WHEREAS, the CITY has made application to FDOT for certification for local zoning control of murals within the CITY'Sjurisdictional boundaries under provisions of the Highway Beautification Act, 23 U.S.C. Sec. 131, et seq. ("HBA"), the Florida/U.S. Department of Transportation Agreement of January 27, 1972 ("Federal/State Agreement"), Federal Regulations, 23 C.F.R. Sec. 750.706, and Chapter 479.156, Florida Statues ("F.S."); and WHEREAS the Parties recognize the complexity of the implementation of the Highway Beautification Act and associated challenges; and WHEREAS, the CITY, is a local zoning authority, WHEREAS, the CITY, as a local zoning authority, has the ability to vary from the Federal/State Agreement based on a determination of customary use per Federal regulation after receiving delegated authority from FDOT to direct all or portions of outdoor advertising within its jurisdictional limits; and WHEREAS, the Parties have been working collaboratively and in good faith in their roles in managing outdoor advertising programs and believed no actions have been actions in direct violation of federal and state laws; and WHEREAS, the CITY had unique practices and a local ordinance regulating outdoor advertising displays prior to January 27, 1972; and WHEREAS, the CITY has documented such practices through historical documents, ordinance, and photographs; and WHEREAS, the CITY, in consultation with FDOT and FHWA, proposes a determination of customary use pursuant to 23 U.S.C. 131; and WHEREAS, the Parties identified a need to document and agree upon the mutual acceptance of customary use implementation; and WHEREAS, the CITY amended its application for certification in its letter to FDOT of September 13, 2011, and wishes to specify and agree to additional provisions for mural control; and WHEREAS, the CITY shall make changes to the City of Miami Code of Ordinances, as amended ("Code") in accordance with this Agreement by October 2013; In consideration of the mutual covenants, contained in this Agreement, the Parties agree as follows: 1. Amendment of the Code. Section 62-606(3) of the Code shall be amended to conform to the following: (3) Spacing of Murals A. Spacing between murals and number of murals allowed per building. A mural shall not be located within 300 feet of another legally permitted mural oriented towards the same side of the street within the controlled area, as defined in Section 479.01(6), F.S.,(2012). The distance shall be measured in FINAL Miami/FDOT/FHWA/ Customary Use Agreement Page 1 accordance with Rule 14-10.006(4), Florida Administrative Code ("F.A.C.") (2012) (i.e., measured along the edge of pavement of the main traveled way). The spacing requirement provided herein shall be reduced to 150 feet within the boundaries of the Park West Entertainment District. If two murals are permitted for any one building, they must be on different sides of the building and each such mural shall be required to obtain a separate mural permit for each street front. This section shall not preclude a mural on one building which is continuous on two sides of the building, commonly referred to as a wrap -around mural. A wrap -around mural shall be counted as one mural for purposes of fees and the maximum number of mural permits which may be issued pursuant to the Code. B. Spacing between murals and billboards. A permit for a new mural shall not be issued for a mural located within 300 feet of a legally permitted billboard or mural located within the controlled area, as defined in Section 479.01(6), F.S. (2012). The distance shall be measured in accordance with Rule 14- 10.006(4), F.A.C. (2012). The spacing requirement provided herein shall be reduced to 150 feet within the boundaries of the Park West Entertainment District. C. Existing Signs. Subject to compliance with all other City ordinance requirements, all mural permits which will become non -conforming pursuant to this section are subject to the following conditions unless revoked or rescinded by the City pursuant to section 62-612 of the Code or unless they are transferred by the Permitee pursuant to Section 62-609 (b) of the Code. (i) Existing murals within the Park West Entertainment District. Existing murals within the Park West Entertainment District are depicted in in Exhibit A and will be at the time of execution of this Agreement legally permitted yet not in compliance with the newly clarified distance requirements. All of these permitted sites shall be allowable mural locations as they have been erected in compliance with the ordinance and remain legal non -conforming so long as they do not violate the ordinance until the mural permit is revoked, rescinded or transferred to a new location. No new mural permit may be issued at the same or transferred site without compliance with the above spacing requirements. (ii) Existing murals outside of the Park West Entertainment District. Existing murals outside the Park West Entertainment District fall under one of three categories as noted in Exhibit A. In Category 1, once a mural permit has been revoked, rescinded, or transferred to a new location, no new mural permit may be issued at the same or transferred site without compliance with the above spacing requirements. In Category 2, the City may not issue a new permit unless the spacing requirements as outlined in this Agreement are met. Mural locations that at the time of execution of this Agreement are legally permitted yet not in compliance with the newly clarified distance requirements shall be allowable mural locations for the time remaining in the lease with the property owner at the time the mural location was approved by the City. Should the duration of the lease exceed 10 years from the date of execution of this Agreement, then the Qualified Mural Applicant with rights to the location shall apply for relocation to a property that does meet the requirements as outlined by this Agreement and the relevant sections of the Code at the time the relocation is applied for, or the permit will be revoked or rescinded. In Category 3, existing murals which do not provide a visual conflict to other existing murals or billboards may remain although the spacing requirements have not been met. Existing murals which currently meet the above spacing criteria or are outside of HBA Controlled Routes are also noted in Exhibit A. Exhibit B contains a map locating all murals identified in Exhibit A. The City may amend Section 62-606 from time to time so long as (i) the spacing criteria established herein is not reduced; and (ii) the boundaries of the Park West Entertainment District are not increased.

