Ca C~y Manager SUBJECT: TRANSMITTAL OF DRAFT 1994 AMENDMENT TO CITY OP MIAMI BEACH YEAR 2000 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN TO THE STATE OF PLORIDA 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 aud 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. 1 AGI~~~~ _ '3 -A DATE~- ~-q4 '. , ' '. . . 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 rev~s~ons 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 projects.. 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. 2 c:ml\generat\trncompln.cm - 2 -
