(Ord. No. 10465, § 1, 7-21-88; Code 1980, § 13-61)
Sec. 13-97. - Intent.
(a)
This article is intended to impose the Southeast Overtown/Park West
development supplemental fee as a supplemental fee on a new development
within the Southeast Overtown/Park West project area, utilizing the defined terms
in section 13-101 below. The Southeast Overtown/Park West development
supplemental fee comprises four components including a transportation
mitigation fee, an air quality fee, a DRI/master plan recovery fee and an
administration fee. The Southeast Overtown/Park West development
supplemental fee is payable prior to the time of building permit issuance or upon
approval of certain permits, as provided for herein, in an amount based upon the
appropriate units of land use, in order to mitigate the impacts of the proposed
development in the project area as described in exhibit 1, since the demand for
the mitigation is uniquely attributable to such new development and net new
development on an area -wide basis.
City of Miami Page 2 of 41 File Id: 13-00763zt (Version 1) Printed On: 6/21/2013
(b)
This article shall be uniformly applicable to all new development and net new
development within the project area. However, certain fees applicable to
affordable housing, as defined herein, shall be borne by the City of Miami
through the Southeast Overtown/Park West community redevelopment project,
as provided in section 13-101 below. This fee shall not be uniformly applicable to
any activity which is not classified as new development or net new development
as defined herein or which has, on the effective date of the Southeast
Overtown/Park West DRI development orders, a valid building permit or currently
effective DRI development order.
(Ord. No. 10465, § 1, 7-21-88; Code 1980, § 13-62)
Sec. 13-98. - Findings.
The city commission of Miami, Florida (hereinafter "commission") hereby finds
and declares that:
(3)
(4)
The real property which is the subject of this article, the project area, is
legally described in exhibit 1.
The city has filed a CADA with the city, the South Florida Regional
Planning Council, and the Florida department of community affair state
land planning agency.
The purpose of the CADA is to identify and assess regional impacts and
to obtain approval for total allowable development in accordance with the
general guidelines set forth in the development orders and the CADA.
The city has recognized the project area as a single area of high intensity
development and focused on the impacts that the total allowable
development within the project area will have on land, water,
transportation, environmental, community services, energy and other
resources and systems of regional significance. The CADA seeks a single
state DRI review process for overall phased development of the project
area rather than requiring each individual DRI scale development within
the project area to be reviewed separately other than for a major use
special permit or its functional equivalent, and as a means of
accommodating the impacts of the non-DRI scale cumulative growth on
the project area.
Development within the project area is expected to continue to be
accomplished over an extended period of time by a variety of developers,
City of Miami Page 3 of 41 File Id: 13-00763zt (Version 1) Printed On: 6/21/2013
(5)
(6)
(7)
(8)
(9)
(10)
which may include the city. These developers may respond to market
demand and technologies that can only be estimated in the CADA. The
CADA and the DO are intended to serve as flexible guides for planned
development of the project area rather than a precise blueprint for its
development. Therefore, pursuant to F.S. § 380.06(b) (200411), the
CADA seeks master development approval for three increments of
development over a period of approximately 2540 years and specific
development approval for increment IS and increment II, and increment III.
Subsequent incremental applications may need to be adjusted to more
nearly serve the evolution of market demand and technologies.
The project area contains a total of approximately 209 acres. The CADA
has proposed a quantity of net new development within the project area
for the land uses and phases defined herein as total allowable
development.
A comprehensive assessment of the probable impacts that will be
generated by the total allowable development has been conducted by
various city departments, as reflected in the CADA, and as reviewed by
the South Florida Regional Planning Council staff.
The impacts found in the development order are consistent with the
reports and recommendations of the South Florida Regional Planning
Council, entitled "Development of Regional Impact Assessment for
Southeast Overtown/Park West Community Redevelopment Area," dated
January 4, 1988 for increment I of the Southeast Overtown/Park West
DRI; August 3, 1992 for increment II; and February 6, 2012 for increment
III.
Net new development imposes demands upon public facilities and
services benefiting the region and requires additional regional
infrastructure.
To the extent that net new development places demands upon regional
public facilities and services, those demands should be satisfied by
developments actually creating the demands.
The limiting factors determining the amount of potential development in
the project area are the effects of net new development on transportation
facilities and air quality.
