RE: Acknowledgement of Local Control of Wall Murals within the City of Miami
Dear Mr. Martinez:
This correspondence is notification that the Florida Department of Transportation (Department)
acknowledges the City of Miami's (City) determination of customary local use for Wall Murals
within specified boundaries under the City's jurisdiction as detailed in Exhibit "A" as attached to
this letter, in lieu of controls established in the Agreement between the United States Department
of Transportation and the State of Florida, dated January 27, 1972.
On May 10, 2008, the City passed Ordinance No. 12983, creating Sections 62-601 through 62-
618, Permitting and Regulating Wall Murals, of the Code of the City of Miami, Florida, as
amended (the Wall Mural Ordinance). The City has represented to the Department that the intent
of the Wall Mural Ordinance is to: 1) improve the appearance of the City's urban core; 2)
document that prominent displays of large outdoor advertising displays, including Wall Murals,
in the City's commercial and industrial urban core was a widespread, common and general
practice, and a customary use beginning prior to 1972; 3) establish standards for size, lighting,
and spacing of Wall Murals; and 4) establish penalties for violations and processes for
enforcement.
The City's certification is supported by numerous documents, including but not limited to: 1)
City Ordinance 12983 (adopted 2008); 2) City Ordinance 7338 (adopted 1965); 3) an inventory
dated (updated to reflect conditions as of date of signature) of Wall Murals currently permitted
under Ordinance 12983; and 4) the Agreement on Customary Use and Certification for Local
Zoning Control for Murals Under the Highway Beautification Act by the City of Miami, the
Florida Department of Transportation, and the Federal Highway Administration, Florida
Division, all of which are attached and incorporated into this letter of agreement.
Further, the City agrees to the following:
1. The City must apply and enforce the provisions of Ordinance No. 12983 (the Wall
Mural Ordinance). The size and lighting of all Wall Murals must adhere, at a minimum,
to the requirements of the Wall Mural Ordinance. The City will not grant a permit, or
renew a permit seeking to enlarge or modify a Wall Mural, without first securing
Department approval. The City may grant modifications to an existing permit, if the
modifications meet the criteria set forth in the Wall Mural Ordinance. Any variances to
the Wall Mural Ordinance will be subject to the Department's approval.
2. Provisions of the Wall Mural Ordinance may be amended from time to time in a manner
consistent with "customary use". Any proposed changes to the Wall Mural Ordinance
will be subject to a review by the Department for consistency with the demonstrated
"customary use" and the intent of the Highway Beautification Act. The Department will
review and raise any objections to proposed amendments within thirty (30) days of
submittal. The City will not amend the Wall Mural Ordinance, or adopt additional codes
or ordinances related to the control of Wall Murals, without the approval of the
Department. Department approval will not be unduly delayed and shall not be
arbitrarily withheld,
3. Issuance of new Wall Mural permits must meet minimum size, .height and spacing
requirements contained in the Agreement on Customary Use and Certification for Local
Zoning Control for Murals under the Highway Beautification Act between the City of
Miami, the Florida Department of Transportation, and the Federal Highway
Administration, Florida Division. All other applicable local government codes and
ordinance must be met prior to issuance of a permit for a Wall Mural.
4. Wall Murals previously approved by the City that are not in compliance with the land
use requirements in Section 479.156, Florida Statutes, shall be allowed to remain for the
duration of any existing lease with the property owner; not to exceed ten years. At the
end of the lease term, or ten years from the date of this agreement, whichever is earlier,
Wall Murals not located in a commercial or industrial zoned area, must be relocated, or
the permit will be revoked. Wall Murals for which permits are revoked must be
removed within thirty (30) days of the revocation, at the expense of the Wall Mural
permittee. The City will permit new Wall Murals only in commercial or industrial
zoned areas.
5. The City will be subject to periodic inspections by the Department to ensure the City is
controlling the display of Wall Murals in accordance with its ordinance The City's
failure to correct any deficiencies identified by the Department within a reasonable
period of time shall be cause for termination of this certification, and the cause for
removal of wall murals by the City.
6. If the Federal Government reduces transportation funding which would otherwise be
apportioned to Florida due to the City's failure to control Wall Murals and the City's
failure to cure any deficiencies identified by the Department, the Department may
reduce State apportioned transportation funding in an equivalent amount to the City.
7. To the extent permitted by Florida law, the City of Miami shall indemnify, defend and
hold harmless the Department, its officers and employees, from liabilities, damages,
losses, and costs, including, but not limited to, attorney's fees, resulting in any manner
from the determination of customary use for local control of Wall Murals under the
Highway Beautification Act or the certification for local control regarding Wall Murals.
8. The City shall annually certify to the Department that 50% of the gross revenue related
to the permitting and regulation of Wall Murals, permitted subsequent to this
Agreement, have been deposited monthly in an account that will be used solely for
improvements, construction, and maintenance on the State Highway System within the
City of Miami. The certification statement is due to the Department no later than ninety
(90) days following the City's fiscal year end. The Department reserves the right to
audit the City's records pertaining to this account and the use of deposited funds.
9. If any part, term, or provision of this agreement is held to be invalid or in conflict with
any law of the State of Florida, the remainder shall not be affected. In such instance, the
remainder would continue to conform to the terms and requirements of applicable law.
In summary, the Department acknowledges the certification of the City for control of Wall
Murals under the above terms and conditions, consistent with the effective control requirements
of the Highway Beautification Act, federal and state regulations, and the federal/state agreement.
Acknowledgement of the City's control of outdoor advertising based on customary local use is
limited to Wall Murals. No other type of signage is included in the City's certification.
Sincerely,
Ananth Prasad, P.E.

