MR. GAUGER: Good evening, again. so, I'm here primarily to answer questions and just to illustrate the proposed areas for this to apply. so this, basically, is a three part ordinance defining gambling, and it's really deferential to the state regulation, anything that is sort of state regulated under MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for item(s) P2.34 on 09/27/2018 City Clerk 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 14 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 existing gambling laws would be applied here, and it's an amendment to the Table of Allowed Uses in 0-1 and T-60 areas. And, then, the exception process is outlined a bit. So, just for your edification, there is the existing T-60 and 0-1 areas. 0-1 in purple, T-6 in red there. This is -- those -- that same -- those same districts in relation to T-3. And then here it is with the additional zoning, keeping the red in the purple. so, these are the areas where it would be technically allowed. But, again, just getting -- sort of getting some of our power back from the state, since the state is currently the only regulating agency. So, this is bringing it back to sort of local control. Any questions? All right. CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: We'll open it up to the public and see what we get. Anyone in the public who would like to come forward on this? Name and address. You have two minutes. MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for item(s) PZ.34 on 09/27/2018 City Clerk 2 3 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 MS. MARRERO-PRIEGUES: Yes. Good evening, Mr. Chairman, Members of the Board. My name is Ines Marrero. I'm an attorney with the law firm of Holland and Knight with offices at 701 Brickell Avenue. And I'm here this evening on behalf of west Fl agl e r Associates and the Havenick family. They are the owners of Magic City casino, and they are really the target of this Ordinance because they have a license that has been in the newspapers for a facility on Biscayne Boulevard. And even though there were some articles about this facility about a year ago, when the State issued the license for a Jai -alai facility for the location, the city immediately ran and started drafting this Ordinance that is before you today. There was a proposal before the city commission at their last meeting before the summer recess where they instructed the city management to draft this ordinance. And in that text of that Ordinance there was some language that has carried forward to what is before you this evening that tries to limit our abilities and our vested rights to move MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for items) PZ.34 ❑n 09/27/2018 City Clerk 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 forward with our proposal. 50, what is before you this evening is, first of all, it is flawed because it tries to create a retroactive application for purposes of our rights. If you read the ordinance there is some language as to putting people on notice, and there is a date that you should pay attention to, July 26, 2018. Today is not. July 26, 2018. Today is September. And they are trying to establish the cut-off date for certain entitlements two months back. In addition, it is illegal. This is a law that purports to be a general application law. we are trying to regulate gambling in the City of Miami. First of all, gambling already exists in the City of Miami. It existed before Miami 21 was adopted. It existed at Flagler Dog Track where it is now Magic City casino, and it existed at Miami Jai Alai . At that time nobody really cared about gambling in the City of Miami because gambling was deemed to be an entertainment facility, and we received a letter from the MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for item(s) P2.34 on 09/27/2018 City Clerk 6 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 City Zoning Administrator saying that entertainment facility, as the city interpreted, including gambling, and it was allowed in all the T-6 designations. Finally, it is a law that only applies to us because there is no other pending gambling facility. If the City adopts this ❑rdinance, the only people that will be coming to ask for this approval will be our -- my client. In the past, and the city has amended the Code many times, as a reaction to uses in the City. For example, I represent a lot of self storage facilities, and I recall the City amending the code because there was a proliferation of them because they were not well designed. There was time to work with staff to see how we could, you know, make sure that -- that the industries, issues were addressed, and finally it was adopted and it applied to all the self storage facilities. That is not the case here. We don't know where the illegal -- where the effects of gambling are, because it's been -- it has been happening for all these years. There is MIAMI—DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for items) PZ.34 on o9/27/zw.8 City Clerk 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 no complaints, nobody has raised an issue. There has been opportunities to amend the code, and nothing has happened. This is totally reactive to the fear of this one facility. CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: Thank you. MS. MARRERO-PRIEGUES: I have two more points, and I will let the other people speak, if I may. one is that there is nobody really here. The complaints in the media about this issue have come from the Downtown Development Authority. The proposed site is not in the DDA. And the other person that you will hear from tonight is the representatives of a very politically powerful property owner in the city of Miami who has car dealerships on Biscayne Boulevard. CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: Thank you. MS. MARRERO-PRIEGUES: Thank you. MR. ALTHABE: I want to -- CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: Yes, sir. MR. ALTHABE: I want to make a disclosure. CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: Go ahead, make MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for iteni(s) P2.34 on 09/27/2018 City Clerk 8 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 your disclosure. MR. ALTHABE: okay. I want to disclose that 1 organized a community meeting. The owner of Magic City Casino was there, and I conducted the meeting. I believe that your opinion is that if I was totally unbiased during the meeting, or 1 was leaning towards one way or the other. I have to say that at this time I have heard everything, including the hearing at the City Commission where this legislation was proposed. And I have an opinion already, which unless there is something really very new, it is never going to change. so, I don't need to recuse myself because 1 don't have any personal, or financial, or any other kind of interest. 