FROM: Jimmy L. Morales, City Manager
DATE: April 17, 2013
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE MAY AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, SET ING A PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER A
REVOCABLE PERMIT REQUEST BY THE UNGAR-MARSHALL COMPANY
RETAIL PROJECT (GAP STORE) LOCATED AT 1001 LINCOLN ROAD MIAMI

DIMENSIONS NOT TO EXCEED 6 FEET (6'-00") ALONG LINCOLN ROAD AND
MICHIGAN AVENUE AT A HEIGHT OF APPROXIMATELY 30 FEET (30'-00")
ABOVE THE SIDEWALK.
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION
The Administration recommends that the City Commission adopt the resolution setting a public
hearing to consider the revocable permit.
BACKGROUND
The property is zoned CD-3 and is located on the northwest corner of Lincoln Road and
Michigan Avenue, within the Flamingo Park Local Historic District. The existing building on the
property was identified as a historic structure that once served as the location of the Community
Theater, as well as a later redesigned storefront by Robert L. Weed.
On June 12, 2012, the Historic Preservation Board (HPB) granted a Certificate of
Appropriateness for demolition of the existing structure and the proposed design of a new retail
structure. The new building will include a metal canopy, 10'-4" above the sidewalk, and a
concrete eyebrow, 30 feet above the sidewalk, to reflect the architectural theme of the Robert L.
Weed design.
As approved, the canopy and eyebrow will project over the sidewalk of the Lincoln Road Mall
and Michigan Avenue; thus, they will encroach into the City's right-of-way on the south and the
east facades of the property, following the property line. Over ten feet of clearance will be
maintained between the canopy and the sidewalk grade to allow unimpeded pedestrian traffic.
City Commission Memorandum- 1001 Lincoln Road Revocable Permit
April 17, 2013
Page 2 of 3
The canopy projection over the sidewalk will not exceed five feet eleven inches (5'-11") along
Michigan Avenue and six feet (6'-00") along Lincoln Road, while the eyebrow projection will be
six feet (Attachments A, B, C, and D). A total of approximately 1500 square feet of the right-of-
way will be encroached upon by the canopy and eyebrow.
Ungar-Marshall Company (Applicant), as the owner of the property, has requested a revocable
permit for the construction and maintenance of the aforementioned canopy and eyebrow. Per
City Code Section 82-93, following submittal of the application for a Revocable Permit to the
Public Works Department, the Administration shall review the request and prepare a
recommendation, and the Commission shall consider setting a public hearing for consideration
of the proposed revocable permit.
ANALYSIS
Pursuant to the criteria established under Section 82-94 of the City Code for the
granting/denying of revocable permits, the City has concluded the following:
1) That the Applicant's need is substantial.
Satisfied. The Applicant's need has been established by the HPB approval of the design.
2) That the Applicant holds title to an abutting property.
Satisfied. The Applicant is the Owner of the property located at 1001 Lincoln Road.
3) That the proposed improvements comply with Applicable codes, ordinances, regulations,
and neighborhood plans and laws.
Satisfied. The Applicant has complied with all the regulatory requirements for design criteria.
4) That the grant of such application will have no adverse effect on government/utility
easements and uses of the property.
Satisfied. The encroachment (canopy and eyebrow) does not create a conflict with existing
government utilities and/or easements.
5) Alternatively:
a. That an unnecessary hardship exists that deprives the applicant of a reasonable use
of the land, structure or building for which the Revocable Permit is sought arising out
of special circumstances and conditions that exist, and were not self-created and are
peculiar to the land, structures or buildings in the same zoning district and the grant
of the application is the minimum that will allow reasonable use of the land, structure
or building.
b. That the grant of the revocable permit will enhance the neighborhood and/or
community by such amenities as, for example: enhanced landscaping, improved
drainage, improved lighting and improved security.
City Commission Memorandum- 1001 Lincoln Road Revocable Permit
April 17, 2013
Page 3 of 3
Satisfied. Granting this permit may be considered a neighborhood-enhancing
amenity since the canopy and eyebrow will provide pedestrians and bicyclists with
shade and protection from rain. This design has been the subject of extensive
discussion among neighbors, City officials, Planning staff, and the Miami Design
Preservation League and has been modified to incorporate input from stakeholders.
6) That granting the revocable permit requested will not confer on the applicant any special
privilege that is denied to other owners of land, structures or building subjected to similar
conditions.
Satisfied. Granting this permit will not provide special privileges to the applicant; any other
property owner may also apply for a Revocable Permit provided they meet the applicable
criteria, do not interfere with the safe utilization of any public ROW, and provide a
neighborhood amenity such as pedestrian shade.
7) That granting the revocable permit will be in harmony with the general intent and purpose of
Article III of the City Code, and that such revocable permit will not be injurious to
surrounding properties, the neighborhood, or otherwise detrimental to the public welfare.
Satisfied. The proposed canopy and eyebrow will not have an impact on surrounding
properties, will not devalue any adjacent properties, and will not have a detrimental effect to
the public welfare.
The Administration's analysis above shows that the above criteria established under Section 82-
94 of the City Code are satisfied. This application is also supported by the fact that the
eyebrows are part of the design that was approved by the HPB. The HPB considered the
canopy and eyebrow to be part of the best design solution for this project and to be consistent
with preserving the architectural theme of a Robert L. Weed design.
CONCLUSION
The Administration recommends that the City Commission adopt the attached resolution to
schedule a public hearing to consider approving the revocable permit.

