WHEREAS, the revitalization of SAP Area is consistent with the City's vision to foster
vibrant entrepreneurial and pedestrian -oriented communities that will attract residents, visitors

entertainment, art and culture, education, wellness and other creative enterprises to be known as
the Magic City Innovation District; and
WHEREAS, the current underutilized status of the SAP Property is inconsistent with the

WHEREAS, Chapter 163, Sections 163.3220-163.3243, Florida Statutes (2018), "The
Florida Local Government Development Agreement Act", as amended from time to time,
authorizes and provides for local governments to enter into development agreements with any

and
WHEREAS, as a condition to the City's final approval of the SAP, the Developer and
the City must enter into and record a development agreement pursuant to Section 3.9.1.f of
Miami 21; and
WHEREAS, the lack of certainty in the development approval process can result in a
waste of economic and land resources, discourage sound capital improvement planning and
financing, escalate the cost of housing and development, and discourage commitment to
comprehensive planning; and
WHEREAS, assurance to the Developer that it may proceed in accordance with existing
laws and policies, subject to the conditions of a development agreement, strengthens the public

this Agreement.

claims it may have in response to the Developer's foregoing right to challenge any
subsequently adopted changes to land development regulations.

pursuant to the processes and in accordance with the design requirements set forth in the
Regulating Plan and Concept Book attached hereto, although the City and the Developer
agree that the Concept Book shall serve as an illustrative guiding document and the City
shall not withhold development approvals for the SAP Area if otherwise in substantial
compliance with the guidelines and processes of the SAP. The criteria to be used in
determining whether future development shall be approved is the proposed
development's consistency with the Comprehensive Plan, this Agreement and the SAP.

developed by multiple parties in one (1) or more phases over the life of the Project.

MAGIC CITY INNOVATION DISTRICT SAP
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
12. Environmental. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the City and the Developer agree
that the Developer shall comply with the requirements and general intent of Chapter 17 of
the City Code, by performing tree replacement as follows below. The City finds that the
Project will confer a significant net improvement upon the publicly accessible tree
canopy in the area, and will include the preservation of a significant portion of the
existing tree canopy in the area through a combination of tree relocation within the SAP
Area and the planting of new trees along street frontages and in Public Open Spaces as
depicted in the Concept Book.
(a) Off -site replacement trees. Notwithstanding the requirements of Section 17-6(e)
of the City Code, where tree replacement within the SAP Area is not possible
(including within the SAP Area's Public Open Spaces and Civic Space Types),
the Developer may enter into an agreement with the City to perform tree
replacement on public property in the following order of priority: (i) within a one
(1) mile radius of the SAP Area; or (ii) within any City park subject to approval
by the City. The City further agrees aid in the facilitation of the permitting and
planting of replacement trees on all public rights -of -way within the SAP Area,
within a one (1) mile radius of the SAP Area and within City parks. The
Developer does hereby agree to water, trim, root, prune, brace, nourish or
undertake any other necessary maintenance of the trees it plants, as may be
required by the terms of this Agreement or by the Resilience and Public Works
Department (or its successor), or the City Arborist for the Term of this
Agreement. The Developer further agrees to warrant each off -site replacement
tree for one (1) year after the date of installation. The Developer shall be
responsible for the adequate maintenance and care of these trees for the term of
this Agreement and shall obtain any applicable permits.
(b) SAP Area tree installation, maintenance and guarantee. For all trees placed
within the SAP Area, the Developer shall install any needed irrigation and
corresponding water meters to support the growth and viability of the trees
located within the right-of-way. The Developer shall agree to water, trim, root,
prune, brace or undertake any other necessary maintenance as may be required for
trees located within the SAP Area for the term of this Agreement. The Developer
further agrees to warrant each SAP Area tree for the Term of this Agreement after
installation. A tree removal permit shall be required for all removal, relocation
and mitigation of trees within the SAP Area.
(c) Tree installation. The Developer shall install trees opportunistically within the
public right-of-way, subject to approval by the appropriate City department.
(d) Staff Arborist Review. Tree installation and tree maintenance plans shall be
administratively reviewed and approved by a City staff arborist.
13. Construction of Encroachments in Public Rights -of -Way. The City finds that any
existing pedestrian -related encroachments in the public right-of-way which the Developer
plans to retain as well as the SAP -related pedestrian -related encroachments proposed by
the Developer in the public right-of-way (e.g., a pedestrian overpass over the proposed
12
MAGIC CITY INNOVATION DISTRICT SAP
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
modifications to NE 4th Avenue), as illustrated in the Concept Book, do not unduly
restrict the use of the public right-of-way and are an essential element in the construction
of the Public Open Spaces and Civic Spaces to be included in the SAP Area. The
adoption of this Agreement shall serve to satisfy the requirements of Section 55-14(b) of
the City Code. Further, notwithstanding the requirements of Section 55-14(c) of the City
Code, the City agrees to waive any and all claims to payment of a user fee in connection
with the construction or maintenance/retention, as applicable, of the aforementioned
encroachments proposed by the SAP within the public rights -of -way and the use of the
same for both vehicular and pedestrian travel and parking, as applicable.
This Agreement shall also satisfy the requirements of Section 55-14(d) of the City Code.
In consideration for authorization the construction or maintenance/retention, as
applicable, of the aforementioned encroachments, the Developer further covenants to:
1. Maintain the proposed pedestrian overpass and any other proposed
encroachment in accordance with the Florida Building Code and the City
Charter and City Code.
2. Restore or remove the encroachment within thirty (30) days of written notice
by the director of the Department of Resilience and Public Works (or its
successor) to properly maintain, restore or remove the overpass or other
encroachment, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the City agrees
that it shall not unreasonably order the removal of any such encroachment so
long as the Developer properly maintains and/or restores the encroachment.
3. In the event of a failure of the Developer to restore, maintain or remove the
overpass or other encroachment in accordance with the preceding subsection,
when notified, the City Manager may contract for the restoration, maintenance
or removal of the overpass or other encroachment, and place a special
assessment lien against the Developer's Abutting (as defined in Miami 21)
private property for the unpaid cost of the restoration, maintenance or removal.
These unpaid costs and expenses incurred by the City or its agents shall
constitute special assessment liens against the Abutting private real property of
the Developer, and until fully paid and discharged, or barred by law, shall
remain liens equal in rank and dignity with liens of the City and County ad
valorem taxes and superior in rank and dignity to all other liens,
encumbrances, titles and claims in, to or against the real property involved.
Such fees shall become delinquent if not fully paid within sixty (60) days after
their due date. The total outstanding balance of delinquent fees and related
charges shall bear an interest charge of one percent (1%) per month. Unpaid
and delinquent fees, together with accrued interest, shall remain and constitute
special assessment liens against the Developer's Abutting real property
involved which is deriving a benefit. Such special assessment liens for the
repair, maintenance, removal or restoration costs and interest may be enforced
by any of the methods provided in Chapter 85, Florida Statutes, or in the
alternative, foreclosure proceedings may be instituted and prosecuted under the
13
MAGIC CITY INNOVATION DISTRICT SAP
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
provisions of Chapter 173, Florida Statutes, or the collection and enforcement
of payment thereof may be accomplished by any other method authorized by
law. The Developer shall pay all costs of collection, including reasonable
attorney's fees, court costs and abstracting and related lien expenses.
4. Provide an insurance policy, in an amount determined by the City's Risk
Manager, naming the City as an additional insured for public liability and
property damage. The insurance shall remain in effect for as long as the
encroachment(s) exist within the right-of-way. Should the Developer fail to
continuously provide the insurance coverage, the City shall have the right to
secure similar insurance policy in its name and place a special assessment lien
against the owner's abutting private property for the total cost of the premium.
5. The Developer shall hold harmless and indemnify the City, its officials and
employees from any claims for damage or loss to property and injury to
persons of any nature whatsoever arising out of the use, construction,
maintenance or removal of the pedestrian overpass or any other encroachment
and from and against any claims which may arise out of the granting of
permission for the encroachment(s) or any activity performed under the terms
of this Agreement.
14. Street Closure and Vacation. A critical element to the success of the SAP Area's
Public Open Space and Civic Space is the modification and re-routing of NE 4th Avenue
as illustrated in the Concept Book. In accordance with Chapters 54 and 55 of the City
Code, the Developer intends to seek the approval of the vacation and closure of public
rights -of -way for the purpose of being incorporated into the SAP Area and effectuating
the proposed modifications to NE 4th Avenue, including the following: (i) NE 4th

