Approximately East Side of Virginia Key
File ID 12-011801u2
REQUEST
The proposal is for a change to the Future Land Use Map of the Miami Comprehensive
Neighborhood Plan from "Major Institutional, Public Facilities, Transportation, and Utilities°' and
"Conservation" to `Public Parks and Recreation". (A complete legal description is on file at the
Hearing Boards Office).
FUTURE LAND USE
Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan (MCNP) Policy LU-1.6.1 established future land use
categories according to the 2020 Future Land Use Map and the "Interpretation of the Future
Land Use Map."
The "Conservation" designation is restricted to environmentally sensitive areas that are to
be left in an essentially natural state. Only activities that reinforce this character are allowed.
Public access to these areas, including off-street parking, may be limited when unregulated
access may present a threat to wildlife and plant life within such areas.
The "Major Institutional, Public Facilities, Transportation and Utilities"' designation al-
lows facilities for federal, state and local government activities, major public or private
health, recreational, cultural, religious or educational activities, and major transportation fa-
cilities and public utilities. Residential facilities ancillary to these uses are allowed up to a
maximum density equivalent to "High Density Multifamily Residential" or if applicable the
least intense abutting/adjacent residential zoning district, subject to the same limiting condi-
tions.
Areas designated as "Major Institutional, Public Facilities, Transportation and Utilities allow
nonresidential uses to a maximum floor lot ratio (FLR) of 6.0 times the net tot area of the
subject property. Properties designated "Major Institutional, Public Facilities, Transportation
and Utilities" in the Health / Civic Center District allow a maximum floor lot ratio (FLR) of 8.0
times the net lot area of the subject property. Properties designated "Major Institutional,
Public Facilities, Transportation and Utilities" in the Urban Central Business District allow a
maximum FLR of 37.0 times the net lot area of the subject property.
The "Public Parks and Recreation" designation's primary intent is to conserve open space
and green spaces of a park while allowing access and uses which will not interfere with the pre-
servation of any significant environmental features which may exist within the park.
This land use designation allows only open space and park uses with recreational and cultural
uses where the total building footprints may cover no more than 25% of the park land area.
Both passive and active recreational uses shall be permitted including but not limited to nature
trails, interpretive centers, picnic areas, playgrounds, canoe trails and launches, small conces-
sion stands, restrooms. gyms, swimming pools, athletic fields, cultural facilities. marine and ma-
rina facilities and other facilities supporting passive and active recreational and cultural uses.
Lands under this designation with specific qualities that make them desirable for commercial
photography shall be allowed to be used in this manner conditionally, and only when it is deter-
mined that conducting such commercial photography will not endanger significant environmen-
tal features within the area.
DISCUSSION
The subject area consists of approximately 40,2 acres; of which 12,2 acres is currently
designated "Major Institutional, Public Facilities, Transportation, and Utilities" and 28.0 acres is
currently designated "Conservation". The area is accessed by Arthur Lamb Jr. Road and
Sewage Plant Road via the Rickenbacker Causeway. The area to the northeast of the site is
designated "Conservation", the areas to the north, south, and southeast of the site are
designated "Public Parks and Recreation", while the area west of the site is designated "Major
Institutional, Public Facilities, Transportation, and Utilities" and is the location of a Miami -Dade
County Water and Sewer Department Sewage Treatment Facility. The northern part of the site
is located in the "Coastal High Hazard Area'. The subject site is in the
DOWNTOWN/BRICKELL NET area.
ANALYSIS
The Planning Department is recommending APPROVAL of the application as presented
based on the following findings:
• MCNP Policy PR-3.2.9 states that the City will increase public recreational opportunities on
Virginia Key through the Virginia Key Master Plan and its implementation. The proposed
amendment puts Future Land Use Designations in place that are in compliance with the
approved Virginia Key Master Plan.
