Pursuant to F.S. 380.06(22) (2002), the Project specifies the total amount of development planned for each I4use category, but provides flexibility for such development to be located anywhere within the Project Area, su ject to local land development regulations. The Project Area includes all property within the boundaries of the 4 ntown Development Authority, with the exception of that area between NE/NW 5th Street and 1-395 known as rrk West", as more particularly described in Exhibit "B". The Project Area contains a total of approximately 927.20 acres of land, including approximately 78 acres currently zoned and developed as City parks. • • LEGAL DESCRIPTION OF SUBJECT PROPERTY: See Exhibit "B". DEFINITIONS: For the purposes of this Development Order, the following terms shall be defined as follows: ADA or Application for Development Approval: The original Application for Notification of Proposed Change by the DDA on February _4, 2004, pursuant to F.S. 380.06 (2002). CADA or Consolidated. Application for Development Approval: The revised ADA prepared --pursuant to paragraph 15 herein. Certificate of Occupancy: A permanent or temporary and/or partial Certificate of Occupancy issued, pursuant to Section 106 of the Florida Building Code, for any "Net New Development" as defined herein. City: The City of Miami, Florida. Council: The South Florida Regional Planning Council. DDA or Downtown Development Authority: The Downtown Development Authority of the City of Miami, Florida. DERM: The Metropolitan Dade County Department of Environmental Resources Management. Development Credits: The individual units of land uses included within Total Allowable Development, as measured by square footage or number of dwelling units, hotel rooms, or seats. FDER: The Florida Department of Environmental Regulation. Major Use Special Permit: A special permit issued by the City Commission pursuant to Ordinance 9500, the Zoning Ordinance of the City of Miami, as amended. Net New Development: Any construction or reconstruction which will result in a net increase, within any "Parcel of Land", of residential dwelling units, hotel rooms, seats in attractions/recreation facilities or gross square footage for office, government office, retail/service, convention, wholesale/industrial or institutional uses. Land uses to be removed by demolition of a building or structure may be credited against the proposed new land uses for purposes of calculating the net increase, if the Planning Director determines that there was a valid Certificate of Occupancy existing on the effective date of this Development Order for the land uses to be demolished. If a change of land use is proposed, the Planning Director may credit the prior land use against the proposed land use based upon equivalent impacts as measured by peak hour vehicle trip generation. Any activity which has on the effective date of this Development Order a valid building permit or any currently effective development order shall not be included as Net New Development. The Planning Director may exclude from Net New Development any small development under 10,000 square feet in floor area, if he finds that such development would have no regional impact as measured by peak hour vehicle trips. 5 • • Parcel of Land: Any quantity of land capable of being described with such definiteness that its location and boundaries may be established, and which is designated by its owner or developer as land to be used or developed as a unit or which has been used or developed as a unit. Proiect: That Project described in the "PROJECT DESCRIPTION" on Page 1 herein. Project Area: The area included within the legal description in Exhibit B. Total Allowable Development: The quantity of Net New Development for which Certificates of Occupancy may be issued under the terms and conditions of this Development Order, together with the applicable Master Development Order, as may be modified pursuant to F. S. 380.06(19) (2002), and which shall be measured by the following land uses: Land Uses Increment II Office (sf) 1,220,000 Government (sf) 0 Retail (sf) 747,774 Hotel (rooms) 1,605 Residential (units) 6,750 Convention 300,000 Industrial (sf) 550,000 Institutional (sf) 350,000 Attractions (seats) 59,000 The City may permit simultaneous increases and decreases in the above described land use categories, without the need of filing for an NOPC (Notice of Proposed Change) provided that the regional impacts of the land uses as changed will not exceed the adverse regional impacts of the land uses in Increment II of the Project as originally approved, as measured by total peak hour vehicle trips. 6 • • • FINDINGS OF FACT: The following findings of fact are hereby confirmed and adopted with respect to the Project: A. The findings and determinations of fact set forth in the recitals of the resolution to this Development Order are hereby confirmed. B. The real property which is the subject of this Development Order is legally described in Exhibit "B". C. The DDA filed the ADA with the City, the Council, and the Florida Department of Community Affairs. D. The CADA has been filed by the DDA pursuant to F.S. 380.06(22) (1987) authorizing a downtown development authority to apply for development approval and receive a development order for any or all of the area within its jurisdiction. Individual developments are not identified or required to be identified in the CADA. E. The purpose of the CADA is to identify and assess probable regional impacts and to obtain approval for Total Allowable Development in accordance with the general guidelines set forth in this Development Order and the CADA. The concept is to recognize the Project Area as a single area of high intensity development and to focus the DRI review process primarily on the impacts that Total Allowable Development within the area will have