ENCLOSURES:
(2)
This will confirm receipt by this office on March 16, 1984
of a copy of Clark Merrill's attached May 15, 1984 memoranda
to you with respect to the above items.
By adopting Items #24 and ff25 (Park and Recreation Bond
Ordinances) on second reading on May 24, 1984, and by
adopting the "Housing and Redevelopment" Bond Ordinances
(Items #22 and #23) on first reading also on May 24th, the
City Commission apparently intends to conduct the scheduled
public hearings for the purpose of receiving public input on
proposed expenditures for both of these bond issues as
authorized by the bond ordinances. Accordingly, we have
informed the City Clerk's Office that there is no legal
objection to the continuing publication of the notice of
public hearings (for public input) on the scheduled dates of
June 14, June 28 and July 12, 1984.
The Clerk is being advised by a copy hereof that there should
be no further advertisement of an original proposed ordinance
to authorize issuance of $20,000,000 for the SE Overtown/Park
West Community Redevelopment Area. This ordinance had been
adopted on first reading on March 29, 1984. As a matter of �,OW
law, this earlier action by the City Commission , may not e
considered as having been abandoned by virtue of its decision
to adopt a proposed ordinance on first readinq on Hay 24
authorizing the issuance of $30,000,000 for housing and
redevelopment. Provided that the item be published by June
4, as a second readinq ordinance, the second reading can take
place as early as June 14, 1984 ($30,000,000 Housing and
Redevelopment Bond.). You may want to check with the Clerk's
Office on this point, since Ive understand that the policy of
the Clerk is to publish all deferred nonplanninq and zoning
City Commission items for the next scheduled nonplanning and
zoning meetinq (first meeting of the month).

• Eli-minate safety hazards:
• Initiate environmental protection in
parks with significant shoreline
de=ericration.
• Be=utifv the narks through the planting
of additional trees.
• Discussion:
.• An analysis outlined in the City's recently completed
.Ccnnrehensive Park and Recreation Master Plan shows
• that Miami is fortunate to have substantial park
land assets which -are generally scattered through-
out the City. The element which limits the effec-
tive usage of these lard assets is the lack of
usable recreational facilities. Many of the iacil-
it_es are old and include items suchasballfield
lighting systems that do not work, old recreational
buildings which are in poor condition, and broken
and missing playground equipment, etc. Additionally,
mere basketball courts, ballfields, playgrounds and
other active recreational facilities reed to be
added to the.existing system to acconmodate the
greatly increased population demands on the City
parks. The ten million dollars funded in this
section of the Bond Program would significantly
enhance the usable recreational facilities avail-
able in the major City parks.

e Discussicn:
December 22, 1983
e Presently, the City has nine _swim_„cina _nools plus the
Jose Marti cool which is under construction. of the
nine pools, Williams pool ij the only one which is
less than ten years old. The remaining eight pools
were built between 1.951-1954, and consequently are
in bad condition.
e Most o1 these cools have deteriorated mechanical
systems and need new pipes, filters and electrical -
fixtures. Many of the iaools have structural vrcblems
and also have old restroo*,, and shower facilities
which are substandard. In order to alleviate these
conditions and equally important, to expand swimming_
as a recreational program, the folloving program is
proposed:
e Three new competitive size 50 meter pools would be
built at: Hadlev, Mornina_side and Grapeland Parks.
These pools would be the core or magnet pools which
would service the swim.-mers and teams from the smaller
neighborhood pools. Additionally, one of the 50-mat-er
pcois would be specifically designed to meet oly:-pic
cc-netitive standards so that Local, National and
International swimming events could be hosted by the
City of Miami.
s Four smaller 25-meter wools would be built to replace
existing pools in the following Darks: Range (for-nerly
Edison), Shenandoah, Virrick and West End. The existing
pools at Curtis, Gibson and Williams would be renovated
and brought up to standard. The following is a summary

