Approve the Resolutions.
BACKGROUND
On June 20, 1997, the Portofino Entities advised the City of Miami
Beach and the Miami Beach Redevelopment Agency that the 1995
Development Agreement was terminated, since the required "final
approvals" were not obtained.
The 1995 Development Agreement contained the following provisions
in the event final approval were not obtained:
Section 5.3 (f) Treatment of SSDI North if Final Approvals Not
Obtained. In the event this Agreement is
terminated by West Side and East Coastline because
the required Final Approvals are not timely
obtained, then, in addition to the Initial Closing
and Second Closing, which shall be consummated
under this Agreement notwithstanding the failure to
obtain the Final Approvals, and anything else
herein to the contrary notwithstanding:

(vii)
The City and Redevelopment Agency shall
cooperate with any necessary DRI modifications
to conform with West Side's development rights
under the existing Development Agreement as
modified hereby.
The Portofino Entities are requesting that the City
Commission/Redevelopment Agency Board adopt Resolutions calling
public hearings to review the Proposed Alternative Portofino DRI
and the Amended Miami Beach Marina DRI pursuant to Section
380.06(11), Florida Statutes.
The Alternative Portofino DRI and Amended Miami Beach Marina DRI
are intended to be processed pursuant to Section 380.06, Florida
Statutes; however, the Portofino Entities have not withdrawn
consideration of the Original Amended DRI whi8h has been deferred
until December 17, 1997 and January 21, 1998. At the time the
Original Amended DRI and the Alternative DRI are brought before the
Ci ty Commission/Redevelopment Agency Board for final approval,
the Portofino Entities must choose which DRI to pursue at such
hearings.
ANALYSIS
Section 380.06(11), Florida Statutes, requires that upon notice
from the regional planning agency (in this instance, the South
Florida Regional Planning Council), the City Commission at the next
scheduled meeting, set for public hearing the review of such DRI
approvals. The hearing must be advertised at least 60 days in
advance of the hearing and no later than 90 days after issuance of
the notice by the regional planning agency that a public hearing
may be set.
On October I, 1997, the South Florida Regional Planning Council
transmitted a letter to Mayor Gelber stating that the Miami Beach
City Commission shall set a public hearing to consider the
alternative Portofino DRI in accordance with state law. Section
380.06 (11), Florida Statutes, also requires that the notice of
public hearing be transmitted to the Florida Department of
Community Affairs and the South Florida Regional Planning Council,
along with a copy of the advertised notice.
