Program Area: School Resource Officer (OlA)
Program Dates: 10/01/05 through 09/30/06
Program Name: School Resource Officer
Target Population: School Age Youth
Problem Identification
Since it's inception in November 1995, the city of Aventura has grown tremendously. With that growth,
a change in the demographics also occurred. Aventura went from a predominantly elderly or retiree
community to one that now includes a large number of young families. Currently the police department
provides services to their youth at neighboring community schools. Opening in the fall of this year,
Aventura Charter Elementary School will be the first public school in the city, for students grades K-5.
It's the police department's objective to provide a safe drug free environment to these and all students
in Aventura. A School Resource Officer will be assigned to work at the city's new school.
Proqram DescriDtion
The presence of a School Resource Officer will provide a number of benefits in the new charter school.
Besides offering protection for the school and students, the presence of the SRO will serve as a
deterrent to unwanted intruders. Additionally, in-service orientations will be provided to school staff
and teachers along with presentations for parents at monthly Parent Teacher Association meetings.
The SRO will become a familiar face in classrooms while conducting classes on safety, crime
prevention, and conflict management. In addition, Aventura's SRO will implement an after-school
training program designed to empower its youth. This victim empowerment program, called Resisting
Aggression Defensively, includes a 5 class curriculum on aggression training techniques. It is intended
to promote safety and awareness for youth in everyday surroundings. The RADKids curriculum is
structured to address self defense and self awareness in today's youth. In addition it provides youth
with healthy techniques on how to deal with aggression. Curriculum materials include training gear, i.e.
helmets, elbow and knee pads and floor mats. Each kit includes gear for four youth and one instructor
package. The above is just a few of the many services that will be available in this new charter school.
Other services will include DARE classes, Red Ribbon activities, a mentoring program and a host of
other services for these school age kids. Grant funds will be used to purchase program supplies
needed to support program activities.
Year One Activities/AccomDlishments & Unmet Needs (2003-2004)
This grant year has proven to be a great success. With the new local elementary school, ACES, the
SRO unit has provided services to more than 500 students. Although most of the schools Aventura
provides services for are outside of their city limits, their SRO's have conducted in-service orientations,
counseling sessions for students and parents, and prevention education classes. The department
reports an overwhelming response to their programs including the newly created after school RADKids
program.
In the upcoming year, Aventura will continue with its program much like it is structured currently.
Officers will create a Youth Crime Watch Program on the ACES campus. Additionally, a new middle
school will open in Aventura this year. To meet the demands of the added student population, an SRO
officer will be assigned to this site. The department will train an additional officer for their RADKID
program and use grant funds to provide for the supplies and equipment used in all their SRO activities.
Year Two Activities/Accomolishments & Unmet Needs (2004-2005)
Since it's incorporation in November 1995 growth in the city of Aventura has been dramatically
influenced by the influx of young families. Along with the demographic makeup, the city that once had
no schools in their city limits will soon have a new middle school. Currently, the department provides
services to their local schools using two SRO officers. During the new grant year, Aventura will use
one of these officers in the new middle school, serving an additional 300 students. While the primary
focus will be to provide protection for students, SRO officers will continue to provide prevention
education classes, in service orientations, and counseling for parents. Core services to the two
elementary schools will not be affected by the additional community needs. Officers will be a visible
force on campus, while providing support and guidance through a number of safety and prevention
programs, including the RadKids curriculum, during the upcoming grant year. Grant funds will be
issued to provide for program supplies and equipment for proposed activities.

DATE:
October 10, 2005
SUBJECT: Dade County Association of Chiefs of Police Technology

November 1, 2005 City Commission Meeting Agenda Item 5 -C,
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached Resolution authorizing
the City to participate in the Technology Enhancement Project Grant on behalf of the
Dade County Association of Chiefs of Police. The program expands access to the
existing video conferencing profile center technology by providing additional strategic
locations for new centers. This would greatly reduce time and distance factors for
victims and witnesses of crimes and decrease on-duty officer "downtime".
The program is a continuation of the current grant and is administered through the
City's Police Department. The grant is in the amount of $37,219. The various police
agencies will be responsible for the matching amount of $12,406.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Program Name: Technology Enhancement Project Target Population: Miami-Dade County
Problem Identification
Prior to the implementation of the Dade Chiefs Association Technology Enhancement Project,
the State Attorneys Office (SAO) in Miami-Dade County conducted felony pre-file conferences
with arresting officers, victims, and witnesses at one of three locations in a county that covers
a geographical area of approximately 2,000 square miles. These three decentralized video
pre-filing centers were located in Northeast Miami-Dade County, Southwest Miami-Dade
County, and at the Miami-Dade State Attorneys Office downtown in the City of Miami.
The problem with having only three video pre-file centers for such a vast geographical territory
is that law enforcement officers, victims and witnesses often were required to travel long
distances when they are scheduled for testimony, most often to the center located in
downtown Miami. Civilian victims and witnesses sacrificed time away from their jobs and the
expense of traveling miles from their homes to the available centers. Also, the limited
availability of pre-file centers required that law enforcement personnel leave their jurisdictions
to complete video pre-filing at times when they are on duty, further exacerbating staffing and
response time challenges for police agencies. Collaborative efforts that embrace a
metropolitan regional approach to improving interagency efficiency are needed to advance the
overall effectiveness of Miami-Dade County's criminal justice system.
Expanding access to the existing video conferencing pre-file center technology by providing
additional strategic locations for new centers will continue to reduce the time and distance
factor for civilian victims and witnesses, and greatly decrease on-duty officer "down time"
during round trip travel to the centers. Officers have been able to return more rapidly to
patrolling their jurisdictions where they are needed. The efficiencies achieved by the project in
the previous two years will be enhanced by adding additional pre-file sites
Proqram Description
The Dade Chiefs Technology Enhancement Project is a collaborative partnership between the Dade
County Association of Chiefs of Police and the Miami-Dade County Office of the State Attorney. This
project proposes to incrementally expand accessibility of the video pre-file conferencing services to all
municipal police departments in the county, as well as all regions of the Miami-Dade Police
Department.
During the first year, the Project purchased 12 complete video pre-file units (see description below)
and distributed them between local police departments and the State Attorney's Office (SAO). To date,
the SAO has trained all of the Assistant State Attorneys (ASA's) and clerical personnel assigned to the
Felony Screening Unit (FSU) in the operation of the system. The SAO currently has six ASA's that can
use the system at one time. As more agencies are added, the SAO will increase personnel to
accommodate them. The Aventura Police Department served as the initial host site representing the
Dade County Association of Chiefs of Police and conducted a successful pilot project with the SAO to
test system functionality and capabilities, and develop procedures for obtaining maximum
effectiveness. Currently there are five (5) police department sites on-line and conducting video pre-
files. A 6th location will be added sometime within the n ex! 30 days; it will be a sub-station of the
Miami-Dade Police Department.
During the second year, the Project funded the purchase installation and maintenance of 6 complete
video pre-file units that include DSL lines, View Stations, Monitors, and DSL Routers. Three more
agencies were added as shared host sites, wherein agencies that do not have their own hardware can
go to the nearest shared host site and conduct their video pre-files. These more strategically dispersed
video conferencing sites have allowed more civilian victims, witnesses, and others to got heir local
police departments or to nearby shared host-sites to conduct their video pre-files.
The goal for FY2006 is to expand the Project, by purchasing 4 additional Pre-file units, and to continue
to maintain the DSL lines of all participating sites: The SAO host site, the 6 existing sites and the 3
MDPD (Miami-Dade Police Department) sites (currently in the process of procuring funds to participate
in this project). Additionally, the goal for this year is to keep all sites up and running for the host
agencies and to encourage non-site agencies to use the facilities of host agencies. This will translate
into time and fuel savings, since officers do not have to drive to the pre-file site, and will keep officers
within their respective and/or neighboring jurisdiction, enabling them to respond to calls for service in a
timelier manner. The equipment will be purchased under a current Sate Attorney's Office contract
agreement which by law complies with existing Federal, State and local laws and regulations.

Resolution Authorizing Execution of Agreement With the State
Attorney for Prosecution of Aventura Code Violators
November 1, 2005 City Commission Meeting Agenda Item ~ J.4
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Commission authorize the execution of an Agreement
with the State Attorney's Office for the prosecution of Aventura Code Violations.
BACKGROUND
The State Legislature amended Section 27.01 Florida Statutes to provide that the State
Attorney shall appear in the courts to prosecute violations of municipal ordinances if the
prosecution is ancillary to a state prosecution or if the State Attorney has contracted
with the municipality for reimbursement for services rendered. The legislators passed
similar laws requiring municipalities to pay for the representation of criminal defendants
by the public defender's office.
As a result, those cases that a City requests the State Attorney's Office to prosecute will
be subject to a charge of $50.00 per hour each to the State Attorney and Public
Defender.
Attached hereto is the subject Agreement which provides the option to the City to utilize
the State Attorney's Office.

City Manager
BY:
DATE: October 6,2005
SUBJECT: Request of Clear Channel Outdoor for revision to the approval granted
through Resolution No. 2003-06 (01-MRC-05)
November 1, 2005 City Commission Meeting Agenda Item /l)
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Commission
Condition 1) of the approval granted through
following conditions:
approve the requested revIsion to
Resolution No. 2003-06, upon the
.
1. All conditions of Resolution No. 2003-06 not revised through this approval shall
remain the same and in full force and effect; and
2. All advertising on the rear (west) face of the sign will comply with the terms of
the agreement made between the applicant and the City approved by Resolution
No. 2005-39 on September 6, 2005.
THE REQUEST
The applicant, Clear Channel Outdoor, is requesting modification to Condition 1) of the
approval granted through Resolution No. 2003-06 in order to substitute a revised plan
that permits commercial advertising on the southern most panel of the rear (west) face
of its billboard. The billboard is located at the southwest corner of Biscayne Boulevard
and Ives Dairy Road. Resolution No. 2003-06 currently provides that only a "Welcome
to Aventura" sign is permitted on the rear (west) face of the sign. (See Exhibit #1 for
Letter of Intent, Exhibit #2 for Location Plan and Exhibit #3 for photograph of the rear
face of the sign)
BACKGROUND
On January 7, 2003, the applicant was granted approval through Resolution No. 2003-
06 to modify an existing commercial advertising sign and to elevate the sign to an
overall height of 55 feet. This sign is located at the southwest corner of Biscayne
Boulevard and Ives Dairy Road. The 2003 approval was granted upon the following
conditions:
1) Plans shall substantially comply with that submitted as follows:
· Specific Purpose Survey, Clear Channel Outdoor Inc., Sheet 1 of 1, prepared
by Bloomster Professional Land Surveyors Inc., dated 4/12/02, revised
4/23/02,7/11/02,9/27/02, 10/30/02 and 12/10/02, signed and sealed.
2) Permits shall be obtained within twelve (12) months of the date of the Resolution
or the approvals granted shall be deemed null and void unless extended by a
motion of the City Commission.
3) The applicant agrees to fulfill all of its obligations defined in Section II of the
agreement made between Clear Channel Outdoor Inc. and the City of Aventura
dated September 3, 2002. These obligations include, but are not limited to, the
following:
i. The applicant will demolish and completely remove, within 30 days of
issuance of permits, Billboards Nos. 1 and 6 depicted on Exhibits "B" and "C"
respectively to this Resolution, prior to modification of Billboard No. 2
depicted on Exhibit "D" to this Resolution.
ii. The applicant will advise Florida East Coast Railway Company, within 10
days of the date of this Resolution, that it has no objection to the obstruction,
if any, of visibility of certain billboards which are situated upon the ground or
upon buildings or structures located on or near the FEC right of way in the
vicinity of Biscayne Boulevard and NE 187 Street.
iii. No replacement of Billboards No.1 and No.6 will be installed.
iv. No further billboards will be installed at any location in the City of Aventura.
4) As proffered by the applicant at the November 21, 2002 City Commission
workshop meeting, the applicant voluntarily agreed to the imposition of a
condition, herein imposed, to be further supported by applicant's recordable
covenant to the City, that no advertisement for "adult use" as defined in Section
31-21 of the City's Land Development Regulations shall be placed on the subject
sign.
5) As proffered by the applicant at the January 7, 2003 Commission meeting, the
applicant voluntarily agreed to the imposition of the condition, herein imposed, to
be further supported by the applicant's recordable covenant to the City, that the
variance granted by this Resolution shall expire on a date which is twelve years
after the date of adoption of this Resolution, to-wit: January 6, 2015 (the
2
"Expiration Date"), and Billboard No.2, as modified and elevated pursuant to this
variance, shall be completely demolished and removed by the applicant or
applicant's successors on or before the Expiration Date.
6) The applicant shall provide its recordable covenant to the City that it and its
successors will not object to the existing or any future landscaping in the center
median of Biscayne Boulevard in the vicinity of the subject sign and confirming
irrevocably that the applicant has no objection to any existing City landscaping in
the FEC right-of-way at any location in the City.
7) That the form and substance of the covenants described in Conditions
numbered 4), 5) and 6) above shall be subject to the approval of the City
Attorney. The covenants are required prior to permit issuance.
Conditions 2) through 7) have been fulfilled. Building permits were obtained within 12
months of the date of the resolution. The covenant was recorded as required.
The plan approved in Condition 1) indicated that the rear (west) side of the billboard
was to be "blacked out" except that a "Welcome to the City of Aventura" sign may be
erected on this side of the sign at the City's option. This is the condition subject of this
revision request. The applicant wishes to place advertising on the southern most panel
of the rear (west) side of the sign, while maintaining the "Welcome to the City of
Aventura" sign on the northernmost panel. It has submitted a new plan that deletes the
requirement to "black out" this face. The revised plan is attached as Exhibit #4.
The applicant entered into agreement with the City in September of 2005 by which the
applicant agrees to dedicate and pay to the City at least fifty (50%) percent of all net
revenue received from the use of the southern most panel of the billboard back for
commercial advertising purposes, payable in monthly installments to be utilized by the
City for operational or capital expenses of the City of Excellence Charter Schools. The
agreement was approved by the City Commission by Resolution No. 2005-39 on
September 6, 2005. The applicant has agreed that the billboard back will not be used
for advertising that includes or refers to alcoholic beverages, tobacco products, pari-
mutuel gaming, adult entertainment uses or any use that is reasonably objectionable to
the City. The northern most panel is reserved for the "Welcome to the City of
Aventura" sign unless the City Commission by future motion later determines that the
entire billboard back may be used for advertising. This agreement is effective only in
the event that the City Commission grants the requested modification to Condition 1) of
Resolution No. 2003-06. The applicant acknowledges that the City Commission will
make its decision upon the modification in accordance with the pertinent variance
condition modification criteria provided by Section 31-76(f) of the City Code and the
quasi-judicial procedures of the City.
ANALYSIS:
3
Section 31-76(f) of the City's Land Development Regulations provide that the City
Commission may impose such conditions and restrictions upon the premises benefited
by a variance as may be necessary to comply with the standards of review and to
prevent or minimize adverse effects on other property in the neighborhood. The
standards of review were demonstrated to be satisfied by Resolution No. 2003-06. The
applicant has fulfilled the conditions of that resolution. It has also entered into a new
agreement with the City to limit the type of advertising that can be placed on the rear
(west) side of the sign which will prevent or minimize adverse effects on other property
in the neighborhood. Staff therefore recommends approval of the request to modify
Condition 1) of Resolution No. 2003-06 to allow advertising on the back (west) side of
the commercial advertising sign located at the southwest corner of Biscayne Boulevard
and Ives Dairy Road.

mailing labels for properties within a 300 foot radius of the Billboard
Back and deliver to the City duly executed Representative and Business
Relationship Affidavits in form and substance acceptable to the City.
The granting of the modification would benefit both the City and
Clear Channel and be in keeping with the spirit of the Resolution.
Very truly yours,

3. Approve the request for amendment to Section 31-171, "Off Street Parking and
Loading Standards" to revise generalized parking values for large shopping

THE REQUEST
o
The applicant, Turnberry Associates is requesting three amendments to the City's Land
Development Regulations. The first amendment is to add a definition of "gross leasable
area" to the definitions in Section 31-21 of the Code. The second amendment is to amend
Section 31-144{c)(5)a. to require a minimum of 15% of the total lot area as landscaped
open space for shopping centers with more than 1,000,000 square feet of gross leasable
area. The third amendment is a change the generalized parking values contained in
Section 31-171(12) of the Code to permit a standard of 1 parking space for each 250
square feet of gross leasable area for shopping centers with more than 1,000,000 square
feet of gross leasable area. (See Exhibit #1 for Letter of Intent)
BACKGROUNDIDESCRIPTION OF AMENDMENTS
Staff has been in discussion with the applicant over the past several months regarding the
proposed mall expansion to accommodate a new anchor store. The applicant has-
identified two concerns with the existing code requirements as they relate to the proposed
expansion. Those concerns are the open space requirement and the parking standards.
I. Open Space Requirement
The applicant's first concern is the landscaped open space required in the B2 zoning
district. Based on the percentage of existing parking spaces located in parking structures,
Section 31-144(c)5a. of the Code requires a minimum of 36% landscaped open space on
the mall site. The applicant has provided plans showing that the current landscaped open
space in the mall property is 15% of the site. This was the open space requirement under
the County Code in effect when the Mall was constructed. The proposed expansion
triggers the City Code requirement of 36% landscaped open space.
When the City's zoning code was first enacted in July of 1999, there was no minimum
landscaped open space set out in the site development criteria of the B2 zoning district.
Landscaped open space was determined by setbacks, buffer areas, parking lot islands
and medians required by the landscaping section of our code. There has been one retail
plaza constructed under that Code requirement. The Aventura Town Plaza, a two story
plaza containing 68,000 square feet of retail and office spaces and a bank with drive
through, has 26% landscaped open space on its site based on those code criteria. Two
large shopping centers in the City, namely, the Promenade Shops with 315,000 square
feet of floor area and Aventura Commons with 267,000 square feet of floor area, both built
under the former County Code, have 13% and 15% landscaped open space respectively.
In October of 2001, the commercial zones in the City Code were changed to encourage
structured parking which would then provide opportunity for more green space. The
maximum height in the B2 zone was changed from 20 stories or 200 feet to 20 stories or
341 feet to accommodate parking levels underneath the building. As the building height
increases, a greater percentage of open space is required. For example, a building with 0
2
to 33% of parking in a structure, 33 to 35% open space is required. A building with 33 to
66% requires 36 to 37% open space and a building with 66 to 100% of parking in a
structure requires 39 to 40% open space. While this open space requirement is
appropriate for tall, thin office buildings, it does not work well for large, low rise shopping
centers.
As the City Commission is aware, one of the recommendations of the 2005 Evaluation
and Appraisal Report of the City's Comprehensive Plan is that existing intensities,
including building heights, be examined. If reduced building heights are being examined
in this zone and the same logic is used, that is, more open space is required as height
increases, less open space would result as height decreases.
For comparison purposes, staff has researched landscaped open space requirements for
other regional malls in the County. The fOllowing table shows the results of that research.

acrea e
No minimum open space

No minimum open space

Village of Sal Harbour
(Sa I Harbour Shops)
In staffs opinion, for regional shopping centers, 15% landscaped open space would
suffice for aesthetic purposes since large open areas are not needed for public use in this
type of commercial environment. What is needed for public comfort in a regional mall are
public plazas with seating areas to meet others or rest, shaded areas, water features,
landscaped corridors for pedestrians in enclosed areas that can also function as
recreational walking areas outside of mall tenant operating hours and other public
amenities such as art displays.
The proposed amendment is to allow shopping centers with more than 1,000,000 square
feet of gross leasable area that provide public amenities including, but not limited to, public
plazas, fountains or other water features, seating areas and recreational walking areas
and that do not exceed 5 stories in height to provide 15% landscaped open space. This
15% landscaped open space is to be extensively landscaped with grass, trees and
shrubbery in accordance with a landscaped plan to be approved by the City. Non-leasable
enclosed or non"enclosed areas which are landscaped, have water features or have
permanent art displays may be counted as part of the required landscaped open space
provided these areas do not exceed 10% of the required open space.
3
II. Parking Standards
The applicant's second concern is the parking required for large shopping centers.
Section 31-171 of the City Code sets out the parking required for individual uses, but also
provides that shopping centers with more than 40,000 square feet of gross floor area may
use generalized parking values. Centers with 40,000 to less than 200,000 square feet of
gross leasable area may provide one parking space for each 225 square feet of gross
floor area. Centers with 200,000 or more square feet or more of gross leasable area may
provide one parking space for each 200 square feet of gross floor area.
The Code further provides that any expansion of existing floor area requires an additional
number of parking spaces based on the area of the expansion. As currently enacted, at
one space for each 200 square feet for an expansion with 254,000 square feet of gross
floor area, the Code requires 1,270 new parking spaces. The applicant has requested
that the Code be revised to require one space for each 250 square feet for 216,300
square feet of gross leasable area, or 865 spaces for the proposed expansion.
Staff has researched parking requirements for other regional malls in the County. The
following table shows the results of that research.

(based on 254,000 square feet
of gross floor area, no theatre
or restaurant in expansion
area)
889 spaces
(based on 254,000/21200 and
254,000/2/500)
865 spaces
(based on 216,300 square feet
of expansion area)
The applicant's basis for its request to reduce the number of parking spaces is that
increased square footage in a center increases the opportunity for shared parking, that is,
one vehicle occupying one parking space may make stops at several different stores, at
restaurants or at the theatre and thus reduce the number of vehicles to the site and
therefore decrease the number of parking spaces needed. The applicant is further
requesting that the number of spaces be based on the gross leasable square footage
rather than the gross floor area, since regional malls have corridors, walkways, service
and mechanical rooms that do not generate a parking need. Staff agrees with this
reasoning.
The proposed amendments are to include a definition of gross leasable area in Section
31-21 of the Code and to amend the generalized parking values in Section 31-171(12) of
the Code to provide that shopping centers with more than 40,000 and less than 1,000,000
square feet of gross leasable area can opt to provide one parking space for each 225
square feet of gross leasable area and shopping centers with 1,000,000 or more square
feet of gross leasable area can opt to provide one parking space for each 250 square feet
of gross leasable area.

Aventura, Florida 33180
Exhibit #1
02-LDR-05
Re: Letter of Intent; Land Development Code Amendment re: Landscaped
Open Space and Parkin!; Requirements
Dear Mr. Soroka:
This law firm represents Turnberry Associates, Ine. (the" Applicant"),
with regard to an application to amend the City of Aventura Land Development
Code for parking and landscaped open space requirements for large scale
shopping centers.
Introduction. The City's landscaped open space and parking
requirements are unduly restrictive for an existing regional mall, as compared to
other jurisdictions throughout Miami-Dade County. These restrictions would
put Aventura Mall, a super regional mall, at a competitive disadvantage with
respect to other area regional malls. The City's LDR's need to allow reasonable
and feasible improvements to the mall so that it can attract Nordstrom and other
high profile businesses into the City.
Landscaped Open Space Requirements. The current landscaped open
space requirement was introduced by a 2001 City ordinance imposing new
standards for structured parking. The purpose of these standards was to
encourage increased height and landscaped open space throughout the City.
Although this may have made sense for office developments, it is inappropriate
for lower scale retail development, especially regional malls such as the
Mr. Eric Soroka
September 21, 2005
Page 2
Aventura Mall. It is also important to note that prior to the 2001 ordinance, there
were no landscaped open space requirements for the business district.
Additionally, we have reviewed the landscaped open space requirements
for other jurisdictions throughout the County, and this analysis, attached as
Exhibit A, clearly shows how Aventura is out of line with the standard
requirements. While the landscaped open space requirements are typically
between 10 - 18% of total square footage, the City of Aventura's requirement is
for 36% as applied to the mall. This puts Aventura's requirements at more than
double what they would be in other municipalities.
Parkin~ Requirements. The parking requirements of the City are also
too restrictive as applied to Aventura Mall. A similar analysis of the
requirements of other municipalities with regional malls shows that the City's
requirements are unduly burdensome. The City requires 1 parking space for
each 200 square feet of gross floor area. By contrast, Miami-Dade County's
requirements which apply to Dadeland Mall, the Falls and Dolphin Mall,
provide for 1 space for each 350 square feet of gross floor area (with the
exception of theaters and restaurants) and the Bal Harbour Village Code, which
applies to Bal Harbour Shops, requires 4 spaces for every 1,000 square feet of
gross leasable floor area (or 1 space for every 250 square feet). Hence, the City
currently requires more parking than Bal Harbour and Miami-Dade County.
Additionally, Aventura's LDR's require 1 parking space for each 225
square feet of gross floor area in shopping centers with less than 200,000 square
feet of gross leasable area; yet require 1 parking space for each 200 square feet of
gross floor area in shopping centers with 200,000 square feet or more of gross
leasable area. In other words, the LDR's require proportionately more parking
for larger centers than small centers. This is unusual because typically codes
require less parking per square foot as the size of the center increases, based on
the theory that there is more opportunity for shared parking as size increases.
Proposed Amendments. The proposed ordinance attempts resolve these
concerns in the following manner:
. Providing a definition for "gross leasable area" in Section 31-21, defined as
"the total area within a retail or office property that is available for tenants
and upon which tenants actually pay rent;"
· Amending Section 31-171 so that shopping centers with over 1,000,000
square feet of gross leasable area will be required to provide 1 parking
Mr. Eric Soroka
September 21, 2005
Page 3
space for each 250 square feet of gross leasable area. Currently, these
shopping centers are in the same category as all shopping centers over
200,000 square feet of gross floor area and require 1 parking space for each
200 square feet; and
· Amending Section 31-144, so that shopping centers with more than
1,000,000 square feet of gross leasable area, must follow a separate set of
landscaped open space requirements which consider several factors,
including total lot area, number of stories, and the amount of landscaped
areas inside the shopping centers.
For all the foregoing reasons, the applicant respectfully requests your
favorable review and recommendation of this application. Should you have any
questions, comments, or require additional information, please do not hesitate to
phone my direct line at (305) 377-6220.

