Pursuant to F.S.380.06(22) (2002), the Project specifies the total amount of development
planned for each land use category, but provides flexibility for such development to be located
anywhere within the Project Area, subject to local land development regulations. The Project
Area includes all property within the boundaries of the Downtown Development Authority, with
the exception of the area between NE/NW 5th Street and 1-395 known as "Park West", as
illustrated on the map in Exhibit Al and described in Exhibit B attached hereto. In addition, the
projects shown on Exhibit E are not part of the Downtown Miami DRI unless they are
abandoned by resolution according to Florida Statutes. The Project Area contains a total of
approximately 903 acres of land, including approximately 78 acres currently zoned and
developed as City parks. Any unreserved development credits remaining in Increment I shall be
added to Increment II total allowable development on May 28, 2003.

existing on the effective date of this Development Order for the land uses to be demolished. If a
change of land use is proposed, the Planning Director may credit the prior land use against the
proposed land use based upon equivalent impacts as measured by peak hour vehicle trip
generation. Any activity which has, on the effective date of this Development Order, a valid
building permit or any currently effective development order (as indicated on Exhibit E attached
hereto) shall not be included as Net New Development. The Planning Director may exclude
from Net New Development any small development under 10,000 square feet in floor area, if he
or she finds that such development would have no regional impact as measured by peak hour
vehicle trips.
2 02--1307

FINDINGS OF FACT:
The following findings of fact are hereby confirmed and adopted with respect to the Project:
A. The findings and determinations of fact set forth in the recitals of the resolution to this
Development Order are herby confirmed.
B. The real property which is the subject of this Development Order is legally described in
Exhibit B.
C. The DDA filed the ADA with the City, the Council, and the Florida Department of
Community Affairs.
D. The ADA has been filed by the DDA pursuant to F.S. 380.06(22) (2002) authorizing a
downtown development authority to apply for development approval and receive a
development order for any or all of the area within its jurisdiction. Individual
developments are not identified or required to be identified in the CADA.
E. The purpose of the CADA is to identify and assess probable regional impacts and to
obtain approval for Total Allowable Development in accordance with the general
guidelines set forth in this Development Order and the CADA. The concept is to
recognize the Project Area as a single area of high intensity development and to focus
the DRI review process primarily on the impacts that Total Allowable Development within
the area will have on land, water, transportation, environmental, community services,
energy and other resources and systems of regional significance. The CADA seeks a
single DRI review process for overall phased development of the downtown area rather
than requiring each individual DRI scale development within the downtown area to file
for separate DRI reviews.
F. Development within the Project Area is expected to continue to be accomplished over an
extended period of time by a variety of developers, which may include the City. These
developers may respond to market demand and technologies that can only be estimated
in the CADA. The CADA is intended to serve as a flexible guide to planned
development of the Project Area rather than a precise blueprint for its development.
Therefore, pursuant to F.S. 380.06(21)(b) (2002), the CADA seeks master development
approval for three increments of development over a period of approximately twenty
years and specific development approval for Increment II, which is the second phase of
development projected for a period of approximately six years. The subsequent
Increment III application may need to be adjusted to more nearly serve as a living guide
recognizing the evolution of market demand and technologies.
G. The Project Area contains a total of approximately 903 acres, including approximately 78
acres presently zoned and developed as City parks. The ADA proposes Net New
Development within the Project Area for the land uses, quantities and phases defined
herein as Total Allowable Development.
H. The Project is not located in an area of critical state concern as designated pursuant to
F.S. 380 (2002).
I. A comprehensive review of the probable impacts that will be generated by Increment II
of the Project has been conducted by various City departments, as reflected in the
CADA, and the South Florida Regional Planning Council staff.
J. This Development Order is consistent with the report and recommendations of the South
Florida Regional Planning Council, entitled "Development of Regional Impact
Assessment for Downtown Miami Increment II," dated July 1, 2002. The South Florida
Regional Planning Council recommends approval of Increment II of the Project, and all
conditions to which such approval is subject are reflected herein.
K. Increment II of the Project is consistent with the applicable portion of the State land
development plan and the Regional Plan for South Florida.
4
02-1307
L. Increment II of the Project is in conformity with the adopted Miami Comprehensive
Neighborhood Plan.
M. Increment II of the Project is in accord with the district zoning classifications of Zoning
Ordinance 11000, as amended.
N. Increment II of the Project will have a favorable impact on the economy of the City.
O. Increment II of the Project will efficiently use public transportation facilities.
P. Increment II of the Project will favorably affect the need for people to find adequate
housing reasonably accessible to their places of employment.
Q. Increment II of the Project will efficiently use necessary public facilities.
R. Increment II of the Project will include adequate mitigative measures to assure that it will
not adversely effect the environment and natural resources of the City.
S. Increment II of the Project will not adversely affect living conditions in the City.
T. Increment II of the Project will not adversely affect public safety.
U. There is a public need for Increment II of the Project.
CONCLUSIONS OF LAW:
That, having made the findings of fact contained above, the City Commission hereby concludes
as a matter of law, the following:
A. The DDA constitutes a "downtown development authority" as defined in F.S. 380.06
(2002), and is authorized by F.S. 380.06 (2002) to make application for development
approval and receive a development order.
B. Increment II of the Project complies with the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan,
is consistent with the orderly development and goals of the City of Miami, and complies
with local land development regulations.
C. Increment II of the Project is consistent with the State Comprehensive Plan and the
Strategic Regional Policy Plan for South Florida.
D. Increment II of the Project is consistent with the report and recommendations of the
South Florida Regional Planning Council and does not unreasonably interfere with any
of the considerations and objectives set forth in F.S. 380.06 (2002).
E. Changes in Increment II of the Project which do not exceed the Total Allowable
Development, or which do not result in a net reduction of more than 5 percent in total
acreage zoned and developed as City parks, shall not constitute a substantial deviation
under F.S. 380.06(19) (2002).
ACTION TAKEN:
That, having made the findings of fact and reached the conclusions of law set forth above, it is
ordered that Increment II of the Project is hereby approved, subject to the following conditions:
THE CITY, ITS SUCCESSORS, AND/OR ASSIGNS JOINTLY OR SEVERALLY MAY ISSUE
BUILDING PERMITS AND CERTIFICATES OF OCCUPANCY FOR TOTAL ALLOWABLE
DEVELOPMENT, PURSUANT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS DEVELOPMENT
ORDER TOGETHER WITH THE ATTENDANT MASTER DEVELOPMENT ORDER AND
SHALL:
Require all development pursuant to this Development Order to be in accordance with
applicable building codes, land development regulations, ordinances and other laws.
5 02-130'7
2. Utilize economic development enhancement resource agencies and programs designed to
involve small and minority businesses in the development and expansion of permanent job
opportunities within the project. Examples of such agencies and programs include, but are
not limited to, those contained in the South Florida Small and Minority Business Resource
Directory. The Applicant will attempt to access the range of job skills available in the region
and promote greater labor force enhancement. At a minimum, the Applicant is encouraged
to provide potential commercial tenants with information about employment and training
agencies that maintain a database of trained/skilled workers to consider in meeting the
project's employment needs. This information shall be bi-annually updated and submitted
as part of the Bi -Annual Status Report included in Condition 16 below.
3. Continue to coordinate with the Miami -Dade County Water and Sewer Department (WASD)
the designation of a site for a pump station to serve the Brickell area.
4. Assure that any fill material utilized at the site, whether from onsite excavation activities
or from offsite sources, meets the clean soils criteria of the FDEP, and DERM, as
applicable.
5. Assure that for any MUSP projects which will include a surface parking areas generating
1,500 (or greater) vehicle trips/hour or any parking garage generating 750 (or greater)
vehicle trips a Carbon Monoxide (CO) air quality analysis shall be submitted. The
analysis shall be reviewed and approved by DERM, FDEP, the SFRPC, and the City of
Miami, prior to the issuance of the first certificate of occupancy for the MUSP project. It
shall incorporate the methodology of the latest FDEP guidelines. The study should
include, if necessary, mitigation measures for which the MUSP applicant shall be
responsible.
6. If the results of the air quality analysis study, as described in Condition 5, above, are
more than 85 percent but less than 100 percent of the State standards for CO
concentrations, implement an air quality monitoring and abatement program following
approval of the report pursuant to Condition 4 above. The program may include the
following techniques:
a. Transportation Control Measures (TCM)
b. Physical planning measures (e.g. signalization, parking area locations, addition
of turn lanes, etc.)
C. The continuance of monitoring for specified sub -areas.
7. If the result of the air quality modeling study, as described in Condition 5, above, exceed
State standards for CO concentrations, do one of the following:
a. Provide acceptable documentation which clearly indicates that CO exceedences
will not occur, or that the Net New Development seeking approval will not
contribute to the predicted CO violation, or that any potential CO additions for
each Net New Development have been or will be mitigated, subject to City
approval (subsequent to review and comment by FDEP and DERM), prior to
issuance of building permits for the particular Net New Development.
b. Withhold the issuance of any building permits for Net New Development within
the sub -area that shows CO exceedences.
6 02-1307
8. Based upon the transportation impacts generated by Total Allowable Development for
Increment II, pay or contract to pay $2,458,970 (proportionate share in 2002 dollars), to
be expended on transportation improvements, including but not limited to:
a. A contribution to Miami -Dade County for a planned east/west expansion to the
Metro -Rail or other premium transit service designed to relieve congestion on the
836 corridor; or,
b. Pedestrian and alternative transportation mode improvements within the DDRI
study area (in the event that additional person trip capacity has been added to
the SR 836 corridor prior to the Increment II development program reaching 52
percent of the person trip capacity threshold). This information shall be bi-annually
updated and submitted as part of the Bi -Annual Status Report included in Condition
16 below.
The Applicant shall pay or contract to pay the proportionate share amount stated above
for either options a. or b. within 60 days from the date of issuance of Certificates of
Occupancy for more than 52 percent of the Total Allowable Development.
9. The Applicant shall continue to advocate, market and implement TDM strategies within
the DDRI boundaries such as the Downtown Shuttle System (which includes the existing
Brickell and Flagler Shuttle Program) connecting the Omni, CBD and Brickell areas. This
information shall be bi-annually updated and submitted as part of the Bi -Annual Status
Report included in Condition 16 below.
10. Have the authority to assess development for its proportionate share of the cost of
improvement and/or services necessary to monitor and/or mitigate any adverse impacts.
The City shall also have authority to assess development its proportionate share of the
costs attributable to preparation of the master plan, the Application for Development
Approval, and this Development Order, as well as the future costs of reviewing individual
development applications, monitoring compliance with this Development Order, and any
other costs reasonably related to the administration and implementation of this
Development Order. If necessary, the City shall establish a procedure for rebating any
funds collected in excess of those funds attributable to a particular development and
necessary to implement this Development Order or any ordinance or procedure required
to monitor and enforce compliance with this Development Order and to mitigate the
impacts of Total Allowable Development.
11. Establish May 28, 2009 as the date until which the City agrees that the Downtown
Miami -Increment II Development of Regional Impact shall not be subject to down -zoning,
unit density reduction, or intensity reduction, unless the City can demonstrate that
substantial changes in the conditions underlying the approval of the development order
have occurred, or that the development order was based on substantially inaccurate
information provided by the Applicant, or that the change is clearly essential to the public
health, safety or welfare.
THE CITY SHALL:
12. Withhold the issuance of building permits for Net New Development if the Applicant has
been determined not to be in compliance with Condition 8, above.
7 02-1307
13. The City shall monitor the capacity of Total Allowable Development by reserving the
amount of Development Credits necessary for Net New Development at a time, to be
determined by the City, prior to or coincident with approval of a building permit or Major
Use Special Permit. The City shall place reasonable time limits on all building permits
and Major Use Special Permits to assure that construction progresses within a
reasonable period of time after approval to prevent stockpiling of reservations for
Development Credits. The time period established by the City shall take into account
the size of the proposed Net New Development in relationship to the time necessary to
begin construction.
14. Upon the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy for any Net New Development, the City
shall make appropriate subtractions from the amount of Total Allowable Development
under this Development Order. No Certificates of Occupancy shall be issued for Net
New Development which would, in the aggregate, exceed the amount of Total Allowable
Development under this Development Order. Total Allowable Development will be
limited to:

17. Enforce the requirements of the Miami -Dade County Shoreline Development Review
Ordinance (85-14) for all subsequent developments within the Shoreline Development
boundary.
18. The City shall not violate any of the conditions of this Development Order or otherwise
fail to act in substantial compliance with this Development Order or permit any property
9 02-130'7
owner within the boundaries covered by this Development Order to violate any of the
provisions of this Development Order. In the event any entity controlled by the Applicant
and/or the City or any permittee or landowner of any Parcel of Land violates (hereinafter
"violator") the provisions of this Development Order, the City shall stay the effectiveness
of this Development Order as to the Parcel of Land in which the violative activity or
conduct has occurred and withhold further permits, approvals, and services for
development in said Parcel of Land upon passage of any appropriate resolution by the
City, adopted in accordance with this section, finding that such violation has occurred.
The violator will be given written notice by the City that states: 1) the nature of the
purported violation, and 2) that unless the violation is cured within 30 days of said notice,
the City will hold a public hearing to consider the matter within 60 days of the date of
said notice. In the event the violation is not curable in 30 days, the violator's diligent
good faith efforts, as determined by the City, to cure the violation within that period will
obviate the need to hold a public hearing and this Development Order will remain in full
force and effect unless the violator does not diligently pursue the curative action to
completion within a reasonable time, in which event the City will give 15 days notice to
the violator of its intention to stay the effectiveness of this Development Order and
withhold further permits, approvals, and services to the Parcel of Land in which the
violation has occurred and until the violation is cured. The terms of this paragraph may
be modified from time to time by written agreement by the DDA, the City, and Council
staff, to enable the City to enforce the terms of this Development Order to the fullest
extent, while providing due process to all developers under this Development Order.
19. The Planning Director, City of Miami Planning and Zoning, is hereby designated to
monitor compliance with all conditions of this Development Order and shall have the
duty and authority to interpret the provisions of this Development Order and to
promulgate rulings, regulations, and procedures necessary to implement it, provided the
same are not inconsistent with the terms hereof or of F.S. 380.06 (2002), or duly
promulgated and adopted rules there under. Appeals to decisions of the Planning
Director may be filed pursuant to procedures set forth in Article 18 of Ordinance 11000,
the Zoning Ordinance of the City of Miami, Florida, as amended. Any noncompliance
shall be subject to the provisions of Condition 18 herein.
20. Continue to coordinate with the City's Police Department to ensure adequate provision of
police services for the project.
21. Continue to work with the City's Fire Department to ensure the adequate provision of
fire/rescue services necessary to serve the project.
22. Collaborate with the Miami -Dade County School Board and other appropriate public
school providers by providing planning information and information on Net New
Development of residential units, to address concerns regarding the availability and
access to public student stations for students from future residential development within
the project area. Pursuant to Chapter 163.31777 the City shall adopt an interlocal
agreement with the Miami -Dade County School Board by March 1, 2003 to establish a
process to determine the need and timing of additional facilities and services.
23. Withhold the issuance of any building permits that would not ensure the preservation of
the Miami Circle Archeological site as a preservation area.
10 02-1307
24a. Work with Miami -Dade County Emergency Management and the Miami -Dade County
School Board to ensure adequate shelter capacity for the occupants of new residential
units within the DRI. The Applicant shall either: 1) construct new schools according to
emergency shelter specifications to meet the demand generated by the DRI, or, when
located in existing buildings, retrofit space to meet emergency shelter specifications; or
2) develop a mechanism whereby developers of residential projects within the DRI
boundaries contribute to a fund to increase shelter capacity, based on $200.00 per
shelter space for the 2,500 spaces of shelter demand created by the DRI, or $70.00 per
residential unit constructed within the DRI. The funds shall be provided by the developer
of the residential project at the time of building permit issuance, and shall be spent only
for shelter space within the City of Miami.
24b. The Florida Building Code and Chapter 235.26 Subsection (8), of the Florida Statutes,
require School Boards and Community College Boards to have appropriate core facility
areas designated as "Enhanced Hurricane Protection Areas" included in their facilities.
Such requirements ensure that all future facilities within the project area will be
constructed to include appropriate hurricane protection areas. If adequate school
capacity for this project is constructed by Miami -Dade County Public Schools, or other
public school facility providers, to meet emergency shelter specifications, or if additional
shelter space is provided by other public facilities including Miami -Dade Community
College, satisfying emergency shelter specifications, or, if a public hurricane shelter
space deficit is shown no longer to exist within Miami -Dade County, then, the
requirements of the Applicant to provide emergency shelter capacity shall be removed.

development order for property covered by this Development Order, notwithstanding the
existence of this Development Order. In the event that such an individual development

