COMMISSION MEMORANDUM
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission
FROM: Eric Carpenter, City Manager
DATE: May 20, 2026
TITLE: A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, ACCEPTING THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE
PUBLIC SAFETY AND NEIGHBORHOOD QUALITY OF LIFE COMMITTEE AT ITS
OCTOBER 22, 2025 MEETING AND THE DESIGN REVIEW BOARD AT ITS JULY
10, 2025 MEETING AND DIRECTING THE CITY ADMINISTRATION TO UPDATE
THE PARKLET DESIGN GUIDELINES TO ESTABLISH MORE UNIFORM,
CONSISTENT, AND AESTHETICALLY ENHANCED STANDARDS, EFFECTIVE
OCTOBER 1, 2026.
RECOMMENDATION
The Administration recommends accepting the recommendations from the Public Safety and
Quality of Life Committee (PSNQLC) at its October 22, 2025, meeting, and the Design Review
Board (DRB) at its July 10, 2025, meeting, to update the adopted Parklet Design Guidelines, and
establish more uniform, consistent, and aesthetically enhanced standards, effective October 1,
2026, consistent with the commencement of the next Outdoor Dining Concession Agreement.
BACKGROUND/HISTORY
On September 3, 2025, at the request of Commissioner Kristen Rosen Gonzalez, the Mayor and
City Commission (City Commission) approved item C4M, a referral to PSNQLC to discuss the
DRB's recommendations from its July 10, 2025 meeting regarding the Parklet Design Guidelines,
and if possible, provide direction to City Staff for potential amendments.
On July 10, 2025, Public Works staff delivered a PowerPoint presentation to the DRB outlining
recommended updates to the existing Parklet Design Guidelines, intended to address the
following concerns:
• Umbrellas do not meet the current size regulations.
• Variations in Parklet colors and designs, especially on Washington Avenue, may detract
from rather than enhance the overall beautification.
• Required water barriers, typically in standard orange or gray, covered with different
colored planters or surface materials to improve aesthetics, thereby not promoting the
desired standard appearance.
• Proposal for a standardized umbrella style to achieve a more uniform look, along with
recommendations for the types of plants to be used within the Parklet area.
• Establishing location criteria. Previously, compliance was required with City Code Chapter
82, Article IV, Division 5, Subdivision II, Permit, Sec. 82-390. However, Ordinance No.
2022-4492, adopted on June 22, 2022, deleted Division 5.
Upon conclusion of the presentation, members of the DRB offered alternative recommendations
that differed slightly from those proposed by City staff. Below is a list of the proposed
amendments, accompanied by City staff's responses:
308 of 1709
Incorporating larger umbrellas than the current size to better protect people from the sun
or rain.
✓ Currently, there is a size restriction of six (6) by six (6) feet.
Finding a way to incorporate fans, with 2-4 options available, particularly on the west side
of Washington Avenue.
✓ There is no specific language related to fans in Parklets. The current limitation for fans
is that they should not be powered through an extension cord.
Allowing rolled -down shades to protect people from the sun, especially on the east side of
Washington Avenue.
✓ Rolled -down tarps are only permitted during the rain.
On October 22, 2025, Public Works staff presented PSNQLC members, the DRB
recommendations. The discussion concluded with a motion to move the item to the City
Commission, with a favorable recommendation to update the adopted Parklet Design Guidelines,
and establish more uniform, consistent, and aesthetically enhanced standards.
ANALYSIS
The Administration believes that it is in the City's best interest to comprehensively update the
Parklet Design Guidelines, which have become outdated since their adoption during the COVID-
19 pandemic. Updating these guidelines will ensure alignment with modern standards and better
meet the evolving needs of the community. The proposed updates incorporate recommendations
from the Public Works Department and the DRB, as discussed at the DRB meeting on July 10,
2025 (Attachment A). The proposed effective date is October 1, 2026, coinciding with the start of
the next Outdoor Dining Concession Agreement. The current agreement, which lasts for two
years, will expire on September 30, 2026. Additional time may be provided, if necessary, to allow
for a smooth transition to the updated guidelines.

