On November 9, 2016, City Commission passed Resolution No. 2016-29649 supporting the creation
of an “Adopt-A-Bench Program”, similar to the Central Park Conservancy’s Program in New York
City. T he program provides the public an opportunity to purchase park benches to commemorate
loved ones or special events, and would be an additional means to finance the beautification of City
parks.
On September 5, 2017, the Parks and Recreation Department received its first application for the
Adopt-A-Bench Program (Exhibit A). T he applicant has selected a bench in South Pointe Park, and
would like the commemorative plaque to read, “Maximilian and Dimitri Camino” (Exhibit B).

B A C K GROU N D
T he City Commission has approved a temporary moratorium on the issuance of any land
development permits, business tax receipts or any other license or permit for the establishment or
operation of adult congregate living facilities (ACL F). In addition to AC LF’s, the moratorium applies to
assisted living facilities, crisis stabilization units, residential detoxification centers, community
residential homes, and residential medical rehabilitation centers, and any similar or derivative uses
associated with such uses. T he moratorium is in place until December 31, 2017.
T he City has identified the need to update the City Code as it pertains to definitions and regulations
for crisis stabilization units, residential detoxification centers, community residential homes, and
residential medical rehabilitation centers. Additionally, the term adult congregate living facility (ACL F)
has become obsolete and, as currently defined in the City Code, needs to be updated to conform to
state law. In addition to replacing the obsolete term ‘ACLF’ with “assisted living facility,” the City
Code needs to be revised to include proper licensure requirements and to comply with state law
requirements.
PLANNI NG A NALY SI S
Initial research on state statutes and various municipal codes related to medical uses has been done.
T he City of Pompano Beach has been found to have very detailed requirements for such uses in
their land development regulations.
Staff has also undertaken a review of medical uses within the City, utilizing business tax receipt
(BT R) information, along with information from various State agencies that are responsible for the
regulation of medical uses. T he City currently has 25 BT R classifications for medical uses. Some
medical uses have been identified where it may be beneficial to establish new classifications in order
to better account for the variety of medical uses and impacts.
It is the intent of the ordinance to utilize terms that are consistent with the licenses issued by State
agencies, including the Florida Agency for Healthcare Administration (AHCA), Florida Department of
Health, and the Florida Department of Children and Families (DCF). T his will ensure transparency
for the zoning requirements for medical uses.
A suitability analysis has also been undertaken for various medical uses. For the purposes of this
analysis, medical uses have been categorized by the intensity of their impact and whether or not they
Page 34 of 376
allow for overnight stays or permanent residence. Classes one (1) to three (3) would not allow for
overnight stays, while classes four (4) to eight (8) would allow for overnight stays or permanent
residence. Generally, all of the uses within a particular class would have a similar impact on the
surrounding areas. T he classes are generally as follows:
• Classes one (1) to three (3) would generally not allow for overnight stays:
o Class 1 – Medical uses that have an impact similar to, and often incorporate retail uses. T hese
may include Optician, Retail Clinic, Adult Day Care Center, Electrology Facility, and Medical Office.
T hese uses are often seen as a small accessory use to large-scale residential and hotel uses as
well. T hese uses could be appropriate in up to 20 of the City’s zoning districts.
o Class 2 – Medical uses that generally provide medical care throughout extended working hours,
along with diagnostic and testing services. T hese may involve the generation of higher levels of
medical waste than Class I, and generate higher levels of traffic. T hese uses are often located within
office or retail buildings, and typically schedule appointments with patients during standard working
hours. T hese may include Ambulatory Surgical Center (ASC), Laboratory, Comprehensive
Outpatient Rehabilitation Facility, End-Stage Renal Disease Center, Health Care Clinic, Prescribed
Pediatric Extended Care Center, Urgent Care Center, Women’s Health Clinic, Pathologist, and
Rehabilitation Agency. T hese uses could be appropriate in up to ten (10) of the City’s zoning
districts.

T hese may involve frequent visits from patients who may require services from the facility on a daily
basis. T hese may include Detoxification Centers, Intensive Outpatient Treatment Facilities, and Pain
Management Clinics. T hese could be appropriate in up to six (6) of the City’s zoning districts.
• Classes four (4) to eight (8) would allow for overnight stays or permanent residence:
o Class 4 – A category in which assistance is given to permanent residents with assistance in daily
personal activities including but not limited to, bathing, dressing, eating, grooming, and dispensing of
medicine in a residential setting. Such a facility may have no more than six (6) residents. T his
includes Adult Family Care Home, Assisted Living Facilities, Community Residential Homes, Homes
for Special Services, Hospice Facility, Intermediate Care Facility Developmentally Disabled, and
Residential Treatment Facility (Level V). T hese facilities are often located in single family areas and
could be appropriate in up to 26 of the City’s zoning districts.

T he Administration recommends approving the Resolution.
AN ALYS IS
T he City adopted the 2011 Stormwater Management Master Plan (SWMMP) by Resolution 2012-
28068. T his plan is intended to be a guide for improving the City's stormwater management system
performance for a 20 year planning horizon, with considerations of potential sea level rise over 20
years for stormwater infrastructure and 50 years for seawall heights. Periodically, due to updated
climate projections, it is important to update the SWM M P to stay current and viable.
Items such as roadway elevation, levels of service for roads, precipitation design rates and
distribution, seawall elevations, and minimum future grade elevations have been presented to the
Mayor ’s Blue Ribbon Panel on Flooding and Sea Level Rise on several occasions.
On February 12, 2014, the City adopted Resolution 2014-28499, which approved the
recommendation of T he Flooding Mitigation Committee to amend the SWMMP so as to modify the
design criteria for the water level in Biscayne Bay be increased from 0.5 Ft-N AVD to 2.7 Ft-N AVD for
all tidal boundary conditions.
On July 21, 2015, the Mayor ’s Blue Ribbon Panel on Flooding and Sea Level Rise recommend that
the seawall cap on all new private construction and all public seawall construction be changed from
3.2 feet NAVD to 5.7 feet N AVD throughout the City; provided, however, that for properties with
Page 66 of 376
existing private seawalls that are being replaced/repaired not associated with new building
construction, the Panel recommended applying a minimum 4.0 NAVD elevation, as long as the
structural design to accommodate a seawall height extension to a minimum 5.7 NAVD.
On May 11, 2016, the Mayor and City Commission adopted Ordinances 2016-4009, relating to
amending Chapter 54 of the City Code entitled “Floods” to define City of Miami Beach Freeboard,
and modify how grade elevation and height are defined due to flooding and climate change.
Also on May 11, 2016, the Mayor and City Commission adopted Ordinance 2016-4010, relating to
amending Chapter 118, of the Land Development Code, to incorporate the same Freeboard
definitions, and procedures for how to determine grade elevation and height as a result of flooding
and climate change.
T he SWMM P needs to be amended to incorporate modifications to the standards for the
construction of new roads, stormwater systems, and developments; which standards would
incorporate higher elevations in order to reduce the risk of flooding; redefine the level of service and
design storm; and define minimum “future grade” and seawall heights.
At the Mayor ’s Blue Ribbon Panel on Flooding and Sea Level Rise on July 18, 2017, the members
discussed and recommended that the SWMMP be codified and require a super majority of the
Commission to reduce the resiliency standards incorporated therein. Sea level rise and flooding is an
ongoing concern of the City. Low lying infrastructure including buildings must either retrofit and adapt
to increased water levels or elevate in order to reduce risk or maintain low risk from potential flood
damage. It is appropriate to ensure that the S WMMP, as may be amended, gets incorporated into
Chapter 54, of the City of Miami Beach’s City Code, entitled “Flooding”.
T he proposed Ordinance specifically adopts the SWMMP as may be amended in the future. All
developments or applications for development permits shall comply with the S WMMP. In addition, the
adoption of any ordinance that would reduce, relax, diminish, or repeal the requirements of Chapter
54, shall require a 5/7 vote of the City Commission.
T he City’s S WMMP provides guidance and regulations to ensure minimum flood-proofing
requirements to protect residential and commercial structures, and to provide additional levels of
protection to maintain consistency with U.S. Federal and State guidance.
Following discussion at the City Commission meeting of October 18, 2017, additional language was
added to the Ordinance amendment on the dais, requiring a 5/7 vote of the City Commission in order
to repeal or modify the voting mandate.

SEVERABILITY, CODIFICATION, AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
WHEREAS, the City of Miami Beach ("City") regulates the location, size, hours of
operation, and minimum patron age for uses that permit the sale and consumption of alcoholic
beverages in Chapter 6 of the City Code, entitled "Alcoholic Beverages"; and
WHEREAS, the Mayor and City Commission have determined that it is in the best
interest of the City, and it serves the health, safety, and welfare of the City's residents and
visitors, to prohibit package sales of alcoholic beverages (which include sales of alcohol for off-
premises consumption) after 8 OO pm. each day, m the MXE district; along Washington Avenue
in the CD-2 commercial, medium intensity district adjoining the MXE district; and along the east
side of Collins Avenue (between 73rd and 75th Streets) in the CD-2 commercial, medium
intensity district adjoining the MXE district; and
WHEREAS, this Ordinance strikes a balance between (i) the public safety concerns
associated with the sale of alcoholic beverages, on the one hand, and (h) the convenience of
the City's residents and visitors who desire to purchase alcoholic beverages, as well as the
economic vitality of the City's retail stores, on the other hand; and
WHEREAS, State law expressly grants the City the authority to establish its own
regulations for the time for sale of alcoholic or mtoxicatmq beverages; and

WHEREAS, in State ex rel Floyd v Noel (Fla. 1936), the Florida Supreme Court
recognized that "[1]t is so well settled that no citation of authority rs required to support the
statement that a municipality exercising the powers inherent in municipal corporations may
reasonably regulate the sale of intoxicating liquors and in providing such reasonable regulations
may prohibit the sale of such liquors within certain hours, and also may prohibit the sale of
liquors within certain zones"; and
WHEREAS, the Florida Attorney General has opined that a municipality may regulate (1)
the hours of sale, (2) zoning of locations in which alcoholic beverages may be sold, and (3) the
sanitary conditions under which alcoholic beverages may be dispensed or served to the public

establishments are not entitled to grandfather status as to hours of sale for alcoholic beverages.
(See Village of North Palm Beach v. S & H Foster's, Inc. (Fla 4th DCA 2012); Other Place of
Miami, Inc. v City of Hialeah Gardens (Fla 3d DCA 1978)); and

AN ALYS IS
B A C K GROU N D
On May 11, 2016, at the request of Commissioner Arriola, the City Commission directed the City
Attorney to draft an ordinance establishing a temporary moratorium on the issuance of demolition
permits in the North Beach area (Item R9O). On July 13, 2016, the City Commission approved the
ordinance establishing a temporary moratorium for the demolition of any ‘Contributing’ structure within
the following areas of the North Beach Master Plan study area:
• T he “North Shore National Register District:” Generally bounded by 73rd Street to the south,
Dickens Avenue, Hawthorne Avenue and Crespi Boulevard to the west, 87th Street to the north, and
Collins Court to the east.
• T he “Normandy Isles National Register District:” Generally bounded by Biscayne Bay to the south,
Ray Street, Rue Notre Dame and Rue Versailles to the west, Normandy Shores Golf Course to the
north, and the western bulkhead of Indian Creek to the east.
T his moratorium remained in effect for one hundred and eighty (180) days from the effective date of
July 13, 2016, and expired on January 13, 2017. On March 1, 2017, the moratorium was extended
an additional 180 days, retroactive to February 8, 2017. T his extended moratorium expired on August
8, 2017. On June 28, 2017, the current moratorium was extended, retroactive to February 8, 2017,
and is set to expire on October 31, 2017.
PLANNI NG A NALY SI S
T he proposed moratorium is an extension of the previous moratorium, and would apply to the
demolition of any “Contributing” structure within the areas identified for inclusion in the proposed
North Beach National Register Conservation Districts. Generally, this includes the areas of the North
Shore and Normandy Isles National Register Districts that were not included within the proposed
boundaries of the local historic districts.
T he moratorium extension would not apply to applications that have received a Land Use Board
Order or a building permit for demolition prior to February 8, 2017, which is the applicable date of the
existing moratorium. It would also not apply to an unsafe structure board order or a lawful order of the
Building Official.
As proposed, the moratorium would remain in effect until January 31, 2018, unless earlier rescinded,
repealed or extended by an Ordinance or Resolution of the City Commission. T he ordinance is
proposed to be effective, RE T RO AC T IVE, to October 31, 2017.
T he proposed North Beach National Register Neighborhood Conservation District Overlay
Ordinance is scheduled to be considered by the Planning Board on October 24, 2017. Assuming
such ordinance is referred, First Reading before the City Commission would not be until December.
T he proposed moratorium extension would coincide with Planning Board and Commission review of
the conservation district legislation.

STRUCTURES WITHIN THE AFOREDESCRIBED AREAS; PROVIDING FOR
AN EFFECTIVE DATE RETROACTIVE TO FIRST READING, OCTOBER 31,

APPLICATIONS FOR DEMOLITION WITHIN THE DESIGNATED AREA
SHALL BE ACCEPTED BY THE CITY; PROVIDING FOR EXCEPTIONS;
PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; REPEAL OF CONFLICTING
ORDINANCE PROVISIONS; AND PROVIDING FOR AN EXPIRATION DATE.
WHEREAS, the Mayor and City Commission desire to create a conservation district overlay
for the entirety of the North Beach National Historic District and the Normandy Isles National Historic
District; and
WHEREAS, within the two National Historic Districts, the City has triggered zoning in progress
to create two new local historic districts, which two districts are smaller than the larger National
Historic Districts; and
Page 90 of 376
WHEREAS, the Mayor and City Commission have implemented a temporary moratorium on
the receipt of and processing of demolition permits to ensure the completion of the regulations relating
to the creation of conservation district regulations for Tatum Waterway, from Byron Avenue to the
North, and 77 Street to the South and has imposed a moratorium for that area; and
WHEREAS, as the conservation district regulations have not been drafted or implemented, the
City desires to implement a moratorium for the portions of the proposed conservation district that is
not currently subject to the Tatum Waterway Moratorium, or zoning in progress under the local historic
district designation process: and
WHEREAS, as seen in WCI Communities, Inc. v. City of Coral Springs, 885 So.2d 912(Fla. 4th
DCA 2004), a court will not interfere with the legislative act of establishing a temporary moratorium in
processing plan where there is a rational relationship to the City's legitimate general welfare concern;
and
WHEREAS, moreover, a court should not set aside the determination of public officers in land
use matters unless it is clear that their action has no foundation in reason, and is a mere arbitrary or
irrational exercise of power having no substantial relation to the public health, the public morals, the
public safety of the public welfare in its proper sense. Id.; and Smithfield Concerned Citizens for Fair
Zoning v. Town of Smithfield, 907 F.2d 239, 243 (1st Cir. 1990); and
WHEREAS, the first step in ensuring a proper moratorium, is to ensure that the City's
legislative has a rational basis and legitimate governmental purpose for the imposition of a
moratorium; and
WHEREAS, the second step is for the Mayor and City Commission to establish a record that
the moratorium would further the governmental purpose of creating, finalizing, and adopting the
conservation district regulations; and
WHEREAS, while the planning process is being solidified, some key areas of emphasis have
emerged as the essential foundations to ensure the creation of the conservation district guidelines
while garnering widespread support throughout the community, including but not limited to a balanced
strategy to promote historic preservation while supporting incentives for greater development, density
and activation; and
WHEREAS, the Mayor and City Commission desire to encourage innovative and compatible
redevelopment that provides improved communities, enhances public benefits in the form of
compatible architecture and uses;
WHEREAS, the creation of a· master plan and analysis of the impacts due to such plan on
parks, recreation, open space, infrastructure, accessibility of emergency and public service vehicular
traffic and public safety and public facilities needs is important to the City to ensure the health, safety
and welfare of the City's residents and visitors; and
WHEREAS, the City Commission has noted the rapid demolition of a multitude of structures
within the study area, and is concerned that the character of the community, and possible increase of
incompatible uses or structures is of concern; and
WHEREAS, the City in order to protect and preserve the character of the remaining areas not
covered by the (a) Tatum Waterway moratorium or (b) zoning in progress for the local designation
areas, while the City develops the conservation district regulations, the moratorium is necessary; and
2
Page 91 of 376
WHEREAS, the City Commission realizes that all these changes may have a consequence of
increasing demand for City services and on how these structures are handling for land development
reasons; and
WHEREAS, the City requires time to review, consider, modify, process for adoption, and
implementation regulations pertaining to the referenced zoning districts, and to evaluate the extent
that the existing zoning/land development regulation are effectively implementing the plan; and
WHEREAS, the Courts have recognized that a temporary moratorium is an important land-use
planning tool as a means of preserving the status quo during the planning process to ensure the
Community's problems are not exacerbated during the time it takes to formulate a regulatory scheme;
and
WHEREAS, it is well-settled that permissible bases for land use restrictions include concern
about the effect of the proposed development on traffic, on congestion, on surrounding property
values, on demand for City ,services, and on other aspects of the general welfare. WCI Communities,
Inc., 885 So.2d at 915 and Corn v. City of Lauderdale Lakes, 997 F.2d 1369, 1375 (11th Cir. 1993);
and
WHEREAS, for purposes of determining whether the retroactive application of a municipal
ordinance impairs a vested right under Florida law, a vested right is defined as an immediate, fixed
right of present enjoyment, Id.; and
WHEREAS, the City is not interfering with a vested right obtained as a result of a final order
from a City Land Use Board, or permit already obtained under the Florida Building Code; and
WHEREAS, the City requires a limited amount of additional time, as the original moratorium is
scheduled to expire on July 7, 2017, and although great progress has been made, including by the
North Beach Steering Committee, but additional time is needed to obtain a consensus, and finalize
.the new draft regulations; and
WHEREAS, the Mayor and City Commission extended the moratorium on demolition permits
through October 31, 20_17, or adoption of the Conservation District regulations, whichever is first; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Board has yet to provide a recommendation on the Conservation
District, but is scheduled to do so; and
WHEREAS, a short extension of the moratorium is necessary to ensure that zoning-in-
progress is triggered by the Planning Board.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA:

retroactive to January 11, 2017.
T he moratorium for Tatum Waterway was set to expire on or about July 11, 2017. On June 28, 2017,

