ANALYSIS
SUBSTANTIAL MODIFICATION OF A PREVIOUSLY APPROVED
MAJOR USE SPECIAL PERMIT
for
Miami Ballpark
located at approximately
1501 NW 3rd Street
FILE ID: 09-00141mm
The proposed substantial modifications to the "Marlins Ballpark" development
approved under MUSP Resolution R-09-199, will be comprised of:
1) Reducing the Accessory Retail Space from approximately 61,678 square feet to
53,629 square feet.
2) To provide 5,735 off-street parking spaces (4,831 in structured parking and 904
parking spaces on surface lots as interim parking), instead of 5,809 off-street
parking spaces approved by MUSP Resolution R-09-199.
3) To allow an increase in height of the parking garage structure on Track "A" from
47 feet 0 inches approved by MUSP Resolution R-09-199 to 63 feet 1 inch, and
on Track "D" from 54 feet 0 inches to 73 feet 1 0 inches.
4) Pursuant to a LEED Silver Certification, to allow a sixty percent (60%) roof
structures coverage where a maximum of twenty percent (20%) is allowed. The
roof structures on all four (4) garages consist of photovoltaic array systems that
will generate from 1.3 to 1.6 megawatts of power for the adjacent Marlin Stadium
project.
5) To allow a City of Miami communication antenna tower 30 to 45 feet high top
mounted on the roof of one of the garage buildings, subject to the requirements
and limitations of Section 949.
6) To allow other possible uses for the liners such as educational or residential.
Any of these options would require the flexibility to modify the floor plans and
exterior elevations as required by such functions.
Pursuant to Zoning Ordinance 11000, as amended, the Zoning Ordinance of the
City of Miami, Florida, the subject proposal for the Miami Ballpark project, to be located
at approximately 1501 NW 3rd Street has been reviewed to allow an application for
Substantial Modifications to a previously approved Major Use Special Permit approved
under Resolution No. R-09-199, subject to all applicable criteria as per zoning
regulations 11000;
Note: All previous approvals in the MUSP resolution R-09-199 remain in full force
and effect.

In determining the appropriateness of the proposed project, the Planning
Department has referred this project to involved instances of the City of Miami
including the Planning Internal Design Review Committee for additional input and
recommendations; the following findings have been made:
• It is found that pursuant to the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan Map, the
existing Future Land Use category for the property is "Major Institutional - Public
Facilities - Transportation and Utilities".
• It is found that the proposed project is not located along a Primary Pedestrian
Pathway.
• It is found that the proposed project is not located within an Archeological
Conservation area.
• It is found that the complex is proposed in a site with a 45.11± acres of gross lot
area, and 32.12± acres of net lot area.
• It is found that this substantial modification to a previously approved Major Use
Special Permit proposes an educational use as an alternative option to the approved
residential use for liners.
• It is found that the proposed educational use is in compliance with the current zoning
designation, the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan Map, and the Future
Land Use Map.
• It is found that the Miami Economic Associates, Inc., the firm who conducted the
"Affordable Housing Analysis" for the Miami Ballpark Major Use Special Permit,
issued on December 6, 2009 a letter for this substantial amendment stating that "the
placement of a charter school on the site of the Miami Ballpark Project would
increase the demand for very low income in 2 units while the demand for low income
and moderate income units in 3 units each. Substantial surpluses in available supply
in each income category will still exist even after these increases in demand are
taken into discount".
• It is found that the proposed possible and permitted uses for the liners options will
have the flexibility to modify the floor plans and exterior elevations as required by
such functions, and for submitting to Planning Department and the Office of Zoning
for review and approval.
• It is found that the proposed development project will benefit the area by creating a
Major Sport Facility with additional commercial and residential/educational
opportunities in the Little Havana NET District, generally bounded by NW 7th Street
to the north; NW 3rd Street to the South; NW 17th Avenue to the West; and NW 14th
Avenue to the East.
