ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION The proposed ordinance amendment to extend the off-leash area pilot program in South Pointe Park is presented for second reading and public hearing following a discussion and recommendation of the issue at the Neighborhoods/Community Affairs Committee (NCAC) at the September 24, 2012 meeting and approval on first reading by the Mayor and City Commission at its November 14, 2012 meeting. KEY INTENDED OUTCOME SUPPORTED Increase satisfaction with recreational programs. INTRODUCTION At the January 28, 2009, Commission meeting, the Administration requested the matter of dogs off-leash in City parks and other public properties in general, be referred to the Neighborhood/Community Affairs Committee for discussion. This initial Neighborhood/Community Affairs discussion was held on February 17, 2009. Since that time there have been ongoing discussions as to how the City can find the proper levels of services ' that address the needs of our residents and guests who own dogs with those who do not. These discussions have focused on the development of "bark parks" (fenced in areas in parks specifically designed and designated for dogs to run off leash): access for the dogs to water from a beach or park edge; the provision of dog bag/waste stations that are located throughout the city's parks, rights of way, Lincoln Road, the Beach walk and other public areas; and the establishment of off-leash access in the parks to areas which are unfenced/ unsecured where dogs would run off leash and beyond their owner's control. BACKGROUND There are presently total of five fenced dog parks and one designated off-leash area within the City's parks. These include Belle Isle, Flamingo, North Shore Open Space Park, Pinetree, South Pointe (un-fenced/off-leash area) and Washington Avenue (two sites). Ordinance Amendment To Chapter 10—Section 10-11 Running At Large Prohibited Second Reading/Public Hearing December 12, 2012 City Commission Meeting Page 2 of 5 One of the initial discussion issues focused on the development of a dog park within South Pointe Park, an enclosed area similar to the dog parks in Flamingo, Washington Avenue, Pinetree, or Belle Isle, or one without a fence. The conclusion of the discussion was to build-out a larger dog park on Washington Avenue, diagonal from the then-existing dog park on Collins Avenue and 2nd street. It was also recommended that the City look at whatever amendments would be needed to permit a pilot, off-leash area in a designated section of South Pointe Park, with limited hours of use. The designation of an off-leash area was not only prohibited by City Code, but it was also prohibited by County Code. Since the initial discussions in early 2009, there have been several Commission/Commission Committee discussions concerning dogs off leash in South Pointe Park and the existing pilot program resulting in various actions. Select actions are as follows: • September 9, 2009, the City Commission approved, on second reading, an Ordinance amending Chapter 10 of the Miami Beach Code entitled "Animals" to allow the City Commission to designate specific off-leash areas for dogs in public parks, specifically for South Pointe Park. The action established morning off-leash hours (park opening (sunrise) to 9:00 A.M.) only in a specific, unenclosed area of South Pointe Park located in the triangular area where the public art was scheduled to be sited (south and west of the Washington Avenue entry plaza). The item was amended to clarify that a South Pointe Park Dog Off-leash Pilot Program would be for a trial period of six months, commencing only if/when Miami-Dade County amended Section 5-20 of their Code pertaining to animals. At the time of the City Ordinance approval, County Code prohibited dogs off leash except in authorized park areas. • May 4, 2010, the Miami-Dade County Commission adopted the ordinance amendment at their Board of County Commissioners meeting amending Section 5-20 of their Code pertaining to animals. • June 10, 20101 the initial South Pointe Park Dog Off-leash Pilot Program began. • February 3, 2011, the Neighborhood/Community Affairs Committee held a discussion concerning the South Pointe Park Dog Off-leash Pilot Program and recommended extending the trial period, as well as adding two (2) additional hours in the evening on Monday through Friday only (hours to be determined). They also discussed the concept of adding a hedge to surround the off-leash area once it returns to its permanent area (from where it had to be moved when the Lighthouse art sculpture was being installed). It was concluded that the item would return to Committee after the installation of the public art, and if the off-leash program was approved to continue, to discuss whether the off-leash area should move back to the original site, or remain at the current location (portion of west lawn). • October 19, 2011, the City Commission approved an ordinance on second/final reading that extended the pilot off-leash program until January 1, 2012, and added two (2) hours in the evening from 5:00 P.M. To 7:00 P.M., Monday through Friday. • December 8, 2011, the Neighborhood/Community Affairs Committee discussed the continuation of the South Pointe Park Dog Off-leash Pilot Program. At the conclusion of the discussion the Committee recommended the program be extended until July 15, 2012. Ordinance Amendment To Chapter 10—Section 10-11 Running At Large Prohibited Second Reading/Public Hearing December 12, 2012 City Commission Meeting Page 3 of 5 • January 11, 2012, the City Commission approved an ordinance amendment on second reading to extend the South Pointe Park Dog Off-leash Pilot Program until July 15, 2012, modified the off-leash hours in the designated area in the morning from sunrise to 10:00 A.M. daily and between 4:00 P.M. and 7:00 P.M. Monday through Friday and relocated the off-leash area to the west lawn, south and east of the Washington Avenue entry plaza. The Commission also instructed the Administration to file an application to the Design Review Board (DRB) for the approval of a hedge in the newly established location. • March 6, 2012, the DRB held a hearing on the Administration's application for the approval of a hedge in the newly established location of the off-leash area in South Pointe Park. • March 13, 2012, DRB rendered an Order imposing conditions that effectively denied the Administration's request for a hedge by stating "there shall be no hedge to define the area" and the off-leash area "shall not be located in area #3, surrounding the arts in public places `lighthouse