1 just want to say that 1 don't find this legislation unreasonable because obviously gaming in a residential neighborhood would bring a big change to the neighborhood. And that should be -- and it's not unreasonable to ask for special majority in public hearings. But I'm not going to participate in the MIAMI-DA©E COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for item(s) PZ.34 on 09/27/2018 City Clerk 9 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 vote because I believe that probably it would be interpreted as, like, I heard opinions that form my own opinion. overwhelming opinion in the neighborhood was against. But I was surprised that people wrote to me supporting the casinos. So, I rather don't participate in the vote. CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: Madam attorney, are you comfortable with that disclosure and outcome? State. MS. CITY ATTORNEY: Yes. So, you're recusing yourself pursuant to your interest in this? Okay. Okay. CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: we still have quorum? Three, four, five, yes, we are good. MS. CITY ATTORNEY: Yes, we still have quorum. CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: Yes, ma'am. MS. NELSON: Hi. Sue Nelson, 1900 North Bayshore Drive, Miami, 33132. I attended that community meeting, and I can tell you the temperature in the room was hot. This is a neighborhood, I'm sure you've all gone up Biscayne Boulevard between 29th and 31st Street. It has become s❑ dense and there is MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for item(s) PZ.34 on 09/Z7/2018 City Clerk 2 3 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 traffic issues, there is development that is just out of control. 1 am President of my Tower Association condominium. 1 can tell you people have come up to me and they are shocked. They are shocked to learn that the casino is going to go in our neighborhood. I've talked to even the Police Department and they are telling me the repercussions of this kind of establishment that comes into a neighborhood. And this is an established neighborhood. And 1 defy all of you, you live in Miami, you can imagine a casino, even though they are telling me it's not a casino, there is gambling, period, that would come into your neighborhood, and the kind of people that would come to this facility and partake, whether it is to gamble, whether it is to have a beverage or whatever. I'm definitely opposed to this. The 4/5 vote 1 don't even think is strong enough. I think it should be a unanimous vote by the Commission in order to get anything like this in anyone's neighborhood. so, please do what you think is best, but to me this gambling should not even be in any residential MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for item(s) PZ.34 on 09/27/2018 City Clerk 11 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 neighborhood. Thank you. CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: Thank you. MR. PRIEGUEZ: Good evening. My name is Manny Priegues, and I live at 4000 Malaga Avenue, Miami, Florida 33133. I am also here on behalf of the Havenick family, and the Magic City Casino. And I wanted to impress on some of the points that my colleague, Ines, made a few minutes ago, and going to little bit more detail. I think that it is really, really important that you keep in mind and bear in mind that in 2012 we sought an opinion from the city of Miami reference the definition of Adult -- excuse me, not adult, pardon me, of entertainment facility. It's not an adult facility. Entertainment facility. And whether that included, you know, jai -alai fronton, where it included, you know, gambling in general, et cetera. And that opinion came back in the positive It was considered by them as including -- including that definition. so, that was back in 201. so, at that point the city has to know that something is going on, or that somebody MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for item(s) PZ.34 on 09/27/2018 City Clerk 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 is researching this for a purpose, particularly if it's coming from representatives of the Magic City Casino. The same thing occurred in earlier this year, in 2018, where I, myself, extended a request of the zoning Administrator for 19 different locations that were also trying to make sure that they were zoned according to entertainment facility, and that that would include -- and it was consistent with the earlier opinion that we had obtained from the previous Zoning Director in 2012. And we got the same exact result. This was in January of 2018. okay. Now, let's be very honest with ourselves. These things, these important decisions, and these zoning verification letters are not done in a vacuum. okay. The zoning Administrator doesn't, you know, go into a closet and figure out for himself. These things are vetted amongst many different professionals in the city of Miami, and this, in fact, was, and the exact same result came back. It wasn't only until after we obtained MIAMI—DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for item(s) PZ.34 on 09/27/2018 City Clerk 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 19 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 our permit from the State of Florida, because of the zoning verification letters, because of these letters, that an article was produced by the Miami Herald that got certain folks in the community very rowelled up and very engaged, the aforementioned. CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: In conclusion. MR. PRIEGUEZ: And, 5o, I just want to make sure that you feel the fact that this is being directed at this one company that did everything correctly up until the point that they were able to obtain that permit from the state of Florida, and what's going on right now i5 nothing more and nothing less than the City of Miami pulling the rug from under them, after they went by doing the right thing. CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: Thank you. MR. PRIEGUEZ: Thank you very much. CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: Yes, sir. MR. EHRLICH: Good evening. Peter Ehrlich, 395 Northeast 59th Street, speaking on PZAB No. 7, this item. I support the comments from Sue Nelson, who spoke earlier, and I also support the MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for item(s) P2.34 on 09/27/2018 City Clerk 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 recommendation from the Planning Department that you approve the proposed legislation. Thank you very much. CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: Thank you. Anyone else? MR. HELFMAN: very briefly. I think it's important -- Steve Helfman, 2525 Ponce de Leon Boulevard. I think it's important that we look at that map where this use can occur. This is not targeted to any particular person. This use can occur throughout the City of Miami. You can see that red corridor. All this Ordinance says, that if you want to have this use, if you want gambling use, you have to have a hearing. There is nothing that is really exceptional about that. You have hearings every single day for very minor things. And, so, the fact that the city Commission is suggesting that they would like to have a hearing before a gambling establishment is put in a neighborhood is certainly good policy, it's good for the quality of life in this community, and it MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for items) PZ.34 on 09/27/2018 City Clerk 15 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 will give everybody a chance to have their day. And if the use that they want is a good use, then they'll get it. And the community will support them and the commission will support them. And if not, they won't. Thank you. CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: Thank you. MR. HAVENICK: Hi. Izzy Havenick, 401 Northwest 38th Court, Miami, Florida 33126. My family has owned and operated the Magic City casino, formally the Flagler Dog Track since 1952. we have never done anything in the City that was not permitted in the city, was a secret, everything we've ever done has been known. This has been a six -year process that everybody who is complaining has known