Downtown Miami Development of Regional Impact
Analysis and Recommendation
APPLICATION NUMBER: 2002-0047
The Downtown Miami DRI was originally approved by the City of Miami on
December 10, 1987 through a Master and Increment I Development Order.
As indicated in the Impact Assessment Report many of the project's impacts
were dealt with at that time. The development order conditions contained in
the Master Development Order required the applicant to submit this
Application for Development Approval for construction of Increment Il.
The proposed development program for Increment II of the Downtown DRI
includes: 1.3 million square feet of office, 750,000 square feet of retail, 1,500
hotel rooms, 7,500 residential units, 500,000 of convention space, 750,000
square feet of industrial, 450,000 square feet of institutional, and 60,000
seats for attraction uses.
As part of the DRI coordination process, the Downtown Miami Areawide —
Increment II DRI Impact Assessment Report recommends a total of 36
conditions, some of which are considered standard compliance items, such
as the submittal of bi-annual reports to document the status of the project.
However, there are also project -specific conditions such as transportation
improvements.
THE CITY OF MIAMI WILL ALSO HAVE TO COMPLY WITH CERTAIN
CONDITIONS OF THE DEVELOPMENT ORDER, PRIMARILY THE CITY
WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR MONITORING THE PROJECT IN ORDER
TO CONFIRM THE DEVELOPER'S COMPLIANCE WITH SPECIFIC
CONDITIONS AND WITHHOLD SUBSEQUENT APPROVALS, IF
NECESSARY.
In reviewing the proposed Downtown Miami Areawide — Increment II DRI, the
following findings have been made:
It is found that the proposed Development program will:
1. Generate a total of up to 9,221 direct and 4,296 indirect new jobs, in the
region, with an estimated value of approximately $357 million (2002 dollars)
in total annual wages. In addition, approximately 8,967 construction
employees will be needed for the project.
2. Provide as much as $607 million in value added to the regional economy
each year.
02-1307
3. Provide to the City of Miami and Miami -Dade County an estimated $89.6
million in ad valorem taxes on an annual basis.
4. The proposed project, at completion, could have the following adverse
regional impacts at build -out if not mitigated through the conditions imposed
in the attached Development Order:
a. produce an average potable and non -potable water demand of 2.8
million gallons per day (GD);
b. produce an average wastewater demand of 942,000 gallons per day
(GD);
c. generate an average 57 tons per day of solid waste; and
d. create 13,999 new external PM peak hour trips.
Based on consideration of the above-specified positive and potential negative
regional impacts, it is the recommended the Application for Development
Approval for the Downtown Miami Areawide — Increment II DRI be APPROVED,

PART 1 SPECIFIC PROJECT DESCRIPTION
A. Describe and discuss in general terms all major elements of the
proposed development in its completed form. Include in this
discussion the proposed phases (or stages) of development (not to
exceed five years), magnitude In the appropriate units from Chapter
28-24, F.A.C., where applicable, and expected beginning and
completion dates for construction.
Background
The area of the DDRI that is downtown Miami constitutes the earliest
origins of the City of Miami. Since the tum of the century, the land where
the Miami River meets Biscayne Bay has been the center of economic,
civic, and social life for the residents of this part of South Florida. The
vitality and vibrancy of the city is reflected in its urban core: through the
city's towering office and residential buildings, its active markets, streets,
and plazas, and its tropical waterfront location.
The DDRI area includes all of the conventional components of a major
regional center. Located, within the DDRI boundaries are waterside
parks, theaters, arenas, museums, libraries, local, state, and federal
courthouses, a community college, and the government seat of Miami -
Dade County. The DDRI area is estimated to include 10,500,000 square
feet of office space, 2,000,000 square feet of retail space, 6,000
residential units, and 4,600 hotel rooms. This area is served by
highways, limited access freeways, heavy and light rail transit service,
and a bus network, as well as an international seaport and international
airport.
The prosperity and health of the Miami -Dade County region is directly and
inextricably tied to the prosperity of the downtown area. The downtown
area serves as the backbone of Miami's urban core, offering the greatest
opportunity for a truly mixed-use community. This community is bound by
integrated public spaces, which provide opportunities for the interaction
and congregation of all of the City and region's citizens. Downtown Miami
is the most easily identifiable location for both residents and visitors to
imagine when thinking about the City of Miami. The downtown is the
most efficient location for growth. It is a central location served by all
modes of transit and equally accessible to the broadest range of
commuters, residents, and workers. The area is currently served by all
Downtown Development Auf mty Downtown Miami DRU Update
Question 10 — General Project Description Page 10-1
02-1307
forms of public and private infrastructure, and requires minimal amount of
alteration to the environment, given its present status as urban land.
Future growth and development in the area of the DDRI is an emphasized
priority of local and regional plans, as demonstrated by its inclusion in
Miami -Dade County's Urban Infill Area, the City of Miami's Transportation
Concurrency Exception Area (TCEA), the City's Special Transportation
Area (STA), and the South Florida Regional Planning Council's (SFRPC)
Eastward Ho! Initiative. In addition, to recognize the impact of the DDRI
area's transit services, Miami -Dade County has granted specialized level
of service to roadways adjacent to transit facilities and has adopted them
as a part of their Comprehensive Development Master Plan.
Future development in downtown is vital to maintaining and improving the
region's health and prosperity. The major land uses of downtown Miami -
office, residential, and commercial - are in constant transition as
technological and economic factors affect the demand for the type,
location, and amount of these products. Redevelopment and new
development are the only courses for responding to these market trends
and ensuring that downtown Miami can provide the correct supply to meet
today and tomorrow's demand.
Proiect DescriDtion
The Downtown Development of Regional Impact (DDRI) encompasses
the area of intensive urban development in the City of Miami that is under
the jurisdiction of the Downtown Development Authority (DDA), with the
exception of the area between NE/NW 5"' Street and 1-395 known as Park
West. In lieu of a master plan of development, the DDRI is divided into
three areas: Omni, Central Business District, and Brickell. These areas
contain urban and high intensity land uses, including high intensity
commercial and government office space, high intensity residential units,
hotels, institutional uses, and attraction/recreational uses. As the central
business district and downtown area for a large city and metropolitan
area, the project contains numerous public facilities (municipal, state, and
federal as well as institutional) and regional activity centers.
The project area contains a total of approximately 903 acres of land'
including approximately 78 acres currently zoned and developed as City
parks.
'The calculation of land area includes 64 acres of land which has recently been included in the jurisdiction
of the DDA. This area, between 2nd Avenue Northeast and 41" Avenues Northeast and 174" Street Northeast
and 24' Street Northeast is illustrated in Figure 10-1, DDRI Boundary, as 'Proposed Expansion Area.'

Figure 10-1, DDRI Boundary, presents an aerial photograph of the site
j showing the general location. The adjacent land uses are generally
residential of varying intensity. The Southeast Overtown / Park West
area north and west of the Central Business District includes other urban
land uses including office, industrial, institutional, and attraction/
recreation.
Table 10-1, Downtown DRI Development Program, outlines the type
and intensity of land uses in increment I and Increment If of the DDRI.
The DDRI master development order and Increment I development order
were originally adopted by the City of Miami Commission in 1987. The
approved master development order and Increment I development order
specify the total amount of development planned for each land use
category but provide flexibility for development located anywhere within
the project area, subject to local land development regulations. The
original development order has been amended eight times. None of the
changes was found to constitute a substantial deviation per Chapter 380,
F.S. Approved Increment I and proposed Increment 11 ' development
programs specify the type and intensity of land use in downtown Miami
through May 28, 2009.
Development under Increment I of the DDRI is currently underway and
will continue until May 28, 2003. It is possible that as of May 28, 2003,
unreserved development credit from the Increment I development
program will still exist. It is the intention of the applicant and
encompassed within the analysis of this application that this unreserved
development credit will be transferred into Increment 11 of this application.
B. Provide a breakdown of the existing and proposed land uses on the
site for each phase of development through completion of the
project. The developed land uses should be those identified in
Section 380.0651, F.S. and Chapter 28-24, F.A.C. Use Level 111 of The
Florida Land Use and Cover Classification System: A Technical
Report (September 1985), available from each regional planning
council. Refer to Maps D (Existing- Land Use) and H (Master
Development Plan). Use the format below and treat each land use
category as mutually exclusive unless otherwise agreed to at the
pre -application conference.
As per the Agreement to Delete Questions from the Pre -application
Conference held at the South Florida Regional Planning Council on
March 14, 2001, a response to section 10.1.13 is not required.