SIZE OF PROPERTY:
Parcel 1 : Approximately .51 acres
Parcel 2: Approximately 5.39 acres
DESCRIPTION IBACKGROUND
I. Parcel 1
Parcel 1 to this application is a .51 acre upland parcel at the northeast corner of NE 34
Avenue and North Country Club Drive. It has been used as a private park for many
years. The site is a grassed area with trees, a bench, a flag pole, pet waste facilities
and two "George Berlin Park" signs.
Upon enactment of the City's Land Development Regulations in July of 1999, this
parcel of land was zoned CF, Community Facilities District, to recognize its past and
current use as a private park. The future land use designation of the parcel is Medium-
High Density Residential.
The land owner had applied to the City Commission for rezoning of this parcel in May of
2004 from CF, Community Facilities District, to RMF4, Multifamily High Density
Residential District. That request was denied by the City Commission because it did
not meet the standards for review of amendments to the Official Zoning Map as set out
in Section 31-77(f) of the City Code. In the staff report prepared for City Commission's
consideration in May of 2004, City staff stated that it would support a reduced intensity
of residential development on this site and suggested an RS2 zoning category which
would allow the following uses:
. One-family detached dwelling
· Publicly owned recreation buildings and facilities, playgrounds, playfields and
parks
· Uses accessory to any of the above uses when located on the same plot
. Zero lot line dwelling units
The rezoning request is to change the zoning designation of this parcel from CF,
Community Facilities District, to RS2, Residential Single Family District. The owner is
proposing five single family, zero lot line dwellings. The City's Traffic Consultant had
advised as part of the 2004 report that traffic associated with five single family dwellings
would not be expected to have an adverse impact on traffic patterns or congestion.
II. Parcel 2
Parcel 2 to this application is comprised of two parcels of submerged land lying south of
NE 207 Street, east of NE 34 Avenue and north of the Ensenada and EI Dorado
3
condominium developments. The two parcels measure approximately 5.39 acres.
The current zoning of these parcels according to the City's Land Development
Regulations is RMF4, Multifamily High Density Residential District. The future land use
designation of these parcels is "water".
The land owner had applied to the City for administrative site plan approval for
development of the most easterly parcel in December of 2004. The site plan proposed
a 12 story, 148 unit residential condominium building on pilings in the canal. City staff
had requested that the applicant address two threshold issues prior to continuing site
plan review discussions. Addressing those issues was necessary for an amendment to
the City's Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map and a plat restriction on use of
the canal. The applicant appealed this administrative decision by staff. The appeal
was filed on January 21, 2005, heard at the June 7, 2005 meeting of the City
Commission, deferred at the request of the applicant at the June 7 meeting to the first
meeting in September, 2005 and further deferred at the request of the applicant for an
additional period of not less than 90 days from August 18, 2005.
The rezoning request is to change the zoning designation of the two canal parcels from
RMF4, Multifamily High Density Residential District, to CNS, Conservation District. The
proposed CNS, Conservation District, zoning designation would allow the following
uses:
· Passive outdoor recreational uses such as wildlife sanctuaries and feeding
stations, nature centers and trails, outdoor research stations and walkways
· Fishing, boating and camping facilities
· Structures used for flood control, drainage and water storage
. Wetlands
. Uses which do not impair the natural environment or disturb the natural
ecosystem of the area and which are not in conflict with applicable water
management and wildlife protection policies of local, state and federal agencies
. Waterways
The owner proposes to construct five boat slips and associated docks which will be for
accessory use only to the five single family homes proposed on Parcel 1 of this report.
These boat slips and docks will require approval of a Class I permit from Miami-Dade
County Department of Environmental along with the approval of the City and other
governmental agencies. As part of the Settlement Agreement, staff recommends that
the rezoning ordinance provide that the rezoning of the canal parcels shall not be
effective unless and until the owner receives the required governmental approvals for
the five boat slips and docks.
These two rezoning applications have been filed by the City as applicant pursuant to a
Settlement Agreement between the owners and the City; however, each application
remains subject to the same standards for review of amendments to the Official Zoning
Map which the City Commission would apply to any rezoning application. Those
4
standards of review are contained in Section 31-77(f) of the City Code and are analyzed
in the following sections of this report.

County School Board in accordance with the Interlocal Agreement entered into between
the City and the Board in February of 2003. The Interlocal Agreement provides that if
the application will generate new students, the School Board must first advise what
options it has identified to meet the anticipated demand and, then, if the affected
schools are at more than 115% capacity, the School Board will ask the owner and the
City to meet with it in a collaboration meeting to discuss additional options to relieve
overcrowding.
The School Board has advised by electronic mail message that it has determined that
this application does not meet the review threshold as it will not generate additional
school children.

homes proposed on the upland parcel. No parking is provided or required for
accessory uses, therefore, the proposed change will have no impact on traffic
patterns or congestion.
7. Whether or not the proposed change would adversely impact population density
such that the demand for water, sewers, streets, recreational areas and facilities,
and other public facilities and services would be adversely affected.
The proposed boating facilities will be used as accessory use only to the five single
family homes proposed on the upland parcel. If the parcel was developed for other
permitted uses in the CNS district, those uses would not result in any increase in
population. Therefore, the proposed change would not adversely impact population
density such that the demand for water, sewers, streets, recreational areas and
facilities and other public facilities and services would be adversely affected.
B. Whether or not the proposed change would have an adverse environmental impact
on the vicinity.
The proposed change will not have an adverse environmental impact on the vicinity.
Use of the parcel for any permitted use in the district will be subject to City and
County DERM review and approval.
9. Whether or not the proposed change would adversely affect the health, safety, and
welfare of the neighborhood or the City as a whole.
The proposed change will not adversely affect the health, safety, and welfare of the
neighborhood or the City as a whole.
School Impacts - The proposed uses in the CNS district will not result in an increase
in population, therefore, there will be no effect on school capacity due to this proposed
change.
Conclusion. An evaluation of the standards of review for amendment to the Official
Zoning Map set out in Section 31-77(f) of the City Code shows that the applications to
9
change the zoning on these two parcels meet those standards. Staff therefore
recommends approval of the applications.

Dear Mr. Soroka:
This letter shall serve as the Letter of Intent for Application for Rezoning under
Case File No. 01-REZ-05.
Aventura-Ensenada Inc. is the owner of a .51 acre parcel of land at the northeast
corner of North Country Club Drive and NE 34 Avenue identified as "George
Berlin Park". This parcel was designated for high density residential uses by the
previous Miami-Dade County zoning map. That designation was changed in
1999 to CF (Community Facilities) District upon enactment of the City of
Aventura's Land Development Regulations.
Under the terms of an agreement between the owner and the City, the City has
agreed to act as applicant for the rezoning of this parcel from CF (Community
Facilities) District to RS2 (Residential Single Family) District. The RS2 zoning
designation will permit a maximum of five single family dwelling units on this
parcel. A conceptual site plan showing the proposed layout of the homes is
attached.

RE: AVENTURA ENSENADA, INC.
CITY OF AVENTURA
TINTER ASSOCIATES PROJECT NO. 01-2051R
Dear Ms. Carr:
This letter report should serve as a follow-up to our original correspondence of April 14, 2004 in
which several development scenarios were evaluated in response to a rezoning request for
property located along the north side of North Country Club Drive immediately east of N.E. 34th
Avenue within municipal limits of the City of Aventura. To assist your office at this time
additional analysis has been completed by this firm examining the effect on the area roadway
network of completing 5 single-family detached dwelling units on the subject property.
As before, trip generation characteristics were quantified through use of data available from the
Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) report Trip Generation, 7th Edition. According to ITE
Land Use Code (LUC) 210, 'Single Family Detached Housing' the 5 dwelling units should
produce 48 vehicular trips per day (24 entering and 24 exiting) with 4 occurring during the A.M.
peak hour (1 entering and 3 exiting) and 5 occurring during the P.M. peak hour (3 entering and
2 exiting). These peak hour volumes have been incorporated into an intersection summation
worksheet that includes existing tuming movement count data as collected by this firm and used
in our April 2004 analysis. Table A is attached for your use.
An analysis of daily conditions along North Country Club Drive, a four-lane divided facility, was
performed for the single-family development scenario. According to a 24-hour machine count
conducted along North Country Club Drive on Tuesday March 16th, 2004 North Country Club
Drive processes 14,941 vehicles per day. A comparison of this volume to appropriate
generalized maximum Level of Service volume thresholds developed by the Florida Department
of Transportation in the most recent edition of Quality/Level of Service Handbook (21,700
vehicles per day) shows that North Country Club Drive currently operates within acceptable
parameters and should continue to do so with the addition of traffic (48 vehicles per day) from
the proposed 5 single family dwelling units.
Exhibit #6
01-REZ-05 & 02-REZ-05
City of Aventura
September 15, 2005
Page 2
Similarly, the signalized intersection capacity analysis completed for existing and future peak
hour conditions at the intersection of North Country Club Drive and N.E. 34th Avenue shows the
intersection currently operates at acceptable Level of Service (LOS) 'C' and should continue to
operate at this level of service with addition of peak hour traffic volumes from the proposed
single famiiy homes. A comparison of vehicular delay shows no measurable impact during the
A.M. peak hour and a tenth of a second increase during the P.M. peak hour. Peak hour
intersection analysis worksheets are attached for your use. In summary, the effect of
developing the subject property as proposed should have an insignificant impact on the area
roadway network as shown herein.
I trust the information contained herein will assist in your review of the proposed residential
development. Of course, should you have questions regarding the issues discussed herein,
please do not hesitate to contact me directly.
Very truly yours,
O.~~I~

CITY OF AVENTURA
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT
MEMORANDUM
TO: City Commission
FROM: Eric M. Soroka, IC
City Manager
BY: Joanne Carr, AIC
Planning Director
DATE: October 12, 2005
SUBJECT: Resolution Adopting the 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report of the
City's Comprehensive Plan and Approving Transmittal to the South
Florida Regional Planning Council for Purposes of Sufficiency Review
(02-CPA-05)
November 1, 2005 City Commission Meeting Agenda Item --iJ}-
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Commission adopt the 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal
Report (EAR) attached to this report and approve transmittal of the document to the
South Florida Regional Planning Council for a sufficiency review in accordance with
Section 163.3191 of the Florida Statutes.
BACKGROUND/HISTORY
On July 26, 2005, the City Commission adopted Resolution No. 2005-37 which
recommended the transmittal of the draft Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR) of the
City's Comprehensive Plan for review and comment and requested that the Florida
Department of Community Affairs delegate review of the EAR to the South Florida
Regional Planning Council.
The draft EAR was sent for preliminary comment by all reviewing agencies. Those
comments were received from the South Florida Regional Planning Council by letter
dated September 1, 2005, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 1.
The EAR has now been revised to address all preliminary comments made. The
following is a summary of those changes.

Revision Made: The draft EAR used the accepted data for affordable housing demand
but added that population growth in that data is based on straight line growth and did
not reflect the local condition of future build out of the City. This section has been
revised to acknowledge that the study data is the most accurate and best available with
the caveat that the population projection for 2010 is the best indicator of affordable
housing needs in the City.
Pages 36 & 217
Not a comment, new information received
Revision Made: The "Existing Condition" of the Emergency Management issue and the
section on Consistency with Growth Management Laws have been revised to include a
discussion of a section of the City that lies in the Coastal High Hazard Area. This
section is comprised of the two islands in Dumfounding Bay.
Page 52
Staff comment requiring revision
Revision Made: Recommendation II.C.2 added to Policy 3.1 of our Future Land Use
Element requiring that all development orders maintain the hurricane evacuation
clearance time of 12 hours or less. This addition has been deleted. Only development
orders that relate to comprehensive plan amendments from non-residential to
residential categories are evaluated for clearance time. All land designated residential
in our original Future Land Use Map was included in the calculation of clearance time,
therefore, only a change in land use designation that increases population requires a
new calculation.

Revision Made: New growth management legislation relating to Transportation
Concurrency Exception Areas was passed this summer. Details of the new
requirements including the annual evaluation report and co-ordination with Florida
Department of Transportation are added to this issue discussion and to the
recommendation for the element. Recommendations to the Transportation Element are
revised accordingly.

Staff comment requiring revision
Revision Made: Recommendation II.D.1 added a new objective to the Transportation
Element stating that the City shall review and amend its Land Development Regulations
in order to ensure that new development and redevelopment does not further degrade
transportation levels of service within the City and enhances mobility options for existing
2

~-'--"""---~'--"~----"""--"'-"""""'-"""-"--'-""-' '-'--~-"'
and future residents. As drafted, this requirement would leave all development orders
subject to challenge since any development could potentially be defined as degrading
the transportation levels of service. The recommendation has been redrafted to read
that all new development shall enhance mobility options for existing and future
residents and all redevelopment shall not degrade transportation levels of service. This
redrafted clause will support the proposed amendments to our Land Development
Regulations.
Pages 74, 76, 88, 89, 117, 175 & 222 Page 2 of SFRPC Advisory Report
Revision Made: The Florida Department of State, Division of Historical Resources has
requested that the City conduct a cultural resource assessment survey to locate any
resources in the City. Our Quality of Life issue discussion has been amended to
include a new statement in our Future Land Use Element objective that the City will
complete this survey in conjunction with the Miami-Dade County Office of Historic
Preservation and the Florida Department of State. A recommendation added to state
that this study will be conducted prior to 2010.
Pages 126, 229
Page 4 of SFRPC Advisory Report
Revision Made: The Florida Department of Environmental Protection has requested
that our current Infrastructure Element policy that prohibits septic systems in unsuitable
soil and encourages that septic systems be avoided, be revised to provide that the City
study options for connection of existing septic systems to the public sanitary sewer
system. This revision has been made.
Pages 211-216,228,231,233
Appendices C, D, E & F
Pages 3 & 4 of SFRPC Advisory Report
Revision Made: The South Florida Regional Planning Council requested an analysis
rather than a statement of consistency of our Plan with the State Comprehensive Plan,
Rule 9J-5 of the Florida Administrative Code, Chapter 163 of the Florida Statutes and
the Strategic Regional Policy Plan. Those detailed analysis has been included along
with revised Appendices and a new recommendation that the City shall support the
efforts of federal, State, regional and local agencies to implement the policies, goals
and objectives of those plans, will co-ordinate on Water Supply Workplans with our
providers, will annually adopt our Five Year Capital Improvement Program into the
Comprehensive Plan, will co-ordinate with the School Board to include a Public School
Element in our Plan in accordance with law and will co-ordinate, as appropriate, with
the South Florida Regional Planning Council in the development and implementation of
the Regional Housing Plan. Recommendations to this effect are added to our Housing
and Intergovernmental Co-ordination Element.

SUFFICIENCY REVIEW AND EAR BASED AMENDMENTS
Once the Evaluation and Appraisal Report is adopted by the City Commission, it will be
transmitted to the South Florida Regional Planning Council with the City's request that it
issue a Notice of I ntent to find the Report sufficient. If the reviewing agencies find that
all issues in the Advisory Letter of September 1, 2005 have been satisfactorily
addressed, the Notice will published in a local newspaper. We will then begin to
prepare the recommendations of the Evaluation and Appraisal Report as EAR based
amendments and adopt them into our Comprehensive Plan. These amendments are
scheduled for transmittal hearing in April, 2006 and adoption hearings in June and July,
2006.

City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
I. INTRODUCTION AND COMMUNITY OVERVIEW
The City of Aventura's Comprehensive Plan (Plan) is its blueprint for existing and future
development. The Plan's goals, objectives and policies reflect the City's vision for its
future, and for how it will meet the needs of existing and future residents, visitors and
businesses.
The Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR) is a State-mandated update of the Plan. In
order to be effective, the Plan must be a living document, one with the flexibility to adapt
to changing conditions and needs. Ahhough there are other opportunities to periodically
revise the Plan, these revisions often occur as the resuh of outside development
applications. In the daily hustle, it is unlikely that the City has an opportunity to step back
and take a holistic look at how well the Plan is working, and how it might be refined to
address community-specific issues and challenges. The EAR provides this opportunity.
The City of Aventura, the City of Excellence, was incorporated in November 1995, making
it one of Miami-Dade County's newest municipalities. Nonetheless, the City traces it roots
back more than thirty-five years, when developer Don Soffer and Turnberry Associates
established Turnberry Isles, a 785-acre master planned community. Turnberry Isles served
as the catalyst for the development of other high quality residential communities in the
area, as well as a strong commercial and office base. The City now boasts a diversified
mix of single and muhi-fumily residential, commercial, office, industrial and recreational
uses, as well as Aventura Mall, a regional activity center. Its diversified land use base,
high quality of life, and strategic location on the intracoastal waterway between Miami and
Ft. Lauderdale have made Aventura one of the region's most desirable locations for
residents and businesses. As a result, a recent study by the Wall Street Journal indicates
that the highest real estate appreciation in 2004 in the southeastern United States occurred
in zip code 33180, which includes the City of Aventura. Specifically, the median home
sales price in the City in 2004 was $445,500, an increase of 23.6 percent from 2003 and
112.5 percent from 1999.'
With a 2000 population of 25,267, Aventura is the eighth most populous municipality in
Miami-Dade County. Ahhough it was not incorporated until 1995, between 1990 and
2000, the City's population increased from 15,375 to 25,267, a 67 percent increase. The
cities of Hialeah Gardens and Medley are the only municipalities in Miami-Dade County
that grew at a faster rate during that period. By 2010, the City's population is anticipated to
increase to 32,925, an increase of 30 percent since 2000. Based on projections prepared by
the University of Florida, by 2015, it is projected that its population will increase to 37,307
(48% above the 2000 Census~, and by 2025, it is projected that it will increase to 46,329
(83% above the 2000 Census). It should be noted, however, that these estimates are based
on historic and current population figures and growth trends, and do not reflect local
conditions. The City is rapidly approaching build-out, and its future development potential
and population growth is limited by the scarcity of vacant and developable land. For these

City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
reasons, the City estimates that its population will cap out at around 32,925, the year 2010
population estimate.
The City of A ventura has a number of other demographic characteristics that make it
unique. In 2000, 35.2 percent of its population was 65 or older, the second highest
percentage in Miami-Dade County. Despite this fact, recent trends in the City reflect an
increasing number of younger households and families. In 2000, the median family
income in the City was $4],092, the seventh highest among the County's 32
municipalities.3
The City of Aventura has a land area of approximately 3.2 square miles bounded by:
Broward County and the City of Hallandale Beach to the north; Golden Beach and Sunny
Isles across Dumfounding Bay and the ]ntracoastal Waterway to the east; North Miami
Beach to the south, and; unincorporated Miami-Dade County to the west (Figure 1.1.).
There have been no changes in the City's land area since it was incorporated in 1995.

City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
II. MAJOR ISSUES
In 1998, the State of Florida revised the statutory requirements for the EAR to allow local
governments to base their analysis on the key local issues that they are facing. In order to
comply with these requirements, and in recognition ofthe complicated and diverse range of
planning issues that the City of A ventura is currently facing, the City initiated its EAR
process with a public workshop on December 16, 2004, and conducted an interagency
scoping meeting with members of State, regional and County agencies and representatives
of adjacent municipalities on December 20, 2004. A Local Planning Agency Workshop
was conducted on April 25, 2005. This process is also detailed in the Public Participation
Summary section ofthis report.
Based on input received via this process, the City of Aventura identified six major issues
for inclusion in the EAR. On January 14, 2005 the City provided the Florida Department
of Community Affairs (DCA) with a request for a Letter of Understanding regarding these
issues, and the City's proposed Scope of Work (Appendix A). On February 2, 2005, DCA
provided the City with a Leller of Understanding agreeing to the proposed issues and
Scope. The six major issues are as follows:
Issue 1.
Development and Redevelopment
The City of A ventura is substantially developed. Nonetheless, development remains a
major issue due to regional growth pressures, initiatives to redirect development to
established urban areas, and the need to develop and/or reexamine plans for specific areas
(i.e. Town Center, the Hospital District).
Issue 2.
Housing
Increased property values and costs are making housing in the City prohibitive to many
households. The availability of housing that is affordable and appropriate for existing and
future households of all income levels is therefore a major issue. Specific concerns include
the availability of housing to accommodate employees of existing and future businesses,
the diminishing rental housing stock that is resulting from condominium conversions, and
barriers to homeownership.
Issue 3.
Emergeney Management
A ventura is a coastal community, and emergency management and hurricane preparedness
are on-going concerns. Specific issues include the impacts of development and
redevelopment on emergency management efforts, the ability of the transportation system
to handle evacuation needs, and coordination with other jurisdictions. Terrorism and
homeland security is a major important concern, particularly with regards to regional
activity centers such as the A ventura Mall.
4
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
Issue 4.
Trausportation
As a densely developed urban center, the City experiences significant traffic congestion.
The City's existing and future residents need better mobility options through a variety of
transportation modes (mass transit, automobile, water taxis, boats, bicycles, pedestrian
facilities). Transportation problems (congestion, traffic noise, signalization and signage
issues, connectivity and negative impacts on neighborhoods) need to be addressed.
Issue 5.
Quality of Life
Due to on-going development pressures and competing needs, the City is challenged to
maintain and improve the high quality of life of existing and future residents, businesses,
and visitors through the provision of services such as parks, public safety, public facilities,
schools and pedestrian facilities.
Issue 6.
Intergovernmental Coordination
In the afore-mentioned issue scoping phase, intergovernmental coordination was identified
as a key issue to be addressed in the EAR. Specific concerns regarding intergovernmental
coordination pertained to the impacts of development in adjacent jurisdictions, and
coordination with other governmental agencies in the provision of services and facilities
that impact the City's quality of life (i.e. public schools). In developing this report, it
became evident that these issues are fully and appropriately addressed in the discussion and
analysis of Issue 1, "Development and Redevelopment", and Issue 5, "Quality of Life".
Therefore, intergovernmental coordination is not addressed as a separate issue in this
Report.

City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
II.A. Development and Redevelopment
1. Issue Description and Analysis
The City of Aventura faces a number of challenges relating to development and
redevelopment. The City was approximately 95 percent developed upon its incorporation
in 1995, and a number of projects previously approved in the County but not yet developed
have vested rights. There have been growing concerns about the intensity of development
and overbuilding in the City, and the impacts of this development on quality of life. In
particular, the City faces heavy traffic congestion, which is raising concerns about
emergency management and the public heahh, safety and welfare. In addition,
compatibility of new development and redevelopment with existing development, building
heights, and maintaining the quality of the buih environment were all cited as concerns by
City officials and residents during the EAR-scoping process, and in other City public
participation forums. In response to these concerns, the City has enacted a temporary
moratorium on development until the EAR is completed. Key issues cited in the adopted
moratorium ordinance were traffic concurrency, the Town Center land use designation,
redevelopment guidelines, building heights, and emergency management. Projects which
have vested rights and/or site plan approvals, however, are exempted from this moratorium.
The Comprehensive Plan and land development regulations must include provisions to
adequately preserve and enhance the City's quality of life and to protect its existing
development and neighborhoods, while remaining cognizant of economic development
needs and property rights. The City's land development regulations include detailed
requirements to regulate development in the City, while the Comprehensive Plan contains
more general standards in the interpretive text for its Future Land Use categories. The
intent ofthese standards is to ensure that new development and redevelopment is consistent
with existing development in the City, and does not unduly diminish quality of life. While
a detailed review and rewrite ofthe land development regulations is not within the purview
of the EAR, strategies to ensure protection of existing development from adverse impacts
caused by new development and redevelopment may be considered and adopted into the
Comprehensive Plan.

a. Existing Development
The City of Aventura is substantially built-out. Table ILA.I. details the City's existing
land uses in 2005. As can be seen, in 2005 there were 523.89 acres of residential uses,
319.97 acres of commercial uses, 2.04 acres of industrial uses, 8.81 acres of community
facilities, 257.07 acres of recreational lands, 284.87 acres in utilities and rights-of-ways,
104.5 acres of vacant land, and 531.61 acres of water in the City. The most significant
change in existing land use in the City since 1995 is the transition of approximately 41.53
of industrial land to residential uses. This change is largely attributable to the ongoing
conversion ofNE 188 Street between NE 29 Avenue and the Intracoastal Waterway from
marine construction and repair operations to residential uses.

b. Future Land Use
The City's Future Land Use Plan Map (Figure H.A.I) is intended to implement the
Comprehensive Plan's Land Use Goal of providing "the best possible distribution of land
use and services to meet the physical, social, cultural and economic needs of the present
and future populations of the City". The Future Land Use Plan Map reflects the City's
plans for how it should develop and redevelop in the planning period. The Comprehensive
Plan has adopted the following Future Land Use categories:
. Low Density Residential, which allows a residential density of up to six dwelling
units per gross acre;
. Low-Medium Density Residential, which allows a residential density of between
six and 13 units per gross acre;
. Medium Density Residential which allows a residential density of 13 to 25 units
per gross acre;
. Medium-High Density Residential, which allows a residential density of between
25 and 60 units per gross acre;
. Industrial and Office, which provides for marine industries, marine manufacturing
operations, marine warehouses, marine showrooms, mini-warehouses, office
buildings, office buildings, hospitals and medical buildings, and similar uses with a
maximum floor area ratio (total building square footage (excluding parking
structures) divided by the net area ofthe parcel) of2.0;
· Business and Office, intended to accommodate the full range of sales and service
activities, including retail, wholesale, personal and professional services,
commercial and professional offices, hotels, motels, hospitals, medical buildings,
nursing homes, entertainment and cultural facilities, amusements and commercial
recreation establishments with a maximum floor area ratio of2.0, and;
· Town Center, defined as future hubs of activity intended to be moderate to high-
intensity design unified areas containing a mixture of uses integrated horizontally
and vertically, and developed in accordance with adopted thematic plans. Within
Town Centers, a maximum floor area ratio of 2.0 and a maximum residential
density of25 dwelling units per gross acre shall be allowed.

