others. This technique calculates the total person -trip capacity of all transportation modes
utilizing a transportation facility against the total person -trip demand for travel on that
facility, expressing the resulting ratio in letter -grades LOS A through LOS F in the same
manner as used by the conventional vehicles -over -capacity (V/C) methodologL.4s-�

Objective TR -1.5: Although mass transit can be operated
within the City of Miami only under the absolute authority of
Metropolitan Miami -Dade County, the City of Miami's
continued development requires the provision of efficient
mass transit and paratransit services that serve existing and
future trip generators and attractors, the provision of safe
and convenient mass transit passenger transfer terminal
facilities, the appropriate coordination of mass transit with
existing and future land uses, and the accommodation of the
special needs of the City of Miami's population, many of

Policy TR -1.5.2: The City's land development regulations will dir-eet-encourage high
density commercial and residential development and redevelopment in close proximity to
Metrorail and Metromover stations, consistent with the Station Area Design and
Development Plan for each station. Because many transit riders begin and end their trips
as pedestrians the City, through its land development regulations and with Miami -Dade
County concurrence, will require, as appropriate, continuous sidewalks to the transit
station and pedestrian -oriented amenities such as shade trees, awnings, and other weather
protection.
Policy TR -1.5.3: The City shall use its land development regulations to assist the
University of Miami/Jackson Memorial Hospital in meeting the demands of Civic Center
expansion and helping solve the consequent accessibility and parking problems, and,_

ANALYSIS FOR PROPOSED AMENDMENT OF THE
MIAMI COMPREHENSIVE NEIGHBORHOOD PLAN
CASE NO: 03-003
On November 13, 2002, the Planning & Zoning Department received from the Florida
Department of Community Affairs (DCA) an "Objections, Recommendations and
Comments" (ORC) report regarding proposed text amendments to the Miami
Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan (MCNP). The amendments, having been adopted on
first reading by the City Commission, were transmitted to DCA on August 26, 2002 for
review pursuant to statutory requirements. The proposed amendments addressed (1) the
Parks, Recreation and Open Space Element of the MCNP, establishing specific goals
associated with creation of a new park in Little Haiti, and (2) the Transportation Element
of the MCNP, implementing recommendations of the adopted Evaluation and Appraisal
Report (EAR), affirming the designation of an Urban Infill Area, establishing Urban
Streets, and complying with State of Florida requirements.
The ORC report identified eight specific areas of concern, providing recommendations
for each. The Planning & Zoning Department, with input from the City's Transportation
Coordinator, has prepared the attached response to the ORC report and has modified its
proposed amendments to the adopted Goals, Objectives and Policies of the MCNP to
address the State's requirements. The Planning & Zoning Department recommends
approval of these proposed amendments.

systems, public transit system, port facilities, airport facilities including clear zones and
obstructions, freight and passenger rail lines and terminals, intermodal terminals and access to
intermodal facilities, existing functional classification and maintenance responsibility for all
roads, the number of through lanes for each roadway, the major public transit trip generators and
attractors based on existing land use map or map series, and designated local and regional
transportation facilities critical to evacuation of the coastal population prior to an impending
natural disaster.
Also, the amendment does not contain maps or map series identifying existing peak hour, peak
direction levels of service for roads and mass transit facilities and corridors or routes; and
capacity of significant parking facilities and duration limitations (long or short term) where
applicable. [Rules 9J-5.005(2); 9J -5.019(2)(a) and (b), F.A.C.; & Chapter 163. Part II,- F.S.]
Recommendations: Revise the amendment or element by including existing transportation
maps or map series showing the road systems, public transit system, port facilities, airport
facilities including clear zones and obstructions, freight and passenger rail lines and terminals,
intermodal terminals and access to intermodal facilities, existing functional classification and
maintenance responsibility for all roads, the number of through lanes for each roadway, the
major public transit trip generators and attractors based on existing land use map or map series,
and designated local and regional transportation facilities critical to evacuation of the coastal
population prior to an impending natural disaster. Revise the amendment to include maps or
map series identifying existing peak hour, peak direction levels of service for roads and mass
transit facilities and corridors or routes; and capacity of significant parking facilities and duration
limitations (long or short term) where applicable.
The City could use any of the applicable, relevant and updated data from the County provided
such data is reflective of the City's current conditions. The City should provide maps for LOS
and other maps, which might have changed and for those that are not addressed in detail by the