As per the Agreement to Delete Questions from the Pre -application

E. Describe, in general terms, how demand for this project was
determined.
The DDRI Increment 11 development program comprises four primary
development components: office, retail, residential, and hotel. The
methodology for determining total demand by use is summarized as
follows:
Office Demand
Demand for office space in downtown Miami is heavily influenced by the
region's office -related employment growth. Office employment growth is
generally characterized by the Finance, Insurance, and Real Estate
(FIRE) industry sector as well as specific employment within the Services
sector. As displayed in Table 10-2, Office Supply and Demand Profile,
from 1990 to 2000, Miami -Dade County's office -employment increased
from an estimated 93,000 to 127,000, or an increase of 3.1 percent per
year. The employment trend is anticipated to continue during the next
five to ten years.
From 1970 to 1985, downtown Miami increased its office supply from
roughly 4 million square feet to nearly 10.5 million square feet, or an
average annual increase of 400,000 square feet. Refer to Table 10-2,
Office Supply and Demand Profile. Accordingly, from 1985 to 2000,
downtown Miami's office supply increased from roughly 10.5 million to
12.5 million square feet, which represents an average annual increase of
130,000 square feet. Net absorption of office space, however, reached
Downtown Development Autlionty Downtown Miami DRI update
Question 10 — General Project Description Page 10.6
02-1307
nearly 3.0 million square feet (or an average 200,000 square feet
annually) during the past 15 -years, largely the result of a 25 percent
vacancy rate during the late 1980's/ early 1990's that decreased to
approximately 10 percent by 2000. Importantly, net absorption of office
space reached nearly 400,000 square feet per year from 1997 to 2000, a
trend that has supported the construction of nearly 1.0 million square feet
of new office space, all of which will be completed by 2004.
Presently, downtown Miami's office market comprises between 25 to 30
percent of the total office inventory for the County. Assuming the
County's office employment remains strong and, furthermore, downtown
Miami continues to capture its `fair share" of office demand over the long
term, allocating 3.2 million square feet of office (or more than 400,000
square feet annually) through 2009 is more than adequate for the
Increment II development program. These figures can be found in Table
10-3, Estimated Office Demand (through 2009).
Residential Demand
Residential growth in downtown Miami accelerated significantly after
1980. This is evidenced by the fact that from 1980 to 2000, the
residential inventory (for -sale and rental) increased from approximately
1,450 units to more than 6,000 units, or an average of roughly 230 units
annually. Following a stagnant residential market during the early to mid -
1990's, development activity has strengthened considerably during the
past few years. More than 1,500 units have been built since 1995, with
an additional 1,500 units under construction and/or planned for
completion by 2005.
Strong employment growth downtown provided the impetus for residential
development. Although there is no quantitative data identifying the
number of employees working and living downtown, a recent DDA study
indicates that nearly 20 percent of downtown office workers indicate a
high-level of interest in living downtown. Additionally, through various
market surveys of for -sale developments, foreign buyers (either second
home or investor) have provided nearly equal support to housing
demand, predominately in the for -sale market.
Therefore, in an effort to determine the upper limit of residential growth for
downtown Miami, it is assumed that: 1) a maximum 25 to 30 percent of

indicates that nearly 20 percent of downtown office workers indicate a
high-level of interest in living downtown. Additionally, through various
market surveys of for -sale developments, foreign buyers (either second
home or investor) have provided nearly equal support to housing
demand, predominately in the for -sale market.
Therefore, in an effort to determine the upper limit of residential growth for
downtown Miami, it is assumed that: 1) a maximum 25 to 30 percent of

downtown employment growth will reside downtown and, 2) demand from
outside of the City will continue to provide substantial support. Therefore
the upper level of residential demand downtown will approximate 5,384
units through 2009. It is important to note that this is in addition to the
1,500 units currently planned for completion by 2005.
Table 10-4, Estimated Residential Demand (through 2009), provides
annual estimates for residential demand from 2001 through 2009.
Hotel Demand
Hotel development in downtown Miami experienced its strongest growth
from 1970 to 1985, increasing from an estimated 1,100 units to more than
4,600 units during the period, or an average of approximately 230 units
per year. From 1985 to 2000, hotel development slowed to slightly more
than 500 total new rooms. However, based upon current construction,
projects in planning, and recent completions, hotel development is once
again on the rise with the addition of more than 1,000 hotel rooms
anticipated by 2005.
Based upon stable employment growth forecasts for downtown Miami, an
allocation of 1,500 hotel rooms is provided for the Increment 11
development program.
Retail Demand
Downtown Miami comprises an estimated 2.0 million square feet of retail,
of which nearly 60 percent is assumed to have been built prior to 1970.
Retail development in downtown Miami has two primary components:
tourist -related retail and limited commercial support for office workers and
residents. Bayside Marketplace is the most recognized tourist -related
facility, with the remaining tourist -retail (electronics, apparel) scattered
throughout the central downtown core. Retail/commercial space
supporting the downtown office workers and residents primarily consists
of restaurants, with a limited amount of retail for convenience goods and
supplies.
As residential and office development continues within the downtown
area, retail development will inevitably expand. In fact, there already
appears to be at least 150,000 square feet of pent-up demand currently in
the market as displayed in Table 10-5, Estimated Retail Space Demand
(through 2009). Therefore, based upon employment and housing
projections for downtown Miami, as well as expenditure patterns for office
workers and residents, retail supply allocated to the Increment II
development program approximates 708,836 square feet.

Notes: 'Land costs are estimated and based upon a survey of current appraised land values for
land within the DDRI ($50-75 per square foot depending on development date) and on the
estimated average land requirements to implement the Increment 11 development
program.
Labor and Materials are based on construction estimates provided by RS Means, 2001.
3Interest is based upon a 5 -year amortization of 75% of all costs at 8 percent interest.
`Development and impact fees are based on 5 percent of land, labor, and material costs.

Table 10-6, Project Costs Table, is presented above. The Increment 11
development program will be developed as individual projects of
individual developers during the period between May 2003 and May
2009. Project costs are dependent on variables pertaining to the
individual projects as they are developed. The most significant of these
variables are the timing of development within the Increment 11 period, the
scope of individual developments, the location of individual
developments, and the capital market factors that affect project financing.
Therefore the dollar amounts provided in Table 10-6 are estimates only,
and could vary significantly from the final costs involved in the
implementation of Increment 11. The percentage of costs spent in the
region are not practical to estimate.

The applicant will utilize economic development enhancement resource
agencies and programs designed to involve small and minority
businesses in the development and expansion of permanent job
opportunities within the project. Examples of such agencies and
programs include, but are not limited to, those listed in Exhibit 10-1,
Economic Development Agencies and Job Training Providers. The
applicant will attempt to access the range of job skills available in the
region and promote greater labor force enhancement. The applicant will
provide information about employment and training agencies that

employment needs in the DDRI boundaries.
Downtown Miami is the central business district for Miami -Dade County,
and currently comprises a relatively balanced mix of commercial and
residential development. The area south of the Miami River (Brickell) has
experienced considerable development during the past several years,
adding quality office, residential, hotel and retail product to the area.
However, a considerable part of downtown, notably the central
(downtown) and northern (Omni) sectors, contains older and less
functional commercial and residential properties, with minimal new
development activity occurring within these particular areas during the
past several years.
Based upon the magnitude of anticipated development, the Increment 11
development program will have a tremendous impact on Downtown
Miami, as well as Miami -Dade County. Accordingly, the balanced
development mix within the urban core will provide for diverse job
opportunities among a broad range of skill and income levels. Most
notably, the Increment II development program will provide for.
Reinvestment in the Older Urban Core
Most of the recent downtown development has centered around
Brickell Avenue. This includes a variety of office, residential, hotel
and retail properties that has promoted the area as a desirable
urban location for workers, residents and visitors. To this extent,
the availability of land for future development is diminishing. As a
result, reinvestment downtown should gravitate to other areas,
namely the central and northern sectors.
• Job Creation for Existing Low to Moderate Income
Residences
As reinvestment pushes into the central and northern downtown
nodes, employment- opportunities for surrounding low to moderate
Downtown Development Authority Downtown Mini DRI Update
Question 10 — General Project Description Page 10-13
02-1307
income residences is significantly enhanced. As development
(and job creation) move closer to these residences, issues of
transportation and accessibility to jobs is significantly mitigated.
Appreciation in Land Value
Reinvestment in some of the economically depressed areas of
downtown will only have a positive impact on land/housing value
for existing low to moderate income owners. Whereas land and
building values have remained stagnant for many years,
reinvestment will only increase the existing residential and
commercial real estate values.
Development of Affordable Housing
Investment in the central downtown area largely comprises of tax
credit development and rehabilitation, which has helped to provide
better housing at lower costs. The increment II development
program assumes considerable on-going development of
affordable housing.
PART 2 CONSISTENCY WITH COMPREHENSIVE PLANS
A. Demonstrate how the proposed project is consistent with the local
comprehensive pian and land development regulations. Indicate
whether the proposed project will require an amendment to the
adopted local comprehensive plan, including the capital
improvements element. If so, please describe the necessary
changes.
The DDRI is consistent with the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood
Plan. In particular, the DDRI promotes or pursues the ,following goals,
objectives, or policies:
Goal LU -1
Maintain a land use pattern that (1) protects and enhances the
quality of life in the city's residential neighborhoods; (2) fosters
redevelopment and revitalization of blighted or declining areas;
(3) promotes and facilitates economic development and the
growth of job opportunities in the city; (4) fosters the growth and
development of downtown as a regional center of domestic and
International commerce, culture and entertainment; (5) promotes
the efficient use of land and minimizes land use conflicts; and (6)
protects and conserves the city's significant natural and coastal
resources.