As can be seen on Tables I1.A.1 and I1.A.2, a significant portion (531.61 acres, 26 percent)
of the City of Aventura is designated as Water on the Future Land Use Map. City staff has
previously determined that the Water land use designation is a passive use and not the site
of potential development, consistent with Section 24-48.24 of Chapter 24, titled
"Environmental Protection..." of the Miami-Dade County Code of Ordinances. In order to
clarify and confirm City staff's previous and consistent determination, interpretative text
addressing the water designation on the Future Land Use Map needs to be incorporated into
the Comprehensive Plan.

d. Vacant Land and Vested Rights
Figure n.AA. and Table II.AA. identifY the location and status of the 104.5 acres of vacant
land in the City. Because the remainder ofthe City is already developed, it is anticipated
that most of the future development and redevelopment in the City will occur on these
parcels.

As noted earlier, the City has enacted a development moratorium until the EAR is
completed in order to ensure that mechanisms are in place to protect quality of life and
mitigate negative impacts that might be associated with such development and
redevelopment. The moratorium is limited to the area east of Biscayne Boulevard, and
excludes parcels that have obtained vested rights determinations, development agreements,
and/or site plan approvals. These exceptions are in recognition of the property rights of
owners and developers who have invested a significant amount of time and resources in
order to obtain development approvals, and are necessary in order to ensure that the
moratorium ordinance is defensible. Many of the parcels that have obtained vested rights
did so based upon development approvals that were granted prior to the formation of the
City on 1995, and were granted vested rights pursuant to Section 31-3(b) of the City's
Code ofOrdinances.7 As demonstrated on Table n.AA., 59.3 (43%) of the vacant acres in
the City would not be impacted by the moratorium.
Approximately 1,571 residential units, 344,000 s.E of office space and a 104 acre retail
complex are currently in the pipeline and will likely be built within the planning period.
According to the 2000 Census, the average household size in the City of Aventura is 1.79
persons per household9. It is therefore estimated that the City's population might increase
by 2,812 new residents (11%) as a result ofthese projects. It is important to note, however,
that many of these units are expected to be purchased by investors, seasonal residents or
residents who already live in the City, which would lower the overall impact on the City's
populat ion.

City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
Several development applications in process in the City are impacted by the moratorium. If
these projects move forward to completion, it is estimated that the City's population might
increase by an additional 838 households. Again, many of these units, if built, might be
purchased by investors, seasonal residents or residents who already live in the City, which
would lower the overall impact on the City's population.
As can be seen on Figure II.A.3., 57 acres in the City are vacant, but do not have
applications on file. In order to determine the potential development on these parcels, this
map was compared with the City's Future Land Use Plan Map (Figure II.A.!) and Zoning
Map. This review indicates that all vacant parcels for which no applications have been
received are designated Business and Office on the Future Land Use Plan Map, and are
zoned either B-2 (Community Business District), MO (Medical Office District), or OP
(Office Park). Unless the designation of these parcels is changed, their development
should not impact the City's residential population; however, it is estimated that their
maximum build out under the existing Future Land Use designation could result in
3,972,672 s.t: of non-residential space. Again, it should be noted that these estimates are
based solely on the Future Land Use Plan Map, the acreage contained in each land use
category, and the maximum intensity allowed per Future Land Use category in the adopted
Comprehensive Plan, reduced by 20 percent to account for the difference between gross
and net acres. Parcel size, existing development, site-specific development constraints, and
other development requirements such as parking, open space, setbacks, and rights-of-way
would significantly reduce the ultimate maximum development and redevelopment
capacity. Moreover, many parcels are zoned at less than the maximum intensity that their
Future Land Use designation allows, and would have to be rezoned to achieve their
maximum development or redevelopment potential.

City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
e. Redevelopment NeedslInitiatives
There are several areas of the City of Aventura that demonstrate unique development and
redevelopment needs, and/or that have been the focus of specific area planning efforts. In
2001, consultants for the City evaluated the potential for the creation ofa new Town Center
in the City. The subject area for this Study is bounded by: NE 191 Street and the William
Lehman Causeway to the north; Biscayne Boulevard to the west; NE 187 Street, NE 185
Street, and a finger canal to the south, and; County Club Drive and Dumfounding Bay to
the east. Existing development in this area includes: the Loehmann's Plaza shopping mall;
the former concentration of boat construction and repair operations along NE 188 Street
that is transitioning into residential uses, and; other commercial and office uses (Figure
II.AA.). The Town Center Study evaluated several alternative development and
redevelopment proposals for the area with the goal of recommending a plan that includes:
an appropriate mix of residential, retail, office and commercial uses in close proximity; a
well-developed system for multi-modal transportation access and circulation (pedestrian,
bicycle, automobile and transit); civic buildings and spaces, and; a cohesive design.1o The
City has designated a significant portion of the Study Area "Town Center" on the Future
Land Use Plan Map, and has created the TC-I and TC-2 zoning districts to implement this
land use.
The Comprehensive Plan's interpretive text for Town Centers states that they are "intended
to be moderate- to high-intensity design-unified areas which will contain a mixture of
different urban functions integrated both horizontally and vertically. Town Centers shall be
characterized by physical cohesiveness, direct accessibility by mass transit service, and a
high quality urban design. The development of each Town Center will be managed
through the creation of a thematic plan, which shall outline its major characteristics and
specifY the design and regulatory tools necessary to achieve those characteristics.,,11
Although the City of Aventura has made significant progress in implementing its Town
Center designation through the designation of the Study Area "Town Center" on the Future
Land Use Plan Map, creation and implementation of the Town Center zoning districts,
establishment of the internal shuttle bus transit system, and other initiatives, the area's
redevelopment into a true town center is in the preliminary stages, and the ultimate form it
will take remains subject to debate. For example, questions remain about whether the
Town Center should serve as a regional activity center, or should cater primarily to
residents of the City through a concentration of neighborhood-oriented retail or services.
Due to the location of several already established regional activity centers within (Aventura
Mall) or proximate (Gulfstream Park) to the City of Aventura, the Town Center's
development as a downtown that primarily serves City residents might be more
appropriate.
The Hospital District comprises the area around A ventura Hospital and bounded by the
FEC Corridor to the west, Biscayne Boulevard to the east, and the Broward County
line/City Limits to the north (Figure II.A.5). The area currently consists of A ventura
10 Aventura Town Center Study Draft Plan, Wallace Roberts & Todd LLC, January 22,2001
II City of Aventura Adopted Comprehensive Plan
16
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
Hospital and medical office developments of differing sizes and intensities, fragmented
single family development that demonstrates some blighted conditions both north and south
of the Hospital, and commercial out parcels with Biscayne Boulevard frontage. On April
21, 2003, consultants for the City submitted a conceptual urban development framework
for the District. The report submitted by the consultant identifies a number of
underutilized parcels in the district, and identifies potential improvements, including:
streetscape improvements; potential new streets, street expansions, and street closures, and;
redevelopment opportunities. The report recommends that design guidelines be
considered for the Hospital District in order to enhance the area's function as a cohesive
district of medical offices and other compatible uses.12
The City has made progress in the implementation of the Hospital District through
designation of the entire area Business and Office on the Future Land Use Plan Map, the
development of both site development and urban design standards for the southern portion
of the District and zoning the area MO (Medical Office). As noted in the April 21, 2003
Conceptual Urban Development Framework - Aventura Medical Office District, however,
several factors have impeded the redevelopment of the area, particularly in the single
family areas. The Medical Office zoning district requires a minimum lot size of 1.5 acres,
and the fragmented parcel and ownership characteristics ofthe single family area has made
assembling the land necessary to implement the designation difficult. Changes to the
development and lot size requirements in the MO District specific to the subject area, and
the provision of other incentives to foster the area's redevelopment, may be required in
order to implement the redevelopment goals.
Biscayne Boulevard is the City of A ventura's main north-south thoroughfure. The
Biscayne Boulevard corridor in the City is characterized by intensive commercial and
office development that largely predates the City's incorporation, including regional
activity centers such as the Aventura Mall. Loehmann's Plaza fronts Biscayne Boulevard
as well. Opportunities to further the achievement of cohesive design and development
patterns and economic development goals along the Biscayne Boulevard corridor may exist
through the redevelopment and other initiatives.
A review of Figures II.A.1. and II.A.2. indicates that the City's Biscayne Boulevard
frontage is designated Town Center or Business and Office on the Future Land Use Plan
Map, and zoned B-2, B-3, RMF-3, OP, or MO. Many of the afore-mentioned shopping
centers have B-2 zoning, which would allow their redevelopment at a higher intensity than
currently exists. Such redevelopment, however, might not be appropriate for all areas of
the corridor, which experiences significant traffic congestion and is primarily characterized
by lower-rise commercial establishments. Moreover, the Boulevard serves as a primary
gateway into the City, and links the Town Center, Aventura Mall, and the Hospital District.

f. Development and Redevelopment in Adjacent Areas
As noted in Chapter I, the city of Aventura is bounded by: Broward County and the City of
Hallandale Beach to the north; Golden Beach and Sunny Isles across Dumfounding Bay
and the Intracoastal Waterway to the east; North Miami Beach to the south, and;
unincorporated Miami-Dade County to the west (Figure 1.1.). Development and
redevelopment that is occurring in adjacent areas invariably impacts the quality of life in
Aventura, and vice versa. Impacts of development in adjacent cities on traffic congestion
and hurricane times evacuation are particular areas of concern, and are addressed in
Chapters I1.C. and 11.0.
Gulfstream Park is an existing 250-acre racetrack located in the City of Hallandale Beach
in Broward County, abutting the City of Aventura's northern boundary. Gulfstream Park is
currently the subject of a Development of Regional Impact (DRI) application for the
proposed development of a large-scale, mixed-use project on 85.7 acres currently used for
parking. The racetrack fucility would be retained. The proposed flexible development
program for this site includes 1.2 million s. f. of retail, 1,500 residential units, a 5,500 seat
movie theater, and 300,000 s.f. of office space." This Application for Development
Approval for the DRI is still in process. The City of Aventura has been diligent in
providing comments and input in the DRI process due to the potential impacts of this
proposed development.
The City of Sunny Isles Beach, located across the Intracoastal Waterway and Dumfounding
Bay to the east of the City, has experienced significant redevelopment in the past few years,
with low-rise beachfront motels being replaced by high-rise condominium and hotel
projects. This redevelopment has rapidly changed the complexion of Sunny Isles Beach,
and had implications for northeast Miami-Dade County as a whole, particularly in terms of
traffic and hurricane evacuation. William Lehman Causeway, one of the two the main
linkages between Sunny Isles Beach and the mainland, traverses the City of Aventura.
Efforts to continue to ensure coordinated planning with the City of Sunny Isles Beach,
particularly in terms of transportation and emergency management, are key to future
development and redevelopment of both cities.
The OJ us area of unincorporated Miami-Dade County is located west of the City of
A ventura. The area is currently characterized by low density residential neighborhoods
and commercial strip development along West Dixie Highway and Miami Gardens Drive.
The Ojus area demonstrates some redevelopment needs, particularly in the commercial
areas, and was the subject of a 200 I charrette conducted by the Miami-Dade Department of
Planning and Zoning. Charrette recommendations included multi-modal transportation
improvements, the development of urban design standards, increased code enforcement,
environmental restoration/protection, historic preservation, land use and zoning strategies,
and the provision of incentives for redevelopment.14

2. Social, Economic and Environmental Impacts
Section 163.3l91(2)(e), F.S., requires that the potential social, economic, and
environmental impacts of the identified major issues be addressed in the EAR. The
previous section of this report described specific impacts of the development and
redevelopment issue in detail.
In summary, major positive social impacts of development and redevelopment include: the
creation of stronger neighborhoods, which in turn strengthens the sense of community and
social fabric; opportunities to enhance the quality of life for existing and future residents
and visitors by providing increased opportunities for social interaction, reducing
automobile dependence, and providing better public space, and; the provision of additional
economic opportunities. Potential negative impacts include: reduced service levels and
congestion that might result from increasing density without expanding service capacity;
the encroachment of incompatible uses on existing communities that are essential to
healthy development, and; increased school overcrowding.
From an economic standpoint, the development and redevelopment issue has a number of
implications. Development and redevelopment increases the tax base, and therefore
increases the City's ability to provide services to existing and future residents. Moreover,
development and redevelopment attracts new residents and businesses to neighborhoods,
creating new jobs for existing residents. Nonetheless, increased development and
redevelopment requires the provision of additional and expanded public services and
infrastructure, with added public costs. Impact fees, concurrency requirements, and other
mechanisms should be in place to ensure that development assumes its fair share of these
costs.
From an environmental standpoint, redevelopment and infill development result in more
sustainable development patterns than suburban sprawl, and play an important role in
protecting the region's many environmental resources, including the Everglades and other
environmentally sensitive lands. Within the City, however, development and
redevelopment can diminish the level of open space, disrupt vistas and view corridors, and
have negative impacts on natural resources, including natural and man-made water bodies.
It is important to ensure that adequate open spaces are maintained and public spaces
provided in conjunction with development and redevelopment in the City, and that
potential negative impacts of such development and redevelopment are mitigated through
the use of best management practices and other strategies.

City of Aventura 2005 ~valuation and Appraisal Report
3. Comprehensive Plan Impacts and Recommendations
Section 163.3191 (2)(g), F.S., requires that the EAR evaluate the plan objectives within
each element as they relate to the major issues and identifY, where appropriate, unforeseen
or unanticipated changes in circumstances which have resulted in problems or opportunities
with respect to the major issues. Because of its broad nature, Issue l.A., "Development
and Redevelopment", impacts the Comprehensive Plan in its entirety. Specific
recommendations to amend the Comprehensive Plan to address the issue of development
and redevelopment are as follows.
a. Future Land Use Element
The following objectives and policies in the Future Land Use Element should be amended
as noted or added to address this issue:
Recommendation II.A.I. A number of the major issues facing the City, including
building heights, concerns over the intensity of development, and ensuring compatibility
between existing neighborhoods and new development and redevelopment, must be
addressed through the City's land development regulations, It is therefore recommended
that a new Objective and policies be added to the Future Land Use Element to state that by
2007, the City shall review and amend its land development regulations in order to provide
a cohesive blueprint for development and redevelopment in the City. The revised land
development regulations shall address strategies to:
· accommodate growth while maintaining neighborhood integrity;
. ensure appropriate height and site development requirements and design guidelines;
· ensure appropriate transitions and linkages between different neighborhoods and
uses;
. encourage more walkable neighborhoods;
· buffer neighborhoods and existing development from the encroachment of
incompatible uses;
. limit the intensity of future development and redevelopment in a manner that is
consistent with current development patterns, and that minimizes further negative
impacts to the City's infrastructure, traffic congestion, hurricane evacuation
clearance times, and quality of life, and;
· prevent redevelopment of a parcel in a manner that would significantly increase its
existing intensity or density, unless redevelopment of said parcel will implement
specific development and redevelopment goals that are or that might be established
for particular areas.
Recommendation II.A.2. Policy 1.1 defines the City's residential land categories. It is
recommended that Policy 1.1 be amended to the following:
· under the Medium Density land use category delete "authorizes apartment
buildings ranging" and replace with "allows a range in density". Also, add the
following to the end of the second sentence ", but may also include single family
detached, duplexes, triplexes and quadruplexes"
22
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
. under the Medium-High Density category delete "authorizes apartment buildings
ranging from" and replace with "allows a range in density". Add the following new
sentences: "The type of housing structure typically permitted in this category
includes low, medium and high-rise apartments, but may also include single family
detached, duplexes, triplexes, quadruplexes and townhouses. Additionally, the
height of buildings and attainment of densities approaching the maximum shall
also be contingent on the ability ofthe developer to ensure appropriate transitions
and buffers with the surrounding neighborhood, and to alleviate impacts that will
adversely impact service levels and quality of life."
Recommendation II.A.3. Policy 1.2 defines the City's non-residential land use
categories. It is recommended that Policy 1.2 be amended to:
. Add text to the Business and Office Category to state that the maximum intensity
allowable on a given site shall also be contingent on the ability of the developer to
ensure appropriate transitions and buffers with the surrounding neighborhood, and
to alleviate impacts that will adversely impact service levels of service and quality
of life;
· Add text to the Town Center Category to clariry that such centers are not intended
to be Regional Activity Centers, but are instead intended to primarily serve the
City's existing and future residents and businesses, and;
. Add a Water Category which specifies that areas designated Water provide
numerous benefits to the City of Aventura and are an important component of the
City's multi-modal transportation network, stormwater drainage infrastructure, and
natural and built environments. It should speciry that the use ofthese areas shall be
limited to recreational and commercial boating facilities (including water taxis and
ferries), the provision of open space and urban relief, recreation, waterways,
wetlands, flood control, stormwater drainage and storage, and natural resource
protection and enhancement, and comply with the requirements of Chapter 24,
"Environmental Protection...", of the Miami-Dade County Code of Ordinances. It
should further state that development in or above such areas in a manner that will
diminish these functions shall be prohibited, and that development and
redevelopment adjacent to these areas shall include provisions to enhance these
functions where appropriate.
Recommendation II.A.4. Policy 2.1 states that in planning and designing development
and redevelopment, the City shall enforce the guidelines contained in the Comprehensive
Plan's Urban Design Element. It is recommended that this Policy be revised to replace the
reference to "Urban Design Element" with ''redevelopment plans, the Redevelopment
Element, and land development regulations".
Recommendation II.A.S. Policy 2.4 addresses the designation of sites and use of
landscaping materials in public projects, an important consideration in development and
23
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
redevelopment. It is recommended that this Policy be amended to call for the use of native
landscaping materials where feasible and appropriate in public projects.
Recommendation II.A.6. Objective 3 states that decisions regarding the location,
extent, and intensity of future land use in A ventura will be based on environmental
conditions and the financial feasibility of providing services at levels that meet or exceed
adopted levels of service by 2005. It is recommended that this Policy be amended to
update the date to 2015, and to expand the text to also state that decisions regarding the
location, extent and future land use in A ventura will be based on compatibility with and the
minimization of adverse impacts on existing neighborhoods.

d. Redevelopment Element
The City of Aventura's Comprehensive Plan currently contains two optional elements: the
Economic Development Element and the Urban Design Element. The Economic
Development Element addresses strategies for improving and streamlining the development
approval process to further economic development goals. development of a unified
approach for marketing the City to businesses. and the establishment of Community
Redevelopment Area that includes Thunder Alley. the Hospital District. and the Biscayne
Boulevard corridor. The Urban Design Element contains the original concept plans for the
25
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
Town Center and Hospital District,15 and calls for the City to enact land development
regulations to implement these conceptual plans.
Recommendation IT.A.17. Due to the number of development and redevelopment issues
that the City is facing, and the fact that the concept plans for the Town Center and Hospital
District have changed, it is recommended that the Economic Development and Urban
Design elements be consolidated and expanded into a new Redevelopment Element that
addresses the following issues and initiatives:
By 2007, the City shall review and amend its land development regulations in order to
provide a cohesive blueprint for development and redevelopment in the City. The revised
land development regulations shall address strategies to:
. accommodate growth while maintaining neighborhood integrity;
. ensure appropriate height and site development requirements and design guidelines;
. ensure appropriate transitions and linkages between different neighborhoods and
uses;
. encourage more walkable neighborhoods;
· buffer neighborhoods and existing development from the encroachment of
incompatible uses;
· limit the intensity of future development and redevelopment in a manner that is
consistent with current development patterns, and that minimizes further negative
impacts to the City's infrastructure, traffic congestion, hurricane evacuation
clearance times, and quality of life, and;
· prevent redevelopment of a parcel in a manner that would significantly increase its
existing intensity or density, unless redevelopment of said parcel will implement
specific development and redevelopment goals that are or that might be established
for particular areas.
The City shall coordinate with the private sector and other agencies as appropriate, to
implement strategies to market the City of Aventura as a location for new businesses,
promote the retention and expansion of existing businesses, ensure an adequate supply
of non-residential land uses to address economic development goals, provide services
and employment opportunities to existing and future residents, and coordinate
economic development, development, and redevelopment goals;
By 2007, the City shall refine development/design guidelines through the land
development regulations for the Town Center that provides for its redevelopment as a
design-unified downtown that primarily serves City residents. The Town Center shall
be characterized by a mixture of different urban functions integrated horizontally and
vertically, multi-modal transportation access and circulation, and high quality urban
design;

II. B. HOUSING
1. Issue Description and Analysis
As noted in Chapter I., in 2004 the highest real estate appreciation in the southeastern
United States occurred in zip code 33180, which includes the City of A ventura.
Specifically, the median home sales price in the City in 2004 was $445,500, an increase of
23.6 percent from 2003 and 112.5 percent from 1999.16 While these increases are
reflective of the City's high quality of life and have positive implications for the City's tax
base and fiscal health, they are also making housing in the City prohibitive to many
households, including middle income households. The availability of housing that is
affordable and appropriate for existing and future households of all income levels is
therefore a major issue. Specific concerns include the availability of housing to
accommodate employees of existing and future businesses, the diminishing rental housing
stock that is resulting from condominium conversions, and barriers to homeownership.
"Housing cost burden", defined as the percent of a household's income that is used to pay
for housing costs, is frequently used as a measure for determining whether or not housing is
affordable. According to federal housing program guidelines and the University of
Florida's Shimberg Center for Affordable Housing (Shimberg Center), housing costs
should not exceed 30 percent of a household's income in order to be considered
affordable 17. For example, a family off our with a combined household income of$57,840
should pay no more than $17,352 in annual combined housing costs.
Federal guidelines define a very low income household as a household whose income is at
or below 50 percent of the median household income for the area, a low income household
as a household whose income is between 50 and 80 percent of the median for the area, and
a moderate income household as a household whose income is between 80 and 120 percent
ofthe median for the areal8. The median income varies in accordance with household size.
Table 11.B.1 identifies median household incomes by household size for Miami-Dade
County.

The University of Florida's Shimberg Center for Affordable Housing, under contract with
the State of Florida Department of Community Affairs, prepares an Affordable Housing
Needs Assessment (AHNA) for each municipality in the State in order to assist in the
development and evaluation of comprehensive plan housing elements. The AHNA
provides information about household size, income (as measured against the median),
ownership status, and other indicators. Table II.B.2 below summarizes the AHNA
information for the City of Aventura for the years 2002, 2005, 2010, 2015, and 2025.
Analysis of this data provides an indication of the current and projected demand for
housing. It should be noted, however, that these estimates are based on historic and
current population figures and growth trends, and do not reflect local conditions. The City
is rapidly approaching build-out, and its future development potential and population
growth is limited by the scarcity of vacant and developable land. For these reasons, the
City estimates that its population will cap out at around 32,925, the year 2010 population
estimate. Nonetheless, the City finds that the Shimberg Center analysis to be the most
accurate and best available data indicating affordable housing need in the City, with the
caveat that year 2010 information provides the best indication of affordable housing need
through the short and long-term planning horizons.

As can be seen on Table IIB.2., in 2005 there were a total of 15,317 households in
Aventura. A total of 4,566 (30%) of these households rented their homes, while 10,751
(70%) owned their homes. Among the households who rented their homes, 1,728 (37%)
were very low income, 850 (19%) were low income, and 853 (19%) were moderate
income. In total, 3,431 (75%) of the City's renter households were low and moderate
income in 2005. Among the households who owned their homes, 2,211 (21%) were very
low income, 1,531 (14%) were low income, and 1,825 (17%) were moderate income. In
tota~ 5,567 (52%) of the City's homeowner households were low and moderate income in
2005.
The Shimberg Center also projects the Affordable Housing Needs Assessment data for
2010,2015, and 2025. As can be seen on Table II.B.2., in 2010 it is projected that there
will be a total of 17,089 households in Aventura. A total of5,338 (31%) are projected to
rent their homes, while 11,752 (69%) are projected to own their homes. Among the
20 Affordable Housing Needs Assessment, Shim berg Center for Affordable Housing, 2005

households projected to rent their homes, it is estimated that 1,953 (37%) will be very low
income, 1,002 (19%) will be low income, and 1,023 (19%) will be moderate income. In
total, it is projected that 3,978 (75%) of the City's renter households will be low and
moderate income in 2015. Among the households projected to own their homes, it is
estimated that 2,238 (19%) will be very low income, 1,620 (14%) will be low income, and
1,991 (17%) will be moderate income. In total, it is projected that 5,849 (49%) of the
City's homeowner households will be low and moderate income in 2010.
In 2015 it is projected that there will be a total of 18,861 households in Aventura. A total
of6,I09 (32%) are projected to rent their homes, while 12,752 (68%) are projected to own
their homes. Among the households projected to rent their homes, it is estimated that 2,177
(36%) will be very low income, 1,153 (19%) will be low income, and 1,192 (20%) will be
moderate income. In total, it is projected that 4,522 (74%) of the City's renter households
will be low and moderate income in 2015. Among the households projected to own their
homes, it is estimated that 2,264 (18%) will be very low income, 1,709 (13%) will be low
income, and 2,157 (17%) will be moderate income. In total, it is projected that 6,130
(48%) of the City's homeowner households will be low and moderate income in 2015.
In 2025, the Shimberg Center projects that there will be a total of 22,952 households in
Aventura. A total of 7,704 (34%) are projected to rent their homes, while 15,248 (66%) are
projected to own their homes. Among the households projected to rent their homes, it is
estimated that 2,680 (35%) will be very low income, 1,452 (20%) will be low income, and
1,523 (20%) will be moderate income. In total, it is projected that 2,054 (73%) of the
City's renter households will be low and moderate income in 2025. Among the households
projected to own their homes, it is estimated that 2,838 (19%) will be very low income,
1,723 (11%) will be low income, and 2,589 (17%) will be moderate income. In total, it is
projected that 7,150 (47%) of the City's homeowner households will be low and moderate
income in 2005.
Based on the Shimberg Center's projected population figures and tenure characteristics, in
order to fully address housing demand in 2010, the City's housing inventory should
include: 1,953 rental units and 2,238 ownership units affordable to very low income
households; 1,002 rental units and 1,620 ownership units affordable to low income
households, and; 1,023 rental units and 1,991 ownership units affordable to moderate
income households. By 2015, the City's housing inventory should include: 2,177 rental
units and 2,264 ownership units affordable to very low income households; 1,153 rental
units and 1,709 ownership units affordable to low income households; 1,192 rental units
and 2,157 ownership units affordable to moderate income households; and 1,587 rental
units and 6,622 ownership units affordable to households who are of middle or upper
income levels. In order to fully address housing demand in 2025, the City's housing
inventory should include: 2,680 rental units and 2,838 ownership units affordable to very
low income households; 1,452 rental units and 1,723 ownership units affordable to low
income households; 1,523 rental units and 2,589 ownership units affordable to moderate
income households; and 2,049 rental units and 8,098 ownership units affordable to
households who are of middle or upper income levels.