• III - A, B & C - Regional Park Improvements
• Cost: $15,000,000
December 22, 1983
• This funding would provide for major improve-
ments to the Bayfront Park System, the develop-
ment of Virginia Key into a major water front
park, and the acquisition and development of
the Nava]. Reserve Training Center property,
located in Coconut Grove, into a Recreation _
and Arts Center.
• A - Bayfront Park: $5,000,000
• Goals and Objectives:
s Continue the redevelopment of the downtown
Bayfront System.
• Coordinate the redevelopment with Bayside and
other major projects which will significantly
enhance the increased usage of the Bayfront
Park System.
• Discussion:
• Presently, Miami is in the process of redevelop-
ing Bayfront Park. Major elements of this
redevelopment include the $6,000,000 baywalk
and seawall project funded by the Corps of
Engineers, the Mildred and Claude Pepper
Fountain which will be the terminus of the
main Flagler Street axis, and the Bayside
project which will revitalize the use of
Miami's Bayfront. The cumulative results of
these projects will be a people oriented active
park which will share many of the same charac-
teristics with Baltimore's Harbor Place and
Boston's Quincy Market. In addition to serving
as the center piece and symbol of Miami, the
park's successful completion will also generate
significant economic development through the
creation of new jobs and expanded employment
opportunities due to the increased spending
of residents, office workers and tourists in
Bayside and the adjacent Central City.
• The total cost of the Bayfront Park portion
of this project is approximately 520,000,000
not including the already funded 16,000,000
Corps of Engineers baywalt:. 'Thy r5,000,000
funded in the Bond Pronra.m will enable the
City to complete mucl7 of the cark i i::'rastruc-
ture and cren saace areas adjacent to the
bavwalk. The Bond funds can also b` us.ed as
the City match when applying For coy:ernmental

• B - Virginia Key Park: $5,000,000
• Goals and Objectives:
• Establish Virginia Key as a major natural
resource -based park.
• Establish the City of Miami's only beach
A
acility.
o Create a revenue producing campground as a _
destination point for tourists visiting Miami.
• Protect and enhance the environment of
Biscayne Bay.
• Discussion:
• Virginia Key is one of the last remaining large
open spaces on Biscayne Bay. The City of Miami
owns approximately 650 acres on Virginia Key of
which approximately 500 acres are suitable for
a regional park. The development of this park
would provide Miami with its only beach facility
as well as making available expansive picnic and
festival grounds, camping areas and nature trails.
The recently completed master plan for Virginia
Key has a preliminary cost estimate of approxi-
mately $10,000,000. The $5,000,000 provided in
the Bond Program would allow for the development
of the beach area and supporting facilities.
Because of the availability of numerous grant
programs to develop natural areas such as
Virginia Key, a significant portion of the Bond
monies would be utilized as the City's match in
applying for these funds.
• C - Coconut Grove Recreation and Arts Center: $5,000,000
Goals and Objectives:
• Acquire the Naval Reserve Traininq Center property
and develop a major Recreation and arts Center.
• Expand cultural and artistic opportunities for
Miami's residents and tourists.
• Preserve and reinforce the Coconut Grove art
tradition,
• Add the last available large open space tract
of land in the Bayshore Drive corridor to the
public park system.

e Add needed classroom meeting spaces and indoor
recreation areas to accommodate Miami's expanded
e Discussion:
e The Naval Reserve Training Center, located in
Coconut Grove between Tigertail and Bayshore
Drive, has approximately three (3) acres which
would become available to the City of Miami for
acquisition when the Training Center relocates
to new facilities. This land is adjacent to
other publicly owned lands and, most importantly,
is the last available large tract of land remaining
in the Bayshore Drive corridor. The acquisition
of the Training Center site would enable the City
to develop a major.Recreation and Arts Center.
This Recreation and Arts Center would provide
greatly expanded cultural facilities for Miami's
residents and visitors. In addition to preserving
the last remaining Bayshore Drive open space, the
acquisition and development of this site would also
preserve and reinforce the artistic traditions which
have historically been a unique feature of Coconut
Grove.