2. Transportation Analysis Requirements: The proposed amendment is not based upon the
required analyses which address all modes of transportation and support the comprehensive plan
pursuant to Subsection 9J-5.005(2), F.A.C. The amendment is not supported by analyses as
listed in Rules 9J -5.019(3)(a) through 0), F.A.C. For instance, in Rule 9J -5.019(3)(a), the
amendment is not supported by "an analysis of the existing transportation system levels of
service and system needs based upon existing design capacities; most recently available
estimates for average daily and peak hour vehicle trips; existing modal split and vehicle
occupancy rates; existing public transit facilities, including ridership by route, peak hour
capacities and headways; population characteristics, including transportation disadvantaged; and
the existing characteristics of the major trip generators and attractors within the community."
The amendment does not contain analyses that address the existing and projected conditions of
the multi -modal transportation system, including projected LOS conditions for the five-year
planning period and plan horizon, coordination with MPO/FDOT, and coordination of future
land uses and long range programs in order to demonstrate ability to provide supporting
transportation infrastructure. Furthermore, the amendment is not supported by analysis of
existing and projected intermodal deficiencies and needs such as terminals, connections, high
occupancyvehicle lanes, park-and-ride lots and other facilities. The amendment does not
contain analysis that is required in 9J -5.019(3)(h), F.A.C., regarding a demonstration by the City
on how it will maintain its adopted LOS standards for roads and transit facilities within its
jurisdiction and how the LOS standards reflect and advance the purpose of the Future Land Use
Element's GOPs of the MCNP. [Rules 9J-5.005(2); 9J -5.019(3)(a) through 0), F.A.C.; &
Chapter 163. Part II, F.S.]
Recommendations: Revise the element to include analysis that address the existing and
projected conditions of all modes of transportation and support the comprehensive plan pursuant
to Subsection 9J-5.005(2), F.A.C. Revise the element to include analyses as listed in Rules 9J -
5.019(3)(a) through 0), F.A.C. The City could use any of the applicable, relevant and updated
data and analysis from the County provided such data is reflective of the City's current
conditions.
City of Miami Response to Objection IA 2.

I Requirements for Transportation Goals, Objectives and Policies: The proposed EAR_
based amendment does not contain the goals, objectives and implementing policies, supported by
appropriate data and analysis (as described in #s 1 and 2 above) which: (a) establish the long
term end toward which transportation programs and activities are ultimately directed; (b) address
specific objectives for each goal statement which address the requirements of Chapter
163.3177(6)(b), (6)0), (7)(a) and (7)(b). F.S., and also which address the requirements as listed
in Rules 9J -5.019(4)(b)1. through 9., F.A.C.; and (c) address the implementation activities for
items 1 through 21 of Rules 9J -5.019(4)(c), F.A.C.
Although the amendment includes revisions related to certain objectives and policies in an
attempt to address Rule 9J -5,019(4)(c), F.A.C., the changes are not supported by data and
analysis to demonstrate that the amendment appropriately reacts to, and is based on upon best
and current available data and supporting analysis. For instance, Policy TR -1.1.3 and associated
sub -policies 1.1.3.4 and 1.1.3.5 still retain a minimum operating LOS standard for local bus
transit vehicles (150% of seated load), and for express bus transit vehicles (125% of seated load),
as 60 minute headway. These LOS standards do not appear to be reflect the current conditions
with the City's current transit system. [Rules 9J-5.005(2); 9J -5.019(4)(a), (b) and(c), F.A.C.;
Chapters 163.3177(6)(b), (6)0), (7)(a) and (7)(b). F.S.,
Recommendations: Revise the amendment or element to address the requirements of all the
items listed in Rule 9J -5,019(4)(c), F.A.C.. The analysis should be based upon best and current
available data and analysis that identifying either current deficiencies or projects future actions to
mitigate both anticipated and unanticipated impacts resulting from land use planning and
development decisions. For instance, establishment of an objective(s) to "address the provision
of efficient public transit services based upon existing and proposed major trip generators and
attractors, safe and convenient public transit terminal, land uses and accommodation of the
special needs of the transportation disadvantaged", as required in Rule 9J -5.019(4)(b)4., F.A.C.,
could be more meaningful and reasonable if the rationale is based upon information and analysis
about the current conditions compared with the City's growth vision.
City of Miami Response to Obiection IA 3.
The proposed Goals, Objectives and Policies amendment has been revised to address all
applicable requirements listed in Rule 9J -5,019(4)(c), F.A.C. and to reflect the City's policy
response to the analysis of current conditions compared with the City's growth vision, as
follows:
9J -5.019(4)(c): The element shall contain one or more policies for each objective which
address implementation activities for the:
1. Establishment of LOS standards at peak hour for roads and transit facilities within the local government's
jurisdiction. For facilities on the Florida Intrastate Highway System as defined in Section 338.001, F.S., the
local governments shall adopt the level of service standards established by the Department of Transportation by
rule. With the concurrence of the Department of Transportation, a local government may establish level of
service standards for general lanes in urbanized areas as specified in Section 163.3180, F.S. For all other
facilities on the future traffic circulation map, local governments shall adopt adequate level of service standards.
These level of service standards shall be adopted to ensure that adequate facility capacity will be provided to
serve the existing and future land uses as demonstrated by the supporting data and analysis in the
comprehensive plan;