City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
As noted earlier, however, the Shimberg Center's estimates are based on historic and
current population figures and growth trends, and do not reflect local conditions. The City
is rapidly approaching build-out, and its future development potential and population
growth is limited by the scarcity of vacant and developable land. For these reasons, the
City estimates that its population will cap out at around 32,925, the year 20 I 0 population
estimate. The City's demand for housing units in 2015 and 2025 is therefore estimated to
be closer to the 2010 figures than the 2015 and 2025 figures as reported on Table 11.8.2.
The condition of the existing housing stock is another component of the goal of providing
decent, safe, sanitary and affordable housing to the City's existing and future residents.
The Shimberg Center for Affordable Housing defines substandard units as those that have
one or more of the following characteristics: no heating fuel; incomplete kitchen and/or
plumbing, and/or overcrowded units. In addition, substandard units may have code
violations and/or structural issues. Addressing these conditions is an important component
of housing programs. According to the Shimberg Center, in 2000,530 units (3.8 %) used
no heating fuel; 585 units (4%) lacked complete kitchen facilities, and 83 units (.4%)
lacked complete plumbing facilities. An overcrowded unit is one in which there is more
than one person per room. In 2000, 66 (.3%) of the City's household resided in
overcrowded units. These figures do not necessarily reflect units with one or more code
violations and/or substandard conditions. A May 19,2005 windshield survey of the City's
neighborhoods indicates that a concentration of units needing repair exists in the single
family residential neighborhoods located west of Biscayne Boulevard in the Hospital
District. As noted in Chapter II.A., these areas are targeted for redevelopment with
medical offices.

2. Social, Economic and Environmental Impacts
Section 163.3191(2)(e), F.S., requires that the potential social, economic, and
environmental impacts ofthe identified major issues be addressed in the EAR. The social,
economic and environmental impacts ofIssue II.B., "Housing", are addressed as follows.
The provision of housing that is decent, safe, sanitary and affordable to all households has
numerous social, economic, and environmental benefits. The scarcity of housing
contributes to many social problems, including poverty, homelessness, displacement, and
foreclosures. Moreover, substandard and dilapidated housing negatively impacts the
quality of life of occupants and neighborhoods. Affordable housing reduces such problems
with the added social benefit of increased economic diversity.
From an economic standpoint, the availability of quality housing increases household
disposable income, which positively impacts local businesses and furthers job creation and
other economic development goals. Moreover, the availability of housing makes an area
more attractive for workers and employers, and can be a key factor in attracting new
business to the area. From an environmental standpoint, slum and blight conditions and a
scarcity of affordable housing negatively impacts public health and safety, and degrades the
quality and aesthetic beauty of the built and natural environment.

3. Comprehensive Plan Impacts and Recommendations
Section 163.3191 (2)(g), F.S., requires that the EAR evaluate the plan objectives within
each element as they relate to the major issues and identitY, where appropriate, unforeseen
or unanticipated changes in circumstances which have resuhed in problems or opportunities
with respect to the major issues. Issue LB., "Housing", impacts:
· Objectives I, 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, and 9 of the Future Land Use Element, and policies
thereunder, as they address residential land use categories, the protection of
residential neighborhoods, strategies to address existing and future residential
demand, and/or strategies to accommodate existing and future residents;
. The Housing Element in its entirety;
· Objective I of the Intergovernmental Coordination Element, and policies 1.7 and
1.8 thereunder, as they address coordination with other local governments to
identitY opportunities for affordable housing, and the need to coordinate funding
cycles for affordable housing programs.
Specific recommendations to amend the Comprehensive Plan to address the issue of
development and redevelopment are as follows.
a. Housing Element
Recommendation 11.8.1. Objective I and its policies address strategies to create and
preserve affordable housing for all existing and future City residents. It is recommended
that a new Policy be added under Objective I to state that the City shall support public and
private sector efforts to provide an adequate supply of housing units that are affordable to
households of all incomes in proportions that are reflective of the housing demand and
needs. It should further state that developers are encouraged to provide a variety of
housing types, including housing affordable to City residents of all income levels, in
residential projects and communities.
Recommendation 11.8.2. Objective 3 addresses the availability of sites for affordable
housing, and states that due to the scarcity ofland and high land values, affordable housing
units will be distributed. It is recommended that this Objective be amended to state that
"due to high and increasing property values and the scarcity of developable land, the City
will coordinate with the private sector in order to encourage the provision of a variety of
housing types, including housing affordable to City residents of all income levels, in
residential and Town Center communities throughout the City".
Recommendation 11.8.3. Policy 3.1 states that the land development regulations will
include appropriate criteria to allow diverse housing types. It is recommended that this
Policy be amended to add "including housing affordable to City residents of all income
levels" after "type".
34

b. Intergovernmental Coordination Element
Recommendation 11.8.4. Objective I addresses coordination with other local
governments to identifY opportunities for affordable housing. It is recommended that a
new Policy stating that the City shall incorporate the recommendations of the joint Florida
Department of Community Affairs/South Florida Regional Planning Council "Regional
Affordable Housing Strategy" in its Comprehensive Plan, as appropriate, after the final
recommendations are issued.

II.C. EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT
I. Issue Description and Analysis
a. Existing Conditions
As a substantially developed coastal community, emergency management and hurricane
preparedness are on-going concerns in the City of Aventura. Figure I1.C.\. identifies the
2003 hurricane evacuation zones in Miami-Dade County?2 Zone A, the Coastal High
Hazard Area, encompasses the County's Atlantic beaches and barrier islands, including the
cities of Miami Beach, SurfSide, Sunny Isles Beach, and Golden Beach. The City of
Aventura is not located within the Coastal High Hazard Area, with the exception of the
Island Estates area located adjacent to Williams Island on two islands extending into the
Intracoastal Waterway (see the portions of the City located in Zone A on Figure I1.C.)).
The westernmost island is currently developed with 22 single family estate homes. The
easternmost island is currently vacant, but has vested rights for 17 units per gross acre.
Both islands are designated Medium High Density Residential on the Comprehensive
Plan's Future Land Use Plan Map, and are zoned RS-2 (Residential Single Family). The
City shall not approve any development applications that would serve to increase density of
this development beyond what exists or is allowed by current zoning and/or vested rights.
The coastal high hazard area must be evacuated in the event of any hurricane, regardless of
storm category. The portions of Aventura (excepting Island Estates) that are east of US-I
(Biscayne Boulevard) are located in the Hurricane Vulnerability Zone (Zone B), which
must be evacuated in the event of hurricane of Category 2 strength or higher. This area
does not require evacuation in the event of a Category ) storm, although evacuation is
always recommended when a hurricane threatens South Florida.
As noted earlier, the City of A ventura's location in the Hurricane Vulnerability Zone
requires residents to evacuate in the event of a category 2 or stronger storm, except for the
residents of the Costal High Hazard Area who must evacuate in a Category I event,
although evacuation is encouraged during any major storm event. The ability of the City's
roadway system to allow evacuation in a safe and timely manner is integral to the function
of the emergency management system, and the health and safety of City residents. As the
City and its neighboring jurisdictions continue to develop and redevelop, increased
permanent, seasonal, and temporary populations must be evacuated. As is further
described in Chapter IJ.D., the City already fuces significant traffic congestion, which
inhibits the ability of residents and visitors to evacuate safely and efficiently. Moreover, it
must be noted that many residents of the Coastal High Hazard Area, and other surrounding
jurisdictions, may evacuate through the City of Aventura, which potentially increases
evacuation times for City residents. For example, the William Lehman Causeway, which
traverses the City of Aventura, is a major evacuation route for the City of Sunny Isles
Beach, which is currently undergoing significant development and redevelopment. For
these reasons, emergency management was cited as a key concern in the recently enacted
moratorium ordinance.

Dade County Department of Planning and Zoning, 2003

City of A ventura 200S Evaluation and Appraisal Report
There are three major evacuation routes out of the City of A ventura: Biscayne Blvd, aka
US I (North); Ives Dairy Road - N 203rd St. (West), and; Miami Gardens Drive - N 18Sth
St. (West). These evacuation routes are shown on Figure II.C.2. In addition, the City has
established traffic control points in order to facilitate evacuation. Established traffic
control points include: Biscayne Blvd. and 207 St.; Biscayne Blvd. and Aventura Blvd.;
Biscayne Blvd. and 191'1 St; Biscayne Blvd. and I 83'd St.; 29th Ave and 190th St.; 34th Ave
and Country Club Drive; Biscayne Blvd. and 203rd St; Biscayne Blvd. and Lehman
Causeway; Biscayne Blvd. and 18th St.; Dixie Highway and 21Sth St; 29th Place and
Aventura Blvd.; and 34th Ave and 20th St.
Clearance time is the time required to clear the roadway of all vehicles evacuating in
response to a hurricane situation. Clearance time begins when the fIrst evacuating vehicle
enters the road network. Clearance time includes the time required by evacuees to enter the
road network (referred to as mobilization time) and the time spent by evacuees to enter the
road network due to traffic congestion (referred to as queuing delay time). Clearance time
does not relate to the time anyone vehicle spends traveling on the road network and does
not include time needed for local officials to assemble and make a decision to evacuate.
Evacuation time is the combination of the clearance time and the pre-landfall hazards time.
In most cases, if not all, evacuations are called to a stop as soon as tropical storm force
winds (one of the many pre-landfall hazards) begin to make landfall. This decision is made
to not only protect the safety of those trying to evacuate but also because many of the
evacuation routes begin to close due to bridge closures or roadway flooding. Therefore,
clearance time is the amount of time necessary from the issuance of the evacuation order
until the last person gets to a place of safety. Evacuation time is the total time from when
the evacuation order is issued until the eye of the tropical system makes landfall. Table
III.C.1. below gives approximated clearance times for the City of A ventura based on the
most recently available data from the South Florida Regional Planning Council.

Source: South Florida Regional Hurricane Evacuation Study - April t996
If the comprehensive plan amendments approved by the City since 1998 are taken into
account the City's evacuation time, according to the South Florida Regional Planning
Council's model, is currently at 11.54 hours.
Policy 12.2 of the Comprehensive Plan's Future Land Use Element and Objective 9 of the
Coastal Management Element require that the City maintain hurricane evacuation clearance
times of 12 hours or less. As noted on Table III.C.I. above, the City is currently meeting
the 12 hour clearance time for all storms. The November calculations are higher due to the
number of seasonal residents living in these areas, As development and redevelopment
continues in the City and surrounding areas, clearance times will lengthen without
increased roadway capacity to address evacuation needs. The impacts of proposed
development and redevelopment on the City's hurricane evacuation clearance times are
monitored by the City in conjunction with the South Florida Regional Planning Council on
an on-going basis,
As noted in Chapter I1,A, I., development and redevelopment that is occurring in adjacent
areas invariably impacts the quality of life in A ventura, and vice versa. Impacts of
development in adjacent cities on hurricane evacuation times is a particular concern. A
complicating factor is that the hurricane evacuation clearance standards for many
surrounding jurisdictions, including those in the Coastal High Hazard Area, is up to 24
hours, which is inconsistent with Aventura's adopted 12 hour standard. This differential
provides these cities with greater development and redevelopment capacities than the City
38
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
of Aventura, and inhibits the City's ability to achieve its clearance standards due to
increased congestion on evacuation routes. Because hurricane evacuation and emergency
management planning is, by necessity, conducted on a regional basis, it is evident that the
City must utilize intergovernmental coordination and regional planning forums to address
these concerns, and to reevaluate the hurricane evacuation formulas.

b. Miami-Dade County Emergency Management System
The Miami-Dade County Emergency Management System (CEMS) is implemented by a
coordinated network that includes: County government agencies; municipalities; State and
federal agencies located in the County; private not-for-proflt agencies that have
membership in Miami-Dade County Volunteer Organizations Active in Disasters (VOAD),
and; business organizations which provide essential services in response/recovery
operations. This system is designed to ensure that adequate resources are provided to
jurisdictions whenever their own resources are inadequate to cope with a given situation.
When a "Local State of Emergency" is declared by Miami-Dade County, a network of the
Miami-Dade County Emergency Operations Center (EOC) and seven Divisional EOCs is
activated to ensure that all municipalities are represented in the network. If a small area of
the county or its municipalities is affected, the Miami-Dade County EOC would be
activated to provide the required assistance to the community. This system will be applied
in day-to-day activities, such as training and exercises, as well as emergency operations and
planning. Other responsibilities of the County include:
. Coordinating intra-county mutual aid;
· Maintaining a liaison with local jurisdictions within the County and with
neighboring counties;
· IdentifYing multi-purpose staging areas throughout the county to provide rally
points for incoming mutual aid and humanitarian depots for support of recovery
operations;
· Forwarding local mutual aid requests that cannot be satisfied from within the
County to the State EOC;
. Dispatching reports to the State EOC as the emergency situation develops and as
changes in the emergency dictate;
· Receiving and employing resources provided by other counties, State, federal, and
private agencies, and;
. Carrying out emergency regulations issued by proper authorities.
The Miami-Dade Office of Emergency Management, located at 9300 NW 41" Street in the
City of Doral, has decentralized direct communication will all municipalities in Miami-
Dade County in an effort to maintain a manageable span of control in the County
emergency operations center. There are seven "Divisional EOCs" located in the cities of:
Coral Gables; Hialeah; Homestead; Miami; Miami Beach; North Miami, and; North Miami
Beach.
The City of Aventura communicates with the Divisional Emergency Operations Center
located at North Miami Beach Police Department, 16901 NE 19th Ave, North Miami
Beach. The A ventura Police Department will assign the appropriate personnel to represent
the City at the Divisional EOC. Based within the Divisional EOCs will be representatives
from the other municipalities of Miami-Dade County. The Divisional EOCs serve as a
communication conduit to and from the Miami-Dade County EOC for all the municipalities
based within the Divisional EOC. Each Divisional EOC sends at least one representative to
the Miami-Dade County EOC to facilitate communication. The Divisional EOC
representatives sent to the Miami-Dade County EOC have a clear understanding of the
42
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
Emergency Response Plans of the municipalities they represent and Miami-Dade County.
The Divisional EOC representative is an official capable of making key decisions. Some
responsibilities ofthe Divisional EOC include:
. Monitoring and coordinating the response and recovery activities of the various
assigned municipalities through Divisional EOC chain-of-command;
· Providing or coordinating requested support four Divisional EOC staff
municipalities;
· Working closely with other remember to share information, professional and
technical skills, personnel and equipment, and;
· Anticipating upcoming needs and potential problems.

2. Social, Economic and Environmental Impacts
Section 163.3 191 (2)(e), F.S., requires that the potential social, economic, and
environmental impacts of the identified major issues be addressed in the EAR. The social,
economic and environmental impacts of emergency management are summarized below.
Maintaining an emergency management system is essential to guaranteeing the health,
safety and welfare of the City's existing and future residents and visitors, particularly in
hurricane-vulnerable areas such as South Florida. The failure to adequately prepare for a
major storm event can result in the loss of life and destruction of property, and disrupt the
normal course of daily activities for long periods of time, with great social and economic
costs. For example, aftereffects of Hurricane Andrew are still evident in South Miami-
Dade County. The City must have post-disaster recovery programs to expedite the
normalization of City functions, and assist residents and businesses in their recovery, both
financially and emotionally.
From an environmental standpoint, natural resources are often damaged or destroyed in
hurricane and storm events, and their restoration is an important component of post-disaster
recovery efforts. Moreover, the loss of natural habitat due to development and human
alteration can increase vulnerability to storm events. For example, coastal mangroves and
wetlands provide a natural function in reducing storm surges, and pervious surfaces
increase drainage capacity and reduce flooding. The natural system must therefore be
considered as a component in emergency management and post-disaster recover programs.
50
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
3. Comprehensive Plan Impacts and Recommendations
Section 163.3191 (2)(g), F.S., requires that the EAR evaluate the plan objectives within

51
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
a. Future Laud Use Element
Recommendation II.C.I. Objective 3 states that decisions regarding the location,
extent and intensity of future land uses in the City will be based on environmental
conditions and level of service standards. It is recommended that that this Objective be
amended to add "and the ability to maintain the hurricane evacuation clearance times of 12
hours or less" after "conditions",
Recommendation II.C.2. Policy 8.2 specifies the criteria by which applications to
amend the Comprehensive Plan shall be evaluated. It is recommended that "impacts on the
City's ability to maintain the hurricane evacuation clearance times of 12 hours or less" be
added to the list of criteria.
Recommendation II.C.3. Objective 12 states that the City shall coordinate its coastal
planning area population densities with the South Florida Regional Planning Council and
Miami-Dade County Office of Emergency Management. It is recommended that this
Objective be amended to state that the City shall coordinate its coastal planning area
population densities with the South Florida Regional Planning Council, Miami-Dade
County Office of Emergency Management, and adjacent jurisdictions.
Recommendation II.C.4. Policy 12.1 states that all proposed Comprehensive Plan
amendments that increase population density shall be analyzed for impacts on hurricane
evacuation routes and times included in the 1996 South Florida Regional Hurricane
Evacuation Study. It is recommended that this Policy be revised to state that the proposed
Comprehensive Plan amendments that increase population density shall be analyzed for
impacts on hurricane evacuation routes and times based on the best and most recent
available South Florida Regional Planning Council data regarding hurricane evacuation
clearance times in the City.
Recommendation II.C.5. It is recommended that a new Policy be added under
Objective 12 stating that by 2007, the City shall coordinate with the appropriate agencies to

City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
11.0. TRANSPORTATION
1. Issue Description and Analysis
a. City of Aventura Transportation System
The City of Aventura is located within Miami-Dade County's Vrban Infill Area (VIA),
which is designated as a Transportation Concurrency Exception Area, and is exempt from
transportation concurrency requirements. The City has therefore not had to delay or
prohibit development or redevelopment due to transportation concurrency issues between
1995 and 2005.
The City's adopted Level of Service standards for transportation are: a minimum peak
period LOS of E on State and City roads where no public mass transit exists; where mass
transit having headways of 20 minutes or less is provided, roadways shall operate at no
greater than 120 percent of their capacity, and; where extraordinary transit service such as
commuter rail or express bus service exists, parallel roadways within y, mile shall operate
at no greater than 150 percent of their capacity. An express bus service is provided in the
City between Aventura Mall and Golden Glades, and along Biscayne Boulevard. The
Level of Service standards for roadways are based on the following definitions:
. LOS A - free flow traffic operations at average travel speeds;
· LOS B - stable flow with other users in traffic stream;
· LOS C - uncongested with other users causing significant interactions;
. LOS D - congested stable flow with major delays;
· LOS E - very congested with traffic at or near capacity, and;
· LOS F - extremely congested with breakdown flows.
In orderto determine the current levels of service on roadways in Aventura, level of service
information was taken from the Miami Dade County MPO 2030 Long Rang Transportation
Plan, which is the official transportation planning document for Miami-Dade County. It
specifies all transportation projects to be planned, designed or constructed within this time
horizon. It utilizes a complex modeling structure which integrates the most recent Census
data and traffic information. It then distributes and projects trips, volumes and levels of
service in the future. A new LRTP is developed every five years. This becomes the basis
for determining and prioritizing transportation needs. To be eligible for federal dollars,
projects must first be part ofthis plan.
Information indicates that at the time of the counts: Ives Dairy Road was operating at LOS
F, William Lehman Causeway was operating at LOS B, Biscayne Boulevard was operating
at LOS F, and Country Club Drive, Aventura Boulevard, Waterways Boulevard, and NE
34th Avenue, were all operating at LOS B or better. Overall, this examination determined
that there is capacity remaining on the roadway network (nearly an extra travel lane's
worth, or 2,000 trips). Nonetheless, based on the most recent available data, the City is not
meeting its roadway Level of Service standards on Biscayne Boulevard or Ives Dairy Road.
54
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
Figure II.D.l shows the projected levels of service on the city's roadways during the
planning period. As can be seen, it is projected that by 2030: William Lehman Causeway
will be operating at LOS B; Aventura Boulevard will be at LOS D, and; Country Club
Drive will be mainly at LOS E, with the links approaching the William Lehman Causeway
at LOS F. NE 34th Avenue will be at LOS F and Waterways Boulevard will be at LOS E.
Ives Dairy Road and Biscayne Boulevard will continue to operate at LOS F. Therefore, it
is projected that the City will not be meeting its roadway Level of Service standards for
portions of Country Club Drive, Ives Dairy Road, or Biscayne Boulevard in 2030.
The City's existing transportation system is comprised of more than roadways. Mass
transit service in the City is provided by the Miami-Dade Transit Authority through express
and regular bus service (Figure II.D.2)23, and by the City of Aventura through its internal
shuttle bus service (Figure II.D.3). The City of Aventura's shuttlebus service boasts an
average monthly ridership of 9,000, and has had a total ridership of 457,138 since its
inception in 199924.
Bicycles and pedestrian paths/sidewalks are another important component of the City's
transportation system. The City provides sidewalks along most major roadways, and
major bicycle and pedestrian paths along Country Club Drive around the Turnberry Golf
Course and along NE 187 Street. In addition, there are many waterways in the City that
provide opportunities for recreational boating. Although there is no water taxi service in
the City at present, it might be explored as a future option for trips within the City, and
between the City and other waterfront locales.

b. Transportation Challenges and Opportunities
A number of issues combine in A ventura to make planning for transportation a challenge.
These include the City's geographic location, in the northeast quadrant of the county, near
the barrier islands and ocean. This location specifically, and the region as a whole, is one
of the most desirable locations in the nation. Intensification of land uses and limited
capacity present issues to the transportation network. It is clear that the City's existing and
future residents need better and more diverse mobility options.
As noted earlier, Aventura is in a Transportation Concurrency Exception Area, (TCEA).
As practiced to this date, there are essentially no checks and balances on development in
regards to transportation under this system. [n May 2005, the State of Florida amended
Section [63.3180, F.S. to require that local governments include provisions in their
Comprehensive Plan to support and fund mobility within Transportation Concurrency
Exception Areas, and demonstrate how mobility will be provided in these areas. The new
legislation further requires that by July 2006, local governments evaluate the impact of the
Transportation Concurrency Exception Area on its transportation system, the Strategic
[ntermodal Transportation System, and adopted level of service standards of roadways
funded in accordance with Section 339.28[9, F.S., and identify strategies to alleviate or
mitigate such impacts. [n accordance with the new requirements, the Florida Department
of Transportation (FOOT) must be consulted to assess the impact on level of service
standards. The City shall coordinate with FOOT, Miami-Dade County, and other
jurisdictions in the County in the development of common methodologies for measuring
such impacts. [f impacts are found, the local government and FOOT must work together to
mitigate those impacts. By December 1, 2006 a method for assessing proportionate fuir-
share mitigation options must be adopted, in accordance with a model ordinance that will
be developed by FOOT on or before December 1,2005. Proof that cities participating in
this type of system are enhancing alternative modes of transportation, fostering mobility
and ensuring connectivity will also be required. In addition, by 2006 the City shall
maintain records to determine whether the 110% de minimus transportation impact
threshold has been reached, and shall submit such documentation as part of its annual
updates to the Capital Improvements Schedule, which shall be incorporated into the
Comprehensive Plan by amendment.
It is anticipated that this legislation will significantly change the impact of the TCEAs, as
proposed development in these areas will be subject to a more stringent review of its
impacts on the transportation system and levels of service.
Transportation and mobility in A ventura may be best served initially by the recommended
amendments to the City's land development regulations. It is recommended that at the
same time, Transportation Concurrency Exception Areas should be maintained under the
2005 legislation, until such time that the City feels this level of care is inadequate. [fthis
occurs, the City should explore the implementation of more impactful transportation
management tools. [n addition it is recommended that the City mitigate impacts to the
59
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
transportation system by developing an impact fee charged to developers, which would
fund alternative modes oftransportation.
It has been noted that there are few if any opportunities to expand the physical capacity of
the roadway network in A ventura. Capacity and mobility improvements will therefore
occur through alternative means. In order to more closely assure that mobility is
maintained in the City as development occurs, the City should examine the implementation
of impact fees to fund the operations and maintenance ofthe Aventura Circulator.