Re: Revocable Permit Application in Connection with the Property Located at
1001 Lincoln Road—Letter of Intent
Dear Mr. Beckmann:
This law firm represents Ungar-Marshall Company ("Applicant"), the owner of
1001 Lincoln Road ("Property"). See Exhibit A (Survey). Please consider this letter the
Applicant's required letter of intent in conjunction with a revocable permit application
concerning the projection of an architectural element, an eyebrow, over the rights-of-
way of the City of Miami Beach ("City"). See Exhibit B (Sketch and Legal Description of
Area of Encroachments).
Description of the Proleriy and Surrounding Area. The Property is zoned CD-3
(Commercial, High Intensity) and is located on the northwest corner of Lincoln Road
and Michigan Avenue, within the Flamingo Park Local Historic District. The existing
building on the property was identified as a historic structure that once served as the
location of the Community Theater,as well as a later redesigned storefront by Robert L.
Weed. In June of 2012, the Historic Preservation Board granted a Certificate of
Appropriateness for demolition of the existing structure and design of a new retail
structure. The form and the articulation of the new building seek to recall elements of
the Robert L.Weed design.
The new retail structure is designed as a glass volume, with large expanses of
light limestone, underneath a floating roof canopy. The palette of materials bring
together modern finishes and technologies with materials that are reminiscent of those
that have always formed a part of the language of Lincoln Road,such as bronzed metals
and light limestone.

Fred Beckmann, Director

Page 2 of 4
A sizable portion of the stucco parapet that ran along the Lincoln Road fagade,
sweeping in a wide curve to Michigan Avenue, to end a short distance beyond, is
reinterpreted as a stone feature, following the location and scale of the original parapet,
but now also serving as a focus for the storefront display. A new eyebrow is also
situated to recall the height and position of the original eyebrow, but rather than being
in painted stucco, the eyebrow is now metal. Therefore, the proposed design
reintroduces the important elements of the existing building. The result is a dynamic
curve that brings you to the corner of the building, but also keeps a memory of what
was there.
Encroachments on Rights-of-Way. As approved,the Project contains an eyebrow
that minimally projects over the sidewalk fronting Lincoln and Michigan Avenues. The
City of Miami Beach owns these sidewalk areas. Therefore, the projection encroaches
into the airspace above the City's rights-of-way. A fixed horizontal eyebrow is located
on the south and east facedes of the property and is curved to follow the property line.
It is located over 10 feet above the sidewalk. As a result, the location of the eyebrow
represents no impediment to the follow of pedestrians. The eyebrow encompasses a
total area of 1,500 square feet into the ROW. The architectural element will be a critically
important feature of the storefront and will help reintroduce the historic portion of
Robert L.Weed's design.
Satisfaction of the Revocable Permit Criteria. The Applicant satisfies the criteria
for granting a revocable permit listed in the following subsections of the City of Miami
Beach Code("Code")Section 82-94.
(1) Applicant's Need Is Substantial.
The Applicant's need for the permit is substantial. The location of the proposed
building, which will not be set back from the property line, leaves no room for
architectural elements that define the historic background of the area. Further, in
permitting the demolition of the historic Community Theatre building, the HPB
required historic expression of its architecture. The new eyebrow will reintroduce one
of the primary elements of the historic portion of the building to be demolished,helping
to preserve memory of Robert L.Weed's design.
(2) Applicant Holds Title to an Abutting Property.
The Applicant holds title to the Property located at 1001 Lincoln Road.
(3) Proposed Improvements Comply with Regulations.

Fred Beckmann,Director
September 10,2012
Page 3 of 4
The Applicant will obtain any required building permits for the encroachments.
(4) Grant of Application Will Have No Adverse Effect on Governmental/
Utility Easements.
The narrow eyebrow will not impact any governmental or utility easements as it
is elevated over 10 feet above ground level.
(5) Alternatively: (a) Unnecessary Hardship Exists Depriving Applicant of
Reasonable Use of the Land Arising out of Special Circumstances, or (b)
Grant of Permit Will Enhance Neighborhood.
The Proposed design from Touzet Studio was a subject of much discussion
between the neighbors, City Officials, Planning Staff, and Miami Design Preservation
League.The architectural elements of the proposed landmark GAP store were carefully
revised and approved to certainly enhance the Flamingo Park Historic District and the
neighborhood.
(6) Granting Permit Does Not Confer Special Privileges.
Any property owner, especially one with a building placed at zero lot lines may
request a revocable permit for use of the adjacent rights-of-way. Therefore,granting the
permit will not confer any special privilege on the Applicant that would otherwise be
denied to others similarly situated in the same zoning district.
(7) Granting Permit Will Be In Harmony With Code and Not Injurious to
Surrounding Properties.
As stated above, the permanent architectural element satisfies all the Code
requirements. The eyebrow does not project significantly into the right-of-way and will
not impede pedestrian access. Also, it does not project into the surrounding private
properties. For these reasons, granting the permit will achieve harmony with the Code,
not be injurious to surrounding properties and will not in any way be detrimental to the
public welfare.
Summary. To address the hardship caused by the location of proposed building
and to satisfy the requirements of the HPB approval, the Applicant has proposed
modest encroachments over the City's right-of-way. The request is in harmony with the
intent and purpose of the Code, and will not be injurious to the area involved or
otherwise detrimental to the public welfare. Moreover, the encroaching architectural
element will help preserve and define the historic background of the area.