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
We have reviewed the Federal Highway Administration ("FHWA") letter of June 17,
2011 ("FHWA Letter"), to -the Florida Department 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 Federal/State 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 Permit.")
Furthermore, if the size folulula 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) Spacing
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.
Cl 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.
❑ 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.
Cl 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

In light of the infouiiation 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 requixe
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 Department of Transportation.

Attention.: John Garner, Director, Office of Right of Way
Re: Certification of the City of Miami for Local Control of Wall Murals
Dear Secretary Prasad:
Thank you for your letter of October 14, 2010, requesting our acknowledgment of the Florida
Department of Transportation's (FDOT) proposed certification of the City of Miami (City) for
local control of wall murals, subject to the conditions outlined in your letter. We appreciate
FDOT and the City providing us with the historical information which was considered in our
• assessment. We believe the City's current ordinance for the proposed control of outdoor
advertising for size, spacing, and lighting of wall murals is not in conformance to the Highway -
Beautification Act (HBA). Therefore, we recommend against delegating control to the City until
certain issues are addressed.
In Reply Refer To:
HDA-FL
•
A local zoning authority, pursuant to 23 U.S.C. § 131(d), can establish standards for the size,
lighting, and spacing of outdoor advertising displays that are customarily followed within its area
of control. In accordance with 23 CFR 750,706, FDOT may delegate control of outdoor
advertising signs to local zoning authorities having appropriate controls to govern size, spacing,
and lighting. The City of Miami qualifies as a local zoning authority.
We do not consider the City's proposed controls of wall murals used for outdoor advertising to
be in conformance with the intent of the HBA and our longstanding implementing regulations.
The control of wall murals with respect to size, spacing, and lighting cannot occur in isolation
from the other signs, displays, or devices regulated by the HBA in the controlled area. Under
23 CFR 750.706(c)(1), the local zoning authority is supposed to regulate the size, lighting, and
spacing of all outdoor advertising signs in commercial and industrial zones. A wall mural is only
one type of sign, display, or device as defined in 23 CFR 750.703(i). The contrbl of spacing
between murals and all other types of outdoor advertising signs needs to be considered
comprehensively. The submittal did not clearly articulate how effective control would be
comprehensively addressed.
Ananth Prasad, P.E.
June, 17, 2011
In addition, although we agree that wall murals were in use in Miami prior to the January 1972
Federal -State agreement, we do not believe the 2008 ordinance is consistent with a determination
of customary use, which can help establish the basis for a local zoning authority to have more or
less restrictive controls than those in the Federal -State agreement. The key adjective
"customary" is not defined in the HBA, but a typical definition of the word is found in the
Webster's New World College Dictionary 4`h edition: "in keepingwithcustom, or usage; usual;
habitual." An ordinance is evidence that a particular use was permissible when the ordinance
was in effect. However, if it is determined that no such uses existed or were extremely limited,
the City may not declare that based on formula calculation the use was customary, with no
support. Miami apparently did have an ordinance in effect in 1972 that, based on a formula
calculation, allowed some oversized signs on buildings. The submitted documentation
demonstrated that some oversized murals may have existed in Miami prior to the Federal -State
agreement, but in such few numbers that it cannot be said that such use was customary.
The determination of customary use for Miami wall murals allows a variance from the
Federal -State agreement, but the City cannot revise its outdoor advertising controls arbitrarily
over time if the revision is based upon unsupported customary use prior to the 1972
Federal -State agreement. The selection of 10,000 square feet as a maximum size for each mural
location appears to be arbitrary. The City's 1965 ordinance had inherent size limitations based
on a formula calculation with respect to the dimensions of a given building. Some buildings
precluded the ability for a painted mural to be 10,000 square feet in size, while undoubtedly
other buildiegs had dimensions that allowed this size mural. We believe maintaining the formula
calculation for size provided in the 1965 ordinance could be an appropriate basis for a
determination of customary use; we do not see a logical basis for selecting 10,000 square feet as
the maximum. Even with using the formula calculation, it needs to be shown that the use of
such oversized murals was customary.
Regarding the control of spacing between signs, we have already stated that the spacing of
murals needs to be considered in the context of spacing between murals and all other outdoor
advertising. Although we agree with the City that its 2008 ordinance is more restrictive than its
1965 ordinance that did not address spacing (e.g., allowed multiple murals on a single building),
there is no customary use determination here. Without a valid determination of customary use
on which to base its 2008 ordinance, and considering that murals currently are not controlled
with respect to spacing among all outdoor advertising, we believe the Federal -State agreement's
spacing criteria would control.
For the delegation of local control to the City of Miami, we believe the City would need to
1) work jointly with EDOT to ensure all outdoor advertising devices are controlled for size,
spacing, and lighting, and not just wall murals as a stand-alone category; 2) restate its ordinance
to the formula method for controlling size that was used in its 1965 ordinance; and 3) adhere to
the spacing 'criteria in the Federal -State agreement. The FDOT should conduct a review of any
existing wall murals currently located along controlled routes to ensure they are permitted in
accordance with the Federal -State agreement for size, spacing, and lighting. As you indicated in
your letter, FDOT ultimately remains responsible for the effective control of outdoor advertising
throughout the State, even if delegated to a local zoning authority such as the City of Miami.