CITY MANAGER September 13, 2011 Ananth Prasad, P.E., Secretary Florida Department of Transportation 605 Suwannee Street Tallahassee, FL 32399-0450 P.O. BOX 330708 MIAMI, FLORIDA33235-0708 (305) 250-5400 FAX (305) 250-5410 Re: City of Miami Certification for Local Control of Wall Murals —Evidence of Customary Use for Control of pacing, Lighting and Size Predating 1965 Dear Secretary P AN We have reviewed the Federal Highway Administration ("FHWA") letter of June 17, 2011 ("FHWA Letter"), to -the Florida Depaituient of Transportation ("FDOT") (Exhibit A) and wish to offer factual corrections to clarify the record and to assure you that when notification of certification of the City of Miami ("City") is made by FDOT, "effective control" has been and will continue to be implemented over all outdoor advertising, including wall murals and billboards within the City's jurisdiction. While the City's sign regulations have evolved along with its growth and development into an international city, the City has maintained regulations controlling the size, spacing and lighting of signage since 1965. We are addressing three specific issues raised in the FHWA Letter and are providing an explanation, with examples, of results of applying City of Miami Ordinance No. 7338, adopted in 1965 ("1965 Ordinance") (Exhibit B) to today and comparing it to the more restrictive controls enacted by the City in Ordinance No. 12983, adopted in 2008 ("2008 Ordinance") (Exhibit C). Also included within this correspondence is extensive photographic evidence of the placement, spacing and lighting of outdoor advertising in the primary corridors and arteries of the City. The attached examples attest to the customary use of such advertising throughout our thoroughfares. (Exhibits D-0) evidence outdoor advertising on primary and arterial roads) 1) Comprehensive,.Controls The City is comprehensively controlling spacing between wall murals and all other types of outdoor advertising signs. Control of wall murals with respect to size, spacing and lighting is not occurring in isolation from other signs, displays or devices regulated by the Highway Beautification Act ("HBA") in the controlled area. A system of fully integrated and comprehensively controlled wall murals and billboards, including size, spacing and lighting, is in place today through local ordinance (see Chapter 62, Article 8 Division 5, Section 62-606, subsections 5 and 6 and Division 6: and Ordinance No. 12983, Section 62-606, Code of the City of Miami). Today's controls are generally more stringent for both wall murals and billboards than the regulations existing at the time of the FederaUState Agreement in 1972. It is Ananth Prasad, Secretary, FDOT September 13, 2011 Page 2 extremely important to recognize that in 1972, as today, there was a customary distinction between wall mural and billboard regulation, as evidenced by the 1965 Ordinance. (See Ordinance No. 7338, Section II — Definitions, et. seq.) This historic difference between billboard and wall mural regulation therefore constituted a customary use existing prior to 1972 and is the basis for the hybrid type of certification requested herein. The City's current ordinance is also consistent in recognizing the long-standing, customary usage that there was not a spacing standard between wall murals and billboards. 2) Size The ordinance in effect in 1972 and before, if applied in Miami today, would allow wall murals which exceed the 10,000 sq. ft. restriction established in the 2008 Ordinance. (See Ordinance No. 12983, Section 62-606, Code of the City of Miami) In light of this, it is apparent that the City has not revised its outdoor advertising controls arbitrarily over time, but instead has thoughtfully decided on a more restrictive approach, and one which includes criteria which were customary in 1972 and before. (See Chapter 62, Article 8, Division 5, Section 62-606, sub- section 1 and 2 "Criteria for Issuing a Wall Mural Peiiuit.") Furthermore, if the size formula in the 1965 Ordinance were applied today to the buildings in Miami which currently have wall murals, some of the current wall murals would actually be allowed to be larger than would be allowed today. Also, because of the significantly larger building structures within the City today, using the 1965 formula and applying it to the modern structures would yield substantially larger wall murals than allowed under the current 2008 ordinance (see citation above). As an example of this, a building the size of the existing Four Seasons Hotel and Tower, depending on the location within the City, when applying the 1965 criteria, would allow a wall mural in excess of 14,000 sq.ft. In the 2008 Ordinance, a building this size would not be allowed to have a wall mural of greater than 10,000 sq ft. Moreover, even larger building structures are in the planning stages for construction within the City. As examples, the Miami City Centre and the current Miami Herald sites are in the planning stages for major development. Miami City Centre is a proposed 5.65 acre parcel of land located in Brickell Village. A project of this scope, with its extensive street frontage and height, if the 1965 size formula were applied, would permit a wall mural potentially greatly in excess of 10,000 sq.ft. A planned development at the Miami Herald site could also yield a wall mural in excess of 10,000 sq.ft. if the 1965 ordinance was applied. Under the more restrictive 2008 Ordinance, both proposed developments will be limited to a 10,000 sq.ft. mural (see citation above). 