The purpose of the Town Center Plan is to stimulate reinvestment and guide future development to create a vibrant commercial center serving the entire North Beach community. The next step is to amend the zoning ordinance and the comprehensive plan to implement the land use and urban design recommendations in the conceptual plan. The Planning Department prepared the North Beach Town Center Development Code as a comprehensive guide to the purpose and effect of each element of the proposed code amendments. This document was reviewed at a community workshop in North Beach on September 16, 2008 .and in two workshops with the Planning Board on October 28, 2008 and November 25,.2008. Commission Memorandum of July 14, 2010 Setting of Public Hearing -Historic Designation Miami Beach Rod 8 Reel Club, 218 South Hibiscus Drive Page 3 of 3 The Land Use and Development Committee discussed the proposed TC code on February 9, 2009 and heard public testimony. The Committee expressed their desire to ensure that the new regulations are not overly burdensome on developers, provide incentives to attract new development, potentially reducing the area of the Town Center to concentrate development in the blocks between Collins and Abbott Avenues, and emphasizing the importance of constructing a public parking garage. The Committee passed a motion to hold a special LUDC meeting to further discuss this item due to its importance and complexity. Subsequently, staff met individually with the Mayor and members of the LUDC and determined that there was consensus to move forward with the ordinance including certain modifications that have been incorporated into the ordinance. The Land Use and Development Committee discussed the proposed TC code for a second time on March 22, 2010. The Committee voted to send the item on to the Planning Board, after first holding a public workshop in the North Beach Town Center area, and with the following changes and conditions: 1) no variances to the use provisions; 2) prohibit rooftop alcoholic beverage venues; 3) limit accessory uses in hotels in the TC-3 area to a similar ratio of seats to rooms as used for South Pointe; 4) address outdoor bar counters by prohibiting or limiting to more than 100 feet from a residential use; and 5) inclusion of additional TC-3 area north of Publix into area permitting additional expanded conditional uses. The item is scheduled to return to Committee prior to first reading at the full Commission. The Planning Department held two community workshops on the proposed North Beach Town Center zoning amendments on Wednesday, May 5, 2010. The two meetings were held at 4 PM at the Shane Rowing Center and at 6:30 PM at the North Shore Youth Center. Notices of the workshops were mailed to all property owners within a 375 feet radius of the Town Center. Comments from the community were generally very positive. On June 22, 2010, the Planning Board ordinances related to rezoning of the amendment, the zoning map amendment, the future land use map amendment. voted 5-0 to recommend approval of all four North Beach Town Center: the zoning -text .the comprehensive plan text amendment and STAFF ANALYSIS The Administration recommends that the Mayor and City Commission adopt these resolutions scheduling a first reading public hearing on September 15, 2010 to consider all four ordinances related to rezoning of the North Beach Town Center: the zoning text amendment, the zoning map amendment, the comprehensive plan text amendment and the future land use map amendment.