about, everybody in the City has known about. I'm going to set the record straight. This is not a gambling facility. It is a Jai -alai fronton and has the potential to become a poker room also, neither of which are considered gambling, because neither is a game of chance, both are games of skill. MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for items) PZ.34 on 09/27/2018 City Clerk 16 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 I have voluntarily agreed and offered to Commissioner Russell and to the entire Commission, that we would not put in slot machines. I was told I would be included in the drafting of this language. I was not. This is clearly targeting my family and no one else. If there was such a big problem with gambling, where were these men ten years ago when they bought the Omni. Other than selling it to them, they were nowhere to be found. If these people really wanted to end gambling, they would have done it ten years ago. They wouldn't have done it now. And they would have made this so that this was language that actually covered everything, not just our project. And that's it. I mean, the facts are, this is poker and Jai -alai only, and nothing more. Thank you very much. CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: Thank you. Anyone else? Anyone else? seeing none, I'll bring it back to the board. MR. GERSTEN: A couple of questions. Okay. There are three parts. If you could. one, the dates of the zoning MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for item(s) PZ.34 on 09/27/2018 City Clerk 17 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 verification letters. MR. GAUGER: Yes. MR. GERSTEN: Can you just repeat those? MR. GAUGER: Can I repeat them? MR. GERSTEN: There were two or there was one? MR. GAUGER: I don't have the text in front of me. Let me -- MR. GERSTEN: Or anyone. It really doesn't matter. MR. GAUGER: No. There are no dates listed in the Ordinance. MR. GERSTEN: No, no, not the Ordinance. MR. GAUGER: Sorry. MR. GERSTEN: were there not zoning verification letters? Did I -- MR. GAUGER: I know -- I know of the first one. I'm not -- MR. GERSTEN: Mr. Chair, can I ask anyone who can answer? MR. GAUGER: I'm sorry, I misunderstood the question. MR. HAVENICK: There Was a letter from Barnabe Min in 2012, I believe it was June of 2012. And then in January of this year we MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for item(s) PZ.34 on 09/27/2018 City Clerk 18 2 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 got 19 letters from the Zoning Department. Not one, not two, 19, saying that we were allowed to do this. MR. GERSTEN: Thank you. Okay. so, under the ordinance you listed that there were three substantial parts to the ordinance. One was about gambling definition. MR. GAUGER: Definition of gambling facilities, or other facilities regulated by Chapters 550 and 551, and section 849 of Florida statutes. MR. GERSTEN: Okay. What is the current definition of gambling in the city of Miami? MR. GAUGER: There isn't specifically in the zone. MR. GERSTEN: By the state, then. It's a state definition? MR. GAUGER: Correct, yes. MR. GERSTEN: Okay. Tangentially to Mr. Havenick's comments about Jai -alai and poker, it is my understanding, and this is I now heard it from someone, I always understood that poker was not a game of chance, that it was a game of skill, and that MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for item(s) PZ.34 on 0912712018 City Clerk 19 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 things like slot machines, or what we have commonly throughout the City illegally, maquinitas, are games of chance, you have no idea, right. And that Jai -alai additionally was a sport, there's wagering on the sport, but that it is a game of skill. so, now, what you are proposing to define gambling as in the city of Miami, would that be then folding Jai -alai and poker into that? MR. GAUGER: Because we defer to the State rule, and those are regulated by the State -- MR. GERSTEN: Regulated? MR. GAUGER: Yes. So, they fall under that -- they fall under Chapter -- I'm not sure which of the three sections of the state Code Jai -alai and poker fall under directly, if it's 550, 551 or 849, I would have to do some additional research on which one of those it is, but it falls under that. MR. GERSTEN: Okay. More on that. MR. GAUGER: on that specific question, card rooms fall under 849 Florida statutes. And that Chapter also requires, by the way, MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for item(s) PZ.34 on 09/27/2018 City Clerk 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 that before any license for a card room is issued by the State, there must be a vote of the City Commission. That same requirement is not repeated in our Code -- in the Miami code. But it's already required in the State Statute, which is to say, this is, you know, the concerns about this affecting businesses, the existing businesses, is much to do about nothing because state law already requires that the Commission vote. MR. GERSTEN: Our Commission, in the City of Miami -- MR. GAUGER: Our Commission. MR. GERSTEN: -- must vote as to whether you can be granted a card room. MR. GAUGER: Correct. MR. GERSTEN: But the Jai -alai fronton MR. GAUGER: Correct. MR. GERSTEN: -- no or yes? MR. GAUGER: I'm not aware of the requirements. But for the card room requirements, yes. MR. GERSTEN: ❑kay. Part two, the existing, or at least MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for item(s) PZ.34 on 09/27/2018 City Clerk 21 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 based on the zoning verification letters, from both -- two different administrations, allowed for the Jai -alai fronton and a card room. And these are -- this falls under the term pari-mutuel. Does that also include off-track betting? okay. And, so, what now the city is asking for is to say that what regarding D-1 and T-60, what's going to change? MR. GAUGER: So, what primarily is changing is, this is a separate -- this is separated from other entertainment uses That's why we are creating this separate definition. MR. GERSTEN: I understand. Because previously, or as it exists now, these types of uses would fall under entertainment. MR. GAUGER: The zoning interpretation letters said they were just typical entertainment uses. The first one -- if I'm not mistaken, the first was a zoning interpretation in 2012; is that correct? And then the letters were verification letters. MR. GERSTEN: I think, yes. we may or MIAMI--DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for item(s) P2.34 on 09/27/2018 City Clerk 22 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 may not, but I'm going to take those as generally zoning letters that tell a developer what they can and cannot do, something to rely on. That may be litigated in the future. But to me, from where I'm sitting right now hearing that, 1 mean, it sounds like 1 would be putting my opinions ❑n those letters. So, part three, what then -- I don't understand. so, what's part three, then, to the -- you said that you were -- it was a three-part change -- changes that you were seeking. MR. GAUGER: Changing the definition. MR. GERSTEN: Right. MR. GAUGER: Changing -- I mean, it is contained within the table MR. GERSTEN: Yeah. MR. GAUGER: changing where they're specifically allowed, and then the process for that allowance. MR. GERSTEN: Right. And the process, talk about the process now versus the process later, or if approved, just further to clarify. MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC.