Response to 9J -5.019(4)(c)1:
•
The proposed amendment has been revised by extensive editing, rewriting, and modification of
.Policies TR -1.1.2 through TR -1.1.4 to respond to" the Recommendation and to the requirements
of 9J -5.019(4)(c)1. Significant modifications include the elimination of the Transportation
Corridors designation and simplification of the methodology for applying transportation levels of
service calculation to various transportation facilities: These revisions are proposed as an interim
measure to assure compliance with the requirements of Rule 9J -5.0019(4)c)1 until the 2004
Evaluation and Appraisal (EAR) process is completed, and amendments to the comprehensive
.plan Transportation Element based on the EAR can be made. Policy TR- 1.1.4. describes the.
anticipated direction of that process. All the proposed revisions are shown with underlines and
strikethroughs on the amendment document. The re -written policies are printed below with the
revisions made, for ease of reading:
Policy TR=1.1.2: The City of Miami originated and continues to utilize a person -trip
methodology for measurement of level of service (LOS) on a transportation facility, which may
be a roadway, mass transit service, pedestrian way, bikeway; or any other transportation mode
alone or in combination with others. This technique calculates the total person -trip capacity of all
transportation modes utilizing a transportation facility against the total person -trip demand for
travel on that,facility, expressing the resulting ratio in letter -grades LOS A through LOS.F in the
same manner as used by the conventional vehicles -over -capacity (V/Q methodology.. The
measurement of LOS is made for the,peak period (the average of the two highest consecutive
hours of trip volume during a weekday), and an overall minimum peak -period LOS standard E
(100 percent utilization of person -trip capacity) will be maintained, subject to the following
modifications:
1.1.2.1: Where no public mass transit exists, and private passenger vehicles are the
only vehicular mode available for travel ori the facility: minimum LOS E (100 .percent
of capacity) using 1.6 persons -per -vehicle as the practical capacity of a private
passenger vehicle.
1.1.2.2: Where local bus mass transit service on minimum 20 minute headways is
available parallel to and within % mile of the facility; the facility shall operate at no
greater than 120 percent of capacity.
1.1.2.3: Where express bus transit and/or rapid rail transit service on. minimum 20
minute headways is available parallel to` and within %Z mile of the facility, the facility
shall operate at no greater than 150 percent of capacity.
Policy TR -1.1.3: Notwithstanding the foregoing, as required by s. 163.3180(10) F.S., the
following standards established by rule by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) are
adopted by the City of Miami as its minimum LOS standards for Florida Intrastate Highway
System (FIHS) roadways within the City, subject to any applicable provisions governing
requirements of the Urban Infill Transportation Concurrency Exception Area (see Policy TR -
1.1.1):
1:1.3.1: Limited access FIHS highways shall operate at LOS D or better, except that
where exclusive through lanes'exist, such roadways may operate at LOSE.
6 of 22
1.2332
1.1.3.2: Controlled access FIHS.highways shall operate at LOS D or better, except that
where such roadways are parallel to exclusive transit facilities or are located within a
Transportation Concurrency Exception Area (TCEA), roadways may operate at LOS
E.
1.1.3.3: Where FDOT has determined that a FIHS roadway is constrained or
backlogged, such roadways operating below the foregoing minimums must be
managed so as to not cause significant deterioration, which is defined as an average
annual daily traffic increase in two-way traffic volume of 10 percent or more, or a 10
percent or greater reduction in operating speed for the peak direction in the 100th
highest hour.
Policy TR -1.1.4: As part of the Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR) on the Miami
Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan (MCNP) scheduled for completion in 2004, and the
subsequent comprehensive revision by amendment of the MCNP, the Transportation Element of
the MCNP will be revised to introduce the Miami Intermodal Transportation (MIT) plan,
replacing the former Transportation Corridors plan. The MIT plan will identify, describe,
measure, and evaluate the multimodal transportation corridors, facilities and terminals in the City
of Miami and recommend measures to enhance vehicular and mass transit operations, provide for
greater pedestrian access and amenity, and offer incentives for use of alternative transportation
modes. The MITC plan will pay particular attention to the differing characteristics of Miami's
neighborhoods such as land use, population density, economic activity, housing and business
type and quality, and neighborhood plans, and will develop detailed standards for transportation
facilities and services that will complement neighborhood development, redevelopment, and
conservation. Miami's downtown will be the subject of special attention, to ensure that its new
residential development will enjoy the benefits of an improved multimodal transportation system
as described in the Miami Downtown Transportation Master Plan.
2. Control of the connections and access points of driveways and roads to roadways.
Response to 9J -5.019(4)(c)2:
Policy TR -1.8.1: The City shall continue to assure provision of an adequate, properly designed
and safe system for controlling vehicular accessibility to major thoroughfares through adopted
design standards and procedures as contained in the City Public Works Manual as adopted for
use in the review process, which at a minimum address:
1. Adequate storage and turning bays;
2. Spacing and design of median openings and curb cuts;
3. Provision of service roads along major thoroughfares, where applicable;
4. Driveway access and spacing; and
5. Traffic operations, including the provision of turning bays and laybys for bus
transit.
3. Establishment of parking strategies that will promote transportation goals and objectives.
Response to 9J -5.019(4)(c)3:
7 of 22.
123-32
Policy TR -1.1.10: Upon completion of the Evaluation and Appraisal Report in 2004, and in
conjunction with the comprehensive amendment and revision to the Miami Comprehensive
Master Plan; the City will amend the Transportation Element of its comprehensive plan -to
facilitate implementation of the study's recommendations and depict existing and planned future
major parking facilities on appropriate maps.
Policy. TR -1.1.16: Through enforcement of applicable provisions of Section 14-71

