ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION
The Administration recommends approving the Resolution.
BACKGROUND
At its September 11, 2013 meeting, the City Commission adopted Resolution No. 2013-28343,
approving the vacation of the alley located in the 500 block of Alton Road, in favor of the
adjacent property owners, South Beach Heights I, LLC, 500 Alton Road Ventures, LLC, and
1220 Sixth, LLC to construct the "Waves" Project (also referred to herein as the 600 Alton
Project or the Project), a mixed-use development (the "Vacation").
As a condition of the granting of the Vacation, one of the applicants, 500 Alton Road Ventures,
LLC (500 Alton or the Applicant), agreed to grant the City an easement over a portion of
property owned by 500 Alton (the "Property") which, in part, also requires 500 Alton to design
and install stormwater improvements consisting of subterranean storage tanks providing
storage for at least 287,980 gallons (to be situated on the Property). Upon construction of the
stormwater improvements, 500 Alton will also be responsible for the continued management
and maintenance of the improvements; the City would be granted an easement to inspect the
facilities to ensure proper maintenance. On October 29, 2013, the City and 500 Alton Road
Ventures, LLC entered into a Grant of Easement and Agreement for Stormwater and
Transportation Improvements (the Agreement), memorializing the parties' respective

500 Alton Road Alley - Memo
December 17, 2014
Page 2 of 2
The City is now in need of an additional area in which to locate a stormwater pump station and
related generator, as well as storm drainage pipes, in order to facilitate the drainage in the area
adjacent to the southern end of West Avenue. This portion of the City has one of the lowest
elevations City-wide and additional stormwater resources are needed. Unfortunately, there .is
very limited area available in the public right-of-way. Therefore, locating the facility on adjacent
private property owned by 500 Alton would be the best solution.
Public Works staff and the Applicant, 500 Alton, have been in discussions to amend the
Agreement, to expand the area defined in such Agreement as the "Property to allow for the
aforestated improvements." The amended Agreement will provide for the following:
1. provide the City with a permanent underground utility easement along the southwest
corner of the 600 Block (along West Avenue and 6th Street), to allow the City to install a
pump station with additional storm drainage pipes along that street edge;
2.. provide the City with a subterranean generator for the proposed pump station with the
capacity to operate two pumps;
3. provide and maintain the landscaping and/or hardscape over the expanded Property
area; and
4. provide the City with soil excavated from the Project development for the City's use to a
location to be determined by the City.
The City will install and maintain the stormwater pump station. Furthermore, the City would
permit the stormwater generated by the Property to discharge into the City's line on 7th Street.
CONCLUSION
The Administration recommends approving the Resolution.