In 2015, the Mayor's Blue Ribbon Panel for Washington Avenue recommended that the City Commission
encourage the establishment of parklets along Washington Avenue, in order to stimulate economic development and
further activate the Washington Avenue corridor. Before the year's closing, the City Commission approved its first
Resolution to create a Washington Avenue Pilot Parklet Program ("Pilot Program"), allowing businesses located along
Washington Avenue to install parklets for utilization by sidewalk cafes in on -street parking spaces on a temporary
basis, subject to certain requirements, fees and criteria.
In order to encourage restaurants to participate in the Pilot Program, the Mayor and City Commission amended its
City Code to abate sidewalk cafe permit application fees and per -square -foot permit fees for sidewalk cafe
operators that participated in the Pilot Program. The Washington Avenue Parklet Program and fee abatement were
approved through March 31, 2021.
Early last year In early 2020, the word world was struck by the COVID-19 pandemic, which required the issuance
of Emergency Orders by Miami Dade County, temporarily closing and/or imposing restrictions on public and
private facilities, including temporary closures, occupancy limits, and other restrictions applicable to restaurants.
These restrictions greatly limited e4onomic activity in the City of Miami Beach, and adversely impacted City
businesses.
On May 13, 2020, the City Commission adopted its first Resolution, creating the Restaurant Recovery
Outdoor Seating Program ("Outdoor Seating Program"), in an effort to encourage businesses to reopen and
promote economic recovery, while safeguarding the public's health and safety. This Restaurant Recovery
Outdoor Seating Program is due to sunset on September 20, 2021.
On January 20, 2021, the Land Use and Sustainability Committee held a discussion regarding sidewalk cafes
and parklets in the Sunset Harbour neighborhood. At their meeting, the LUSC members recommended that parklets
for sidewalk cafe seating continue to be permitted on Washington Avenue, include Sunset Harbor and bring it to
Commission for approval
The Ordinance as amended, creates created a Parklet Program, establishes establishing the scope of the
Program, provides providing for Parklet Design Guidelines, identifies identifying permitted Parklet areas,
provides providing for an application, site plan, and fees, incorporates incorporating provisions of the
Sidewalk Cafe Ordinance, and provides providing for removal.
On October 1, 2022, the Ordinance as part of the Sidewalk Cafe permitting process was removed and replaced by the
Outdoor Dining Concession Program. The Parklet Design Guidelines were incorporated into the new Outdoor
Dining Concession Agreement as part of Article II, Paragraph 33.

PROGRAM OVERVIEW
The City of Miami Beach's Parklet Program aims to facilitate the conversion of on -street parking spaces into an
extension of restaurant seating areas on a temporary basis for all to enjoy in the areas of Washington Avenue
between 6 and Lincoln Road and the area of , Sunset Harbour, and other applicable areas within the City. The
Parklet Program provides a path for merchants to take individual actions in the development and beautification
of the city's public realm. The first formal public parklets were initially conceived and installed in San Francisco
in 2010. Since that time the program has become very successful in several communities and is being emulated
in cities around the world. Parklets are intended as aesthetic enhancements to the street scope, providing an
opportune response to the need for increased public open space and extension to restaurant seating area. They
may also provide amenities like planting, bike parking, and art. They reflect the city's commitment to encouraging
walking and biking, creating pedestrian -friendly streets, and strengthening our communities.
The materials consist of semi -permanent, pervious, high -quality decks that expand the pedestrian realm beyond the
sidewalk, allowing business owners to increase outdoor seating, without requiring permanent street redesign and
construction. They may include additional amenities and other associated improvements, generally located in front
of and developed and operated by the adjacent restaurant business.
PROGRAM GOALS
Reimagine the potential of city streets
Public rights -of --ways make up approximately 25 percent of the city's land area. Parklets promote a low-cost, easily
implementable approach to public space improvement through projects that energize and reinvent the public
realm. They help address the desire and need for increased public open space and wider sidewalks.
Encourage non -motorized transportation
Parklets encourage walking by providing pedestrian amenities like seating, landscaping and associated
enhancements. Parklets may provide bicycle parking and thus increase the visibility and availability of bicycling in
and around Miami Beach.
Encourage pedestrian activity
Parklets provide pocket spaces for pedestrians to sit and enjoy the outdoors, while also improving walkability.
Support local businesses
Parklets attract attention to businesses and provide additional seating that can be used by businesses' patrons. A
Parklets could also beautify the street and create a neighborhood destination.