• MCNP Policy PR-6.1.2 states that the City will work to implement the specific master plans
that include parks and recreation facilities, such as the Coconut Grove Waterfront Master
Plan, the Museum Park Master Plan, and the Virginia Key Master Plan, and create
pedestrian and water linkages among Fern Isle Park, Sewell Park, the recently acquired
Police Benevolent Association property, and Curtis Park to create a Miami :.Central Park."
As depicted in the Waterfront Master Plan and programmed in the CIE, the City will provide
a continuous network of public parks and major attractions along the downtown waterfront.
The proposed amendment allows for the continued implementation of the Virginia Key
Master Plan.
• MCNP Policy SS-1.2.4 states that the City will, through its Intergovernmental Coordination
Policies, negotiate with M-DWASD to seek cooperative agreements to ensure that the
operation of the Central District wastewater treatment facility on Virginia Key does not
degrade the natural environment or limit the public's access to recreational opportunities on
the island. The proposed amendment allows for recreation buffers between the sewage
treatment plant and natural areas to the east.
• MCNP Goal LU-1 states that the City will maintain a land use pattern that (1) protects and
enhances the quality of life in the City`s neighborhoods; (2) fosters redevelopment and
revitalization of blighted or declining areas; (3) promotes and facilitates economic
development and the growth of job opportunities in the city; (4) fosters the growth and
development of downtown as a regional center of domestic and international commerce,
culture and entertainment; (5) promotes the efficient use of land and minimizes land use
conflicts while protecting and preserving residential sections within neighborhoods; (6)
protects and conserves the city's significant natural and coastal resources; and (7) protects
the integrity and quality of the City's existing neighborhoods by insuring public notice, input
and appellant rights regarding changes in existing zoning and land use regulations. This
amendment protects and conserves the City's significant natural and coastal resources by
permitting park and recreational uses that promote public access to the water.
• MCNP Land Use Policy 1,1.1 provides that new development or redevelopment that results
in an increase in density or intensity of land use shall be contingent upon availability of
public facilities and services that meet or exceed the minimum LOS standards adopted in
the Capital Improvements Element.
• The Strategic Policy Plan for South Florida (SPPSF) Policy 14.6 states to include adequate
buffer zones between development and Natural Resources of Regional Significance. The
buffer zones shall provide complementary natural habitat values and functions so that the
natural system values of the site are not negatively impacted by adjacent uses. The buffer
zones shall be a minimum of 25 feet in width and in proportion to the scale of project, taking
into account the needs of the adjacent natural resource. The buffer zones should further the
viability of the adjacent natural resource, effectively separating the development impacts
from the natural resource and reducing habitat fragmentation. The proposed amendment
provides a recreation buffer zone between the sewage treatment plant and the conservation
areas along Virginia Key's coast.
• SPPSF Policy 10.1 seeks to preserve lands designated as open space, parks and
recreation, and conservation; these areas shall contain uses that are directly related to
active or passive recreation or habitat preservation. The proposed amendment is
consistent with this policy.
• SPPSF Policy 10.2 seeks to maintain and revitalize parks so that they offer comfort,
sociability, access, and a variety of activities to meet the mixed and varied needs of their
visitors. The proposed amendment is consistent with this policy as it intends to allow for the
implementation of the Landfill Park Plan and the Shrimper's Lagoon, Public Beach and
Coastal Hammock Restoration Plan in a manner that is consistent with the adopted Virginia
Key Master Plan.
3
• The MCNP Land Use Policy 1.1.1 provides that new development or redevelopment that
results in an increase in density or intensity of land use shall be contingent upon availability
of public facilities and services that meet or exceed the minimum LOS standards adopted in
the Capital Improvement Element. This Future Land Use amendment will maintain LOS
requirements.
• Because this proposal is reducing or maintaining the potential for residential density to "0"
dwelling units per acre, a school concurrency analysis is not required.
• The Miami 21 zoning designation currently approved for the site is CI — "Civic Institution
Zone" and T1 — "Natural Transect Zone". The proposed designation is CS — "Civic Space
Zone".
These findings support the position that the Future Land Use Map at this location and for this
neighborhood should be changed.