Question 10 — General Project Description
Downtown Miami DRI update
Page 10-14
02-1307
The DRRI is consistent with the Miami Comprehensive Neiahborhood
Plan's first Future Land Use goal in its entirety. The DDRI is focused
on improving the process for development in the heart of Miami's
urban core, where infrastructure is most economically available;
preexisting, urban, mixed -used environments currently exist, and new
investment is needed and would succeed. All development that
occurs as a part of the DDRI will comply with all local land
development regulations and will be consistent with the Miami
Comprehensive Neiahborhood Plan.
Objective LU -1.1
Ensure that land and development regulations are consistent
with fostering a high quality of life in all areas, including the
timely provision of public facilities that meet or exceed the
minimum level of service (LOS) standards adopted in the
Capital Improvements Element (CIE) of the Miami
Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan.
The DDRI program includes 7,500 new residential units in the
Brickell, Central Business, and Omni areas that will enhance
urban residential opportunities.
Objective LU -1.2
Promote the redevelopment and revitalization of blighted,
declining or threatened residential, commercial and industrial
areas.
The DDRI area includes some declining or threatened residential
or. commercial areas in the Omni section and neighborhoods
above the Omni that will benefit from the investments that new
development will bring.
Objective LU -1.3
The City will continue to encourage commercial, office, and
industrial development within existing commercial, office,
and industrial areas; increase the utilization and enhance the
physical character and appearance of existing buildings; and
concentrate new commercial and industrial activity in areas
where the capacity of existing public facilities can most or
exceed the minimum standards for Level of Service (LOS)
adopted in the Capital Improvement Element (CIE).
The DDRI intends to concentrate new commercial, office, and
residential activities in the traditional urban core of Miami, where.
Downtown Developmemt Authority Downtown Miami DRI update
Question 10 — General Project Description Page 10-1s
02-007
there presently exist commercial, office, residential, and light
industrial areas.
Objective LU -1.4
Continue the growth of Downtown Miami, expand its role as a
center of domestic and International commerce, further Its
development as a regional center for the performing arts and
other cultural and entertainment activities and develop a
urban residential base.
The DDRI seeks to directly fulfill the intentions of this objective.
Continue the growth of Downtown Miami, expand its role as a
center of domestic and international commerce, further its
development as a regional center for the performing arts and other
cultural and entertainment activities and develop an urban
residential base.
Objective LU -1.5
Land development regulations will protect the city's unique
natural and coastal resources, and its historic and cultural
heritage.
All development that will be a part of the DDRI will comply with all
City of Miami land development regulations, including those
intended to protect natural, coastal, historic, and cultural
resources.
• Objective LU -1.6
Regulate the development or redevelopment of real property
within the city to insure consistency with the goals,
objectives and policies of the Comprehensive Plan.
All development that will be a part of the DDRI will also comply
With all regulations intended to ensure consistency with the Miami
Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan.
• Goal HO -2
Achieve a livable city center with a variety of urban housing
types for persons of all income levels.
The DDRI is a part of the City of Miami's efforts to create a livable
downtown with a variety of urban housing types.
Downtown Development Auftrity Down mn Miami DRI update
Question 10 — General Project Description Page 10-16
021307
• Goal CI -1
Adhere to sound fiscal management policies that ensure the
timely provision of public facilities required to maintain existing
public infrastructure, that meet the need for public facilities
resulting from future development and redevelopment, and that
enable the provision of public capital facilities that enhance the
quality of life within the city.
The DDRI is an integral part of the City of Miami's planning
preparations for ensuring the timely provision of public capital
facilities.
• Objective CI -1.3
Ensure that future development and redevelopment pay an
equitable, proportional share of the cost of public facilities
required to maintain adopted LOS standards.
The DDRI includes a mechanism for ensuring that future
development pay an equitable, proportional share of the cost of
public facilities.
Due to the unique circumstances involving the nature and intent of the
DDRI, no comprehensive amendment is required for the approval of the
DDRI itself. Individual development projects that occur under the domain
of this project may require specific comprehensive plan amendments.
Similarly, all permitting related to the development of individual projects
within the DDRI will occur within a schedule associated with each
individual project. No specific permitting is required for the master DDRI.
B. Describe how the proposed development will meet goals and
policies contained in the appropriate Regional Comprehensive
Policy Plan.
The DDRI supports the following goals and policies of the Strategic
Regional Policy Plan for South Florida (SRPP):
Strategic Regional Goal 2.1
Achieve long-term efficient and sustainable development
patterns by guiding new development and redevelopment
within the region to areas which are most intrinsically suited
for development, including areas (1) which are least exposed
to coastal storm surges; (2) where negative impacts on the
natural environment will be minimal; and (3) where public
`,. Downtown Development AuV10 tY
Question 10 — General Project Descries
Downtown Miami DRI Update
Page 1047
02—t307
facilities and services already exist, are programmed or, on
an aggregate basis, can be provided most economically.
The DDRI area is urbanized, so negative impacts on the natural
environment will not occur. The required public services already
exist so their provision can be realized most economically.
Policy 2.1.6
Direct future development and redevelopment first to
areas served by existing infrastructure and to other
locations that are suitable for development, as identified
in their comprehensive plans. In particular, local
governments should coordinate with state officials to
identify public transportation corridors and to promote
development along those corridors by implementing
investment strategies for providing infrastructure and
services which are consistent with them.
The DDRI area is served by all of the City and County's
infrastructure and serves as the central hub for the City's
public and private transportation systems and corridors.
• Strategic Regional Goal 2.2
Revitalize deteriorating urban areas.
The. DDRI will significantly revitalize a deteriorated urban area.
Policy 2.2.1
Give priority to development in areas that are blighted,
characterized by underdevelopment or underemployment
and are in need of redevelopment; among these,
secondary priority should be given to areas within which
adequate infrastructure and support services are either
programmed or available.
The DDRI will prioritize development in urban areas that are in
need of rehabilitation by removing the burden of the state
approval process from local developers.
• Policy 2.2.3
Support the establishment of special level of service
standards for localized areas (such as transportation
concurrency exception areas) where designed to
accomplish such growth management objectives as infill
Downtown Development Authority Downtown Miami DM Update
u Question 10 — General Project Description Page 10.18

development on passed -over urban sites, redevelopment
of deteriorated areas, establishment of long-term
employment opportunities in neighborhoods having high
unemployment, or the evolution of planned urban or
suburban centers served by public transit.
The entire DDRI area is within a Transportation Concurrency
Exception Area (TCEA) adopted by the City of Miami.
Policy 2.2.4
Continue the development of the urban core concept and
criteria in order to a) provide incentives for high density,
urban centers; b) allow for flexibility in the expenditure of
transportation system capital funds to create a more
balanced mix of highways, transit and goods movement;
and c) identify areas and corridors of high-quality transit
service in which transportation levels of service
standards may be based on person trips rather than
vehicle trips.
The DDRI is the manifestation of the City of Miami and Miami
DDA's efforts to encourage the urban core concept.
Policy 2.2.5
Develop and implement incentives to attract public and
private sector investment and the placement of major
cultural facilities to downtown areas.
The incentive of the DDRI for development in the downtown is
the removal state approval for individual projects. This
removal makes the development process faster and less
uncertain.
Policy 2.2.6
Encourage the use of the downtown or areawide DRI as a
planning tool for downtown areas and promote the
increased participation of all affected parties in the
process. Support the designation of Urban Central
Business Districts and Regional Activity Centers in
accordance with Section 28-24.014(10), F.A.C.
The incentive of the DDRI for development in the downtown is
the removal of state regulatory approval for individual projects.
Downtown Development Authority Downtown Miami DRI Late
Question 10 — General Project Description Page 10-19
02-1307
This removal of state regulatory approval the makes the
development process faster and less uncertain.
Strategic Regional Goal 2.3
Enhance the economic competitiveness of the region and
ensure the adequacy of its public facilities and services by
eliminating the existing backlog, meeting the need for growth
in a timely manner, improving the quality of services provided
and pursuing cost-effectiveness and equitability in their
production, delivery and financing.
The DDRI will enhance the economic competitiveness of the
region by preparing for the growth of development in a timely
manner.
• Policy 2.3.1
Establish a coherent vision of the region's land use and
infrastructure needs between now and the planning
horizon of the year 2015. In addition, extend the vision to
the year 2025, consistent with the region's estimates of
sustainable population In order to provide a framework for
long-term analysis.
The DDRI is based upon a thorough analysis of the future land
use needs for downtown Miami and is intended as the
preparation for the provision of efficient infrastructure to meet
these land use needs.
• Policy 2.3.5
Locate activity centers where appropriate infrastructure,
support service and affordable housing already exist or
are programmed, or where funding is otherwise
committed.
Appropriate infrastructure, support service and affordable
housing are in the DDRI boundaries or are in very close
proximity to the DDRI boundaries.
• Policy 2.3.8
Encourage the use of coordinated regulatory and
programmatic approaches and financial incentives to
promote compact, efficient urban growth patterns.