NO APPLICATIONS FOR DEMOLITION WITHIN THE DESIGNATED
AREA SHALL BE ACCEPTED BY THE CITY; PROVIDING FOR
EXCEPTIONS; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; REPEAL OF

WHEREAS, the Mayor and City Commission have recognized the need for a temporary
moratorium on the receipt of and processing of demolition permits to ensure the completion of
the regulations relating to the creation of conservation district regulations for Tatum Waterway,
from Byron Avenue to the North, and 77 Street to the South; and
WHEREAS, as seen in WCI Communities, Inc. v. City of Coral Springs, 885 So.2d
912(Fla. 4th DCA 2004), a court will not interfere with the legislative act of establishing a
temporary moratorium in processing plan where there is a rational relationship to the City's
legitimate general welfare concern; and
WHEREAS, moreover, a court should not set aside the determination of public officers in
land use matters unless it is clear that their action has no foundation in reason, and is a mere
arbitrary or irrational exercise of power having no substantial relation to the public health, the
public morals, the public safety of the public welfare in its proper sense. Id.; and Smithfield
Concerned Citizens for Fair Zoning v. Town of Smithfield, 907 F.2d 239, 243 (1st Cir. 1990); and
WHEREAS, the first step in ensuring a proper moratorium, is to ensure that the City's
legislative has a rational basis and legitimate governmental purpose for the imposition of a
moratorium; and
Page 98 of 376
WHEREAS, the second step is for the Mayor and City Commission to establish a record
that the moratorium would further the governmental purpose of creating, finalizing, and adopting
the North Beach vision through the Master Plan process; and
WHEREAS, while the planning process is being solidified, some key areas of emphasis
have emerged as the essential foundations to ensure the creation of the conservation district
guidelines while garnering widespread support throughout the community, including but not
limited to a balanced strategy to promote historic preservation while supporting incentives for
greater development, density and activation; and
WHEREAS, the Mayor and City Commission desire to encourage innovative and
compatible redevelopment that provides improved communities, enhances public benefits in the
form of compatible architecture and uses;
WHEREAS, the creation of a master plan and analysis of the impacts due to such plan
on parks, recreation, open space, infrastructure, accessibility of emergency and public service
vehicular traffic and public safety and public facilities needs is important to the City to ensure the
health, safety and welfare of the City's residents and visitors; and
WHEREAS, the City Commission has noted the rapid demolition of a multitude of
structures within the study area, and is concerned that the character of the community, and
possible increase of incompatible uses or structures is of concern; and
WHEREAS, the City in order to protect and preserve Tatum Waterway, while the City
develops the conservation district regulations, the moratorium is necessary; and
WHEREAS, the City Commission realizes that all these changes may have a
consequence of increasing demand for City services and on how these structures are handling
for land development reasons; and ·
r WHEREAS, the City requires time to review, consider, modify, process for adoption, and
implementation regulations pertaining to the referenced zoning districts, and to evaluate the
extent that the existing zoning/land development regulation are effectively implementing the
plan; and
WHEREAS, the Courts have recognized that a temporary moratorium is an important
land-use planning tool as a means of preserving the status quo during the planning process to
ensure the Community's problems are not exacerbated during the time it takes to formulate a
regulatory scheme; and
WHEREAS, it is well-settled that permissible bases for land use restrictions include
concern about the effect of the proposed development on traffic, on congestion, on surrounding
property values, on demand for City services, and on other aspects of the general welfare. WCI
Communities, Inc., 885 So.2d at 915 and Corn v. City of Lauderdale Lakes, 997 F.2d 1369,
1375 (11th Cir. 1993); and
WHEREAS, in applying an ordinance retroactively (1) there is clear evidence of
legislative intent to apply the law retroactively, and (2) when allowed, the retroactive application
is constitutionally permissible, in that the new law does not create new obligations, impose new
penalties, or impair vested rights. Jasinski v. City of Miami, 269 F.Supp.2d 1341 (SD Fla. 2003);
and
2
Page 99 of 376
WHEREAS, for purposes of determining whether the retroactive application of a
municipal ordinance impairs a vested right under Florida law, a vested right is defined as an
immediate, fixed right of present enjoyment, Id.; and.
WHEREAS, the City is not interfering with a vested right obtained as a result of a final
order from a City Land Use Board, or permit already obtained under the Florida Building Code;
and
WHEREAS, the City requires a limited amount of additional time, as the original
moratorium is scheduled to expire on July 7, 2017, and although great progress has been
made, including by the North Beach Steering Committee, but additional time is needed to obtain
a consensus, and finalize the new draft regulations; and
WHEREAS, the Mayor and City Commission extended the moratorium on demolition
permits through October 31, 2017, or adoption of the Conservation District regulations,
whichever is first; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Board has yet to provide a recommendation on the
Conservation District, but is scheduled to do so; and
WHEREAS, a short extension of the moratorium is necessary to ensure that zoning-in-
progress is triggered by the Planning Board.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF

COMMISSION MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor Philip Levine and Members of the City Commission
FROM: Jimmy L. Morales, City Manager
DATE: October 31, 2017
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, ADOPTING THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE
CAPITAL BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 2017/18.
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the Resolution.
BACKGROUND
Planning for capital improvements is an ongoing process; as needs change within the City,
capital programs and priorities must be adjusted. The Capital Improvement Plan (“CIP”) serves
as the primary planning tool for systematically identifying, prioritizing and assigning funds to
critical City capital development, improvements and associated needs.
The City's capital improvement plan process begins in the spring when all departments are
asked to prepare capital improvement updates and requests on the department’s ongoing and
proposed capital projects. Individual departments prepare submittals identifying potential
funding sources and requesting commitment of funds for their respective projects.
The CIP is updated annually and submitted to the City Commission for adoption. The 2017/18 –
2021/22 Capital Improvement Plan and FY 2017/18 Capital Budget was adopted on September
25, 2017 by Resolution 2017-30026.
Section 166.241(4) (c.), Florida Statutes, requires that a municipality’s budget amendment must
be adopted in the same manner as the original budget. Administration recommends adopting
the Resolution for the First Amendment to the FY 2017/18 Capital Budget.
FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE FY 2017/18 CAPITAL BUDGET
The First Amendment to the FY 2017/18 Capital Budget totals a decrease of $847,543.93 and
re-appropriations of $3,621,461.79 in order to provide additional funding, and to reallocate
funding between the following capital projects.

Page 2 of 6
1. Española Way Conversion between Washington Avenue and Drexel Avenue:
The scope of this project includes the reconstruction of the existing pavement to
pavers or colored concrete, replacement of existing water main, drainage
improvements and rehabilitation of existing sanitary sewer main, laterals and
manholes. The project also includes new decorative LED pedestrian street lights.
During the development of the FY 2017/18 Capital budget, $400,276 was added to
this project to allow for the installation of security bollards on Espanola Way.
This budget amendment would increase funding to this project by $100,000, as the
bids received to purchase and install the bollards at this location have exceeded the
original estimate. Funding for this amendment would come from the Capital Reserve
Fund balance- Fund 304
Prior Years’ Appropriations $2,545,466
October 31, 2017 Budget Amendment 100,000
Proposed Total Appropriations $2,645,466
2. 555 Building Mold Remediation: The scope of this project comprises mold
remediation work, including roof work, exterior wall repair, new flooring, and drywall
repair to the 555 Building. This budget amendment would increase funding to the
project by $186,760.76 in order to cover the cost of additional expenditures
encountered after the initial demolition and abatement of the mold at the 555
building.
Complete remediation of the mold will include removal and replacement of ductwork
currently built with asbestos, as well as replacement of the kitchen cabinets due to
significant water damage. Funding for this amendment would come from the transfer
of funds, which are not needed in the three projects outlined below, as well as
$94,100 from the Capital Renewal & Replacement Fund balance- Fund 125
South Shore Community Center Exterior Paint - $27,446.11
South Shore Community Center Switch Gear Replacement - $16,700
South Shore Community Center- Replacement Chilled Water Pump -
$48,514.65
Prior Years’ Appropriations $222,712.00

3. Reallocation of Funds between General Obligation (G.O.) Bond-Funded
Projects: A general obligation bond is a form of debt financing payable solely from
property taxes, backed by a pledge of the City’s “full faith and credit” or taxing power,
and used to finance capital projects that do not produce revenues. The City currently
has unspent dollars associated with five G.O. bonds. These include the 1996 Parks
bond, the 1999 Fire Safety bond, the 2003 Fire Safety bond, the 2003 Parks &
Recreation bond, and the 2003 Neighborhood bond.
During the development of the FY 2017/18 budget, the Commission decided to
develop a new G.O. Bond program for voter approval on November 6, 2018. As part
of this process, the Finance department advised that an analysis of the unspent G.O.
Bond funds would be conducted with a goal of expediting the expenditure of these
bond funds by re-allocating the dollars from projects which are either completed (as
indicated below), or will not be completed within this fiscal year to projects which are
projected to spend these funds in FY 2017/18. The funding from the donor projects
in this realignment is anticipated to be replaced by new funding from the new
proposed G.O. bond program. This budget amendment would transfer G.O. bond
funding between existing projects in order to meet this objective as follows:
West Avenue Phase II – Funding would be transferred from the projects outlined
below in order to increase funding in the West Avenue Phase II project. These 2003
Neighborhood G.O. bond dollars would be used to fund a portion of the unfunded
above-ground costs of this project:
Indian Creek Greenway - $33,453.82
Seawall- Dickens Avenue Shoreline - $26,250.00

AN ALYS IS
West 59th Street end (located westerly of North Bay Road) is a 50-foot wide City owned right-of-way
(R OW), per the Recorded Subdivision Plat of La Gorce-Golf Subdivision, dated April 8, 1925 by
Miami Beach Bay Shore Co..
On said Subdivision Plat, westerly of and adjacent to the westerly end of West 59th Street, there is
an unnumbered parcel shown, approximately 30 feet by 50 feet. Mr. Robert J. Schidler is listed as a
previous owner of the unnumbered parcel, as well as previous owner of the southerly and adjacent
Lot 25 (the unnumbered parcel is subject to a utility easement from subdivision developer Miami
Beach Bay Shore Co., to the City of Miami Beach, dated June 29, 1925).
Page 117 of 376
Ambassa Holdings, Inc. c/o Christian Berdoure, current owner of said parcels, is requesting that the
City vacate the southerly portion of its R OW, located on West 59th Street west of North Bay Road,
in exchange for a half of a portion of the private property to make the remaining right of way extend all
the way to the bay. An easement will be granted for utilities under the vacated right-of-way and the
corresponding piece of property abutting the bay to form a continuous easement.
An item was discussed at the Finance and Citywide Projects Committee on February 17, 2017. T he
Committee recommended accepting the appraised value and similar valuation of the land to be
acquired. However, with City ownership of the waterfront property, also comes the burden of
rebuilding the seawall to the City’s standards, which needs to be considered.
After negotiations with the current owner ’s representative, a voluntary monetary contribution of
$300,000 was agreed upon for:
a) T he City vacating the southerly half of the right-of-way;
b) T he owner providing an easement across the vacated parcel as well as a portion of the retained
parcel creating a continuous easement from North Bay Road to the bay; and
c) T he owner transferring ownership to the City the portion of the property to create a continuous
right-of-way to the bay.
Although the City’s procedures for the lease of sale or sale of public property require an advertised
public bidding process, the requirement may also be waived by 5/7th vote of the City Commission; in
this case, and due to the nature of the law pertaining to the vacation of rights-of-way, the City
Administration recommends that the Mayor and City Commission waive the competitive bidding
requirement, finding that the public interest is served by waiving such conditions.
T he vacation of this RO W serves a public purpose, by providing direct access to the water as the
current ROW stops 30 feet short of waters’ edge.
Pursuant to the City’s existing administrative policies and procedures to consider the vacation of the
City streets, alleys, and/or rights-of-way, which also require compliance with Article II, Sections 82-36
through 82-40 of the City Code (which establish procedures governing the sale or lease of public
property), prior to considering a request for vacation, the following requirements must be satisfied:
1) T he title of the Resolution approving the proposed vacation shall be heard by the City
Commission on two separate meeting dates, with the second reading to be accompanied by a duly
noticed public hearing, in order to obtain citizen input of the proposed vacation;
2) T he proposed vacation shall be transmitted to the Finance and Citywide Projects Committee for
its review, which occurred on February 17, 2017;
3) In order for the City Commission and the public to be fully appraised of all conditions relating to the
proposed vacation, the City’s Planning Department shall prepare a written planning analysis, to be
submitted to the City Commission concurrent with its consideration of the proposed vacation, which is
attached; and
4) T he City shall obtain an independent appraisal of the fair market value of the property proposed to
be vacated. T he appraisal dated December 9, 2016 resulted in an “across the fence” value of
$250,000 which is also attached.
Page 118 of 376
At it's July 26, 2017 meeting, the City Commission approved the setting of the public hearing at its
next meeting in October to consider approving the ROW vacation. At the City Commission meeting of
October 18, 2017, the public hearing was opened and continued.
C O N C L U S IO N
Vacation of the public RO W is consistent with the Goals, Objectives, and Policies of the
Comprehensive Plan. T he vacation of the southern portion of the westerly end of the West 59th
Street public R OW will generate no negative impacts for the surrounding area. T he property would
continue to serve in much the same manner, and public access to the bay could be provided.

Re: Estimated Land Value, Subject to an Easement
5880 North Bay Road
Miami Beach, FL 33140
WRI File No. 8646
Dear Mr. Buell:
We have prepared an appraisal report of the above referenced property to estimate the market value
of the fee simple interest of a “right-of-way parcel”, as of November 23, 2016. The basis of this
valuation is an “across the fence value”. By itself the subject property is not of sufficient size to
allow construction. The across the fence value considers the values of neighboring sites to estimate
a value that does not discount for the subject’s insufficient size to be developed.
The subject property is vacant land and is an existing right-of-way and therefore does not have a
street address. The parcel to the south is identified as 5860 North Bay Road and the parcel to the
north is identified as 5900 North Bay Road. Solely for the purposes of this appraisal the subject’s
address will be identified as 5880 North Bay Road.
The reader should note that no site survey was provided, and there are some discrepancies in the
public records (described in the pages of this report) with respect to the land area an d parcel
boundaries. Thus, this valuation requires extraordinary assumptions regarding the size and
boundaries of the subject parcel and adjacent parcels.
The terms market value, fee simple interest, across the fence value and extraordinary assumption
are defined in the pages of this report. This report has been prepared based on the scope of work
which is detailed on a following page. The reader of the appraisal is strongly advised to read the
scope of work to understand the scope of this appraisal.

Mr. Wm. Roger Buell, P.E.

This report is intended for use only by the client and intended users as noted herein. No additional
intended users are identified or intended. Use of this report by others is not intended by the
appraiser. No one else, or any other entities, should rely on this appraisal other than those noted
herein.
The subject property is a right-of-way and a portion of a 50-foot wide City-owned tract located
along the west side of North Bay Road. This is essentially the extension of West 59th Street, west
of North Bay Road. The City described this subject property as consisting of the south one-half of
this tract, a 25-foot wide parcel extending from North Bay Road to the east side of the irregular-
shaped portion of the adjacent site located at 5860 N Bay Road. This adjacent parcel extends north
along the water’s edge. The subject property does not have waterfrontage.
The City indicated that the south side of the subject property is 223.5 feet (based on a dimension
indicated on the plat map) and estimated the size at 5,722 square feet. However, the reader should
note that a review of the plat map and the legal description of the adjacent parcel indicates that
both the south and north sides of the City-owned tract are 30 feet shorter (193.5 feet and 215.1
feet, respectively) than the dimensions indicated on the plat map. This is attributed to the plat map
dimensions referring to the entire length of the lot from North Bay Road to the water’s edge. Based
on the dimensions indicated by the legal description, the appraisers have estimated the size
of the subject parcel at 4,973 square feet. As no site survey was provided, this valuation
therefore also requires the extraordinary assumption that the size of the subject parcel is
4,973 square feet
In addition, the City indicated to it “would retain a full-width private easement for public utilities”
over the subject property. This was taken into consideration in the valuation herein.
The definition of an extraordinary assumption and a listing of the assumptions used in this
valuation are shown on the following page.

Mr. Wm. Roger Buell, P.E.

This appraisal is based on extraordinary assumptions. An extraordinary assumption is
defined in The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, 6th Edition (2015) as “an assumption,
directly related to a specific assignment, as of the effective date of the assignment results,
which if found to be false, could alter the appraiser's opinions or conclusions. Extraordinary
assumptions presume as fact otherwise uncertain information about physical, legal, or
economic characteristics of the subject property; or about conditions external to the
property, such as market conditions or trends; or about the integrity of data used in an
analysis”.
That the parcel boundaries indicated in the illustrations included in this report
(which differ from the boundaries shown in the Miami-Dade County Property
Appraiser’s aerial photographs for 2016) are approximately correct.
That the subject property has a land area of 4,973 square feet and a location
and shape as shown in the illustrations included in this report
These extraordinary assumptions, if found to be false or different in any way, could alter the
opinions and/or conclusions of value, herein. The reader is strongly advised to be familiar
with these assumptions and how they could affect value.
The illustration shown on the following page is reproduced from the plat map for the subject area.
The blue-shaded area indicates the subject property being appraised herein and the yellow-shaded
area indicates the adjacent parcel. As noted, the plat map dimensions of 223.5 feet along the north
side of Lot 25 and 245.1 feet along the south side of Lot 24 refer to the distance between the west
side of North Bay Road and the water’s edge. Which does not include the subject property.
The legal description of the adjacent parcel indicates that the distance between the northeast corner
of the site at North Bay Road and the irregular-shaped portion of the subject property that extends
north along the water’s edge at the northwest corner is 193.5 feet (30 feet less). This is the length
of the south side of the subject property. The distance between the west side of the subject property
and the water’s edge is 30 feet. Therefore, the north side of the way parcel is 30 feet less than the
north dimension, or 215.1 feet. The appraisers have estimated the length of the north side of the
subject property at 204.3 feet (mid-way between the south side and north side dimensions). Based
on these dimensions and the 25-foot width, the appraisers have estimated the size of the subject
property at 4,973 square feet.