City of Miami Page 4 of 41 File Id: 13-00763zt (Version 1) Printed On: 6/21/2013
The Southeast Overtown/Park West DRI and the Southeast
Overtown/Park West master plan are of benefit to all net new
development in the project area, and expenses incurred by the city in
connection with the preparation and adoption of the Southeast
Overtown/Park West DRI/master plan and for the enforcement of the
development orders should be reimbursed to the city by the net new
development benefiting therefrom.
(12)
The total amount of the Southeast Overtown/Park West development
supplemental fee is determined by the cost of the four components of the
fee: 1) transportation mitigation fee; 2) air quality fee; 3) Southeast
Overtown/Park West DRI/master plan recovery fee; and 4) administrative
fee. The most appropriate measure to distribute the proportionate share
of the cost of the transportation mitigation fee and the air quality fee shall
be the average rate of generation of p.m. peak hour external motor
vehicle trips for net new development in each land use category, as
utilized in the CADA. DRI/master plan recovery fees and administration
fees are not appropriately allocated to all net new development at an
equal rate for all land use categories.
(13)
The Southeast Overtown/Park West development supplemental fee is
being imposed on all net new development in order to pay the costs of
certain development order related requirements, as described above.
Since the demand for such development order related requirements are
uniquely created by the new development, the Southeast Overtown/Park
West development supplementary fee is equitable and does not impose
an unfair burden on such development and is in the best interest of the
city and its residents.
(14)
The primary objectives of the Southeast Overtown/Park West community
development plan are the removal of slum and blight and encouragement
of affordable housing development.
(15)
The city commission, via Resolution No. 87-619, has found that a housing
emergency exists within the city. This condition continues to exist. Thus,
the findings and conclusions of Resolution No. 87-619 are incorporated
herein by reference and made a part hereof.
(Ord. No. 10465, § 1, 7-21-88; Code 1980, § 13-63; Ord. No. 12745, § 2, 12-1-05)

(b)
The proportionate share for each unit of land use is calculated as follows:
(1)
a) Transportation mitigation. The increment II development order requires
the city to widen Northwest First Avenue from Northwest Tenth Street to
Northwest Fourteenth Street at an estimated proportionate share cost of
$636,648.00 (in 2004 dollars), in order to mitigate the regional
transportation impacts of total allowable development. The regional
transportation mitigation estimated proportionate share cost of
$636,648.00 (in 2004 dollars) is distributed among units of land use in
total allowable development based upon the average rate of generation of
p.m. peak hour external motor vehicle trips, as utilized in the CADA (see
exhibit 2 of Resolution 92-609). All development subject to increment II
shall be subject to payment of said fee by applicants.
b) The increment III development order requires a transportation
mitigation fee of $1,871,626.00 (in 2011 dollars) to mitigate the regional
transportation impacts of total allowable development. This fee was
derived from estimated improvements necessary to maintain the
minimum level of service standard on regional roadways impacted by
total allowable development (see exhibit X). The regional transportation
mitigation fee of $1,871,626.00 is distributed among units of land use
categories for the -in total allowable development based upon the average
rate of generation of p.m. peak hour external motor vehicle trips, as
utilized in the CADA (see exhibit X of Resolution 12- XXX).

(5) Cost of Living Adjustments
City of Miami Page 14 of 41 File Id: 13-00763zt (Version 1) Printed On: 6/21/2013
a) The coefficients in the ffable 1 above shall be adjusted annually on
November 1st of each year with the first adjustment occurring on April
1st, 2006, by multiplying each coefficient in the table by the formula set
forth in this paragraph (the "adjustment factor"). The adjustment factor
shall be the lesser of:
a.
b.
The percentage increase in the annual Consumer Price Index of
the prior calendar year as compared to the annual Consumer
Price Index for 2004 (188.9); or
Seven percent per year compounded for each year after 2005,
whichever is greater. The formula for the adjustment factor is as
follows:
Prior year's Consumer Price Index = adjustment factor
Divided by 188.9
b) The coefficients in the Table 2 above shall be adjusted annually on
November 1st of each year with the first adjustment occurring on Aprif
May 1st, 2013, by multiplying each coefficient in the table by the formula
set forth in this paragraph (the "adjustment factor"). The adjustment factor
shall be the lesser of:
a. The percentage increase in the annual Consumer Price Index
of the prior calendar year as compared to the annual Consumer
Price Index for 2011 (170.0); or
b. Seven percent per year compounded for each year after 2011,
whichever is greater. The formula for the adjustment factor is as
follows:
Prior year's Consumer Price Index = adjustment factor
Divided by 170.0
For these purposes, the consumer price index to be utilized shall be that
published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of
Labor, using the U.S. city average, all Urban Consumers (1982 - 1984 =
100) Not Seasonally Adjusted. In no event shall the adjustment factor for
any year be less than one. In the event that the consumer price index
referred to above is no longer published, then a comparable index which
City of Miami Page 15 of 41 File Id: 13-00763zt (Version 1) Printed On: 6/21/2013
measures inflationary factors, and the corresponding decrease in the
purchasing power of the U.S. Dollar, shall be selected by the city, and the
adjustment factor shall be based upon such index.

