Re: Objection to Ordinance 11715, Passed on Second Reading, October 13,1998
Dear Mayor Carollo and City Commissioners:
This letter constitutes a formal objection to the enactment of Ordinance 11715, amending
Article 6 of Zoning Ordinances 11000 to modify Section 602.10.4 "Off -Site Parking" to include
the G/I district adjacent to the Coconut Grove Central Commercial District. The ordinance was
passed at second reading on October 13, 1998 (See Agenda ITEM PZ-1 attached hereto as
Exhibit A).
This objection is submitted on behalf of Mr. David W. Swetland and Ms. Barbara Lange.
Mr. Swetland resides across Main Highway from the Coconut Grove Playhouse property in the
Camp Biscayne community. Ms. Lange resides in the Arbitare community which is directly
across Main Highway from the Playhouse. In 1997, they had been joined by Ms. Ester
Armbrister who prior to her passing resided in the long-established Coconut Grove residential
neighborhood adjoining the Playhouse property to the north and west. Each of these residents
has a fundamental interest in protecting the use, quiet enjoyment and value of their property, and
their views are shared by many of the residents in their respective neighborhoods.

BAKER & M19KENZIE
Mayor Joe Carollo and

There are several grounds, both legal and equitable, for the objection:
1. Mr. Swetland and Ms. Lange requested by letter dated April 4, 1997, that their
counsel "be notified of and given the opportunity to attend any meeting, workshop or hearing
which involves the future development and use of the Playhouse site" (See attached Exhibit B).
No such notice was provided either for the meeting of September 28, 1998, when the item was
purportedly continued or for the meeting of October 13, 1998 when the ordinance was passed.
Ms. Lange first heard of the scheduled hearing late in the morning of October 13, 1998, when
neither she nor her counsel was in a position to prepare and make a presentation at the hearing.
2. The second reading of the ordinance had been continued at the City Commission
meeting of July 21, 1998 to a date certain, "to SeRttember 22, 1998" (See attached Exhibit Q.
The purpose of the continuance was to have an "ad hoc committee" of interested citizens "study
and make recommendations" to the Commission; and Ms. Lange was one of the citizens
appointed (See attached Exhibit D). However, to the knowledge of Mr. Swetland and Ms.
Lange, the committee had not met or made any recommendation prior to the October 13, 1998
meeting. Moreover, the date certain City Commission meeting of September 22, 1998, was
simply canceled and, to the knowledge of Mr. Swetland and Ms. Lange, there was no notice as to
when the agenda items continued to the date certain of September 22, 1998, would be heard.
The notice provided by the City Clerk for the following City Commission meeting on September
28, 1998, was made pursuant to Resolution No. 98-825, adopted without prior notice on
September 8, 1998, which scheduled the meeting to convene at 1:00 p.m. without any mention of
the canceled September 22, 1998 meeting (See attached Exhibit E). Accordingly, there was no
notice either to Mr. Swetland or to Ms. Lange that the continued item would be brought up
without the ad hoc committee recommendations on September 28, 1998; and there was also no
notice that the item would be continued until the City Commission meeting of October 13, 1998
(See Exhibit F). As a matter of both law and equity, the second reading and public hearing
should have been advertised so that Mr. Swetland and Ms. Lange could have fully presented
their position.
3. The Planning Advisory Board, after hearing the presentation from Mr. Swetland,
Ms. Armbrister and Ms. Lange voted unanimously against enactment of the ordinance. Since
then, there has been no presentation on behalf of Mr. Swetland and Ms. Lange because the public
hearing was put off until second reading and they were not on notice that that hearing was
ultimately scheduled on October 13, 1998. Clearly, their presentation could have an effect on the
City Commission in the same manner that it convinced the Planning Advisory Board — to reject
the ordinance.
Given the above course of proceedings, the ordinance should be repealed. The ordinance
could then be proposed again with proper study, notice and public hearing. The basic legal
issues which will be pursued on this matter as it presently stands are: (1) non-compliance with
legal notice requirements; (2) violation of procedural due process; (3) conflict with the City's
comprehensive plan; (4) unlawful expansion of a non -conforming use; (5) unlawful spot
BAKER & M9KENZIE
Mayor Joe Carollo and