This valuation is based on an across the fence methodology, in which the market value of an
adjacent parcel is the basis for estimating the value of the subject property. This method has been
used as the subject property is not a buildable site by itself. Appropriate adjustments are made for
location, in consideration of the fact that the subject property lacks waterfrontage, and for the
restrictions imposed by the easement that the City would retain over the subject property.
Additionally, the reader should note that the market value per square feet of the adjacent parcel
would likely change because of the addition of the subject property (it would benefit from a slightly
more desirable shape and from a slight improvement in the quality of its water views). Note that
this valuation does not consider the impact on the value of the adjacent parcel by the addition
of the subject property, nor was it requested as part of the appraisal assignment.

The subject property has been valued based upon an “across the fence value” to reflect an estimated
value as if it was a buildable site. Next, consideration was given to this site, although valued as a
buildable site, will be restricted by an easement that does not allow construction. As such, this
limits the uses of the site. The adjacent owner would be the likely only purchaser that could utilize
the property. This appraisal does not value the site based on a premium that might be paid by the
adjoining owner. It values the site based on an across the fence value, with that value discounted
for the inability to construct on the site and the effects of the easement. This valuation treats the
subject property as surplus land that cannot be constructed upon. If a wall were allowed to be
constructed to enclose the site making it private, the estimated value herein would be greater. The
greater the allowable uses, the higher the estimated value.
Based on our research and analysis, it is our opinion that the across the fence value of the fee
simple interest of the subject property as of November 23, 2016, is in the amount of
TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS1
($250,000)
The reader should note that the across the fence value estimate is based on the market value of the
adjoining parcel, but is not an indication of the value of the subject property to the adjoining owner,
who may potentially derive unique benefits from acquisition of the subject property not reflected
in the across the fence value methodology. Estimating the value of the subject property to the
adjoining owner is outside the scope of this assignment.
Following the table of contents is the scope of work and the certification. The reader is advised to
review the assumptions and conditions which follow the certification to understand the limitations
applicable to this appraisal.
Very truly yours,

Scope of Work
The appraisal problem herein is to estimate the across the fence value of the subject property. The
methodology used is to estimate the across the fence value based on the market value of an adjacent
parcel as though vacant. The market value estimate employs the sales comparison approach to
estimate market value of the adjacent parcel based on analysis of comparable sales. For the across
the fence value estimate of the subject property, an adjustment is required for location because the
subject property lacks waterfrontage. Most parcels on the west side of North Bay Road have water
frontage. To estimate the adjustment, sales of both waterfront and non-waterfront sites were
considered in the analysis.
This appraisal report contains extraordinary assumptions. The reader is strongly advised to
be familiar with the definition of an extraordinary assumption because it is significant in
understanding the premise of this appraisal. The definition is detailed on page 3 in the letter
of transmittal. It is applicable to this appraisal because a change in the extraordinary
assumption could cause a change in the opinions and conclusions herein.
All appraisals begin by identifying the appraisal problem. Data on the subject property can be
derived from various sources including but not limited to, the property owner, the county property
appraiser’s office, recorded plats and surveys. When possible, more than one source is utilized to
confirm data and the data sources are acknowledged. Land size is based on surveys (when
available), public records and recorded plats. Land measurements are not performed.
Valued herein is vacant land which can be valued by the following methods:
1. Sales Comparison Approach
2. Market Extraction
3. Allocation
4. Land Residual
5. Ground Rent Capitalization
6. Subdivision Analysis
The sales comparison approach was used herein and was considered the most applicable method
in the valuation of the main parcel. A search was performed for the sale of properties considered
comparable to the subject property. Research of comparable sales and market data include, but is
not limited to using the following data sources:
CoStar
Imapp
Newspaper clippings
Board of Realtors’ Multiple Listing Service
Loopnet.com
Comparable sales are inspected and the transactional information is reported. Sale prices are from
public records and are typically confirmed with a party to the transaction, i.e. buyer, seller, real
estate agent, or closing attorney. All information is analyzed in processing the appraisal report and
as support for the estimated value. The scope of work for this assignment has been described above
and is to be typical for an assignment of the nature of the subject appraisal problem.

detailed analyses of the requirements of the ADA, could reveal that the property is not in
compliance with one or more of the act. If so, this fact could have a negative impact upon
the value of the property. Since the appraiser has no direct evidence relating to this issue,
possible noncompliance with the requirements of ADA was not considered in estimating
the value of the property.

subject property as of November 23, 2016, subject to an access easement. The terms “across the
fence value” and fee simple interest are defined below and the term market value is defined on the
following page.
Client, Intended User and Use of the Appraisal
The intended user of this appraisal is City of Miami Beach Public Works (client). No additional
intended users are identified or intended. The intended use of this appraisal is for asset valuation for
a possible sale of City-owned land to an adjoining owner.
Definition of Across the Fence Value
The values estimated herein are across the fence values, defined as follows:
Across the Fence Value: In corridor valuation, a value opinion based on
comparison with adjacent lands including consideration of adjustment factors
such as market conditions, real property rights conveyed, and location.1
This estimate of value is often used when valuing a site that is not large enough to be built on by
itself. The valuation estimate considers the value of adjacent buildable sites.
Definition of Real Property Interest Appraised
The real property interest appraised herein is that of the fee simple interest, defined as follows:
Fee Simple Interest: an absolute fee without limitations to any particular
class of heirs, but subject to the limitations of eminent domain, escheat, police

Definition of Market Value
Market Value is the major focus of most real property appraisal assignments. Both economic and
legal definitions of market value have been developed and refined.1 The Uniform Standards of
Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) states Market Value is “a type of value, stated as an opinion,
that presumes the transfer of property (i.e., a right of ownership or a bundle of such rights), as of a
certain date, under specific conditions set forth in the definition of the term identified by the appraiser
as applicable in the appraisal”.2 This requires the appraiser to identify the definition of market value
and its authority.
The definition that follows is the basis of the valuation in this appraisal and the source is the
Interagency Appraisal and Evaluation Guidelines; December 10, 2010, Federal Register, Volume 75
Number 237, Page 77472.
Market Value is defined as “the most probable price which a property should bring in a
competitive and open market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and seller
each acting prudently and knowledgeably, and assuming the price is not affected by undue
stimulus. Implicit in this definition are the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and
the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby:
Buyer and seller are typically motivated;
Both parties are well informed or well advised, and acting in what they consider their own best
interests;
A reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market;
Payment is made in terms of cash in U.S. dollars or in terms of financial arrangements
comparable thereto; and
The price represents the normal consideration for the property sold unaffected by special or
creative financing or sales concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale.”3
This market value definition is referenced within the appraisal regulations of the following
governmental agencies:

Supply and Demand
Market conditions for residential real estate in Miami-Dade County showed significant improvement
after the sharp declines that followed the recent recession and financial crisis, with properties at the
most desirable locations seeing very significant improvement prior to 2015. Demand for larger single-
family parcels on the waterfront grew to be very strong, and due to the relative scarcity of vacant
waterfront land many of the sales occurring during the period 2013-2015 have been of parcels
improved with single-family residences (in many cases structures in good condition that were
marketed for sale as luxury residences), but which were purchased with the intent to demolish and
build new. However, demand for luxury residential real estate has declined during the past few
quarters, with those segments of the market that had recently experienced the most dramatic gains
shown indications of sharply reduced demand. This has been observed in the market for luxury and
ultra-luxury residential condominium and single-family product. Thus, the demand for land suitable
for development of ultra-luxury residences has shown a marked retreat during recent months amid
growing uncertainty about the immediate prospects for the market values of finished residential
product.
The charts on the following page show recent data from the Multiple Listing System for sales in
Miami-Dade County of vacant waterfront single-family lots selling at $1,000,000 and above during
the period November 2013 through October 2016. The first chart is a scatter plot showing the actual
sales prices. The dotted line is the trendline representing the linear regression on the data plotted. The
second chart is based on the same data, but shows the number of sales by quarter arrayed by price tier
(sales prices under $5,000,000, $5,000,000 to under $10,000,000, and $10,000,000 and above). The
data generally shows a sharp decline after early 2015 both in sales activity in general and in sales of
lots in the upper price tiers, with a more recent increase in activity during the last two quarters in the
lower price tiers. This recent trend may be a sign that some of the demand in the upper price tiers has
shifted down to lower-priced product.
A good indication of the sharp slowing down in the rate of growth in market values for waterfront
residential land is provided by Sales 1 and 5 considered in the sales comparison approach. These are
similar properties selling in August and May of 2016, respectively, both for approximately $412 per
square foot. Note that Sale 1 had previously sold in November 2012 for $3,400,000, and Sale 5 had
previously sold in April 2014 for $3,650,000. The 2016 sales prices represent average monthly
increases of 2.03% for Sale 1 (over the 45 months ending in August 2016), and .74% for Sale 5 (over
the 25 months ending in May 2016). Since the more recent sales occurred around the same time (and
the properties are otherwise relatively similar), the much faster rate of growth in the value of the Sale
1 property suggests that the rate of growth in market values between late 2012 and early 2014 (the
period reflected by the Sale 1 property only) was much faster than the rate of growth between early
2014 and mid-2016 (the period reflected by both properties).

At present, there are 12 active listings in the MLS for waterfront residential land priced $10,000,000
and above, 19 priced $5,000,000 to under $10,000,000, and 45 in the $1,000,000 to under $5,000,000
range. This is a total of 76 listings in the same overall price range reflected in the previous sales data,
which showed total sales in this price range declining from eight or nine per quarter in early 2014 to
four or less per quarter since early 2015. At the current rate of absorption, the data indicates th at the
market will take several years to absorb existing available supply. Based on the data, the overhang of
supply (as indicated by the active listings) relative to demand (as indicated by recent sales activity)
appears to be greatest in the upper price tiers.
In addition to the above data, other market evidence, including discussions with market participants
active in the market for luxury residential product, supports the conclusion that demand increased
very rapidly during 2013, 2014 and leading into 2015, but pulled back sharply during 2016. The
preceding analysis indicates that, after significant increases during the period leading up to 2015,
demand for luxury waterfront residential real estate in Miami-Dade County has recently declined,
causing a slowing in the pace of sales activity. This is most notable in the upper price tiers, where a
significant gap between current absorption rates and the level of available inventory indicates that
competing supply is likely to exert significant downward pressure on prices in the near term.

Exposure Time
Exposure time is the “estimated length of time that the property interest being appraised would have
been offered on the market prior to the hypothetical consummation of a sale at market value on the
effective date of the appraisal. Exposure time is a retrospective opinion based on an analysis of past
events assuming a competitive and open market”1.
This analysis considers the exposure time at a market related price such as the estimated market value
herein. In estimating exposure time, sales are analyzed, real estate brokers and property owners are
interviewed and statistics from published surveys are considered. Based on data obtained from the
MLS, the median number of days on the market for waterfront single-family residential lots selling
for $5,000,000 and up in Miami-Dade County since November 1, 2013 was 229, based on a sample
of 20 sales. Lower priced waterfront lots tended to sell in less time. Note that the market analysis
indicates that market conditions are weakening, with demand losing strength and the level of
competing supply increasing. In the near term, this is likely to lengthen the exposure time necessary
to achieve a sale at market value.
The exposure time for the subject is estimated at nine to 12 months. This estimate considers that the
property would have been properly marketed and priced. If the property were not to have been priced
correctly or marketed through proper channels, then it is not likely that neither the estimated market
value nor the estimated exposure time would have been achieved.
Marketing Time
Marketing time differs from exposure time which is presumed to precede the effective date of
appraisal. It is an opinion of the amount of time it might take to sell a real or personal property interest
at the concluded market value level during the period immediately after the effective date of an
appraisal. The main parcel is a large waterfront lot in a very desirable location, but under market
conditions that are shifting from recent strength to a weakening trend, and an increasing amount of
available competing product. These factors are likely to cause marketing times to increase in the near
term. The marketing time is estimated at 12 to 15 months. This assumes that the property is properly
marketed and priced correctly.
Typical Purchaser of the Subject
The value herein is based on an “across the fence value” which assumes a value based on being a
buildable site. If the subject property was of sufficient size to be developed, the t ypical purchaser
would be a residential builder, or a private owner, to construct a single-family residence.

Highest and Best Use
The site is valued for its highest and best use, which may be defined as follows:
That reasonable and probable use that will support value
as defined as of the effective date of the appraisal.
In analyzing the highest and best use, the following four questions are answered:
1. Legally Permissible. What uses are legally permitted on the subject site with respect
to zoning ordinances and deed restrictions?
2. Physically Possible. What uses of those legally allowed are physically possible on
the subject site?
3. Financially Feasible. Of those uses determined to be physically possible and legally
permissible, which ones will produce a positive return?
4. Maximally Productive. Of those that are feasible, legally permissible, and physically
possible, which will produce the highest rate of return or value?
As Vacant
The zoning on the adjacent parcel is RS-2, Single Family Residence District by the city of Miami
Beach, FL, which is assumed to be the zoning for the subject property. The subject was a desirable
location. Based on the only use allowed by zoning, the highest and best use is for construction of a
single-family residence.
As Improved
The subject property is vacant land and therefore an analysis of the highest and best use as improved
is not applicable.

Waronker & Rosen, Inc. Real Estate Appraisers & Consultants 33
Appraisal Process
An analysis of three separate approaches to value; sales comparison approach, cost approach, and
income capitalization approach, will be considered to estimate the value of the subject property.
Although these three approaches to value are considered within every appraisal report, they may not
be applicable to every property being appraised.
The cost approach is based on the principle of substitution which states that an informed purchaser
would not pay more for a property than the cost of reproducing a property with the same utility. The
cost approach can often yield reliable estimates of value for new construction. This approach entails
estimating the cost of producing the improvements, deducting an estimate of depreciation, then
adding the value of the site as if vacant. To this value an entrepreneurial incentive is added to arrive
at the estimated value by the cost approach.
The income capitalization approach is based on the concept that value is created by the expectations
of future benefits and higher earnings should result in higher values. Income producing real estate is
purchased for the right to receive future income. The income capitalization approach consists of
methods to analyze a property's capacity to generate income, and a reversion, and co nvert these
monetary benefits into an estimate of value.
The sales comparison approach is based on the principle of substitution which suggests that, within
competitive markets, similar products will realize similar prices. Inherent in this concept is th e
premise that a purchaser would not pay more for a property than the cost to acquire another property
with the same amenities and utility.
The final steps in the appraisal process are review and reconciliation of the data and conclusions. In
reaching a conclusion of value, the entire process involving the approaches that were estimated must
be reviewed for accuracy, completeness and consistency. After analysis, evaluation and reconciliation
of the indications a value is estimated. The essence of this final reconciliation should be a defensible
and rational conclusion of value.
The only approach used in this appraisal is the sales comparison approach. The income capitalization
approach and the cost approach are not applicable to the valuation of the subject property.
Page 188 of 376
Cost Approach Land Valuation, 5860 N Bay Road, Miami Beach, FL 33140
Waronker & Rosen, Inc. Real Estate Appraisers & Consultants 34
Cost Approach
The basis of the cost approach is the principle of substitution. This principle suggests that a prudent
buyer would not pay more for a property than the cost to acquire a similar site and construct
comparable improvements.
Following are the procedures for preparing the cost approach.
1. Estimate the value of the land as though vacant and available to be developed to its highest and best
use.
2. Determine which cost basis is most applicable to the assignment: reproduction cost or replacement
cost.
3. Estimate the direct (hard) and indirect (soft) costs of the improvements as of the effective appraisal
date.
4. Estimate an appropriate entrepreneurial profit or incentive from analysis of the market.
5. Add estimated direct costs, indirect costs, and the entrepreneurial profit or incentive to arrive at the
total cost of the improvements.
6. Estimate the amount of depreciation in the structure and, if necessary, allocate it among the three major
categories: physical deterioration, functional obsolescence, and external obsolescence.
7. Deduct the estimated depreciation from the total cost of the improvements to derive an estimate of
their depreciated cost.
8. Estimate the contributory value of any site improvements that have not already been considered. (Site
improvements are often appraised at their contributory value - i.e., directly on a depreciated-cost basis
- but may be included in the overall cost calculated in Step 3 and depreciated, if necessary).
9. Add land value to the total depreciated cost of all the improvements to develop the market value of
the property.
10. Adjust for personal property (e.g., furniture, fixtures, and equipment) or intangible assets that are
included in the appraisal.
11. Adjust the value conclusion, which reflects the value of the fee simple estate, for the property interest
being appraised to arrive at the indicated value of the specified interest in the property. 1
As the subject property is unimproved vacant land, the cost approach is not applicable.

Income Capitalization Approach Land Valuation, 5860 N Bay Road, Miami Beach, FL 33140
Waronker & Rosen, Inc. Real Estate Appraisers & Consultants 35
Income Capitalization Approach
Income producing real estate is typically purchased as an investment, and from an investor’s point of
view earning power is the critical element affecting property value. One basic investment premise
holds that the higher the earnings, the higher value, provided the amount of the risk remains constant.
An investor who purchases income-producing real estate is essentially trading present dollars for the
expectation of receiving future dollars. The income capitalization approach to value consists of
methods, techniques, and mathematical procedures that an appraiser uses to analyze a property’s
capacity to generate benefits (i.e., usually the monetary benefits of income and reversion) and convert
these benefits into an indication of present value.1
In the income capitalization approach, an appraiser analyzes a property’s capacity to generate future
benefits and capitalizes the income into an indication of present value. The principle of anticipation
is fundamental to the approach.2
An income capitalization approach was not applied as it was not within the scope of this appraisal.
Since this approach is typically not considered by purchasers of this property type, not using it does
not limit the reliability of the value estimated herein.

