RE: Determination Number NIIA-OPT+` DN -10-05-340 Airspace and Land Use Analysis
for the Large Scale Development Submission for the Village Apartments project
located at 890 NW 69 Street, Miami, FL
Folio No,: 01-31.14-010-0010 and 01-311.4-010-0020
Dear Mr, Laveinia:
The Miami -Dade Aviation Department (MDAD) is in receipt of your Large Scale Development
submission for an airspace/land-use zoning analysis and determination letter for the above
referenced project.
Airspace Review:
Our review finds that the assumed maximum height of 140'-6" AMSL (Above Mean Sea Level)
for the proposed structure at this location conforms to the Miami International Airport (Wilcox
Field) Zoning Ordinance, approved by the Miami -Dade County, Commission on July 2007 and
to the Opa-locka Executive Airport Zoning Ordinance.
Please note that the airspace review process is governed by two different regulations: the
Miami -Dade County Height Zoning Ordinances and the Code of Federal Regulation, Title 14
Part 77. The Miami -Dade County Aviation Department or the applicable municipal building
official determines whether the County's height limitations are met, the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) has its own airspace evaluation requirements, and issues airspace
determinations for structures and cranes, and determines whether FAA, marking and height
requirements are met based on the particular facts then presented before them.
It is not necessary to file with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for the structure height
as stated above. However, any construction cranes for this project meeting or exceeding 200 ft
AMSL (Above Mean Sea Level) must be filed by the construction contractor using form 7460-1
`Notice of Proposed Construction Alteration for Determination of Known Hazards'.

The form is available through this office or through the FAA website: https://ocaaa.faa.gov. The
contractor may "e -file" online at the same website. Alternatively, the form can be mailed to:
Federal Aviation Administration, Air Traffic Airspace Branch - ASW -520, 2601 Meacham Blvd,
Ft. Worth, TX 76137-0520.
Furthermore, please note that upon completion of this project, no Certificate of Use and
Certificate of Occupancy shall be issued by a municipality or Miami -Dade County until approval
is obtained by this office certifying that the structure was built no higher that the height approved
by this letter. The approval shall be issued by this office after submittal by applicant of the
required information as outlined in the Miami International Airport (Wilcox Field) Zoning
Ordinance, Section 33-349 Airspace Approvals, Paragraph A, Subsection 2.
This height determination is an estimate issued on a preliminary or advisory basis and is based,
in part, on the description provided to us by you, which includes specific structure location and
heights. Any changes in the building location, layout, or height will void this determination.
Any future construction or alteration, including an increase in heights requires separate notice to
the FAA and MDAD.
Land Use Review:
Based on the available information, MDAD has determined that the referenced property is clear
of any land use restrictive zones as defined in the Code of Miami -Dade County, Article XXXVH
Miami International Airport (Wilcox Field) Zoning, Section 33-336 and the Code of Miami -
Dade County, Opa-loclm Executive Airport Zoning Ordinance.
Should you have any questions in obtaining and/or filling out FAA form 7460-1 or if I can be of
any further assistance, please feel free to contact me at 305-876-8080.
