Based on our research of the files that were available, we have found a Miami -Dade County memorandum dated February 25, 1985 entitled "Florida Department of Community Affairs (DCA) DRI Monitoring Plan". This memorandum was submitted to the City of Miami and the State of Florida for the purpose of reporting on the status of compliance with the mitigation requirements. A copy of this memorandum is attached for reference. Of particular relevance to the NOPC currently under consideration is the information regarding Traffic Circulation. The memorandum states, TRAFFIC CIRCULATION: 71% of the street improvements required to implement the DGC Phase One traffic circulation plan are now operating and in use. This will increase to 80% upon completion of the next scheduled component in August 1985. The entire DGC Phase One street improvement program is planned for completion by the County by or before the end of 1986. Our research has also found a memorandum dated February 22, 1983 entitled "Downtown Government Center Traffic Circulation". This memorandum outlines all the improvements that were programmed for the purpose of addressing the requirements of the development order in a manner, "...assuming and accepting a continuation of emphasis on pedestrian mobility within the Center." According to the memorandum, this circulation plan was endorsed by a committees of the Board of County Commissioners in 1982 and 1983 and endorsed by the City of Miami and the Downtown Development Authority in 1982. A copy of this memorandum is attached. To our knowledge, the improvements contained in the memorandum were implemented. 12 • FLO14[DA DEPARTMENT 08 COMMUNITY AFFAIRS (➢CA) DRI MONITORING PROGRAM February 25, 1985 Development!

CENTRAL UTILITIES: County -owned telephone and computer - data -Switching and distribution is now operating in all its components within the DOC area. An energy -efficient central chilled -water supply and computerized building management system already serves the County facilities built under the DOC Phase One Development Plan. Con- version to this system will continue over the next few years as present occupants cf the near-b.y.Co'unty Court- house and Fiagier Building are relocated to the new DOC buildings and these older st-ructures are renovated for new occupants, By mid-1985 equipment currently being installed in the Csntrai Support Facility should afford s.'ubatantiaily greater energy -savings derived from the resulting cogeneration plant to be privately owned and operated under agreement with the County. 2. A comprehensive description of most of "the- commitments apn plan coaracteristics whic': were stated, illustrated or implied in the Application tor Development Approval (AAA) or subsequent submissions at the developer; which were important considerations in the approval of the development" appears in the 23 conaittons of the Develop- meot order, These conditions provided confirmation of ^CC ,z 6 5. 0, 13 • • FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY AFFAIRS (DCA) DRI MONITORING PaOCRAM PAGE TWO, as. many, if not more,such commitments and plan charac- teristics as the developers may legally, financially, or otherwise- be able to sustain, in compliance with. Development Order Condition 21 many. other -considerations in the approval were reflected by the- incorporation of all original .and additional revisions to the originally submitted ADA into one complete document and the transmittal of copies of this document to the City - of Miami, (5. copies), the SFKPG. c6), and the DCA l ), Furthermore it is perhaps .important to understand that both. the approved ADA and the Development Order were also intended to provide. for the complete translation into physical forth of public policy, goals, and objectives for the project that have been generated and sustained by its tri-partite governmental support. Twenty—three years ago, Dade County and the City of Miami embarked on a long-term project to develop a Govern;nent Center in the region's downtown core as had first been proposed in. 1960. As. this process has evolved, overall goals for the project have been further defined to include! o conso.lidatibn of government services in a central location, o to create an appropriate physical and symbolic setting for government; o to 'foster interaction among government agencies. o to make it more convenient -and efficient for people to do business with their government. • to stimulate revitali2at.ion of the region's historical heartland. o creation of a new focal point for cultural and govern- rir-htal affairs to which the public can relate. with genuine pride. o to encourage the use of mass transit and other modes of transportation in lieu of private automobiles. In order to achieve these goals certain broad objectives and plan characteristics had emerged at the time of the ADA for the project's Phase One develormen.t; among them,: o to give physical expression to the DCC as a place distinct from, yet closely linked to, the fabric of the city. o to locate each government agency within an identifiable precinct. o to create a central open space t-o give unity and coherence to the various government .buildings. o through the provision of cultural, recreational, and imited- commercial amenities to encourage extensive Public activity in the DGC on a broad time schedule. 3. A copy of the complete Phase One Development Order and its conditions was included with the transmittal of the revised ADA mentioned in the preceeding response to question number 2. • • • FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF COCOMMUNITY AFFAIRS (DCA) DRI MONITORING PROGRAM PACE THREE, 4. In November of 1982 the City found no substantial deviation and amended the Development Order (D.O.) by adopting Resolution No. 82-1072. to a) require a market analysis for verification of a need for retail facilities to serve the central open space, b) extend the SFRPC review period for the traffic study required under D.O. condition 7 to coincide with the Open Spare plan review period stipulated under 0,0, condition 6, and c) to extend the deadline for acquisition. of sight of way for street improvements required under D.O. condition 8. At its January 10, 1983 Meeting the SFRPC voted not to appeal this amendment. The TABLE 1.2.1 PHASING OF BUILD1t(G DEVELOPMENT projected dates for construction and operation of the three Phase 1 Metro -Dade County buildings were generally one year earlier than those actuality experienced.