of the existing structure in its current place pursuant to a formal renovation and
reconstruction plan, or (ii) by relocating and reconstructing portions of the existing
structure out of the current NE 2nd Avenue zoned right-of-way, in either case in
accordance with the final binding direction Developer obtains from the City and the
County, as applicable. In exchange for the Developer's obligation under this Section 15,
the City agrees that, if reasonably necessary for the Developer's preservation of the
historic DuPuis Medical Office & Drugstore building, the structure shall be entitled to
remain encroaching into the current NE 2nd Avenue zoned right-of-way (subject to any
required County approval(s) of the same). The Developer further agrees to complete the
preservation of the DuPuis Medical Office & Drugstore building, and to obtain a
Temporary Certificate of Occupancy or Certificate of Occupancy for the same, pursuant
to either subsection (i) or (ii), above, within ten (10) years of the date on which the City

Miami 21, as applicable; paving and hardscape improvements; right-of-way
improvements (e.g., the proposed rerouting of NE 4th Ave. and the extension of NE 3rd
Ave.); streetscape improvements, including without limitation, benches, street lighting,
wayfinding signs, trash receptacles and planters, the design of which shall be approved
25
MAGIC CITY INNOVATION DISTRICT SAP
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
by the Planning Department prior to the issuance of a building permit for the SAP; and
general thoroughfare and streetscape improvements. The proposed right-of-way
improvements described herein and as shown in the Concept Book are subject to
approval by the City's Planning and Resilience and Public Works Departments (or their
successors), and to the extent applicable for any rights -of -way under County maintenance
jurisdiction, corresponding approval by the County's Transportation and Public Works
Department.
(a) For every three hundred (300) linear feet of uninterrupted street frontage within
the SAP Area, the Developer shall provide a minimum of one (1) cross -block
Pedestrian Passage. A cross -block Pedestrian Passage shall be required only
where (i) three hundred (300) linear feet of street frontage are uninterrupted by a
right-of-way, drop-off point or similar pedestrian -oriented design feature and (ii)
the Pedestrian Passage will result in a pedestrian connection between either (x)
two (2) public rights -of -way or (y) a public right-of-way and the Promenade du
Grand Bois. Where a Pedestrian Passage is required, the Developer shall have
reasonable flexibility in the design, configuration and location of the Pedestrian
Passage within the applicable frontage area. A Pedestrian Passage may be roofed
above the first floor for one hundred percent (100%) of its length, but any roofed
portion shall not count towards minimum Open Space requirements under the
Regulating Plan.
(b) The Developer shall also include dedicated bicycle lanes within and directly
abutting the SAP Area as shown on Sheet 38 of the Concept Book. Such bicycle
lanes may be created as painted or colored bicycle lanes only, and shall not be
required to be protected or segregated bicycle lanes, in the Developer's discretion.
(c) Attached at Exhibit "FI" is a list of proposed roadway improvements required for
the SAP development which have been accepted by the City pursuant to the
Traffic Sufficiency Letter also enclosed at Exhibit "FI". Subject to obtaining
required right-of-way, development and construction approvals from the City and
County, as applicable, and also subject to the City's subdivision process and
related subdivision improvements requirements pursuant to Chapter 55 of the City
Code (as modified in this Agreement), the Developer agrees that the enumerated
roadway improvements shall be constructed in accordance with the phasing
schedule set forth on Exhibit "FI".
18. Valet Parking. The Developer intends to establish a uniform valet system to service the
SAP Area generally. Notwithstanding Sections 35-305 and 35-306 of the City Code, as
amended, multiple valet permits may be issued for the operation of a valet parking area
immediately adjacent to or on the same side of the block of an existing valet parking area
within the SAP Area where the permit applicant is the operator of the uniform valet
system.
19. Parking Management Program. Parking within the SAP Area (including required
parking under the Existing Zoning) shall be implemented and counted through a pooled
26
MAGIC CITY INNOVATION DISTRICT SAP
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
centralized parking management program. The parking management program shall track
existing and anticipated parking through an interactive spreadsheet maintained by the
Developer and reviewed by the Planning Director before issuance of each vertical
building permit for the project (the "Parking Management Program"). Parking usage
shall be debited from the total parking pool available within the SAP Area. Parking
availability shall be added to the total parking pool available within the SAP Area. Off-
street parking requirements under Miami 21 and the Regulating Plan for development
within the SAP Area may be satisfied by available spaces within the SAP Area through
the Parking Management Program. The Parking Management Program shall incorporate
the parking plans set forth in the Regulating Plan and the Concept Book. The numbers
and figures provided in the Parking Management Program may be revised and updated
accordingly from time to time by the Planning Director including at such times as certain
interim parking is discontinued and permanent parking becomes available.
(a) Interim Parking. For purposes of accommodating the phased development of the
project as well as extra parking needed for special events (as approved under this
Agreement and the City Code, as applicable), interim and temporary parking on
conditionally, unimproved and partially improved lots shall be permitted in order
to satisfy required parking under Miami 21 and the Regulating Plan.
Notwithstanding the requirements of Sections 62-543 and 62-544 of the City
Code, such interim parking shall be permitted within the SAP Area without
having to comply with permanent parking requirements on the interim lots
