Recommendation
It is recommended that the Board approve:
The attached City Center/Historic Convention Village
Redevelopment and Revitalization Area Plan.
The delegation of redevelopment powers under Chapter 163,
Florida statutes except those specifically identified in the
resolution.
The attached Interlocal Cooperation Agreement between Dade
County and the City of Miami Beach which establishes terms
and conditions, including the county and City responsibi-
lities for the implementation of the City Center/Historic
Convention Village Redevelopment and Revitalization Area
Plan.
Backaround
In 1969, the Florida Legislature enacted the Community
Redevelopment Act of 1969 as is presently contained in Part III
of Chapter 163, Florida statues, as amended (The "Act"). The Act
authorizes counties and municipalities in the state of Florida to
create community redevelopment agencies, to prepare redevelopment
plans for certain defined areas within their boundaries,
designated as community redevelopment areas and to delegate
redevelopment powers at the discretion of the County, after a
finding has been made determining that slum or blight exists
within a defined area.
On January 26, 1993, the Board by Resolution No. R-14-92, found
the City center/Historic Convention Village Redevelopment and
Revitalization Area to be a slum or blighted area and delegated
certain redevelopment powers consistent with the Act to City of
Miami Beach so that the city could proceed with the creation of a
community Redevelopment Agency and the preparation of a
Redevelopment Plan for said area.
\
Honorable Mayor and Members
Board of County Commissioners
Page 2
The city has prepared a Redevelopment Plan which was adopted by
the City Commission on February 12, 1993 (Resolution No.
93-20721). County staff has reviewed this plan and found it to
be consistent with the Act and the County's Comprehensive Master
Plan and, therefore, recommends its approval by the Board.
In order to implement the Redevelopment Plan, the City commission
has requested that all redevelopment powers under the Act be
delegated to it by the Board. Said delegation is to be granted
by this Board and formalized through an inter local agreement
between the County and the City. County staff has reviewed this
request and recommends that every redevelopment power under the
Act, except those pertaining to approval of annual budgets and
the amount, duration and purpose of any bonds, notes, etc. for
the Redevelopment Area pledging or otherwise obligating tax
increment funds, and amendments to the redevelopment plan, be
delegated to the City of Miami Beach.

Section 1. The foregoing recitations are deemed true and
correct and are hereby incorporated as a part of this resolution.
Section 2. This Board hereby accepts the delivery of the
Plan delivered to it by the City Commission. This Board hereby
tinds and determines that:
(a) The redevelopment of the Redevelopment Area is
necessary in the interest of the public health, safety,
morals, and welfare of the residents of the City of Miami
Beach and in the interests of implementing Part III of

(c) The Plan conforms to the comprehensive plan of the
City of Miami Beach and the County as a whole.
(d) The Plan gives due consideration to the provision
of adequate park and recreational areas and facilities that
may be desirable for neighborhood improvement, with special
consideration for the health, safety, and welfare of
children residing in the general vicinity of the site
covered by the Plan.
(e) The Plan will afford maximum opportunity,
consistent with the sound needs of Dade County and the City
of Miami Beach as a whole, for the rehabilitation or
redevelopment of the Redevelopment Area by private
enterprise.
(f) To the extent that the Redevelopment Area consists
of an area of open land to be acquired by the City of Miami
Beach or the Redevelopment Agency so as to be developed for
residential uses, such areas may be acquired because it is
hereby determined that: (i) a shortage of housing of sound
standards and design which is decent, safe, affordable to
residents of low or moderate income, including the elderly,
and sanitary exists in the City of Miami Beach, (ii) the
need for housing accommodations has increased in the
Redevelopment Area, (iii) the conditions of blight in the
Redevelopment Area or the shortage of decent, safe,
affordable, and sanitary housing cause or contribute to an
increase in and spread of disease and crime and constitute a
menace to the public health, safety, morals or welfare, and

(iv) the acquisition of the area for residential uses is an
integral part of and is essential to the project set forth
in the Plan.
(g) With respect to any open areas in the
Redevelopment Area which are to be acquired so as to be
developed for non-residential uses, such non-residential
uses are necessary and appropriate to facilitate the proper
growth and development of the community in accordance with
sound planning standards and local community objectives, and
acquisition may require the exercise of governmental action
as provided in Part III of Chapter 163, Florida statutes,
because of:
1. Defective, or unusual conditions of, title or
diversity of ownership which prevents the free
alienability of such land;
2. Tax delinquency;
3. Outmoded street patterns;
4. Deterioration of site;
5. Economic disuse;
6. Unsuitable topography or faulty lot layouts;
7. Lack of correlation of the Redevelopment Area
with other areas of the City of Miami Beach by streets
and modern traffic requirements; or
8. Any combination of such factors or the other
conditions set forth in the Plan which retard
development of the area.

