Ke Intended Outcome Su orted: Maintain Miami Beach public areas & rights of way, especially in business districts. Issue: Shall the City Commission approve, on second reading, an ordinance entitled "Street Performers and Artist Vendors," authorizin street erformers and artist vendors on Lincoln Road? Item Summa IRecommendation: On September 28, 2005, the State's 3r District Court of Appeals found City ordinance 2002-3366, "Street Performers and Art Vendors," unconstitutional. This ordinance established that street performers and art vending could only be allowed with a permit, and only on certain, identified locations in the City. Since that time there has been an increase in the number of street performers and art vendors operating in the City and, in particular, the Lincoln Road area. The City has received complaints from residents and visitors strolling on Lincoln Road, as well as licensed merchants and restaurants on Lincoln Road, that the vast number of vendors and performers that are occupying public property are causing a hazard to pedestrians. Although the city recognizes the constitutional right of an artist to display and sell his/her own creation and a performer to perform, the City also recognizes its responsibility to protect the public welfare and safety. The proposed ordinance was drafted after reviewing similar legislation currently in place in other cities that regulate artist street vending through a permit or license process. The City's draft ordinance only applies to artist vendors and street performers on Lincoln Road. The proposed ordinance is recommending a minimum of twelve (12) locations on Lincoln Road, six (6) for performers and six (6) for artists, assigned by a lottery system which will be handled in a manner similar to the non-profit T-shirt vendors currently on Ocean Drive. The ordinance was approved as recommended on first reading on March 14, 2007. It is recommended that the Ma or and Commission a rove the ordinance on second readin . Adviso Board Recommendation: Neighborhoods/Community Affairs Committee review on January 11, 2007. It was referred back to Committee with changes.

TO: DATE: SUBJECT: Recommendation Approve the ordinance on second reading. Background At present, the City has no mechanism to regulate legitimate artist vending (the vending of products created by the artist) or street performers on Lincoln Road. On September 28, 2005, the State's 3rd District Court of Appeals found City Ordinance 2002-3366, "Street Performers and Art Vendors" unconstitutional. This ordinance established that street performances and artist vending could only be allowed in the City with a permit, and limited artist vending and street performances to certain, identified locations in the City. Since that time there has been an increase in the number of street performers and artist vendors operating in the City and, in particular, the Lincoln Road area. A recent sample survey (Exhibit A) reflects the number of artist vendors and street performers on Lincoln Road on four separate dates. The average total number of artist vendors/street performers in one evening in this sample survey is 33, with a high of 44 and a low of 19. This survey is reflective of the typical experience on Lincoln Road at this time. Artist vendors (defined as artists selling arts/crafts that they have personally created) and street performance artists (defined as persons that are performing for the entertainment of others, including but not limited to dance, music, pantomime, etc.) are currently occupying many of the areas on Lincoln Road that are not presently utilized by sidewalk cafes. The City recognizes the constitutional right of an artist to display and sell his or her own artistic creation, and a street performer to perform, but at the same time recognizes its responsibility to protect the public welfare and safety. We have received complaints from residents and visitors strolling on Lincoln Road, licensed merchants and restaurants on Lincoln Road, and from our staff, that many of Page 2 of 4 Artist Vendors & Street Performers vendors and performers that are occupying public property on Lincoln Road are causing a hazard to pedestrians. In particular, the manner in which the artist vendors and performers set up and operate is causing interference with the flow of pedestrian traffic and at times blocking access to the sidewalk. This is especially more of an issue during those weekends when the sidewalks are further congested with the vendors that participate in the various market programs on Lincoln Road. Concerns have also been raised about the use of extension cords, utilization of City power outlets by the vendors and performers, and utilization of generators and other power sources such as car batteries in the public right-of-way; all of these are potential fire hazards. In some instances, the artist vendors and street performers are attaching lights and signs to trees. Of greater significance, there are occasions when an accumulation of interested customers at artist vendor tables, or spectators observing the street performers, block the entrances to business storefronts, creating additional public safety concerns for patrons of those businesses that must have unimpeded egress from those businesses in the event of an emergency. In addition, there are frequent issues with vendors setting up on Lincoln Road that are selling pre- manufactured/mass produced products (often alleging they have produced these products), which is in clear violation of our existing peddling ordinance. In order to address the issues of public welfare and safety, the Neighborhoods Services Department, Code Compliance Division, created a special detail on Lincoln Road to specifically address the concerns related to vendors and street performers. As a result of this special detail, during the months of June 2006 through December 2006 alone, a total of 17 violations were issued to vendors for solicitation or peddling. This detail continues to monitor the artist vending and street performances to ensure that there are no violations of current code, and that non- permitted products are not being sold. Needless to say, this level of monitoring has been difficult during high impact weekends, such as the Super Bowl and Winter Music Conference. The proposed ordinance was drafted after reviewing similar legislation currently in place in other cities, such as New York and San Francisco. Both of these cities regulate street vending through a permitllicense process. In addition to these two cities, staff has also researched how other cities of comparable size or characteristics (e.g. Atlanta, Key West, Chicago, Boston, Santa Fe, Santa Monica and New Orleans) address this issue. All seven of these cities require a permit, and