• It is found that the project is not requesting any bonuses and it is proposing a
combined floor area of 45.11± gross acre site for a total FAR of 1,092,907 sq. ft.,
which is below the 3,379,465 sq. ft. allowed for a FAR of 1.72 of the GLA.
09-00141 mu
Page 2 of 7
• It is found that the accessory Retail Space for the project is decreasing from
approximately 61,678 square feet to 53,629 square feet.
• It is found that the height of the parking garage structure on Track "A" increases
from 47 feet 0 inches to 63 feet 1 inch, and on Track "D" increases from 54 feet 0
inches to 73 feet 10 inches.
• It is found that this substantial modification to a previously approved Major Use
Special Permit proposes a City of Miami communication antenna tower 30 to 45 feet
high top mounted on the roof of one of the garage buildings, to be designed in
compliance with the requirements and limitations of Section 949.
• It is found that the changes in the height of the parking garages do not affect the
approved maximum height of the proposed complex, approximately 269 feet 0
inches A.G.L. at top of the retractable roof.
• It is found that the number of parking spaces decreases from 5,809 off-street
parking spaces approved on the MUSP to 5,735 off-street parking spaces (4,831 in
structured parking and 904 parking spaces on surface lots as interim parking). The
number of parking spaces provided in this substantial modification is above the
5,024 parking spaces required for the project with the residential option as well as
the 5,011 parking spaces required for the project with the educational option for the
liners.
• It is found that this substantial modification to a previously approved Major Use
Special Permit proposes to increase the roof coverage to a maximum of 60% of the
overall roof surface area to place the photovoltaic array system, which is a required
element to attain the LEED Silver certification.
It is found that this substantial modification to a previously approved Major Use
Special Permit proposes an approved thematic treatment to enclose and conceal
lighting, pipes and mechanical equipment of the structured garages. Changes to this
proposal shall be reviewed and approved by Planning Department.
It is found that the firm who conducted the "Economic Study" for the Miami Ballpark
Major Use Special Permit, issued on December 7, 2009 a letter for this substantial
amendment stating that "Slight changes to the original engineering and architectural
plans of the Parking Garages for the new Marlins Stadium that were studied for the
2008 economic impact study by The Washington Economic Group, Inc., will not
result in significant changes to the impact findings presented in the 2008 Study.
However, if the 96 proposed housing units are replaced with a magnet high school,
WEG will need to update the original economic impacts to reflects the new and
changed construction elements and would therefore, at that time, amend the original
economic impacts of the new Marlins Stadium parking facility".
• It is found that on November 19, 2009 the City of Miami Transportation
Administration Division issued a "Marlins Ball Park MUSP Substantial Modification
Traffic Sufficiency" stating that "The Substantial Modification to the Marlins Ball Park
Major Use Special Permit (MUSP) does not require a new traffic impact study since
09-00141 mu
Page 3 of 7
the modifications do not impact the original traffic analysis. The conditions of the
original traffic sufficiency letter, dated February 5, 2009, still apply".
It is found that on February 5, 2009, the City's Traffic Consultant, URS Corp.,
provided a review (R # 003) of the Traffic Impact Analysis submitted by the applicant
and has found the traffic analysis sufficient with the following commitments by the
applicant: 1) Provide a stand-alone document to address Pedestrian and Bicycle
Routes for Ballpark Events, identifying safe and convenient pedestrian and bicycle
connections leading to and from the Ballpark, connecting off-site parking, existing or
programmed greenways, transit corridors and transit stations. The Applicant shall
continue to coordinate with Miami -Dade County Public Works and the City of Miami
in the development and review of this stand-alone document; 2) Work with Miami -
Dade Transit, Miami -Dade- County, Tri -Rail and the City of Miami to assure
convenient transit services in the vicinity of the site, to extend transit service hours
and to provide special transit services to accommodate post game passengers on
game days; 3) Work with Miami -Dade Transit, Miami -Dade County and the City of
Miami to determine the best location for transit connections serving the Ballpark; and
4) Coordinate with the City of Miami and Miami -Dade County in the preparation of a
Network Simulation Analysis that will demonstrate the interactive operational effects
of pre -game and post -game traffic to and from the Ballpark. Special attention will be
given to vehicle queuing at critical intersections and traffic operations into and out of
the Ballpark facilities
It is found that the proposed Miami Ballpark stadium project, as part of the complex,
was reviewed by the Internal Design Review Committee of the Planning Department
on January 6, 2009, and the following revised pertinent comments were made:
Urban Design: 1) Develop the approaches to the stadium along NW 15th Avenue.