4. For existing or future transportation rights-of-way and corridors designated in the local government
comprehensive plan, establishmeasures for their acquisition, preservation or protection. ,
Response to 9.1-5.019(4)(c)4:....
No additional transportation rights-of-way within the City of Miami have been designated in the
comprehensive plan, nor is it contemplated that any additional rights-of-way of any significance
will be required in the future. Virtually all transportation improvements contemplated for.the
future will be accommodated within existing rights of way. Therefore, protections of rights-of-
way is addressed only in a largely -maintenance mode:
Objective TR -1.2: Rights-of-way and corridors needed for existing
transportation networks will be designated and reserved.
Policy TR -1.2.1: The City will maintain and enforce, and where necessary revise, the minimum
right-of-way requirements established in its City Code to ensure the continuity and effectiveness
of the thoroughfare network.
Policy TR -1.2.2: The City will continue to maintain a comprehensive public rights-of-way
improvements program for those major commercial streets that are under the City's jurisdiction
and have high levels of pedestrian activity.

Other Transportation Element Text Amendments:
1. New Policy TR -1.1.10: "Upon completion of the Miami 2000 transportation and parking
study, the City will amend the Transportation Element of its comprehensive plan to facilitate
implementation of the study's recommendations and depict existing and planned future major
parking facilities on appropriate maps."
Staff Analysis/Potential ORC Objection: This text amendment is intended to meet the
requirement of Rule 9J-5.019(2)(a)l.d., F.A.C., regarding the general location of significant
parking facilities, as determined/maintained by the City. The City is deferring the compliance of
this rule requirement until the Miami 2000 transportation and parking study referenced in Policy -
1.1.10 above is completed. However, the policy does not indicate a date certain or timeframe by
which the study will be completed. It is also uncertain if the study had been completed in Year
2000. Therefore, the policy is vague and does not provide a predictable and meaning target by
which it will be measured. [Rule 9J-5.019(2)(a)l.d., F.A.C.; Chapters 163.3191(1), and 339.175,