GAUGER: This is by exception, which goes to Commission. MR. GERSTEN: Currently? MR. GAUGER: No. Currently entertainment uses are allowed by right. MR. GERSTEN: Right. okay. So, you guys would like to turn this into an exception process? That's what you are asking for? MR. GAUGER: Yes, yes. MR. GERSTEN: Classic exception, going to PZAB, two readings. MR. GAUGER: Correct. MR. GERSTEN: Where I was going to go with this, I don't see anything unreasonable about what you're asking for. That's not the issue, though. The issue here is, like, this is the City, in my opinion, at its worst because you have great public policy, but you have -- you have this reliance. You have a very narrow use.

It is an extremely valuable lesson, but 1 think it puts the city in a strange place, and it looks untoward, and for all the great arguments and public policy reasons, you can say there shouldn't be a Jai -alai fronton or a poker room, which, frankly, with all the other problems the City has, it would be the least of our problems. I think when you talk about people that would go to something like this, 1 certainly see it as more of an entertainment type of thing. 1 just -- 1 couldn't -- 1 couldn't -- 1 would support the public policy. 1 think it's a great policy.

GARAVAGLIA: So, let me ask a question. why are you here? Has the City said you can't do something, or that they were about to say something that you can't do? MR. HAVENICK: The city is asking you to bless a Resolution that they would like to pass to retroactively take away the rights that they have given me CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: So, you're pursuing your project? MR. HAVENICK: we have been granted the permit by the State of Florida, and we are going in for permits, and all of that stuff, to build the project. CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: You haven't been told no, you're just worried. MR. HAVENICK: well, if this passes -- CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: Then you're in trouble. Right now you haven't been told by the City to stop work, or stop thinking about this. MR. HAVENICK: Well, I think it pretty much says it there that I'm going to be put MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC.