Little TO Development Coordinator DATE February 22, 1983 Downtown Government Center FROM William M. Powell Director Public Works Department sueJECT Downtown Government Center Traffic Circulation This report memorandum is submitted in response to a requirement placed on the Downtown Government Center Development plan, by the South Florida Regional planning Council. The Public Works Department has analyzed both long and short term traffic circulation needs within the developing: Downtown Government Center. This analysis was conducted assuming and accepting a continuation of emphasis on pedestrian. mobility within the. Center. The attached drawing reflects this Department's circulation plan and contains the following significant elements, some of which depart from previous study recommendations. ELEMENT 1. Construction improvements are currently under contract on N. W. 3 Avenue at. N. W. 2 Street and N. W. 3 Court from N. W. 2 Street to West Flagler Street. These improvements will provide significant increases in capacity and circulation and are basic to this recommendation or any variation. 2. Concluding construction of the Central Support facilities site (Designation A), westbound Flagler Street west of 2 Avenue will. be channelized to 3 Avenue providing westward continuation via N. W. 1 Street. . Northwest 2 Street from 3 Court to 2 Avenue will be converted to two-way operation. This change significantly improves access to City and County parking garages and will be implemented upon completion of garage construction. 4. Northwest 3 Street from 3 Court to 1 Avenue will be converted to two-way operation: one eastbound, 2 westbound lanes with left tarn lanes constructed at 2 Avenue.. 5. Northwest 2 Avenue will be improved to provide a three -lane section which will facilitate left turning movements between S. W. 1 Street and N. W. 5 Street. 6. Pavement :narking changes will be accomplished by `arch, 1983, on both 3 Avenue and 3 Court to provide better channelization and utilization of existing pavement. • • Sta hen C. Little - 2 - February 22, 1983 7, Met.ro.bus activity will be accommodated within this plan by a terminal facility adjacent to 8. W. 1. Avenue and curb- side operations anticipated along N. W... 1 Avenue between N. W. 2 and .N. W. 1 streets. 8. Numerous resurfacing., striping, signing and construction improvements of radius returns within the Government Center will be implemented at various Locations. 9. imp.lementatiOn Of this plan will necessitate removal of on -street parking along west 2 Avenue from S. W. 1 Street to N. W. 5 Street, and N. W. 2 Street from 3 Avenue to 2 Avenue. When the fetrebus curbside operation (Element 7) is initiated, on --.street parking. along N, W. 1 Avenue from N. W. 1 Street to N. W. 5 Street would be removed. Implementation of this plan will provide the maximum balance between pedestrian activity and the minimum intrusion of. vehicle motor traffic,. while providing ingress and egress and circulation to the center. In presenting this matter to the South Florida Regional Planning Council, itis significant to note that this plan was endorsed by the Board of County Commission Internal Support. Service Subcommittee on November 18, 1982, and the Transportation Subcommittee on January 13, 1983. By letter, The City of Miami (November 17, 1982). and Downtown Development Authority (December 10, 1982) have also endorsed this plan. WNP/CWB/em Attachment cc: Walter A. Herndon, Jr. Charles W.

This assumption was based on the review of previously approved documents and information received from the City of Miami. With the continued assistance of the City of Miami, we have secured additional documentation that supports our earlier assumptions. Upon review of the Miami Downtown DRI Study dated 1986 we found that the permitted developments taken into consideration for the Transportation Analysis contained the following projects contained in the Downtown Government Center, as described in Map J-3A "Permitted Development Locations".

This request was made on behalf of the Downtown Development Authority. Miami -Dade County does not object to retaining the parcel within the development order for the Downtown Government Center provided the square footage allocated for the City's development does not negatively impact on the County future plans for development. In an effort to resolve this issue, the County requested that the City provide an estimation of the City's future use for parcel C-3. Our research has found that the City of Miami Police Department is considering this parcel for the development of training center for law enforcement personnel. While plans are currently in process, the City has not determined the size of the facility, as it will depend of those operational components that are included. According to City of Police staff, the City is preparing request documents to retain planning and design services to program the facility and indicated that the facility size could range from 100,000 to 300,000 square feet. Based on the information available at this time, the County is increasing its NOPC request to allow for a total of 1,500,000 square feet thereby allocating 300,000 square feet to the development of the City training facility. The City has verbally agreed that in the event the size of the facility exceeds 300,000 square feet, the City will be responsible to file an NOPC application to increase the allocation of allowable square footage in the Downtown Government Center.
