1IIIBREAS, pursuant to City of Miami Beach Request for proposal
No. 54-83, the City accepted the proposal of Carner Mason
Associates, Ltd. and subsequently entered into a Lease Agreement
for the lease and development of the Miami Beach Marina, the
Agreement dated June 24, 1983 (the "Marina Lease"); and
WHEREAS, Tallahassee Building Corporation acquired the
interest in the Marina Lease previously owned by Carner Mason and
is currently proceeding with improvements at the Marina, such
improvements including, but not limited to renovations to the
existing Marina Core Building and new construction of a Harbor
Master Building; and
1IIIBREAS, the designs for the renovations to the Marina Core
Building include maintaining the currently existing metal roof on
the building; and
1IIIBREAS, in order to be compatible with the existing design of
the Marina Core Building, the architect for the Harbor Master
Building also included a metal roof design on that structure as
well, such design approved by the Design Review Board on August 17,
1992; and
1IIIBREAS, City of Miami Beach Zoning Ordinance Section 5-11,
entitled "Roof Replacements", states in part that "[n] ew
construction of pitched roofs shall only be comprised of barrel
tile or cement tile... ."; and
1IIIBREAS, as applied to the design for the new construction of
the Harbor Master Building, compliance with this requirement would
therefore require the building to be erected with a building
material that would result in the structure being incompatible and
inconsistent with the metal roof of the neighboring Marina Core
Building; and
1IIIBREAS, Subsection 6-12(B) of the city's zoning Ordinance
authorizes the Mayor and City Commission to waive development
i'
II
regulations following a noticed public hearing7 and
1DIBRBAS, waiving the development regulations to allow the

would allow it to be architecturally consistent and compatible with
the Marina Core Building.

SUIOIARY
As the successor in interest to Carner Mason. . Associates i Ltd. I
Tallahassee Building corporation is currently preceding with
improvements at the Miami Beach Marina . These improvements include
renovating construction to the existing Core Building, which will
eventually house Nick's Restaurant, as well as the new construction
of a Harbor Master Facility. .
The renovations currently underway on the Core Building include
incorporating the existing metal roof therein. In order to be
aesthetically compatible and consistent with the design of the Core
Building therefore, the project's architect, Les Beilinson and
Associates, designed the Harbor Master Facility to also include a
metal roof -- that way, both neighboring structures would not only
be consistent but would compliment each other as well.
Because City of Miami Beach Zoning Ordinance Sect-ion 5-11 ("RoOf
Replacements") states that new construction of pitched .roofs must
be comprised of either barrel tile or cement tile", the proposed
metal roof for the Harbor Master Facility would therefore not be in
conformance. In an attempt to maintain the architects uniform
vision for both the Core Building and Harbor Master Facility, and,
additionally, to continue to expedite the City's compliance as to
the construction schedule set forth within the Miami Beach Marina
Lease Agreement, the Administration, through the Planning and
Zoning Department, would recommend that the City Commission waive
all pertinent development regulations, pursuant to Section 6-
12(B) (h) of the Zoning Ordinance which reads, in part
"following a public hearing, the development regulations
and any design review process otherwise required by this
Ordinance may be waived by a five-sevenths (5/7) vote of
the City commission for development pertaining to
Municipal Buildings, Uses and sites which are wholly used
by, open and accessible to the general public... ."
A public hearing requires that a thirty (30) day notice be given
and the notice be posted on the property, advertised in the
newspaper and mailed to all property owners within 375 ft.

CONCLUSION
The design for the Harbor Master Facility was presented to and
approved by the Design Review Board on August 17, 1992; with the
presentation incorporating and including the uses of the metal roof
design. In an attempt to not only encourage design uniformity for
both the Core Building and Harbor Master Facility, as well as
expediting this process in order to continue meeting the
construction schedule deadlines set forth in the Marina Lease, we
would recommend that the city commission proceed to schedule a
public hearing to waive all pertinent. development regulations
pursuant to 6-12(B) (h) of the zoning Ordinance to allow for the
construction of a metal roof for the Harbor Master Building located
at the Miami Beach Marina.