So, why is this retroactive? why can't it just not be retroactive? MR. HAVENICK: Because we are the only ones that can do this. CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: I'm asking the City. why retroactive? MR. GAUGER: why retroactive to July, 2018? CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: And not just start out now, like most legislation that comes before us? MR. GAUGER: I mean, I think because this needs to apply to the most recent -- the only instance where the State sort of went beyond local Ordinances, you know, this is basically a preemption from the State. MR. GERSTEN: Except no ordinance currently exists. I mean, that's sort of -- that is factually the case. I mean, we've all -- the questions have been asked, you guys have even said, nothing exists, so we want to now put it into place, even though these guys have been granted their right, MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC.

GARAVAGLIA: So, if we were to indefinitely continue this item, they could go and do their project, because they couldn't get this ordinance -- couldn't get i t past this Board. MR.

GARAVAGLIA: We can stall it right here and they could go on and build. MR. GERSTEN: This is an exception. MR. GAUGER: No, this is not an exception, it's a text amendment. CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: It has to pass through this Board. You can't jump over us because you don't like us, correct? we can stall it right here and let them build. MR. HECHTMAN: MR.

I'm not exactly sure on the procedure, and would defer to the attorney if it was indefinitely. CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: To me, I would be inclined to approve it, if it didn't have the back date. MR. GAUGER: The retroactive date. CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: Yeah. I think it's a reasonable thing to say, let's go a little extra step and talk t❑ the community when these kind of things come in. UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: How did you arrive at the July 26th date? MR. GAUGER: That's the date when the state preempted local authority. MR. GERSTEN: It preempts local authority when local authority hasn't exerted itself or created a framework to preempt. That's the part I'm not -- CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: Mr. Collins, go ahead. MR. COLLINS: I would like to hear what he has to say, just about the date. MR. HELFMAN: That date is the date that the City Commission passed our Resolution MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for item(s) pZ.34 on 09/27/2018 City Clerk 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 17 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 instructing the administration to bring forward this proposed ordinance. It's from that date forward that they are saying, anybody who is pursuing a gambling facility needs to know that as of that date they go forward at their own risk because the rules may change, and so that's what that date is. The other thing is, you obviously know this stuff very well, because -- well, you certainly sound like you do. So, what you didn't mention about those letters is that those letters have a caveat at the end of all of them that says that this zoning verification letter is allowed today, when they were issued, and they specifically say that the City Code and City zoning Code may change, and you're proceeding at your own risk. so, the idea that somehow they have these letters which allow them to build this facility is fictitious. They don't have such letters. They have a letter which says, this letter is good for today. And if the City changes the rules, but 1 think that's important, because you clearly are relying MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC.