c. Transportation Funding
Funding for transportation projects comes from federal, State and local sources. Most
major projects are funded from federal funds distributed by the MPO. The MPO also
issues several municipal grants each year. The primary source of transportation funding for
cities in Miami Dade County is from the People's Transportation Plan, the halfpenny sales
tax passed in 2002. Twenty percent of total tax dollars are distributed to the municipalities.
A ventura receives approximately $800,000 per year, of which 20% or $160,000 is to be
spent on transit activities. The following is a description of the transportation funding
process.
i. Federal
The federal government collects 24.4 cents per gallon on diesel and 18.4 cents per gallon
on gasoline to fund federal transportation projects. Of the amount collected, 2.86 cents
goes to transit, one cent goes to cleaning up leaking tanks, and the remainder goes to roads
and bridges.
Federal transportation funds are currently authorized under the TEA-21 legislation. The
program actually expired in 2003, but is operating under a continuing resolution due to the
inability of Congress to pass a new transportation authorization bill. Many of the Federal
programs are available only to State transportation departments, which are in turn passed
on to County's and local governments. TEA-21 funds are distributed between transit,
highway, and safety projects.
ii. State
The State of Florida collects 10.1 cents per gallon on fuel (diesel and gasoline), that the
Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) retains. Fifteen percent (15%) of that
money goes to transit and the remainder goes to any legitimate State transportation need.
The State also collects 4.6 cents on gasoline and 5.6 cents on diesel under the SCETS
(State Comprehensive Enhanced Transportation System) tax, which must be spent in the
district that it is collected.
iii. Local
The State also collects fuel tax money that is distributed directly back to counties and local
governments. Two (2) cents are collected as the Constitutional Fuel Tax which can go only
to the acquisition, construction, and maintenance of roads. The County fuel tax collects an
additional one (1) cent that can be spent for any legitimate County transportation purpose,
and municipalities collect another one (1) cent that can be spent on any legitimate
municipal transportation purpose. Counties can elect to collect one more cent through what
is referred to as the ninth-cent fuel tax, and between five (5) cents and 11 cents under the
Local Option Gas Tax. The ninth cent and the local option gas tax go back to the local
jurisdiction to meet local transportation needs.
61
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
An additional source of local transportation funds comes from the Charter County
Transportation System Surtax which allows transit counties to collect between .5% and 1%
sales tax on gasoline to be spent on transit programs. These funds must provide for the
distribution of some funds back to the municipalities. Miami-Dade County collects .5
cent sales tax on gasoline.
The only local transportation money that is not collected from gasoline taxes resulted from
Miami-Dade County's November 2002 passage ofa halfpenny sales tax on merchandise to
develop the People's Transportation Plan. The legislation requires that 20% ofthe sales tax
money be distributed to the municipalities for their use for transportation related
expenditures. This money is redistributed to the municipalities based upon an annual
population estimate. Twenty percent of the surtax proceeds are distributed to those cities
existing as of November 5, 2002. Surtax proceeds are distributed among existing cities on
a pro rata basis based on the ratio ofa city's population to the total of all City populations,
as adjusted annually. Newly incorporated cities have the right to negotiate with the County
for a pro rata share of the surtax. Cities must apply 20% of their funds to transit uses such
as circulators, bus shelters, and bus pull outs. In 2003, the County collected $175 million
dollars, of which $35 million was distributed to the cities for transportation. The ordinance
that enacted the Y, cent sales tax identified a number of transportation and transit projects to
be funded through the tax, including the Northeast Corridor, a l3.6-mile MetroRail corridor
that will extend from downtown Miami to NE 215 Street, generally along the Biscayne
Blvd.IUS I Corridor and Florida East Coast railroad right-of-way.
It should be noted that current revenues that the City receives for transportation fund only
capital improvements, and do not fund operation and maintenance. It is therefore
recommended that the City enact impact fees and other mechanisms in order to provide for
such funding, improve transportation levels of service, and expand the mobility options of
existing and future residents.
62
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
2. Social, Economic and Environmental Impacts
Section 163.3191(2)(e), F.S., requires that the potential social, economic, and
environmental impacts of the identified major issues be addressed in the EAR. The social,
economic and environmental impacts of Issue 1.0., "Transportation". are addressed as
follows.
Although the City of Aventura has a multimodal transportation system, its existing
transportation system is primarily oriented to the automobile. There are a number of
persons and households, however, who do not have regular access to an automobile, and
who therefore have difficulty accessing employment, recreation and other services
(transportation disadvantaged). Unfortunately, the transportation disadvantaged also tend
to be members of special needs groups (i.e. the elderly, the disabled) with the greatest need
for services. The resulting cycle exacerbates the very factors that contributed to their
disadvantages in the first place. The provision of an increased range of mobility
alternatives will therefore increase the access of transportation disadvantaged persons and
households to employment and services, with associated positive economic and social
benefits.
The provision of an improved multi-modal transportation system will have a number of
other positive economic benefits. Employers benefit by the improved access of existing
and potential employees to the workplace, and businesses benefit from being more
accessible to their customer base. Moreover, a good transportation system can be a key
factor in attracting new employers and businesses to the area.
Automobiles have a number of negative environmental impacts, including traffic
congestion, air pollution, and energy consumption. The provision of alternatives to the
automobile for local and regional trips lessens these negative environmental impacts.
Moreover, mobility alternatives are perhaps the most important factors in reducing urban
sprawl, and fostering more efficient land use patterns and reduced land consumption.
63
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
3. Comprehensive Plan Impacts and Recommendations
Section 163.3191 (2)(g), F.S., requires that the EAR evaluate the plan objectives within
each element as they relate to the major issues and identify, where appropriate, unforeseen
or unanticipated changes in circumstances which have resulted in problems or opportunities
with respect to the major issues. Issue 1.0., "Transportation", impacts:
. Objectives 3 and 8 ofthe Future Land Use Element, and policies thereunder, as they
address strategies to ensure the availability of services and infrastructure to
accommodate new development and redevelopment and procedures to amend the
Comprehensive Plan;
. The Transportation Element in its entirety;
. Objectives 2 and 3 of the Capital Improvements Element, and policies thereunder,
as they address strategies to ensure the availability of services and infrastructure to
accommodate new development and redevelopment, and;
. Policy 1.6 of the Intergovernmental Coordination Element is impacted because it
calls for the establishment of a coordinated regional transit system for the
transportation disadvantaged.
Specific recommendations to amend the Comprehensive Plan to address the issue of
transportation are as follows:
a. Transportation Element
Recommendation II.D.l. Add a new Objective to the Transportation Element stating
that by 2007, the City shall review and amend its land development regulations in order to
provide a cohesive blueprint for development and redevelopment in the City to ensure that
new development enhances mobility options and that redevelopment does not further
degrade transportation levels of service.
Recommendation II.D.2. Add a new Policy under Objective I stating that beginning in
2006, the City of Aventura shall annually evaluate the impact of the Transportation
Concurrency Exception Area on its transportation system, the Strategic Intermodal
Transportation System, and adopted level of service standards of roadways funded in
accordance with Section 339.2819, F.S., and identify strategies to alleviate or mitigate such
impacts. In accordance with the new requirements, the Florida Department of
Transportation (FOOT) must be consulted in the evaluation of such impacts. The City shall
coordinate with FOOT, Miami-Dade County, and other jurisdictions in the County in the
development of common methodologies for measuring such impacts. If it is determined
that the Transportation Concurrency Exception Area is no longer adequate, the City shall
explore the implementation of more impactful transportation management tools.
Recommendation II.D.3. Add a new Policy under Objective I of the Transportation
Element stating that the City will continue to identify projects to support and fund mobility,
enhance alternative modes of transportation, and ensure connectivity in its Capital
Improvements Program in accordance with Section 163.3180, F.S.
64
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
Recommendation II.D.4. Add a new Policy under Objective 1 stating that beginning in
2006, the City shall evaluate the impacts of proposed development and redevelopment on
its transportation system, Strategic Intermodal System facilities, and the adopted level of
service standards of transportation facilities that are funded in accordance with Section
339.2812, F.S., and identiJY strategies to alleviate or mitigate such impacts in coordination
with the developer and other agencies as appropriate. In accordance with the new
requirements, the Florida Department of Transportation (FOOT) must be consulted to
assess the impact of a proposed development on level of service standards. The City shall
coordinate with FOOT, Miami-Dade County, and other jurisdictions in the County in the
development of common methodologies for measuring such impacts.
Recommendation II.D.s. Add a new Policy under Objective I stating that by 2007 the
City will develop impacts lees and other methods by which developers can mitigate
impacts to the transportation system by contributing funds for alternative modes of
transportation, particularly the expansion, operation and maintenance of the Circulator
System.
Recommendation II.D.6. Add a new Policy under Objective I stating that the City
shall adopt a method for assessing proportionate fair-share transportation impact mitigation
options, in accordance with a model ordinance that will be developed by FOOT.
Recommendation II.D.7. Add a new Policy under Objective I stating that the City shall
maintain records to determine whether the 110% de minimus transportation impact
threshold has been reached, and shall submit such documentation as part of its annual
updates to the Capital Improvements Schedule, which shall be incorporated into the
Comprehensive Plan by amendment.

II.E. QUALITY OF LIFE
1. Issue Description and Analysis
The City of Aventura is well-known for the excellent quality of life that it provides to its
residents and visitors. The City's high quality of development, world-class shopping and
entertainment venues, waterfront location, and public and private recreational offerings
have made it one of the most desirable locales in South Florida for residents and
businesses. Due to on-going development pressures and competing needs, however, the
City is challenged to maintain and improve the high quality of life it offers to current and
future residents, businesses, and visitors. Steps must be taken to continue to maintain and
improve its quality of life in the fuce of these pressures.
Maintaining and improving levels of services for key facilities and services is integral to
maintaining the City's quality of life. Some of these services, such as recreation and open
space and public safety, are within the purview of the City and its administration. Other
services such as public schools, libraries, and fife-rescue are provided in the City by other
agencies such as Miami-Dade County and Miami-Dade County Public Schools. The City
must increase coordination efforts with these entities in order to ensure that its quality of
life is maintained and enhanced.
66
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
a. Recreation and Open Space
The City of A ventura's adopted Level of Service standard for recreation and open space is
2.75 acres of net usable park land per 1,000 residents. Based on its 2000 population of
25,267, the City must therefore provide 69.48 acres of recreation open space in order to
meet its Level of Service standard. The City estimates that its 2005 population is 28,200
residents, requiring 77.55 acres of recreation and open space.
As noted on Table II.A.2., the City has 257.07 acres of recreation open space identified on
its Future Land Use Plan Map, including public and private open space. In order to
determine the amount of recreation and open space that is available for use by residents for
concurrency purposes, the City counts public parks at 100 percent, private recreation
facilities at 50 percent, and marinas and golf course at 25 percent. Based on this formula,
the City's existing recreation and open space acreage is 114. The City is therefore
exceeding its recreation and open space Level of Service standard by 38.4 acres. Table
III.E.I. below identified the City's public and private recreation and open space by type
and acreage.

As can be seen on Table II.E.1. above, the City currently has 29 acres of recreation and
open space in six public parks. These parks are shown on Figure [I.E.I. Current park
projects include development and expansion of Waterways Park, improvements to
Founders Park, and Country Club tennis court improvements. The City has earmarked
$4,835,006 for these projects in FY 2005/06 and FY 2006/07.29
29 City of Avenlllra Capita/Improvements Program 2005 - 2010
67
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
In order to ensure that new development and redevelopment pays its fuir share for
recreation and open space, the City collects a Parks Impact Fee as per Article IV., Division
5 of its Code of Ordinances. Under these requirements, residential developers must pay
$1,352.00 per new detached single family unit, $1,352.00 per new attached single family
unit, and $690.00 per new multi-family unit. These impact fees are earmarked for capital
improvements and expansions to the City's park system through the Park Development
Fund. In FY 2005/06 the City budgeted $1,000,000 in park impact fees for park
development and improvement projects. In addition, the City negotiates with private
developers to provide recreation and open space in the City. For example, the City
acquired a 2 acre parcel from the developer of the Peninsula Condominium project for
recreation and open space. This parcel is now known as Veterans' Park and consists of a
children's playground and dog park.
Maintaining public access to the City's waterfront is another important component of
meeting the recreational needs of existing and future residents. The City owns waterfront
acreage in Founders Park, Waterways Park, the NE 188 Street shoreline, and on the
northern perimeter of Little Maule Lake. These sites are shown on Figure II.E.2.
Beautification programs are another important component of maintaining and improving
quality of life in the City. In December 1996 the City Commission initiated the Citywide
Beautification Program in order to landscape medians, rights-of-way and public spaces
throughout the City. This program has been key to maintaining and improving the City's
built environment. A total of $577,000 is earmarked for City beautification programs in
FY 2005/06 and FY 2006/0730.

b. Public Schools
The City of Aventura, like jurisdictions throughout Florida, is fuced with a number of
challenges regarding public schools. The City's population has increased as a result of
continued development and redevelopment, and this growth has increased demand for new
or expanded school facilities. A number of the County's school facilities are overcrowded,
and new schools cannot be provided quickly enough to meet the demand for new student
stations. Moreover, the City has few remaining vacant and developable parcels, which
limits the availability of land for new school construction.
The City of Aventura is currently served by two elementary schools, one middle school,
and one senior high school. Table I1.E.2. identifies these schools, and shows their 2004
enrollment, Class Size Reduction Capacity, and current utilization rates. Utilization rates
are calculated by Miami-Dade County Public Schools by dividing enrollment by class size
reduction capacity. If the utilization rate ofa school exceeds 100 percent, it is considered
to be overcrowded. As can be seen on Table 1lI.E.2., the four public schools serving the
City are overcrowded.

Excellence Charter
Schoo I
In 1996, the State of Florida enacted legislation that provided for the creation of charter
schools, non-profit corporations that are typically operated by a group of parents, teachers,
an organization, a municipality, universities, and/or a combination of more than one group.
There are many reasons to establish a charter school but as outlined in the Board Rule the
major reasons are: to improve student learning, to increase learning opportunities for all
students with special emphasis on expanded learning experiences for academically low
achieving students; to encourage use of innovative learning methods; to increase choices of
learning opportunities for students; to establish a new form of accountability for schools; to
require the measurement of learning outcomes and create innovative measurement tools; to
1I Miami-Dade Public 5OOools, 2005
71
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
make the school the unit for improvement; and to create new professional opportunities for
32
teachers.
A charter school is bound by the requirements of Sections 228.056, 230.22 and .23, Florida
Statutes and Miami-Dade County School Board Rule 6Gx13.6A.1.47 and must be reviewed
and approved by the School Board. They are also fully recognized public schools.
On August 25, 2003, the Aventura City of Excellence Charter School opened as the first
municipally sponsored charter school in Miami-Dade County. Located at 3333 NE 188
Street, the A ventura City of Excellence Charter School serves up to 600 students between
kindergarten and fifth grade. In its short history the school has become an important
component of the community, and a source of great civic pride. Its success is evidenced by
a return rate of over 99 percent and A rating. The school operates as a City Department,
and its Principal reports to the City Manager. The school demonstrates the City's
commitment to ensuring the quality of life of existing and future residents. The City is
currently expanding the A ventura City of Excellence Charter School to serve 6"h grade
students by 2005, 7'h grade students by 2006, and 8"h grade students by 2007 increasing the
student capac ity to 900.
In May 2005, the State of Florida amended its growth management statutes to require that
local governments establish and enforce concurrency requirements for public schools and
adopt public school facilities elements into their comprehensive plans. According to the
new requirements, the public school IiIcilities element and concurrency requirements must
be adopted by no later than December I, 2008 on a phased schedule to be established by
the Florida Department of Community Affairs. As demonstrated on Table II.E.2. above,
the public schools serving the City of A ventura are all overcrowded, with the exception of
the A ventura City of Excellence Charter School. The new school concurrency
requirements may therefore have implications for future development and redevelopment
in the City. The City will monitor the interpretation and implementation of the new
requirements, and coordinate with the State, Miami-Dade County Public Schools, regional
and County agencies, and other jurisdictions to address the new requirements and adopt the
Public School Facilities Element into its Comprehensive Plan in accordance with the
established schedule. As of the date of this report, however, it is unclear how the new
requirements will be applied and implemented.

c. Public Safety
Ensuring the heahh and safety of residents and visitors is another important component in
maintaining and improving quality of life. Between 1997 and 2005 the number of sworn
police officers in the City of Aventura increased from 49 to 76. The City's crime rate has
decreased rapidly during that period, as is demonstrated on Table II.E.3. below.

In order to maintain and improve the quality of its police services, and ensure that new
development pays its fuir share for increased police services that will be necessitated by
such development, the City collects a Police Fee as per Article IV., Division 5 of its Code
of Ordinances. Under these requirements, developers must pay $96.47 per residential unit
and $.140 per square foot of non-residential development. Between FY 05 and FY 10, it is
projected that the police impact fee will generate revenues of $531 ,000. These funds are
earmarked for capital outlay items such as new equipment necessitated by increased
demand.
Fire rescue service in the City of A ventura is provided by the Miami-Dade County Fire
Rescue Department. The City coordinates with the County in order to maintain and
improve the quality of fire rescues service that it provides to the City and its residents. The
average fire rescue response time in Miami-Dade County is currently estimated to be
between eight and nine minutes. The average response time in the City is six to eight
minutes.33

d. Historic, Archeological, and Cultural Resources
The preservation of significant, historic, archeological, and cultural resources is another
important component in ensuring the quality of life of existing and future residents. The
City has no historically, architecturally or archaeologically significant sites designated at
present. Although the City finds it unlikely that any of its structures or sites would qualify
for designation, a cultural resource assessment survey should be completed in conjunction
with the Miami-Dade County Office of Historic Preservation and Florida Department of
State in order to confirm that there are no significant historically, architecturally, or
archaeologically-significant sites within its jurisdiction. Such a survey has not been
completed to date due to the myriad challenges associated with establishing a new City,
and the obvious lack of concentrations of historic, architectural, and archaeological
resources. Nonetheless, the City should complete the afore-mentioned assessment within
the planning period in order to ensure compliance with State and local requirements.

2. Social, Economic and Environmental Impacts
Section 163.3191(2)(e), F.S., requires that the potential social, economic, and
environmental impacts of the identified major issues be addressed in the EAR. The social,
economic and environmental impacts of Issue IE., "Quality of Life", are addressed as
follows.
The provision of recreation open space has numerous positive social benefits for the
community. By providing a venue for physical activities, parks can result in a healthier
population, with positive public health implications. Moreover, parks provide an outlet for
positive social interaction and activity, which can ease the boredom and isolation that leads
to crime and other social problems. Parks are particularly important as a social and
recreational outlet for youths and special needs populations.
The effective provision of such services as schools, police, and fire-rescue has great
impacts on the public health, safety, and welfare, and to the social fabric of the community.
The City has demonstrated its commitment to improving the delivery of these services
through the charter school, increased police force, and other initiatives. Moreover, the City
will continue to work cooperatively with agencies having jurisdiction within the City, or
sharing common interests with the City, to improve the delivery of services such as public
schools and fll"e-rescue.
From an economic standpoint, a well-developed and maintained park system, quality public
schools, and strong public safety programs are important tools in attracting new businesses
and residents to the City. Parks and public safety programs are key to crime reduction and
improved public health, lessening the negative economic impacts of crime and rising health
care costs. Quality schools are key to the economy by providing existing and future
residents with the tools necessary for economic self-sufficiency and advancement, and
employers with an educated and skilled workforce. Although there is a public cost to
providing these services, these costs are mitigated by these factors.
Parks also have numerous positive environmental impacts. The City is experiencing rapid
growth, and is substantially built out. Parks provide urban relief in a built environment.
Moreover, open space plays a key role in the ecosystem through providing such functions
as aquifer recharge, wildlife habitat, and air quality. It is therefore imperative to maintain
open space as a viable land use in the City.

3. Comprehensive Plan Impacts and Recommendations
Section 163.3191 (2)(g), F.S., requires that the EAR evaluate the plan objectives within
each element as they relate to the major issues and identifY, where appropriate, unforeseen
or unanticipated changes in circumstances which have resuhed in problems or opportunities
with respect to the major issues. Issue I.E., "Quality of Life", impacts:
. The Future Land Use Element in its entirety;
. The Parks and Recreation Element in its entirety;
· The Capital Improvements Element in its entirety;
· The Intergovernmental Coordination Element in its entirety;
· Coastal Management Goal, Objective 4, Policy 4.3 of the Conservation & Coastal
Management Element as it addresses protection of natural reservations identified in
the Parks and Recreation Element, and;
· Coastal Management Goal, Objectives 6 and 12 of the Conservation & Coastal
Management Element, and policies thereunder, as they address the preservation and
enhancement of waterfront sites for water-dependent uses.
Specific recommendations to amend the Comprehensive Plan to address the issue of
transportation are as follows:
a. Land Use Element
Recommendation n.E.!. Policy 2.1 states that the City shall undertake efforts to locate
sites with confirmed historic, architectural, and archeological significance. It is
recommended that this Policy be amended to state that by 2010 the City shall coordinate
with the Miami-Dade County Office of Historic Preservation and Florida Department of
State in order to identifY significant historically, architecturally, or archaeologically-
significant sites, if any, within its jurisdiction.
b. Parks and Recreation Element
Recommendation n.E.2. Objective 2 states that the City will coordinate the provision
of public and private resources to meet recreation demands within one year of Plan
adoption. It is recommended that this Objective be amended to state that the City wi II
continue to coordinate the provision of public and private resources to meet recreation
demands, and that the reference to "within one year of Plan adoption" be deleted.
Recommendation n.E.3. Policy 2.1 states that there were no recreation system
deficiencies at the date of the Comprehensive Plan's adoption. It is recommended that this
Policy be amended to state that the City will continue to ensure that it meets and exceeds its
established Level of Service Standard for Recreation and Open Space through the
Concurrency Management System, the collection of Park Impacts Fees, and other
strategies.
76
City of Aventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
Recommendation II.E.4. Policy 3.1 states that the City will develop land development
regulations to include appropriate definitions of open space needs and standards. It is
recommended that this Policy be amended to state that the City will continue to ensure that
open space requirements for new development and redevelopment are met through the
implementation and enforcement of its land development regulations.

CHAPTER III.
OBJECTIVE ACHIEVEMENT ANALYSIS
An important objective of the Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR) is the identification
of successes and shortcomings in implementing the Comprehensive Plan objectives
(Sections 163.3191(2) (g) and (h), F.S. since the Plan's adoption in 1998. The following
Chapter measures the City's progress in implementing its adopted Comprehensive Plan
goals, objectives and policies.
III.A. FUTURE LAND USE ELEMENT
1. Objective FLU-l
Objective I of the Future Land Use Element is as follows: "The following land use
densities, intensities and approaches shall be incorporated in the Land Development
Regu lations."
For each objective, the Comprehensive Plan identifies a monitoring measure. The
monitoring measure for this objective is as follows: "Incorporation of the stated land use
designations into the Land Development Regulations."
Land Use designations as outlined in the Comprehensive Plan are more general and Land
Development Regulations (Zoning) are more specific. Chapter 163, Florida Statutes and
Rule 9J-5, Florida Administrative Code require consistency between a city's land use
designations and land development regulations. Therefore, through zoning the land use
designations are incorporated. A review of Chapter 31, Land Development Regulations, of
the City of Aventura's Code of Ordinances confirms that the City has incorporated its
Future Land Use designations into its land development regulations.
In order to further evaluate the City's success in achieving Objective FLU-I, a brief
assessment of whether or not the supporting policies (FLU-l.I through FLU-1.3) have been
or are being implemented and their continued relevance was conducted. A summary of this
analysis is provided in Table II1.A.] below:

development of well designed communities containing a variety of uses, housing types and
public services, renewal and rehabilitation of blighted areas. [9J-5.006 (3)(b)(2)]"
For each objective, the Comprehensive Plan identifies a monitoring measure. The
monitoring measure for this objective is as follows: "Residential and non-residential land
use densities within the City by LUP map category."
79
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
Residential and non-residential land use densities and intensities are described on the LUP
map by category and further described in the Comprehensive Plan text. See Chapter II.A.
of this report for a description of the City's residential and non-residential land uses by
category.
In order to further evaluate the City's success in achieving Objective FLU-2, a brief
assessment of whether or not the supporting policies (FLU-2.1 through FLU-2.6) have been
or are being implemented and their continued relevance was conducted. A summary of this

3. Objective FLU-3
Objective 3 of the Future Land Use Element is as follows: "Decisions regarding the
location, extent and intensity of future land use in A ventura will be based upon suitable
environmental conditions and the financial feasibility of providing, by the year 2005,
services at levels of service (LOS) that meet or exceed the minimum standards adopted in
the Capital Improvements Element. [9J-5.006(3)(b) 1]"
For each objective, the Comprehensive Plan identifies a monitoring measure. The
monitoring measure for this objective is as follows: "Number of development actions that
exceeded adopted level of service standards."
No applications for development have been approved which exceed the adopted level of
service standards set by the City in the Capital Improvements Element and in Chapter 31
Land Development Regulations, Article XI Development Standards of General
Applicability. As part of the review concerning future land use changes environmental
conditions and the feasibility of providing services is always reviewed. As this is ongoing
reference to the year 2005 should be deleted.
In order to further evaluate the City's success in achieving Objective FLU-3, a brief
assessment of whether or not the supporting policies (FLU-3.1 through FLU-3.4) have been
or are being implemented and their continued relevance was conducted. A summary of this

ensure the protection of natural resources and systems by recognizing, and sensitively
responding to these constraints including historical resources. [9J-5.006(3)(b)4]"
For each objective, the Comprehensive Plan identifies a monitoring measure. The
monitoring measure for this objective is as follows: "Acres of environmentally sensitive
lands preserved within the City."
Through the requirements of the Land Use and Conservation and Coastal Management
Elements the City must evaluate and determine the acreage for various land uses within the
84
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
City including environmentally sensitive lands that are preserved. At this time, it is
calculated that there are approximately 35 acres of environmentally sensitive lands within
the City.
In order to further evaluate the City's success in achieving Objective FLU-4, a brief
assessment of whether or not the supporting policy (FLU-4.1) has been or is being
implemented and its continued relevance was conducted. A summary of this analysis is

5. Objective FLU-5
Objective 5 of the Future Land Use Element is as follows: "Aventura shall, by the year
2005, reduce the number of land uses inconsistent with the uses designated on the LUP
map or with the character of the surrounding community. [9J-5.006(3)(b)3]"
For each objective, the Comprehensive Plan identifies a monitoring measure. The
monitoring measure for this objective is as follows: "Acreage of inconsistent or
incompatible properties by LUP map category."
Currently, there are approximately 17 acres of inconsistent or incompatible properties by
LUP map category. Generally, the area known as the Hospital District has existing land
uses which are inconsistent with the uses designated on the Adopted Future Land Use Map.
The City is striving to reduce the amount of acreage that is inconsistent through the
redevelopment of this area. Inconsistent marine industrial uses along NE 188 Street have
transitioned into residential uses since the date of adoption, as per the Future Land Use
Plan Map. Implementation of the Town Center designation is ongoing; however, the uses
existing in this area are not inconsistent with the uses allowed in the Town Center
designation. Please see Chapter ILA. for further discussion about these areas. As this is
ongoing reference to the year 2005 should be deleted.