identified by the Developer at the time a lot is proposed to be used for interim
parking, subject to approval of each lot by the Planning Director (which shall not
be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). The Planning Director shall
also approve the design of each interim parking lot prior to issuance of a building
permit for improvements thereon. Interim parking may also include valet parking
service.
(b) Permanent Parking. The Developer shall construct permanent parking facilities to
serve each phase of development within the SAP Area in an amount which shall
provide a sufficient number of permanent parking spaces to satisfy the off-street
parking requirements under Miami 21 and the Regulating Plan for each new
Development constructed within the SAP Area, as each phase of the SAP is
constructed (the "Permanent Parking Facilities"). The Planning Director shall
assess the Parking Management Program every five (5) years for permanent
parking availability. Permanent Parking Facilities may consist of centralized
parking facilities and/or structure parking facilities as accessory and/or principal
uses.
20. SAP Transportation Trust Fund Contribution. No payments to the City (including
the Little Haiti Community Revitalization Trust) nor to any other person made pursuant
to this Agreement shall be subject to the City's Transportation Trust Fund, as established
in Chapter 35, Article VII of the City Code.
27
MAGIC CITY INNOVATION DISTRICT SAP
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
In addition, and notwithstanding the foregoing, any parking facilities surcharge collected
by the City for parking in public parking facilities located within the SAP Area pursuant
to the City of Miami Parking Facilities Surcharge Ordinance, Chapter 35, Article X of the
City Code, shall be allocated to the City's Transportation Trust Fund (the "SAP
Transportation Trust Fund Contribution"). All funds collected through the SAP
Transportation Trust Fund Contribution shall be reserved in the City's Transportation
Trust Fund for the creation, operation and/or maintenance of mass transit and other
transportation facilities within the SAP Area, including, but not limited to the City's
trolley system and capital or acquisition costs associated with the proposed development
of a passenger/commuter rail station abutting the SAP Area serving the Little Haiti
community (including the SAP). These funds may be carried over to the succeeding
fiscal year. Expenditures in connection with the SAP Transportation Trust Fund
Contribution shall be made pursuant to Sections 35-253 and 35-254(d) of the City Code.
21. Alcoholic Beverage Sales; Retail Specialty Center Designation. Except as otherwise
set forth in or modified by this Section 21, alcoholic beverage sales within the SAP Area
shall be governed by Chapter 4 of the City Code. Pursuant to Chapter 4 of the City Code,
two (2) retail specialty centers are hereby designated for properties located within the
SAP Area as follows:
1. The West Zone Retail Specialty Center shall consist of all properties
within the Le Marche DuPuis and Les Bureaux SAP Campus Zones, and
the properties within the Les Residences SAP Campus Zone located west
of the centerline of NE 3rd Avenue as shown in the Concept Book.
2. The East Zone Retail Specialty Center shall consist of all properties within
the Les Ateliers SAP Campus Zone and the properties within the Les
Residences SAP Campus Zone located east of the centerline of NE 3rd
Avenue as shown in the Concept Book.
The maximum number of Alcohol Service Establishments (as defined in Miami 21)
permitted within the SAP Area shall not exceed five (5) per retail specialty center, for a
total of ten (10), with three (3) Alcohol Service Establishments permitted as of the
Effective Date and one (1) additional Alcohol Service Establishment permitted on each
anniversary of the Effective Date up to ten (10) in total. Such ten (10) Alcohol Service
Establishments are exclusive of (i) Food Service Establishments (as defined in Miami 21)
where the sale of alcoholic beverages is entirely incidental to and in conjunction with the
principal sale of food (e.g., bona fide, licensed restaurants or cafes operating with a 2-
COP, 4-COP, SFS or equivalent license) and (ii) other establishments with an alcoholic
beverage license which are otherwise exempt from distance separation requirements
under Section 4-4 of the City Code (e.g., bona fide, licensed hotels operating with a 4-
COP S or equivalent license).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Chapter 4 of the City Code
(including Sections 4-4 and 4-7 thereof) or in Miami 21, the City and the Developer
hereby acknowledge and agree that, within the SAP Area, (i) Alcohol Service
28
MAGIC CITY INNOVATION DISTRICT SAP
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
Establishments, (ii) Food Service Establishments and (iii) other establishments with an
alcoholic beverage license which are not otherwise exempt from distance separation
requirements under Section 4-4 of the City Code shall each be permitted By Right (as
defined in Miami 21), in accordance with Article 4, Table 3 and Article 6, Table 13 of the
Regulating Plan, and shall not require any specific administrative or public hearing
approval (i.e., no Warrant or Exception under Miami 21 or Chapter 4 of the City Code)
for the commencement or continuation of such establishment or use. In addition, all
restrictions contained in Chapter 4 of the City Code or in Miami 21 relating to the
maximum number or location of Alcohol Service Establishments, including without
limitation, required distances from churches, residential districts, schools and other
Alcohol Service Establishments, whether within or outside the SAP Area, shall not be
applicable to any Alcohol Service Establishment within the SAP Area.
In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Chapter 4 of the City
Code (including Section 4-3 thereof), the City and the Developer hereby further agree
that the permissible operating hours for alcohol sales at Alcohol Service Establishments
and Food Service Establishments within the SAP Area shall be as follows: (i) for
consumption on the premises, Monday — Sunday between the hours of 11:00 a.m. — 3:00
a.m., but with one (1) Alcohol Service Establishment eligible to operate between the