six of them identify specific areas in the City where this activity is permitted. The City's draft ordinance proposes to regulate artist vendors and street performance artists who wish to operate on Lincoln Road only; this ordinance does not address artist vending or street performance in any other part of the City. Previous Committee Review The proposed ordinance was considered at the January 11, 2007 and February 23, 2007 Neighborhoods/Community Affairs Committee meetings. Lincoln Road merchants as well as vendors were provided the proposed ordinance and invited to attend both meetings. At the January 11, 2007 meeting, comments from the committee included a request that the Fine Arts Board or some other committee be designated as the entity that would review any product submitted by artists to determine whether or not they were in fact produced by the artist. A concern was also raised regarding whether the ordinance in its current form was overly technical and whether it could be streamlined to address the primary issues that were being legislated. In addition, it was requested that the Administration identify a minimum number of locations that would be designated as artist vending/street performance artist zones in the Lincoln Road area. It was also suggested that alternative locations be identified to permit the shifting of the locations on a quarterly basis so as to mitigate the impacts to businesses with artist vendor zones or street performance zones located in front of their storefront. Page 3 of 4 Artist Vendors & Street Performers In response to the comments from the Committee at its January 11, 2007 meeting, staff revised the ordinance and presented the revisions to the Committee at their meeting of February 23, 2007. The revisions established a minimum number of artist vending and street performer artist zones for the Lincoln Road area (12); further clarified the lottery process that would be used to select applicants for permits; established enforcement/suspension/revocation conditions and process; adjusted the fine schedule; and listed basic permit regulations and prohibitions. As presented to the Committee, administrative rules and procedures governing this program will be developed prior to the implementation of the program and provided to all interested applicants at the time of permit application. At the February 23, 2007 Committee meeting, the discussion focused on three issues: the proposed hours and their relationship to other activities on Lincoln Road; the timing associated with the submission of the application, review and appeal; and the process to determine whether artists are selling products that they create. The proposed hours of operation, as detailed in Section 18-907, provide significant opportunities for artist vendors and street performers. In response to concerns with an overlap with other, pre-existing activities on Lincoln Road, it was recommended that locations be identified that created no issues for the set up of these artist vending and street performance zones. The administration has identified locations that will accommodate the hours proposed. Staff had proposed an application process that would provide sufficient time for review of the application, as well as, when needed and applicable, a review of the art that is proposed to be sold to confirm to the greatest extent possible that the art was in fact created by the applicant. To address concerns that sufficient time is needed for all of the activities required, including sufficient time for due process should an appeal of a denial of a permit application be required, the timelines for the submission of applications has been adjusted accordingly. At the request of our occupational licensing staff (who will administer the permit application process) additional time has been incorporated into the timeline to permit for the review of first-time permit applications for artist vendors. As you will note in Section 18-904 (2), a process has been developed for the City to review artist vendor applications that may require further documentation or a site visit. The ordinance also includes language that a committee designated by the City Manager, such as the Fine Arts Board, can be called upon to assist in the review of artist vendor applications, for purposes of determining if the art is infact created by the applicant. However, the review would focus solely on determining whether the art is in fact created by the applicant. This process is similar to the process used in San Francisco, where an Art Commission reviews applications to confirm that the artist applicant produces the work theywish to sell, but they do not evaluate the art in any other way. Proposed Ordinance The basic elements of the proposed ordinance are as follows: · A permit will be required for artist vending or street performance on Lincoln Road o The permit is valid for 90 days. o A set number of permits will be available each quarter, consistent with the number of available artist vending/street performance zones o If applications for permits exceed the available number of artist vending/street performance zones, a lottery system will be used to select applicants to receive the available permits · Permitting would be limited to artists displaying and signing their own creations, and street performers. o Applications for permits will be reviewed and artist vendors will be required to certify that the art they will sell has been created by them. o Only one permit can be provided per per&)n in a quarter. Page 4 of 4 Artist Vendors & Street Performers . Artist vending or street performances can only occur in designated locations (zones). o There will be a set number of zones as determined by the City; we are recommending a minimum of twelve (12) zones · These zones may change from time to time based on space availability and safety considerations. · These zones are randomly assigned to applicants selected via the lottery o Specific administrative rules will be in place regulating the size, set up, permitted activities, etc. of the zones. o Provisions are included to allow the City to relocate a zone under certain circumstances. o Artist vending and street performance zones are available seven days a week, with extended hours permitted on the weekend While there would not be a permit fee, the City would charge an application processing fee (as we do with the non-profit T-Shirt vendors). Conclusion The City has endeavored to develop an ordinance that recognizes the constitutional rights of our artist vendors and street performance artists, while ensuring the public welfare and safety. The proposed ordinance provides a mechanism for artist vending and street performances to occur on Lincoln Road in a manner that addresses these concerns.
