Gonzalez \ l City Manager ~ A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, AUTHORIZING THE ADMINISTRATION TO CONTRACT WITH ONE OF THE SEVEN ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING FIRMS ON THE CITY'S ROTATIONAL LIST FORA FEE NOT TO EXCEED $25,000, APPROPRIATING SAID FUNDING FROM PARKING ENTERPRISE FUNDS, TO CONDUCT A SITE ANALYSIS AND DEVELOP A CONCEPT PLAN FOR THE 17th STREET AND WASHINGTON AVENUE SITE, INCORPORATING THE PROPOSED EXPANSION OF THE NEW WORLD SYMPHONY, AND IF UNSUCCESSFUL IN NEGOTIATING SUCH A CONTRACT, AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL TO CONDUCT SAME AND TO BE FUNDED BY PARKING ENTERPRISE FUNDS AND CITY CENTER TAX INCREMENT FUNDS. ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION Adopt the Resolution. ANALYSIS On January 5,1998, pursuant to the authorization of the City Commission, the Administration issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the development of public-private parking facilities in the area south of Dade Boulevard. The City issued the RFP in order to solicit qualified development teams to bid on certain publicly-owned sites identified in the RFP and/or to propose the development of parking on privately owned property. One ofthe public properties was the 17th Street and Washington Avenue site ("17th Street site"). On April I, 1998, pursuant to a discussion item requested by Commissioner Cruz, the City Commission directed the Administration to amend the RFP to remove the 17th Street site from the RFP due to its singular importance commanding the need for its own RFP. AGENDA ITEM JZ-. l D DATE b-l ~-OO T:\AGENDA \2000\OCT1800\REGULAR\17NWS.CM October 18, 2000 Commission Memorandum New World Symphony Page 2 Additionally, the Administration recommended that a professional planning process be undertaken for the subject site in order to determine its best long range use, and two other sites were identified as having similar important characteristics. Those sites being the preferred lot between 18th and 19th Streets on Convention Center Drive and the 72nd Street site in North Beach. It was further discussed that the previously mentioned planning process also apply to these two sites. The matter was referred to the Land Use and Development Committee. At the Land Use and Development Committee Meeting of April 13, 1998, the Administration described a planning process that would include a comprehensive review and evaluation of pertinent urban planning and economic development issues, and community and entertainment industry participation in the use assessment process. Examples of similar planning processes were described that had been successfully used in the City such as the site selection for the Library, the Bass Museum addition, the expansion of the Convention Center, the revitalization of Ocean Drive, and the Convention Hotel area. The Committee recommended that the City Commission direct the Administration to conduct a proper planning process and the City Commission accepted the Land Use and Development Committees recommendation on May 20, 1998. Thereafter, industry meetings and roundtable discussions occurred that resulted in a recommendation to the City Commission on July 20, 1998 to undertake the following: 1. Create a Steering Committee 2. Appropriate funding related to the study and RFP process (to be recouped upon award ofthe RFP). 3. Authorize the Administration to select and enter into contracts with professional consultants to assist with the process and the enclosed material. After a broad discussion, the City Commission concluded that the Administration should proceed to prepare a request for proposals for the 17th Street site, At the October 21, 1998 City Commission meeting, Michael Tilson Thomas, Artistic Director of the New World Symphony (NWS) addressed the City Commission. Mr. Thomas described the rapid growth and development of the NWS on a national and international scale. Due to the success of the NWS, the rehearsal, technology and workshop spaces within the Lincoln Theater on Lincoln Road is now limiting the exploration of innovative styles of performance and the development of new audiences. Mr. Thomas, State Representative Elaine Bloom, NWS Board member Joy Malakoff and President and CEO of the NWS, Chris Dunworth requested that the City Commission consider the expansion needs of the NWS in relation to the proposed RFP. The City Commission recognized the importance of such a valuable cultural institution and requested the Administration to amend the draft RFP to include