PART 3 DEMOGRAPHIC AND EMPLOYMENT INFORMATION
A. Complete the following Demographic and Employment Information
tables.
Prosect Demo -graphics
The proposed DDRI development program provides for a maximum
development of 7,500 residential units. The majority of the housing units
will comprise mid to high-density properties (no single-family assumed),
of which roughly two-thirds is projected to be for -sale and the remainder
rental.
The prospective housing development downtown is anticipated to attract
a mix of residents. The rental product will likely attract primary
professionals employed within the immediate area. For -sale housing
should continue to attract a mix of primary professionals, empty nesters,
and foreign buyers. Table 10-7, Population and Demographic
Information, provides a break down of population and demographic
components for the prospective housing development.
Project Employment
Direct Construction jobs created from the development of the increment li
development program will total roughly 6,500 FTE's assuming maximum
build -out by 2009. This is based upon development costs (acquisition
and construction) of roughly $1.2 billion and assumes: 1) approximately
60 percent of hard costs will be spent in labor, 2) average annual
construction wages of $34,336 in Miami -Dade County (State of Florida
1999 ES202); and, 3) a 1.4 times benefittoverhead multiplier per worker.
Table 10-8, Estimated Employment by incofne Range, provides a
distribution of these workers by income. The income categories shown
are those used in the East Central Florida Regional Planning Council
methodology utilized in their affordable housing analysis.

PART H — PROJECT IMPACTS AND ISSUES
A. ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES
1. Air Quaft
The air quality impact will be analyzed using the Florida Department of
Environmental Protection's Guidelines for Evaluating the Air Quality Impacts of Indirect
Sources, June 1994. This analysis will include intersections, transportation
improvements as identified in Question 21 of the application for development
approval (ADA) and parking facilities associated with the project to demonstrate that
the National Ambient Air Quality Standards for Carbon Monoxide will not be
violated as a result of this project. This air quality impact analysis will be submitted
to all air quality review agencies pursuant to Conditions 5-7 in Part V of the Impact
Assessment Report.
2. Water Ouality
a. Groundwater
Issues regarding groundwater were addressed during review of Increment I.
The applicant and reviewing agencies agreed to delete questions regarding
groundwater. The project is not within a wellfield protection area for potable
water supplies. The area is composed of urban land along the Biscayne Bay
shoreline at the mouth of the Miami River. While a freshwater lens exists
between the ground surface and the subterranean influence of Biscayne Bay and
the Atlantic Ocean, it is not adequate for use as a potable water supply. Parts of
the area have been the subject of soil remediation due to their former use as a
petroleum storage facilities. However, due to the hydrological connection of the
sites groundwater to the Biscayne Bay Aquatic Preserve and Surface Water
Improvement and Management (SWIM) Area, care should be taken to prevent
groundwater contamination.
b. Surface Waters
Issues regarding surface waters were addressed during review of Increment I.
The applicant and reviewing agencies agreed to delete questions regarding
surface wafters. The land area affected by the Development of Regional Impact
contains no fresh surface waters. The applicant proposes to construct facilities
within the Biscayne Bay Aquatic Preserve and SWIM Area. Despite the urban
nature of the surrounding land, these waters are considered to be a Natural
Resource of Regional Significance and habitat area for the endangered West
Indian Manatee. The applicant proposes no potential point sources of
contaminants to these waters from the stormwater system. Nevertheless, care
should be taken during the construction period not to introduce sources of
contamination or increased turbidity to the Aquatic Preserve.
6
02 - t307- 7-
3. Land and Soils
77
Issues regarding soils were addressed during review of Increment I. The applicant
and reviewing agencies agreed to delete questions regarding soils. The terrain in the
area, like that of most of the region, is relatively flat Soils on the surface are the
result of fill to develop former wetlands or pavement from a succession of previous
urban uses. Existing regulations for construction permitting within the jurisdiction
of Miami -Dade County Department.of Environmental Resources Management will
adequately address any future issues related to fill materials.
4. Flood Prone Areas
Issues regarding floodplain were addressed during review of Increment I. The
applicant and reviewing agencies agreed to delete questions regarding floodplains.
Elevation in the project area varies from outside of the 500 year floodplain to within
the 100 year floodplain. Parts of the project area are in the FEMA 100 year floodplain
(Zone VE, Base Flood Elevation 15), and are inside the evacuation and storm surge
areas related to hurricanes as designated by Dade County Emergency Management
(Category 3, Hurricane Vulnerability Zone). The minimum floor elevation of
structures is proposed to be at least the base flood elevation. The storaiwater
management system will be designed to ensure that roadways do not flood in a 10
year/ day rainstorm event and that flood levels do not exceed the first floor in a 100
year/3 day rainstorm event Storm surge estimates for the project area's shorelines
range from as low as 3.7 feet NGVD in a Category 1 hurricane to as high as 10.3 feet
NGVD in a Category 5 storm, based on 1995 SLOSH models run by Post, Buckley
Schuh and Jernigan for the Dade County Metropolitan Planning Organization.
5. Vegetation and Wildlife
Issues regarding vegetation and wildlife were addressed during review of Increment
I. The applicant and reviewing agencies agreed to delete questions regarding
vegetation and wildlife. Due to the disturbed condition of the project area, wildlife
habitat has been significantly reduced from the property's natural state. Significant
habitat for listed species does not exist on the site. The West Indian Manatee has
been observed traveling through the project area in the Miami River. Existing
regulations for construction permitting within the jurisdiction of Miami -Dade
County Department of Environmental Resources Management will adequately
address any future issues related to protection of the manatee within the project
6. Wetland Resources
Issues regarding wetlands were addressed during review of Increment I. The
applicant and reviewing agencies agreed to delete questions regarding wetlands.
Land on the site adjacent to the shore has been filled and bulkheaded. Wetland
vegetation does not exist within the project area.
7. Hurricane Preparedness
The project area is located in a hurricane evacuation area (Category 3, Hurricane
Vulnerability Zone) as designated by Miami -Dade County Emergency Management
For Increment 11, the applicant proposes to develop an additional 7,500 dwelling
units in the Downtown Miami area. Increment I contain an additional 997
7
02-130'7
unreserved housing credits. Combined, the applicant proposes that 8,497. dwelling
units be added to the Downtown Miami area. This information from the Application
for Development Approval was modeled in the South Florida Regional Hurricane
Evacuation Study, April 1996 (Study). The resulting increase in out -of -county
evacuation clearance time (ECT) would be an estimated eighteen minutes, from 15.6
hours to 15.9 hours. Roadways carrying evacuees from the project area are
considered to be constrained roadways, meaning that additional capacity cannot be
accommodated within the rights-of-wayhureasmg the proportion of new residents
that shelter within Miami Dade County is the next logical mitigation measure to
reduce the potential increase in ECT.
The applicant has estimated an increased demand for public shelter space of between
1,762 and 2,192 persons as a result of this project. Miami Dade County has received
funding and is presently undertaking a program to retrofit nineteen public schools to
serve as additional evacuation shelters. Included in this is Booker T. Washington
High School, which will serve the downtown area and contain space for 3,000
evacuees. However, these nineteen additional shelters are needed to address the
existing shelter deficit in Miami -Dade County, and may not accommodate demand
from the new units.
8. Recreation and Open Space
Issues regarding recreation and open space were addressed during review of
Increment I. The applicant and reviewing agencies agreed to delete questions
regarding recreation and open space.
Open space is increased from 78 to 80.5 to incorporate the preservation of the Miami
Circle Archeological site from future development activities.
9. Historical and Archaeological Sites
Issues regarding historical and archaeological sites were addressed during review of
Increment I. The applicant and reviewing agencies agreed to delete questions
regarding historical and archaeological sites. An application has been submitted to
the National Parks Service in Washington D.C. to place the Miami Circle site on the
National Register of Historic Places. A determination has not yet been made. The
title for the Miami Circle site is currently held by the State of Florida and leased to
Miami -Dade County under a management contract to protect the site.
Condition 23 in Part V addresses the preservation of the Miami Circle site.
10. Hazardous Materials
Issues regarding hazardous materials were addressed during review of Increment I.
The applicant and reviewing agencies agreed to delete questions regarding
hazardous materials. Any development that uses, displays, handles, generates, or
stores hazardous ma+.'serials must comply with the regulations set forth by EPA, the
State of Florida„ and Miami -Dade County.