6. Objective FLU-6
Objective 6 of the Future Land Use Element is as follows: "Upon the adoption of the
A ventura Plan, all subsequent public and private activities regarding the use, development
and redevelopment of land and the provision of urban services and infrastructure shall be
consistent with the goal, objectives and policies of this Element, with recognized
Population Estimates and Projections, and with future uses designated on the adopted
Future Land Use Plan (FLUP) map, and as balanced with the Goals, Objectives and
Policies of all Elements of the Comprehensive Plan."
For each objective, the Comprehensive Plan identifies a monitoring measure. The
monitoring measure for this objective is as follows: "Number of development actions that
are inconsistent with the Goals, Objectives and Polices of the adopted Aventura
Comprehensive Plan."
No applications for development have been approved which are inconsistent with the
Goals, Objectives and Policies of the adopted Aventura Comprehensive Plan. Two
applications have been denied by the City due to inconsistencies with the Plan's goals,
objectives and policies.
In order to further evaluate the City's success in achieving Objective FLU-6, a brief
assessment of whether or not the supporting policy (FLU-6.]) has been or is being
implemented and its continued relevance was conducted. A summary of this analysis is

7. Objective FLU-7
Objective 7 of the Future Land Use Element is as follows: "The City of A ventura shall
protect, preserve, ensure the proper management, and promote public awareness of
historical, architectural and archaeologically significant sites."
For each objective, the Comprehensive Plan identifies a monitoring measure. The
monitoring measure for this objective is as follows: "Acres of identified historical,
architectural and archaeologically significant sites preserved by LUP map category."
The City has no historically, architecturally or archaeologically significant sites designated
on the LUP by category. Although the City finds it unlikely that any of its structures or
sites would quality for designation, a cultural resource assessment survey should be
completed in conjunction with the Miami-Dade County Office of Historic Preservation and
Florida Department of State in order to confirm that there are no significant historically,
architecturally, or archaeologically-significant sites within its jurisdiction. Such a survey
has not been completed to date due to the myriad challenges associated with establishing a
new City, and the obvious lack of concentrations of historic, architectural, and
archaeological resources. Nonetheless, the City should complete the afore-mentioned
assessment within the planning period in order to ensure compliance with State and local
requirements.
In order to further evaluate the City's success in achieving Objective FLU-7, a brief

Objective 8 of the Future Land Use Element is as follows: "The City of A ventura
Community Development Department shall maintain a process for periodic amendment to
the Land Use Plan map, consistent with the adopted Goals, Objectives and Policies of this
Plan."
For each objective, the Comprehensive Plan identifies a monitoring measure. The
monitoring measure for this objective is as follows: "Number of opportunities to amend the
A ventura Comprehensive Plan."
The City allows the statutory maximum for amendments to the Comprehensive Plan, which
is currently two per year pursuant to Section 163.3187, F.S.
In order to further evaluate the City's success in achieving Objective FLU-8, a brief

procedures, to ensure that future land use and development is consistent with the Plan, and
to promote better planned development and communities with well designed buildings. [9J-
5.006(3)(b)lO]"
For each objective, the Comprehensive Plan identifies a monitoring measure. The
monitoring measure for this objective is as follows: "Number of City sponsored
amendments to the Land Development Code."
The City has continued to update and enhance the land development regulations since
approval of Chapter 31 Land Development Regulations on July 13, 1999. The land
development regulations have been amended 12 times since 1999.
In order to further evaluate the City's success in achieving Objective FLU-9, a brief
assessment of whether or not the supporting policies (FLU-9.l through FLU-9.3) have been
or are being implemented and their continued relevance was conducted. A summary of this

For each objective, the Comprehensive Plan identifies a monitoring measure. The
monitoring measure for this objective is as follows: "No feasible measure exists. Surrogate
measure: Residential and non-residential land use densities within the City by LUP map
category."
Although no feasible measure exists, the City encourages thoughtful development patterns
such as the Town Center Zoning District to meet this objective. Residential and non-
residential land use densities and intensities are described on the LUP map by category and
further described in the Comprehensive Plan text. See Chapter ILA. of this report for a
description of the City's residential and non-residential land uses by category.
In order to further evaluate the City's success in achieving Objective FLU-IO, a brief
assessment of whether or not the supporting policy (FLU-IO.I) has been or is being
implemented and its continued relevance was conducted. A summary of this analysis is

Objective II ofthe Future Land Use Element is as follows: "Upon the adoption of the Plan,
the location, design and management practices of development and redevelopment shall
ensure the protection of natural resources and systems by recognizing, and sensitively
responding to constraints posed by soil conditions, topography, water table level,
vegetation type, wildlife habitat, and hurricane and other flood hazards."
For each objective, the Comprehensive Plan identifies a monitoring measure. The
monitoring measure for this objective is as follows: "Acres of environmentally sensitive
land by LUP map category; acres of developed land not serviced by sanitary sewer system
by LUP map category; acre-days ofland flooded by LUP map category."
This Objective should be updated and/or revisited because the Comprehensive Plan was
adopted. There are approximately 30 acres of environmentally sensitive land that is
designated Parks and Recreation on the Future Land Use Map and another 5 acres
designated Medium-High Density Residential. There are less than IS acres not serviced by
94
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
the sanitary sewer collection system in the Business and Office LUP category and located
mainly in the Hospital District. The acre-days of land flooded is not available but is
believed to be de minimus due to the sandy soil conditions and adequate stormwater
drainage.
In order to further evaluate the City's success in achieving Objective FLU-II, a brief

III.B. Transportation Element
1. Objective T-l
Objective I of the Transportation Element is as follows: "Provide the framework for a safe,
convenient, and energy efficient multi-modal transportation system through
implementation of the programs outlined in this element, and the concurrency and access
management systems contained in the City's land development regulations. [9J-
5.0 I 9(4)(b) I]"
For each objective, the Comprehensive Plan identifies a monitoring measure. The
monitoring measure for this objective is as follows: "Maintenance of adopted Level of
Service Standards."
Section 163.3191(2)(0), F.S., requires that local governments evaluate the extent to which
the multi-modal transportation district has been successful in achieving its purpose. As
noted in Chapter 11.0., the City of Aventura is located within Miami-Dade County's Urban
Infill Area (UIA), which is designated as a Transportation Concurrency Exemption Area,
and is exempt from transportation concurrency requirements. The City has therefore not
had to delay or prohibit development or redevelopment due to transportation concurrency
issues between 1995 and 2005. In this regard, the Transportation Concurrency Exception
Area has been successful in achieving one of its purposes; allowing development and
redevelopment in established infill areas where infrastructure is in place, despite the
congested roadway conditions that often exist in such areas.
The City's adopted Level of Service standards for transportation are: a minimum peak
period LOS of E on State and City roads where no public mass transit exists; where mass
transit having headways of 20 minutes or less is provided, roadways shall operate at no
greater than 120 percent of their capacity, and; where extraordinary transit service such as
commuter rail or express bus service exists, parallel roadways within y, mile shall operate
at no greater than 150 percent of their capacity. An express bus service is provided in the
City between Aventura Mall and Golden Glades, and along Biscayne Boulevard. The
Level of Service standards for roadways are based on the following definitions:
· LOS A - free flow traffic operations at average travel speeds;
· LOS B - stable flow with other users in traffic stream;
· LOS C - uncongested with other users causing significant interactions;
· LOS 0 - congested stable flow with major delays;
· LOS E - very congested with traffic at or near capacity, and;
· LOS F - extremely congested with breakdown flows.
In order to determine the current levels of service on roadways in A ventura, level of service
information was taken from the Miami Dade County MPO 2030 Long Rang Transportation
Plan, which is the official transportation planning document for Miami-Dade County. It
specifies all transportation projects to be planned, designed or constructed within this time
horizon. It utilizes a complex modeling structure which integrates the most recent Census
98
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
data and traffic information. It then distributes and projects trips, volumes and levels of
service in the future. A new LRTP is developed every five years. This becomes the basis
for determining and prioritizing transportation needs. To be eligible for federal dollars,
projects must first be part of this plan.
Information indicates that at the time of the counts: Ives Dairy Road was operating at LOS
F, William Lehman Causeway was operating at LOS B, Biscayne Boulevard was operating
at LOS F, and Country Club Drive, Aventura Boulevard, Waterways Boulevard, and NE
34th Avenue, were all operating at LOS B or better. Overal~ this examination determined
that there is capacity remaining on the roadway network (nearly an extra travel lane's
worth, or 2,000 trips). Nonetheless, based on the most recent available data, the City is not
meeting its roadway Level of Service standards on Biscayne Boulevard or Ives Dairy Road.
By 2030: William Lehman Causeway will be operating at LOS B; Aventura Boulevard will
be at LOS D, and; Country Club Drive will be mainly at LOS E, with the links
approaching the William Lehman Causeway at LOS F. NE 34th Avenue will be at LOS F
and Waterways Boulevard will be at LOS E. Ives Dairy Road and Biscayne Boulevard will
continue to operate at LOS F. Therefore, it is projected that the City will not be meeting its
roadway Level of Service standards for portions of Country Club Drive, Ives Dairy Road,
or Biscayne Boulevard in 2030.
The City's existing transportation system is comprised of more than roadways. Mass
transit service in the City is provided by the Miami-Dade Transit Authority through express
and regular bus service (Figure II.D.2)34, and by the City of Aventura through its internal
shuttle bus service (Figure II.D.3). The City of Aventura's shuttlebus service boasts an
average monthly ridership of 9,000, and has had a total ridership of 457,138 since its
inception in 199935. Bicycles and pedestrian paths/sidewalks are another important
component of the City's transportation system. The City provides sidewalks along most
major roadways, and major bicycle and pedestrian paths along Country Club Drive around
the Turnberry Golf Course and along NE 187 Street. In addition, there are many
waterways in the City that provide opportunities for recreational boating. Although there
is no water taxi service in the City at present, it might be explored as a future option for
trips within the City, and between the City and other waterfront locales. These projects
demonstrate the City's commitment to providing a multi-modal transportation system, in
accordance with its Transportation Concurrency Exception Area.
Please see Chapters II.D. and IV.F. for further discussion about these issues.
In order to further evaluate the City's success in achieving Objective T-l, a brief
assessment of whether or not the supporting policies (T-I.I through T-I.6) have been or are
being implemented and their continued relevance was conducted. A summary of this
analysis is provided in Table III.B. I below:

outlined in this element will be coordinated with the Future Land Use Map or map series to
ensure that the transportation modes are consistent with the land uses in the area by the
Plan's adoption. [9J-5.019(4)(b)2]"
For each objective, the Comprehensive Plan identifies a monitoring measure. The
monitoring measure for this objective is as follows: "Number of capital improvements that
encourage and support a multi-modal transportation system."
The latest Capital Improvements Program (2004-2009) calls for over $4.3 million in
sidewalk, drainage, roadway, signage and traffic video monitoring improvements.
In order to further evaluate the City's success in achieving Objective T-2, a brief

Florida Department of Transportation Adopted Work Program will be evaluated annually
as part of the annual update of the concurrency management system. [9J-5.0 19( 4)(b)3]"
For each objective, the Comprehensive Plan identifies a monitoring measure. The
monitoring measure for this objective is as follows: "Annual review of Miami-Dade
Metropolitan Planning Organization and FDOT adopted 5-year work programs. Number of
capital improvements that support the development and enhancement of intermodal
terminals."
The City, as with all other municipalities in Miami-Dade County, receive and review both
the MPO and FDOT adopted 5-year work program. There are no capital improvements that
support the development or enhancement of intermodal terminals in the City. Additionally,
as part of the work program process a high degree of intergovernmental coordination is
achieved.
In order to further evaluate the City's success in achieving Objective T-3, a brief
assessment of whether or not the supporting policies (T -3.1 through T-3.3) have been or are

4. Objective T-4
Objective 4 of the Transportation Element is as follows: "Through coordination of the
City's multi-modal transportation plan with the applicable public transit service and the
Miami-Dade Metropolitan Planning Organization, efficient public transit service will be
determined by the ridership. [9J-5.0]9(4)(b)4]"
For each objective, the Comprehensive Plan identifies a monitoring measure. The
monitoring measure for this objective is as follows: "By 2005, increase public transit
ridership by 10%."
Since its inception in ]999 the City's Shuttle Bus service has served over 457,138 people
on four bus routes within the City. In addition, overall County public transit ridership has
increased through better coordination of intra- and inter-city public transit services. It is

As noted on Table II.A.2., the City has 257.07 acres of recreation open space identified on
its Future Land Use Plan Map, including public and private open space. In order to
determine the amount of recreation and open space that is available for use by residents for
concurrency purposes, the City counts public parks at 100 percent, private recreation
facilities at 50 percent, and marinas and golf course at 25 percent. Based on this formula,
the City's existing recreation and open space acreage is 114. The City is therefore
exceeding its recreation and open space Level of Service standard by 38.4 acres. Please
see Chapter II.E. for more information.
In order to further evaluate the City's success in achieving Objective PR-4, a brief

City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
The affordable housing program is managed by Miami-Dade County since the City does
not have one. According to the Shimberg Center for Affordable Housing, there are no
public or assisted housing units in the City. Although the City does offer a range of
housing types and costs but affordability is limited due to the fuct that the median sales
price is $445,500 and the median gross rent is $1,256.00. Chapter II.B. further discusses
the City's housing needs and options, and makes recommendations to improve the delivery
of a full range of housing types affordable to all income groups.
In order to further evaluate the City's success in achieving Objective H-3, a brief
assessment of whether or not the supporting policies (H-3.\ and H-3.2) have been or are

4. Objective 11-1.4
Objective 4 of the Infrastructure Element Infrastructure Subsection Goal I is as follows:
"The City shall develop and implement a comprehensive water conservation program to
ensure that a sufficient, economical supply of fresh water is available to meet current and
future demand for potable water without degrading the environment."
For each objective, the Comprehensive Plan identifies a monitoring measure. The
monitoring measure for this objective is as follows: "Reduce per capita water consumption
by 10% by 2005."
Information that would allow precise measurement of this Objective specific to the City
does not exist. However, Miami-Dade County's 2003 Comprehensive Development
Master Plan Evaluation and Appraisal Report indicates that gallons per capita per day has
declined in the County from 179 in 1995 to 159 in 2002, an II percent decrease. Due to
this being a more regional issue, the Miami-Dade Water and Sewer Department through
Chapter 32 Water and Sewer Regulations, the Miami-Dade County Department of
Environmental Resources Management through Chapter 24 Environmental Protection and
the South Florida Water Management District have set goals to reduce per capita water
consumption. The City promotes strategies to reduce water consumption through its land
development regulations, public information programs, and ongoing coordination with
these agencies. Moreover, the Florida Building Code requires water conserving fixtures.
Update refurence to date.
In order to further evaluate the City's success in achieving Objective 11-1.4, a brief
assessment of whether or not the supporting policies (11-1.4.1 through 11-1.4.3) have been

17. Conservation Objective 5
Objective 5 of the Conservation and Coastal Management Element Conservation
Subsection is as follows: "To reduce per capita water consumption rates by at least 10%
through 2005."
For each objective, the Comprehensive Plan identifies a monitoring measure. The
monitoring measure for this objective is as follows: "Per capita water consumption."
185
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
Information that would allow precise measurement of this Objective specific to the City
does not exist. However, Miami-Dade County's 2003 Comprehensive Development
Master Plan Evaluation and Appraisal Report indicates that gallons per capita per day has
declined in the County from 179 in 1995 to 159 in 2002, an II percent decrease. Due to
this being a more regional issue, the Miami-Dade Water and Sewer Department through
Chapter 32 Water and Sewer Regulations, the Miami-Dade County Department of
Environmental Resources Management through Chapter 24 Environmental Protection and
the South Florida Water Management District have set goals to reduce per capita water
consumption. The City promotes strategies to reduce water consumption through its land
development regulations, public information programs, and ongoing coordination with
these agencies. Moreover, the Florida Building Code requires water conserving fixtures.
Update reference to date.
In order to further evaluate the City's success in achieving Objective CCMC-5, a brief
assessment of whether or not the supporting policies (CCMC-5.1 through CCMC-5.4) have

There is no monitoring measure identified for this objective in the Comprehensive Plan.
However, the City, in conjunction with such regulatory agencies as the Miami-Dade
County Department of Environmenta[ Resources Management, South Florida Water
Management District, Biscayne Bay Management Committee, Florida Department of
Environmental Protection, and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, works to reduce point and
non-point source pollutant loading into surfuce waters. The City complies with the
requirements of its National Pollutant Discharge Elimination Permit with the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency in operating its sanitary storm sewer discharge system.
As noted in Miami-Dade County's EAR, the Miami-Dade County Department of
Environmental Resources Management is working with the Florida Department of
Environmental Protection on the establishment of anti-degradation targets, but these targets
have yet to be promulgated. The Miami-Dade EAR further states that while water quality
data obtained through the Biscayne Bay Partnership Initiative and the Biscayne Bay
Surface Water Quality Monitoring Program indicates that the quality of Biscayne Bay
waters remains high, the quality of discharge waters remains suspect, and that the impacts
of programs designed to reduce pollutant loading into the Bay will not be known until the

199
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
A. Population Changes, Vacant Land, Changes in Land Area, and Location of
Development in Relation to Aventura Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan
With a 2000 population of 25,267, Aventura is the eighth most populous municipality in
Miami-Dade County. Although it was not incorporated until 1995, between 1990 and
2000, the City's population increased from 15,375 to 25,267, a 67 percent increase. The
cities of Hialeah Gardens and Medley are the only municipalities in Miami-Dade County
that grew at a faster rate during that period. By 2010, the City's population is anticipated to
increase to 32,925, an increase of30 percent since 2000. By 2015, it is projected that its
population will increase to 37,307 (48% above the 2000 Census), and by 2025, it is
projected that it will increase to 46,329 (83% above the 2000 Census)36. It should be
noted, however, that these estimates are based on historic and current population figures
and growth trends, and do not reflect local conditions. The City is rapidly approaching
build-out, and its future development potential and population growth is limited by the
scarcity of vacant and developable land. For these reasons, the City estimates that its
population will cap out at around 32,925, the year 2010 population estimate.
Figure 11.A.4. and Table II.A.4. in Chapter II.A. identifY the location and status of the
104.5 acres of vacant land in the City. Because the remainder of the City is already
developed, it is anticipated that most of the future development and redevelopment in the
City will occur on these parcels. Please see Chapter II.A. for more discussion.
Although the development and redevelopment that has occurred in the City has been
generally consistent with the City's adopted Future Land Use Plan Map, there have been a
number of amendments to the Map since the last EAR. These Map changes are
administered as per the procedures outlined in Article IV., "Comprehensive Plan", of the
land development regulations. Large-scale applications to amend the CNP are accepted
semiannually. The City reviews and analyzes the application, and prepares a
recommendation to the designated local planning agency, the City Commission. The City
Commission, acting as the LPA and final decision making body, conducts the required
public hearings. The City adheres to State requirements in its Comprehensive Plan
amendment process.
Since the date of adoption, there have been 12 amendments to the Comprehensive Plan's
Future Land Use Plan Map, totaling 66.76 acres. A total of: 5.66 acres were amended from
MediumlHigh Density Residential to Business and Office; 1.99 acres were amended from
MediumlHigh Density Residential to Town Center; 9.49 acres were amended from
Medium Density Residential to Business and Office; 7.42 acres were amended from Town
Center to Business and Office; 15.44 acres were amended from Parks and Recreation to
Business and Office; 2.85 acres were amended from Industrial and Office to Medium/High
Density Residential; 3.4 acres were amended from Business and Office to Parks and
Recreation, and; 12.65 acres were amended from Business and Office to Medium High
Density Residential.

B. Level of Service Analysis and Financial Feasibility
The City of Aventura has adopted Level of service standards in its Comprehensive Plan.
Through the implementation section of the Capital Improvement Element of the
Comprehensive Plan, the City ensures that future land development regulations and City
policies are consistent with the City's ability to provide the capital facilities required to
maintain adopted Level of Service Standards, including those needed to maintain or
enhance the quality of life within the city.
As noted in its Comprehensive Plan Capital Improvements Element, the City's Capital
Improvement Program delineates the City's capital needs for designated planning periods.
The Capital Improvement Program is amended on an annual basis, and the first year of the
Capital Improvement Program is adopted into the City's annual Capital Budget. The City's
adopted Capital Improvements Program, which identifies capital projects, funding,
location, and the projected schedule, is included into this document as Appendix B. The
Capital Improvements Program includes current and future projects for a five year planning
period, including the amount and source of funding, and establishes priorities for future
capital projects. Although projects beyond the five year planning period are not identified
in the Capital Improvements Program, the City does evaluate projected deficiencies that
might exist beyond the planning period. As noted below, future transportation deficiencies
are projected to exist by 2025. Please see 111.0. for more information.
1. Sanitary Sewer
LOS Standard - Systems wastewater treatment plans shall operate with a physical capacity
of no less than average daily sewage flow; effluent shall meet all federal, State and County
standards; system capacity shall collectively maintain capacity to collect and dispose of
102 percent of average daily per capita sewage system demand for previous five years.
The sanitary sewer network within the City of A ventura is an interconnected county-wide
system. The City cooperates with Miami-Dade County W ASAD to jointly develop
methodologies and procedures for biannually updating estimates of system demand and
capacity.
According to the County's 2003 Evaluation and Appraisal Report, in 2003 the systemwide
capacity of the County's wastewater treatment system was 352.50 million gallons per day,
which exceeded average daily demand of 310.81 million gallons per day. Moreover, the
County has maintained adequate system capacity to meet demand between 1995 and 2005.
The County has programmed $1.3 billion in capital sanitary sewer projects to ensure its
ability to continue to provide the capacity needed to address existing and projected demand
for sanitary sewer service.37
The City, through its permitting processes and land development regulations, and
coordination with the County, ensures that adequate wastewater transmission capacity

City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
exists to serve new development and redevelopment. Moreover, the City analyzes impacts
of certain development proposals (rezonings, changes in Future Land Use designations,
etc.) through the performance of concurrency management analyses as per the Concurrency
Management System. The City has met its Level of Service Standard for sanitary sewer
between the date of adoption and 2005, and has not had to delay or prohibit development or
redevelopment due to sanitary sewer capacity issues. The County's programmed capital
improvements and the City's continued implementation of land development regulations,
permitting processes, and the concurrency management system should ensure that the
adopted Sanitary Sewer Level of Service Standard is met through the planning periods.
The City does not anticipate any problems in meeting its sanitary sewer Level of Service
standard by 2015 or 2025.
2. Potable Water Transmission Capacity
LOS Standard - Treatment system shall operate with a rated maximum daily capacity
which is no less than 2 percent above maximum daily flow for preceding year, and an
average daily capacity two percent above the average daily per capita system demand for
the preceding five years. Water shall be delivered to users at a pressure no less than 20
pounds per square inch and no greater than 100 pounds per square inch. Minimum Fire
Flow standards - Single Family Estate Density (n/a) - 500 gallons per minute (gpm);
Single Family and Duplex Residential on Minimum Lots if 7,599 s.f. (n/a) - 750 gpm;
Multi-Family Residential - 1,500 gpm; Hospital/Schools - 2,000 gpm; Business and
Industry - 3,000 gpm. Water quality shall meet all federal, State and County primary
standards for potable water. Systemwide storage capacity for finished water shall equal no
less than 15 percent of systemwide average daily demand.
The potable water network within the City of A ventura is an interconnected county-wide
system. The City cooperates with Miami-Dade County W ASAD, the North Miami Beach
Water and Sewer Department, and Miami-Dade Fire Rescue to jointly develop
methodologies and procedures for biannually updating estimates of system demand and
capacity, and to ensure sufficient capacity to serve development needs.
According to Miami-Dade County's 2003 Evaluation and Appraisal Reporf8, in 2003 the
capacity of Miami-Dade County's water system was 454.77 million gallons per day, which
exceeded average daily demand of 346.10 million gallons per day and provided adequate
capacity to meet and exceed the City's Level of Service standard. The EAR further
reported that no areas of fire flow deficiency existed in the City of Aventura. Miami-Dade
County currently has programmed $883 million in water capital improvements projects in
order to ensure its ability to continue to provide the capacity needed to address existing and
projected demand for potable water. Based on this information, the City does not
anticipate any problems in meeting and exceeding its potable water Level of Service
standard by 2015 or 2025.