the expansion needs of the NWS as part of same. T;\AGENDA \2000\OCTI800\REGULAR\I7NW8.CM October 18, 2000 Commission Memorandum New World Symphony Page 3 On November 4, 1999, the Mayor and City Commission adopted Resolution No. 98-22958 authorizing the issuance of a Request for Proposal (RFP) for a 5.86 acre PubliclPrivate Development Opportunity on the "17th Street Site", located between Washington and Pennsylvania Avenues, 17th Street to Lincoln Lane, immediately north of Lincoln Road. On February 17, 1999, the Mayor and City Commission voted to cancel and withdraw the RFP, Since the RFP was withdrawn, the subject site has been the subject of much staff discussion relative to increased parking needs, enhanced transportation linkages, urban design issues, historic district considerations, entertainment industry needs, convention center staging uses and other potential development proposals. On September 13, 2000, Vice-Mayor Nancy Liebman requested a referral to the Land Use Committee to discuss the New World Symphony's expansion plans and their request for a long- term lease. The NWS proposes to expand into the southwest comer of the surface lot on Pennsylvania Avenue and Lincoln Lane, directly behind the Lincoln Theater. The estimated $15 million expansion would occupy approximately a 32,000 sHoot print (1/3 of the site) and does not include any provisions for new/replacement parking. These plans are described in the attached report prepared by Project Core, Inc. Entitled "Soundspace at the New World Symphony", dated September 7, 2000, and call for the creation of a state-of-the-art facility for teaching, performance, broadcasting, rehearsals, special performance and related events. The NWS expansion proposal also contemplates a long-term lease which will be subject to the provisions of Section 82-36 through 82-40 of the City Code which requires that for the sale or lease of any City-owned property for a period of five years or more, is subject to the following conditions: . a Planning Department analysis . a public hearing to obtain citizen input . an advertised public bidding process . an independent appraisal to determine the fair market or rental value of the property Said Ordinance further provides that except for the public hearing and the Planning Department analysis, the above referenced conditions may be waived by a 5/7tJu vote of the City Commission upon a finding that the public interest would be served by waiving such conditions. As such, waivers will be required for the public bidding process and independent appraisal for this transaction, if fair market return is not required as part of the lease transaction. On September 18, 2000, the Land Use Committee adopted a motion recognizing the importance of the NWS and the importance of accommodating the expansion needs of the NWS, further recognizing the 17th Street and Washington Avenue site: a. As an important civic area which should be used for a significant public facility, b. To accommodate expansion needs ofNWS, and c. Recommended directing the Administration to prepare the necessary studies to assess the impact for other needs within the site. T:\AGENDA\2000\OCT1800\REGULAR\17NWS.CM October 18, 2000 Commission Memorandum New World Symphony Page 4 To accomplish the recommendations of the Land Use Committee, it is recommended that the Mayor and City Commission authorize the Administration to contract with one of the seven architectural and engineering firms on the City's rotational list for a fee not to exceed $25,000, appropriating said funding from Parking Enterprise Funds, to conduct a site utilization analysis and develop a concept plan for the 17th Street and Washington Avenue Site, incorporating the proposed expansion of the NWS, and if unsuccessful in negotiating such a contract, authorizing the issuance of a Request for Proposal to conduct same. The proposed scope of services and potential programming is described in Attachment A, which will be incorporated in the RFP. In accordance with Florida Statute 287.055, the City has contracted under the "Consultants' Competitive Negotiation Act", with 7 firms to conduct professional architectural/engineering services on a rotational basis such contracts were awarded pursuant to RFQ No. 110-96/98 and authorized pursuant to Resolutions 98-22748 and several resolutions adopted on July 15, 1998. Said firms can conduct studies for which the fee does not exceed $25,000. The cost of said study has not been determined but is estimated to cost between $25,000 - $50,000. The