02-130'7
B. ECONOMY
1. Project Costs
The total project cost is estimated at approximately $3.395 billion. As shown in Table
2, 58 percent of the dollars spent on the project will be expended in the South Florida
region.
TABLE 2
PROJECT COSTS
(Million's of 2002 dollars)
• Insurance, taxes, development management
2. Permanent Employment
a. Economic Disparity
The Council's Economic Disparity Question was not required during the review
of Increment I. The applicant has included the Council's recommended
condition to encourage developers to involve economic development resource
agencies and programs, which promote small and minority businesses, in the
development and expansion of permanent job opportunities.
The Applicant plans to provide commercial tenants with information about
governmental agencies tasked with finding employment opportunities for the
economically disadvantaged and tenants. Success in this area will increase
regional employment levels, thus contributing to an increase in per capita
income for the Region The applicant will also submit bi-annual reports
documenting the success of minority participation
Condition 2 in Part V of this Assessment Report addresses the issue of social and
economic disparity.
b. Economic Impacts
The Applicant projects approximately 9,921 permanent jobs will be filled at
project completion in 2009- These projected new permanent jobs, organized by
SIC code, were introduced into the Regional Science Research Institute (RSRI)
regional input-output model, which produces an estimate of the overall annual
impact of the project on employment, the value of output, total wages and the
91
02-130'
total estimated value added for each County in the South Florida region. The
totals take into account both the direct and indirect impacts that new jobs and
new incomes have on the local economy.
As shown in Table 3, the results of the simulation indicate that the permanent
new employment (not including jobs created during the construction phases of
the project) could generate a total of up to 9,921 jobs in the region, with the
majority being located in Miami -Dade County. Although 9,921 estimated direct
jobs were projected for this project, there is potential for an additional 4,2%
indirect jobs. This employment for this project is estimated to generate
approximately $357 million (in 2002 dollars) in total annual wages. The project,
by its direct and indirect effects, could represent as much as $607 million in value
added to the regional economy each year. At completion, the project could
provide the City of Miami and Miami -Dade County an estimated $49.1 million
dollars and $40.5 million dollars respectively in ad valorem taxes on an annual
basis.
In addition, the Applicant projects a need for approximately 8,%7 Full Time
Equivalent (FTE's) construction employees during the build out period.
Although no estimates have been carried out to this effect, it is reasonable to
suppose that the induced effects from the jobs created during the construction
period, and the resulting increased income in the region, would have an impact
which is somewhat larger than that estimated for the direct project cost.

2. Health Care, Police and Fire
There. are nineteen hospitals or admitting medical facilities located within a 10 mile
radius of the Downtown DRI. Five major health service providers in close proximity
were notified about the proposed development program: 1) Cedars Medical Center,
2) Jackson Memorial Hospital, 3) Mercy Hospital, 4) Mount Sinai Medical Center,
and 5) Veterans Affairs Medical Center. Emergency Services are provided by the
City of Miami Fire -Rescue Department
a. Health Care
Letters received from the various healthcare providers indicated an ability to
adequately provides medical services for the anticipated development
13
02-1307
b. Police
A letter dated August 10, 2001 from Major Joseph T. Longuena of the Support
Services Section of the Miami Police Department stated that the current
personnel levels are adequate for projects in the Downtown Miami DRI project
area.
Typically, it is often difficult to project the exact impact a projected development
will place upon police service requirements at the time the original letter is
written in response to the ADA. The applicant will be required to continue to
coordinate with the City on future public safety needs to ensure adequate
provision of police service are maintained in this project area.
Condition 20 in Part V addresses the issue of Police services.
c. Fire Protection
A letter dated August 7, 2001 from Fire Chief William W. Bryson of the City of
Miami stated that additional Fire -Rescue resources would be required to
adequately protect the project area once developed. These resources include one
additional engine and one additional rescue unit.
Typically, it is often difficult to project the exact impact a projected development
will place upon fire/rescue service requirements at the time the original letter is
written in response to the ADA. The applicant will be required to continue to
coordinate with the City on future fire/rescue safety needs to ensure adequate
provision of fire/rescue service are maintained in this project area.
Condition 21 in Part V addresses the issue of Fire services.
d. Education
The Issues regarding Education were addressed during the review of Increment
I. The applicant was not required to address the Education question as during
this phase. The Miami -Dade County Public School District estimates that as
many as 2,550 new students will be generated by the proposed development.
Several new or expanded facilities have been completed or are under
construction along the periphery of the Downtown DRI. They include Eneida
Massas Harmer Elementary (constructed 1997), Ada Merritt Elementary (under
construction), Jose de Diego Middle (constructed 1999) and Booker T.
Washington Senior (addition constructed 2000). Currently, the only educational
facility situated with the Downtown DRI is Southside Elementary School where
no improvements have been programmed.
The Downtown Development Authority of Miami has been successful in creating
a Charter School but additional efforts are necessary to ensure adequate student
stations. Pursuant the Chapter 163.31777, each jurisdiction is required to enter
into an interlocal agreement with the School Board. It is recommended in
Condition 24 in Part V that the interlocal agreement establish a process to
determine the need and timing of additional facilities and services.

Issues regarding energy were addressed during review of Increment I. The
applicant and reviewing agencies agreed to delete questions regarding energy.
1. Existing Traffic
The traffic impact study area, as shown in Figure 3, is generally bounded on the
north by NW 201h Street, SW 15th Street on the south, I-95 on the west, and Biscayne
Bay on the east In addition, the study area includes any regionally significant
roadways where project traffic represents 5 percent or more of the adopted
maximum service volume. The maximum service volumes were taken from the
Florida Department of Transportation's (FDOT) 1998 Level of Service Standards and
Guidelines Manual. Level of Service (LOS) standards were based on the City of
Miami's adopted Comprehensive Plan. The majority of roadway segments were
found to operate at or better than the level of service standards with the exception of:
• SR 836 between NW 12th Avenue and NW 17th Avenue
• SR 836 between NW 42nd Avenue and NW 57th Avenue
• SR 836 between NW 72nd Avenue and SR 836
The Applicant has agreed to provide proportionate share funding in the amount of
$2,458,970 for improvements along the 836 corridor.
2. Background and Committed Development Traffic
Transportation capacity improvement projects within the study area were identified
from the Miami -Dade County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO)
Transportation Improvement Plan FY 2002-2006 for the first three years of the five-year
program. These transportation improvements include the following construction
projects scheduled for FY 2001-2006:
• Reconstruction of bridge from SR 836 over NW 3rd Avenue
• I.T.S. Freeway Management/System
• Reconstruction of East Bound Toll Plaza from NW 27th Avenue to NW 17th
Avenue
• Add 1 lane to create 7lanes on 1-95 from NW 3rd Avenue to Miami Avenue;
• Add 2 lanes to create 6 lanes SR 25 from SR 836 to W 19th Street
• Overhead signing on I-95 from South Dixie Highway to Broward County Line,
• Access improvements on I-95 from south of SR 836/I-395 to NW 17th Avenue,
• Interconnector from NW 271h Avenue to NW 171h Avenue;
• Reconstruction of SR 836/Lejeune Road interchange from NW 45th Avenue to
NW 27tb Avenue
• West Bound ramp construction on SR 836 from Lejuene Road to NW 37h
Avenue; and
• Widen to 3 lanes on NW 14th Street from NW 2nd Avenue to Biscayne Boulevard.
15
02-1307
Background traffic was determined from a historic growth factor calculated by
running the MTTMS model using 2000 and 2020 zonal data. A compounded annual
growth rate was calculated for each roadway segment by comparing the 2000 and
2020 model outputs. Committed development traffic forecasts were included for the
unbuilt Increment I and Southeast Overtown Park West DRI.
3. Project Traffic Impacts
The ITE Trip Generation, 6a Edition was used to determine the total PM peak hour
trips for the proposed land uses. Increment II trips were estimated by comparing the
trips generated by Increment I and 11 using current ITE 6th Edition rates and
equations. Adjustments were made to the model to ensure that the traffic analysis
zones in each of the Omni, CBD and Brickell areas accounted for existing and
approved Increment I development. The net external PM peak hour trips are for
Increment H are 13,999. Project trip generation totals are provided in the table below.

