ANALYSIS
The City of Miami Beach Parking Department received petitions from residents of the
Lake Pancoast, West Avenue, and Flamingo Park (500 block of Espanola Way),
respectively, requesting the establishment of restricted residential parking zone for their
respective neighborhoods. The Parking Department has surveyed the area and
formulated recommendations for review by residents of each of the respective
neighborhoods.
Three publicly noticed workshops were held with residents of each ofthe affected areas
on three consecutive Wednesday evenings on August 13th, 20th, and 27th, 2003, for
Lake Pancoast, Flamingo Park (500 block of Espanola Way), and West Avenue,
respectively. Notices were distributed in all three neighborhoods to residents within 375
feet of the affected areas. Participants had an opportunity to review, comment, and
provide input towards the recommendations for each program. In all three cases, a
majority of the residents in attendance concurred with the recommendations which
included various adjustments that arose from public comment and input. A vote was
held at each workshop and in all three cases, a majority voted to proceed with the
establishments of said programs. Subsequently, the Administration sent notices to all
residents within 375 feet of each of the affected areas advising that the City's TPC
(Transportation and Parking Committee) would review this issue on Tuesday, October
7, 2003. The TPC reviewed the Administration's recommendations regarding Lake
Pancoast, West Avenue, and the 500 block of Espanola Way. Upon review, public
comment, and discussion amongst the Committee members, the TPC endorsed the
Lake Pancoast residential program and the amendments to the existing Residential
Parking Permit Zone Two (Flamingo Park) expansion which would include the 500
block of Espanola Way. However, after lengthy discussion, debate, and input from
affected residents, the TPC deferred the West Averiue Residential Program for a period

provide more information regarding [parking] utilization in the area and (2) hold a
second workshop with affected residents and neighboring commercial corridors (Alton
Road, Lincoln Road, etc.). The Administration will proceed with these
recommendations and return to the TPC in December, 2003 and present its findings.
Therefore, pursuant to Article II, entitled, "Metered Parking", of the Miami Beach City
Code, Chapter 106-78, entitled, "Creation of residential parking area", the Mayor and
City Commission must hold a public hearing to consider the establishment of a
residential zone for the Lake Pancoast neighborhood and the amendments to the
existing program for Flamingo Park (500 block of Espanola Way).

5:01 P.M. on Tuesday, November 25, 2003, and the City Clerk should publish