GARAVAGLIA: All right. I think we got it. Mr. collins, does that conclude your comments? Mr. Dominguez? MR. COLLINS: I have one more question. Going back to a comment you had -- you said that the Jai -alai and the poker is not gambling. was that -- were you stating that as a non use of gambling under the Florida requirements, State of Florida Statutes that were referenced here? MR. HAVENICK: By definition those are not considered games of chance, they are considered games of skill. MR. COLLINS: okay. So, if you meet that definition that you're not a gambling facility and their Code Requirement references the State Statutes, why would you have to ---- why would you fall into this category? MR. HAVENICK: Because it specifically references the chapter that pertains to pari MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for item(s) PZ.34 on 09/27/2018 City Clerk 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 mutuel wagering, which is chapter 550. And, real quick, the state -- the letters were not for us, they were for the State. And the State issued the permit in reliance on the zoning letters from the city. MR. GAUGER: Just to be clear, though, gambling and games of chance are not necessarily related. You can gamble on a skill. MR. COLLINS: Right, I understand. I have no more questions. MR. DOMINGUEZ: I have a question. As a businessman, how much have you invested thus far, in this particular journey that you're on? MR. HAVENICK: Just over a million dollars s❑ far. MR. DOMINGUEZ: So, I mean, from a -- I agree with him. From a fairness standpoint, for the city to come in and change the rules, the game has already begun. It doesn't seem very fair to me, specifically when somebody throws down that kind of cash and that kind of money, and I think it sends a bad message to any businessman that does business in the MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for item(s) P2.34 on 09/27/2018 City Clerk 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 City of Miami where the rules could change in the middle of the game. So, I'm inclined to -- I don't have a problem with your with your -- I just -- I don't feel -- I feel like the City is changing the rules as it goes along. 1 think the fact that it's retroactive is a knee-jerk reaction aimed at the gentleman's venture. I don't see a reason why -- why it wouldn't -- why it would have to be retroactive. CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: You said that you got some letters this year. MR. HAVENICK: Yes. CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: This year when, like January, February, March? MR. HAVENICK: January. CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: So, I know it has these asterisks on the bottom, but January is not that long ago, and in development terms, and getting financing, that's, to me, a pretty current letter that I would rely on to get my financing, or whatever else that I need. It's not like -- if you said that the case was predicated on a letter that you got five years ago, yeah, MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC.

But, you have current letters, in my minds, All right. MR. HAVENICK: You want to see the letters? CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: No. You're representing -- MR. MILIAN: To me, the only thing that -- and I understand, I kind of see the rock and the hard place here, but at the same time there is no one that, in my opinion, they are not denying anybody, this can still go to commission and still can perfectly pass. And it's not, in my opinion, it's a City --wide ordinance. I know everyone is kind of pigeon holding and saying it's because of this one particular project, and it may very well be they are the only ones applying for it at this point, but to me this is a city-wide ordinance that goes to everyone, and it applies to everyone. So, I'm -- I understand the concern. 1 mean, you know, the July -- I agree if it would have just been retroactive, I agree that shouldn't be the case, but if there is a MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC.

DOMINGUEZ: My final statement would be that if it wasn't -- if it didn't seem as they were being targeted, i could understand the city's point of view. But in this particular case, I do believe Commissioner Russell that in the aid of Norman Braman, they are targeting Magic City casino; if not, they would have come up with this Resolution years ago. And i just don't see how -- right now, right after the article came out in the Herald, all of sudden, you know, we are here MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC.

MR. GERSTEN: I just want to be clear that I'm not basing -- CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: Sir, Mr. Gersten -- Mr. Gersten, you had your opportunity. MR. DOMINGUEZ: This is my thought. If the gentleman spent the amount of money he spent, and he has been receiving letters that it is okay, by definition, I just don't see how in the middle of the ballgame the city can just say, "Hey, look, no, pursue at your own risk." I don't think it's fair. And I don't think -- whether it is gambling or any other type of business, I don't think it's fair. 50, I just want to put that on the record. CHAIRMAN MR. GARAVAGLIA: I wish the city had -- when the storage facilities were coming before us you would have said, "we can make this retroactive from the previous year," and stopped what we got. Because I remember being at these meetings and you MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for item(s) PZ.34 on 09/27/2018 City Clerk 37 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 said, or the staff said, "we can't go back to the other units that have already gotten through the door." so, I think you're cherry picking some of your retroactivity. So, I don't -- Mr. Dominguez, if you want to proffer a motion? Or Mr. Collins, go ahead. MR. COLLINS: Just one question. You have -- you have already submitted your building permits, you're in the middle of permitting; is that correct? MR. HAVENICK: we started going in and applying for some permits, yes, sir. MR. COLLINS: 50, if we were to approve this with the removal of the -- of the retroactive date, and that it just gets adopted whenever it gets through the second reading at City Commission, and if they have already started on their permitting, process are they kind of grandfathered in because they would have already applied? MR. GAUGER: I believe the only way they have any grandfathered rights is if they have approved rights, and so that can be either MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC.

