REVISIONS TO LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE
Chapter 12: NONCONFORMING USES AND STRUCTURES
Section 1201.
Purpose and Scope.
The purpose of this Chapter is to regulate and limit the development and continued existence of
uses, structures, and lawful lots established prior to the effective date of these ~eguJations
which do not conform to the requirements of these Regulations. Many non-conformities may
continue, but the provisions of this Chapter are designed to curtail substantial investment in
non-conformities and to bring about their eventual improvement or elimination in order to
preserve the integrity of these Regulations and the character of the City. Any nonconforming
use, structure, or lot which lawfully existed as of the effective date of these Regulations and
which remains nonconforming, and any use, structure, or lot which has become
nonconforming as a result of the adoption of these Regulations or any subsequent amendment
to these Regulations may be continued or maintained only in acèOrdance with the terms of this
Chapter.
Section 1202.
Expansion of Nonconfonnlng Use.
A nonconforming use shall not be expanded or extcnded beyond the floor area or lot area that
it occupied on the effective date of these Regulations or the effective date of any amendment to
these Regulations rendering such use nonconforming, except as provided for development
determined to have vested ri (hts pursuant to Section 103.2.2.
Section 1203.
Discontinuation or Abandonment of a Nonconforming Use.
If a nonconforming use is discontinued or abandoned, whether intentionally or not, for a period
of ninety (90) consecutive days. including any period of discontinuation or abandomuent before
the effective date of these Regulations. then that use shall not be renewed or re-established and
any subsequent use of the lot or structure shall conform to the use regulations of the land use
district in which it is located.
Section 1204.
Change of Use.
A nonconforming use may be changed to a permitted use or conditional use for the zoning
district in which the property is located subject to the review and approval requirements of the
appropriate zoning district and Conditional Uses Regulations contained in these Regulations.
Section 1205.
Repair or Reconstruction of Nonconfonnlng Structure.
1205.1
Ordinary repairs and maintenance may be made to a nonconforming
structure. The Community Development Department shall determine
"m ¿I l~t, cl{l U¿.lJ ~'"
1205.2
1205.3
!-AX NlJ,
p, U3
what constitutes "ordinary repairs and maintenance," in accordanee with
the criteria that such repairs and maintenance do not substantially alter
the structure, result in a chan~e of occupancy of the structure or
contravene or circumvent other provisions hereof.
If a nonconforming strucmre is destroyed or damaged by a flte, flood,
windstorm, or similar abnormal and identifiable event, and thc cost of
restoring the structure to its condition which existed immediately prior to
the event does nor exceed 50 percent of the cost of replacing the entire
structure, then the structure may be restored to its original
nonconforming condition, provided that a building permit is secured and
reconstruction is started within -l-W-365 days from the date of the
damage, and such reconstruction is diligently pursued to completion
wùIIoot prior to the expiration of building permits.
If a nonconforming strucmre is destroyed or damaged by a fire, flood,
windstorm, or similar abnormal and identifiable event, and the cost of
restoring the structure to its condition existinJ!; immediately prior to the
event exceeds 50 percent of the cost of replacing the entire strUcture,
then the structure shall not be restored unless tbe structure as restOred,
and the use thereof, will thereafter conform to all requirements of the
zoning district in which it is located. Notwithstanding the above,
structures may be restored when all of the criteria listed below are met.
(a) Provides no ~reater height, provides no ¡¡:reater number of dwelling
units (as to residential structUres) and no ~reater quantity of square feet
of Rross floor area (as to commercial structUres) than that which lawfully
existed immediately prior to the event of destruction; and
(b) Requires a variance, if any, only from setbacks, lot covera¡¡:e,
height, floor area ratio, motor vehicle parking area, landscaping, open-
space or similar criteria, if the grant of such variance would result in
development which is still compatible with surrounding uses and
structures and does not result in restoring a non-conforming land use
which is specifically prohibited as a use by the Zoning District
Regulations. Compatibility shall be determined upon application for a
variance pursuant to Section 506, except that the specific compatibility
criteria described below shaH be used in lieu of the unnecessary hardship
standard of 506.5.
(c) In accordance with paragraph (b) above, resroration shall be found to
be compatible if each of the elements for which a variance is necessary,

(ii)
is not dctrímenral to the appearance of the community as
protected by the Regulations;
(iii)
is compatible with the surroundinp; land uses and
structures and is not detrimental to the community.

the property owner or developer secures conditional use approval for the
enlargement or addition in accordance with the procedures in these
regulations.

authorized by Section 103.2.2, concerning vesled ri¡>;hts, under those
circumstances in which the right to alter or enlarj);e an existillj); lawfully
nonconforrninj); Structure is vested.