Sales Comparison Approach
The sales comparison approach is based on the principle of substitution. The principle of substitution
holds that the value of property tends to be set by the cost of acquiring a substitute or alternative
property of similar utility and desirability within a reasonable amount of time.1
In the Sales Comparison Approach, an opinion of market value is developed by comparing properties
similar to the subject property that have recently sold, are listed for sale, or are under contract (i.e.,
for which purchase offers and a deposit have been recently submitted). A major premise of the sales
comparison approach is that an opinion of the market value of a property can be supported by studying
the market’s reaction to comparable and competitive properties.
Qualitative analysis is a relative comparison process without mathematics . Sales are ranked based
upon their desirability as compared to the subject. Comparisons can be expressed as plus or minus as
opposed to dollar or percentage adjustments.
Quantitative analysis is the process of applying mathematical techniques. Sales are adjusted to the
subject property on a dollar or a percentage basis. One method of supporting adjustments is through
paired data analysis. This method analyzes two sales and attributes the difference in their sales prices
to the characteristic which is different. This analysis requires an abundance of sales data which is
frequently not available.
Qualitative analysis is used herein to estimate a value by the sales comparison approach.
Characteristics of the sales considered superior to the subject are given a minus (-) adjustment. Those
characteristics of the sales considered inferior to the subject are given a plus (+) adjustment. Each
sale is given an overall adjustment indicating how it compares to the subject.

Comments
This waterfront residential tract is an assemblage of two adjoining parcel purchased from separate sellers
over a period of one year. Parcel 1 (5370 N Bay Rd.) is a 12,759-square feet site acquired in June 2014
for $6,500,000 ($509.44 per square feet). Parcel 2 (5350 N Bay Rd., adjacent to Parcel 1 on its south side)
is a 12,680-square feet site acquired in June 2015 for $ 7,250,000 ($571.77 per square feet). The buyer is
the owner of the adjoining residence along the north side of Parcel 1 (5380 N Bay Rd.). The entity buying
Parcel 2 is under control of the buyer. In December 2014, the buye r filed for unity of title to combine
Parcel 1 with the adjoining property (5380 N Bay Rd.). After purchasing Parcel 2 in June 2015, the buyer
applied to split the recently combined parcels and combine Parcel 1 with Parcel 2 into a single lot, with
plans for a new single family residence on the combined property. The proposal indicates that the existing
residence at 5380 N Bay Rd. will remain unmodified and not be a part of the new property. The new
combined site has a total land area of 25,439 square feet with approximately 160 linear feet of water
frontage with unobstructed bay views, and was acquired at a total cost of $13,750,000, or $540.51 per
square feet

This is a "tip" lot located on the northeast side of Pine Tree Drive Circle, a small street that loops
between La Gorce Drive and Pine Tree Drive. It benefits from wide water views facing north toward
La Gorce Island and east toward Allison Island. Total water frontage is approximately 360 feet. The
seller had purchased the property in February 2014 and demolished an existing structure. This
transaction occurred on the same day as a separate transaction between the same parties involving a
different property, a commercial parcel in downtown Miami. In the other deal, the buyer on this deal
was the seller, and vice versa. The broker on this deal confirmed both that the two parties are
unrelated, and that the two transactions are independent of each other (the prices paid in each
transaction being a market price unrelated to the other transaction).

Adjustment Grid – Waterfront Sales
Below is a grid which illustrates qualitative adjustments used to compare the comparable sales to the
subject property. Percentage adjustments were not utilized. To utilize percentage adjustments, it
would be necessary to pair (compare) sales to extract value differences. This is difficult as there is
normally insufficient data to provide pairings for all value differences. Below is a grid which
illustrates the adjustments made. A plus (+) sign indicates the unit of comparison of the sale must be
adjusted upward as that characteristic is inferior to the subject. A minus (–) sign indicates the unit of
comparison of the sale must be adjusted downward since the characteristic is superior to the subject.
An equal (=) sign indicates the comparable sale characteristic is similar to the subject.

Conclusion of Value – Waterfrontage
The sales comparison approach compared similar properties and adjustments were made for the
pertinent characteristics. Based on these comparisons a value was estimated for water front property.
Sale prices per square foot range from $402 to $541.
Comparative analysis indicates that adjustments are required for market conditions, location, water
frontage/views, and size/shape. In addition, an adjustment is required for Sale 3 for conditions of sale.
No adjustment is required for zoning.
Market conditions adjustments consider the change in overall market conditions during the period
between the date of the sale and the valuation date. Note that the market analysis indicates that market
values increased sharply between 2014 and 2015, but declined slightly since 2015. Therefore, the
market conditions adjustment for Sale 2 (which occurred in 2014) reflects values increasing
significantly and then declining slightly (a net increase), whereas the adjustments for Sales 3 and 4
(which occurred during 2015) reflect a slight decline.
Location adjustments consider general characteristics of the site and overall desirability of the area.
The desirability of a location is influenced by many factors. The adjustments shown reflect the
combined influence of all factors on balance.
Water frontage/views consider the extent of water frontage in proportion to the lot area and the quality
and desirability of water views.
Size/shape adjustments consider the tendency for larger lots to sell for a lower price per square foot,
based on the diminishing value of additional land area above a minimum threshold amount needed to
support construction of a residence suitable for the property. Also considered was the greater
desirability of more square-like and rectangular shapes in comparison to highly irregular and
elongated shapes which tend to constrain design choices and raise construction costs (though the
influence of shape irregularity on values per square foot diminishes with increasing lot size).
Note that Sale 2 is located a few parcels south of the of the subject property. After the November
2014 sale at $15,250,000 ($402 per square feet) this property was listed for sale in June 2015 with an
asking price of $19,950,000 ($526 per square feet) and taken off the market in December 2015. It
was then re-listed in April 2016 with an asking price of $16,900,000 ($446 per square feet). It remains
available at that price.
On balance, the comparative analysis indicates that the estimated value should achieve a sale price
per square foot above Sales 1, 2 and 5 (a range of $402 to $413), and below Sales 3 and 4 ($541 and
$467, respectively). Consideration was also given to the sale in May 2014 of the adjacent parcel at
$395 per square foot. A value between $413 and $467 per square foot, equal to $440 per square foot
is supported by the analysis for waterfront land. This represents an increase of 11.4% since the most

Valuation of the Subject Property – Non-Waterfrontage
The subject property has 25 feet of street frontage and a depth of 193 to 204 feet, but lacks water
frontage. It extends to a point 30 feet from the water’s edge. It does benefit from water views looking
west and northwest over the 30 feet at the northwest corner of the main parcel, but note that because
the City proposes to retain an easement over the subject property for public utilities, no construction
on the subject property would be possible.
The subject property is a City- owned parcel and is unlike any other parcel based on its location, size
and shape. Only general comparisons can be made to other parcels. Generally, subject property is
inferior to other properties on the west side of North Bay Road as it lacks waterfrontage. At the subject
location, where large single-family parcels with substantial water frontage are among the most
valuable in the region, this is a significant factor. However, the location is considered superior to
otherwise similar non-waterfront parcels (including those on the east side of N Bay Road) because
land on the west side of N Bay Road benefits from proximity to the water. These considerations
indicate that, in estimating the across the fence value for the subject property, a downward adjustment
to the value per square foot of waterfrontage for location is estimated. Also, a positive adjustment for
location is indicated with respect to the sales of dry parcels (discussed on the following pages).
Below is a summary grid of several additional sales of non-waterfront parcels in the area. The

Conclusion of Land Value – Non-Waterfrontage
For simplicity, the following analysis excludes consideration of the effect of the easement. In other
words, the supplemental sales are considered first in comparison to the subject property assuming no
easement. The effect of the easement on the value of the subject property is considered separately in
a following discussion.
All the supplemental sales are recent sales of similar sized dry lots located close to the subject
property. Sales 7 and 9 are located across the street from waterfront parcels and Sale 8 is located
across the street from parcels fronting the La Gorce golf course. These sales occurred in February
2016 in the range of $144 to $155 per square foot. Sale 6 at $108 per square feet occurred in August
2015 and is located several streets further in from the water. Sale 10 at $118 per square feet occurred
in April 2016 but is disadvantaged by its location directly on Alton Road, a high-traffic street in
comparison to the other sales and the subject.
In terms of location, Sales 6 and 10 at $108 and $118 per square feet are very inferior to the subject,
and Sales 7, 8 and 9 at $143 to $155 are inferior. On balance, the analysis indicates that a value per
square foot is between the market value of waterfront land ($440) and the range indicated b y the
supplemental non-waterfront sales ($108 to $155). A reconciled value closer to the indication by the
non-waterfront sales would be appropriate. The concluded value for the subject property which
considers it is not waterfront, however is located on the west side of North Bay Road, is $200 per
square foot. A value of $200 per square feet times 4,973 square feet indicates a value for the subject
property of $995,000 (rounded), before consideration of the impact of the City of Miami Beach
easement.
Discussion of the Impact of the Easement on Value
The subject property is encumbered by an easement that would prohibit any construction on the entire
25-foot width of the tract. The City indicated that the easement would permit non-attached items such
as patio furniture, and would allow a fence to be constructed around the perimeter. Also, allowed
would be a paved patio area (such as brick pavers) and other types of landscaping. However, any
permanent structures that would require footings or a foundation would be prohibited. The easement
would give the City the right to periodically enter the area, remove any fencing, paving, trees and
landscaping, and excavate to make repairs or modifications to underground facilities. The City would
be obligated only to return the work area to a typical landscaped condition (e.g. sod and standard type
shrubs). In practice, this sort of work is done very infrequently, and the City has been known to
perform more extensive restoration work than just sod and shrubs. However, easement provides no
guarantees beyond the obligations stated above, and does give the City the right to access its
underground facilities at any time.
Having the easement on the subject property reduces the utility of the site as it will not allow for
construction. The result would be a site that could be used for parking, open areas, landscaping and
other uses that do not require construction.

Sales Comparison Approach Land Valuation, 5860 N Bay Road, Miami Beach, FL 33140
Waronker & Rosen, Inc. Real Estate Appraisers & Consultants 49
Estimating the loss in value due to the easement is difficult. There are instances where a utility
company, such as FPL, will sell land under a powerline easement that will not allow any construction,
however can be used for parking. Historically these type sites sold at discounts from 25%+/- to 90%
of the fee simple values of adjoining sites.
A lot of the price differences considers the buyers and their respective needs for land that was adjacent
to their existing use. In part, an adjustment for an easement of this type is subjective. In the case of
the subject property, the adjacent owner would likel y pay a greater amount as it would increase the
allowable buildable area. However, this appraisal is not an estimate of the value to the adjoining
owner.
Considering the site cannot be built upon, is subject to the potential for the City to access the site for
repairs and maintenance for time periods that are not limited, the value of the subject property is for
surplus land. The adjoining owner could use this site for landscaping, recreational use and possibly
to park cars. The estimated discount is 75% to reflect the restrictions on the site and the inability to
construct on the site. On the following two pages is an analysis which indicates the discount should
be greater than 62.5%. Applying a discount of 75% to the $995,000 estimated fee simple value,
indicates a value of $250,000 ($995,000 – 75%, rounded).
In summary, the subject property has been valued based upon an “across the fence value” to reflect
an estimated value as if it was a buildable site. Next, consideration was given to this site, although
valued as a buildable site, will be restricted by an easement that does not allow construction. As such,
this limits the uses of the site. The adjacent owner would be the likely only purchaser that could utilize
the property. This appraisal does not value the site based on a premium that might be paid by the
adjoining owner. It values the site based on an across the fence value, with that value discounted for
the inability to construct on the site and the effects of the easement.
On the following page is an analysis of the effect of the buildable area that would be gained by the
adjoining property owner by acquiring the subject property.

Analysis of Setbacks and Potential for Increased Buildable Area
The following analysis considers the effect of the easement. To understand the effect of the easement
on what could be constructed on the combined site, the following analysis considers the changes
resulting from the addition of the subject property to the adjoining parcel.
For the subject parcel, the RS-2 zoning district stipulates interior side yard setbacks of 10% of lot
width, a front yard setback of 20 feet, and a rear yard setback of 15% of lot depth. It also imposes a
maximum lot coverage of 30% of lot area for two-story homes, making it unlikely for the typical
design to reach the setback limits on all four sides.
Following is an analysis of the effects of the buildable frontage if the subject property is added to the
adjacent parcel.
Adjacent Parcel Existing Setbacks
The existing setbacks for the buildable width are 10% each on the north and south sides. Based on
the 100 feet of frontage the deducts total 20 feet, leaving a buildable width of 80 feet. 100 feet less
10% for each setback).
Adjacent Parcel Setbacks with the Subject Property Added
The existing setbacks for the buildable width are 10% each on the north and south sides. If the subject
property is added to the adjacent property, the total frontage would be 125 feet. Based on the 125 feet
of frontage the deducts total 25 feet, leaving a buildable width of 80 feet (125 feet less 10% for each
setback).
Adjacent Parcel Setbacks with the Subject Property Added and with the Easement
If the subject property is added to the adjacent property, the total frontage would b e 125 feet. If the
subject property’s easement not to allow construction is considered, the 25 feet of the subject property
cannot be constructed upon and therefore the north set back would be 25 feet. Based on the 125 feet
of frontage the south set back would be 12.5%. (125 feet times 10%). This leaves buildable frontage
of 87.5 feet (125 feet less 25 feet for the north setback and less 12.5 feet for the south setback).
To estimate a discount attributed to the subject property considered was the effect of the easement if
the subject property were combined with the adjacent parcel. As analyzed above, without the
easement on the subject property, the buildable foot print width would have increased from 80 feet
to 100 feet when adding the subject property to the adjoining site. Because of the easement, the
buildable foot print width would only increase to 87.5 feet. This means that because of the easement
the buildable width decreased from 20 feet to 7.5 feet, or a discount of 62.5%. This discount does not
reflect the inability to construct on the easement and the inability to construct a wall to enclose the
area. These additional restrictions place downward pressure on the value and indicates a discount
should be greater than 62.5%. The above scenario assumes that construction could take place right
on the property line. Because the easement does not allow construction it might be necessary to
setback an additional one to two feet. Applying the same calculations, the implied discount would
increase to 67.5% to 72.5%.

Reconciliation of Value
The reconciliation process considers the approaches which were utilized in this report. Each approach
to value is analyzed as to its reliability and applicability. These approaches indicated the following
values:
Cost Approach Not applicable
Income Capitalization Approach Not applicable
Sales Comparison Approach $250,000
The cost approach estimates the land value and adds the depreciated value of the improvements. As
the land being appraised is vacant, this approach is not applicable and was not applied herein.
The income capitalization approach analyzes the projected income and expenses of a property and
capitalizes the net income into a value estimate. Typically, vacant land is not purchased based on its
ability to generate income. This approach is not applicable and was not applied herein.
The sales comparison approach compares sales of similar properties to the subject property and is the
only applicable approach to value. These sales were analyzed for differences such as conditions of
sale, financing, market conditions, location, zoning, shape/size, and other characteristics. The
strength of this approach relies on the quality of the comparable sales. Sales which closely resemble
and can be compared easily with the subject are most desirable. The sales utilized were considered
comparable and make the sales comparison approach the only reliable indication of value. The sales
comparison approach was used to estimate the across the fence value of the subject property. The
estimated value was discounted to reflect a decrease in value based upon the easement that would be
in place.
As the subject property is vacant land total reliance was placed on the sales comparison approach.
Based on the analysis, the market value of the subject property, subject to an easement, as of
November 23, 2016, is estimated at $250,000.
This appraisal report contains extraordinary assumptions. The reader is strongly advised to be
familiar with the definition of an extraordinary assumption because it is significant in
understanding the premise of this appraisal. The definition is detailed on page 3 in the letter
of transmittal. It is applicable to this appraisal because a change in the extraordinary
assumptions could cause a change in the opinions and conclusions herein.

Miami-Dade County and Area Description
General Overview
Miami-Dade County, often referred to as “Miami” is known internationally for its weather, beaches,
banking, fine art, shopping, and Latin culture. While many pass through the Cruise Capital of the
World, 2.5 million people call it home.
Miami-Dade County is at the southeastern tip of Florida and is the south-easternmost state in the
continental United States. Its land area is approximately 1,946 square miles and is bordered by
Broward, Collier, and Monroe Counties to the north, southwest, and south, respectively. The county
is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the East and Everglades National Park to the West.
Demographics
As of the 2013 Census report, Miami-Dade County has 2,496,435 residents. Over half of those were
born outside the United States; 70 percent fall between the ages of 25 and 55. As depicted in the
following graph, the county’s population has risen steadily since 1970.

Miami has a positive reputation for international business, and developers are marketing their new
projects to those individuals. Therefore, the county’s population is expected to increase at an even
greater rate approaching the year 2020.
Miami is the largest city in the County. Other populous municipalities include Hialeah, Miami
Gardens, Miami Beach, and unincorporated land. Actively growing are some new cities since 2000
such as Cutler Bay and Doral.
Brief History
Miami was founded in 1866 after the end of Spanish rule in Florida. Before the turn of the century,
prominent figures such as William and Mary Brickell and Henry Flagler established a community
and connected the young city to the rest of the United States. Island people moved here for work.
In 1910, John Collins discovered fresh water on Miami Beach, and within a decade, the population
soared, and businessmen bought up the land. The city quickly became a popular spot for tourists, but
it crumbled under the hurricane of 1926. During the decades of war, parts of Miami-Dade County
became training grounds for military. Residents then slowly built back up the tourism industry.
The early 1960's marked the beginning of the arrival of large numbers of Cuban Refugees into Miami-
Dade County and South Florida. In the years following, significant numbers of immigrants have come
from Haiti, Cuba and other Latin American countries.
Government
Miami-Dade County has a strong mayor form of government, with nine elected individuals (one
mayor and eight commissioners) making up the Miami-Dade County Board of Commissioners. The
mayor appoints a professional administrator to manage the daily activities of the county government
and a county attorney to handle its legal matters.
Some governmental activities, services and functions previously handled by individual municipalities
are now handled by the county. Among these are real property assessment and valuation, health and
welfare, most water and sewers, traffic engineering, public libraries, public transportation, public
housing, urban renewal, seaport, airport, regional parks and air and water pollution control. In
addition to these, Miami-Dade County provides services to the unincorporated areas of the county
such as: police and fire protection, building and zoning regulation, trash and garbage collection and
disposal, parks and recreation, consumer protection and corrections and rehabilitation of ad ults and
youth offenders.