Administration will attempt to negotiate amongst the firms on the rotational list to perform the scope of services outlined in Attachment A, and if unsuccessful in negotiating such a contract, issue an RFP to conduct same. The anticipated schedule for this RFP and contract approval is as follows (if a contract can be negotiated with a firm on the rotational list, the study should be concluded in approximately 3-4 months less time): Negotiate Contract/RFP issuance approved by City Commission: RFP advertised: Mandatory pre-submission conference and tour: Proposals due: Presentation and Interviews: City Commission award: Negotiate and Contract with selected consultant: Study conducted and report concluded: Presentation to City Commission and subsequent Action/Direction: JMG/C~/rar October 18, 2000 November 2000 December 2000 January 2001 January 2001 February 2001 March 2001 June 2001 July 2001 T:\AGENDA\2000\OCTlgOO\REGULAR\17NWS.CM "ATTACHMENT A" SCOPE OF SERVICES SITE UTILIZATION ANALYSIS AND DEVELOPMENT OF A CONCEPT PLAN FOR THE 17TH STREET SURFACE PARKING LOTS OBJECTIVE To conduct a site analysis to identify development/programming opportunities for the two (2) City-owned parking lots located on 17th Street between Washington and Pennsylvania Avenues ("17th Street Site"). The City seeks to identify potential opportunities that will co-locate and complement the site's proximity to the cultural/convention/government civic center nucleus of the City, while being neighborhood friendly and enhancing the area's quality of life, and that specifically incorporate the New World Symphony's expansion plan. SCOPE OF SERVICES . Prepare Site Analysis that incorporates the following: 1. Evaluate current and future urban needs that could be accommodated on the site. 2. Recommendations on optimal programming for the site that takes into account surrounding developments, as well as government, convention and civic center needs. 3.

Identify opportunities for gateway entrance features, recognizing this important entryway to the government/convention/civic center area. . Identify impact on Parking System to satisfy Bond covenants. NEW WORLD SYMPHONY EXPANSION PROPOSAL Pursuant to the Interim Report prepared by Project Core Inc., entitled "Soundspace at the New World Symphony", dated September 7, 2000, and attached hereto, describes the New World Symphony's proposed expansion into the west surface parking lot north of the Lincoln Theater. These plans call for the creation of a state-of-the-art facility for teaching, performance, broadcasting, rehearsal and special performance and related events. Space requirements include approximately 30,000 square feet depending on acoustical issues. This request represents at least 1/3 ofthe area of the west lot, displacing approximately 80 parking spaces. SITE DESCRIPTION AND HISTORY The 17th Street Site is uniquely situated at the north edge of the City's Central Business District, at 500 17th Street. It encompasses two city blocks that are bounded by 17th Street on the North, Washington Avenue on the East, Lincoln Lane on the South, and Pennsylvania Avenue on the West; Drexel Avenue passes north/south through the middle of the site. It is surrounded on its northeast, southeast and southwest quadrants by the National Register (Art Deco) Historic District, designated in 1979 by the National Park Service; only the northwest quadrant is not bounded by this historic district. In addition, the 17th Street Site is located in the center of the Historic Convention Village Redevelopment and Revitalization Area, which was designated in 1993 as a Community Redevelopment Area. Today, the 17th Street Site substantially serves the Jackie Gleason Theater of the Performing Arts (TOPA), the Lincoln Road Mall, including the New World Symphony (Lincoln Theater), and the Miami Beach Convention Center. Of significant note, however, the West portion of the 17th Street Site also provides, from time to time, an important exhibition staging lot for major events at the Convention Center; in particular, the Miami International Boat Show. CURRENT ZONING STATUS The 17th Street Site is currently zoned CCC Civic and Convention Center District, whose purpose is to accommodate the facilities necessary to support the Convention Center. Main permitted uses include parking lots, garages, performing arts and cultural facilities, hotels, merchandise marts, commercial or office development, landscape open space and parks. The existing maximum height limit is currently 100 feet or eleven (11) stories. The allowable