COMMISSION MEMORANDUM NO. ~~
TO:
Mayor Neisen O. Kasdin and
Members of the City Co ission
DATE: April 14, 1999
FROM: Sergio Rodriguez
City Manager
SUBJECT: A RESOLU ON TO SET A FIRST PUBLIC HEARING ON MAY 12, 1999
TO CONSIDER A PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT TO BE
ENTERED INTO BETWEEN MIAMI CITY BALLET (MCB) AND THE
CITY OF MIAMI BEACH (CMB) IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
REQUIREMENTS OF THE FLORIDA LOCAL GOVERNMENT
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT ACT FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 2200
LIBERTY AVENUE, MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Commission adopt the Resolution setting a first public hearing on
May 12, 1999 to consider the Development Agreement.
BACKGROUND:
On January 6, 1999, the City Commission authorized execution of the Third Amendment to the
Ground Lease between the City of Miami Beach (CMB) and the Miami City Ballet (MCB). On
February 17, 1999, the Administration presented a report on parking, identifying alternatives for the
MCB to address their parking requirements for the facility under construction at the Cultural
Campus. At this meeting, the City Commission directed the Administration to negotiate an
agreement with the MCB setting forth certain time lines and parameters to meet the MCB's legal
parking requirements.
On March 5, 1999, City staff met with representatives of the MCB to discuss the proposed
agreement. It was determined, based on further legal review, that the most prudent course of action
would be to enter into a Development Agreement. Florida Statutes 163.3225 requires that at least
two public hearings be held before entering into a Development Agreement.
ANAL YSIS:
In accordance with the Florida Local Government Development Agreement Act, MCB and CMB
would enter into a Development Agreement that would clarify that the MCB is governed under the
provisions of the former zoning code as a result of their building permit being issued in September
1998. The Development Agreement will also address:
AGENDA ITEM C, 1 L
DATE~
. time lines to meet the MCB's legal parking requirements;
. the provision of discounted parking, as provided in Section 27.02 of the Ground Lease;
. the number of parking spaces to be provided, as set forth in Section 27.02 of the Ground
Lease;
. the proposed location of the spaces to be provided by the City within 1,000 feet of the new
ballet facility, as provided in Section 27.02 of the Ground Lease;
. coordination of completion of the surface parking lots on the King and Fruitstand parcels and
the MCB's potential use of these spaces prior to completion of the library facility; and
. a provision for no waiver of rights by either the City and/or the MCB.
The City Commission must hold two public hearings to enter into a Development Agreement. This
resolution would set the first public hearing for May 12, 1999. A draft agreement is being
prepared; and, if the Commission approves the resolution setting the hearings, the agreement will
be presented in the packet of the May 12, 1999 City Commission meeting.
CONCLUSION:
The Administration recommends approval of the resolution setting the Public Hearing for
consideration of a Development Agreement between MCB and CMB to address parking
requirements for the building located at 2200 Liberty Avenue.