Economic Base
The primary industries that support Miami-Dade County’s economy through employment are trade,
transportation and utilities, followed by education/health services and government. The most known
is tourism, a major industry for Miami-Dade County. The following chart reflects the county’s
demographics by trade, with tourism ranking the highest number of companies, followed by retail
and finance, insurance and real estate.

A year-round growing season allows the agricultural industry to be the top vegetable supplier and
producer in the country. The industry employs more than 20,000 people and produces more than
$2.7 billion in economic benefits each year. As a result, agritourism has sprouted an industry
throughout the agricultural area where visitors can sample and purchase locally grown products.

Transportation
Miami International Airport (MIA) and its linkages are considered to be the driving force for growth
behind its surrounding area. Airport traffic in 2013 included over 40 million passengers, 2 million
tons of freight, and 2 million tons of cargo. Other airports within the county include Kendall-Tamiami
Airport and Opa-locka Executive Airport. The aviation industry directly and indirectly contributes
$26.7 billion and 282,043 jobs to the local economy.
PortMiami annual activity includes 4.3 million cruise passengers and 7.4 million tons of cargo. The
port contributes more than $27 billion annually to the South Florida economy and helps provide direct
and indirect employment for more than 207,000 individuals. It had been undergoing construction for
a two-way underwater tunnel between the port and downtown Miami. The Deep Dredge Project, set
to deepen the channel from its current 42-foot depth to minus 50 feet in order to accommodate super
cargo ships has been completed in 2015.
Within Miami-Dade County, major roads include the Palmetto Expressway (State Road No. 826), a
major north/south expressway; the Dolphin Expressway (State Road No. 836), a major east/west
expressway; Interstate 95 and the Florida Turnpike. All of these represent Miami's expressway
network and make almost any destination in Miami-Dade County within 30 to 45 minutes driving
time.
Transportation systems include a Busway in south Miami-Dade County linking to Metrorail, an
elevated rail rapid transit system connecting portions of Miami-Dade County. In July 2012, a new
Metrorail station in MIA links south Miami-Dade County, downtown Miami and the entire elevated
rail line. The enables seamless connections to the Metromover systems and to a web of transportation
arteries in neighboring counties leading to the rest of Florida.
The Miami Intermodal Center (MIC) links the airport, East/West Rail, Amtrak, Tri-Rail,
Airport/Seaport Connector and Metrorail mainline rail. Located near the State Road No. 836/State
Road 112 Connector, it presently contains the bulk of the rental car agencies. East of the airport in
the future it will contain retail, commercial, residential and tourist-designed development.
The Metromover automated people mover system is located in downtown Miami and is an off-shoot
of the Metrorail system. There are also Metrobus buses, most of which are in service daily throughout
the county. The Metromover system includes the Brickell Avenue financial district and also runs
north to the Omni area. Other transportation services in Miami-Dade County include Tri-Rail,
railroads and taxicabs. Railroad service by Amtrak is accessible in northwest Miami-Dade. Tri-Rail
is South Florida's commuter train system which services Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach
Counties.
Education
Based upon student population, the Miami-Dade County School system is the fourth largest public
school system in the nation with 415 institutions including elementary, middle, high, K -8, charter,
alternative and magnet schools. Many private institutions exist as well.

Waronker & Rosen, Inc. Real Estate Appraisers & Consultants 58
Several colleges and universities located in the county are University of Miami, Barry University,
Florida International University, Miami-Dade Community College, St. Thomas University, Florida
Memorial College and Johnson & Wales University.
Medical
Miami-Dade County has the largest concentration of medical facilities in Florida. The largest
institution is Jackson Memorial Medical Center, the second largest public hospital in the nation which
shares many teaching, treatment and research capacities with the University of Miami. Private
hospitals include Baptist Health System, Mercy, Miami Children’s, and Mount Sinai.
Sports
Professional, college and even local neighborhood sports draw spectators, participants and investors
to a high degree and create a positive atmosphere. Professional football (Miami Dolphins), basketball
(Miami Heat), baseball (Miami Marlins) and ice hockey (Florida Panthers) are continual draws. As
of January 2014, business negotiations are currently underway to bring Major League Soccer to
Miami. There are two horse tracks and a dog track. Several of these tracks have been approved for
slot gambling or table gambling, depending upon location in a municipality or Indian reservation.
Also offered are golf, tennis, as well as the numerous water sports, given the significant bodies of
water.
Arts and Culture
Known for the wealth of ethnic diversity and heritage, Miami-Dade County has a cultural mix of
festivals, concerts, theater, and dance performances. Adrienne Arsht for the Performing Arts of
Miami-Dade County opened in 2006 and is home to the Concert Association of Florida, Florida Grand
Opera, Miami City Ballet, and the New World Symphony. The county is also home to several
museums and wildlife attractions.
Summary
During its history, Miami-Dade County and the Greater Miami area have experienced significant
changes and growth. Trends indicate that the growth will continue with Miami-Dade County rapidly
becoming an international city with a diverse culture. The economic base and the bilingual population
should continue to attract new residents and businesses into Greater Miami.

C ollins Avenue (the “F aci lity”), was referred to the F inance & C itywide P rojects C ommittee by C ommissioner J oy
Malakoff.
The F oundation’s concept for the F acility, which would be a C ity-owned building under the aegis of the C ity’s P arks
and Recreation D epartment, represents the F oundation’s attempt to (1) build on the successful implementation of the
adaptive beach days that provide disabled persons with the abi lity to enjoy the C ity’s beaches; and (2) respond to the
main communi ty concerns and objections raised with respect to an earlier proposed project at a different locati on,
A llison P ark.
There is precedent in the C ity for similar arrangements involving not-for-profits. The C ity partnered with the B oys and
Girls C lub for the construction of a facility in F lamingo P ark to offer programming for children. The C ity entered into a
Management A greement with Unidad in connection with the construction and operation of a senior citizen center in
B andshell P ark i n North B each.
T he Administration conducted its first phase of community outreach inviting the three neighboring
condominiums to a public input/informational meeting on April 17, 2017, where City Staff, Sabrina
Cohen and Miami Beach Residents discussed the location and operation of the potential Center.
One of the top concerns for the residents was available parking at lot P72. Residents voiced their
concern over insufficient parking and that the Center should be built at a different other location. T he
Parking Department was asked to provide data regarding P72 usage. Parking survey data shows
P72 has 139 park spaces and on average 53% of the lot is empty.
A t the A pri l 21, 2017 F inance and C itywide P rojects C ommittee (“F inance C ommittee”), this i tem was discussed
and direction was gi ven for the C ity to continue to develop an agreement.
A t the July 26, 2017 C ity C ommission meeti ng, following public input and discussi on, the Mayor and C i ty
C ommission endorsed the concept for the C enter, and referred the proposed A greement to the F inance and
C itywide P rojects C ommittee (“F inance C ommi ttee”) for further review and comment.
A t the J uly 28, 2017 F inance C ommi ttee meeting, the F inance C ommittee discussed the terms of the proposed
A greement, provided additional direction to the A dministrati on and C ity A ttorney’s Office with regard to proposed
terms for the A greement, and provided the public with an additional opportunity to comment on the proposed
A greement.
A t the J uly 28, 2017 F inance C ommittee meeting, the F inance C ommittee requested additional terms or
clarifications to the A greement, including the following:
i. The F aci lity shall not be used as a hall for hi re, banquet hall or similar venue;
ii. No alcohol sales shall be permitted at the F acility (provided, however, that the F oundation may serve alcoholic
beverages as part of fundraisers that may take place at the C enter from time to time);
Page 229 of 376
iii. C larifying requirements related to the F oundation’s concept desi gn submittals, which shall be subject to C i ty
C ommission approval, and which shall speci fically include landscaped, vegetative green roof elements for the
F acility, and ensure that access to the beach i s not blocked;
iv. Milestones and ti meline for the F oundation to conduct its fund-raising for the project, based on the C oncept
P lan approved by the C ity C ommission, with a fundraising period of three years following the C i ty
C ommission’s approval of the C oncept P lan, and with the C ity retaining the right to terminate the agreement in
the event the milestones are not achieved;
v. C ity to retain the abi lity to close the C enter for up to fourteen (14) days per year to accommodate high impact
C ity-wide events, such as the annual boat show; and
vi. The C ity Manager or his or her designee to serve as a voting member on the F oundation’s B oard of
D irectors.
A t the S eptember 20, 2017 F inance C ommittee meeti ng, the F inance C ommittee considered a revised draft of the
proposed A greement (i ncorporating the F inance C ommittee’s J uly 28, 2017 comments, as well as other negotiated
terms), heard additional public input and comment, and favorably recommended that the C ity C ommission approve
this A greement. In addition, at the F inance C ommi ttee meeting, counsel for an adjacent condominium made certain
factual assertions concerning the number of parking spaces at the P 72 L ot, and claimed that 35 of the 139 public
parking spaces at the P 72 lot were reserved for F ire D epartment personnel and not available to the public. However,
the C ity’s P arki ng D epartment has subsequently confirmed that while there is a parking area behind the F ire S tati on
with 35 spaces for use by the F ire D epartment, those 35 parking spaces are separate from the 139 parking spaces
in the public parking lot available for use by the general public. F urther, the parking utilization data referenced in this
Memorandum, indicating that the P 72 L ot is underutilized, only surveyed utilizati on of the 139 parking spaces, and
did not take into account any utilization of the separate 35 parking spaces reserved for the F ire D epartment.
P R OP OS E D AGR E E MEN T T E R MS
The proposed A greement, as revi sed to i ncorporate the comments provi ded by the F inance C ommittee on J uly 28,
2017 and S eptember 20, 2017, includes the followi ng key terms, among other negotiated revisions:
The F oundation, as a public charity, wi ll raise 100% of the funding required for the desi gn, development and
construction of a C ity-owned F acility, with no C ity funds used for the development of the Facility.
The C ity would not proceed with the design and constructi on of the F acility until the F oundati on has raised
sufficient funds for desi gn and construction, and has transferred such funds to the C ity. Within six months
following the executi on of the A greement, the F oundation shall submit a draft concept plan, including a
proposed operating plan with suffi ci ent detail to enable the C ity to accurately esti mate the construction costs,
the costs of F F &E , and the operation and maintenance costs of the F acility.
The City would be the owner of the Facility, with the primary purpose of provi ding the general public and
specifically, persons with physical and cognitive di sabilities, including seniors living with disabilities, and able-
bodied individuals with temporary injuries, with an accessible access point to the beach and related beach
programming. In the event the F oundation is unable to operate the C enter, the C ity will exerci se good faith
efforts to identify another qualified vendor to assume the maintenance and programmi ng obligations for the
C enter, and in the event the C ity i s unable to secure an agreement with another qualified vendor, the C enter
shall be used for the most closely related P arks D epartment purposes, which may include general wellness
programming, i n combination with beach accessi bility programming.
The F oundation’s proposed concept design (“C oncept P lan”) shall be subject to C i ty C ommission approval (in
addition to approvals required by applicable regulatory boards). A t a minimum, the C oncept P lan shall include
Page 230 of 376
landscaped, vegetative “green” roof elements, and shall ensure publi c access to the beach is not blocked. The
F oundation will submit a draft of i ts concept plan, and a proposed operating plan, within si x (6) months
following the execution of the A greement.
F ollowing C ity C ommission approval of the C oncept P lan, the F oundation agrees to a schedule of fundraisi ng
thresholds and deadlines based upon the cost estimates associated with the C oncept P lan (i.e. 25% of funds
raised by end of year one following C i ty C ommissi on’s approval of the C oncept P lan; 50% by end of year two
following C ity C ommission’s approval of the C oncept P lan; and 100% by end of year three following C i ty
C ommission’s approval of the C oncept P lan). The C ity may terminate the agreement if any of the foregoi ng
deliverables and deadlines are not met, following a notice and thirty (30) day cure period.
The F acility would be located on a porti on of the P 72 surface parking lot adjacent to B each Vi ew P ark, with a
footprint of approxi mately 5,000 square feet, and a maximum of two stories (for a total of approximately 10,000
square feet). The final location of the Facility within the P72 Lot shall be determined by the City
Commission as part of the design development process.
The Facility would not impact any greenspace, and would be designed and developed with the intent of
minimizi ng impacts to parking spaces. The C ity shall further have the right to close the F aci lity for up to
fourteen (14) days per year to accommodate high impact C ity-wide special events (such as the boat show).
In no event shall the Facility be used as a hall for hire, banquet hall, or similar third-party venue
rental, or for the sale of alcoholic beverages.
If the F oundati on raises the funding and the F acility is built, the F oundation would also manage and operate
the C enter on the C ity’s behalf, for a term of ni ne (9) years. (The F oundation has offered a nine (9) year term
for its management of the C enter, reduced from the original proposal of a term of ni ne years and 364 days).
A ll operational and maintenance costs would be the responsibility of the F oundation (except for capital repai rs,
if any, which shall be the responsibility of the C ity, in the same manner as the C i ty would ordinarily provide for
other C ity-owned faci lities, and comparable to terms of other C ity management agreements with non-profit
organizations, such as C ity’s agreement wi th Uni dad or the Miami D esign P reservation L eague).
The C ity retains broad ri ghts to termi nate the A greement for its convenience, including, without limitation, if the
F oundation fails to achieve its fundraising milestones within the time specifi ed i n the A greement.
The C ity Manager or his or her designee shall be a voting member of the F oundation’s B oard of D irectors.
If the C ity C ommission decides to accept the F oundation’s proposal, then the C i ty Manager recommends the wai ver
of the formal competi ti ve bidding requirements with respect to the F oundation’s management of the F acility, for a
term of nine (9) years. S peci fi cally, i f the F acility is constructed, it would be in the best i nterest of the C ity to permit
the F oundation to manage and operate the F acility for a term of nine (9) years, in vi ew of (i) the F oundation’s
successful i mplementation of adaptive beach programming i n Miami B each, and (ii) the financi al commitments the
F oundation is undertaking to raise all of the funds for the design and construction of the project, as well as the
maintenance and operation of the F acility (other than capital repairs, which wi ll be the C ity’s responsibility as the
owner of the F acili ty).
F inally, it must be noted that the proposed A greement does not guarantee a project. Rather, the A greement outlines
the framework for the C ity and F oundation to further develop the project, and specifically, for the F oundation to
conduct the fund-raising that will be requi red for the project, wi th initial milestones for progress and funding of the
project.

COMMISSION APPROVAL, WHICH APPROVAL, IF GIVEN AT ALL, SHALL BE AT THE
CITY COMMISSION'S SOLE DISCRETION.
4.3. In order to permit the FOUNDATION time to engage in the necessary

payment of Project Costs.
4.5. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Premises and Center shall be
owned by the City, as a parks and recreation building under the auspices of the City's Parks and
Recreation Department. At all times, City shall retain ownership of the Premises and the

Page 238 of 376
September 20, 2017 DRAFT
available to the City (in its capacity as a public entity), the City, in good faith, may, at its sole
discretion, apply for such grants, provided that the City shall have no obligation to apply for

for the design, development, and construction of the Center are strictly for the Project Costs,
and do not include any additional use restrictions or other commitments that the City
Commission has not previously approved.
SECTION 5. APPROVED PERMITTED USES OF THE ADAPTIVE RECREATION CENTER.
5.1. The City agrees that following the issuance of a final certificate of occupancy for
7
Page 239 of 376
September 20, 2017 DRAFT
the Center, the Center shall be used solely (i) as an adaptive recreation center serving persons
living with physical and cognitive disabilities, seniors living with disabilities, and able-bodied
individuals with temporary injuries; and (ii) for ancillary uses reasonably or logically connected
thereto (such ancillary uses including, without limitation, strength, conditioning, cardio,
resistance training, yoga, meditation, art and music classes, wellness programs or related
activities, charitable fundraisers, specialty sales [such as sunscreen lotion, towels, and the like],
and the sale of food and non-alcoholic beverages), as well as supporting beach access and
connectivity programs including, without limitation, adaptive surf and scuba, shoreline flotation
and swimming programming (together, the uses in Section 5.1(i) and 5.1(ii) shall be defined as,
and may hereinafter be referred to as, the "Approved Uses"). The Premises shall be used by
FOUNDATION solely and exclusively for the Approved Uses, or such other uses as may be
approved by the City Commission, as set forth in Section 5.2 below, and for no other purposes
or uses whatsoever.
5.2, In the event that the FOUNDATION seeks to use the Premises for any use other
than the Approved. Uses, the FOUNDATION shall notify the City Manager of the proposed new
use, in writing. If the City Manager determines that the proposed new use is not reasonably or
logically connected to the Approved Uses, then each such proposed new use shall be subject to
the prior written approval of the City Commission, which approval, if given at all, shall be at the
City Commission's sole discretion, and which shall be memorialized as an amendment to this
Agreement.
5.3. In no event shall the Center be used as a hall for hire, banquet hall, or
similar third-party venue rental, or for the sale of alcoholic beverages (provided,
however, that the FOUNDATION may serve alcoholic beverages at charitable fund-raisers
at the Premises from time to time).
8
Page 240 of 376
September 20, 2017 DRAFT
5.4. If the FOUNDATION uses the Premises or the Center for any purposes and/or
uses not expressly approved in Section 5 herein, such use shall be considered a default under
this Agreement and the City shall be entitled to all remedies, including termination of this
Agreement (upon expiration of the applicable notice and cure period), as set forth in Section 27
herein. In addition, notwithstanding any other terms of this Agreement, the City shall be entitled
to seek immediate relief, whether at law or equity, to restrain such improper use(s).
5.5. If at any time during the Term, the FOUNDATION or any successor organization
is not able to cover the operating, maintenance and programming costs for the Center, in the
manner as contemplated herein, the City shall use good faith efforts to seek another qualified
vendor to assume the maintenance and programming obligations described herein and, in the
event that the City is unable to secure an agreement with another qualified vendor, the City shall
assume control of the Center and shall use the Center for the most closely-related Parks
Department purposes, as determined by the City Commission in its reasonable discretion,
provided, however, that the Center building shall continue to serve as an accessible entry point
to the beach. In determining the most "closely related" Parks Department purposes, the Parties
agree that the City may use the Center for Parks Department programming, such as providing
general wellness or recreational programming, in combination with beach accessibility (which
may be satisfied, without limitation and by way of example only, by making available electric
beach chairs at the Premises, and providing space within the Center for persons to temporarily
store their wheelchairs while the electric beach chairs are in use).
5.6. Following the Possession Date, and for a period of forty (40) years thereafter, the
City agrees that the Center building shall be used for the benefit of the public, for the Approved
Uses and purposes as provided herein, pursuant to Sections 5.1 through 5.5 of this Agreement.
5.7. The provisions of this Section 5 shall specifically survive termination of this
Agreement.

