Soroka, City December 29, 1 Moratorium Waiver Re( Happiness, Inc. January 6, 1998 City Council Meeting Agenda Item RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council grant the Waiver Request for the moratorium subject to the enclosed conditions. However, if the City Council desires to purchase the property in the future, it should reconsider the docks and boat basin improvements. BACKGROUND Ordinance No. 97-22 created a moratorium upon the issuance of development orders concerning development within the Marina Area and Hospital Area within the City. Section 2 of the Ordinance provides that the City Council may grant a waiver when the City Council determines, based on substantial competent evidence, that the specific use or activity will not detrimentally affect the preparation and implementation of the City Plan and will be compatible with surrounding land uses.

However, due to discussions held by the City regarding possible changes to the uses in the area, the owner plans to take no action until the City's Master Plan is finalized. However, the construction of the seawall, docks and boat basin could be utilized for all uses including residential and commercial, as it is parallel to the shoreline. Recently, at a Workshop Meeting, members of the Council expressed an interest in purchasing the site for park purposes. If this course of action is to be pursued, the effects of approving the waiver in terms of increasing the land value should be considered as part of the decision making process. Based on the proposed improvements not having a detrimental effect on the preparation of the Comprehensive Plan, if the waiver is to be granted, the following conditions should be adopted: 1. That the waiver be granted to a specific project and owner; That the work be prepared in conformance with the Master Plan for the moratorium area, if available, as approved by the City Council as part of the Comprehensive Plan. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

The property is bordered on the north by 188th Street and on the south by a canal. In January of 1995, Happiness, Inc. applied for permits to construct a seawall, docks and a boat basin along the northeastern end of the canal with Dade County (DERM), the State of Florida (DEP) and the Army Corps of Engineers. Issuance of those permits was delayed until recently in order for an official Manatee protection plan to be adopted by Dade County. We are now prepared to close with DERM and DEP and pay the permit fees, receive the permits and go forward with the work. The undersigned hereby requests a public hearing before the City Council to request a waiver from the provisions of Ordinance No. 97-22 which imposed a moratorium upon the issuance of development orders in certain areas of the City. Your prompt attention would be most appreciated since our application with DERM expires February 21. Please call me at 931-4292 with any questions. C.

We are now prepared to close with DERM and DEP and pay the permit fees, receive the permits and go forward with the work. Since this action is a property improvement along the shoreline rather than the construction of a building, logically, the Moratorium (Ordinance No. 97) does not apply. Please confirm that we may make this property improvement without a Moratorium waiver and direct us to the appropriate person within the City of Aventura Government to whom we should make application for any necessary permits.

In this regard, the specific use as residential is compatible with the existing surrounding land uses. However, the area west of the site is currently being utilized for industrial purposes. Based on preliminary discussions with our planning consultants and the Community Development Director, if the residential structures provide quality development, it would not have a detrimental affect on the preparation of the Comprehensive Plan. Other uses such as commercial or industrial could be incompatible to the existing residential uses. In addition, commercial development would generate more traffic than residential development. The Land Use Plan of Dade County designates this area for residential development. In order to ensure the proposal is in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan, the following conditions are recommended: That the waiver be granted to a specific project and owner. That the site plan be prepared in conformance with the Master Plan for the moratorium area approved by the City Council as part of the Comprehensive Plan. That a contract for sale be presented to the City within sixty days. That the owner cooperates with the City relative to the N.E. 185th Street road improvements. That the site plan provide for a thirty-five (35) foot buffer to include landscaping on the west side of the property and a twenty-five (25) foot landscaped buffer on the north side abutting the industrial structures. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

(hereinafter referred to as the "Purchaser"), the undersigned hereby requests a pubic hearing before the City Council to request a waiver from the provisions of Ordinahce 97-22 (the "Moratorium Ordinance"), which imposed a moratorium upon the issuance of development orders and permits within certain areas of Aventura.

The Property is located within the area generally defined by the Moratorium Ordinance as the Marina Area. The Property is currently zoned llJ-1 (Industrial Light Manufacturing).

Such use will not detrimentally affect the preparation and implementation of the City Plan, and will be compatible with surrounding land uses.

