FROM: Roger M. Ca
City Manager
SUBJECT: TRANSMITTAL OF DRAFT 1994 AMENDMENT TO CITY OF MIAMI
BEACH YEAR 2000 ' COMPREHENSIVE PLAN TO THE STATE OF
FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY AFFAIRS. •
RECOMMENDATION
The Administration recommends that the City Commission, upon
holding a public hearing, transmit the Draft 1994 Amendment to the
City's Comprehensive Plan to the Florida Department of Community
Affairs (DCA) for its review and comment. It should be noted that
this transmittal does not constitute an adoption of the document.
Once the City receives comments from the DCA and relevant agencies,
the draft document may be amended further in response to said
comments. At 'the completion of the review and response process,
the City Commission will hold two public hearings (first and second
reading) to adopt this amended plan. These hearings are
anticipated to occur in the spring of 1994 .
BACKGROUND
The document before the City Commission for consideration of
transmittal to the State, represents a collaborative effort of the
City's planning consultant, Robert K. Swarthout, Inc. and the
Planning, Design and Historic Preservation Division staff. The
Miami Beach Planning Board, acting as Local Planning Agency, voted
5-0 to recommend transmittal to the State, upon holding a public
hearing on December 2, 1993. The Board recommended certain changes
to the policies, goals and objectives, which are enumerated in a
separate document, "Changes to the Miami Beach Comprehensive Plan
Recommended by the Local Planning Agency, 12/2/93" , as well as
several changes to the Future Land Use Map.
The development of this plan amendment began in July of 1992 with
a visioning process which included in-depth one-on-one interviews
with over. 40 community leaders, resulting in a "Community Visions,
Goal, Objective and Policy Options Report. " A principal component
of that report was an analysis of several down-planning mild related
down-zoning options throughout the City. The consultant
subsequently met with City departments to gain a further
understanding of necessary changes to the plan, in addition to
reviewing and analyzing updated data from the Census, Florida
Department of Transportation and other relevant sources. David A.
Frank, another planning consultant, assisted in the preparation of
the amendment to the Capital Improvement Element. City staff
updated the Procedures for Public Participation, Monitoring and
Evaluation, and the Historic Preservation Element.

AGENDA
ITEM /"�
DATE - 40-9 l q
City staff held three town meetings during September of 1993 to
gain further citizen input and ideas on possible changes to the
Comprehensive Plan, not only in regard to future land use changes,
but goals and policies.
ANALYSIS
As summarized in the Executive Summary, the plan revisions reflect
numerous policy changes recommended by the Miami Beach Planning,
Design and Historic Preservation Division, including those with
respect to down planning of significant areas on the Future Land
Use Map. The plan revision also reflect changes necessitated by the
fact that many of the policies of the 1989 Comprehensive Plan have
already been implemented by subsequent development code changes or
completed capital improvement project`s._ Finally, the plan
revisions reflect changes necessitated by 1993 amendments to
Florida's growth management statute.
The following documents are provided to the Commission regarding
the amendment to be transmitted to the State:
1. Executive Summary. •
2 . Draft "1994 Amendment to City of Miami Beach Year 2000
Comprehensive Plan. "
3 . Changes to the Miami Beach Comprehensive Plan Recommended by
the Local Planning Agency 12/2/93 .
4. Summary of public comments made at the Miami Beach Local
Planning Agency Public Hearing 12/2/93 .
5. Proposed Future Land Use Map
6. Annotated Version of Future Land Use Map indicating proposed
changes of land use.
CONCLUSION
The Administration has concluded that the Draft Amendment to the
Comprehensive Plan represents an important step forward in charting
the future development of this City and that the Commission should
proceed to transmit said document to the Florida Department of
Community Affairs for review and comment.