CIP IN BRIEF
1999 - 2004
This document has been prepared by the City of Aventura to provide important information to the public.
This briefing is a summarized version of the 1999-2004 Capital Improvement Program document.
This document represents the second update of the CIP that was originally prepared for
the five year cycle of 1997 to 2002. It is important to note that the CIP is a planning tool
to evaluate infrastructure needs of the City as well as the financial capabilities of the
City. The update process is important for the CIP to become a continuing and ongoing
planning/implementation process. The last four years of last year's program was
reevaluated in light of unanticipated needs, cost revisions, new project priorities and the
financial ability of the City. In addition, the CIP was updated to add new projects in the
fifth year (2003/04) to complete the cycle. Projects included within the framework of the
program were based on input from Commissioners, staff, City consultants and citizen
surveys.
The primary goal of the Capital Improvement Program is to develop a long - term plan
of proposed capital expenditures, the means and methods of financing, and a schedule
of priorities for implementation. The program forms the foundation for governmental
participation in the development process and represents a commitment by the
community toward the achievement and maintenance of a desirable high quality of life.
Major emphasis was placed on the following projects:
. Cultural Arts Center
. Stormwater Drainage Improvements
. Citywide Beautification Improvements
Road & Safety Improvements
Park Improvements
. Completion of Government Center
$8,000,000
3,650,000
5,655,000
1,924,000
401,000
7,980,000
It is significant to note that the funding plan has little financial impact on residents and
the community. The proposed funding plan supports the City Commission's commitment
not to increase the current Ad Valorem tax rate for the next three years, unless an
unforeseen emergency occurs or the public's health, safety welfare or best interests are
jeopardized. The only tax increase included in the funding plan is designed to support
the proposed Cultural Arts Center and is subject to voter approval. If approved it would
only result in a 4.6% tax increase.

FUNDING PLAN SUMMARY
The following represents an overview of the major points of the recommended funding
plan:
1. Utilize "pay - as - you - go" financing through annual appropriations to fund
$18,905,067 of the total five year amount of $30,405,067.
2. Utilize 1999 revenue bond proceeds in the amount of $7,000,000 to fund the
remainder of the construction of government center/police station. The annual debt
service payment of $1 ,400,000 is paid from the General Fund.
3. If approved by the voters, issue long term general obligation bond proceeds in the
amount of $4,500,000 to fund the Cultural Arts Center. The annual debt service
payment of $315,000 would be paid from a voter approved debt tax increase of
4.6%, which is approximately $23.00 a year for the average resident.
4. Utilize bank loan proceeds for Stormwater drainage improvements in an amount that
generates $2,500,000. The annual debt service of $250,000 will be paid from the
proceeds of the Stormwater Utility fees.
5. No increase in the operating ad valorem tax rate is proposed over the five year plan.
6. Utilize funding from Florida Department of Transportation in the amount $1,300,000
to supplement the City's Beatification plans on Biscayne Blvd.
7. Utilize funding from impact fees (Police Impact Fee Fund), grants and private
contributions in the amount of $2,439,322 to assist in the funding of the Cultural Arts
Center, drainage, beautification plans and police equipment.
The proposed funding plan involves a commitment to annual appropriations established
in yearly budgets and long term financing for major projects that are contained in the
Capital Improvement Program Long Term Financing Action Plan.
Pav-As-You-Go
It has been determined that those projects outlined in the five year program but not
included in the Long Term Financing Action Plan will be financed under a pay-as-you-go
methodology in that they represent a large number of relatively small dollar recurring
projects.
Bond Financina
It has been determined that those projects as shown on the Long Term Financing
Action Plan will be financed through the issuance of revenue bonds This financing
methodology works well with a small number of relatively large dollar value non
recurring projects which generally will exist to benefit the current and future resident
during the life of the debt.