hours of 11:00 a.m. — 5:00 a.m.; provided, however, an extension of operations to 5:00am
for additional Alcohol Service Establishments may be permitted by Exception granted by
the City's Planning, Zoning and Appeals Board; and (ii) for consumption off the
premises, Monday — Saturday between the hours of 9:00 a.m. — 12:00 a.m. and Sunday
between the hours of 9:00 a.m. — 7:00 p.m. (with permissible operating hours
automatically extended until 10:00 p.m. on Sundays during the month of December).
22. Miami Trolley. The Developer acknowledges that the City may extend its trolley system
further into Little Haiti and that this expansion may traverse or abut the SAP Area. The
Developer agrees to cooperate with the City so that any portion of the trolley route which
runs through or is immediately adjacent to the SAP Area can be reasonably
accommodated within the dedicated public rights -of -way. The City agrees that, in the
event the trolley system will traverse or immediately abut the SAP Area, the City will
allow one (1) or more trolley stops within and/or immediately abutting the SAP Area, in
full cooperation with the Developer as to the number and location of any such stops.
Trolley stops located within and/or directly abutting the SAP Area shall be furnished and
maintained by the Developer in a manner approved by the Planning Department;
provided, however, the Developer shall not be required to furnish or maintain any trolley
stop in a manner materially different or more substantial than trolley stops furnished or
maintained by the City. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for any trolley stop located
within or directly abutting the SAP Area, the Developer shall furnish and maintain each
such trolley stop with a bus shelter and bench of a type and style as selected by the
Developer in its discretion (subject to City and County approval, as applicable), provided
that each bus shelter and bench is of a size, type and quality meeting at least the
minimum standards generally utilized by the City and/or County in bus shelters and bus
shelter benches.
29
MAGIC CITY INNOVATION DISTRICT SAP
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
23. Personal Wireless Service Facilities (PWSF). The City and the Developer agree that
the City shall approve, at a minimum, at least one (1) Personal Wireless Service Facility
(PWSF) (as defined in Miami 21) antenna, monopole or tower to be located within the
SAP Area, on a rooftop or as a standalone monopole or tower; provided that such PWSF
shall comply with all requirements under, and be formally approved by the City in
accordance with, the standards set forth in the Regulating Plan and Miami 21, as
applicable.
24. Temporary Uses; Temporary Use Permits.
(a) Except as otherwise set forth herein, temporary uses within the SAP Area shall be
generally permitted in accordance with the requirements of Chapter 62 of the City
Code.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, permits for temporary uses on vacant land within
the SAP Area, issued under Section 62-535 of the City Code, shall be issued in
accordance with the following:
1. Such permits shall have a duration of five (5) years with two (2)
administrative extensions of one (1) year each available to the Developer,
which extension shall be granted by the Planning Director and shall not be
unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, for a total of seven (7)
years for any such permit.
2. The Developer may utilize off -site parking to satisfy the required off-street
parking generated by a site plan submitted to the City for a permit for
temporary uses on vacant land, provided that such off -site parking is
located within 1,500 feet of the area covered by the site plan and is on land
owned or leased by the Developer.
(c) The City and the Developer agree that an active permit for temporary uses on
vacant land for any portion of the SAP Area issued to the Developer pursuant to
Chapter 62 of the City Code (as modified by this Agreement) may continue in
force and effect during the course of Development of the SAP under the terms it
was issued (or under modified or amended terms mutually agreed upon by the
City and the Developer); provided that when the Developer seeks to commence
construction of any phase of the SAP on any parcel (or portion thereof) included
in such temporary use permit, the Developer shall submit to the City a revised site
plan for the temporary use permit excluding the parcels (or portions thereof)
which shall no longer be included in the permit for temporary uses on vacant land.
The City shall expeditiously approve the amended site plan (and shall not
unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its approval), provided that the
remaining parcels (and any portions thereof) and amended proposed uses, if any,
within such temporary use permit shall continue to satisfy all applicable
temporary use, zoning, building code and life safety requirements.
30
MAGIC CITY INNOVATION DISTRICT SAP
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
25. Temporary/Special Events. For all temporary events (as defined at Section 62-521 of
the City Code) and special events (as defined at Section 54-1 of the City Code), the
Developer, or its designee, shall submit a temporary and/or special event application, as
applicable, for review to the appropriate City department and the Neighborhood
Enhancement Team (NET) office servicing the SAP Area no less than ten (10) business
days prior to the date of the event. The City hereby agrees to prioritize, and diligently
and in an expedited procedure complete, its review of the application to ensure
coordination of needed City services and avoid possible adverse impacts of the event.
26. City Impact Fees. As the City impact fees for development within the SAP Area
become due pursuant to Chapter 13 of the City Code, the Developer shall pay said
amounts to the City to be used as follows, in lieu of impact fees pursuant to Chapter 13 of
the City Code. The Developer shall not be responsible for any payments above the
amounts that would otherwise have been paid in City impact fees under Chapter 13 of the
City Code, and all payments made under this Section 26 shall be credited towards any
applicable City impact fee requirements.
(a) Up to Eight Million and 00/100 Dollars ($8,000,000.00) of such funds shall be