2. LOS Standards and Concurrency Policies TR -1.1.1,1.1.2,1.1.3, & MA; Policy TR-,
1.4.4: The concurrency policies (TR -1.1.1, 1.1.2, 1.1.3, & 1.1.4), are vague and internally
inconsistent in regard to how concurrency applies within the City. It is not clear whether or not
the City has exempted development from concurrency.. Policy 1.1.1 indicates that the
concurrency exception applies, but requires compliance with LOS standards as set forth in
Policies 1. 1.2 and 1. 1.3 for Transportation Corridors and non -Transportation Corridors,
respectively. Policies 1. 1.2 and 1. 1.3 define the LOS standard based on whether the roadway is a
'designated Transportation Corridor. However, these corridors are not defined in the Plan.
Therefore, the policy is vague in regard to the applicable LOS standard.
Policy 1.1.3.2 refers to projects scheduled in the first three years of the -County TIP; however,
Rule 9J-5.0055(3), F.A.C., allows consideration of only those projects in the first three years of
the City's capital improvements element or the first three years of the FDOT five-year plan.
This policy is also not clear in regard to the basis for issuing development orders.. It states:
"roadways may operate below the applicable minimum...." However, the policy language is
confusing in that it does not address when a development permit may be issued; whereas Policy
1. 1.4 addresses the issuance of permits but only seems to apply to the FIHS facilities.
Finally, new Policy 1.4.4 establishes a new category called "Urban Streets'' but does.not"explain
how this designation relates to the subject policies or what LOS standards will apply to such
roads. The policy does not establish any criteria and process for the selection of the future
roadways that will qualify for the Urban Streets designation or how it will be implemented.
[Rules. 9J -5.019(4)(c)1.; 9J -5.015(3)(b)3.; 9J -5.019(5)(a)1., and (b)4.., F.A.C.; & Chapter. 163.
Part II, F.S.]
Recommendations: Revise the policies to specify the LOS standards for the FIHS facilities.
Revise the policies to also specify the LOS standards for the roadways within, and outside the
Transportation Corridor Areas. Revise Policy 1.4.4 to explain the LOS standard that applies to
the Urban Streets designated roadways. Further revise the policies to clarify how permits will be
issued consistent with Rule 9J-5.0055, F.A.C. Further clarify in regard to general applicability
of concurrency within the City. If the City desires -to apply concurrency as indicated in the above
referenced policies, the City should repeal the concurrency exception and modify Policy TR -
1.1.1 to specify that LOS standards apply as described in the other policies. Furthermore, revise
the amendment by including- maps that show the Transportation Corridors and Urban. Streets
designation.
City of Miami Response to Other Transportation Element Text Amendments: 2. LOS ,
Standards and Concurrency Policies TR -1.1.1.1.1.2, L1.3, c& 1.1.4: Policy TR -1.4.4
The proposed amendment has been revised by extensive editing, rewriting, and modification,
of Policies TR -1.1.2 through TR -1.1.4 to respond to the Recommendation and to the
requirements of 9J-5:019(4)(c)l. Significant modifications include the elimination of the
Transportation Corridors designation and simplification of the methodology for applying
transportation levels of service calculation to various transportation facilities. These revisions
are proposed as an interim measure to assure compliance with the requirements of Rule 9J -
'5.0019(4)c)1 until the 2004 Evaluation and Appraisal (EAR) process is completed, and
amendments to the comprehensive plan Transportation Element based on the EAR can be
made. Policy TR -1.1.4 describes the anticipated direction of that process. All the proposed
18 of 22
'4 33
revisions are shown with underlines and strikethroughs on the amendment document. The re-
written policies are printed below with the revisions made, for ease of reading:
Policy TR -1.1.2: The City of Miami originated and continues to utilize a person -trip
methodology for measurement of level of service (LOS) on a transportation facility, which may
be a roadway, mass transit service, pedestrian way, bikeway, or any other transportation mode
alone or in combination with others. This technique calculates the total person -trip capacity of all
transportation modes utilizing a transportation facility against the total person -trip demand for
travel on that facility, expressing the resulting ratio in letter -grades LOS A through LOS F in the
same manner as used by the conventional vehicles -over -capacity (V/C) methodology. The
measurement of LOS is made for the peak period (the average of the two highest consecutive
hours of trip volume during a weekday), and an overall minimum peak -period LOS standard E
(100 percent utilization of person -trip capacity) will be maintained, subject to the following
modifications:
1.1.2.1: Where no public mass transit exists, and private passenger vehicles are the
only vehicular mode available for travel on the facility: minimum LOS E (100 percent
of capacity) using 1.6 persons -per -vehicle as the practical capacity of a private
passenger vehicle.
1.1.2.2: Where local bus mass transit service on minimum 20 minute headways is
available parallel to and within'/2 mile of the facility, the facility shall operate at no
greater than 120 percent of capacity.
1.1.2.3: Where express bus transit and/or rapid rail transit service on minimum 20
minute headways is available parallel to and within %2 mile of the facility, the facility
shall operate at no greater than 150 percent of capacity.
Policy TR -1.1.3: Notwithstanding the foregoing, as required by s. 163.3180(10) F.S., the
following standards established by rule by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) are
adopted by the City of Miami as its minimum LOS standards for Florida Intrastate Highway
System (FIHS) roadways within the City, subject to any applicable provisions governing
requirements of the Urban Infill Transportation Concurrency Exception Area (see Policy TR -
1.1.1):
1.1.3.1: Limited access FIHS highways shall operate at LOS D or better, except that
where exclusive through lanes exist, such roadways may operate at LOS E.
1.1.3.2: Controlled access FIHS highways shall operate at LOS D or better, except that
where such roadways are parallel to exclusive transit facilities or are located within a
Transportation Concurrency Exception Area (TCEA), roadways may operate at LOS
E.
1.1.3.3: Where FDOT has determined that a FIHS roadway is constrained or
backlogged, such roadways operating below the foregoing minimums must be
managed so as to not cause significant deterioration, which is defined as an average
annual daily traffic increase in two-way traffic volume of 10 percent or more, or a 10
percent or greater reduction in operating speed for the peak direction in the 100th
highest hour.