SECTION 6. PROJECT ADMINISTRATION AND BUDGET FOR DESIGN, DEVELOPMENT
AND CONSTRUCTION OF ADAPTIVE RECREATION CENTER.
6,1. The budget of the Project Costs for the design, development, and construction of
the Center shall be subject to the mutual agreement of the City and the FOUNDATION, and
subject to final approval by the City Commission. The budget shall include a 10% contingency
for the City to cover unforeseen circumstances and Project Costs, and the Center will be
designed to this budget.
6.2. The design, development, and construction of the Center shall be administered
as a City project in accordance with all City procurement and applicable laws, including, without
limitation, LEED certification requirements, and the budget for the Center shall reflect such
requirements. The City shall be responsible for entering into the contract with the architect-
engineer, the construction contractor, and any ancillary professionals or other vendors required
to complete the Center and related improvements, and the City's Capital Improvements Office
shall serve as the contract administrator. Once the budget for the Project Costs is established,
the FOUNDATION and City shall finalize the project schedule, outlining proposed timeframes
for FOUNDATION's fund-raising efforts (based on the milestones set forth in Section 7 of this
Agreement), and timeframes for the completion of Project-related deliverables.
a. No later than six (6) months following the Effective Date, the
FOUNDATION, at its sole cost and expense, shall submit to the City Manager a preliminary
draft concept design, and a proposed operating plan, with sufficient detail to enable the City to
accurately estimate the Project Costs, including construction costs, FF&E costs, and the
operation and maintenance costs of the Center ("Draft Concept Plan"). The Draft Concept Plan
shall, at a minimum, include details with respect to the proposed design for the Center, including
layout and siting, preliminary elevations, size of building footprint, height, and other
improvements and appurtenances proposed upon the Premises. Upon the FOUNDATION's
10
Page 242 of 376
September 20, 2017 DRAFT
submission of the Draft Concept Plan to the City Manager, the City Manager shall have sixty
(60) days to review and provide the FOUNDATION with any comments thereto, including
comments with respect to a preliminary estimate of Project Costs.
b. Following the City Manager's review of the Draft Concept Plan and
development of a preliminary estimate of the Project Costs, as outlined in this Section 6, the
FOUNDATION may submit and seek City Commission approval of two (2) versions of its
concept design, including: (i) a base concept design, with a proposed design and scope
sufficient to meet the intended purposes of the Center (the "Base Concept Design"); and (ii) an
enhanced concept design, with additional design features or components that may be included
if the FOUNDATION exceeds its fund-raising goals ("Enhanced Concept Design") (collectively,
the Base Concept Design and the Enhanced Concept Design shall be referred to herein as the

AN ALYS IS
Pacific 2.1 Entertainment, a division of 20th Century Fox Studios, is currently in production on
season 2 of the Emmy-winning F X Network series “American Crime Story,” focusing this season on
the true crime story of the 1997 Gianni Versace murder on Ocean Drive in Miami Beach, by the serial
killer Andrew Cunanan, and the subsequent investigation and manhunt led by local Police. T he
production filmed several sequences on Ocean Drive in May, 2017, before moving to Los Angeles,
California, for the majority of the production work, due to available film incentives not currently offered
in the state of Florida.
T he production is returning to Miami Beach in November, to film additional scenes for the show,
including the infamous conclusion that saw Cunanan take his life aboard a houseboat docked off of
Collins Avenue and 52nd Street, in Indian Creek. T he production will recreate the houseboat on a
barge docked in the original location and is requesting closure and reroute of the filming area to
ensure period accuracy. T he specific request is to close southbound Collins Avenue from 52nd
Street to 53rd Street, rerouting southbound traffic onto the single westernmost lane of northbound
Collins Avenue, from 52nd Street to 53rd Street, per the attached Maintenance of Traffic (MOT ) plan,
as approved by the Transportation Department.
T he closure would be in effect from Wednesday, November 15, 2017 at 10:00 am until Friday,
November 17, 2017 at 7:00 am, not including restricted rush hour periods from 7:00 am to 10:00 am
and 3:30 pm to 7:00 pm, during which time the production will remove the M OT and all lanes of
Collins Avenue will flow openly. T he production has further requested a weather date if necessary, of
Friday, November 17, 2017 at 10:00 am through Saturday, November 18, 2017 at 7:00 am, also not
Page 282 of 376
including rush hour restricted periods. T he closure will be managed by Off-duty Miami Beach Police
at all times. T he production will install Variable Message Boards (VMS), alerting motorists of the
coming disruption for a week prior to this impact. T he production will notice all buildings from 41st
Street to 63rd Street, and obtain signature consent of the properties within the closure.
At the July 13, 2016 meeting of the Miami Beach Commission, Resolution 2016-29506 was adopted,
henceforth requiring any new special event applicant seeking to close a road or lane of a major
thoroughfare in the City of Miami Beach to seek approval from the Miami Beach Commission.
Although film production permitting is exempted from requiring Commission approval via the
Resolution, the Administration is seeking direction regarding this impactful production.

COMMISSION MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor Philip Levine and Members of the City Commission
FROM: Jimmy L. Morales, City Manager
DATE: October 31, 2017
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, APPROVING THE CITY’S 2018 STATE
LEGISLATIVE AGENDA
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the Resolution.
BACKGROUND
Each year, the Mayor and City Commission adopt a list of legislative priorities for the
annual session of the State Legislature. The 2018 Regular Session is scheduled to
convene on January 9, 2018. Below is the proposed 2018 State Legislative Agenda for
consideration and approval.
LEGISLATIVE PRIORITIES
1. Sea Level Rise/Coastal Flooding
The City of Miami Beach continues to face critically dangerous conditions due to
climate change and consistent coastal and rainfall flooding. It is essential that the
state recognize the urgency and severity brought on by these conditions. The
City continues to request funding for infrastructure improvements caused by
these conditions.
2. Extended Stay/Short-term Rentals - Vacation Rentals
The City supports legislation that allows local governments to regulate vacation
and extended stay/short-term rental properties. This type of legislation is meant
to prevent operators from running unlicensed “hotels”, which in most cases are in
violation of zoning laws, safety codes and other commercial requirements.
3. License Plate Readers
Allow City License Plate Readers (LPRs) on State Roads. Currently, Florida
Department of Transportation uses LPRs on some state roads.
4. Biscayne Bay Coastal Wetlands
The City urges the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the Florida Department of
Environmental Protection, and the South Florida Water Management District to
take all steps necessary to expedite and complete the construction of Phase I of
Page 286 of 376
Commission Memorandum
Page 2
the Biscayne Bay Coastal Wetlands (BBCW) project and also to expedite the
planning of Phase II for this project so that such planning occurs as soon as
possible and prior to the current scheduled start date of 2021.
The health of Biscayne Bay and the restoration of the greater Everglades'
ecosystem is of great importance to the continued clean water supply,
environmental and public health, and economic wellbeing. The purpose of the
BBCW project, as authorized by Congress in the Water Resources Development
Act of 2000, is to improve the ecological health of Biscayne Bay by adjusting the
quantity, quality, timing, and distribution of freshwater entering Biscayne Bay and
Biscayne National Park through the redistribution of freshwater flow and the
expansion and restoration of wetlands, which will help to restore or enhance
freshwater wetlands, tidal wetlands, and near-shore bay habitats.
5. Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) Program
The City urges the Florida legislature to expand the Property Assessed Clean
Energy (PACE) program to provide financing for improvements that support
resiliency in the State of Florida. In 2010, the Florida Legislature adopted
provisions in Section 163.08 of the Florida Statutes that allow local governments
to create PACE programs for residents and businesses that provide financing for
energy conservation and efficiency (e.g., energy-efficient heating, cooling, or
ventilation systems), renewable energy (e.g., solar panels), wind resistance (e.g.,
impact resistant windows), and other improvements that are not inconsistent with
State law. The State of Florida should expand the PACE program to assist
property owners with projects that raise foundation of existing historic structures
above current elevation requirements, exceed elevation requirements for new
construction, raise and reinforce seawalls and other adaptation strategies, ie
flood panels and raising infrastructure that support resiliency.
6. Local Authority and Unfunded Mandates
The City opposes legislation that would impact home rule powers of municipal
governments or in any way reduces local control and authority, as well as any
efforts to pass additional costs from the state down to the City. The City supports
all efforts made to identify and reduce the number of unfunded mandates
imposed on local government.
7. Florida’s Fire Safety Standards
The City supports legislation that amends Florida’s Fire Safety Standards to
preserve architecturally significant building features.
8. Casino Gambling
The City strongly opposes any Bills related to casino gambling, and re-affirms the
City’s long-standing policy against casino gambling.
9. Preserve Beaches/Beach Renourishment
The City supports legislation that provides additional funding to preserve and
repair the state’s beaches.
Page 287 of 376
Commission Memorandum
Page 3
10. Support Miami-Dade County Public Schools Legislative Priorities
Support the 2017 Miami-Dade County Public Schools' State Legislative Priorities
and urge Florida Governor Rick Scott and the Members of the Florida Legislature
to increase per pupil education funding in Florida public schools to equal or
exceed the national average of approximately $11,009 per pupil and to continue
to fund early childhood education programs.
11. Texting While Driving
The City urges Governor Rick Scott and the Members of the Florida Legislature
to enact legislation that would make texting while driving a primary offense.

B A C K GROUND
In March 2016, a referendum of the voters of the City of Miami Beach to approve a lease for a
Convention Center Headquarter Hotel failed to reach the 60% threshold for approval. On April 29,
2016, recognizing the potential benefit and significant economic impact to the soon-to-be renovated
Miami Beach Convention Center (M BCC) and the City as a whole, Mayor Philip Levine authorized
the creation of an Ad Hoc Blue Ribbon Steering Committee on the Convention Center Headquarter
Hotel as allowed by Section 2-23 of the City Code. T he mission of the committee was stated in the
Mayor ’s memo creating the Committee as:
T he Committee shall have the purpose of openly and fairly engaging the community in the
development of a plan to build a Convention Center Headquarter Hotel that will meet the
needs of the community and the newly expanded Convention Center
T hrough a memorandum to the City Commission, the Mayor created this seven-member committee
by appointing two Commissioners to lead the committee and granting himself and each of the
remaining City Commissioners an appointment to the committee. T he Committee ultimately was set
with the following members:
· Chair – Commissioner Ricky Arriola
· Vice Chair – Commissioner Kristen Rosen Gonzalez
· Jorge Exposito (Appointment of Mayor Levine)
· Saul Gross (Appointment of Commissioner Aleman)
· Debra Leibowitz (Appointment of Commissioner Grieco)
· Paul Freeman (Appointment of Commissioner Malakoff)
· Leslie Tobin (resigned 3/20/17) (Appointment of Commissioner Steinberg)
· Frank Kruszewski (appointed 4/4/17 to replace Leslie Tobin) (Appointment of
Commissioner Steinberg)
T he Committee was authorized through April 30, 2017, a period which was extended by Mayor
Levine to July 31, 2017 to accommodate additional fact-finding and review by the Committee. T he
Committee was charged with three primary objectives:
1 . Obtaining input and feedback from the public (residents, property owners, business
Page 296 of 376
owners, and visitors) regarding the need for a Convention Center Headquarter Hotel
2 . Disseminating information at its meetings on behalf of the City to the public (residents,
property owners, business owners, and visitors) regarding the need for a Convention Center
Headquarter Hotel
3 . Providing recommendations to the Mayor and City Commission regarding a new
Convention Center Headquarter Hotel development plan that might achieve the 60% voter
approval threshold.
T he Committee met on twelve separate occasions between May 9, 2016 and June 1, 2017 to
determine issues of importance to the public, research these issues, and formulate recommendations
to the Mayor and Commission. In addition, the Committee, through the City, commissioned a survey
of City of Miami Beach voters, conducted by the Metropolitan Center at Florida International
University, to identify the issues of concern to the public regarding a Convention Center Headquarter
Hotel.
T hrough public input and based upon the results of the voter survey, the Committee identified the
following three issues of concern to the public:
1. T he hotel’s potential impact on traffic.
2 . Design, height, compatibility with the neighborhood and location of the hotel, including
possible expansion of footprint to include the Jackie Gleason T heater site
3. An independent assessment of the need for a Convention Center Headquarter Hotel.
A N A LY SI S
As the Committee was focused on a subjective and expert opinion in regards to the need for a
headquarter hotel, the Committee requested the Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau
(GMCVB) engage an outside consultant to provide a professional and objective analysis. From
inception, the Committee’s meetings focused largely on community input and the findings of this
independent needs assessment consultant. T he public and relevant experts, outside consultants,
and persons with specific knowledge were asked to present and/or appear before the Committee to
offer their input and ideas on how to address these issues of concern to the public. T he last several
meetings were dedicated to the summary of findings from the independent consultant.
T he GMCVB engaged Convention Sports and Leisure (C SL) as the outside consultant that
conducted a study on the potential need for a headquarter hotel to support the Miami Beach
Convention Center. T he study compared the size of the convention center and overall convention
activity with comparable cities. CSL also developed the optimal size of a headquarter based a review
of what would give the Miami Beach Convention Center a competitive hotel package given the
targeted size of future conventions. Based on this, C SL completed a survey of meeting planners to
solicit feedback on the optimal and desirable size and capacity of the potential headquarter hotel.
T he conclusion of the CS L study was that an 800-1,000 room headquarter hotel is critical to position
Miami Beach as a viable destination for conventions in the future.
T he Committee’s analysis and discussion of the outside consultant’s report, coupled with the recent
work completed by the GMCVB to identify prospective conventions, validates the overall need for a
headquarter hotel. Of those prospects, 34 have already declined to consider Miami Beach because
of the lack of a headquarter hotel and the overall challenging hotel package. T his equates to more
than $128 million dollars in economic impact lost to the Miami Beach community (see appendix).
In addition, the optimal capacity of the M BCC, according to the outside consultant’s work, is 21
conventions annually. T his represents 15 more than what was secured in the 2015-2016 fiscal year.
Recently, the G MC VB has been working to identify new convention prospects and have nearly 1,000
new prospect conventions interested in coming to Miami Beach. However, the primary factor needed
to convert these new prospects into secured business at the MB CC is through a potential
Page 297 of 376
headquarter hotel.
Achieving the optimal conventions as noted above, will substantially reduce traffic around the
Convention Center. T he new booking policy at the Convention Center puts the priority on securing
high value conventions and the lowest priority on local events with minimal economic generation,
which are the high traffic events. T he Committee spent substantial time on this issue with the outside
consultant – and determined the need for a public education forum on the difference between
convention shows (high volume hotel room bookings; low to no traffic impact) and trade shows (low to
no hotel room bookings and high traffic and congestion impact).
Should the headquarter hotel come online, the consultant estimated that less than 20% of bookings
at MB C C would be utilized by trade show events compared to approximately 60% of the current
bookings. T his shift toward convention business coupled with the new booking policy will create a
tangible mitigation of traffic and will have a bottom line positive effect on overall revenues for the City
of Miami Beach.
Also of note from the consultant’s analysis is the room block agreement with the hotel developer. T his
agreement is critical and essential to ensure the success of a headquarter hotel. A room block
agreement stipulating the minimum amount of room available for convention bookings will allow
M BCC to become a competitive entity in prospecting and confirming highly sought after conventions.
As an area of concern over design, height, and compatibility with the neighborhood, the following four
potential sites for a Convention Center Headquarter Hotel were proposed:
1. T he parking lot adjacent to the Jackie Gleason T heater (site of the previous proposal)
2. T he parking lot across the street from the Convention Center
3. T he 17th Street Parking Garage
4 . T he parking lot next to the Jackie Gleason T heater and the land on which the T heater is
on
After all four sites were presented to the Committee; the members deemed that Site 4, the parking lot
next to the Jackie Gleason T heater and the land on which the theater currently sits would be the best
parcel to develop in order to meet the height restrictions and size requirements.
In order to fully assess whether or not a Convention Center Headquarter Hotel that met the height
and sizing restrictions could fit on the selected site, the Committee requested a massing study that
illustrated a hotel at the selected site given the height limitations. T his study confirmed that a hotel
could be developed with the desired number of rooms and stay well under the 185 feet height goal
that has been set and validated in community discussions.
As a staple in the community, the Committee discussed and proposed that if the selected site is to
house the Convention Center Headquarter Hotel, then there should be a replacement and rebuilding
of the Jackie Gleason T heater. Potential designs for the Convention Center Headquarter Hotel that
would accommodate a new Jackie Gleason T heater could be developed separately but in
conjunction with the hotel through an array of funding mechanisms, such as a public-private model.
It is imperative to note that through this process and the Committee’s dedication and diligence, there
is an opportunity to test a stronger, more refined message in the community. T hroughout the year, the
Committee gained much stronger insight and knowledge on the complex business balance between
convention and trade bookings; traffic and the MBCC new booking policy; and ultimately the critical
role of a Miami Beach Convention Center Hotel in the revenue stream for the Miami Beach
Convention Center, and more widely for the City and community of Miami Beach.

