See Exhibits A and B. Please allow this letter to serve as the required letter of intent in connection with a request for rezoning of the Property. Description of Property. The Property is located at 3701 Biscayne Boulevard, 3737 Biscayne Boulevard, 306 NE 38th Street, and 316 NE 38th Street in Miami, Florida, and identified by Miami -Dade Tax Folio Nos. 01-3219-019-0230, 01-3219-019-0190, 01- 3219-011-0310, and 01-3219-011-0290, respectively. The Property is approximately 37,392 square feet in size, and located on the southeast corner of the Biscayne Boulevard and NE 38th Street intersection. Currently, the Property contains two (2) structures. The Property is zoned T6-12-L. The Property's future land use is designated on the Future Land Use Map ("FLUM") as General Commercial. The Property is not historically designated, nor within a historic district. Further, the Property is not located within an archeological conservation area. To the west of the Property is a ground level parking lot that is zoned T6-12-0. To the north of the Property is the Biscayne Medical Plaza, including Jackson Health System and Pasha's Restaurant, which is zoned T6-12-L. To the south of the Property is SOUTHEAST FINANCIAL CENTER • 200 SOUTH BISCAYNE BOULEVARD, SUITE 850 • MIAMI, FLORIDA 33131 PHONE. 305.374.5300 • FAX. 305.377.6222 • WWW.BRZONINGLAW.COM Ms. Olga Zamora Chief of Hearing Boards Section July 13, 2015 Page 2 of 4 I-195. The Property is also bordered to the east by the I-195 on -ramp. Further east of the Property are T5-R zoned properties. Request. The Applicant seeks a rezoning of the Property from T6-12-L to T6-12-0 in order to construct a two-story retail structure. The Applicant is requesting the rezoning primarily due to the fact that the building area allowed for commercial use on a T6-12-L property is limited to two (2) stories for the principal building, and office and commercial uses must be less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the building floor area total, whereas said limitation does not apply to T6-12-0 zoned properties. As part of the rezoning application, the Applicant intends to proffer a covenant running with the land requiring that the Property be developed in accordance with the T6-12-L regulations, with the exception of the twenty-five percent (25%) limitation. Section 7.1.2.8(c) of Miami 21 states that a rezoning of land will only be considered where the proposal involves an extension of an existing transect boundary, unless the rezoning involves at least 40,000 square feet of land area or 200 feet of street frontage. The Applicant is requesting an extension of an existing transect boundary for the Property, which has approximately 226 feet of street frontage (excluding a 14 foot alley) on Biscayne Boulevard. As further required by Section 7.1.2.8(c)(1)(d) of Miami 21, the owner of the Property, the Applicant, is applying for the rezoning of said Property. For the analysis pursuant to Article 7, Section 7.1.2.8(c)(2)(g) of Miami 21, please refer to Exhibit C. Criteria. Section 7.1.2.8(f) of Miami 21 provides the criteria for amendments to Miami 21. The provision provides as follows "[f]or all amendments: (a) The relationship of the proposed amendment to the goals, objectives and policies of the Comprehensive Plan, with appropriate consideration as to whether the proposed change will further the goals, objectives and policies of the Comprehensive Plan; the Miami 21 Code; and other city regulations. (b) The need and justification for the proposed change, including changed or changing conditions that make the passage of the proposed change necessary." The proposed amendment is consistent with the goals, objectives and policies of the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan ("MCNP"). For instance, Objective LU-1.3 states as follows: The City will continue to encourage commercial, office and industrial development within existing commercial, office and industrial areas; increase the utilization and enhance the BERCOW RADELL & FERNAN DEZ ZONING, LAN IJ LISE AN0 ENVIRONMENTAL LAW Ms. Olga Zamora Chief of Hearing Boards Section July 13, 2015 Page 3 of 4 physical character and appearance of existing buildings; encourage the development of well -designed, mixed -use neighborhoods that provide for a variety of uses within a walkable area in accordance with neighborhood design and development standards adopted as a result of the amendments to the City's land development regulations and other initiatives; and concentrate new commercial and industrial activity in areas where the capacity of existing public facilities can meet or exceed the minimum standards for Level of Service (LOS) adopted in the Capital Improvement Element (CIE). The Property is located within an area designated on the FLUM as General Commercial. The Applicant requests a rezoning from the T6-12-L transect zone to T6-12-0 in order to enhance the commercial character of the Property and better utilize the already commercially designated area. Thus, approval of this application would encourage commercial development within an existing commercial area. Further, Policy LU-1.3.15 of the MCNP states, "[t]he City will continue to encourage a development pattern that enhances existing neighborhoods by developing a balanced mix of uses including areas for