Air Quality
3. Assure that for any net new development proposed pursuant to this Development Order which
will include surface parking areas generating 1,500 (or greater) vehicle trips/hour or any parking
garage generating 750 (or greater) vehicle trips/hour, a Carbon Monoxide (CO) air quality
analysis shall be submitted, reviewed and approved by PERA, FDEP, the South Florida Regional
Planninig Council (SFRPC), and the City of Miami, prior to the issuance of a building permit for
the net new development. It shall incorporate the air quality analysis methodology from the
latest FDEP "Guidelines for Evaluating the Air Quality Impacts of Indirect Sources". The air
quality analysis shall demonstrate that the National Ambient Air Quality Standards for Carbon
Monoxide shall not be violated as a result of the net new development and should include, if
necessary, mitigation measures for which the project applicant shall be responsible.
4. If the results of the air quality analysis, as described in Condition 3, above, are more than 85
percent but less than 100 percent of the State standards for CO concentrations, implement an
air quality monitoring and abatement program following approval of the analysis pursuant to
Condition 3 above. The program may include the following techniques:
a. Transportation Control Measures (TCM)
b. Physical planning measures (e.g. signalization, parking area locations, addition of turn
lanes, etc.)
c. The continuance of monitoring for specified area(s).
5. If the results of the air quality analysis, as described in Condition 3, above, exceed State
standards for CO concentrations, do one of the following:
Development Order Conditions SEOPW DRI — Increment III
Page 1
a. Provide acceptable documentation which clearly indicates that CO exceedances will not
occur, or that the Net New Development seeking approval will not contribute to the
predicted CO violation, or that any potential CO additions for each Net New
Development have been or will be mitigated, subject to City approval (subsequent to
review and comment by FDEP and ERM (or its successor agency), prior to issuance of
building permits for the particular Net New Development.
b. Withhold the issuance of any building permits for Net New Development that shows CO
exceedances.
Transportation
6. a. Based upon the transportation impacts to regional facilities generated by the Total
Allowable Development for Increment III, pay or contract to pay $1,871,626
(proportionate share in 2011 dollars), to be expended on multi -modal corridor
enhancements within the SEOPW DRI that encourages transit usage to reduce impacts
to the regional roadway network. Upon final adoption of the SEOPW DRI development
order for Increment III, the CRA shall work with the City of Miami (City) to amend
Chapter 13, Article III of the City Code to update the SEOPW DRI Supplemental Fee to
enable the collection of $1,871,626 (from the Increment III Total Allowable
Development) which will be used to implement the multi -modal corridor enhancements
promoting pedestrian access and access to transit within the SEOPW DRI and the CRA.
b. Pay or contract to pay the proportionate share amount stated above within 60 days
from the date of issuance of Certificates of Occupancy for net new development in
Increment III that generates 6363 net external PM peak hour trips, which equates to
73% of the 8681 net external trips for total allowable development within Increment III.
7. Require Net New Developments to comply with City of Miami Code of Ordinances Sec. 14-182. —
Transportation control measures, as amended. In order to implement this provision, the CRA
shall draft and advocate for appropriate amendments to Chapter 14 entitled "Downtown
Development" of the Code of the City of Miami. In addition to drafting such code amendments,
the CRA shall use due diligence and its good faith efforts to lobby for and obtain approval of
such amendments by the City of Miami City Commission.
8. Continue to advocate, market and implement Transportation Demand Management (TDM)
strategies within the SEOPW DRI boundaries (in accordance with Section 14-182,
"Transportation Control Measures" of the City Code as amended), to promote a general
reduction in vehicular traffic by increasing auto occupancy and transit ridership through the
implementation of one or more of the following measures:
• Employer based parking management and ridesharing programs to promote carpooling,
vanpooling, car sharing and the use of hybrid vehicles; the installation of electric vehicle
charging stations incorporated into project parking facilities;
• Employer sponsored programs such as transit discounts, fare subsidies, transit fare tax
incentives, staggered work schedules, flexible work hours, compressed work weeks, and
telecommuting programs;
Development Order Conditions SEOPW DRI — Increment III
Page 2
• Site plan amenities such as improved pedestrian access to transit stops, stations and
shelters, the construction of transit shelters, transit drop-off locations or pull-out bays, and
the construction of bicycle storage facilities.