(c) For any platting commenced within the SAP Area which is required to effectuate
the Development of the SAP, there shall be no time limit for the Developer to
begin or complete any required subdivision improvements corresponding to the
plat following final plat approval by the City Commission. Further,
notwithstanding Section 55-10(b) of the City Code (which shall continue to
apply within the SAP Area unless otherwise modified herein), prior to the
completion of subdivision improvements within the plat, the Developer may (i)
obtain a temporary or permanent certificate of use and/or occupancy for the
Adaptive Use of an existing building or other habitable structure located within
the plat, and (ii) continue to operate permitted activities and uses approved by the
City under an active permit for the temporary use of vacant land pursuant to
Chapter 62 of the City Code.
28. Compliance with Fire/Life Safety Laws; Demolition of Unpermitted Portion of 365

(a) The Developer shall at all times in the development and operation of the Project
comply with all applicable laws, ordinances and regulations including, without
limitation, life safety codes to insure the safety of all SAP Area and City residents

and regulations.
(b) Subject to the issuance of any required demolition permit, the Developer shall,

32
MAGIC CITY INNOVATION DISTRICT SAP
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
0730) to be demolished in accordance with applicable demolition regulations.
Provided the Developer has diligently and in good faith applied for all such
required demolition permit(s), the Developer shall not be held liable or in breach
of this Agreement if the City or any other governmental authority has failed to
issue any required demolition permit with reasonably sufficient time for the
Developer to cause the demolition to be completed within such ninety (90) day
period.
29. Formation of Community Development District. In the event the creation of a
Community Development District ("CDD") is approved for the Project, the CDD may
assume the Developer's responsibility under this Agreement without the City's approval
("Assumption"). Notice of the Assumption, including copies of the executed documents
memorializing the Assumption, shall be provided to the City pursuant to the notice
provisions of this Agreement.
30. Local Development Permits. The development of the SAP in accordance with the
Existing Zoning is contemplated by the Developer, and may require additional permits or
approvals from the City, County, State or Federal governments or any division thereof.
Subject to required legal processes and approvals, the City shall make a good faith effort
to take all reasonable steps to cooperate with and facilitate all such City approvals, and to
aid in facilitating all other approvals. Such permits and approvals may include, without