Paving materials and sidewalk treatments should be consistent with the rest of the
proposal, 2) Provide dimensions for all walkways, curb cuts, drive aisles, and cross
sections illustrating the sidewalk width and arrangement„ 3) Incorporate enhanced
crosswalks and other treatments to provide safety for pedestrians and define major
pedestrian crossings, 4) The pedestrian sidewalk is encouraged to remain at a
consistent height throughout the site. This is especially important across the
entrance and exit driveways to the garages where there will be heavy pedestrian
traffic. All vehicles shall rise to the sidewalk level with ramping beginning at the outer
edge of the curb, with the ramp slope being the maximum allowed by Public Works,
5) Include the use of a stabilized base structure for the surface parking lots in order to
maintain these areas as greenspace, when not in use, 6) Provide on street parking
along NW 3rd Street as a benefit to residents and to provide additional parking for
the stadium during game times. Architecture: 7) Provide updated floor plan
drawings to illustrate the five bay segments and window openings as proposed on
the elevations and renderings, 8) If the proposed art display screens in multiple
colors as illustrated are not to be placed on the building, this fagade shall be treated
identically to the others, including the textured panel insets. Additionally, verify with
the Zoning Department the applicability for the proposed advertisements screens. In
addition, any advertisement shall be subject to review by the Planning Department,
9) Provide material samples or precedent photographs of the screening material
proposed along the ground floor of the garage facing the stadium and residential
neighborhood. The Planning Department generally discourages the use of metal
grillwork, unless exceptional in nature. It is necessary, especially at the ground floor,
09-00141 mu
Page 4 of 7
to screen views of cars, lights and mechanical equipment. Provide options for other
architectural treatments or landscaping, 10) Develop ways to obscure views of cars,
lighting, and mechanical systems within the garage. Orient lighting and other necessary
systems in a way that is not easily seen from the street or neighboring properties,
11) Design the lighting system for the rooftop parking level in a way to minimize
glare and spillover to neighboring residential properties. Indicate how this will be
accomplished, Landscape: 12) Paving pattern design and materials shall be
consistent between the garages and stadium, as illustrated in the December 8, 2008
Miami Ballpark Conceptual Landscape Plan. Incorporate additional treatments to the
roadways, if possible, that would continue the pattern across vehicular areas,
13) Specify the species and proposed locations of all trees and palms shown on the
landscape plan, 14) Continue to develop the interim greenspace, along NW 3rd
Street, into usable linear park. Additional landscaping is suggested. Please provide
updated landscape information, and 15) The conditions above are referred
exclusively to Substantial Modification to the previously approved Major Use Special
Permit for the Miami Ballpark project in the parking garages, in consequence, all
conditions imposed to the previously approved Major Use Special Permit different to
this Development Order are valid and in full force.

COMMENTS:
The following comments represent the unified vision of the Pre -Application Design Review Committee, which
consists of staff members in the Urban Design and Land Development Divisions. The City of Miami strives to
achieve diverse, sustainable, pedestrian -friendly neighborhoods, promote transit connections, and provide safe
and comfortable buildings, streets, and parks that contribute to a prosperous city for all residents to enjoy.
Urban Design
• Continue to develop the approaches to the stadium along NW 15d' Avenue. Paving materials and
sidewalk treatments should be consistent with the rest of the proposal.
• Please provide dimensions for all walkways, curb cuts, and drive aisles. Cross sections illustrating the
sidewalk width and arrangement are preferred.