This information shall be biennially updated and submitted as part of the Biennial Status Report
included in Condition 18 below.
Housing and Economic Development
9. The Co -Applicants shall assure that units affordably -priced for very low and low income
households shall be provided in an amount equivalent to at least 10 percent of the number of
units proposed for development in the Increment, with such affordably -priced units including
solely newly -constructed units. Units rehabilitated during the increment will not be considered
for the purpose of determining qualifying units. The affordably -priced units credited toward
achieving the afore -stated goal shall remain affordably -priced for a period of at least 20 years.
10. The SEOPW CRA and/or its designee shall continue to operate and/or sponsor job and business
training programs at a level at least consistent with its current activity and continue to sponsor
job placement events to assist those that successfully complete its programs to find
employment. Further, it will continue to provide grants in an amount equal to those awarded
currently to those completing its business training program to assist them to start new
enterprises or expand their existing enterprises. Within 6 months of an effective SEOPW
Increment III development order, the SEOPW CRA shall adopt a resolution that explicitly
recognizes the need to maintain training programs designed to facilitate residents of the SEOPW
Redevelopment Area to access the jobs that will be housed in the Increment III development.
11. Continue its current practice of encouraging businesses and/or developers receiving financial
assistance from the SEOPW CRA, including assistance in the form of tax increment rebates, to
hire residents of the SEOPW Redevelopment Area both during the construction period and on a
permanent basis.
12. Continue to make good faith efforts to ensure that companies locating in the Increment III
development are aware of the area's State designated Enterprise Zone status, which means that
firms that hire Zone residents can utilize a number of tax saving incentives.
Energy and Water
13. Consistent with the City of Miami's Zoning Code "Miami 21" and/or requirements imposed by
the SEOPW CRA, all new development built or rehabilitated during Increment III will be energy
and water efficient and incorporate appropriate Florida friendly landscape standards.

the Application for Development Approval, and this Development Order, as well as the future
costs of reviewing individual development applications, monitoring compliance with this
Development Order, and any other costs reasonably related to the administration and
implementation of this Development Order. If necessary, the City and CRA shall establish a
procedure for rebating any such funds collected in excess of those funds attributable to a
particular development.
17. Integrate all original and supplemental Application for Development Approval (ADA) information
into a Consolidated Application for Development Approval (CADA) and submit two copies of the
CADA to the Council, one copy to the City Clerk, one copy to the Florida Department of

Credits necessary for Net New Development, at a time to be determined by the City, prior to or
coincident with approval of a building permit. The City shall place reasonable time limits on all
building permits to assure that construction progresses within a reasonable period of time after
approval to prevent stockpiling of reservations for Development Credits. The time limit
established by the City shall take into account the size of the proposed Net New Development in
relationship to the time necessary to begin construction.
20. At the time of an application for a Building Permit for any Net New Development (or upon
earlier payment of SEOPW DRI Supplemental Fee), make appropriate subtractions from the
amount of Total Allowable Development under this Development Order. No Certificates of
Occupancy shall be issued for Net New Development which would, in the aggregate, exceed the
amount of Total Allowable Development under this Development Order. Total Allowable
Development will be limited to:

The City, with prior notice to the CRA, may permit simultaneous increases and decreases in the
above described land use categories within each of the above noted Areas consistent with
Development Order Conditions
SEOPW DRI — Increment III
Page 5
Exhibit XXX attached hereto, without the need of filing for an NOPC (Notice of Proposed Change)
provided that the regional impacts of the land uses in Increment III of the Project as approved,
as measured by total peak hour vehicle trips are not increased. In addition to the foregoing, if
an individual property owner requests an administrative exchange of land use credits between
the East Area and the West Area it will require the property owner to seek approval of the CRA
Board prior to the City permitting the exchange of land use credits, based on the following
criteria:
(a) The proposed development's consistency with the Goals, Objectives and Policies
of the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan;
(b) The proposed development's consistency with the Goals and Guiding Principles
of the Southeast Overtown/Park West Community Redevelopment Plan; July, 2009, as
amended;
(c) The proposed development's consistency with Section 3.13 of Miami 21 entitled
Sustainability; and
(d) The impact of the proposed administrative exchange on Increment III's Total
Allowable Development for the remaining portion of the DRI and the degree to which
the proposed administrative exchange will impede redevelopment efforts of the DRI as
a whole.
