December 7, 1994
TO: Chairman and Members of the Board
of the Miami Beach Redevelopment Agency
FROM: Roger M. Carlton j'A~ ~
Executive Direct~~~
SUBJECT: STREETSCAPE PROGRAM RECOMMENDED IMPLEMENTATION PROCESS
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION:
The Administration recommends entering into a professional services
contract with Andres Duany & Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk, Architects,
Inc. (DPZ) to assist the City of Miami Beach with the following
services: 1) incorporate the South pointe Design Guidelines
prepared by the aforementioned firm into an amendment to the zoning
code; 2) provide technical assistance to the City of Miami Beach
in reviewing proposals that are on properties in South pointe
currently controlled by development agreements and/or requiring new
development agreements; and 3) develop a comprehensive
streetscape plan that incorporates the urban design concepts
contained in the South pointe Design Guidelines, including, but not
limited to, landscaping, lighting, sidewalks, signage, and
pedestrian and vehicular traffic.
BACKGROUND:
In September, 1993, the Redevelopment Agency Board approved a
professional services contract with DPZ in the amount of $25,000.
DPZ was deemed to be uniquely qualified to undertake this
assignment because of their role in earlier studies of the South
Pointe Area. The South pointe Design Guidelines presented by
Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk to the Redevelopment Agency Board on
October 19, 1994 were the result of this contract.
ANALYSIS:
When the South pointe Redevelopment Agency budget was prepared for
Fiscal Year 94-95, we envisioned a second phase to the professional
services contract would be needed. As we entered into discussions
with DPZ regarding the scope of services for the Phase II
agreement, it became apparent that the comprehensive streetscape

plan was integrally related to the design criteria established in
the South Pointe Guidelines. Therefore, the Administration
believes that incorporating the streetscape plan into the scope of
services for the Phase II agreement will result in the
comprehensive, high quality design that is desired.
The detailed

design phases for construction will be awarded based
for Proposal process which will begin immediately. A
for Proposal is necessary because the anticipated
exceeds $500,000.
CONCLUSION:
The Administration recommends that the Phase II professional
services agreement with DPZ encompass three maj or tasks: 1)
incorporate the South Pointe Design Guidelines prepared by the
aforementioned firm into an amendment to the zoning code; 2)
provide technical assistance to the City of Miami Beach in
reviewing proposals that are on properties in South pointe
currently controlled by development agreements and/or requiring new
development agreements; and 3) develop a comprehensive
streetscape plan that incorporates the urban design concepts
contained in the South pointe Design Guidelines, including, but not
limited to, landscaping, lighting, sidewalks, signage, and
pedestrian and vehicular traffic. Compensation for these services
will not exceed $75,000.

REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY MEMORANDUM NO. 94-55
December 7, 1994
TO: Chairman and Members of the Board
of the Miami Beach Redevelopment Agency
FROM: Roger M. Carlton J'A.~ ~
Executive Direct~~~
SUBJECT: STREETS CAPE PROGRAM RECOMMENDED IMPLEMENTATION PROCESS
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION:
The Administration recommends entering into a professional services
contract with Andres Duany & Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk, Architects,
Inc. (DPZ) to assist the City of Miami Beach with the following
services: 1) incorporate the South Pointe Design Guidelines
prepared by the aforementioned firm into an amendment to the zoning
code; 2) provide technical assistance to the City of Miami Beach
in reviewing proposals that are on properties in South Pointe
currently controlled by development agreements and/or requiring new
development agreements; and 3) develop a comprehensive
streetscape plan that incorporates the urban design concepts
contained in the South pointe Design Guidelines, including, but not
limited to, landscaping, lighting, sidewalks, signage, and
pedestrian and vehicular traffic.
BACKGROUND:
In September, 1993, the Redevelopment Agency Board approved a
professional services contract with DPZ in the amount of $25,000.
DPZ was deemed to be uniquely qualified to undertake this
assignment because of their role in earlier studies of the South
Pointe Area. The South pointe Design Guidelines presented by
Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk to the Redevelopment Agency Board on
October 19, 1994 were the result of this contract.
ANALYSIS:
When the South pointe Redevelopment Agency budget was prepared for
Fiscal Year 94-95, we envisioned a second phase to the professional
services contract would be needed. As we entered into discussions
with DPZ regarding the scope of services for the Phase II
agreement, it became apparent that the comprehensive streetscape

plan was integrally related to the design criteria established in
the South pointe Guidelines. Therefore, the Administration
believes that incorporating the streetscape plan into the scope of
services for the Phase II agreement will result in the
comprehensive, high quality design that is desired.
The detailed

design phases for construction will be awarded based
for Proposal process which will begin immediately. A
for Proposal is necessary because the anticipated
exceeds $500,000.
CONCLUSION:
The Administration recommends that the Phase II professional
services agreement with DPZ encompass three major tasks: 1)
incorporate the South pointe Design Guidelines prepared by the
aforementioned firm into an amendment to the zoning code; 2)
provide technical assistance to the City of Miami Beach in
reviewing proposals that are on properties in South pointe
currently controlled by development agreements and/or requiring new
development agreements; and 3) develop a comprehensive
streetscape plan that incorporates the urban design concepts
contained in the South pointe Design Guidelines, including, but not
limited to, landscaping, lighting, sidewalks, signage, and
pedestrian and vehicular traffic. Compensation for these services
will not exceed $75,000.