• Incorporate enhanced crosswalks and other treatments to provide safety for pedestrians and define
major pedestrian crossings. Special consideration should be given to connections from major
thoroughfares, as well as to the stadium from the garages.
• The pedestrian sidewalk is encouraged to remain at a consistent height throughout the site. This is
especially important across the entrance and exit driveways to the garages where there will be heavy
pedestrian traffic. All vehicles shall rise to the sidewalk level with ramping beginning at the outer edge
of the curb, with the ramp slope being the maximum allowed by Public Works.
• Consider the use of a stabilized base structure (such as Grass Pave2, shown below) for the surface
parking lots in order to maintain these areas as greenspace, when not in use.
• Consider providing on street parking along NW 3,d Street as a benefit to residents and to provide
additional parking for the stadium during game times.
Architecture
• The committee thinks the proposed elevations and perspectives provide an appropriate solution for
the parking garage. Please update the floor plan drawings to illustrate the five bay segments and
window openings. The committee feels the recessed panels between these segments are necessary to
break up the large massing of the garage.
• The committee agrees with the proposed art display screens in multiple colors as illustrated. If the
screens are not to be placed on the building, this facade shall be treated identically to the others,
including the textured panel insets. Additionally, verify with the Zoning Department the applicability
of providing advertisements on these screens. Any proposed advertisement shall be reviewed by the
Planning Department.
• Please provide material samples or precedent photographs of the screening material proposed along
the ground floor of the garage facing the stadium and residential neighborhood. The committee
generally discourages the use of metal grillwork, unless exceptional in nature. It is necessary, especially
at the ground floor, to screen views of cars, lights and mechanical equipment. Consider other
architectural treatments or landscaping.
• Continue to develop ways to obscure views of cars, lighting, and mechanical systems within the
garage. Orient lighting and other necessary systems in a way that is not easily seen from the street or
neighboring properties.
• It is essential that the lighting system for the rooftop parking level is designed in a way to minimize
glare and spillover to neighboring residential properties. Indicate how this will be accomplished.
It is our intention with these comments to aid in expediting Special Permit applications with your
voluntary efforts in making the necessary changes; thereby, avoiding any preventable delays
particularly prior to a project's submission to the Large Scale Development Committee or the
Urban Development Review Board.

• Specify the species and proposed locations of all trees and palms shown on the landscape plan.
• Continue to develop the interim greenspace, along NW 3,d Street, into usable linear park. Additional
landscaping is suggested. Please provide updated landscape information.

Subject: Marlins Ball Park MUSP Substantial Modification Traffic Sufficiency
Attachments: Sufficiency Letter Attach ment. pdf
For the file, I find that the Substantial Modification to the Marlins Ball Park Major Use
Special Permit (MUSP), does not require a new traffic impact study since the modifications do
not impact the original traffic analysis. The conditions of the original traffic sufficiency

Sufircle.ncy Letter
Dear Ms. Medina:
Subsequent to our January 7, 2009 review comments for the subject project, we have received a response letter and
revisions to the report from Cathy Sweefappie & Associates (CS&A) dated February 5, 2008. A copy of CS&A's
response letter is attached herewith.
At this time, we conclude that the traffic impact report meets the traffic requirements and the study is found to be
sufficient with following commitments by the applicant subsequent to and as a condition of the MUSP approval:
1, Provide a stand-alone document to address Pedestrian and Bicycle Routes for Ballpark Events, identifying safe and
convenient pedestrian and bicycle connections leading to and from the Ballpark, connecting off-site parking, existing
0 or programmed greenways, transit corridors and transit stations, The Applicant shall continue to coordinate with
Miami -Dade County Public Works and the City of Miami in the development and review of this stand-alone document. _ .__ __ ._ __•
— - - – 2. Work with Miami -Dade Transit, Miami -Dade County, Tri -Rail and the City of Miami to assure convenient transit
services in the vicinity of the site, to extend transit service hours and to provide special transit services to
accommodate postgame passengers on game days,
3. Work with Miami -Dade Transit, Miami -Dade County and the City of Miami to determine the best location for transit
connections serving the Ballpark.