Based upon all of the data and feedback received, the Committee concludes and recommends the
following:
1 . It is critical to the City and the Miami Beach Convention Center that the construction of a
Convention Center Hotel be pursued. T he following are recommendations regarding the size,
footprint, community impact, and general planning:
a . T he headquarter hotel should contain between 800-1,000 rooms to maximize the
number of conventions and promote a business mix that would reduce the number of
consumer/trade shows, which cause traffic issues and increase the number of
convention shows which bring greater revenue and less traffic to the City;
b. T he hotel should be compatible with its surrounding neighborhood by measuring no
more than 185 feet in height (the height of the Clock Tower Building on Lincoln Road);
c . T he hotel should be located on land between Washington Avenue and Convention
Center Drive north of 17th Street, which is currently occupied by a parking lot, the 555
17th Street building, and the Jackie Gleason T heater. Increasing the size of the land will
support the desired height guidelines by allowing a reduction in the height and mass of
the hotel;
d . Best efforts should be made to engage a world-class architect to promote the
creation of an iconic design;
e. T he design should maximize the number of vehicular access points to the hotel and
theater campus in order to distribute vehicular traffic in the area and minimize impacts
on the nearby residential communities;
f . T he hotel should have sufficient parking for visitors and employees as required by
City Code.
2. T he Convention Center Hotel lease should specifically contain:
a . A guaranteed room block agreement allocating at least 80% of the Convention
Center Hotel’s rooms for Convention Center events and which is designed so that it
runs in perpetuity and cannot be eliminated or significantly altered by the City
Commission.
b. A provision that no gambling of any kind will be allowed at the hotel or on the site.
3. If the Jackie Gleason site is utilized, it is critical that a new state-of-the-art Jackie Gleason
T heater be constructed that is of similar size and function. T he new Gleason T heater should
be a flexible space available for use during the day by Convention Center shows.
4 . T he City should develop a detailed public information plan, to include hosting public
informational meetings and the utilization of other methods to disseminate information in order
to share with the public:
a. Current and future traffic mitigation strategies
b. Design aspects of the hotel
c . An explanation and commitment to the convention center ’s new booking policy that
prioritizes conventions over consumer/trade shows and the positive impact on traffic and
City revenue which will result from this new policy
d . T he independent consultant’s rationale, research, and exhaustive comparison
reports substantiating the need for a Convention Center Hotel
5 . In order to determine if the project is on the right path, the Committee recommends the
City Commission may consider a straw ballot to gauge public sentiment before seeking a hotel
developer. T he straw ballot should be held following the creation of the alternative site plan
and following the public information campaign.
Page 299 of 376
6 . T he Committee recommends that the hotel be placed on the ballot for the August 2018
Primary Elections.
7 . Upon acceptance of the recommendations above, it is further suggested that the Ad Hoc
Blue Ribbon Steering Committee on the Convention Center Headquarter Hotel be extended
for a six month period to conduct community outreach and education sessions. Understanding
that a new headquarter hotel plan would need the support of more than 60% of voters, the
Committee believes it is critical to reach out to the public to engage in a thoughtful education
process on the many issues discussed above. T his effort may be supplemented by assistance
from City staff or a consultant to ensure all relevant information is presented to the public in a
clear, concise, and easy to understand manner.

Executive Summary and Recommendations
This report and summary of recommendations is the result of an in-depth and inclusive process on
behalf of the City of Miami Beach to determine the appropriate next steps for the potential
development of a Convention Center Headquarter Hotel to service the Miami Beach Convention Center
(Center). The recommendations contained within are based on feedback from residents, third-party
consultant data and detailed competitive research used to inform the decision-making process of the
City.
Committee Formation and Background
In March 2016, a referendum of the voters of the City of Miami Beach to approve a lease for a
Convention Center Headquarter Hotel failed to reach the 60% threshold for approval. On April 29,
2016, recognizing the potential benefit and significant economic impact to the soon-to-be renovated
Miami Beach Convention Center (MBCC) and the City as a whole, Mayor Philip Levine authorized the
creation of an Ad Hoc Blue Ribbon Steering Committee on the Convention Center Headquarter Hotel as
allowed by Section 2-23 of the City Code. The mission of the committee was stated in the Mayor’s
memo creating the Committee as:
The Committee shall have the purpose of openly and fairly engaging the community in the
development of a plan to build a Convention Center Headquarter Hotel that will meet the needs
of the community and the newly expanded Convention Center
Through a memorandum to the City Commission, the Mayor created this seven-member committee by
appointing two Commissioners to lead the committee and granting himself and each of the remaining
City Commissioners an appointment to the committee. The Committee ultimately was set with the
following members:
Chair – Commissioner Ricky Arriola
Vice Chair – Commissioner Kristen Rosen Gonzalez
Jorge Exposito (Appointment of Mayor Levine)
Saul Gross (Appointment of Commissioner Aleman)
Debra Leibowitz (Appointment of Commissioner Grieco)
Paul Freeman (Appointment of Commissioner Malakoff)
Leslie Tobin (resigned 3/20/17) (Appointment of Commissioner Steinberg)
Frank Kruszewski (appointed 4/4/17 to replace Leslie Tobin) (Appointment of Commissioner
Steinberg)
Page 302 of 376

The Committee was authorized through April 30, 2017, a period which was extended by Mayor Levine to
July 31, 2017 to accommodate additional fact-finding and review by the Committee. The Committee
was charged with three primary objectives:
1. Obtaining input and feedback from the public (residents, property owners, business owners, and
visitors) regarding the need for a Convention Center Headquarter Hotel
2. Disseminating information at its meetings on behalf of the City to the public (residents, property
owners, business owners, and visitors) regarding the need for a Convention Center Headquarter
Hotel
3. Providing recommendations to the Mayor and City Commission regarding a new Convention
Center Headquarter Hotel development plan that might achieve the 60% voter approval
threshold.
The Committee met on twelve separate occasions between May 9, 2016 and June 1, 2017 to determine
issues of importance to the public, research these issues, and formulate recommendations to the Mayor
and Commission. In addition, the Committee, through the City, commissioned a survey of City of Miami
Beach voters, conducted by the Metropolitan Center at Florida International University, to identify the
issues of concern to the public regarding a Convention Center Headquarter Hotel.
Through public input and based upon the results of the voter survey, the Committee identified the
following three issues of concern to the public:
1. The hotel’s potential impact on traffic.
2. Design, height, compatibility with the neighborhood and location of the hotel, including possible
expansion of footprint to include the Jackie Gleason Theater site
3. An independent assessment of the need for a Convention Center Headquarter Hotel.
Committee Recommendations
The Committee’s meetings focused on fashioning a plan that would receive the support of more than
60% of voters. The public and relevant experts, outside consultants and persons with specific
knowledge were asked to present and/or appear before the Committee to offer their input and ideas on
how to address these issues of concern to the public.
Based upon all of the data and feedback received, the Committee concludes and recommends the

Traffic Mitigation
Voters cited traffic as their top concern in the survey. Therefore, traffic mitigation related to the
potential hotel was discussed at length.
The City’s Transportation Department presented at several meetings and discussed the following issues
related to traffic:
1. The difference in traffic impacts between booking conventions as compared to local shows.
2. Modeling showing the relatively small impact of additional visitors on the roadway network and
on traffic.
3. A comprehensive plan for traffic mitigation including strategies currently being implemented
and those specifically related to a new Convention Center Headquarter Hotel.
1. Positive Impact of Conventions
One of the main reasons to pursue building a Convention Center Headquarter Hotel is to give the
Greater Miami Convention and Visitor’s Bureau (GMCVB) greater ability to book conventions (high
volume hotel room bookings; low to no traffic impact) rather than consumer shows (low to no hotel
room bookings and high traffic and congestion impact). This change in the type of shows booked would
have a positive impact on traffic in and around the Convention Center Headquarter Hotel for the
following reasons: attendees at a convention primarily fly in from out of town; they arrive within 24
hours of the start of the convention by public conveyance; they stay for several days in a Miami Beach
hotel; and they walk or use other modes of transportation to most of the area amenities. If a Convention
Center Headquarter Hotel is built adjacent to the convention center, then by definition, all of the
attendees staying at the new hotel will not need to drive to the convention center, thereby reducing
traffic on the roadways. Overall, the convention event attendee puts a lesser strain on traffic and also
spends a significant amount of money in local hotels, restaurants and shops which is a boon to Miami
Beach businesses. By comparison, attendees at local shows are more likely to live within the South
Florida area; they drive to the show in their personal vehicles and drive home; they generate a
significant amount of traffic and they add little economic benefit to local Miami Beach businesses. The
Committee felt it was of the utmost importance to educate the public on the differences in traffic
impacts between a convention and a consumer show. The commitment to this is demonstrated in the
new booking policy of the Convention Center.
2. Modeling showing the impact of additional visitors on traffic
The Transportation Department presented their new modeling to the Committee (see Attachment)
which shows the potential traffic impacts of both a 1,000 and an 800-room hotel at the PM peak hour
and assumed 75% occupancy of the hotel. The key finding for the Alternative Site Plan was that new
vehicular trips generated would only increase by approximately 3%.
Page 306 of 376
7
The intersection at Alton Road and 17th Street was modeled to show typical impacts of the additional
vehicles and traffic delays traveling through that intersection. The models showed minimal increased
delays of 1.4 seconds with an 800 room hotel and 2.0 seconds for a hotel of 1,000 rooms.
3. Traffic Mitigation Plans
The Transportation Department discussed implementing a comprehensive traffic mitigation plan
including the following:
a) Capacity improvements at Alton Road and 17th Street-
1. Convert northbound shared through/right to exclusive right turn lane
2. Add exclusive southbound right turn lane
3. Add an additional left turn lane to provide south bound dual left turn lanes
b) Capacity improvements at Alton Road and N. Michigan Avenue
1. Improve westbound right turn radius (free flow lane)
2. Implement dual southbound left turn at Michigan Avenue and Alton Road
c) Dedicated loading space for ride sharing vehicles.
d) Shuttle service to and from the Airport.
e) Intelligent Transportation System and Smart Parking System Project Implementation, including a
Traffic Management Center to monitor and modify network conditions and messaging to
motorists.
f) A connected trolley system linking key hotels to the Convention Center to reduce required
internal vehicular trips.
g) A robust pedestrian wayfinding system from the proposed hotel to principal attractions.
h) Increasing protected/connected bicycle facilities throughout the City as part of existing and
future CIP and Public Works Projects.
i) FDOT/City of Miami Beach Signal Retiming Project.
Traffic Mitigation Conclusion
The Committee concluded that the City must implement a comprehensive traffic mitigation plan that
includes all of the strategies presented above. The City should also publicize the traffic mitigation
measures it is already undertaking. The Committee further concluded that this mitigation strategy along
with educating the public regarding the differences in traffic impacts between a convention and a
consumer show would help reduce the public opposition to a new hotel. This will also be further
enhanced with the public’s understanding of the new booking policy.

Design, Height, Compatibility with the Neighborhood and Location
The results from the survey of voters indicated that design factors related to a hotel were of great
concern including design, height compatibility with the neighborhood and location.
Discussion focused on the questions of a hotel no taller than the existing Clock Tower Building on Lincoln
Road. The Committee submitted this question for the survey specifically so that the respondents would
have a comparison landmark. The Committee wanted to ensure this height, 185 feet, was not
exceeded.
As the City of Miami Beach is known for design and aesthetic, the design of a potential hotel is
important to the community. The voter survey showed positive results when strong emphasis on design
was considered. The Committee recommends that an iconic design be required in any proposer’s
approach.
Maria Hernandez, the City’s Capital Projects Director for the Convention Center renovation, appeared
before the Committee to discuss the following four potential sites for a Convention Center Headquarter
Hotel:
1. The Parking Lot Adjacent to the Jackie Gleason Theater (site of previous proposal)
2. The Parking Lot Across the Street from the Convention Center
3. The 17th Street Parking Garage
4. The Parking Lot Next to the Jackie Gleason Theater and the Land on which the Theater is on
The determination was made that Site 4, the parking lot next to the Jackie Gleason Theater and the land
on which the Jackie Gleason Theater sits, was the best parcel to meet the height restrictions and size
requirements needed.
The Jackie Gleason Theater Site
The Committee therefore explored the feasibility of developing a potential hotel on Site 4.
The Committee heard from Niesen Kasdin representing Live Nation. Mr. Kasdin indicated that Live
Nation was open to discussing the option to rebuild the theater and renegotiate the terms of the
current agreement. With this information, the Committee continued its discussion regarding the
rebuilding concept.
A previous proposal from several years ago to utilize the Jackie Gleason site and incorporate it into a
hotel was met with resistance by the public. Issues were raised about removing the historic nature of
the building and fear of losing the venue. The Committee had significant discussion regarding these
matters and reached out to several key individuals who were part of previous community debates. The
Committee heard from three key community leaders including:
1. Nancy Liebman
Page 308 of 376
9
2. Dirk DeSousa
3. Daniel Ciraldo
Discussion with these individuals surfaced key elements functionality and efficient and effective use of
space. All three of these individuals agreed that rebuilding the Theater should be considered as the
Theater is not eligible to be designated as an historic structure, but is an invaluable venue with popular
programming and an asset to the community.
The Committee discussed the issues surrounding the rebuilding concept including resident skepticism
that the venue would actually be rebuilt if the existing facility were removed. To this end, the
Committee discussed phasing of the construction to be amenable to rebuilding the Theater in a way that
would mitigate the venue’s offline time as best as possible. The Committee has committed to keep this a
priority through the process. In order to address past objections to the incorporation of the land
currently occupied by the Jackie Gleason Theater into the Convention Center Headquarter Hotel site,
the Committee had multiple meetings at which the Jackie Gleason stakeholders and the Preservation
community were invited to comment on the plan. It became clear that for this option to be feasible, a
new Jackie Gleason theater should be constructed of similar size to the current Theater.
An Alternative Site Plan
The Planning Department was asked to prepare a massing model and site plan showing what could
occur at the selected site given the height limitation, the need to rebuild the Theater and traffic
concerns. Rogelio Madan, Chief of Comprehensive Planning, presented to the Committee for discussion
the results of the Planning Department’s Alternative Site Plan Study (See Attachment).
The study concluded that a design could be created which met all of the requirements needed on the
site. The study showed a complex with:
An 800-room hotel limited to 145 feet in height (12 stories)
91,000 sq. ft. of ballroom area
284 parking spaces
A theater building large enough to accommodate 2,600 seats
The study also indicated that the building could be designed to have increasing setbacks from 17th street
at various floors to reduce the mass of the building to pedestrians and vehicles. The campus could also
have direct connection to the Convention Center building and could have an internal connection
between the hotel, theater, ballrooms and the parking levels of the hotel.
The Planning Department also worked with Transportation on the design presented, thus the Study also
included:
A Regular vehicular drop-off location at the hotel front door on Convention Center Drive;
A Regular vehicular drop-off location at the parking entrance to the hotel on Convention Center
Drive;
Page 309 of 376
10
A vehicular drop-off site on 17th Street designed for taxis, buses, and Uber-style transportation
systems. This would insure public conveyance of these types would have a dedicated, off-street
location for drop-off and pick-up so as to not interfere with traffic circulation in the area.
A vehicular drop off and access driveway that went under the Theater to ensure that high-traffic
period before and after shows could be accommodated and would help improve traffic
circulation in the area.
The Committee received and endorsed this study as it significantly met the limitations placed on the site
and further reduced the impact of vehicles on area traffic congestion.
Design, Height, Compatibility with the Neighborhood and Location
Conclusion
The Committee concluded the height of a new hotel should not exceed 185 feet. Additionally, the City
should consider world-class design and aesthetics for the hotel. Lastly, the location of the new hotel
should be on the land currently occupied by the Jackie Gleason Theater and the adjacent parking lot. It
was specifically noted that if the Jackie Gleason site were to be used, a new Gleason Theater should be
considered.
The Committee further concluded that a combined Theater and parking lot site could be designed to
meet all of the criteria they believe will encourage greater support for a Convention Center Headquarter
Hotel. The Alternative Site Plan presented to the Committee by the Planning Department showed
reduced massing on 17th Street, a hotel with a maximum height of 145 feet, significant parking, and
potential for several access points to the hotel campus that would distribute traffic and allow for
vehicles to divert from lanes of travel thus reducing impact on traffic flow in the area.
The Committee also supports a commitment to build a new state-of-the-art Jackie Gleason theater with
the same seating capacity as the existing facility and to minimize the Theater’s down time. The
Committee agreed with the suggestion that the new theater be designed to be a landmark.