the interest of the public health, safety, morals, and welfare of

Subject:
A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND C COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA ACCEPTING THE
RECOMMENDATION OF THE MIAMI BEACH REDEVELOPMENT
AGENCY AND APPROVING AND ADOPTING AN AMENDMENT TO
THE CITY CENTER HISTORIC CONVENTION VILLAGE
REDEVELOPMENT AND REVITALIZATION AREA PLAN, AN
APPROVED REDEVELOPMENT PLAN UNDER THE PROVISIONS
OF SECTION 163.360, FLORIDA STATUTES; SAID AMENDMENT
PROVIDING THAT THE PLAN INCORPORATE BY REFERENCE THE
PROPOSED MASTER PLAN FOR THE 17TH STREET SURFACE
LOTS, PREPARED BY ZVSCOVICH, INC., ON SEPTEMBER 21,
2001, AND REVISED ON MAY 16, 2002.
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the Resolution.
ANALYSIS
Section 163.361, Florida Statutes, provides that the governing body of the Redevelopment
Agency may amend the Redevelopment Plan from time to time, upon recommendation of
the Agency. The Administration believes it is opportune to amend the City Center/Historic
Convention Village Redevelopment Area Plan in order to reflect existing conditions and
future plans for the area as contemplated by the master planning initiative underway by
Zyscovich, Inc.
Redevelopment Plan Update
On April 18, 2001, the City Commission authorized the Administration to enter into contract
with Zyscovich, Inc., (Consultant), to develop a concept plan for the 17th Street and
Washington Avenue surface parking lots, incorporating the proposed expansion ofthe New
World Symphony (NWS). Due to the significance of this site and the impact of future
development alternatives contemplated thereon, the Consultant's scope was expanded to
evaluate the site in the context of its importance to the surrounding core area of the City
and to develop an updated Master Plan for City Center/Historic Convention Village
Redevelopment Area in the process.
On September 21, 2001, Zyscovich, Inc., delivered a site utilization report and preliminary
concept plan, entitled "Preliminary Proposed Master Plan", that addresses the needs of the
Convention Center and the New World Symphony, evaluates parking and transportation
requirements, respects the need for an open space public plaza, identifies opportunities for
gateway entrance features, evaluates the need and location of an Intermodal Center, and
complements the adjacent urban relationships and historic districts. The Plan was
approved in concept by the City Commission at the October 17, 2001 Commission
Meeting, and was revised (as to form) on May 16, 2002. This preliminary concept plan not
only reflects updated conditions in the area since the inception of the original City Center
Redevelopment Plan in 1993, but also continues to function as a working document to
finalize outstanding urban planning issues essential to the completion ofthe Plan. These
issues, which are being addressed by Zyscovich as part of its ongoing scope of services,
include streetscape improvements for Convention Center Drive; streetscape improvements
for 16th Street east-west corridor; potential re-zoning of 1711\ Street; analysis of the 21st
Street Community Center and establishment of Dade Boulevard Traffic Circles;
determining the location and phasing of a garage and charging facility for the Electrowave;
the development of the preferred lots to address specialized meeting/exhibition space and
parking requirements for the Convention Center; the short and long term plans for the
location and development of the Garden Center; site development analyses relative to the
New World Symphony expansion plans; concept plan development for Pennsylvania
Avenue garage fa~de retail; resolution of Drexel Avenue closing; Lincoln Road
streetscape issues; and streetscape design changes related to the bus route changes.
It should be noted, that this Master Planning initiative Involved extensive public outreach
and consensus building, In the form of community meetings and one-on-one planning
sessions with individual citizens, community leaders, govemment officials and members of
the Administration. A chronological listing of the public meetings is included as an
attachment to this memorandum. While the Master Plan received the full endorsement of
those organizations, boards and committees identified on the attached list, there are
certain individuals who either oppose the plan or oppose specific elements of the plan for
reasons which include but are not limited to the following:
};> Concem with loss of parking adjacent to Lincoln Road and within close proximity of
the hotels on Collins Avenue.
