ANALYSIS
On September 25, 2017, the City Commission adopted Resolution No. 2017-30021, approving a new
Design/Build contract with KVC Constructors, Inc. (KVC) for the Collins Park Parking Garage
structure, replacing the two existing street level parking lots.
The Collins Park Parking Garage will be constructed on three lots which lie between Park Avenue
and Liberty Avenue from 22nd Street to 23rd Street. The Miami City Ballet is located on a portion of
one of the three lots for which a unity of title was approved during the June 6, 2018 Commission
Meeting.
On June 11, 2018, the Historic Preservation Board (HPB) reviewed and continued the Application for
Certificate of Appropriateness for the design of the Collins Park Parking Garage to the meeting of
July 10, 2018. On July 10, 2018, the HPB approved the application. A waiver of the requirement to
have a full building permit for the demolition of the existing structure was also granted and the
Design/Build firm is moving forward with the demolition of the existing structure, the required site
remediation work, as well as utility planning.
In order to provide an efficient parking structure with functional parking bays, stalls, and ramps while
complying with the number of parking spaces specified in the City's design criteria for the project, the
required loading zone must be located within the right-of-way (Attachment A). In order to place the
loading zone within the right-of-way, it will be necessary to obtain a waiver of Section 130-101 B, of
the City of Miami Beach LDR:
Page 773 of 1637
Section 130-101 B, of the LDR states that for construction of new commercial buildings utilizing
enclosed structures for the storage and/or parking of vehicles, all required loading spaces shall be
located internally.
The design of the Collins Park Parking Garage places the loading zone on the east side of Park
Avenue, where it may be utilized by both the new parking garage and the Miami City Ballet.
The Cormnercial and retail spaces that are planned for the first level of the parking garage is
approximately 15,000 square feet. Two (2) parking spaces are necessary to comply with
Section 130-101 A(1) b., of the City Code, however, we will be providing three (3).
Additional freight loading zones in the immediate vicinity of the proposed parking garage are available
on the north side of 23rd Street between Dade Boulevard and Collins Avenue (Attachment B). Three
(3) loading zone spaces included as part of this project will bring the total number of loading zone
spaces in the immediate vicinity to eight.
Blocking of the right-of-way for loading or off-loading is prohibited pursuant to Section 82-151 of the
City Code. Violations may be issued by the Police, Code or Parking Departments for any infractions
within the right-of way. The City has protocol that monitors the freight loading zones. In the event that
a loading space is not available, vendors will be required to utilize another space or attempt loading
or off-loading at another time.
The Planning Department staff has reviewed the project, the waiver request and is in support of the
use of on-street loading spaces in lieu of locating them within the Parking Garage Structure.
The Collins Park Parking Garage site is currently zoned Government Use (GU), open to the general
public and, as per Section 142-425(d) of the City Code, the City Commission may waive by five
sevenths vote (5/7ths), following a duly noticed public hearing advertised in the newspaper at least
fifteen (15) days prior to the hearing, development regulations "pertaining to governmental owned or
leased buildings, uses and sites which are wholly used by, open and accessible to the general public,
or used by not-for-profit, educational, or cultural organizations, or for convention center hotels, or
convention center hotel accessory garages, or city utilized parking lots, provided they are continually
used for such purposes."
On July 25, 2018, the City Commission approved scheduling a Public Hearing to consider the waiver
of certain Development Regulations pursuant to Section 142-425 (d) of the Land Development
Regulations, after a duly noticed public hearing, advertised in the newspaper at least fifteen (15)days
prior to the hearing, a description of the request and the time and place of such hearing shall be
posted on the property, and notice be given by mail to the owners of land lying within 375 feet of the
property at least fifteen (15) days prior to the hearing, for the Collins Park Parking Garage. The
public hearing is scheduled for September 12, 2018.
On September 12, 2018, the City Commission deferred the public hearing to October 17, 2018.