3) Spacina As FHWA has noted in their letter, the 1965 Ordinance did not restrict spacing between wall murals, between billboards, or between wall murals and billboards, as demonstrated by both ordinances and the several photos submitted in the City's certification request. However, the 1965 Ordinance in Article XXIV, Section 1(9), did regulate the distance between signs and City designated waterways and limited access highways. Therefore, the 1965 Ordinance included an early version of distance regulations which through time has evolved into not only restricting distance from specific locations, but also restricting the distances from sign to sign. In the 2008 Ordinance, the City chose to be more restrictive by imposing the spacing standards of the Ananth Prasad, Secretary, FDOT September 13, 2011 Page 3 Federal/State agreement on billboards and establishing a three hundred (300) foot minimum spacing distance between wall murals (except for murals located in the City Park West Entertainment District/ Community Redevelopment District, where special rules are necessary to encourage economic development). The current ordinance is consistent with the customary use as to spacing in the 1965 ordinance in that it does not require a minimum spacing between wall murals and billboards. Photographs are attached which demonstrate the general and customary spacing of signs in the City during this time period. In addition to the restrictions described above, the 2008 ordinance provides for a number of additional limitations and restrictions that were not included in the 1965 ordinance. These include: ❑ In the 2008 ordinance, murals are only allowed in tightly defined zoning districts within a specified geographic area which has been approved by the City and which is consistent with federal and state law. The ordinance tightly controls commercial and industrial areas where murals can be placed, and not all commercial and industrial areas can have murals, unlike the 1965 ordinance. ❑ The 1965 ordinance allows for an unlimited number of wall murals in the commercial zone, while the 2008 ordinance strictly limits the number. ❑ Unlike the 1965 ordinance in which anyone can obtain a permit, the 2008 code has very stringent qualifications to become a qualified applicant, and ultimately a permittee. A permittee must post $500,000 bond with the City to ensure safety compliance. Cl The 2008 ordinance requires that permittees be in compliance with City building codes for safety and hurricane issues, unlike the 1965 ordinance. ❑ The 1965 Ordinance had no caps on total size or restrictions on the percentage of the sign that can be placed on a wall or over windows. The 2008 ordinance restricts the mural to 80% of the wall area and 33% of window cover, with a 10,000 sq. ft. maximum. ❑ The 2008 ordinance allows for only 15% textual matter, and is tightly controlled by the Zoning Administrator. Ad copy must be submitted to the Zoning Administrator for approval, prior to posting. Neither restriction applied in the 1965 ordinance. ❑ Lighting is restricted to indirect illumination and to defined times (from 7 pm to 12 pm), which is more restrictive than the 1965 ordinance. ❑ The 2008 ordinance restricts moving messages and other electronic movements, which were not limited in the 1965 ordinance. ❑ The 2008 ordinance provides tightly defined rules on compliance with hurricane warnings. Once warnings are given, signs must be removed within 24 hours subject to enforcement provisions. Ananth Prasad, Secretary, FDOT September 13, 2011 Page 4 In light of the information provided above, and after discussions and consultations with FDOT, the City of Miami is requesting notification and certification by FDOT as a local zoning authority with authority to control signs within its jurisdictional boundaries. A determination of customary use for size, spacing and lighting, including the hybrid customary use for billboard and wall mural regulation, has been made pursuant to the requirements of the Highway Beautification Act, Federal regulations and the Federal/State Agreement, and these historical criteria have been thoughtfully and comprehensively applied and integrated into the current City ordinance for sign control. The notification of certification from FDOT to FHWA must contain and be subject to a specific condition and reflect the firm commitment by the City, that it will continue to require billboards to comply with the requirements of the Federal/State Agreement and state law. After certification, the City will maintain the existing status quo of regulation with regard to billboards, causing no change which would cause the City to be in non-compliance with criteria in the Federal/State Agreement and state law. This hybrid approach will ensure that Miami complies with the uniform system of standards for billboards which exists throughout the state. The City agrees to assume full responsibility for enforcement of sign violations, and will provide FDOT with timely notification of proposed new sign locations to facilitate FDOT general oversight for "effective control" of outdoor advertising. Thank you for the opportunity to provide this additional information to correct any misunderstandings regarding the customary use criteria in the City of Miami in 1972 and the current regulations. Upon receipt of notification of certification, the City looks forward to continued close cooperation and collaboration with the Florida Depai talent of Transportation.