employment, shopping, housing, and recreation in close proximity to each other." To the west, the Property is abutted by properties included in the Miami Design District Retail Street Special Area Plan ("SAP"), which has become a center for retail establishments in the surrounding area. As previously discussed, the Property is also abutted to the east by T5-R zoned residential properties. Thus, approval of this application, which would allow a two- story retail structure, would encourage a development pattern that would enhance the existing neighborhood continuing to develop the balanced mix of uses. The Applicant respectfully requests the rezoning in order to construct a two- story retail use structure. Unlike the T6-12-0 transect zone, T6-12-L limits the building area for commercial use on each lot to two (2) stories of the principal building, and office and commercial uses must be less than twenty five percent (25%) of the building floor area total. The properties to the west of the Property are part of the Miami Design District Retail Street SAP, which was approved by the City Commission on July 26, 2012 through Ordinance 13334. As discussed in said legislation, the area contained underutilized buildings and vacant lots. The Miami Design District SAP set out to facilitate the redevelopment in order to benefit the area by creating residential units, hotel rooms, commercial uses, as well as civic and open space for the enjoyment of the general public. As a result, the area has been economically revitalized and improved. BERCOW RADELL FERNANDEZ ZONING, LAINI0 SE A N ID ENVIRONMENTAL LAW Ms. Olga Zamora Chief of Hearing Boards Section July 13, 2015 Page 4 of 4 As such, the changed and changing conditions make this request necessary in order to best utilize the Property as a retail establishment to further benefit the neighborhood. For rezoning, "[a] change may be made only to the next intensity Transect Zone or by a Special Area Plan, and in a manner which maintains the goals of this Miami 21 Code to preserve Neighborhoods and to provide transitions in intensity and Building Height." See Section 7.1.2.8(f)(2), Miami 21. The Applicant requests a change from T6- 12-L to T6-12-0, which is a request in category of transect zone, not the succeeding intensity transect zone. As explained above, the T6-12-L zone limits the building area for commercial use on each lot to two (2) stories of the principal building, and office and commercial uses must be less than twenty five percent (25%) of the building floor area total, unlike the T6-12-0 transect zone. The Applicant requests the rezoning in order to construct a two-story retail structure. Approval of the Applicant's request would allow for enhanced utilization of the Property within the T6-12 transect zone, not for increased intensity. Therefore, the Applicant's request maintains the goals of Miami 21 to preserve neighborhoods and continue providing for transitions in intensity and building height. Conclusion. We look forward to your prompt review and favorable recommendation. Should you have any questions or concerns regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to phone my direct line at (305) 377-6227.

The properties immediately to the north and west are similarly designated for General Commercial use. Further northwest of the Property are Restricted Commercial and Single Family Residential properties. The properties to the east are designated for Medium Density Multi -Family Residential use. The properties further towards the northeast are designated for Single Family Residential use. The properties to the south are designated for Restricted Commercial use. Further southwest of the Property are some Restricted Commercial and General Commercial properties. The properties to the north of the Property are zoned T6-12-L, T6-8-O, and T3-R. To the northeast of the Property are T4-R and T6-8-O zoned properties. To the east of the property are T5-R zoned properties, and further east are Civic Space zoned properties. The properties to the south are zoned T6-34A-L and T6-36A-O. To the southeast of the Property are T6-24-0, T6-12-L, T5-R, T4-L, T3-R and T3-O zoned properties. To the west of the Property are T6-12-L, T4-O and T3-L zoned properties. To the northwest are T6-12-L, Civic Institution, T5-O, T4-O and T3-L zoned properties. The radius area has recently seen a great amount of revitalization, partly due to the Miami Design District Special Area Plan that abuts the Property to the west. The area has shifted towards mixed -use structures that often incorporate residential and commercial uses. The requested rezoning from T6-12-L to T6-12-0 would allow the Property to be developed without the restriction placed on T6-12-L zoned properties where office and commercial uses are restricted to occupying less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the building floor area total. As the Property is located on a commercial portion of Biscayne Boulevard, an area that permits General Commercial use, the Applicant's proposed retail use is consistent with the surrounding area. Enclosed please find photographs of the properties within a 300 foot radius of the Property. The Applicant is not seeking a land use amendment, nor does the Applicant seek the rezoning for additional height, intensity or density purposes.