Page 3
commercial zoning; (6) unlawful destruction of transitional institutional zoning and use to
protect adjoining residential uses on three sides of the Playhouse site; (7) unreasonable
introduction of excess commercial traffic and usage of a protected historic highway and
residential areas; and (8) failure to follow the City's own Planning Advisory Board which
unanimously voted against the ordinance.
The challenged ordinance represents the first step in an overall plan to commercialize the
Playhouse site for private profit at the expense of its public use and of the surrounding residential
areas. Approximately 200 neighboring residents have petitioned against this plan of
commercialization (See attached Exhibit G). The ordinance also represents a direct conflict with
the comprehensive plan's designation of the site for governmental, health, recreational, cultural,
religious and educational activities and converts the Playhouse site into a private parking lot for
commercial enterprises outside the G/I district. Such a commercialization of the G/I district
should not be permitted (See attached Exhibit H). Furthermore, this privatization of public land
is contrary to sound and established public policy as is shown by the memoranda from the
Department of Natural Resources on this project (See attached Exhibit 1). Finally, the increased
traffic impacts from commercializing the Playhouse site fronting on the historic Main Highway
would only worsen the existing non -conforming parking situation at the Playhouse site where
only 175 parking spaces are now available to serve the existing Playhouse parking demand of
300 to 360 spaces (See attached Exhibit J). Absolutely no study of the impact of the ordinance
was ever presented to show how traffic, parking, noise and other problems could be resolved.
In summary, Ordinance 11715 was unlawfully enacted and inadequately studied. It
should be repealed forthwith.
Respectfully submitted,
Anthony J. O' onnell, Jr.

We the undersigned residents of Coconut Grove, oppose the construction of the

parking structure is amply demonstrated by the fact that the existing parking lot is
rarely full. The Offstreet Parking Department correctly recognizes this, and has
declined to start construction. The correct site for such a structure is on the other
side of the village, where the businesses which could benefit from increased
parking availability are located. To compel the construction of a commercial
establishment in what is predominantly a residential community will needlessly
increase noise and other pollution, decrease homeowners' property values, and
further deteriorate the quality of life once enjoyed by Coconut Grove residents
and taxpayers.

We the undersigned residents of Coconut Grove, oppose the construction of the
proposed parking and entertainment complex. That we do not need a four -level
parking structure is amply demonstrated by the fact that the existing parking lot is
rarey `u;i. The Offstreet Parking Department correctly recognizes this, and has
declined to start construction. The correct site for such a structure is on the other
side of the village, where the businesses which could benefit from increased
parking availability are located. To compel the construction of a commercial
establishment in what is predominantly a residential community will needlessly
increase noise and other pollution, decrease homeowners' property values, and
further deteriorate the quality of life once enjoyed by Coconut Grove residents
and taxpayers.

FROM: Ted Forsgran, Chief
Bureau of State Land.�,re&,&..t
SUBJECT: Private Investors Sublease on Coconut Grove Theatre
Property
?.ftow
The Department of State's proposal to sublease a ;art o: t`:s
Coconut Grove property to private investors for a :cmbina-__, cn
parking, office and retail -shop facility raises some sar_cus
policy concerns which should be torougnly described and
discussed.
.000""�
Other than the parking, which is an obvious acceptable use,
the proposed use as a commercial office and ratai:-shop
facility bears no resemblance to the azthor:ties and raspcns:-
bilities of the Department of State. The only relationship
to the functions of the Department of State :s that all of
the revenues derived from this commercial use === ;= tc the
Players State Theatre.
Many other state agencies, such as the Department of Corrections
and Agriculture, have lands under lease from the Trustees,
separate trust funds, and a need for additional revenues. Can
they also sublease 'under- utilized' lands to private investors
for the sole purpose of generating revenues for their agency?
The basic policy question is:
Should the Board of Trustees allow state
ageaeioa to go into the law devet .
business with }swats investors on leasebold
lands ter the primary purpose of generating
additional revenues for their agency?
If the answer is yes, then approval would be an aparopriate
rec�tion for the proposal. if the answer is no, then
denial would be the proper recommendation.