Mayor Penelas's Transit Not Tolls Proposal - One Cent Sales' Tax
Increase
FROM:
DATE:
SUBJECT:
Miami-Dade County Mayor Penelas has proposed a Transportation Improvement
Package that involves eliminating tolls on certain roads and generating new revenue
from a one cent sales tax increase. The federal government will not fund solutions to
Miami-Dade County's worsening traffic congestion problem unless they provide a local
dedicated revenue match. If the County fails to take action by September 30 of this year
and does not submit a financial plan, billions of dollars of federal funds available for
Miami-Dade transportation projects will be diverted to other part$ of the county. A
complete overview of the Miami-Dade Mayor's proposal is attacheQ.
As part of the proposal, a Municipal Revenue enhancement component is included. The
proposal will replace the Local Option Gas Tax revenues lost to the municipalities whtm
the gas tax was reduced by twp cents 2 years ago. In the City of Aventura's case, we
would receive an annual amount of $66,000 and a retroactive payment of $124,000. In
addition, the proposal incluqes County Public Works Department expenditures
estimated at $31,000 for tr :lffic pavement markings, traffic signal preventative
maintenance and traffic sign r,placernent. The proposal also includes funding for the
City's shuttle bus service in thE! category of "Improvements to be determined".
Based on the success of the City's shuttle bus service and the proposed amount of
project funding in the northeast Miami-Dade, area I feel it would be appropriate to
request the County to consider assisting in the funding of the $225,000 it takes to run
the service. This will allow the City to expand the services and eliminate the proposed
fare, and addresses the transportation enhancements contained in the Miami-Dade
County Mayor's overall theme.
I have placed this matter on the Workshop Agenda for discussion and possible direction
from the City Commission.

DATE:

FROM:
SUBJECT:
Transit Not Tolls
Miami-Dade County and its people are facing an historic challenge as we embark on the 21" Century. Our
community is confronted with a transportation crisis that has escalated over the past 20 years and has culminated in
Miami-Dade county being ranked as the third most congested metropolitan area in the nation. Traffic congestion
has seriously affected all of our lives. We have' less time for our families, longer commutes to work, and greater air
pollution, to mention but a few of the serious consequences. An errand that used to take 20 minutes a few years ago
now takes over an hour.
How we choose to address this problem will have a dramatic effect on our quality of life well into the m!xt century.
The reality is that if we do not take action by September 30 of this year and, in fact, submit a financial plan by
August, the billions of dollars of federal funds available for Miami-Dade transportation projects will be diverted to
other parts of the country. We, as a community, will either create a viable transportation system of roads and transit
for future generations or face a certain future of worsening traffic congestion and eventual total gridlock.
Since I announced my package of Comprehensive Transportation Funding altematives in March, we have completed
the many tasks essential to forging a realistic strategy for resolving this problem. I can now report to you that we
have thoroughly examined all of the alternatives available to our county govemment that would provide the local
match needed to qualify for billions of federal and state dollars. These dollars are critical to building a viable county-
wide transportation system that will better our quality of life in years to come.
During this time we looked at many possible solutions, but leamed that no individual approach or even any
combination of approaches would be acceptable to the public and also create enough money to accomplish what we
need to do in a timely manner. Only the legally.authorlzed penny increase In the sales tax will yield sufficient
revenue for us to cover our existing transportation needs, provide the federal match for the billions of
dollars required to build sub&tantial n- nail.lines and dramatically expand our bus service.llli! eliminate
county. expressway tolls. If we are not wilfing to accept a penny sales tax to fund a comprehensive ~
transportation system, then, in the years to come, we will face a mass proliferation of toll roads and greater
congestion throughout Miami-Dade County.
In addition to dealing with our incredibly difficult transportation problem, an additional penny of sales tax will also
enable us to address some very important quality of life issues, either from the proceeds of the sales tax itself or
from moneys released from the General Fund.
The need for a capability to address important transportation, infrastructure and quality of life issues was brought
clearly into focus in the County Manager's memorandum of April 15. 1999 in which he spoke of a County in financial
decline and identified serious".. .unmet or deferred departmental needs." including:
. "12,000 miles of pavement markings that remain in need of re~riping";
. "In excess of 1 0,000 traffic signs that are faded. covered with graffiti or missing and require replacement";
. "1,200 annual pothole complaints remain unanswered and over 50,000 drains remain unattended every year";
. 05,li.99 )10:-; 16:12 ,".n :)O53i51358
Stephen )1 Spratt
,¿ 00:)
. "Over the past fIVe years, Miami-Dade's Transit Agency has experienced a 14% increase in expenses";
"An inability to replace one-tenth of our bus fleet on a yearly basis"; and
"Capital maintenance of rail and mover stations has been dangerously dèferred. The rail fleet is now 15 years
old and is Showing signs of aging,'
THE LIST IS ENDLESS. I want this community to be well served g!J!1 to be financially strong. That can only be
achieved by addressing these and many other funding needs head on.
This is a recommendation that I struggled with. As you all know. I have always believed that raising taxes should be
the last alternative to solving a problem. If there was any other viable solution to this crisis, believe me, I would not
be making this recommendation. However, I am convinced that this recommendation is the only true sOlution.
In my package of Comprehensive Transportation Funding a:tematives, I alerted you that the federal government will
not fund solutions to Miami-Dade County's worsening traffic congestion unless we provide a local, dedicated match.
Since then. the Florida Legislature has refused to grant additional state money to us for the same reason. Although
ours is the third most traffic-congested urban area in the United States. we have real solutions to our transportation
dilemma within our reach. We have completed the federally-required planning stages for vital projects such as our
East-West Transit Corridor and North Corridor Metrorail Extension, but we desperately need a consistent and
reliable funding source to secure the federal funds needed to build them.
Through the extensive dialogue I have had with opinion leaders and everyday citizens from throughout our County, I
have come to a clear understanding. Our constituents believe that toll plazas create traffic congeStion. Their
frustratiol'l was made worse whel'l the Miami-Dade Expres$Way Authority increased those very tolls. That single act
has galvanized the public in favor of increasing the sales tax and doing away with the onerous tolls on the
expressways. Clearly, the mood of the public now is that they want transit, not tolls. I have also learned that our
citizens want county govemmel'lt to take action to reduce traffic il'l their neighborhoodS as well as 01'1 our highways.
They want a comprehensive program.
Although transportation issues have soared to the top of the list of community concerns, there are a number of
quality of life issues that the public also wants us to address. The tasks I set for myself, and to which I have
appointed an ad hoc committee of your colleagues, have been to find an effective way to deal with transportation, to
give the public relief from the tolls. and to address as many of the quality of life issues as we possibly can with the
new resources.
I expressed to you last March that I thought it urgent to talk with federal officials to find out (1) if the Fall, 1999 cutoff
of fundil'lg was a reality, and (2) if there were any alternative ways for us to deal with the problem. At the same time I
pledged to personally take our critical transportation needs to Tallahassee and seek relief with state funds al'ld
legislative action. I and others have spoken repeatedly with federal officials and with legislators from other parts of
Florida who deal with transportation matters. Everywhere we turned, the response was loud al'ld clear. Unless we
identify a significant recurring souræ of funding for tral'lsportation we will not receive one oenny more of federal or
state money for uraentlv l'Ieeded new croiects.
I am aware that the Tral'lsportation Action Group is col'lsidering altematives to the pel'lny surtax. Unfortunately,
those altematives all require substantial legislative change in Tallahassee and/or Washington. We simply do l'Iot
have the time to undertake additional legislative strategies (with uncertain outcomes) that will jeopardize our ability
to meet unyielding federal deadlines. I reiterate al'ld strongly emphasize that if we do not take action by September
30 of this year and. in fact. submit a financial plan by August, the billions of dollars of federal funds available for
Miami-Dade transportation projects will be diverted to other parts of the country.
05.1i.99 )1O~ 16 1¿ fAX 5055i51O5(,
Stephen .\1 Spratt
<1]'00.
Now I ask you to join me in support of this historic effort and take on the challenge facing us all by planning for our
future, for our children's futures and for the future of our community. If we act courageously now to resolve Miami.
Dade County's transportation crisis, we will truly enhance the quality of life for citizens in all walks of life in the years
to come. This is the time to act. We should ask the question: "If we can't do it now, then when can we do it?" We
must set aside any political or philosophical differences and rally together to support what I believe will be this
County's last and most significant accomplishment of the 20" Century: a fully-funded transportation plan that will
take us well into the 21" Century and that will cement our position as one of the true international metropolises of the
world.
I will submit to you ordinances and/or resolutions for consideration at the May 26 meeting of the Transportation
Action Group to meet this worthy and critical goal.

MUNICIPAL REVENUE ENHANCEMENTS
A share of the sale tax proceeds will be allocated to replace Local Option Gas Tax
revenues lost to mwricipalities when the gas tax was reduced by two cents. For the
City of Aventura, it is estimated that $66,000 in prospective annual revenues
