Honorable City Commission
3500 Pan American Drive
Miami, FL 33133
Re: Recommendation to Approve PZ.1 & PZ.2
Dear Honorable City Commission:
This letter serves as the Miami River Commission's (MRC) "official
statement" as requested in City Resolution 00-320, regarding the May
9, 2013 City Commission Agenda Items PZ.1 & PZ.2, which impact
the Miami River.
During the MRC's March 4, 2013 public meeting, Vicky Garcia -
Toledo presented the subject "River Landing" mixed use project,
featuring a 50-foot wide public riverwalk, 2 side yards and middle
corridor which are all publicly accessible 24 hours per day, 7 days per
week, with no waivers, exemptions, exceptions or reductions of the
public riverwalk provisions required under the City of Miami's Zoning
Code Sections 3.11, and Appendix B. The MRC passed a unanimous
resolution recommending approval of "River Landing" as it is
consistent with the Miami River Greenway Action Plan and the Miami
River Corridor Urban Infrll Plan.
Your continued support for the Miami River is appreciated.
Sincerely,
4.•••14:
Horacio Stuart Aguirre
Chairman,
Miami River Commission