In the event that the City substantially modifies its land development regulations
regarding site plan approval procedures, authority to approve any site plan for a project
within the SAP Area shall be vested solely in the City Manager, with the
recommendation of the Planning Director. Any such site plan shall be approved if it
meets the requirements and criteria of the Existing Zoning, the Comprehensive Plan and
the terms of this Agreement.
31. Necessity of Complying with Regulations Relative to Development Permits. The
Developer and the City agree that the failure of this Agreement to address a particular
permit, condition, fee, term, license or restriction in effect on the Effective Date shall not
relieve the Developer of the necessity of complying with the regulation governing said
permitting requirements, conditions, fees, terms, licenses or restrictions. Pursuant to
Section 163.3241, Florida Statutes (2018), if State or Federal laws are enacted after the
execution of this Agreement which are applicable to and preclude the parties' compliance
with its terms, this Agreement shall be modified or revoked as is necessary to comply
with the relevant State or Federal laws.
32. Consistency with Comprehensive Plan; Public Facilities. The City finds that
development of the SAP Area as proposed by the SAP is in conformity with the Existing
Zoning and is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. As of the Effective Date, the

the SAP Area and the Project. In the event that the Existing Zoning and/or the
Comprehensive Plan requires the Developer to provide additional Public Facilities to
address any deficiencies in officially required levels of service occasioned by future
development within the SAP Area or as a result of the development of the Project, the
Developer will provide such Public Facilities consistent with the timing requirements of
Section 163.3180, Florida Statutes (2018), or as otherwise required by Chapter 13 of the
34
MAGIC CITY INNOVATION DISTRICT SAP
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
City Code, if applicable. In each such case, the Developer shall be bound by the City
impact fees and assessments in existence as of the Effective Date of this Agreement.
33. Cooperation; Expedited Permitting; Time is of the Essence. The Parties agree to
cooperate with each other to the full extent practicable pursuant to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement. The Parties agree that time is of the essence in all aspects
of their respective and mutual responsibilities under this Agreement. The City agrees to
use its best efforts to expedite the permitting and approval processes applicable to
development within the SAP Area in an effort to assist the Developer in achieving its
development and construction milestones. To such end, the City shall accommodate
requests from the Developer's general contractor and subcontractors for review of phased
or multiple permitting packages, such as those for excavation, site work and foundations,
building shell, core and interiors. In addition, the City shall designate an individual
within the City Manager's office who will have a primary (though not exclusive) duty to
serve as the City's point of contact and liaison with the Developer in order to facilitate
expediting the processing and issuance of all permit and license applications and
approvals across all the various departments and offices of the City which have the
authority or right to review and approve all applications for such permits and licenses
required for development within the SAP Area. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the City
shall not be obligated to issue any Development Permit to the extent the Developer does
not comply with the applicable requirements of the Existing Zoning, the Comprehensive
Plan, this Agreement or applicable building codes or regulations.
34. Reservation of Development Rights.
(a) For the term of this Agreement, the City hereby agrees that it shall permit the
development of the SAP Property in accordance with the Existing Zoning, the
Comprehensive Plan and this Agreement.
(b) Nothing herein shall prohibit an increase in the density or intensity of
development permitted on the SAP Property in a manner consistent with (i) the
Existing Zoning and/or the Comprehensive Plan, (ii) any zoning change
subsequently requested or initiated by the Developer in accordance with the
provisions of applicable law or (iii) any zoning change subsequently enacted by
the City.
(c) The expiration or termination of this Agreement shall not be considered a waiver
of, or limitation upon, the rights, including without limitation, any claims of
vested rights or equitable estoppel, obtained or held by the Developer or its
successors, grantees, heirs or assigns to continued development of the SAP
Property in conformity with the Existing Zoning and all current and prior active
and approved development permits or development orders granted by the City
under the Existing Zoning.
35. Annual Report and Review.
35
MAGIC CITY INNOVATION DISTRICT SAP
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
(a) This Agreement shall be reviewed by the City annually on the anniversary of the
Effective Date. The Developer, or its representative or agent, shall submit an
annual report to the City for review at least thirty (30) days prior to the annual
review date. The annual report shall contain a section by section description of
the Developer's compliance with its obligations under this Agreement. Any
information required of the Developer to be included in the annual report shall be
limited to that information necessary for the City to reasonably determine the
extent to which the Developer has complied or is proceeding in good faith to
comply, as applicable, with the terms of this Agreement. The Developer's
obligation to submit an annual report shall cease as of the date on which this
Agreement is terminated pursuant to any such term or provision herein.
(b) If the City finds in the annual report, on the basis of competent substantial
evidence, that the Developer has failed to comply with any of its obligations
under this Agreement, the City may take action to terminate or amend this
Agreement as set forth in this subsection. The City shall provide the Developer
with written notice of its intent to terminate or amend the Agreement, and such
notice shall state the reasons for the termination or amendment. Upon receipt of
such written notice, the Developer shall have thirty (30) days to cure the default,
or such longer period of time as may reasonably be necessary to cure the default if
it is of such nature that cannot be cured within thirty (30) days; provided,
however, that the Developer commences action to cure the default within thirty
(30) days and diligently pursues the cure thereafter. Should the Developer fail to
cure within the aforementioned periods, as applicable, the City may terminate or
amend this Agreement by holding two (2) public hearings before the City
Commission to consider and deliberate regarding such termination or amendment.
36. Notices. All notices, demands and requests which may or are required to be given
hereunder shall, except as otherwise expressly provided, be in writing and delivered by
personal service or sent by United States Registered or Certified Mail, return receipt
requested, postage prepaid, or by overnight express delivery, such as Federal Express, to