};> Concern with dedicating prime city property for use by a cultural facility.
};> Concern with the City's ability to maintain the proposed park, specifically as it
relates to the homeless .
Recommendations by some of these same Individuals include leaving the 1 th street
surface lots as is, making Pennsylvania Avenue the primary entrance to Lincoln Road and
incorporating the New World Symphony'S proposed Sound Space facility into the existing
5-story parking garage.
On May 29, 2002, a public hearing was held to consider adopting certain amendments to
the City Center Redevelopment Plan. to include A) incorporating. by reference, the
Preliminary Proposed Master Plan for the 17th Street Surface Lots. prepared by Zyscovich.
Inc., dated September 21, 2001; B) developing and implementing community policing
innovations within the City Center Historic Convention Village district, as provided for in
sections 163.340, 163.350, 163.356, 163.360, 163.361, and 163.370, Florida Statutes; and
C) participating in the Miami Beach Business Assistance Program for the purpose of
business recruitment within the Redevelopment Area, to the extent legally permissible
under Chapter 163 Florida Statutes and to the extent that funding is available.
During the Hearing, concern was raised that the proposed Master Plan did not contain a
detailed statement of projected costs associated with capital projects contemplated in the
Plan, as provided for in Section 163.362(9) Florida Statutes. As such, the City Commission
requested a re-hearing on Amendment A, upon submittal of these estimates by the
Administration. The Commission did adopt Amendments B) involving Community Policing
and C) involving the Business Assistance Program. The adopting Resolution was
amended to reflect this action. The new hearing to consider Amendment A, was set for
June 19, 2002. The Administration has since prepared a detailed cost estimate which
has been incorporated as an Appendix to the Master Plan.
Redevelopment Plan Amendment Process
On May 10,2002, the Administration gave a presentation on the proposed Amendment to
the County's Tax Increment Finance (TIF) Committee, which voted to recommend in favor
of the Amendment. Subject to the adoption of the proposed Amendment by the City
Commission, the proposed Amendment will be presented to the County's Economic
Development and Housing Committee on July 18, 2002. Provided the proposed
Amendment receives a favorable recommendation. the item will be heard by the County
Commission at its meeting on July 23, 2002.
As such, the Administration recommends adopting the Proposed Amendments to the City
Center Redevelopment Plan.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Board of County Commissioners (the Board) approve the attached
amendment to the Miami Beach City CenterIHistoric Convention Village Community Redevelopment
and Revitalization Area Plan. By approving the amendment, the Board will delegate to the City of
Miami Beach (The "City") the power to implement Community Policing innovations within the City
CenterIHistoric Convention Village redevelopment area. It is further recommended that the Board
authorize the County Manager to execute the First Amendment to the Interlocal Cooperation
Agreement between Miami-Dade County (the "County") and the City of Miami Beach.
MANAGER'S BACKGROUND
On March 30, 1993, the Board adopted the Miami Beach City CenterIHistoric Convention Village
Redevelopment and Revitalization Area Plan (the "Plan") through Resolution No. 317-93. On
November 23, 1993, the Board approved an Interlocal Cooperation Agreement between the County and
the City of Miami Beach (the "Interlocal"), which establishes the terms and conditions for the
implementation of the Plan. Section 163.361 Florida Statutes, provides that any time after the approval
of a community redevelopment plan by the Governing body, it becomes necessary for desirable to
amend or modify such plan, the governing body may amend such plan upon recommendation of the
Redevelopment Agency. On June 11,2003, the Miami Beach Community Redevelopment Agency (the
"Agency") adopted Resolution No. 454-2003 which recommended the Plan be amended, to incorporate
the development and implementation of community policing initiatives. Also on June 11, 2003, the
City Commission of the City of Miami Beach adopted Resolution No. 2003-25237 which approved and
adopted an amendment to the Plan. The City Commission also adopted Resolution No. 2003-25241, on
June 11,2003, amending the Interlocal Cooperation Agreement.
In order for the City to fully implement the amendment to the Plan, it is necessary for the Board to
approve and adopt an amendment to the Plan in accordance with the provisions of the Act. The existing
Interlocal must be amended to delegate to the City the power to implement community policing
innovations within the Redevelopment Area in accordance with an approved Plan. Chapter 163.361,
Florida Statutes, enables Community Redevelopment Areas to implement and fund community
policing innovations, defined as a "policing technique or strategy designed to reduce crime by reducing
opportunities for and increasing the perceived risks of engaging in criminal activity through visible
presence of police in the community, including, but not limited to, community mobilization,
neighborhood block watch, citizen patrol, citizen contact patrol, foot patrol, neighborhood storefront
police stations, field interrogation, or intensified motorized patrol."
