ANALYSIS
BACKGROUND
On November 9, 2016, the Mayor and City Commission approved an ordinance that created the
ability to grant a concurrency exemption for uses at the city -owned North Beach Bandshell,
Ronald W. Shane Watersports Center, and the Miami Beach Botanical Garden by resolution
(Ordinance No. 2016-4053.)
On March 1, 2017, the Transit Master Plan and Concurrency Comprehensive Plan Amendment
was adopted (Ordinance 2017-4074). This amendment allows the City Commission to waive
concurrency requirements in GU district, in a manner consistent with the Comprehensive Plan
ANALYS I S
Concurrency is a one-time fee that is not assessed yearly, but runs with the use as long as it
continues. The concurrency fee is based on the number of trips to the establishment generated
pursuant to the trip generation rates in the Institute of Traffic Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation
Manual. The concurrency fee is based on the costs to the City to mitigate traffic to the area and
is divided into three geographical areas: South Beach, below Dade Boulevard; Middle Beach,
below 63rd Street to Dade Boulevard; and North Beach, below the City Line to 63rd Street.
Currently, Section 122-5 of the Land Development Regulations of the City Code contains ten
Page 1147 of 1596
specific exemptions from obtaining a preliminary concurrency determination or a final
concurrency reservation certificate. The tenth exemption is as follows:
(10) Uses at the North Shore Bandshell, the Ronald W. Shane Watersports Center, and the
Miami Beach Botanical Garden, as determined by the city commission by resolution.
The proposed resolution is intended to facilitate the ability of the Ronald W. Shane Watersports
Center (GU) to become a fully licensed hall for hire, with all the licensures necessary to
increase its revenue streams for fundraising purposes.
The proposed amendment would exempt uses from concurrency review and paying a
concurrency fee, which would significantly decrease costs to the,operating organization. As the
facility is ran by nonprofit organizations, it is important that the facility be able to direct as much
revenue as possible to providing services to the community.
PLANNING BOARD REVIEW
On June 28, 2016, the Planning Board (by a 5-0 vote) transmitted the ordinance amendment to
the City Commission with a favorable recommendation that created the ability to grant a
concurrency exemption for uses at certain city -owned facilities.
SUMMARY
The proposed resolution is consistent with the Goals, Objectives, and Policies of the
Comprehensive Plan.
CONCLUSION
The Administration recommends that the City Commission that the City Commission adopt the
Resolution.