PART IV — CONSISTENCY WITH THE STRATEGIC REGIONAL POLICY PLAN FOR
SOUTH FLORIDA
Council staff has reviewed the application for consistency with the Strategic Regional Policy Plan
for South Florida (SRPP). Staff analysis finds that the proposed Downtown Miami Development of
Regional Impact is generally consistent with the following goals and policies of the Strategic
Regional Policy Plan for South Florida:
Strategic Regional Goal
2.1 Achieve long-term efficient and sustainable development patterns by guiding new
development and redevelopment within the region to areas which are most intrinsically
suited for development, including areas (1) which are least exposed to coastal storm
surges, (2) where negative impacts on the natural environment will be minimal, and (3)
where public facilities and services already exist, are programmed or, on an aggregate
basis, can be provided most economically.
Regional Policies
2.1.2 The following policies are intended to direct future development away from the areas
most vulnerable to storm surges.
b) Local governments should reduce allowable development densities in the Category 3
Hurricane Evacuation Area to densities no greater than the current use of the
property, if developed. Local governments should ensure that new development
and redevelopment in the Category 3 Hurricane Evacuation Area comply with the
National Flood Insurance Program, South Florida Building Code, and hurricane
shelter policies promoted by the SRPP. Local governments should consider
undeveloped land in the Category 3 Hurricane Evacuation Area for reservation as
agriculture or as recreation and open space, whether for public or private use. All
levels of government should place priority on the acquisition of this land for
restoration to its natural state.
2.1.6 Direct future development and redevelopment first to areas served by existing
infrastructure and to other locations that are suitable for development, as identified in
their comprehensive plans. In particular, local governments should coordinate with state
officials to identify public transportation corridors and to promote development along
those corridors by implementing investment strategies for providing infrastructure and
services which are consistent with them.
Strategic Regional Goal
3.1 Eliminate the inappropriate uses of land by improving the land use designations and
utilize land acquisition where necessary so that the quality and connectedness of Natural
Resources of Regional Significance and suitable high quality natural areas is improved.
Regional Policies
3.1.2 Direct inappropriate uses of land that are not consistent with the protection and
maintenance of natural resource values away from Natural Resources of Regional
Significance and suitable natural resource areas.
21
02-1307
3.1.6 Use incentives to direct inappropriate uses of land that are, -.,not consistent with the
protection and maintenance of natural system values away from Natural Resources of
Regional Significance and Suitable adjacent buffer areas. Such incentives should include
but not necessarily be limited to the following-
a)
ollowing
a) conservation easements;
b) mitigation banks;
c) tax breaks;
d) regional transferable development rights; and
e) transferable densities.
3.1.9 Degradation or destruction of Natural Resources of Regional Significance, including
listed species and their habitats will occur as a result of a proposed project only if:
a) the activity is necessary to prevent or eliminate a public hazard, and
b) the activity is in the public interest and no other alternative exists, and
c) the activity does not destroy significant natural habitat, or identified natural resource
values, and
d) the activity does not destroy habitat for threatened or endangered species, and
e) the activity does not negatively impact listed species that have been documented to
use or rely upon the site.
Stratezic Regional Goal
3.2 Develop a more efficient and sustainable allocation of the water resources of the region.
Regional Policies
3.2.4 Local governments shall implement water conservation measures including but not
necessarily limited to:'
a) use of xeriscape principals and the adoption of the South Florida Water Management
District Model Landscape Ordinance, or similar replacement;
b) utilization of native plant material as a first priority in landscape;
c) adoption of measurable water conservation objectives and programs for
implementation;
d) development and implementation of leak detection programs;
e) use of a conservation utility rate structure,
f) implementation of water loss prevention programs;
g) use of water saving devices and plumbing fixtures, and encourage retrofitting of
wafter saving devices and ultra-Iow flow fixtures,
h) reduce the use of potable water for irrigation;
i) utilization of reuse wafter wherever and whenever possible based upon the economic,
ecological and technical factors involved; and
P reduction in lawn and exotic turf cover in favor of native shrub and tree covered and
mulched areas.
3.2.5 Ensure that the recharge potential of the property is not reduced as a result of a proposed
modification in the existing uses by incorporation of open space, pervious areas, and
impervious areas in ratios which are based upon analysis of on-site recharge needs.
22
�T
02- 1307
329 Require all inappropriate inputs into Natural Resources of Regional Significance to be
eliminated through such means as; redirection of offending outfaills, suitable treatment
improvements or retrofitting options.
3.2.11 Existing stormwater outfalls that do not meet or improve upon existing water quality or
quantity criteria or standard, or cause negative impacts to Natural Resources of Regional
Significance or suitable adjacent natural buffer areas shall be modified to meet or exceed
the existing water quality or quantity criteria or standard. The modification shall be the
responsibility of the outfall operator, permittee or applicant.
Strategic Regional Goal
3.9 Restore and protect the ecological values and functions of the Everglades System.
Regional Policies
3.9.1 Direct development and uses of land that would be inconsistent with Everglades
restoration away from the Everglades System and adjacent Natural Resources of
Regional Significance.
3.9.6 Restore water quality throughout the system by:
a) requiring stormwater treatment and storage areas for existing and newly developed
areas and agricultural lands; and
b) protecting existing wetlands, native uplands and identified aquifer recharge areas.
Strategic Regional Goal
4.1 Achieve a competitive and diversified regional economy, including lower unemployment
rate and higher per capita income than the state and national average for Dade, Broward and
Monroe Counties through the achievement of cutting edge human resources, economic
development infrastructure and other resources to ensure a sustainable regional community.
Regional Policies
4.1.28 Encourage the investment in the land and infrastructure needed for sustainable economic
growth. Investments should include land for highway and mass transit corridors,
stations and public-private joint venture development opportunities.
4.129 Enhance capacity of South Florida facilities (convention centers, expo halls, trade zones,
hotel rooms, warehouse space, short-term office rentals, etc.) to ensure a premier role as
the international trade and marketing hub of the Americas.
Strategic Regional Goal
5.2 To enhance the regional transportation system's role in system -wide preparedness for
emergency situations.

5.2.5 Improve hurricane evacuation clearance times by encouraging capacity improvements on
major evacuations facilities in transportation plans and by developing emergency
operating plans for highways to increase functional capacity preceding storm landfall.
Strategic Regional Goal
6.1 Ensure the availability of adequate, affordable housing for very low, Iow, and moderate
income households within a reasonable commute distance of job centers.
Regional Policies
6.1.1 Development should provide adequate amounts of very low, low and moderate income
housing units that are readily accessible to employment centers, with priority for
development accessible by public transportation facilities.
6.1.2 Encourage the placement of very low, low and moderate income housing development
on infill parcels that are already linked to infrastructure and municipal services with
priority to such development on surplus municipal land, where appropriate.
6.1.3 Promote linkage programs which condition approvals for the development of high
revenue uses such as office and luxury housing upon development of very low, low and
moderate income housing. In particular, promote the inclusion of housing affordable to
very low, low and moderate income families in subdivisions.
6.1.7 Promote the provision of low income housing in a manner which reflects the relative
need of all groups in the community.
6.1.13 Employers should identify and assist where necessary in the provision of adequate
housing needs for seasonal workers.
Strategic Regional Goal
7.1 Direct future development away from the areas most vulnerable to storm surges.
Regional Policy
7.1.1 The following policies are intended to direct future development away from the areas
most vulnerable to storm surges.
b) Local governments should reduce allowable development densities in the Category 3
Hurricane Evacuation Area to densities no greater than the current use of the
property, if developed. Local governments should ensure that new development
and redevelopment in the Category 3 Hurricane Evacuation Area comply with the

estimated value of approximately $357 million (2002 dollars) in total annual wages. In
addition, approximately 8,%7 construction employees will be needed for the project.
• Provide as much as $607 million in value added to the regional economy each year.
• Provide to the City of Miami and Miami -Dade County an estimated total of $89.6 million
in ad valorem taxes on an annual basis.
Council staff evaluation indicates that the proposed project, at completion, would have the
following adverse regional impacts at build -out
• produce an average potable and non -potable water demand of 2,837,350 gallons per day
(GD);
• produce an average wastewater demand of 2,837,3500 GD;
• generate an average of 57.1 tons per day of solid waste; and
• create an average of 13,999 new adjusted external P.M. peak hour trips.
Recommendations
Based on consideration of the above-specified positive . and negative regional impacts, it is the
recommendation of the Council to the City of Miami Commission that the Application for
Development Approval for the Downtown Miami Areawide - Increment Il Development of

concentrations, implement an air quality monitoring and abatement program following
approval of the report pursuant to condition 4 above. The program may include the
following techniques:
a. Transportation Control Measures (TCM)
b. Physical planning measures (e.g. signalization, parking area locations, addition of
turn lanes, etc.)
c. The continuance of monitoring for specified sub -areas.
7. If the result of the air quality modeling study, as described in Condition 5, above, exceed
State standards for CO concentrations, do one of the following-
a.
ollowinga. Provide acceptable documentation which clearly indicates that CO exceedences
will not occur, or that the Net New Development seeking approval will not
contribute to the predicted CO violation, or that any potential CO additions for
each Net New Development have been or will be mitigated, subject to City
approval (subsequent to review and comment by FDEP and DEW, prior to
issuance of building permits for the particular Net New Development
b. Withhold the issuance of any building permits for Net New Development within
the sub -area that shows CO exceedences.
8. Based upon the transportation impacts generated by Total Allowable Development for