Policy TR -1.1.4: As part of the Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR) on the Miami
Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan (MCNP) scheduled for completion in 2004, and the
subsequent comprehensive revision by amendment of the MCNP, the Transportation Element of
the MCNP will be revised to introduce the Miami Intermodal Transportation (MIT) plan,
replacing the former Transportation Corridors plan. The MIT plan will identify, describe,
measure, and evaluate the multimodal transportation corridors, facilities and terminals in the City
of Miami and recommend measures to enhance vehicular and mass transitoperations, provide for
greater pedestrian access and amenity, and offer incentives for use of alternative transportation
modes. The MITC plan will pay particular attention to the differing characteristics of Miami's
neighborhoods such as land use, population density, economic activity, housing and business
type and quality, and neighborhood plans, and will develop detailed standards for transportation
facilities and services that will complement neighborhood development, redevelopment, and
conservation. Miami's downtown will be the subject of special attention, to ensure that its new
residential development will enjoy the benefits of an improved multimodal transportation system
as described in the Miami Downtown Transportation Master Plan.
The Urban Streets amendment, Policy TR -1.4.4, has been modified to include a. reference to
level of service requirements, and criteria for selection of additional Urban Streets:
Policy TR -1.4.4: A new category of public thoroughfares is created entitled "Urban Streets",
defining the Urban Street as a pedestrian and vehicular way whose primary function is to serve
adjoining residential neighborhoods and the businesses that serve them in the City of Miami.
Characteristics and standards for such streets will be defined and specifications created on a
case=by-case basis in cooperation with the governmental entity having ownership of the street.
Principles that will guide the design process will include, as appropriate: lower design speeds
and control of traffic volumes utilizing traffic calming devices including but not limited to
modification of lane widths consistent with lower design speeds; wide sidewalks; medians;
roundabouts; landscaping; attractive lighting; creative and informative signage; on -street
parking; and other design features and amenities as appropriate. Urban Streets shall be subject to
the level of service standards described in Policies TR -1.1.2 and TR -1.1.3. The first such Urban
Streets. to, be designated shall be:
Biscayne Boulevard
Grand Avenue
Calle Ocho from Brickell Avenue to S.W. 27 Avenue
Coral Way from Brickell Avenue to S.W. 37 Avenue ..
N:E. 2 Avenue from N.E. 36 Street to the North City Limit.
Additional streets may be designated from time to time by Resolution of the City Commission
upon recommendation by the Planning and Zoning Department, based upon criteria developed :in
conjunction with the neighborhood planning studies conducted as part of the.comprehensive
update and revision of the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan in 2004. (Resolution No.
01=1126, adopted by the City Commission October 24, 2001).