LOCATION CRITERIA
Parklets for this program must comply with Miami Beach Code
of Ordinances Chapter 82, Article IV, Division 5
Subdivision it. Permit, Sec. 82-390 the Outdoor Dining
Concession Agreement and the provisions in these guidelines.
Parklets will be permitted on both sides of Washington Avenue
from b Street to Lincoln Road and in Sunset Harbour, and in
other restaurant areas where feasible.
Parking Spaces
Parklets can be sited along the curb line on streets where on -
street parking spaces exist. They can be considered in any lo-
cation where there are space(s) for on -street parallel, angled,
or perpendicular parking, including unmarked parking spaces
*Parklets on angled parking spaces will be evaluated on a
case -by -case basis for feasibility.
Where an accessible parking space is proposed for a Parklet
location, the relocation of such accessible parking space must
be available within the vicinity, and must be reviewed and
approved by the Parking Department.
Parklet platforms must be placed at least one parking space
away from corners to maintain sight triangle visibility unless
curb configuration, such as large bump -out, allows for safe
placement of a Parklet closest to the corner (evaluated on a
case -by -case basis) and in compliance with any applicable
Miami Dade County or FDOT requirements for visibility as
applicable.

Reflective Elements at Corners
Reflective elements are required at the outside corners of
all Parklets. Soft hit posts are a standard solution
deployed at the outside edges; however the city will
consider additional reflective elements incorporated in
the Parklet design.
Wheel Stops
For Parklets in parallel parking spaces, a three-foot wheel
stop must be installed one foot from the curb at the edge
of the front and back parking spaces. When Parklets are
installed adjacent to parallel parking spaces, wheel stops
should be set back four feet from the Parklet structure. For
angled parking spaces and adjacent to driveways, City
staff will evaluate to determine the appropriate location
for wheel stops. Wheel stops shall be made of recycled
rubber/plastic. Additional barriers may be required on
perimeter following Miami Dade County or FDOT
requirement as applicable.
Water Barriers
Parklets must install water filled traffic barriers around the
perimeter of the Parklet area. Barrier model must have a
crash rating of equal to or greater than the design speed
of the adjacent travel lane. Barriers may be enclosed by
wood, composite, PVC or other similar high quality
finished material. Enclosed barriers must be available to
inspection at all times.

Site Conditions
The initial site plan must accurately reflect the existing site
conditions and include streetscape features like adjacent
bike racks, utility covers, inlets, street poles, existing signs,
street trees, tree wells, etc.
Sight Triangle
Parklets must not interfere with sight triangles. A sight tri-
angle is a triangular shaped portion of land established for
unobstructed visibility of motorists entering or leaving a
street or driveway intersection. On this portion of land, no
stationary or movable element (i.e. vehicles, vehicular
maneuvering area, signs, landscaping or objects of any
kind, including solid buffers) is permitted to be located
between a height of two and one-half (2%) and eight (8) feet
above the elevation of the adjoining edge of pavement. An
exception to the prohibition is a tree with clear trunk
between two and one-half (2'/2) and eight (8) feet.
Parking Space Identification
A maximum of two (2) on -street parking spaces will be
allowed per Parklet per city block where the restaurant
may be located; additional parklets per block will be
reviewed for approval. The plan needs to show the
location of the parking space(s) to be removed and the
zone number, if applicable.