MR. COLLINS: Is that administrative or is that in code? MR. GAUGER: That's for -- that's actually for -- that's not necessarily for the use, that's for the structure, or for the zoning. MR. COLLINS: I'm just brainstorming a timelime. If we move this -- vote to approve this, removing the retroactive date, are they in a race to get their permits before this gets adopted, or are they in a safe position because they would have already started permitting? MS. CITY ATTORNEY: It would depend on -- I believe it would depend on what types of permits they need, when they applied, et cetera. 50, it's difficult to answer that question, because we don't know exactly what permits they need, what they applied for, what they haven't applied for, and when the actual ordinance would be adopted. It's difficult to answer that. MR. COLLINS: I remember, back to the MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC. (305) 373-5600 Submitted into the public record for item(s) PZ.34 on 09/27/2018 City Clerk 39 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 storage discussion, this will take effect when it's adopted, and whatever projects are in the cue, even though they are not permitted, they apply before the Ordinance happened, and they were fine. So, I would think that this is a similar path, but you're not sure which permit would, in a sense, grandfather them into at least the system? MS. CITY ATTORNEY: Yeah. I'm not sure exactly what permits they need, and whether they applied for them, and, if not, when they will apply for them, and the timeline of when the actual Ordinance would be effective and the natural route of it. So, it's difficult to determine that. don't know if the applicant has any information regarding their permits that they need, et cetera, and their timeline on it. MR. GERSTEN: Mr. Chair, I have -- with your permission, I have a follow-up question to Mr. Collins' question, for the City on the same topic. And I ask this to everyone. Is this threshold in the Code, or is it administrative rule that you guys have on a piece of paper that changes from MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC.

GAUGER: vested rights are by Code and by Statute, I believe. MS. CITY ATTORNEY: I'm sorry, can you repeat that? MR. GERSTEN: All right. So --- MR. GAUGER: Your question is vesting of rights? MR. GERSTEN: Yes. well, anyone can answer this, if there is a basis of law. when these issues have been litigated, do the rights exist based on an administrative ruling, or piece of paper that has changed from administration to administration, or is this strictly a code -based threshold? I just -- does everyone understand my question? I'm sorry, I know I'm not clear. MR. HELFMAN: You're making sense. It's neither. MR. GERSTEN: Microphone. MR. HELFMAN: Steve Helfman again. The issue of whether you have a grandfather right is not by virtue of the Code, or any administration, or an opinion. It's as a matter of law. Local government MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC.

I know it sounds unfair, but they can change the rules whenever they like. If somebody has relied upon something and expended a substantial amount of money and obtained permits which, by the way, according to the city's own computers, no permits have been applied for here, so I don't know what they are talking about. But, that said, that said, if they -- there is no retroactivity here. There is nothing in this Ordinance that says that retroactivity -- it's not retroactive, okay. It will become effective on the day that the city commission passes it. And if they have certain protected rights on that date, he will have them so, if you wanted to change it, you couldn't. In other words, there is no retroactivity in it. The only provision that is in there, it just says, people should be on notice that as of this date we are changing the rules. But the ordinance only becomes effective on the date that it gets passed by the City commission. so, there is no retroactivity. MIAMI-DADE COUNTY COURT REPORTERS, INC.

I simply want to clarify something that Mr. Helfman man has said incorrectly. people can -- reasonable people can disagree. The City does not have a provision in its Code for zoning in progress ordinances. If they had what others cities have, then this would be a permissible act, and you wouldn't hear us arguing about fairness. And to Mr. Helfman's point, he is mistaken. Multiple permits have been applied for, and at least one has been issued, in hand, in our possession. so, he might have something that tells him something different, we've got an actual physical permit.
