would include
providing lunch for our members and other catering events both within our lodge and at
other locations. The hours of operation would range from 8 A.M. to 9 P.M., and on
occasions up to seven days a week.
As you know, the South Miami /Coral Gables Elks Lodge is composed of more than
five hundred (500) members dedicated to charitable, patriotic and community non - profit
activities. We have recently appointed committees and are currently formulating plans to
further our involvement with various City of South Miami community projects such as the
-Senior Citizens Home, After School House and Habitat For Humanity, as well the job
training and placement programs.
City of South Miami Commission
AlZril27, 1998
We are planning to attend the regular City Commission Meeting scheduled for
Tuesday, May 5, 1998, at 7:30 P.M., and hope that you will favorably consider sponsoring
the requested change at that time. In the meantime, please feel free to call me at the
above number or at my office, (305) 358 -7747, Ext. 200, if you have any questions or
would want to speak with any of the members of the Lodge.
Thank you in advance for your kind consideptiqn.

K. Staff ar�.tued that a variance did not seem like the answer.
L. Mr. Wiscombe said that new zoning might alleviate Habitat for Humanity's inconsistency
with the City.
M. Staff said that the 15- and 20 -foot requirements were a good move towards consistency. He
added that Habitat for Humanity provided affordable housing. which the City needs. and always
increases the value of the property the}, replace. He felt CRA would give adequate time and
attention to this issue.
N. Ms. Chimelis suggested that the Board draft a Ietter to CRA to make this a priority.
O. Mr. Pages recommended that tonight's minutes and the previous be forwarded to CRA.
VI. Fraternal Organizations in the PI zoning district
A. Staff recommended granting PI zoning to the Elks' Club through a special use approval
because the organization operates much like a church or community organization.
B. Mr. Morton recused himself because he is an Elk and might do architectural work on the
Lodge depending on the outcome of the club's request.
C. Mr. Pages had no objection.
E. Mr. Basu asked how the property was zoned PI and what was there before.
F. Staff did not know.
G. Mr. Basu asked where fraternal organizations were usually allowed.
H. Staff responded that most organizations were granted a special use permit for many zones
including RM -24 and RS -18.
I. Mr. Basu suggested that RM -24 might be a better zoning district for the property than PI. His
concern was the use of the property if the property were sold.
J. Mr. Pages asked staff to clarify the item.
K. Staff explained that the club existed in the current zone through legal non - conformity of the
PI district and that their wish to renovate their building and operate a catering a service was not
permitted under those conditions.
PB Min 06 -30 -98 5
L. Because of the large size of the property. Mr. Basu suggested that it be changed to a
residential zoning district.
M. Mr. Paues asked for a clarification of catering.
N. Staff responded that it involved the preparation of food for off -site consumption.
O. Staff said that it would be best to explore changing the property's zoning to RM -24 and asked
for the Board's opinion on the catering issue.
P. Mr. Pages said that it was a reasonable suggestion.
Q. Mr. Basu was concerned for the impact of the catering on the nearby residences.
R. Staff responded that any provisions restricting the catering can be written into the special use
permit.
S. Staff said the special use variance would be written and sent to the Commission for first
reading.
VII. Approval of minutes
A. Motion: Mr. Wiscombe moved to approve the minutes from May 26, 1998 as presented. Mr.
Morton seconded.
Vote: Approved:6 Opposed:0
VIII. Remarks
A. Mr. Pages opened the public hearing.
B. Mr. Tucker, from the audience, spoke on the telecommunication towers and the infringement
on local power by the federal government it represents.
C. Mr. Pages closed the public hearing.
D. Staff thanked the Board for their insight when discussing the different items.
1. Mr. Pages was also pleased with the process.
2. Mr. Basu mentioned that traffic calming is another issue that should be discussed with
candor.
IX. Adjournment
PB Min 06 -30 -98 6
4. The board briefly discussed the ordinance.
V. FRATERNAL ORGANIZATIONS IN THE PI ZONING DISTRICT
1. Mr. Pages asked if anyone in the audience was present to discuss the local planning agency.
the Elks Lodge, and the Telecommunication Towers.
2. Mr. Pages suggested changing the order of the agenda and discussing the Elks Lodge.
3. Staff presented the agenda item concerning the Elks Lodge as an item for discussion, not for
vote.
4. Frost Walker signed in for the record to represent the Elks Lodge in their appeal to include
fraternal organizations in the PI zoning and to grant them a catering operation license.
5. Mr. Walker added that since the South Miami Elks Lodge has existed at its present location for
40 years with or without the appropriate zoning, the City might as well make the appropriate
changes to officially include fraternal organizations in the PI zoning district.
6. The Public hearing was opened. No one had any comments. The public hearing was closed.
7. Mr. Basu questioned why fraternal organizations are not included in the PI zone to begin with
if the Elks Lodge already exists within that zone.
8. Staff responded that the area was changed from RM -24 to PI in 1989.
9. Mr. Basu asked if anyone from the Elks Lodge had any insight on that change in order to
understand the reason behind the change.
