SUBJECT: A Resolution of the City Commission of the City of Miami
Beach, Florida, declaring a certain geographic area
located within the City of Miami Beach, called the City
Center /Historic Convention Village Redevelopment and
Revitalization Area, described generally as being bounded
on the East by the Atlantic Ocean, on the North by 24th
Street, on the West by West Avenue, and on the South by
14th Lane, as set forth in "Exhibit A ", to be a "Blighted
Area "; making a finding of necessity as to the
rehabilitation, conservation and redevelopment, or
combination thereof, of such area; accepting a delegation
of certain powers from Dade County to the City of Miami
Beach pursuant to Part III of Chapter 163, Florida
Statutes, declaring the need to establish a community
redevelopment agency, and declaring the members of the
City Commission as the m :ambers of the community
redevelopment agency; declaring that the existing Miami
Beach Redevelopment Agency may act as the Community
Redevelopment Agency with full power to exercise all the
powers permitted by Part III of Chapter 163, Florida
Statutes, which are delegated by Dade County to the City
of Miami Beach Commission; directing the initiation ,
preparation and adoption of a redevelopment plan and any
amendments thereto by the Community Redevelopment Agency;
all for the Redevelopment of said City Center /Historic
Convention Village Redevelopment and Revitalization Area.

- Declares the proposed City Center /Historic Convention Village
Redevelopment and Revitalization Area to be a "Blighted Area ",
and makes a finding of necessity as to the rehabilitation,
conservation and redevelopment, or combination thereof of said

DATE

Commission Memorandum

- Directs the Redevelopment Agency to prepare for adoption, a
Redevelopment Plan for the City Center /Historic Convention
Village Redevelopment and Revitalization Area.
BACKGROUND:
Consistent with the actions and directions of the City Commission
over the past year, the City Administration has been working
towards a financing and development strategy to facilitate a
convention hotel. The strategy also spawned the creation of the
"City Center" concept, recognizing that Miami Beach truly has a
vibrant urban center which needs help to "put all the pieces
together." The creation of the Redevelopment Area with the tax
increment financing vehicle is the most effective tool that the
City of Miami Beach can take advantage of to realize the plan. The
City has been working with Metropolitan Dade County which plays a
major role in the creation of the new Redevelopment Area.
On January 26th, 1993, the Board of County Commissioners of
Metropolitan Dade County passed a resolution making a finding of
necessity declaring the City Center /Historic Convention Village
Redevelopment a "Blighted Area," based on the report entitled Miami
Beach Historic Convention Village - Finding of Necessity for a
Redevelopment Area, set forth as "Exhibit B" to the Commission
Memorandum.
The resolution also delegates certain redevelopment powers to the
City of Miami Beach, as follow:
A. Make findings to determine the City Center /Historic Convention
Village Redevelopment Area to be a slum or blighted Area, or a
combination thereof, of such area;
B. Make findings of necessity as to the rehabilitation,
conservation, or redevelopment, or combination thereof, of such
area;
C. Declare the need for and create a community redevelopment
agency and to delegate powers to that agency with the power to
exercise such powers which may be assigned to the agency;
D. Initiate, prepare and adopt a plan for redevelopment any
amendments thereto, which plan and amendments shall be subject
to the subsequent review and approval by the Board of County
Commissioners.
ECONOMIC IMPACT:
The creation of a Redevelopment Area allows the City to freeze the
tax base at its current value. Any increase in Ad Valorum taxes
normally going to the City and the County is directed into a trust
fund to be utilized primarily for capital projects in the
Redevelopment Area. The debt service for the County, the City and
the School District tax will not be adversely affected.
The Administration has asked the firm of Kenneth Leventhal and
Company to prepare an impact analysis concerning the creation of
the Redevelopment Area. This report will be available at the
February 3rd Commission meeting.
In general, even though the City will forego a small amount of
general fund incremental revenue, it will gain an equivalent amount
that normally would go to the County.

Commission Memorandum
Page Three
It is the Administration's firm belief that the Redevelopment
designation will induce significantly greater investment activity
than if the area remained as is. In this regard, everyone comes out
a winner because the substantial portion of the increment would
otherwise have never been realized.
In addition to the increment, the City will realize other income
from induced development including:
* increased convention development tax revenues
* increased resort tax revenues
* increased sales tax revenues
* increased utility tax revenues
ANALYSIS:
This public hearing represents the first of two "official" hearings
mandated in order to establish a community redevelopment area in
accordance with Chapter 163, Florida Statutes.
Passage of this resolution empowers the City to officially proceed
with the steps involved in establishing the proposed City
Center /Historic Convention Village Redevelopment Area. The time
frame and the steps involved are outlined in the attachment to this
Commission Memorandum.
The report entitled Miami Beach Historic Convention Village -
Finding of Necessity for a Redevelopment Area, set forth as
"Exhibit B" to the resolution, outlines the blight findings per the
resolution.
It is anticipated that the City wil] finalize the redevelopment
plan and submit it for County review by the end of February, 1993.
The County will then work with the City to prepare an interlocal
agreement and an ordinance for the County Commission's
consideration on March 16, 1993.
CONCLUSION
The City Administration is requesting that this resolution be
passed on February 3, 1993.