In addition, the proposed development shall either:
(e) create affordable housing or generate employment opportunities for residents
located within the DRI; or
(f)
redevelop a blighted or environmentally contaminated site.
21. Review Net New Development that exceeds 200,000 square feet and/or 199 dwelling units to
determine if additional analysis is needed, such as, but not limited to, a site specific traffic study
and school concurrency determination to ensure infrastructure capacity will be available
concurrent with the impacts of development, as may be required by the City's Miami
Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan (MCNP) and Zoning Code.
22. Establish December 31, 2027 as the date until which the City agrees that the SEOPW -
Increment III Development of Regional Impact shall not be subject to down -zoning, unit density
reduction, or intensity reduction, unless the City can demonstrate that substantial changes in
the conditions underlying the approval of the development order have occurred, or that the
development order was based on substantially inaccurate information provided by the Co -
Applicants, or that the change is clearly essential to the public health, safety or welfare.
23. In the event any entity controlled by the CRA or any permittee or landowner of any Parcel of
Land violates (hereinafter "violator") the provisions of this Development Order, the City shall
stay the effectiveness of this Development Order as to the Parcel of Land in which the violative
Development Order Conditions SEOPW DRI — Increment III
Page 6
activity or conduct has occurred and withhold further permits, approvals, and services for
development in said Parcel of Land upon passage of any appropriate resolution by the City,
adopted in accordance with this section, finding that such violation has occurred. The violator
will be given written notice by the City that states: 1) the nature of the purported violation, and
2) that unless the violation is cured within 30 days of said notice, the City will hold a public
hearing to consider the matter within 60 days of the date of said notice. In the event the
violation is not curable in 30 days, the violator's diligent good faith efforts, as determined by the
City, to cure the violation within that period will obviate the need to hold a public hearing and
this Development Order will remain in full force and effect unless the violator does not diligently
pursue the curative action to completion within a reasonable time. In such event the City will
give 15 days' notice to the violator of its intention to stay the effectiveness of this Development
Order as to the Parcel of Land on which the violation has occurred, and withhold further
permits, approvals, and services to the Parcel of Land in which the violation has occurred until
the violation is cured. The terms of this paragraph may be modified from time to time by
written agreement by the CRA, the City, and Council staff, to enable the City to enforce the
terms of this Development Order to the fullest extent, while providing due process to all
developers under this Development Order.
24. Designate the Planning Director, City of Miami Planning and Zoning, to monitor compliance with
all conditions of this Development Order and to interpret the provisions of this Development
Order and to promulgate rulings, regulations, and procedures necessary to implement it,
provided the same are not inconsistent with the terms hereof or of F.S. 380.06 (2011), or duly
promulgated and adopted rules there under. The Planning Director shall send a copy to the CRA
of all written interpretations of the provisions of this Development Order and promulgation of
all implementing rulings, regulations, and procedures. Appeals to decisions of the Planning
Director may be filed pursuant to procedures set forth in Section 7.1.5 of the Miami 21 Code,
the Zoning Ordinance of the City of Miami, Florida, as amended. Any noncompliance shall be
subject to the provisions of Condition 23 herein.
25. Continue to coordinate with the City's Police Department to ensure adequate provision of police
services for the project.
26. Continue to work with the City's Fire Department to ensure the adequate provision of
fire/rescue services necessary to serve the project.
GENERAL CONDITIONS:
27. The CADA is incorporated herein by reference and will be relied upon by the parties in
discharging their commitments and statutory duties under F.S. 380.06 (2011), and local
ordinances. Substantial compliance with the factual representations contained in the CADA is a
condition for approval.
28. All terms, proposals, suggestions and procedures proposed in the ADA, but not specifically
incorporated in this Development Order, shall not be considered a part of the CADA insofar as
they may have been deemed to place a requirement on the City of Miami to take any action or
abstain from taking any action. The terms of this Development Order shall control and any
requirements applicable to the City are specifically enumerated herein.

Pursuant to F.S. 380.06(52) (1987198725) (1987), as amended, -the Project specifies the total amount
of development planned for each land use category, but provides flexibility for such development to be
located anywhere within the Project Area, subject to local land development regulations. The Project
Area includes all property within the boundaries of the Southeast Overtown/Park West Community
Redevelopment Area, designated in 1982 by City Commission Resolution No. 82-755 (Not the amended
Master Development Order Conditions
SEOPW DRI Incrcmcnt III
Page 1
SEOPW Redevelopment Area Boundary), as illustrated on the map in Exhibit 1 and described in Exhibit 2
attached hereto. The Project Area contains a total of approximately 209 acres of land.