Hotel Needs Assessment
The Committee recognized that one of the issues often brought up by the public was whether there is a
need for a Convention Center Headquarter Hotel. The Committee wished to better understand the need
for a Convention Center Headquarter Hotel and if there was a need, how many rooms would be ideal
given the size and positioning of the Convention Center in the marketplace.
The Committee engaged in discussions with representatives of the Greater Miami Convention and
Visitors Bureau (GMCVB) and it was explained to the Committee that the need for a Convention Center
Headquarter Hotel stems from the current challenges that the sales team faces when attempting to
book a convention event in Miami Beach. The typical hotel package offering often require 10 or more
hotels to satisfy one citywide group. This is an issue for national meeting and convention planners as the
ease of doing business in Miami Beach becomes less desirable when compared to other convention
destinations. If the room blocks each hotel is able to allocate are too small, then hotel room blocks at
too many hotels are required, which makes planning the convention too difficult and as a result, the
organizations will look elsewhere to host their event. Additionally, if the hotels are too far away from
the meeting venue, this might also cause an organization to look elsewhere.
In order to determine whether a Convention Center Headquarter Hotel is needed and if it is needed,
how many rooms the hotel in Miami Beach would need, the GMCVB engaged Conventions, Sports and
Leisure, International (CSL), a national consulting firm, to prepare a Hotel Needs Assessment Study on
behalf of the Committee. To further ensure an independent study, the GMCVB turned oversight of the
study to the Committee and allowed the Committee to directly manage CSL’s work.
CSL met with the Committee three times over the course of the engagement and presented their
findings at the April 24, 2017 Committee meeting. CSL researched and provided information related to:
• How Miami Beach compares to competitive facilities
• What Event Planners have to say about need for a Convention Center Hotel
• Room Night Generation Potential for a Convention Center Headquarter Hotel
• Hotel Financing
• Room Block Agreement
John Kaatz, Principal at CSL presented to the Committee findings related to these topics. He also
presented the results of a survey of organizations that potentially would utilize the Miami Beach
Convention Center for their event. A summary of the findings discussed include the following results:
Between 65% and 80% of planners surveyed responded that an 800 to 1,000 -room Convention Center
Headquarter Hotel would be ideal in Miami Beach.
Nearly 75% of planners surveyed said they are less likely or would definitely not book Miami Beach if a
Convention Center Headquarter Hotel was not developed.
Page 311 of 376
12
This shows that the convention center would lose a significant amount of potential bookings without a
hotel. Even more compelling is the current market activity; it was presented that in the last two years,
the GMCVB has actively solicited, and track and prospective Conventions for the MBCC as well as the
high percentage that will not come to Miami Beach without headquarter .This process has further
highlighted the challenges faced in booking high impact conventions.
As of March 2017, the GMCVB has added 955 prospects (conventions that have shown interest in Miami
Beach) to the system and has 152 additional tentative events (conventions where MBCC space is being
held) interested in booking the MBCC. The biggest issue the GMCVB has when it comes to converting
these groups is the lack of a Convention Center Headquarter Hotel as it can take over 10 hotels to
accommodate a convention group of 1,500 peak rooms or greater. This challenge is unique to Miami
Beach, as most comparable destinations can achieve a 1,500-peak room block between one or two
hotels. This affects the destination’s attractiveness and ultimately results in a current actual low
conversion rate of around 4% overall. Of the 955 prospects in the GMCVB system, 716 are at risk to be
lost due to not having a competitive hotel package. This has already proven to be detrimental to the City
and the new Convention Center.
To be more specific, the Committee heard that at the conclusion of the first year of the GMCVB’s new
prospecting initiative, Fiscal Year ending October 2016, the sales team had lost 11 major convention
bookings due directly to the lack of a Convention Center Headquarter Hotel and the challenging hotel
package. These 11 lost convention events represented approximately 200,000 room nights and $61.5
million in economic impact to the City. As of March 2017, the GMCVB has lost 16 convention events,
50% of which were lost at least in part because of the hotel package and lack of a Convention Center
Headquarter Hotel. The events lost already in this year represent 144,000 room nights on average and
$44.7 million in economic impact (based on the $311 average spend).
Another analysis discussed was room night generation citywide and average room rates that would be
added to the market. At the recommended level of rooms (800-1,000) an estimated 203,000 new
incremental room nights would be generated into the Miami Beach hotel market thus increasing direct
spending and tax revenue collection.
The study also analyzed room block agreements and found that it is critical to negotiate an appropriate
room block agreement with any Convention Center Headquarter Hotel that continues in perpetuity.
CSL indicated the key findings from their work on the Hotel Needs Assessment include:
• An on-site hotel will be significantly and positively beneficial
• Typical issues a city will have to address include public financial support and site challenges
• Hotel pricing should not significantly impact demand, as long as the MBCC/Hotel package is
competitive
• Guaranteeing a room block agreement is critical to leveraging a new hotel
• Continued on-going efforts toward “destination” enhancement for residents and visitors is
important

Hotel Needs Assessment Conclusion
After a full discussion and review of findings from the CSL study, and gaining an understanding of the
current business that is interested in Miami Beach, but will not come without a Convention Center
Headquarter Hotel, the Committee concluded that a Convention Center Headquarter Hotel is needed to
effectively maximize the convention center and deliver wide ranging economic impacts to Miami Beach.
It was further concluded that the ideal hotel size would be between 800 and 1,000 rooms. In this room
range, convention center bookings would be maximized and other local hotels would benefit from
overflow room bookings and increased room rates. Lastly, the additional visitors will contribute
significant new expenditures at area restaurants and retail establishments.
New or Enhanced Messaging
The process that has been undertaken has enhanced the overall approach to the key issues raised by our
community. This Committee’s scope has provided insight and deeper foundation of these issues and
arms the City with more information to position a Convention Center Headquarter Hotel project to the
public. Throughout the year, the Committee gained much stronger insight and knowledge on the
complex business balance between convention and trade show bookings; traffic and the MBCC new
booking policy; and ultimately the critical role of a Miami Beach Convention Center Hotel in enhancing
the revenue stream for the Miami Beach Convention Center, and more widely for the City and
community of Miami Beach.
The data this Committee reviewed that will support the City’s efforts in a second attempt include:
1. Increased data on traffic mitigation with an opportunity to make a commitment to a booking policy,
which will reduce unfavorable events from a traffic standpoint.
2. A reinforced argument with national trend data and real market intelligence from current and
prospective customers, who have expressed interest in Miami Beach and will not come without a
Convention Center Headquarter Hotel.
3. A validated site plan that responds to the concerns around height.
4. A commitment to a plan that will ultimately enhance the Jackie Gleason Theater for our community.
This provides a strong foundation to go to the citizens and gain their support.
Committee Conclusion and Summary
The Committee is confident in the recommendations to continue to move this process forward. Based
on all of the research and data provided, feedback from residents and recommendations from third-
party consultants, the City of Miami Beach is uniquely positioned for success with the development of a
Convention Center Headquarter Hotel. The addition of such an amenity would make the destination
more desirable to national planners and bring significant incremental new room nights and tax revenue
associated with them to the City of Miami Beach. A shift in the business mix to limit consumer shows
Page 313 of 376
14
and encourage more conventions will help reduce traffic associated with the more local, day trips
associated with consumer shows and increase spending by the multi-day convention attendees. In
addition, those visitors would patronize local Miami Beach business and deliver significant economic
impact into our community.

High Profile Clients Weigh In
A HQ hotel is what has been needed
for some time in such a great city as
Miami Beach…. It will definitely
make you more competitive.
Miami is a destination that comes up often as a
potential location for meetings and events…. Having
a large hotel connected to the convention center
would put it in the running with other large
convention-type cities.

FROM: Jimmy L. Morales, City Manager
DATE: July 26, 2017
SUBJECT: ADDENDUM TO MAYOR'S AD HOC BLUE RIBBON STEERING
COMMITTEE ON THE CONVENTION CENTER HOTEL FINAL REPORT
BACKGROUND
The following recommendations were made by the Mayor's Ad Hoc Blue Ribbon
Steering Committee on the Convention Center Hotel and should be noted as
additions to the Final Report, submitted with the discussion item at the July 26,
2017 Commission meeting.
1. The City should hire a professional planner to confirm that the alternative
site plan developed by the City of Miami Beach Planning Department (and
as proposed in the Final Report and Commission memo) is feasible. The
planner should create a rendering of the alternative site plan as
envisioned on the proposed site.
2. The City should investigate the reconstruction of the Jackie Gleason
Theater as to cost, configuration, Live Nation lease, etc. A plan would then
be developed to finance the reconstruction of the Gleason Theater.
CONCLUSION:
Administration wishes to put forward these additional recommendations for
inclusion as part of the final report by the Mayor's Ad Hoc Blue Ribbon Steering
Committee on the Convention Center Hotel.

T he Administration recommends that the City Commission discuss the matter and provide
appropriate policy direction.

H I STORY
On July 13, 2016, the City Commission discussed the creation of local historic districts within the
boundaries of the North Shore and Normandy Isles National Register Districts. T he Administration
was directed to begin the local designation process for the boundaries recommended in the draft
North Beach Master Plan (MAP 1 & MAP 2 attached).
Pursuant to the direction of the City Commission on July 13, 2016, the Planning Department
submitted two applications to the Historic Preservation Board for the possible local historic
designation of the North Shore Local Historic District and the Normandy Isles Local Historic District.
T hese applications were consistent with the boundaries recommended in the draft North Beach
Master Plan.
On October 11, 2016, the Historic Preservation Board reviewed the preliminary evaluation report
prepared by Planning staff and recommended that Historic Designation Reports be prepared in
accordance with the following:
North Shore Local Historic District:
T he boundaries for designation shall be consistent with the area identified in the draft North Beach
Master Plan (M AP 1) and design guidelines specific to the Local Historic District shall be developed
as part of the future historic designation report, to allow for more flexibility and encourage sustainable
and resilient development.
Normandy Isles Local Historic District:
T he boundaries for designation shall be consistent with the area identified in the draft North Beach
Master Plan (M AP 2) and design guidelines specific to the Local Historic District shall be developed
as part of the future historic designation report, to allow for more flexibility and encourage sustainable
and resilient development.
Pursuant to Section 118-591 of the City Code, when the Historic Preservation Board directs staff to
Page 320 of 376
prepare a designation report for a proposed new historic district or site, the Mayor and City
Commission are required to be notified of the board's decision and the initial boundaries proposed for
designation. Within 60 days of the vote of the Historic Preservation Board to direct the Planning
Department to prepare a designation report, the City Commission may, by a five-sevenths vote, deny
or modify the proposed request for designation, as well as establish specific timeframes for the
completion of the evaluation and recommendation and/or designation report. Within this 60 day
period the City Commission may also, by a five-sevenths vote, deny or modify the proposed
designation boundaries.
T he City Commission was advised of the action of the Historic Preservation Board via LT C, and as
part of a progress report on the demolition moratorium, presented at the October 19, 2016 City
Commission meeting. On December 5, 2016, the Mayor and City Commission modified the
boundaries for the proposed North Shore Local Historic District by removing the portion of the district
along Tatum Waterway Drive and Crespi Boulevard (MAP 3). No action was taken with regard to
modifying the boundaries for the proposed Normandy Isles Local Historic District.
On September 25, 2017, the Mayor and City Commission adopted Resolution 2017-30013,
reaffirming Resolution No. 2016-29608, which adopted the North Beach Master Plan as drafted by
Dover, Kohl & Partners and commits to the implementation of the entirety of the Plan. T he
Resolution adopted on September 25, 2017 contains the following ‘Whereas’ clause:
W H E R E A S , consi stent wi th the Plan, the Mayor and Ci ty Commissi on now feel s that i t
woul d be i n the City's best interest and desires to include the Tatum Waterway area i nto the
North Shore Local Hi storic Di strict, and conti nue to create devel opment regulations for the
distri cts that refl ect the character of these neighborhoods, whil e taki ng i nto consi derati on
resi li ency and sea l evel ri se.
On October 10, 2017, the Historic Preservation Board reviewed historic designation reports for the
proposed North Shore and Normandy Isles local historic districts, as previously modified by the City
Commission on December 5, 2016. At this meeting, the Board transmitted a favorable
recommendation for both proposed historic districts, and directed staff to begin the process to include
Tatum Waterway/Crespi Boulevard within an expansion of the North Shore Local Historic District.
D ES I GNATI ON P ROCES S
T he process of historic designation is delineated in Sections 118-591 through 118-593 in Subpart B
of the Land Development Regulations of the City Code (Chapter 118, Article X, Division 4). T he
following is an outline of this process:
Step One: A request for designation is made either by the City Commission, the
Historic Preservation Board, other agencies and organizations as listed in the Land
Development Regulations of the City Code, or the property owners involved. Proposals
for designation shall include a completed application form available from the Planning
Department.
Step Two: T he Planning Department prepares a preliminary evaluation report with
recommendations for consideration by the Board.
Step T hree: T he Historic Preservation Board considers the preliminary evaluation to
determine if proceeding with a designation report is warranted. T he designation report
is an historical and architectural analysis of the proposed district or site and addresses
the following:
Page 321 of 376
1) Describes the historic, architectural and/or archeological significance of
the property or subject area proposed for Historical Site or District designation;
2) Recommends Evaluation Guidelines to be used by the Board to evaluate
the appropriateness and compatibility of proposed Developments affecting the
designated Site or District; and
3) Will serve as an attachment to the Land Development Regulations of the
City Code.
Step Four: T he City Commission is notified of the Board’s decision and the initial
boundaries proposed for designation. Within 60 days of the vote of the Historic
Preservation Board to direct the Planning Department to prepare a designation report,
the City Commission may, by a five-sevenths vote, deny or modify the proposed request
for designation.
Step Five: T he designation report is presented to the Historic Preservation Board
at a public hearing. If the Board determines that the proposed site or district satisfies
the requirements for designation as set forth in the Land Development Regulations of
the City Code, the Board transmits a recommendation in favor of designation to the
Planning Board and City Commission.
Step Six: T he Planning Board will hold a public hearing on the proposed
designation, and shall consider the proposed historic designation as an amendment to
the Land Development Regulations of the City Code and, subsequently, transmit its
recommendation to the City Commission.
Step Seven: T he City Commission may adopt an amendment to the Land
Development Regulations of the City Code by a five-sevenths majority vote, which
thereby designates the Historic Preservation Site or Historic District after one (1) public
hearing for a parcel of land less than ten (10) contiguous acres or after two (2) public
hearings for a parcel of land that is more than ten (10) contiguous acres.
PLANNI NG A NALY SI S
On October 10, 2017, the Historic Preservation Board was presented with a Resolution adopted by
the City Commission on September 25, 2017 reaffirming the City’s commitment to implement the
North Beach Master Plan in its entirely, including the local historic district designation of the area
along the Tatum Waterway. T his area, which includes properties located on the west side of Tatum
Waterway Drive and Byron Avenue from 77th Street to Crespi Boulevard and properties located on
the north side of 85th Street between Crespi Boulevard and Byron Avenue, was removed from the
boundaries of the proposed North Shore Local Historic District by the City Commission on
December 5, 2016.
Pursuant to Sec. 118-165 of the City Code, when a proposed change in district boundaries has been
acted upon by the City Commission and disapproved or failed of passage, such proposed change, in
the same or substantially similar form shall not be reconsidered by the City Commission for a period
of at least one year following the date of such action. T herefore, in order to include the Tatum
Waterway area within the North Shore Local Historic District, a new, separate application to expand
the district will be required. Alternatively, the currently proposed historic designation could be
withdrawn and a new application that includes the currently proposed boundaries, as well as the area
along the Tatum Waterway, could be submitted. Any new application for historic district designation
would be required to begin at step one, outlined above within the ‘Designation Process’ section of
this memo, which consists of a preliminary evaluation of proposed district boundaries by the Historic
Preservation Board.
Page 322 of 376
On October 10, 2017, after reviewing the currently proposed historic designation reports, the Historic
Preservation Board transmitted a favorable recommendation for both the proposed North Shore and
Normandy Isles local historic districts. T he Board also directed staff to begin the process to include
Tatum Waterway/Crespi Boulevard within an expansion of the North Shore Local Historic District.
T he action of the Historic Preservation Board requires staff to present a preliminary evaluation
regarding the expanded boundaries of the North Shore Local Historic District. Staff anticipates
bringing this preliminary evaluation to the Historic Preservation Board in December. All of the normal,
remaining steps for designation would then be followed. Since all of the research work for the Tatum
Waterway has been completed as part of the previous processes, the designation of the expanded
area is expected to move quickly.
C O N C L U S IO N
T he Administration recommends that the City Commission discuss the matter and provide
appropriate policy direction.

T he Parks and Recreation Department has a need for additional recreational field space. Given the
City’s interest in revitalizing North Beach and North Beach Resident’s participation in soccer
programs, recreational improvements would best service this area.
T he City of Miami Beach and the School Board of Miami-Dade County jointly own a parcel of real
property located adjacent to Biscayne Elementary School, for use of park and playground
recreational purposes. Pursuant to the Joint Use Agreement between the City and the Board as

Biscayne Elementary School’s playfield area, recreational facilities, and parking lot during after-
school hours, when available.
Administration is recommending the City look into the viability of building a soccer field within the

Dear Mr. William Garviso and Members of the Selection Committee:
On behalf of Velosolutions, I am pleased to submit this letter of interest for the creation of a
temporary skate park in Miami Beach, FL. We are excited that your city has made this
proactive decision to provide such a valuable facility. Our team is focused on creating high-
quality riding environments and is passionate about the aesthetic value of our designs. We will
design a park that has broad-based appeal to users of all ages, abilities, and interests.
Skateparks are currently experiencing a rapid design evolution and we are pleased to be at
the forefront of this movement. Our team is a leader in innovative paved park design –
specializing in detailed, ready-for-bid construction drawings with us attached as on site
managers.
Velosolutions has designed and built over 100 paved parks throughout North America, Europe,

industry’s top skateboarders, mountain bikers, BMXers, longboarders, and inline skaters.
We carefully calculate park aesthetics with detailed grading, irrigation, and drainage
solutions.
WE ARE SUBMITTING 3 OPTIONS FOR YOU TO CHOOSE FROM.
I will oversee all aspects of the project as Principal-in-Charge.
Sincerely yours,

Product Information
Velosolutions is the world leader in paved pumptrack construction. Our company also
built the first ever Pumptrack/Skatepark hybrid in Kanab, UT. We are proposing two
options:
1.Traditional Velosolutions Pumptrack which only requires the use of asphalt,
dirt, crushed rock, soil, and sod.
2.Omni Park and Lot 11 inspired Urban Skate Plaza featuring Quarterpipes, Rails,
Ledges, Boxes, Jersey Barriers and stares as shown in rendering and photos.
Materials to be used will be Black Steel Coping, #3 Rebar, 6” Chicken Wire for
flat areas, 4” thick shotcrete 4000 PSI, 4” thick Grey Concrete 4000 PSI. The
park will be a custom pour in place standard skatepark.
3.Lumberjack Series Modular Pumptrack from BikeParkitect (Used: 2 years old)
The Lumberjack series has a substructure that is made from a marine grade
lumber and is topped with our ultra grip composite surface. This surface has a
texture to it that means that you can ride no matter what Mother Nature
throws at you. Because of the modular design it can easily be rearranged or
added to at anytime. It is easily stored, setup, and transported.
Additional Materials for the first 2 options:
-The entry way to the park will be a 6 foot ADA accessible crushed Limestone
pathway to a viewing area.
-A Pressure Treated Split Rail Fence to allow for residents to appreciate the
beauty of the park.