THE PLATFORM
The Platform
The platform provides the structural base for the Parklet. The
permit application must include plans signed and sealed by a
design or construction professional to ensure that the platform
will be sturdy and safe. Applicants must provide a Hurricane
Preparedness Plan to remove or secure the platform during
storm events or permit plans must specify the platform to sustain
hurricane force winds.
Bolting
Bolting into the street or penetrating the surface of the road is
not allowed and any alteration may not be allowed without a
restoration plan and an excavation bond posted by the
applicant and their contractor. Parklets may be bolted to the
existing curb, with specific restoration requirements.
Platform Surface
The top of the Parklet platform must be flush with the sidewalk
and a maximum slope no greater than 2% in any direction.
There shall be a maximum gap of one-half inch between the
platform and the sidewalk or otherwise there shall be an
accessible transition plate or other approved solution to
mitigate gap. In the case of a sloping street (crown of
road),platform structure must be designed and built to adjust to
such slope to provide a level surface not exceeding 2% slope.
Access for Maintenance
If the platform base is not solid, the space underneath the
platform surface must be accessible for maintenance through
access panels, removable pavers, etc.
Surface Materials
Platform surface must be pervious high -quality decking and
pavers. Finish materials must be wood, composite, masonry.
Tiles, rugs, artificial turf will not be permitted. Also loose
particles, such as sand or loose stone, are not permitted on the
Parklet; surfaces must be slip -resistant.

THE PLATFORM
Drainage
The Parklet platform cannot impede the flow of curbside
drainage. Plans must show covers on openings at either
end of the Parklet with screens that allow flow of water but
prevent blockage from debris.
Street Crown and Curb Height
Most Miami Beach streets are crowned (parabolic in cross-
section) and typically edged with a six-inch high curb. This
is to ensure that storm water flows toward the curb and
gutter during a rainstorm. The curb is intended to prevent
water from flooding the sidewalk and adjacent buildings.
This means that the elevation of the street rises further from
the curb, effectively reducing the amount of space
(thickness) to build the Parklet platform. Whereas along the
curb there may be 6 inches height for your platform
structure, such height may be reduced to as little as 2
inches further into the street. Furthermore, both curb
heights and street crown heights vary with each street
segment. Applicants and designers must take field
measurements before beginning the design to make sure
their proposed platform solution will fit within the allotted
space and satisfy all slope and accessibility requirements.

DESIGN ELEMENTS
Buffer the edges
Depending on the location, the Parklet shall have an edge to buffer the
street. This can take the form of planters, railing, co- bling, or other
approved equivalent buffer. All exterior edges of a Parklet shall be
buffered by the mandatory installation of water barriers,
supplemented by an optional railing. However, a railing shall be
required in instances where water barriers are not enclosed within a
high -quality finished material. The height Railing heights shall not
exceed 42", and its finish shall be finishes are restricted to painted
metal or clear anodized aluminum, concrete or composite materials.
Both barrier enclosures and railings must be free of signage and/or
logos. Furthermore, Parklets must maintain a 4 foot buffer from any
adjacent parking space, this requirement may be reduced, subject to
administrative review, in instances where the Parklet does not face a
parking space or is positioned adjacent to another parklet. Scale of
the buffer required will vary depending on local context. For example,
on some low -traffic streets/sections, a continuous edge may not be
required. (If cable railing is used, spacing between cables cannot
exceed six
inches).
Maintain aVisual Connection to the Street
The Parklet design should maintain a visual connection to the street.
Continuous opaque walls above forty-two inches that block views into
the Parklet from the surrounding streetscape are prohibited. You are
allowed to include columns and other vertical elements, for review
and approval during permit review.