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 Development Approval for
the Southeast Overtown / Park West Community Redevelopment Area filed by the City of Miami on
February 6, 1987, pursuant to F.S. 380.06 (1987).
CADA or Consolidated Application for Development Approval: The revised ADA prepared pursuant to
paragraph 20 herein.1' on page 12 herein.
Certificate of Occupancy: A permanent or temporary and/or partial Certificate of Occupancy issued,
pursuant to Section 307 of the South Florida Building Code, for any "Net New Development" as defined
herein.
City: The City of Miami, Florida.
Council: The South Florida Regional Planning Council.
DEO A: "e—giepaftment—eff—C-e Rty A s, kno acDEO:—The Department of Economic
Opportunity, (DEO), formerly known as the Department of Community Affairs.
DRI: Development of Regional Impact.
Development Credits: The individual units of land uses included within Total Allowable Development, as
measured by square footage, or number of dwelling units, hotel units, or seats.
Development Order (DO): An order granting, denying, or granting with conditions an application for a
development permit.
DRI: Development of Regional Impact.
ERM: The Miami -Dade County Department Regulatory and Economic Resources, Environmental
Resources Management, formerly known as the Department of Environmental Resource Management.
Major Use Special Permit: A special permit issued by the City Commission pursuant to Ordinance
45 01100011000, the Zoning Ordinance of the City of Miami, as amended.
Miami 21: The Zoning Ordinance of the City of Miami, Ordinance No. 13177, adopted May 13, 2010, 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 attraction/recreation facilities or
gross square footage for office, government offices, 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. Simultaneous increases and decreases in land use
categories may be approved without necessity of a notification of a proposed change to a previously
IMaster Development Order Conditions SEOPW DRI Increment III
Page 2
approved DRI. Such modifications are permitted administratively as long as the total vehicle trip
generation is not exceeded. 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.
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.
Project: That Project described in the "PROJECT DESCRIPTION" on Page 1 herein.
Project Area: The area included within the legal description in Exhibit 2 (Bounded by 1-95, 1-395, N. 5th
Street and Biscayne Blvd.).
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 any
attendant Incremental Development Order, and as may be modified pursuant to F.S. 380.06(19)
(19871987) as amended. The City may permit simultaneous increases and decreases between the land
use categories, provided that the regional impacts of the land uses as changed will not exceed the
adverse regional impacts of the Project as originally approved, as measured by total peak hour vehicle
trips. Furthermore, "telecommunications hubs" are a permitted use that may be substituted for any
permitted land use based upon equivalent impacts as measured by peak hour vehicle trip generation
pursuant to the "Trip Generation Study for Telecommunications Facilities" prepared by Keith & Schnars,
P.A., for Beacon Trade Port Associates and dated February 2001. (See Exhibit "E"). A
"telecommunications hub" is a facility designed and constructed primarily to house computer servers,
communications routers, switches and similar machinery or equipment for directing or facilitating
communications traffic. However, under no circumstances shall this total amount of the
"telecommunications hub" use exceed 15% of the DRI land area.
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 2.
C. The City of Miami filed the ADA with the City, the Council, and the Florida Department of
Community Affairs.
D. The ADA has been filed by the City of Miami pursuant to F.S. 380.06( 2525) (1987)-,), as
amended, authorizing the City of Miami 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
Master Development Order Conditions SEOPW DRI Incrcmcnt IIE
Page 3
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
Southeast Overtown/Park West Community Redevelopment 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, as described in the Definitions, is expected to continue to
be accomplished over an extended period of time by a variety of developers, which may include
the CRA and the City. These developers may respond to market demand and technologies that
can only be estimated in the CADA. The CADA and the DO are intended to serve as flexible
guides for planned development of the Project Area rather than a precise blueprint for its
development. Therefore, pursuant to F.S. 380.06(21)(b) (1987), as amended, the CADA seeks
master development approval for three increments of development over a period of
approximately forty years and specific development approval for Increment I, which is
the first phase of development projected for a period of approximately five years. Subsequent
incremental applications may will need to be adjusted to more nearly serve as a living guide
recognizing the evolution of market demand and technologies.
G. The Project Area contains a total of approximately 209 acres. The CADA proposes Net New
Development within the Project Area for the land uses, quantities and phases defined herein as
