SUBJECT: PROFESSIONAL SERVICES CONTRACTS WITH ANDRES DUANY
& ELIZABETH PLATER-ZYBERK, ARCHITECTS, INC. AND
THE UNIVERSITY OF MIAMI, SCHOOL OF ARCHITECTURE,
CENTER FOR URBAN AND COMMUNITY DESIGN
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION:
The Administration recommends entering into professional services
contracts with Andres Duany & Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk, Architects,
Inc. (DPZ) and the University of Miami School of Architecture,
Center for Urban and Community Design to assist the City of Miami
Beach in preparing a master plan, design guidelines and design
studies for the North Beach neighborhood. Maximum contract amounts
not to exceed $33, 000 and $17, 000, respectively, have been
established for these purposes.
BACKGROUND:
At the May 19, 1993 and September 28, 1993 Commission meetings, the
Administration presented the plan to acquire from the State of
Florida the North Shore Open Space Area along with twenty-two (22)
surplus parcels of land in the Altos del Mar subdivision. As part
of the planning process for this area of North Beach, the
Administration believes that a master plan for the area generally
bounded by the Atlantic Ocean on the east, the City limits on the
north, Tatum Waterway on the west and 70 Street on the south was
needed. '
Toward the end, the Administration entered into discussion with the
University of Miami, School of Architecture, Center for Urban and
Community Design. The university was very interested in assisting
in this study, but recognized limitations in their ability to
quickly produce a master plan and design guidelines. ThLrefore, it
was recommended that the assignment be divided into two contracts;
one with the university and the other with an
architectural/planning firm.
Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk is a principal at the University of Miami,
School of Architecture, Center for Urban and Community Design and
with the firm of DPZ. Due to the necessity for these two
consultants to work closely together, the firm of DPZ is uniquely
qualified for this assignment .
Funds for these professional services agreements will .be repaid
from special assessment bonds. The Administration is also
considering the possibility of creating a redevelopment area. in
North Beach in order to establish a tax increment financing
district . This matter should be referred to the Finance Committee 1
for discussion.
