February 3, 2026 City Commission Meeting Agenda
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Commission authorize the City Manager to negotiate and
enter into an agreement with Brightview Landscape Services, Inc., the second -ranked
proposer under RFP No. 2024-1-1, for Comprehensive Landscape Maintenance Services
for Biscayne Boulevard and the Government Center. The proposed agreement will be for
an initial three (3) year term with two (2) optional one-year extensions.
BACKGROUND
On January 11, 2024, the City of Aventura (the "City") issued Request for Proposals (RFP)
No. 2024-1-1 for Comprehensive Landscape Maintenance Services for Biscayne
Boulevard and the Government Center. Six (6) proposals were received on February 13,
2024, and the Evaluation Committee ranked the proposers as follows-
1 . SFM Landscape Services
2. Brightview Landscape Services, Inc.
3. Landscape Service Professionals
4. Superior Landscaping & Lawn Service
5. Arazoza Brothers Corp.
6. Mainguy Landscape Services
Following the ranking, the City Commission authorized the City Manager to negotiate and
execute an agreement with SFM Landscape Services, LLC. The agreement commenced
in May 2024.
Contract Performance
Over the course of the contract, City staff documented recurring deficiencies in SFM's
performance, including incomplete or untimely maintenance activities and repeated
failure to meet required service levels. The City issued notices and provided opportunities
to cure; however, the contractor did not achieve sustained compliance with contractual
standards.
In accordance with the terms of the agreement and the City Manager's delegated
authority, the City terminated the contract with SFM Landscape Services, LLC for
non-performance.
Consistent with the original competitive process and the Evaluation Committee's ranking,
staff proceeded to the next highest -ranked proposer, Brightview Landscape Services, Inc.
Staff conducted updated scope and cost discussions, and Brightview confirmed its pricing
and ability to meet all service, staffing, and performance requirements outlined in the
RFP.
Brightview Landscape Services, Inc.'s original proposal included an annual cost of
$499,000.00. Applying the 4% CPI adjustment results in an updated annual amount of
$518,960.
Based on the Evaluation Committee's ranking and the termination of the prior agreement
due to non-performance, staff recommends that the City Commission authorize the City
Manager to execute an agreement with Brightview Landscape Services, Inc. in an amount
not to exceed $518,960 annually, consistent with their proposal attached hereto as Exhibit
"A," and subject to the City Attorney's approval as to form, content, and legal sufficiency.

non-profit organization. Because of this classification, AMC is precluded from receiving
charitable contributions directly.

organization through which it accepts charitable donations for specified purposes.
Proceeds generated from AMC's Young Stars Showcase are deposited into this 501
(c)(3) account.
AMC has successfully sponsored the Young Stars Showcase for several years. The event
supports youth -focused initiatives and programming and has become a valued
community event.
For 2026, AMC wishes to hold the Young Stars Showcase at the Aventura Arts and
Cultural Center and has requested a waiver of the facility's rental fees.

MEMORANDUM
TO: City Commission
FROM- Bryan Pegues, City Manager
BY: Keven Klopp, Community Development Director /W
DATE: January 30, 2026
SUBJECT: Request to Amend the Land Development Regulations of the City of
Aventura to Create Section 31-144(g) "Aventura Metropolitan Urban
Center Zoning District Overlay"
City Case File LDR2601-0001
February 3, 2026 City Commission Meeting Agenda (First Reading)
March 3, 2026 Local Planning Agency Meeting Agenda
March 3,2026 City Commission Meeting Agenda (Second Reading)
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Commission initiate a proposed amendment to Section
31-144 "Business Zoning Districts" to create Section 31-144(g) "Aventura Metropolitan
Urban Center Zoning District Overlay" to provide zoning regulations consistent with the
"MUC" notation on the Future Land Use Map of the City's Comprehensive Plan ("FLUM").
THE REQUEST
City Commission is requesting the creation of a new Metropolitan Urban Center Zoning
District Overlay within Section 31-144 "Business Zoning Districts" of the Land
Development Regulations (the "LDRs"), to establish regulations consistent with the MUC
notation on the City's Future Land Use Map ("FLUM") and to guide higher -intensity mixed
used development centered on multimodal transit facilities and regional shopping centers.
The proposed overlay would create Section 31-144(g) "Aventura Metropolitan Urban
Center Zoning District Overlay" and establish three subdistricts - 31-144(g)(1) "Aventura
Core Subdistrict (MUC1); 31-144(g)(2) "Aventura Center Subdistrict (MUC2)"; and 31-
144(g)(3) "Aventura Edge Subdistrict (MUC3)" — including permitted and conditional uses
and site development standards.
ANALYSIS
The proposed Metropolitan Urban Center (MUC) Zoning District Overlay implements the
intent of the MUC designation on the Future Land Use Map by establishing zoning
regulations that recognize the evolving urban character of the area centered on transit
facilities and the regional mall located along Biscayne Boulevard. The overlay is designed
to guide a cohesive mix of retail, office, residential, hotel and related uses within a
compact, pedestrian oriented urban center supported by high -quality urban design, public
spaces and direct access to mass transit. The proximity of the regional mall to the
Aventura Station, including the planned direct pedestrian overpass connection, reinforces
the suitability of this area for transit -oriented development and higher intensity land uses.
By creating graduated subdistricts within the overlay, the proposed regulations promote
physical cohesiveness, multi modal accessibility and appropriate transitions, while
encouraging reinvestment, reducing reliance on automobile travel, and supporting long
term economic growth consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan.
If the proposed ordinance to amend the LDRs is approved on first reading, the next step
entails the first reading of an ordinance applying the overlay to the zoning map for the
Core subdistrict followed by the adoption of the first two ordinances along with the first
and second readings of ordinances applying the overlay to the zoning map for the Center
and Edge subdistricts.
THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT
The proposed amendment will revise Section 31-144 of the Land development
Regulations as follows:
Sec. 31-144. Business Zoning Districts.
(4) Aventura Metropolitan Urban Center (MUC) Zoning Overlay.
SEE EXHIBIT A