4, Coordinate with the City of Miami and Miami -Dade County in the preparation of a Network Simulation Analysis that
will demonstrate the interactive operational effects of pre -game and post -game traffic to and from the Ballpark,
Special attention will be given to vehicle queuing at critical intersections and traffic operations into and out of the
Ballpark parking facilities,
Further, the applicant should coordinate with Miami -Dade County Traffic Signals Division to secure approval of the
proposed traffic signals.
Should you have any questions, please call Ms, Geysa Sosa or me at 954.739,1 881.

Dear Mr. Fenton,
Slight changes to the original engineering and architectural plans of the Parking Garages for the new Marlins
Stadium that were studied for the 2008 economic impact study by The Washington Economics Group, will
not result in significant changes to the impact findings presented in the 2008 Study. However, if the
96 proposed housing units are replaced with a magnet high school, WEG will need to update the original
economic impacts to reflect the new and changed construction elements and would therefore, at that time,
amend the original economic impacts of the new Marlins Stadium parking facility.
Best Regards,

Miami, Florida
Dear Mr. Fenton:
This letter supplements the affordable housing analysis that Miami Economic
Associates, Inc. (MEAL) provided to Mr. Claude Delorme at Florida Marlins, LP on
January 15, 2009 for inclusion in the MaJor Use Special Permit (MUSP) application for
the Miami Ballpark Project. In that. analysis, we concluded that the demand generated by
the Miami Ballpark, project for residential units affordable to very low, low and moderate
income households could be accommodated by the available supply within a housing
supply area defined by a 20 -minute commute time from the stadium. We now
understand that the footprint and heights of the proposed parking garages that will serve
the ballpark, referred to as Phases 2 and 3 in the original MUSP application, are
expected to change from what was presented in the original WSP application and that
the area that was previously shown to house 96 "liner" residential units is now being
programmed with either the same 96 units or, in the alternative, a charter high school
with approximately 800 students at full capacity and approximately 50 employees. The
retail area will be slightly (7,000± sf) smaller in this revised plan. The purpose of this
letter is to report that the additional demand for affordable housing the will result from the
possible placement of a charter school on-site can also be accommodated by the
available supply of units identified in the letter report addressed to Mr. Delorme that was
referred to above.
The paragraphs that follow summarize the analysis presented in the letter MEN
addressed to Mr. Delorme on January 15, 2009:
0 Very Low Income Households
Very Low income households are defined as households earning less than 50
percent of the Area Median Income currently $49,200 --- or up :to $24,600. An
estimated total of 38 workers employed at the Marlins" proposed ballpark will require
housing -affordable to such households. Our analysis identified that there would

potentially be 91 units available to such households within the area defined by a 20 -
minute commute from the proposed ballpark, resulting in a surplus of 53 units,
0 Low Income Households
Low income households are defined as households earning between 50 and 80
percent of the Area .Median Income, or between $24,601 and $39,360. An estimated
total of 45 workers employed at the Marlins' proposed ballpark will require housing
affordable to such households. Our analysis identified there would potentially be 121
units available. to such, households within the area defined by a 20 -minute commute
from the proposed ballpark, resulting in a surplus 76 units,
Moderate Income Households
Moderate income households are defined as households earning between 80 and
120 percent of the Area Median Income, or between $39,361 and $59,040. An
estimated total of 53 workers employed at the Marlins' proposed ballpark will require
housing affordable to such households. Our analysis identified there would
potentially be 418 units available to such households )Within the area defined by a 20 -
minute commute from the proposed ballpark,. resulting in a surplus 365 units.
As shown on the table on the page immediately following, the placement of a charter
school on the site of the Miami Ballpark Project would increase the demand for very low
income units by 2 units while the demand for low.income and moderate income units 3
units each. Substantial surpluses in available supply in each income category will still
exist even after these increases in demand are taken into account.