redevelopment due to potable water capacity issues. The County's programmed capital
improvements and the City's continued implementation of land development regulations,
permitting processes, and the concurrency management system should ensure that the
adopted Potable Water Level of Service Standard is met through the planning periods. The
City does not anticipate any problems in meeting its Potable Water Level of Service
standard by2015 or 2025.
Chapter 163, Florida Statutes, requires the preparation ofa 10-year Water Supply Facilities
Workplan by local governments with water supply facility responsibilities. The City does
not have water supply responsibilities, as it receives its water supply through the Miami-
Dade Water and Sewer Department and the City of North Miami Beach Water and Sewer
Department. Therefore, the City will support Miami-Dade County and the City of North
Miami Beach in their implementation of the Water Supply Facilities Workplan requirement
as appropriate, and other County and City of North Miami Beach efforts to ensure that the
City's water supply needs are met.
3. Recreation and Open Space
LOS Standard - 2.75 acres of public parks per 1,000 residents
In order to determine the amount of recreation and open space that is available for use by
residents for concurrency purposes, the City counts public parks at 100 percent, private
recreation facilities at 50 percent, and marinas and golf course at 25 percent. Based on this
formula, the City's existing recreation and open space acreage is 114. The City is therefore
exceeding its recreation and open space Level of Service standard by 38.4 acres.
The City has met its Level of Service Standard for recreation open space between the date
of adoption and 2005, and has not had to delay or prohibit development or redevelopment
due to recreation and open space issues. The City anticipates that it will continue to meet
this standard through 2025 through the acquisition of required park land and open space
through its Parks Impact Fee, general funds, grants, and other methods. Moreover, the City
analyzes impacts of certain development proposals (rezonings, changes in Future Land Use
designations, etc.) through the performance of concurrency management analyses as per the
Concurrency Management System. Please see Chapter II.E. for more information.
203
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
4. Solid Waste Collection Capacity
The County Solid Waste Management System, which includes County-owned solid waste
disposal facilities and those operated under contract with the County for disposal, shall, for
a minimum of five years, collectively maintain a solid waste disposal capacity sufficient to
accommodate waste flows committed to the system through long-range inter local
agreements or contracts with municipalities and private waste haulers and anticipated non-
committed waste flows.
The City requires that developers contract with private waste haulers for solid waste
disposal services. Miami-Dade County provides the disposal facilities for solid waste
collected in the City. According to the County's 2003 Evaluation and Appraisal Report,
the County's existing solid waste disposal system has the capacity to meet solid waste
disposal demand through 20 I I. The County has programmed $75.83 million in capital
solid waste disposal projects to address existing and projected demand, and to further
expand capacity. The City has met its Level of Service Standard for solid waste between
the date of adoption and 2005, and has not had to delay or prohibit development or
redevelopment due to solid waste collection capacity issues. The City therefore does not
anticipate any problems in meeting its solid waste Level of Service standard by 2015 or
2025.
The City, through its permitting processes, land development regulations, and concurrency
management system, ensures that adequate solid waste collection capacity exists to meet
the adopted Level of Service Standard. Moreover, the City analyzes impacts of certain
development proposals (rezonings, changes in Future Land Use designations, etc.) through
the performance of concurrency management analyses as per the Concurrency
Management System.
5. Drainage
LOS Standard - The City's drainage Level of Service standard contains both a flood
protection and water quality component. The minimum acceptable flood protection Level
of Service standards for A ventura shall be protection from the degree of flooding that
would result for a duration of one day from a ten year storm, with exceptions in previously
developed canal basins where additional development to this base standard would pose
risks to existing development. All structures shall have the lowest floor, including
basement, elevated no lower than one foot above the level of the base flood elevation or
eighteen inches above the highest point of the adjacent road crown elevation, whichever is
higher. The Water Quality Level of Service standard shall be met when the average annual
for each of the identified National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System pollutants does
not exceed the target criteria for such pollutants within a canal basin or sub-basin.
Under the City's Concurrency Management System, jssuance of any development permit
shall require compliance with the drainage Level of Service Standard while incorporating
water quality considerations in accordance with the City's NPDES permit. Moreover, the
City analyzes impacts of certain development proposals (rezonings, changes in Future Land
204
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
Use designations, etc.) through the performance of concurrency management analyses as
per the Concurrency Management System. The City has met its Level of Service Standard
for drainage between the date of adoption and 2005, and has not had to delay or prohibit
development or redevelopment due to drainage issues. The City therefore does not
anticipate any problems in meeting its drainage standard by 2015 or 2025.
The City, in conjunction with such regulatory agencies as the Miami-Dade County
Department of Environmental Resources Management, South Florida Water Management
District, Biscayne Bay Management Committee, Florida Department of Environmental
Protection, and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, works to reduce point and non-point source
pollutant loading into surface waters. The City complies with the requirements of its
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination Permit with the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency in operating its sanitary storm sewer discharge system.
As noted in Miami-Dade County's EAR, the Miami-Dade County Department of
Environmental Resources Management is working with the Florida Department of
Environmental Protection on the establishment of anti-degradation targets, but these targets
have yet to be promulgated. The Miami-Dade EAR further states that while water quality
data obtained through the Biscayne Bay Partnership Initiative and the Biscayne Bay
Surface Water Quality Monitoring Program indicates that the quality of Biscayne Bay
waters remains high, the quality of discharge waters remains suspect, and that the impacts
of programs designed to reduce pollutant loading into the Bay will not be known until the
next EAR cycle.
6. Traffic Circulation
The City's adopted Level of Service standards for transportation are: a minimum peak
period LOS of E on State and City roads where no public mass transit exists; where mass
transit having headways of 20 minutes or less is provided, roadways shall operate at no
greater than 120 percent of their capacity, and; where extraordinary transit service such as
commuter rail or express bus service exists, parallel roadways within y, mile shall operate
at no greater than 150 percent oftheir capacity.
An express bus service is provided in the City between Aventura Mall and Golden Glades,
and along Biscayne Boulevard. The Level of Service standards for roadways are based on
the following definitions:
. LOS A - free flow traffic operations at average travel speeds;
· LOS B - stable flow with other users in traffic stream;
· LOS C - uncongested with other users causing significant interactions;
. LOS D - congested stable flow with major delays;
· LOS E - very congested with traffic at or near capacity, and;
· LOS F - extremely congested with breakdown flows.
In order to determine the current levels of service on roadways in A ventura, level of service
information was taken from the Miami Dade County MPO 2030 Long Rang Transportation
Plan, which is the official transportation planning document for Miami-Dade County. It
205
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
specifies all transportation projects to be planned, designed or constructed within this time
horizon. It utilizes a complex modeling structure which integrates the most recent Census
data and traffic information. It then distributes and projects trips, volumes and levels of
service in the future. A new LRTP is developed every five years. This becomes the basis
for determining and prioritizing transportation needs. To be eligible for federal dollars,
projects must first be part of this plan.
Information indicates that at the time of the counts: Ives Dairy Road was operating at LOS
F, William Lehman Causeway was operating at LOS B, Biscayne Boulevard was operating
at LOS F, and Country Club Drive, Aventura Boulevard, Waterways Boulevard, and NE
34th A venue, were all operating at LOS B or better. Overal~ this examination determined
that there is capacity remaining on the roadway network (nearly an extra travel lane's
worth, or 2,000 trips). Nonetheless, based on the most recent available data, the City is not
meeting its roadway Level of Service standards on Biscayne Boulevard or Ives Dairy Road.
Figure III.D.I in Chapter 11.0. shows the projected levels of service on the city's roadways
during the planning period. As can be seen, it is projected that by 2030: William Lehman
Causeway will be operating at LOS B; Aventura Boulevard will be at LOS 0, and; Country
Club Drive will be mainly at LOS E, with the links approaching the William Lehman
Causeway at LOS F. NE 34th Avenue will be at LOS F and Waterways Boulevard will be
at LOS E. Ives Dairy Road and Biscayne Boulevard will continue to operate at LOS F.
Therefore, it is projected that the City will not be meeting its roadway Level of Service
standards for portions of Country Club Drive, Ives Dairy Road, or Biscayne Boulevard in
2030.
Miami-Dade County's Urban Infill Area (UIA), which includes the City of Aventura, is
designated as a Transportation Concurrency Exemption Area, and is exempt from
transportation concurrency requirements. The City has therefore not had to delay or
prohibit development or redevelopment due to transportation concurrency issues between
the date of adoption and 2005. Please see Chapter II.D. for the City's recommendation to
address its traffic circulation Level of Service during the planning period.
7. Mass Transit
The City accepts Miami-Dade County's Mass Transit Level of Service as stated in the
1997 CDMP Capital Improvements Element and Mass Transit Subelement, which states:
the average combined population and employment density along the corridor between the
existing transit network and area of expansion exceeds 4,000 per square mile, and the
corridor is .05 miles on either side of the necessary new route extensions of the area for
expansion; it is warranted that there is sufficient demand to warrant service; the service is
economically feasible, and; the expansion to transit services into new areas is not
detrimental to existing or planned services in higher density areas with greater need.
Miami-Dade County's Mass Transit Level of Service standards has been updated to state
that al areas within the Urban Development Boundary with a combined resident and work-
force population of more than 10,000 persons per square mile shall be provided with
206
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
minimum peak-hour mass transit service having 60-minute headways and an average route-
spacing of one mile. According to the County's 2003 Evaluation and Appraisal Report, all
areas of Miami-Dade County, including the City of A ventura, are meting or exceeding the
adopted LOS standard for mass transit. The City has met its Level of Service Standard for
mass transit between the date of adoption and 2005, and has not had to delay or prohibit
development or redevelopment due to mass transit capacity issues. The City does not
anticipate any problems in meeting its mass transit Level of Service standard by 2015 or
2025.
8. Police Protection
The City's Police Protection Level of Service Standard does not include numerical
measures, but references establishment of Police Impact Fee. As noted in Chapter II.E.,
between 1997 and 2005 the number of sworn police officers in the City of A ventura
increased from 49 to 76. The City's crime rate has decreased rapidly during that period, as
is demonstrated on Table II.E.3 in Chapter II.E.
In order to maintain and improve the quality of its police services, and ensure that new
development pays its fair share for increased police services that will be necessitated by
such development, the City collects a Police Fee as per Article IV., Division 5 of its Code
of Ordinances. Under these requirements, developers must pay $96.47 per residential unit
and $.140 per square foot of non-residential development. Between FY 04 and FY 09, it is
projected that the police impact fee will generate revenues of$614,250. These funds are
earmarked for capital outlay items such as new equipment necessitated by increased
demand.
The City has met its Level of Service Standard for police protection between the date of
adoption and 2005, and has not had to delay or prohibit development or redevelopment due
to police protection issues. The City does not anticipate any problems in meeting its police
protection Level of Service standard by 2015 or 2025.
9. Fire Protection
The City's Fire Protection Level of Service Standard is the County's standard for the
provision of fire-rescue services to the City. As noted in Chapter II.E., fire service in the
City of Aventura is provided by the Miami-Dade County Fire Rescue Department. The
City coordinates with the County in order to maintain and improve the quality of fire
rescues service that it provides to the City and its residents. The average fire rescue
response time in Miami-Dade County is currently estimated to be between eight and nine
minutes. The average response time in the City is six to eight minutes.39

C. Coordination of Land Use and Public School Planning
The City of A ventura has coordinated its Comprehensive Plan with existing and planned
public schools as per statutory requirements since the date of adoption. As prescribed, the
School Board would provide the City with a letter asking for a finding of consistency with
the Comprehensive Plan before acquisition of school sites within the City, and the City
would respond in the required timeframe. Additionally, the School Board has provided the
City with copies of its Five Year Plans.
1. Interlocal Agreement for Joint Public School Facility Planning
In February 2003 the City, along with 28 other municipalities, Miami-Dade County and
Miami-Dade County Public Schools entered into the Inter/oea/ Agreement for Public
School Facility Planning In Miami-Dade County. This far-reaching collaborative
agreement, which was mandated by Sections 163.31777 and 1013.33 of the Florida
Statutes, allows for better coordination in the educational facilities decision making
process.
Key requirements of the 1nterlocal Agreement40 are outlined as follows:
· The establishment of a staff working group comprised of the County
Mayor/Manager and/or his designee, the School Board Superintendent and/or his
designee, and City Mayors/Managers and their designees to meet on an annual basis
to: discuss issues and formulate recommendations regarding public school issues;
provide M-DCPS with input and recommendations on the Educational Facilities
Plan, Educational Plant Survey, and the need for new facilities and expansion,
renovation, and closure of existing facilities; and to identiJY opportunities for the
co-location and/or shared-use of civic and school facilities.
· The coordination of a joint annual workshop with elected officials of the School
Board, County, and municipalities to discuss public school issues.
· The development of coordinated projections of the amount, type, and distribution of
population growth.
· Expansion ofM-DCPS' standing School Site Planning and Construction Committee
by four (4) voting members to include "a floating member of the most impacted
municipality to which the agenda item relates", a "representative appointed by the
Miami-Dade County League of Cities", a representative from Miami-Dade County,
and "a member of the residential building industry".
40 Interlocal Agreement for Public Scbool Facility Planning in Miami-Dade County, 3/05/03
208
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
. The County and municipalities must invite a non-voting representative appointed by
the School Board to attend meetings of the local planning agencies at which
development requests that will impact public school enrollments are considered.
· The County and municipalities must notifY M-DCPS of proposed land use
applications and development proposals that affect student enrollment.
2. Charter Schools
In 1996, the State of Florida enacted legislation that provided for the creation of charter
schools, non-profit corporations that are typically operated by a group of parents, teachers,
an organization, a municipality, universities, and/or a combination of more than one group.
There are many reasons to establish a charter school but as outlined in the Board Rule the
major reasons are: to improve student learning, to increase learning opportunities for all
students with special emphasis on expanded learning experiences for academically low
achieving students; to encourage use of innovative learning methods; to increase choices of
learning opportunities for students; to establish a new form of accountability for schools; to
require the measurement oflearning outcomes and create innovative measurement tools; to
make the school the unit for improvement; and to create new professional opportunities for
teachers.41
A charter school is bound by the requirements of Sections 228.056, 230.22 and .23, Florida
Statutes and Miami-Dade County School Board Rule 6Gxl3.6A.I.47 and must be reviewed
and approved by the School Board. They are also fully recognized public schools.
On August 25, 2003, the Aventura City of Excellence Charter School opened as the first
municipally sponsored charter school in Miami-Dade County. Located at 3333 NE 188
Street, the A ventura City of Excellence Charter School serves up to 600 students between
kindergarten and fifth grade. In its short history the school has become an important
component of the community, and a source of great civic pride. Its success is evidenced by
a return rate of over 99 percent and A rating. The school operates as a City Department,
and its Principal reports to the City Manager. The school demonstrates the City's
commitment to ensuring the quality of life of existing and future residents. The City is
currently expanding the A ventura City of Excellence Charter School to serve 6th grade
students by 2005, 7'h grade students by 2006, and 8th grade students by 2007 increasing the
student capacity to 900.
3. Miami-Dade County Working Group on Public Scbools Overcrowding Relief
The City of A ventura faces a number of specific challenges regarding public schools. As a
result of current development and redevelopment trends, the City's population is
expanding, as is the demand for school facilities. A number of the County's school
facilities are overcrowded, and new schools cannot be provided quickly enough to meet the
demand for new student stations. As noted earlier, the City has few remaining vacant and
41 The School Board of Miami-Dade County, Florida Board Rules
209
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
developable parcels, which limits the availability of land for new school construction. In
response to the overcrowding problem that is plaguing many County schools, in September
2003 Miami-Dade County and the Miami-Dade School Board established the Miami-Dade
County Working Group on Public Schools Overcrowding Relief.
In October 2004, the task force adopted a final report for submission to the Miami-Dade
Board of County Commissioners and School Board. Key recommendations include:
levying additional documentary stamp fees on the sale or resale of homes for school
construction; exempting the cost of a parking garage from the cost per student station
restriction when building a new facility; establishing criteria for allowing the conversion of
non-school structures into public education facilities; revising the educational "amenities"
that are required at public schools to save time, money and space; siting schools along
existing and future transit corridors; pursuing Educational Facilities Benefit Districts in
areas of substantial growth; and periodic review of the County Educational Facilities
Impact Fee Ordinance.
Ofparticular interest to the City of Aventura are strategies to reduce the land requirements
for public schools, which would otherwise preclude new schools from being constructed in
many areas of the City. Allowances for multi-story schools, the location of schools along
transit corridors, promoting the joint use of facilities, and allowing the conversion of non-
school structures into public education facilities are all examples of strategies to provide
new or expanded public schools despite the scarcity of vacant, developable land.
4. Educational Facilities Impact Fee
Miami-Dade County's Educational Facilities Impact Fee imposes an impact fee on new
residential development throughout the County in order to offset some of the costs of
providing student stations to accommodate the additional demand for student stations
created by such development. An ongoing concern with the Educational Facilities Impact
Fee is that the County's three designated benefit districts are too large to ensure that
moneys collected are expended at the schools most directly impacted by the development.
A key recommendation of the Miami-Dade County Working Group on Public Schools
Overcrowding Relief calls for the periodic review of the Public Educational Facilities
Impact Fee Ordinance. Refining the benefit districts to ensure the equitable distribution of
impact fees should be a paramount issue in the City's review ofthe Ordinance.

2. Chapter 163, Florida Statutes
A table indicating the manner in which the City of A ventura is addressing the requirements
of Chapter 163, Florida Statutes, is attached as Appendix D. In July 2005 the State of
Florida adopted additional amendments to Chapter 163 and its growth management
requirements. As demonstrated on Appendix D, the 2005 amendments will necessitate a
number of amendments to the Comprehensive Plan. Please see Chapters II.D. and II.E. for
the City's response to the new requirements regarding Transportation Concurrency
Exception Areas, public school concurrency, and public school fucilities elements. In
addition, the new requirements direct that the City's Capital Improvements Program be
adopted into the Capital Improvements Element, and that the City's Comprehensive Plan
be amended annually to reflect Capital Improvements Program updates. Based on a review
of the Table in Appendix D., including the 2005 amendments, the following additional
Comprehensive Plan amendments are recommended:
a. Future Land Use Element

District Educational Facilities Plan and the 5- Year Workplan, as provided for in the
"Interlocal Agreement for Public School Facility Planning in Miami-Dade County".
This review will include an analysis of the Tentative District Educational Facilities
Plan and the 5-Year Workplan's consistency with the Comprehensive Plan, and the
identification of any necessary Comprehensive Plan amendments.
. The City shall coordinate, as appropriate, with the State of Florida, South Florida
Regional Planning Council, Miami-Dade County Public Schools, and other
agencies in the adoption of a Public Schools Element, in accordance with the
established schedule, into the Comprehensive Plan. Areas to be addressed in the
Public Schools Element include, but are not limited to, public school concurrency
requirements, coordination with other jurisdiction in the development and
implementation of uniform school concurrency procedures, proportionate share
school impact mitigation options for developers, the collocation of schools with
other public facilities, the location of schools proximate to residential areas, the use
of schools as emergency shelters, the location of existing and planned school
facilities (including maps).

4. Strategic Regional Policy Plan for South Florida
As noted above, Section 163.3191 requires that the Evaluation and Appraisal Report
evaluate relevant changes in growth management laws, including the South Florida
Regional Planning Council's Strategic Regional Policy Plan of South Florida (SRPPSF),
which was adopted on June 7, 2004 and became effective on July 7, 2004. Appendix F

E. Impacts of Density Reductions in Coastal Higb Hazard Areas
Section 163.3191(2)(1), F.S., requires that local governments "evaluate whether past
reductions in land use densities in coastal high hazard areas have impaired property rights
of current residents where redevelopment occurs". The City of Aventura is not located
within the Coastal High Hazard Area, with the exception of the Island Estates area located
adjacent to Williams Island on two islands extending into the Intracoastal Waterway (see
the portions of the City located in Zone A on Figure 1I,C.1). The westernmost island is
currently developed with 22 single family estate homes, The easternmost island is currently
vacant, but has vested rights agreements for 17 units per gross acre. Both islands are
designated Medium High Density Residential on the Comprehensive Plan's Future Land
Use Plan Map, and are zoned RS-2 (Residential Single Family), The City shall not
approve any development applications that would serve to increase density of this
development beyond what exists or is allowed by current zoning and/or vested rights. No
density reductions that have adversely impacted property rights have occurred or are
projected to occur on these islands.

City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
F. Evaluation of Multimodal Transportation District and the Need for Developing
a Common Methodology for Measuring Transportation Impacts
Section 163.3191(2)(0), F.S., requires that local governments evaluate the extent to which
the multi-modal transportation district has been successful in achieving its purpose. As
noted in Chapter II.D., the City of Aventura is located within Miami-Dade County's Urban
Infill Area (UIA), which is designated as a Transportation Concurrency Exemption Area,
and is exempt from transportation concurrency requirements. The City has therefore not
had to delay or prohibit development or redevelopment due to transportation concurrency
issues between 1995 and 2005. In this regard, the Transportation Concurrency Exception
Area has been successful in achieving one of its purposes; allowing development and
redevelopment in established infill areas where infrastructure is in place, despite the
cOngested roadway conditions that often exist in such areas.
The City's adopted Level of Service standards for transportation are: a minimum peak
period LOS of E on State and City roads where no public mass transit exists; where mass
transit having headways of 20 minutes or less is provided, roadways shall operate at no
greater than 120 percent of their capacity, and; where extraordinary transit service such as
commuter rail or express bus service exists, parallel roadways within Y, mile shall operate
at no greater than 150 percent of their capacity. An express bus service is provided in the
City between Aventura Mall and Golden Glades, and along Biscayne Boulevard. The
Level of Service standards for roadways are based on the following definitions:
· LOS A - free flow traffic operations at average travel speeds;
· LOS B - stable flow with other users in traffic stream;
. LOS C - uncongested with other users causing significant interactions;
· LOS D - congested stable flow with major delays;
· LOS E - very congested with traffic at or near capacity, and;
. LOS F - extremely congested with breakdown flows.
In order to determine the current levels of service on roadways in Aventura, level of service
information was taken from the Miami Dade County MPO 2030 Long Rang Transportation
Plan, which is the official transportation planning document for Miami-Dade County. It
specifies all transportation projects to be planned, designed or constructed within this time
horizon. It utilizes a complex modeling structure which integrates the most recent Census
data and traffic information. It then distributes and projects trips, volumes and levels of
service in the future. A new LRTP is developed every five years. This becomes the basis
for determining and prioritizing transportation needs. To be eligible for federal dollars,
projects must first be part of this plan.
Information indicates that at the time of the counts: Ives Dairy Road was operating at LOS
F, William Lehman Causeway was operating at LOS B, Biscayne Boulevard was operating
at LOS F, and Country Club Drive, Aventura Boulevard, Waterways Boulevard, and NE
34th Avenue, were all operating at LOS B or better. Overall, this examination determined
that there is capacity remaining on the roadway network (nearly an extra travel lane's
218
City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
worth, or 2,000 trips). Nonetheless, based on the most recent available data, the City is not
meeting its roadway Level of Service standards on Biscayne Boulevard or Ives Dairy Road.
By 2030: William Lehman Causeway will be operating at LOS B; Aventura Boulevard will
be at LOS D, and; Country Club Drive will be mainly at LOS E, with the links
approaching the William Lehman Causeway at LOS F. NE 34th Avenue will be at LOS F
and Waterways Boulevard will be at LOS E. Ives Dairy Road and Biscayne Boulevard will
continue to operate at LOS F. Therefore, it is projected that the City will not be meeting its
roadway Level of Service standards for portions of Country Club Drive, Ives Dairy Road,
or Biscayne Boulevard in 2030.
The City's existing transportation system is comprised of more than roadways. Mass
transit service in the City is provided by the Miami-Dade Transit Authority through express
and regular bus service (Figure II.D.2)42, and by the City of Aventura through its internal
shuttle bus service (Figure 11.0.3). The City of Aventura's shuttlebus service boasts an
average monthly ridership of 9,000, and has had a total ridership of 457,138 since its
inception in 199943. Bicycles and pedestrian paths/sidewalks are another important
component of the City's transportation system. The City provides sidewalks along most
major roadways, and major bicycle and pedestrian paths along Country Club Drive around
the Turnberry Golf Course and along NE 187 Street. In addition, there are many
waterways in the City that provide opportunities for recreational boating. Although there
is no water taxi service in the City at present, it might be explored as a future option for
trips within the City, and between the City and other waterfront locales. These projects
demonstrate the City's commitment to providing a multi-modal transportation system, in
accordance with its Transportation Concurrency Exception Area.
Section 163.3191(2)(p), F.S. requires an assessment of the extent to which changes are
needed to adopt a common methodology for measuring impacts on transportation facilities
among municipalities and counties. As noted in Chapter II.D., by 2006 the City shall
measure the impacts of proposed development and redevelopment on its multi-modal
transportation system, in accordance with S. 163.3180, F.S. The City shall coordinate with
FDOT, Miami-Dade County, and other jurisdictions in the County in the identification of
changes that are needed in order to develop of common methodologies for measuring such
impacts. Additional coordination and analysis is needed in order to determine the nature
and extent of specific changes.