Soroka, City Manager City of Aventura 2999 N.E. 191s' Street, Suite 500 Aventura, FL 33180 Re: Municipal Public Transit Study, -- ISQ #97-1;2-2-2 Dear Mr. Soroka: Bermello, Ajamil & Partners (B&A) is pleased to present our team's qualifications to perform Aventura's Municipal Transit Study. The B&A team provides extensive local knowledge and traffic expertise as well as a wealth of similar project experience in municipal transit studies and their implementation. Team Expertise B&A has teamed with the Center for Urban Transportation Research (CUTR) at the University of South Florida. CUTR, a federally designated National Urban Transit Institute, conducts research in growing urban areas to develop innovative, pragmatic approaches to transportation problems. The Center prepared recent transit development plans for Winter Haven, Key West, Brevard County and Lee County, among others (see examples, Section 2). CUTR's work with Broward County Transit allowed it to reduce costs by 90% while quadrupling ridership in areas of relatively Iow demand. Joel Volinski, CUTR's Deputy Director for Transit, for 10 years Director of Broward County Transit, was an innovator in establishing municipal transit services through interlocal agreements. BCT won three 1st Place awards from APTA for transit marketing and communications. Mr. Volinski currently works two days a week as an "in-house consultant" at MDTA for transit management issues. He will be able to maximize the coordination between the County and the City of Aventura. Key lssues Our team's approach focuses on success-based elements. Public Involvern~nt- Critical to success for municipal transit is community input and support. Local "ownership" in designing the service promotes its success. The B&A team will seek input from users, residents and property owners through ongoing, two-way communications that may include workshops, focus group surveys, and print and A/V communications. 2801 SOUTH BAYSHORE DRIVE · 10TH FLOOR , MIAMI FL 33133 · 305 859 2050 * FAX 305 855 9636 Mr. Eric Soroka Page 2 · System Type - The City has identified a circulator-type system· The B&A team proposes that choice of system type should be confirmed based on needs and analysis of different types of systems including circulator, demand-responsive, point-deviation, and route-deviation systems. · Partnering - The B&A team is experienced in developing mutually beneficial and ooperative partnerships among various agencies to share the capital and O&M costs, enhance system-wide efficiency; and improve connectivity to point of generation and destinations. Using this approach, options with MDTA might include eliminating selected MDTA routes on the City transit routes and building transfer facilities jointly. · Effective Advertising - Effective advertising can facilitate successful implementation of Aventura's Public Transit Program. Advertising opportunities exist using traditional media as well as seeking local business and condominium involvement in promoting the service. · Joint-Venture Operation - Jitneys currently operate from various condominiums throughout Aventura, taking residents (mainly seniors) to local stores and malls. Joint-venture opportunities with condominiums and mall operators would help distribute O&M costs· · User Convenience - Beyond sufficient ridership demand and system connectivity, a well-utilized system builds in such user conveniences as equitable and transferrable transfer fares, various fare payment methods, and incentive-based passes and tickets. · ADA Requirements - The B&A team will ensure that Aventura's transit plan complies with the Americans With Disabilities Act. Areas of special attention are transfer facilities and system operation information dissemination. · Special Customer Needs - The particular needs of Aventura's sizeable senior population must be considered in assessing system demand and requirements. The B&A team will reconcile these unique needs in the plan. The B&A team looks forward to presenting our qualifications and sharing our ideas with the City, and to providing Aventura excellence in transit planning. ds, .~ Regar . priy~pat in Char~ePE' PSM INFORMATIONAL SHEET 1) Name, address and telephone number of your firm. 2) Bermello, Ajamil & Partners, Inc. 2601 S.

Snyder, Mayor City Attorney CITY OF AVENTURA OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: City Council Eric M. Soroka, City/~a December 29, 1997 Hidden Bay Associates ~Jden Bay Associates II, and Summit Properties Amended Declaration of Restrictions January 6, 1998 City Council Meeting Agenda Item r-/~_¢ RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council authorize the execution of the attached Amended Declaration of Restrictions with Hidden Bay, Hidden Bay II and Summit Properties ("Developers") relative to the conveyance of the park site, payment of $277,285 for park improvements, $400,000 contribution for N.E. 190th Street beautification improvements and other development issues. BACKGROUND During the consideration of the development approvals for the property known as Hidden Bay, the owner at the time, Glendale Federal Bank, Federal Savings Bank recorded a Declaration of Restrictions document outlining certain obligations. The approvals were granted and the Declarations were accepted through the enactment of Dade County Commission Resolutions Z-15-91 and Z-110-92. As you are aware, I have been negotiating certain issues regarding the proposed park site and beautification improvements along N.E. 190th Street with the new owners, Hidden Bay and Summit Properties. The original Declaration required the owner to provide the following relative to the park site: · Provide a five-acre parcel of parkland enjoyment by the general public. · Maintain and operate the park site. by easement for the use and Memo to City Council Page 2 · Construct a passive park site in accordance with the plans entitled "Proposed Park Development - Marina Del Rey". An Agreement for Construction of Public Park Improvements In-Lieu-Of Payment of Required Park Improvement Impact Fees was entered into with the County and Developer in October 1995. The Agreement provided the Developer to perform the following: · Construct the park improvements as shown on the park plan drawn by O'Leary Design Associates dated December 20, 1993 for a passive park. · Post a letter of credit in the amount of $277,285, which is the estimated cost of construction, to guarantee the construction of the park improvements. Based on the various Workshop Meetings, the City Council had developed a policy to acquire the five-acre park site and obtain the park impact fees previously committed to fund the new ten-acre Founders Park plan. In order to accomplish this objective, the Declaration of Restrictions would need to be amended and the City would need to negotiate the terms of the amendment with the various parties. The attached document is the result of the negotiations. It is important to understand that the nature and use of the park site as it stands today, is far different than that contemplated in 1993 by the Developer and County. This change was the driving force in many of the terms of the Amended Declaration of Restrictions requested by the current Developers. The new park plan on the proposed residential development of Hidden Bay and the existing Summit apartment complex was a major concern to the Developers. The major points of the attached Amended Declaration of Restrictions are as follows: · The easement deed for the five-acre site shall be replaced by a Special Warranty Deed, that will provide for ownership by the City. · The Developers will not lose any development rights relative to density, open space or setbacks by providing the park site to the City. · The conveyance of the park site shall be conditioned upon the City constructing and utilizing the site in accordance with the plans approved by the City Council for Aventura Founders Park dated October 27, 1997. Any changes in the recurring use of the park site, the intensity of uses or the construction of facilities will require approval from the Developers. · The Developers shall also be allowed to review and comment on the final park plans relative to only the five-acre site. · Developer shall pay to the City by January 1, 1998, $277,285 for construction of the park site. Memo to City Council Page 3 · The Developer shall pay to the City $400,000 no later than August 31, 1998 to assist in the landscaping and lighting improvements to N.E. 190th Street. The document is still subject to minor language revisions, but will be executed by the parties in substantially the form that is attached. The Amended Declaration of Restrictions will allow the City to move forward with the construction of the park site and beautification of N.E. 190th Street in accordance with our Capital Improvement Program.