Floor Area Ratio (FAR) is 2.75. DEVEI,OPMENT AND DESIGN PARAMETERS The development of the 17th Street Site will substantially define the image of Miami Beach's central business district (CBD) for many decades to come; consequently, this development must be considered with the greatest care. The 17th Street Site is the single largest, most strategically located tract of open public land available for development in South Beach. It occupies more than five acres at the intersection of two of the City's primary transportation corridors, 17th Street to the north and W ashington Avenue to the 2 east. This unique location makes the site almost equally accessible to the Atlantic Ocean beaches, the Collins Avenue hotel district, the rapidly redeveloping Lincoln Road Mall, including the Lincoln Theater, the Washington Avenue commercial corridor, the Jackie Gleason Theater of the Performing Arts (TOPA), the Convention Center, the emerging Bass Museum/Cultural Arts Campus, major religious sites, including the Holocaust Memorial, Temple Emanuel, and City Hall as well as Miami Beach's all important National Register (Art Deco) Historic District. City Officials and residents alike are aware of the substantial challenge that development ofthis pivotal site will present. CURRENT SITE FUNCTIONS AND ADJACENT URBAN RELATIONSHIPS In defining the successful future development opportunities for the 17'h Street Site, the following current site functions and established urban relationships must be carefully understood and reconciled in any recommended programming: Site Functions ~ Primary Municipal Parking for Jackie Gleason Theater and New World Symphony ~ Special Staging Area Miami Beach Convention Center ~ Secondary Parking for Lincoln Road Mall Businesses and Miami Beach Convention Center Established Adjacent Urban Relationships of Major Significance ~ Washington Avenue and Lincoln Road Retail and Commercial/Office Corridors ~ Lincoln Road Restaurant, Gallery, and Entertainment District ~ Fashion, Film, Music, Television and New Media Office Space ~ Public Art, Artists, and Artists Support Facilities on the Lincoln Road Corridor ~ The National Register (Art Deco) Historic District ~ Collins Avenue Hotel District ~ Atlantic Ocean Beaches ~ Multi-Modal Transportation Transfer Point (Metro-Dade Buses, Electro-Wave and Taxis) at the Crossroad of 17th Street and W ashington Avenue CURRENT AND FUTURE URBAN NEEDS AND POTENTIAL PROGRAMMING ~ Enhanced Parking for TOPA, the Convention Center, the New World Symphony, Lincoln Road, and the Collins Avenue Hotel District ~ Strategic Periodic Staging Areas for the Convention Center ~ Expanded Support Facilities for the expanding Music, Film and Television Production Industries ~ Class "A" Office Space adjacent to the heart of the City's "downtown" business area ~ Visitor and Tourism Information Center serving the National Register (Art Deco) Historic District, Convention Center, TOPA and the New World Symphony, Bass Museum and Cultural Arts Campus, Lincoln Road Mall, Washington Avenue and 3 Espanola Way, Holocaust Memorial and Religious Sites, Garden Center/Conservatory, Electro-Wave and Public Transportation Systems, and the Atlantic Ocean Beaches ~ Inter-Modal Transportation Hub Facilities providing for local park and ride connections to multi-modal transportation systems and various City destinations ~ Expansion of Lincoln Road Artist Studios and Support Facilities that nourish the City's cultural life ~ CommerciallRetail Link or Anchor from 17th Street to Lincoln Road along Washington Avenue ~ Facilitating vehicular and especially pedestrian movement that links the Convention Center to Lincoln Road Mall Myriad factors will influence and shape the design of an appropriate project development program on the 17th Street Site; certain of these factors, however, are of such import to the future success of the City's Central Business District that they are elaborated upon in further detail as follows: NATIONAL REGISTER (ART DECO) HISTORIC DISTRICT Although the 17th Street Site was not included within the boundaries of the National Register Historic District at the time it was designated in 1979, the Historic District bounds the Site on three sides and is one ofthe most important contextual relationships to be addressed. Arguably, the National Register (Art Deco) Historic District has been, and continues to be the single most tangible influence fueling the City's extraordinary resurgence as a design and tourism mecca. The City Commission, the Administration, Residents, Visitors, and