on land, water, transportation, environmental, community services, energy and other resources and systems of regional significance. The CADA seeks a single DRI review process for overall phased development of the downtown area rather than requiring each individual DRI scale development within the downtown area to file for separate DRI reviews. F. Development within the Project Area is expected to continue to be accomplished over an extended period of time by a variety of developers, which may include the City. These developers may respond to market demand and technologies that can only be estimated in the CADA. The CADA is intended to serve as a flexible guide to planned development of the Project Area rather than a precise blueprint for its development. Therefore, pursuant to F.S. 380.06(21)(b) (2002), the CADA seeks to expand the boundaries of the Project and to redistribute development credits within the Increment II Project Program. Subsequent incremental applications may need to be adjusted to more nearly serve as a living guide recognizing the evolution of market demand and technologies. 7 410 G. The Project Area contains a total of approximately 927.2 acres, including approximately 78 acres presently zoned and developed as City parks. The CADA proposes Net New Development within the Project Area for the land uses, quantities and phases defined herein as Total Allowable Development. H. The Project is not located in an area of critical state concern as designated pursuant to F.S. 380 (2002). I. A comprehensive review of the probable impacts that will be generated by Increment I of the Project was previously conducted by various City departments as part of the Increment II. A further review of probable impact due to the expansion of the DRI boundaries and redistribution of development credits within the limits of Increment II was conducted by David Plummer & Associates and the results submitted with the NOPC in a report titled "Transportation Assessment: Proposed Boundary Change to the Downtown DRI -- Increment II, which concluded that expanding the DRI boundaries resulted in no significant change in the traffic impact of Increment II. J. This Development Order is consistent with the report and recommendations of the South Florida Regional Planning Council, entitled "Development of Regional Impact Assessment for Downtown Miami - Increment II," dated July 1, 2002. The South Florida Regional Planning Council recommends approval of the expansion of the DRI Project boundaries, and all conditions to which such approval is subject are reflected herein. K. Increment II of the Project is consistent with the applicable portion of the State land development plan and the Regional Plan for South Florida. L. Increment II of the Project is in conformity with the adopted Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan. M. Increment II of the Project is in accord with the district zoning classifications of Zoning Ordinance 9500, as amended. N. Increment II of the Project will have a favorable impact on the economy of the City. O. Increment II of the Project will efficiently use public transportation facilities. P. Increment II of the Project will favorably affect the need for people to find adequate housing reasonably accessible to their places of employment. Q. Increment II of the Project will efficiently use necessary public facilities. R. Increment II of the Project will include adequate mitigative measures to assure that it will not adversely effect the environment and natural resources of the City. • 8 S. 1111 Flagstone Island Gardens shall pay any additional transportation mitigation cost above the S2,428,970 (2002 dollars) established in the approved Increment II development order prior to the issuance of the first building permit. T. Increment II of the Project will not adversely affect living conditions in the City. U. Increment II of the Project will not adversely affect public safety. V. There is a public need for Increment II of the Project. • • CONCLUSIONS OF LAW: That, having made the findings of fact contained above, the City Commission hereby concludes as a matter of law, the following: A. The DDA constitutes a "downtown development authority" as defined in F.S. 380 (1987), and is authorized by F.S. 380 (2002) to make application for development approval and receive a development order. B. Increment II of the Project complies with the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan, is consistent with the orderly development and goals of the City of Miami, and complies with local land development regulations. C. Increment II of the Project does not unreasonably interfere with the achievement of the objectives of the adopted State land development plan applicable to the City of Miami and the Regional Plan for South Florida D. Increment II of the Project is consistent with the report and recommendations of the South Florida Regional Planning Council and does not unreasonably interfere with any of the considerations and objectives set forth in F.S. 380 (2002). 9 • • • ACTION TAKEN: That, having made the findings of fact and reached the conclusions of law set forth above, it is ordered that the DRI Project boundaries are hereby expanded and the development credits with the land use categories of Increment II be redistributed to allow the proposed development in the expansion area, subject to the following conditions: THE CITY, ITS SUCCESSORS, AND/OR ASSIGNS JOINTLY OR SEVERALLY MAY ISSUE BUILDING PERMITS AND CERTIFICATES OF OCCUPANCY FOR TOTAL ALLOWABLE DEVELOPMENT, PURSUANT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS DEVELOPMENT ORDER TOGETHER WITH THE ATTENDANT MASTER DEVELOPMENT ORDER AND CONDITIONS SET FORTH IN THE INCREMENT II DEVELOPMENT ORDER ISSUED PURSUANT TO RESOLUTION 02-1307 ISSUED ON DECEBMER 12, 2002 AND ATTACHED HERETO AS EXHIBIT "C" 10