10. Mr. Basu also wanted the Elks Lodge to be more specific about the amount of catering that
would take place.
11. Staff pointed out that there are single family residences across the street from the Elks Lodge
that might be affected by the operation of a catering service.
12. Mr. Frost said that the Elks Lodge intended to buffer the residences with fencing and
landscaping.
13. Mr. Frost also mentioned that the residential area was on the opposite side of the kitchen,
where the catering would be taking place, adding that their only plan is to enhance the area not
become a detriment to it.
PB Min 07 -14 -98 5
14. Mr. Basu explained that a zoning decision was important beyond the intentions of the Elks
because they might one day choose to sell the property.
15. Mr. Frost said that if the City is worried about the property being sold. they should allow the
improvements to be made on their lodge.
16. Mr. Scurr asked why the Elks Lodge considers RM -24 to be down- zoning if it is less
restrictive than PL
17. Mr. Frost responded that it would be difficult to sell property surrounded by a Taco Bell and
an Amoco as residential property.
18. Mr. Basu said that it is in the best interest of the City to promote housing through an RM -24
zoning rather than add a category to PI zoning.
19. Mr. Frost asked for the board to restate the status of their application.
20. Staff said that the Elks Lodge had several options in order to obtain their permit.
21. Mr. Frost said that their main concern was the catering permit and that the zoning issue was
something that staff brought up.
22. Staff said that catering was not permitted in their zoning district.
23. Mr. Basu said that it was important to define the scope of the catering for concern for the
residents nearby.
24. Mr. Frost responded that the improvements they wanted to make were all with the
community in mind.
25. Mr. Basu was in agreement, but opined that they must take the people living around the lodge
into account.
26. Mr. Pages affirmed that it was the long -term ramifications of a zoning change that concerned
the board.
27. Ms. Chimelis said that the size of the kitchen would dictate the scope of the catering if that
was a concern.
28. Ms. Chimelis also said that the long -term scope of the club is important, but that this zoning
question was an impediment to the speed with which the club can carry out its improvements and
that this was probably not the best time to change the long -term zoning.
29. Staff suggested submitting the following to the Mayor and City Commission for approval to
PB Min 07 -14 -98 6
expedite the Elks' request:
(1) Ordinance to admit fraternal organizations in the PI zoning district
(2) Ordinance to permit catering services in the PI zoning district
(3) Special Use Resolution to allow the Elks Lodge to operate a catering service.
30. Mr. Basu suggested to consider the options separately and to make the proper restrictions on
the catering to keep it in check.
31. Staff reassured the Board that under a special use request all details could be articulated in
order for the greatest amount of restrictions to be in place while still allowing the Elks Lodge to
operate its catering service.
32. Mr. Pages ended the discussion and concluded that the path was now clear to start working
on both the revision of the zoning code to allow fraternal organizations in the PI zoning district
and the special use permit for catering that the Elks Lodge requested.
V. Approval of Minutes
(A). The Board took no vote on minutes at this meeting.
VI. Remarks
(A). Traffic
1. Mr. Pages inquired about the traffic situation around Shops at Sunset on Bird Road.
2. Staff responded that a group of consultants has been working on studies to alleviate the traffic
problems in that area.
3. Staff said that the consultants are scheduled to make a presentation to the City Commission
that will provide an overview of some possible solutions.
4. The studies are also targeted towards residential traffic flow through one way streets and/or
flashing red lights for which they have received county approval.
(B) Staff said that Shops at Sunset are scheduled to open on December 4 rather than October.
(C) Staff said that Sunset Drive was scheduled for the end of August.

Commission Meeting,

COMMERCIAL WASTE
COLLECTION ORDINANCE
FRANCHISE AGREEMENTS
As you are aware, the Administration has proposed and received conceptual Commission
approval on the privatization of commercial solid waste collection. Presently, this operation is
conducted by both private companies and City crews (Public Works Department). Over the past
year, private companies have lowered their fees to a point where the City can no longer compete
in a cost - effective fashion. As previously presented to you, there is also a financial benefit
resulting from privatization. This is comprised of a combination of cost savings and franchise fee
revenues, both of which are included in next fiscal year's budget.
To implement the above, the attached solid waste franchise ordinance is being submitted for your
approval. The ordinance, prepared by the City Attorney with input from the Administration,
addresses all the legal and operational specifics entailed in the required franchise agreements.
Changes and added provisions to Chapter 11 of the City's Code of Ordinances are provided for in
the ordinance's language.
The provisions of the ordinance are self - explanatory. The most important issues it addresses are
the establishment of non - exclusive franchises and associated fees (Sections 11 -2, 11 -3 and 11 -10),
setting service standards (Section 11 -12), and the creation of key term definitions (Section 11 -4).
