It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached resolution
allocating the amount of $305,000 to the Downtown Development Authority for the
preparation of Increment II of the Downtown Miami Development of Regional Impact
(DRI).
BACKGROUND
The Downtown Miami Development of Regional Impact (DRI) first phase expires in
approximately three (3) years. The DRI assists developers in the development of
downtown by expediting the approval process and reducing their cost. It is recommended
by the City of Miami Planning and Zoning Department and the Miami Downtown
Development Authority (DDA) that the Downtown DRI be updated for Increment II.
The DDA is the applicant of record for the Downtown DRI. The estimated cost for
updating of the DRI by consultants is $305,000. The attached budget is the estimated
breakdown of the cost.
The amount of $305,000 would be allocated from the Downtown Development
Supplemental Fee for the administration and preparation of Increment II of the DRI. The
Planning and Zoning Department has verified with the Department of Management and
Budget that the funds are available. The fund is derived from administrative fees
collected from permit applicants for those projects deemed Developments of Regional
Impacts (DRI). The fees are intended to be allocated for administrative costs including
preparation of the DRI.