. ensure appropriate transitions and linkages between different neighborhoods and
uses;
. encourage more walkable neighborhoods;
· buffer neighborhoods and existing development from the encroachment of
incompatible uses;
. limit the intensity of future development and redevelopment in a manner that is
consistent with current development patterns, and that minimizes further negative
impacts to the City's infrastructure, traffic congestion, hurricane evacuation
clearance times, and quality of life, and;
· prevent redevelopment of a parcel in a manner that would significantly increase its
existing intensity or density, unless redevelopment of said parcel will implement
specific development and redevelopment goals that are or that might be established
for particular areas.
Recommendation LU-2. Policy 1.1 defines the City's residential land categories. It is
recommended that Policy 1.1 be amended to the following:

strategies to:
· accommodate growth while maintaining neighborhood integrity;
· ensure appropriate height and site development requirements and design guidelines;
· ensure appropriate transitions and linkages between different neighborhoods and
uses;
· encourage more walkable neighborhoods;
· buffer neighborhoods and existing development from the encroachment of
incompatible uses;
· limit the intensity of future development and redevelopment in a manner that is
consistent with current development patterns, and that minimizes further negative
impacts to the City's infrastructure, traffic congestion, hurricane evacuation
clearance times, and quality of life, and;
· prevent redevelopment of a parcel in a manner that would significantly increase its
existing intensity or density, unless redevelopment of said parcel will implement
specific development and redevelopment goals that are or that might be established
for particular areas.
Recommendation R-2. The City shall coordinate with the private sector and other
agencies as appropriate, to implement strategies to market the City of Aventura as a
location for new businesses, promote the retention and expansion of existing
businesses, ensure an adequate supply of non-residential land uses to address economic
development goals, provide services and employment opportunities to existing and
future residents, and coordinate economic development, development, and
redevelopment goals;
Recommendation R-3. By 2007, the City shall refine development/design guidelines
through the land development regulations for the Town Center that provides for its
redevelopment as a design-unified downtown that primarily serves City residents. The
Town Center shall be characterized by a mixture of different urban functions integrated
horizontally and vertically, multi-modal transportation access and circulation, and high
quality urban design;
Recommendation R-4. By 2007, the City shall review and amend its land
development regulations in order to reduce potential development/redevelopment
intensities on the Biscayne Boulevard corridor. The City should also evaluate
strategies to improve the Biscayne Boulevard corridor through cohesive design and
development patterns, and appropriate redevelopment.

City of A ventura 2005 Evaluation and Appraisal Report
CHAPTER VI. PUBLIC PARTICIPATION SUMMARY
In 1998, the State of Florida revised the statutory requirements for the EAR to allow local
governments to base their analysis on the key local issues that they are facing. In order to
comply with these requirements, and in recognition of the complicated and diverse range of
planning issues that the City of Aventura is currently facing, the City initiated its EAR
process with a public workshop on December 16, 2004, and conducted an interagency
scoping meeting with members of State, regional and County agencies and representatives
of adjacent municipalities on December 20, 2004. A Local Planning Agency Workshop
was conducted on April 25, 2005.
Based on input received via this process, the City of Aventura identified six major issues
for inclusion in the EAR. On January 14, 2005 the City provided the Florida Department
of Community Affairs (DCA) with a request for a Letter of Understanding regarding these
issues, and the City's proposed Scope of Work (Appendix A). On February 2,2005, DCA
provided the City with a Letter of Understanding agreeing to the proposed issues and
Scope.

Enclosed herein is the proposed City of Aventura Capital Improvement Program
(CIP) for the fiscal period October 1, 2005 through September 30,2010 and the
proposed Capital Budget for the Fiscal period October 1, 2005 through
September 30, 2006.
This document represents an update of the CIP that was originally prepared for
the five year cycle of 2004 to 2009. 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 were reevaluated in light of unanticipated
needs, cost revisions, new project priorities and the financial condition of the City.
In addition, the CIP was updated to add new projects in the fifth year (2009/10) to
complete the cycle. Projects included within the framework of the program were
based on input from Commissioners, staff, City consultants and citizens.
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. The facilities and service provided by the City
government are intended to offer the greatest citizen benefit and reflects the
City's identified needs, desires, and financial capabilities.
It is important to stress that the CIP is a planning tool to evaluate infrastructure
needs of the City as well as the financial capabilities of the City. In order to
determine the impact of the CIP on the City's future operating budget, the City
Commission and residents will be provided with the benefits of a CIP document
which serves as a point of reference and includes an estimated long-term budget
plan.
Each year the CIP document will be updated and an additional fiscal year will be
added to complete the cycle. The CIP thus becomes a continuing and ongoing
process.
The following represents the significant revisions or modifications to the
proposed CIP compared to the prior document:
. Added Founders Park Improvements - $415,000.
. Added Miami Gardens Drive Extension Upgrades- $300,000.
. Added Country Club Drive Tennis Court Improvements - $70,000.
. Added NE 20yth Street Beautification Upgrades- $60,000.
. Added Yacht Club Drive Seawall Improvements - $100,000.
. Added NE 29th Street Lighting Improvements - $140,000.
. Added NE 190th Street Resurfacing - $140,000.
. Added Hospital District Road Resurfacing - $300,000
The proposed 2005 - 2010 Capital Improvement Program includes 22 projects in
5 functional categories with a total value of $14,294,037. The following
represents the percentage of total funding that each functional category has been
allocated: Beautification & Parks Facilities (38%), Transportation, Drainage and
Infrastructure Improvements (28%), Capital Equipment Purchase and
Replacement (18%), Information/Communication Technology (15%) and Public
Buildings and Facilities Improvements (1%).
Major emphasis was placed on the following projects:
. Waterways Park Development
. Transportation, Street Lighting & Safety Improvements
. Stormwater Drainage Improvements
. Citywide Beautification Improvements
. Park Maintenance Projects
4,350,000
2,540,694
1,465,000
577,000
485,000
In order to improve the 911 response to public safety services in our community,
I have requested the Police Department to study the possibility of establishing
our own E911 system with the Police Communications Center becoming a Public
Safety Answering Point. After the report is complete and if approved by the City
Commission, the revenues and costs associated with the proposed E911 will be
included in future CIP documents.
The program contains a detailed funding plan that forecasts revenues necessary
to fund both the Capital Improvement Program and the operating budgets over
the next five years. The proposed funding plan is based on the assumption that
operating expenditures can be maintained at certain percentage increases and
revenue increases at specified rates.
It is significant to note that the funding plan has little financial impact on residents
and the community. Importantly, it continues to establish an ongoing mechanism
to address the City's infrastructure needs. No increase in the operating ad
valorem tax rate is recommended during the five year period. If operating
expenditures increase at a higher rate than expected, unanticipated events
reduce key revenue sources, or an unforeseen emergency occurs during the five
year period an operating ad valorem tax rate increase may be required. It should
be made clear that the funding plan is based on a series of projections and
assumptions. If events occur that revise the projections and assumptions, the
financing plan will have to be updated and amended.
I am proud of the many accomplishments and the support the City Commission
and residents have shown in the implementation of the capital projects since the
incorporation of the City. Our beautification projects, Government Center,
Community Recreation Center, Charter School, transportation improvements and
many other community enhancements continue to exhibit our commitment to
excellence and professionalism. This document serves many purposes.
Importantly it serves as an aid to the residents in providing a better
understanding of the City's long-term capital needs and how the City intends to
meet these demands. It also details our continuing efforts to address the needs
and concerns of the citizens of Aventura while making prudent financial decisions
which contribute to the City's long term financial health.
The preparation and formulation of this document could not have been
accomplished without the dedicated efforts of all Department Directors and their
staff. Their professional efforts have assisted in the preparation of this important
planning program.
I request and recommend that you take the following actions regarding the
proposed 2005 - 2010 Capital Improvement Program:
1. Hold a workshop to review the CIP document.
2. Transmit copies of the CIP summary document to the public.
3. Hold a public hearing to conceptually adopt the final CIP document, by
resolution, for implementation.
All questions relating to the CIP should be referred to my attention.
Respectfully submitted,
Eric M. Soroka
City Manager

INTRODUCTION
City of Aventura
INTRODUCTION
This section describes what a Capital Improvement Program is and the process for
developing the City of Aventura Capital Improvement Program and Capital Budget. This
introduction also explains how to locate a specific project in this document.
PURPOSE OF THE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
The purpose of the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is to establish a long term plan
of proposed capital expenditures, the means and methods of financing, and a schedule
of priorities for implementation. In order to determine the impact on the City's operating
budget, debt service and the general trend of future expenditures, the City Commission
will be provided with the advantage of a CIP document as a point of reference and
estimated long term budget plan. In accordance with the State's Growth Management
Act, the City is required to undergo this process in order to meet the needs of its
Comprehensive Plan.
The CIP is an official statement of public policy regarding long-range capital
development in the City of Aventura. A capital improvement is defined as a capital
expenditure of $2,500 and office equipment expenditure of $500 or more, resulting in
the acquisition, improvement or addition to fixed assets in the form of land, buildings or
improvements, more or less permanent in character, and durable equipment with a life
expectancy of more than one year.
The CIP lists proposed capital projects to be undertaken, the year in which they will be
started, the amount expected to be expended in each year and the method of financing
these projects. Based on the CIP, a department's capital outlay portion of the annual
Operating Budget will be formulated for that particular year. The CIP document also
communicates to the citizens, businesses and interested parties the City's capital
priorities and plan for implementing projects.
The five-year CIP is updated annually to add new projects in the fifth year, to re-
evaluate the program and project priorities in light of unanticipated needs, and to revise
recommendations to take account of new requirements and new sources of funding.
Capital Improvement programming thus becomes a continuing part of the City's
budgeting and management procedures.
The annual capital programming process provides the following benefits:
1. The CIP is a tool for implementing the City's Comprehensive Plan.
2. The CIP process provides a mechanism for coordinating among projects
with respect to function, location, and timing.
3. The yearly evaluation of project priorities ensures that the most crucial
projects are developed first.

City of Aventura
4. The CIP process facilitates long-range financial planning by matching
estimated revenue against capital needs, establishing capital expenditures
and identifying the need for municipal borrowing and indebtedness within
a sound long-range fiscal framework. The sound fiscal policy that results
from this process will have a positive impact on the City's bond rating.
5. The impact of capital projects on the City's operating budget can be
projected.
6. The CIP serves as a source of information about the City's development
and capital expenditures plan for the public, City operating departments,
and the City Commission.
LEGAL AUTHORITY
A capital programming process to support the comprehensive plan is required by the
Local Government Comprehensive Planning and Land Development Regulations,
incorporated as Chapter 163, Florida Statues.
DEVELOPMENT OF THE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
The City's capital programming process began in December when operating
departments were required to prepare requests for all proposed capital projects
anticipated during the period of 2005 - 2010. A CIP Preparation Manual and related
forms were distributed to all departments for this purpose.
In February, departmental prioritized project requests were submitted to the City
Manager's Office. Department Directors were asked to justify projects in terms of
benefits derived, necessity to health, safety and welfare of the City, enhancement to
City plans and policies, need of residents and funding. Projects were prioritized on the
basis of Urgent, Necessary, Desirable, and Deferrable.
The City Manager reviewed departmental requests and conducted individual meetings
with Department Directors. The departmental requests were prioritized and the five-
year schedule of projects was compiled into document form by the City Manager. The
methods of financing and revenue sources were then prepared by the Finance Support
Services Director and City Manager and were incorporated into the CIP document. At
this point, the proposed CIP is submitted to the City Commission and public for review.
In order to facilitate public involvement, public hearings and community meetings will be
held to unveil and review the CIP document prior to the adoption of a Resolution
approving the CIP in principle.

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM POLICIES
1. Annually, the City will prepare a five-year capital improvement program
analyzing all anticipated capital expenditures and identifying associated
funding sources. Future capital expenditures necessitated by changes in
population, changes in development, growth, redevelopment or changes
in economic base will be calculated and included in the Capital update
process.
2. The City will perform all capital improvements in accordance with an
adopted capital improvement program.
3. The classification of items as capital or operating will be determined by
two criteria - cost and frequency. Generally, a capital project has a "useful
life" of more than one year and a value of $2,500 or more, or for office
equipment $500 or more.
4. The City will coordinate development of the capital improvement budget
with the development of the operating budget. Future operating costs
associated with new capital improvements will be projected and included
in the operating forecasts.
5. The first year of the five-year capital improvement program will be used as
the basis for formal fiscal year appropriations during the annual budget
process.
6. The City will maintain all of its assets at a level adequate to protect the
City's capital investment and to minimize future maintenance and
replacement costs.
7. The City will identify the estimated cost of capital projects and prepare a
funding projection that considers revenues and operating costs to be
included in the Capital Improvement Program document that is submitted
to the City Commission for approval.
8. The City will determine the most appropriate financing method for all new
projects.
9. If appropriate, the City will attempt to maintain a mixed policy of
pay-as-you-go and borrowing against future revenues for financing capital
projects.
10 The City will maintain ongoing maintenance schedules relating to road,
sidewalk and drainage system improvements.
11. The City will address and prioritize infrastructure needs on the basis of
protecting the health, safety and welfare of the community.
12. A CIP preparation calendar shall be established and adhered to.
13. Capital projects will conform to the City's Comprehensive Plan.
14. Long-term borrowing will not be used to fund current operations or normal
maintenance.
15. The City will strive to maintain an unreserved general fund balance at a
level not less than 7.5% of the annual general fund revenue.
16. If new project appropriation needs are identified at an interim period during
the fiscal year, the funding sources will be identified and mid-year budget

amendments will be utilized to provide formal budgetary authority. In
addition budget amendments may be utilized to increase appropriations
for specific capital projects.
PREPARING THE CAPITAL BUDGET
The most important year of the schedule of projects is the first year. It is called the
Capital Budget and is adopted separately from the five year program as part of the
annual budget review process.
Based on the CIP, each department's capital outlay portion will be formulated for that
particular year. Each year the CIP will be revised and another year will be added to
complete the cycle. Capital Improvement Programming thus becomes a continuing part
of the City's budget and management process.
The Capital Budget is distinct from the Operating Budget. The Capital Budget
authorizes capital expenditures, while the Operating Budget authorizes the expenditure
of funds for employee salaries, supplies, and materials.
Through the City's amendment process, changes can be made to the adopted Capital
Budget during the fiscal year. A request for amendment is generated by an operating
department based on an urgent need for new capital project or for additional funding for
a previously approved project. The request is reviewed by the Finance Support
Services Director and City Manager and, if approved by the City Manager, a budget
amendment is presented to the City Commission.
LOCATING A SPECIFIC CAPITAL PROJECT
The Capital Improvement Program is divided into five program areas as follows:
Beautification and Parks (BP)
Transportation, Drainage and Infrastructure Improvements (TDI)
Public Buildings and Facilities (PBF)
Information/Communication Technology (ICT)
Capital Equipment Purchase & Replacement (CE)
Each project in the Capital Improvement Program has a unique project number. This
project number appears at the beginning of the individual project descriptions and the
Summary by Year tables. The first digit refers to functional category priority number
assigned by the City Manager. The final digits outline the individual department
requesting the project. For example, project TDI-1-CS is Transportation, Drainage and
Infrastructure Improvements project number one which was requested by the
Community Services Department.

READING THE PROGRAM SCHEDULES
Detailed information about each capital project is presented in the section titled "Capital
Improvement Program Project Descriptions and Funding Schedules". The section is
arranged by program area and functional category and includes a description of each
project and the funding schedules. Project timetables for each functional category are
indicated in the Summary by Year tables.
The funding schedules are based on the funding needed to complete an individual
project. A project's funding may continue for several years depending on the
development timetable. Each program has a separate Funding Plan Table that outlines
the revenue sources proposed to fund project expenditures.

FUNDING PLAN
INTRODUCTION
In order for a Capital Improvement Program to be an effective management planning
tool, the program must include not only a compilation of major capital needs and their
costs but also a financing plan for the entire life of the program. This financing plan
must include an analysis of the available resources which will be used to fund not only
the Capital Improvement Program itself but the required operating expenses and debt
service requirements of the City.
In order to ensure that the financing plan is complete in every respect, the plan
formulation process must include:
1. A projection of revenues and resources which will be available to fund
operating and capital expenditures during the life of the Capital
Improvement Program.
2. A projection of future years' operating expenditure levels which will be
required to provide ongoing services to City residents.
3. Once the Capital Improvement Program projects have been evaluated, a
determination is made of the projects to be funded and the timing of the
cash outflow for each project. The information is then tabulated to
determine the amounts required to fund the Capital Improvement Program
for each year.
4. From the information obtained in 1 through 3 above, the additional
resources required to fund the CIP will be determined and a decision will
be made on whether the program is to be financed by the issuance of
debt, on a pay-as-you-go basis or some combination of the two.
The financing plan prepared in such a manner will be as accurate as possible and
should be an informative document to all City residents. However, due to the uncertainty
involved in projecting operating cost increases, the community's desire for service
increases and the inflow of resources over a five year period, the financing plan
presented should be viewed as a theoretical framework to be adjusted each year based
on the most recent information available at that time. This will be accomplished by
updating the financing plan each year, adopting operating and capital budgets, and
ordinances to implement fee structures which will be required to fund the program each
year.
DEBT VS PAY-AS-YOU-GO FINANCING
Debt financing through the issuance of long term bonds is most appropriate when:
1. There are a small number of relatively large dollar value projects.
Capital Improvement Program 2005-2010
Page 9
City of Aventura
2. The large projects cannot be broken into segments and the costs
distributed over a larger time frame without impairing the usefulness of the
project.
3. The projects are non-recurring.
4. Assets acquired have a relatively long useful life which equals or exceeds
the life of the debt.
Through long term bond financing, the costs of a project having a long useful life can be
shared by future residents who will benefit from the projects.
In contrast, pay-as-you-go financing is most appropriate for a Capital Improvement
Program which includes:
1. A large number of projects having a relatively small dollar value.
2. Projects which can be broken into phases with a portion completed each
year without impairing the overall effectiveness of the project.
3. Projects which are of a recurring nature.
4. Projects where the assets acquired will have relatively short useful lives.
The primary advantage of pay-as-you-go financing is that the interest costs and costs of
bringing a bond issue to market can be avoided. However, if inappropriately used, this
financing plan may cause tax rates and fee structures to increase suddenly and may
result in current residents paying a greater portion of projects which benefit future
residents.
In summary, the choice of the appropriate financing plan will be contingent upon an
analysis of the projects to be included in a Capital Improvement Program.
REQUIRED SEPARATION OF FUNDING SOURCES
In order to comply with accepted governmental accounting practices and to ensure
compliance with City Codes and any related Bond Indentures, the analysis and
financing plan contained herein will be presented within their respective funds. Projects
funded on a pay-as-you-go basis will directly relate to the Capital Fund Budget from
where the source of funding is derived. Each of these Budgets will appear in the Annual
Operating and Capital Improvement Budget, which is adopted each year. Those funds
are currently represented as follows:
1. General Fund
2. Transportation and Street Maintenance Fund
Capital Improvement Program 2005-2010
Page 10
City of Aventura
3. Police Impact Fee Fund
4. Park Development Fund
5. Stormwater Utility Fund
In accordance with accounting, legal and internal revenue requirements, all
projects to be completed with the proceeds received from the sale of Bonds or loans will
be accounted for in a Capital Construction Fund or Stormwater Utility Fund. In addition,
capital outlay for the Charter Elementary School is included in a separate Budget
adopted by the City Commission.
SUMMARY OF FINANCING PLAN MODEL
Detailed funding plans for individual funds of the City are enclosed herein in the
following sections. 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 the total
five year amount of $14,294,037. No additional debt is recommended.
2. Utilize funding from impact fees and grants in the amount of $1,956,000 to assist in
the funding of the Waterways Park and police equipment.
3. No increase in the operating ad valorem tax rate is recommended during the five
year period. However, if operating expenditures increase at a higher rate than
expected, unanticipated events reduce key revenue sources, or an unforeseen
emergency occurs during the five year period an operating ad valorem tax rate
increase may be required. It should be made clear that the funding plan is based on
a series of projections and assumptions. If events occur that revise the projections
and assumptions, the financing plan will have to be updated and amended.

PROPOSED FINANCING PLAN
GENERAL FUND
After evaluating the nature of the various projects that are included in the City's General
Capital Improvement Program, it was decided that pay-as-you-go would be most
appropriate for funding the program.
FINANCING PLAN TABLES
Based on this decision, the analysis which follows is aimed at developing a financing
plan which will allow the City to fund General Government Services operating
expenditures and all projects recommended for funding in the General Capital
Improvement Program for each year of the program.
Table 1 presents a five (5) year projection of resources which will be available for
General Government Services. Unless shown by an asterisk (*), the amount projected
for each revenue is based on the tax rate or fee structure in effect during the 2004/05
fiscal year. Revenue descriptions followed by an asterisk (*) were computed based on a
projected increase in the rate structure as discussed in the assumption of projections.
Table 2 presents a five (5) year projection of required operating expenses for General
Government Services which utilize the cost data as outlined in the assumption of
projections.
Table 3 is a recap of resources available to fund the General Capital Improvement
Program based on projected revenues and expenditures and the proposed Capital
Improvement Program appropriations for the five (5) years of the program. Please note
that this analysis assumes that all available resources not needed to fund current
operating expenditures will be transferred to the Capital Improvement Program Fund
and that any balance in the Capital Improvement Program Fund will remain in the
Capital Improvement Program. Through this process, the City will be able to accumulate
a reserve which would be used to fund unexpected capital outlays or to fund future
years' programs.

PARK DEVELOPMENT FUND
The Park Development Fund is used to account for revenues specifically earmarked for
capital improvements to the City's park system. Impact fees from new development
become a funding source for future park development plans. For purposes of this five
year plan, impact fees will be utilized to assist in funding the Waterways Park project.
This fund will also be used to account for the grant funding obtained for the proposed
park improvements.

STORMWATER UTILITY FUND
The City of Aventura is responsible for stormwater management activities within the
corporate boundaries. Dade County was responsible for stormwater facility constriction,
operation and maintenance prior to the incorporation of the City. The County provided a
very limited level of stormwater maintenance. Many drainage and flooding problems
existed in the City that required major capital improvements.
In order to address the deficiencies and develop an ongoing maintenance program, a
Stormwater Utility Fund was created. The Fund generates revenues for stormwater
management costs, permitting and capital improvements from a source other than the
General Fund, gas taxes or ad valorem taxes. The Utility relies on user fees charged to
residents and businesses for generating revenues.
The City has recognized the need and importance of taking a pro-active approach
toward stormwater management. The stormwater drainage improvements contained in
the five year Capital Improvement Program were based on a complete survey of all
areas of the City conducted by the Community Services Department together with the
City's consulting engineers.
The Fund will be responsible for ongoing operation and maintenance costs, as well as
capital improvements. The yearly operating expenses will be made by the General
Fund and reimbursed by the Stormwater Utility Fund as a transfer of revenue.
Table 7 reflects the anticipated revenues available and the proposed appropriations for
the Stormwater Utility Fund for the five year period.
A total of $2,1 05,000 worth of stormwater drainage projects will be completed during the
five year period. The monthly rate charged to users per unit was $2.50 for 2004/05. It is
not recommended that the fee be increased during the next five years.

The estimated current population for the City of Aventura is 28,200. The City's
Comprehensive Plan recommended standard is 2.75 acres of park and recreation land
for every 1,000 potential residents. The amount of park and recreation land required by
the park standards for this population is 77.6 acres. In calculating the number of
recreation acres the city has available for use by residents, public private, golf courses
and marinas are accounted for at a different degree depending on accessibility to
citizens of the City. Assuming that public facilities can be accounted for at 100%, private
recreation facilities at 50%, and marinas and the golf course at 25%, the City existing
and proposed recreation areas total 114. Therefore, no deficiency exists under the
Capital Improvement Program 2005-2010

The City incorporated in November of 1995, prior to that time the area of the City was
under the jurisdiction of Dade County. Condominium Associations or Dade County
maintained the roads and rights-of-way. The City entered into an Interlocal Agreement
with Dade County that transferred the jurisdiction of all public roads and rights-of-ways
to the City. In January of 1997 the City assumed the maintenance of all public roads
and rights-of-way. The City's consulting engineers conducted an extensive evaluation
of the City's infrastructure including roadways, drainage, sidewalks and streetlighting.
The study indicated that major improvements were necessary for storm drainage and
street lighting. Most of the infrastructure deficiencies have been addressed with the
completion of the original 5 year CIP which began in 1997/98.
In January 1997, the City Commission by Resolution No. 97-05 adopted a Policy
governing the conversion of private roads to public roads. The Williams Island Road
project was the first roadway conversion to implement the provisions of the Policy as it
relates to drainage, street lighting and safety improvements.
Major emphasis was also placed on improving street lighting and replacing FPl cobra
head lights with decorative lighting fixtures in areas that the rights-of-way could
accommodate the new light fixtures. During the 1997/98 fiscal year the City in
cooperation with several developers entered into an Agreement to construct the North
Aventura Stormwater Collector (213'h Street), 3 years ahead of schedule and at a cost
savings of $1,000,000. In 1999 the south collector was completed using a similar
private-public partnership. During 2002, NE 34th Avenue was connected to the north
collector. During 2003, Biscayne lakes Garden area and NE 29th Avenue was
connected to the north connector. In 2004 the City embarked on the first phase of the
drainage improvements for the Hospital District.