SUBJECT: Private Investors Sublease on Coconut Grove
Theatre Property
I received your mamorandua of May 10, whereby you stated your position
on the matter of the Coconut Grove Theatre property.
Ted, I agree with your evaluation of the thing, but you must remember
that the Legislature made certain provisions for the Coconut Grove
Theatre which we at the department have to abide by since it is their
intent that the land be used for the purposes of the Grove.
I consider this to be a basic departure from our policy and do not
want this to be considered general policy.
I appreciate you writing me a memorandum about this.

Task 3 - Comparative Analysis of Parking Supply and Demand - Preliminary Report
Dear Mr. O'Donnell:
As requested, I am performing a comparative analysis of the parking supply and demand in the
vicinity of the proposed project for following scenarios:
a. The existing development
b. The proposed development
Although I have not completed my investigations, I believe that my work has progressed
sufficiently to offer the following as a preliminary report on my findings.
EXISTING PARJUNG
With the notable exception of the City of Mianri Parking Lot #6, located adjacent to the Coconut
Grove Playhouse. e?dsting parking in the vicinity of the project can characterized as consisting of
on -street metered parking spaces with few off-street parking spaces. This type of parking is
consistent with the scale of the existing development in the area.
EXISTING DEVELOPMENT
For the moat part, the existing devdopmeu in the area coasts of UWA scale MUNI ent mainmant
and eating eatahii nan. The A*W moat prommeot eaiatieg de arerr< is thre area is the
Coconut Clrow lbyhonae. The P4yho= coataWa a mds stage with seating for apprmdmatdy
1,100 persona pin the Encore Room which seats appro1dmatPly 100 persons. Parking for the
Playhouse is provided in City of Miami Lot #6 which contains approximately 175 parking spaces.

PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT
Based upon the project proposal submitted by Playhouse Associates, L.C., the proposed
development consists of 12 to 24 .Apartment Units, a 125 Room Hotel, 40.000 gross square foot
(GSF) of Retail space and a parking garage accommodating up to 500 cars
PARKING DEMAND RATES
Peak period parking demand factors were obtained from the Urban Land Institute (ULI)
publication Shared Parking. These rates are presented in Table 1

EXISTING PARKING DEMAND
Based upon the existing combined 1,200 seats in the Playhouse and the parking demand factors
presented in Table 1, existing Playhouse parking demand is estimated to be 300 parking spaces on
Weekdays and 360 parking spaces on Saturday.

The estimated gross parking demand for the proposed development is presented in Table 2.

Using a "shared parking" approach; applying ULI published accumulation rates, but making no
other adjustments, indicates that on weekdays the proposed development would have a net
parking demand of approximately 268 parking spaces. On Saturdays, the net parking demand
would be approximately 247 parking spaces.
ANALYSIS
Currently there are approximately 175 off-street parking spaces available to serve the theater
operation. Applying the concept of shared parking to the project, if all 500 parking spaces were
constructed, the proposed development would have approximately 232 parking spaces available
for the theater on weekdays and 253 parking spaces available on Saturdays. This represents a
potential net increase of 57 parking spaces for the theater on weekdays and 78 parldng spaces on
Saturdays.
However, if one discounts the concept of shared parking in the can of this project, the proposed
development merely replaces the existing 175 parking spaces in City of Miami Lot #6 and adds
parking to satisfy its own gross parking demands
PRELVAINARY CONCLUSIONS
The proposed project will provide sufficient parking to meet its own demands and may potentially
result in a net increase of 57 to 78 available parking spaces to serve other development in the
area.
When the Playhouse is is operation, this potential increase could 1: P R- Pleybouse parking.

Nami Lot f6 are avabble to visitors to the am The proposed pr�oect cold add an additimel
57 to 78 pariring spaces to the potential parking inventory for these visitors.
Regardless of the net impact on parking supply, construction of the proposed project would result
in a dramatic departure from the existing pattern of parking in the area. While existing parking is
basically spread throughout through the area with the only significant concentration of 175 spaces
on the site, the proposed project would almost triple the number of parking spaces on the site and
focus parking and its associate traffic impacts Main f-[ighwav and the Williams avenue Alley
I hope that this letter adequately addresses your request if you have any questions please do not
hesitate to contact me.