The Agency's proposed community policing program calls for implementing and funding new or
enhanced policing initiatives which include the assignment of police officers to permanent areas of
responsibility or beats. Police officers will work to form partnerships with residents and businesses, to
jointly solve crime and disorder problems, and share ownership of the solution strategies. The
initiatives would be designed to address specific issues indigenous to the sections/neighborhoods in the
Redevelopment Area. Emphasis will be placed on maintaining a highly visible presence and addressing
the quality of life issues within the geographic boundaries of the two districts. The staffing plan
designed to address the objectives of the community policing initiative has the following
characteristics:
Create a Community Policing Problem Solving Team, consisting of one sergeant and six officers for
the City CenterIHistoric Convention Village Redevelopment Area.
Develop Task Forces to address specific problems utilizing $500,000 in designated overtime.
Create Community Policing and, business and resident partnerships through innovative strategies.

On January 23, 2003, this proposed amendment to the Plan, together with another amendment,
providing that the plan incorporate by reference the Proposed Master Plan for the 17th Street Surface
Lots, prepared by Zyscovich, Inc., on September 21,2001 and revised as of June 19,2002, to reflect
certain input by the Mayor and City Commission, was presented to the Board. The Board only adopted
a resolution approving the amendment involving the Master Plan for the 17th Street Surface Lots. In a
December II, 2002 address to the Miami Beach City Commission in connection with the City's
proposed amendments to the Redevelopment Plan and Interlocal Agreement, which were pending
approval by the Board of County Commissioners, Commissioner Barreiro expressed concern that the
proposed community policing element was going to provide funding for existing levels of police
service in the City Center Area, thereby supplementing the City's General Fund expenditures.
Commissioner Barreiro also proposed to add two County Commissioners as voting members to the
Miami Beach Redevelopment Agency, to provide oversight in the policy decisions of the Agency. The
City Commission declined this proposal.
At a meeting of the County's Tax Increment Financing and Coordinating Committee (the Committee")
held on June 2, 2003, the Agency made a presentation of its proposed amendments to the
Redevelopment Plan. While the Committee was supportive of the Agency's proposal, certain members
expressed the following concerns and recommendations:
Case for Community Policing - the Committee, prior to the meeting, had asked for comparative crime
statistics, comparing activity in the redevelopment areas to the rest of the City. Since the Police
Department's records management system is in the process of being updated, this information could not
be provided. Committee members emphasized the need to establish a system to track and monitor the
effectiveness of community policing in the Redevelopment Areas.
Overtime - the preliminary proposed community policing budgets for the City Center and South Pointe
contain substantive overtime allocations. The Committee asked whether the Agency could contract
directly for off-duty police, in order not to incur overtime costs. Concern was raised regarding the
City's ability to track and monitor overtime expenditures as being specific to officers assigned with the
redevelopment areas. The Committee was informed that, due to the fact that the Agency is staffed by
City personnel, it is probable that the Fraternal Order of Police may take issue with a City entity
contracting separately for police services.
Monitoring expenditures and determining effectiveness of the investment in Community Policing - the
Committee wanted to establish a mechanism to monitor the investment in community policing, either
in the budget process or in the form of an annual report. The Committee was informed that the
community policing budget is included as a line item in the respective budgets for each of the two
Redevelopment Areas, which are already subject to the review and approval of the County.
On June 13, 2003, the Agency again met with the County's TIFC Committee with responses to the
issues and concerns raised by the Committee. The Agency's response included some preliminary area
specific crime data, stating that their City Attorney would not agree to the CRA contracting off-duty
police services directly, and stating that they would put in place adequate budgeting, monitoring and
reporting processes for the policing program, before their upcoming FY 2003-04 budget submission.
The Committee in a unanimous vote recommended that the proposed amendments be forwarded to the
Board for approval.
Economic Analysis Impact
The City proposes to fund these additional activities in the FY 2003-04 budget of the City Center
District a cost of$2,159,544. However, this has no immediate financial impact to the County, as the
County's annual payments to the Redevelopment Agency is predetermined, and based on the growth in
taxable property value in the redevelopment area. The agency is merely shifting the use of these
proceeds from one need to another.