37. Joinder.
(a) If, subsequent to the Effective Date, the Developer (or its successors, grantees,
heirs or assigns) seeks to incorporate additional Abutting (as defined in Miami 21)
property into the SAP, such additional property shall also be incorporated into this
Agreement, subjecting it to the rights and obligations established hereunder;
provided, that the Developer shall obtain all required City approvals to
incorporate such additional property into the SAP (including review and
recommendation by the City's Planning, Zoning and Appeals Board and approval
by the City Commission), and shall either (i) amend this Agreement in accordance
with the provisions hereof to include such additional property, or (ii) execute and

in accordance with the terms hereof.
(b) The Parties agree that any property which is incorporated into this Agreement
subsequent to the Effective Date in accordance with this provision shall be subject
to the Existing Zoning, the Comprehensive Plan and the general terms of the SAP
and this Agreement. In the event that the City does not afford any subsequently
incorporated property with the protections of the Existing Zoning, the
Comprehensive Plan and the terms of the SAP and this Agreement, the City will
be deemed to have breached this Agreement.
(c) Nothing herein shall prohibit the Developer from objecting to any City policy that
would not afford a subsequently incorporated property into the SAP Area and this
Agreement with the protections of the Existing Zoning, the Comprehensive Plan
and the terms of the SAP and this Agreement, as applicable.
38. Authorization to Withhold Permits and Inspections. In the event the Developer is
obligated to make payments or improvements under the terms of this Agreement or to
take or refrain from taking any other action under this Agreement, and such obligations
are not performed as required, in addition to any other remedies available, the City is
hereby authorized to withhold any further Development Permits, and refuse any
inspections or grant any development approvals until such time as this Agreement is fully
complied with.
39. Exclusive Venue; Choice of Law; Specific Performance. It is mutually understood and
agreed by the Parties that this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of
Florida, and any applicable Federal law, both as to interpretation and performance, and
that any action at law, suit in equity or judicial proceedings for the enforcement of this
Agreement or any provision hereof shall be instituted only in the courts of the State of
Florida or Federal courts, and venue for any such actions shall lie exclusively in a court
of competent jurisdiction in the County. In addition to any other legal rights and
remedies under applicable law, the City and the Developer shall each have the right to
specific performance of this Agreement in court. Each Party shall bear its own attorney's
fees. Each Party waives any defense, whether asserted by motion or pleading, that the
aforementioned courts are an improper or inconvenient venue. Moreover, the Parties
consent to the personal jurisdiction of the aforementioned courts and irrevocably waive
any objections to said jurisdiction. The Parties irrevocably waive any rights to a jury
trial.
40. Voluntary Compliance. The Parties agree that in the event all or any part of this
Agreement is struck down by judicial proceedings or preempted by legislative action, the
Parties shall continue to honor the terms and conditions of this Agreement to the extent
allowed by law.
41. No Oral Change or Termination. This Agreement and the exhibits and attachments
appended hereto and incorporated by reference constitute the entire agreement between
38
MAGIC CITY INNOVATION DISTRICT SAP
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement supersedes any
prior agreements or understandings between the Parties with respect to the subject matter
hereof. No change, modification or discharge hereof in whole or in part shall be effective
unless such change, modification or discharge is in writing and signed by the Party
against whom enforcement of the change, modification or discharge is sought (and, if
applicable, after such change, modification or discharge is effected in compliance with
Section 53 of this Agreement). This Agreement cannot be changed or terminated orally.
42. Compliance with Applicable Law. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, throughout the term of this Agreement, the Developer and the City hall
comply with all applicable Federal, State and local laws, rules, regulations, codes,
ordinances, resolutions, administrative orders, permits, policies and procedures and
orders that govern or relate to the respective Parties' obligations and performance under
this Agreement, all as they may be amended from time to time.
43. Representations. Each Party represents to the other(s) that this Agreement has been
duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Party and constitutes the legal, valid and
binding obligation of such Party, enforceable in accordance with its terms.
44. No Exclusive Remedies. No remedy or election given by any provision in this
Agreement shall be deemed exclusive unless expressly so indicated. Wherever possible,
the remedies granted hereunder upon a default of the other Party shall be cumulative and
in addition to all other remedies at law or equity arising from such event of default,
except where otherwise expressly provided.
45. Events of Default.
(a) The Developer shall be in default under this Agreement if the Developer fails to
perform or breaches any term(s), covenant(s) or condition(s) of this Agreement,
which breach is not cured within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice
from the City specifying the nature of such breach; provided, however, that if
such breach cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days, then the
Developer shall not be in default if it commences to cure such breach within said
thirty (30) day period and diligently prosecutes such cure to completion.
(b) The City shall be in default under this Agreement if the City fails to perform or
breaches any term(s), covenant(s) or condition(s) of this Agreement and such
failure is not cured within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from the
Developer specifying the nature of such breach; provided, however, that if such
breach cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days, the City shall not be in
default if it commences to cure such breach within said thirty (30) day period and
diligently prosecutes such cure to completion.
(c) It shall not be a default under this Agreement if any Party is declared bankrupt by
a court of competent jurisdiction. All rights and obligations in this Agreement
39
MAGIC CITY INNOVATION DISTRICT SAP
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
shall survive such bankruptcy of any Party. The Parties hereby forfeit any right to
terminate this Agreement upon the bankruptcy of a Party.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything contained in this Agreement to the
contrary, and provided the SAP as a whole remains in compliance with the