Design Professionals alike will be closely watching any development proposed for the 17th Street Site; they will be measuring all proposals not only for their functional merit but also for their sensitivity to Miami Beach's National Register Historic District and the City's design legacy. The City Administration as well as the Historic Preservation and Design Review Boards have clearly signaled their ongoing interest in preserving the special urban character of the Beach while advancing its cutting edge design continuum well into the future. Due to the shear magnitude of the 17th Street Project, and its anticipated impact on the Central Business District and adjacent Historic District, all recommended programming must be clearly in tune with the unique character, urban scale and materials of Miami Beach. All recommended designs must strive to distill and advance the essence of Miami Beach's tropical design tradition, as seen throughout the National Register District as well as elsewhere in the City. This does not mean that the architecture should be Art Deco; to the contrary, it means that the architecture must respect the significance of Art Deco as well as other succeeding design movements in Miami Beach Recommended design concepts must seek to produce the finest design of its time within its urban environment, imbued with the spirit and optimism that is the hallmark of Miami Beach. 4 PARKING AND CONVENTION CENTER STAGING USES AND REOUlREMENTS The 17th Street Site must increase the existing supply of parking and address current deficiencies as well as new parking requirements for the new-programmed uses. Preferably, proposed site development will enhance the amount of parking currently available. This is critical, as there are 5 - 6 Convention Center shows armually that require maxed out parking for the lots as presently configured. As Convention business in Miami Beach increases proportional to Consumer Show use, parking requirements will probably level off, but they still remain a high priority. The primary parking use of the 17th Street Site at this time, however, is for the Jackie Gleason Theater. These lots are TOP A's primary parking, and typically valet plus those lots handle the vast majority of theater needs, leaving the Preferred Lot (on the west side of Convention Center Drive) as well as the 17th Street Municipal Garage available for normal Convention Center use. A recent review by the City's Parking Director offers the following observations and comments that must be given special consideration: Current 17th Street Site Parking Uses ~ Monthly decal parkers (general parking) ~ TOP A Parking for all events ~ New World Symphony Parking (Lincoln Theater) for all events ~ Transient Parking for customers, clients and visitors to Lincoln Road Other Current 17th Street Site Uses ~ Staging for the International Boat Show. The 5-A West Lot has provided an efficient and effective way to marshal large yachts and other vessels into the Convention Center; prior to the use of this lot, marshaling and holding took place on the Preferred Lot, on the West side of the Convention Center, but this resulted in serious traffic jams at the intersection of Meridian Avenue and Dade Boulevard. ~ Park and Ride Lot for the Electro-Wave and Special Events, such as Art Deco Weekend, the Kite Festival, and Carnival. Parking Revenue ~ Current Parking Revenues derived from the lih Street Site are pledged to Parking Revenue Bonds; these revenues are substantial and include the following: . Monthly Decal Parkers at $50/month = $225,795 armually . Transient Parking = $1,352,299 armually Future development recommendations must ~ address regular payment to the City's Parking Department for any amount that these lots currently receive in revenue, inclusive of a reasonable revenue escalation clause for future years 5 ~ provide at a minimum 300 spaces for Monthly Decal Parkers to avoid placing an unbearable strain on the remainder of parking along the Lincoln Road corridor ~ provide parking at a (negotiated) flat rate for TOPA and Lincoln Theater clients that collected on entry to the parking in order allow for efficient exiting following shows ~ provide a facility, an accommodation or an acceptable arrangement, for the effective and efficient marshaling of large vessels or other cumbersome exhibition items during major Consumer Shows at the Convention Center, such as the International Boat Show L:\CMGR\AGENDA\2000\Oct1800\REGULAR\17th Street Site Analysis 2.doc 6 u . >- " o ... ~ " u s >- <: Vl Cl.