B. Amendment No. 02-016: Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Element Text
Amendments
The Department raises a comment to the text amendments to the Parks, Recreation and Open
Space Element as follows:
1. Objective PR -1.6: Plan and implement new park districts in designated areas of the city
where additional parks may be necessary to ensure sufficient active and passive recreation
opportunities are made available to city residents within such designated neighborhoods.
Policy PR -1.6.1: The City will commence a planning process to determine the necessary
expansion of recreation and open space needs within the Little Haiti area; more specifically,
within the area bounded by NE 2"d Avenue, NE 67h Street, the FEC Railroad, and NE 59th
Street; said plan shall include an implementation plan and schedule for the designation of a new
park district.
Comments: The intent of the Policy is good and will surely further the City's objectives and
policies towards providing recreational opportunities for the residents in the Little Haiti area.
The City should indicate in this policy a date certain or a timeframe by which the planning
process will commence.

PROPOSED AMENDMENTS
MIAMI COMPREHENSIVE NEIGHBORHOOD PLAN
City of Miami Planning Advisory Board
December 19, 2001
BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS
EAR BASED AMENDMENTS: The proposed Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR) on the Miami
Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan (MCNP) was heard and discussed by the Planning Advisory Board (PAB)
at a series of meetings during the summer and fall of 1995. Following final recommendation for approval by
the PAB by Resolution No. PAB 50-95 on November 1, 1995, the EAR was adopted by the City Commission
by Resolution No. 95-830 on November 16, 1995 and submitted to the Florida Department of Community
Affairs (DCA) December 1, 1995 for review in accordance with the requirements of Chapter 163.3191, F.S.
DCA's review of the proposed EAR revealed a number of points on which further information and/or
explanation was necessary before the EAR could be found sufficient. The City responded to DCA's
comments with a report entitled "City of Miami Evaluation and Appraisal Report Sufficiency Issues with
Responses by City of Miami" received by DCA July 15, 1996. DCA reviewed this report and, by letter of
December 17, 1996, found the City's EAR sufficient.
A number of amendments to the MCNP were recommended by the EAR, ranging from minor "housekeeping"
issues to more substantive changes. These amendments were divided into three groups, two of which have
already been adopted. This group, consisting of the Transportation Element, is the last of the so-called "EAR -
Based" amendments to be adopted.
URBAN INFILL AREA: In recent years, the Florida Legislature amended sections 163.3180(5) and
163.3177(6)(a), Florida Statutes to allow for designation of urban infill areas. Chapter 163.3180(5)(a), F.S.,
notes that "often the unintended result of the concurrency requirement for transportation facilities is the
discouragement of urban infill development and redevelopment. Such unintended results directly conflict with
the goals and policies of the state comprehensive plan and the intent of this part." The statute provides for
the granting of exceptions from the concurrency requirement for transportation facilities if a proposed
development is located within an area designated for urban infill development. Within the past several years,
Miami -Dade County adopted designation of an urban infill area lying generally east of the Palmetto
Expressway and including all of the City of Miami. On November 16, 1999, by Ordinance No. 11864, the City
Commission adopted an amendment to the Future Land Use Element of the MCNP by affirming this
designation in its own comprehensive plan; similarly, the Transportation Element also should affirm this
designation. This policy creates a designated Transportation Concurrency Exception Area (TCEA)
coextensive with the urban infill area boundaries. Within the TCEA, the transportation level of service (LOS)
will be measured in accordance with the adopted Transportation Corridors level of service standards set forth
in Policies TRA. 1.2 and TRA. 1.3 of the Transportation Element of the MCNP.
URBAN STREETS DESIGNATION: On October 24, 2001, the City Commission adopted Resolution No. 01-1126,
designating a new category of public thoroughfares entitled "Urban Streets", to be included in the MCNP.
Urban Streets are defined as pedestrian and vehicular ways whose primary function is to serve adjoining
residential neighborhoods and the businesses that serve them, and directing that "Characteristics and
standards for such streets shall be defined and specifications created so as to establish lower design speeds
and control of traffic volumes, utilizing traffic calming devices including but not limited to narrow lane widths,
wide sidewalks, medians, roundabouts, landscaping, attractive lighting, creative and informative signage, on -
street parking, and other design features and amenities as appropriate". This direction has been incorporated
in a new Policy TR -1.4.4 of the Transportation Element of the MCNP.
NEW STATE REQUIREMENTS: In response to recent revisions to Rule 9J-5.019, F.A.C., it is necessary to make
numerous changes to the Goals, Objectives and Policies of the Transportation Element of the MCNP. The
issues required to be addressed are as follows: the coordination of transportation and land use, multimodal
approaches, transportation system management (TSM) and transportation demand management (TDM)
12332
strategies, and intergovernmental coordination. Cross-references to the specific requirements of 9J-5.019 are
- included in the attached "Notes regarding Transportation Element amendments to Goals, Objectives and
Policies."
NOTE: See attached "Notes" for additional information.