project'." • April 11, 2012, the City Commission approved a resolution setting a public hearing, pursuant to Section 118-262 of the City Code, requesting a review of the Design Review Board decision rendered on March 13, 2012 (DRB File No. 22894) pertaining to the design review approval for a hedge for a City Commission designated off-leash dog area within the western portion of South Pointe Park. • May 9, 2012, a City Commission item was introduced calling for a public hearing to consider the appeal of the Design Review Board Order in File No. 22894) pertaining to the design review approval for a hedge for a City Commission designated off-leash dog area within the western portion of South Pointe Park. In addition, a resolution setting forth an order (granting or denying) an appeal request by the City Manager of the City of Miami Beach, pertaining to a decision of the Design Review Board (DRB) for South Pointe Park was presented. At the conclusion of the discussion a motion was made by Vice-Mayor Libbin to continue the consideration of reversing the DRB Appeal to the June 6, 2012 Commission Meeting; seconded by Commissioner Exposito; Voice vote 6-1; Opposed: Commissioner Wolfson. • May 22, 2012, the N/CAC discussed the South Pointe Park Dog Off-leash Pilot Program and recommended it be extended again from July 15, 2012 through and until December 31, 2012. • June 6, 2012, the City Commission item, deferred from the May 9, 2012 Commission, calling for a public hearing to consider the appeal of the Design Review Board Order in File No. 22894) pertaining to the design review approval for a hedge for a City Commission designated off-leash dog area within the western portion of South Pointe Park was again introduced. In addition, a resolution setting forth an order (granting or denying) an appeal request by the City Manager of the City of Miami Beach, pertaining to a decision of the Design Review Board (DRB) for South Pointe Park was presented. Following a discussion the motion to support the appeal failed and the appeal of the DRB order was denied. • June 6, 2012, the City Commission approved an ordinance on first reading extending the South Pointe Park Dog Off-leash Pilot Program through and until December 31, 2012. Ordinance Amendment To Chapter 10—Section 10-11 Running At Large Prohibited Second Reading/Public Hearing December 12, 2012 City Commission Meeting Page 4 of 5 - ® July 18, 2012, the City Commission held the public hearing and approved the ordinance on second reading extending the South Pointe Park Dog Off-leash Pilot Program through and until December 31, 2012. Additionally, the Commission requested the matter be sent back to the Neighborhood/Community Affairs Committee to discuss in greater detail the number of documented violations that have transpired since the South Pointe Park Dog Off-leash Pilot Program began in June, 2010. ANALYSIS September 24, 2012 Neighborhood/Community Affairs Committee Discussion — South Pointe Park Dog Off-Leash Pilot Program The NCAC discussed the South Pointe Park Dog Off-leash Pilot Program at its September 24, 2012 meeting. The Administration advised the Committee that as stipulated by the City Commission action of July 18, 2012 and the Miami Beach City Code, the current South Pointe Park Dog Off-Leash Pilot Program is scheduled to terminate on December 31, 2012. If no action is taken the program will terminate. As any modification/code amendment to extend the pilot program requires two (2) Commission actions the Administration requested that the NCAC discuss the future of the South Pointe Dog Off-Leash Pilot Program and provide direction as to how to proceed. The Administration also provided information requested by the NCAC related to the number of documented instances of dogs off-leash in violation of the City's established times and/or location. It was reported to the Committee that monitoring reports maintained by Code Compliance and Security Alliance indicated that for the period of June, 2010 when the South Pointe Park Dogs Off-leash Pilot Program began, through August, 2012, there were 901 violations reported. Additional discussion was held. Commissioner Weithorn stated that although the dog owners that come to these meetings are responsible, she has observed that the dogs have expanded beyond the off-leash area to the entire cut walk, and she has been chased by dogs on at least twice. Commissioner Libbin stated that there are three options; including; 1. Do nothing. 2. Curtail the program completely. 3. Find a mechanism to allow the dogs to be off-leash in a controlled area. Commissioner Libbin then suggested bringing a new.initiative for a hedge to the Commission. At the conclusion of the discussion the Committee (Commissioners Tobin, Libbin and Exposito present) unanimously moved to bring the concept of a hedge for the off-leash dog area of South Pointe Park back to the City Commission and recommended extending the off-leash pilot program through January 31, 2013. November 14, 2012 City Commission Actions In response to the recommendation(s) of the NCAC Committee meeting held on September 24, 2012, the City Commission took the following actions at the November 14, 2012 City Commission meeting: A) Adopted Resolution No. 2012-28070, which accepted the NCAC Committee's recommendations to: Ordinance Amendment To Chapter 10—Section 10-11 Running At Large Prohibited Second Reading/Public Hearing December 12, 2012 City Commission Meeting Page 5 of 5 ➢ Bring the concept of a hedge for the off-leash dog area of South Pointe Park back to the City Commission, with the Commission further directing the Administration to file a new application for a hedge for the off-leash area to the Design Review Board as soon as possible; and ➢ Extend the off-leash pilot program through March 31, 2013. B) Amended and adopted the attached Ordinance on First Reading which extended the South Pointe Park Dog Off-Leash Pilot Program through and including March 31, 2013. CONCLUSION On November 14, 2012, the City Commission approved this ordinance as amended, on first reading extending dog off leash pilot program in South Pointe Park through and until March 31, 2013. It is presented for second reading and public hearing. This amendment is necessary to continue the off-leash program in South Pointe Park, as the current pilot program was scheduled to expire on December 31, 2012. It will permit the continuation of the program while the Administration files and presents a new application for a hedge in the off-leash area to the Design Review Board and reports the outcome back to the City Commission as directed.