land use intensities.
Policy TR -1.1.1: The City hereby adopts designation of the City, excluding Virginia
Key, Watson Island and the uninhabited islands of Biscayne Bay that have a land use and
zoning classification of Conservation, as an Urban Infill Area pursuant to Miami -Dade
County's designation of an Urban Infill Area lying generally east of the Palmetto
Expressway and including all of the City of Miami. Within this area, the concentration
and intensification of development around centers of activity shall be emphasized with
the goals of enhancing the livability of residential neighborhoods and the viability of
commercial areas. Priority will be given to infill development on vacant parcels, adaptive
reuse of underutilized land and structures, and the redevelopment of substandard sites.

Attachment )eoposed EAR -Based aInd'Other Amendmsto MCNP Text
total person -trip capacity of all transportation modes utilizing a transportation facility
against the total person -trip demand for travel on that facility, expressing the resulting
ratio in letter -grades LOS A through LOS F in the same manner as used by the
conventional vehicles -over -capacity (V/C) methodology. The measurement of LOS is
made for the peak period (the average of the two highest consecutive hours of trip
volume during a weekday), and an overall minimum peak -period LOS standard E (100
percent utilization of person -trip capacity) will be maintained. Issuance of development
orders for new development or significant expansion of existing development shall be
contingent upon compliance with these LOS standards, subject to the modifications
described in subparagraphs 1.1.2.1 through 1.1.2.3 below and any applicable provisions
of the Urban Infill Concurrency Exception Area
1.1.2.1: Where no public mass transit exists, and private passenger vehicles are
the only vehicular mode available for travel on the facility: minimum LOS E
(100, percent of capacity) using 1.6 persons -per -vehicle as the practical
capacity of a private passenger vehicle.
1.1.2.2: Where local bus mass transit service on minimum 20 minute headways
is available parallel to and within %2 mile of the facility, the facility shall
operate at no greater than 120 percent of capacity.

following standards established by rule by the Florida Department of Transportation
(FDOT) are adopted by the City of Miami as its minimum LOS standards for Florida
Intrastate Highway System (FIRS) roadways within the City, subject to any applicable
provisions governing requirements of the Urban Infill Transportation Concurrency
Exception Area (see Policy TR -.1.1.1):
1.1.3.1: Limited access FIHS highways shall operate at LOS D or"better,
except that where exclusive through lanes exist, such roadways may -operate at
LOS E.
11.1.3.2: Controlled access FIHS highways shall operate at LOS D or.better,
except that where such roadways are parallel to exclusive transit facilities or
are located within a Transportation Concurrency Exception Area (TCEA),
roadways may operate at LOS E.
1.1.3.3: Where FDOT has determined that a FIHS roadway is constrained or
backlogged, such roadways operating below the foregoing minimums must be
managed so as to not cause significant deterioration,which is defined as an
average annual daily traffic increase in two-way traffic volume of 10 percent
or more, or a 10 percent or greater reduction in operating speed for the peak
direction in the 100th highest hour.

ANALYSIS FOR AMENDMENT TO THE
GOALS OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES OF THE
PARKS, RECREATION AND OPEN SPACE
ELEMENT OF
THE MIAMI COMPREHENSIVE
NEIGHBORHOOD PLAN
APPLICATION: No. 2002- 003
The proposed amendment to the Goals Objectives and Policies of the Parks,
Recreation and Open Space Element of Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood
Plan is being requested in order to add a new objective and policy to the plan for
the purposes of initiating a planning process to determine the necessary
expansion of recreation and open space needs within the Little Haiti area; more
specifically, within the area bounded by NE 2"d Avenue, NE 67th Street, the FEC
Railroad, and NE 59th Street. The final product of this effort will be a plan which
includes an implementation plan and schedule for the designation of a new park
district.
The Planning and Zoning Department is recommending approval of the
proposed amendment finding that it will ensure a professional planning process
for the creation and implementation of a new park district in the Little Haiti Area.
Such a new district will then result in increased passive and active recreation
opportunities being made available to the residents of the area.