minimum requirements of Article 3.9 of Miami 21, (i) a default by any
successor(s), grantee(s), heir(s) or assign(s) of the Developer of any portion of
this Agreement shall not be deemed to be a breach by (A) the Developer, or (B)
any other successor, grantee, heir or assignee of the Developer; and (ii) a default
by the Developer under this Agreement shall not be deemed to be a breach by any
successor(s) grantee(s), heir(s) or assignee(s) of the Developer of their respective
rights, duties or obligations under this Agreement. For purposes of clarity, the
Project may be developed by multiple parties in multiple phases. Any actual or
alleged default by a developer of a portion(s) or phase(s) of the Project, including
without limitation the Developer, shall not cause, nor be treated, deemed, or
construed as a default by another developer or Party with respect to any other
portion(s), phase(s) or component(s) of the Project.
46. Remedies Upon Default.
(a) Neither Party may terminate this Agreement upon the default by another Party,
except as expressly otherwise provided herein including at Section 35(b), but shall
have all of the remedies enumerated herein.
(b) Upon the occurrence of a default by a Party to this Agreement not cured within
the applicable grace period, the Developer and the City agree that any Party may
seek specific performance of this Agreement, and that seeking specific
performance shall not waive any right of such Party to also seek monetary
damages, injunctive relief or any other relief available under applicable law other
than termination of this Agreement.
47. Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any
person or circumstance shall, to any extent, hereafter be determined by a court or other
legal authority of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Agreement or the application of such term or provision to persons or circumstances
other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable shall not be affected
thereby and shall continue in full force and effect.
48. Assignment and Transfer. This Agreement shall be binding on the Developer and its
heirs, grantees, successors and assigns, including the successor to or assignee of any
Property Interest. The Developer, in its sole discretion, may assign, in whole or in part,
this Agreement or any of its rights and obligations hereunder, or may extend the benefits
of this Agreement, to any holder of a Property Interest without the prior written consent
or any other approval of the City. The Developer shall provide written notice of any such
assignment to the City in accordance with the requirements of Section 36. Any such
assignee shall in writing in a legal form acceptable to the City Attorney, assume all
40
MAGIC CITY INNOVATION DISTRICT SAP
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
applicable rights and obligations under this Agreement, and upon such assumption, the
assigning Party shall be released from all obligations assumed by such assignee.
49. Obligations Surviving Termination Hereof. Notwithstanding and prevailing over any
contrary term or provision contained herein, in the event of any lawful termination of this
Agreement, the following obligations shall survive such termination and continue in full
force and effect until the expiration of a one (1) year term following the earlier of the
effective date of such termination or the expiration of the Term: (i) the exclusive venue
and choice of law provisions contained herein; (ii) rights of any Party arising during or
attributable to the period prior to expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement; and
(iii) any other term or provision herein which expressly indicates either that it survives
the termination or expiration hereof or is or may be applicable or effective beyond the
expiration or permitted early termination hereof.
50. Lack of Agency Relationship. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as
establishing an agency, partnership or joint venture relationship between the City and the
Developer, and neither the Developer nor its employees, agents, contractors, subsidiaries,
divisions, affiliates or guests shall be deemed agents, instrumentalities, employees or
contractors of the City for any purpose hereunder, and the City, its contractors, agents
and employees shall not be deemed contractors, agents or employees of the Developer or
its subsidiaries, divisions or affiliates.
51. Successors, Assigns and Designees. The covenants and obligations set forth in this
Agreement shall extend to the Developer, and its successors, grantees, heirs and assigns.
Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to be a dedication, conveyance or grant to the
public in general nor to any persons or entities except as expressly set forth herein.
52. Enforcement.
(a) In the event that the Developer, its successors, grantees, heirs and/or assigns, as
applicable, fails to act in accordance with the terms of the Existing Zoning, the
City shall seek enforcement of said violation upon the applicable portion of the
SAP Property owned by the Developer or its successors, grantees, heirs and/or
assigns, as applicable.
(b) Enforcement of this Agreement shall be by action against any Parties or person
violating, or attempting to violate, any covenants or agreements set forth in this
Agreement. Each party to any such action shall bear their own attorney's fees.
(c) This enforcement provision shall be in addition to any other remedies available at
law, in equity or both.
53. Amendment or Termination by Mutual Consent. This Agreement may not be
amended or terminated during its Term except by mutual agreement of the Developer
(including its successors, grantees, heirs and assigns, as applicable) and the City in
writing (except as expressly provided otherwise herein including at Section 35(b)). Prior
41
MAGIC CITY INNOVATION DISTRICT SAP
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
to amending or terminating this Agreement, the City Commission shall hold two (2) duly
noticed public hearings on the matter.
(a) Notwithstanding the foregoing, and as provided in this Agreement, the Project
may be developed in one (1) or more phases in accordance with the Existing
Zoning and this Agreement. This Agreement may be modified, amended or
released as to any phase, or any portion thereof, by a written instrument executed
by the then owner(s) of such phase, provided that the same is also approved by the
City Commission at two (2) public hearings and that following such modification,
amendment or release all other Miami 21 minimum requirements for Special Area
Plans continue to be complied with (such as minimum acreage). In the event that
there is a recorded homeowners, master, condominium and/or other association
covering the SAP Property, or any phase or any portion thereof, said association
may (in lieu of the signature or consent of the individual members or owners), on
behalf of its members and in accordance with its articles of incorporation and
bylaws, consent to any proposed modification, amendment or release (in whole or
in part) of this Agreement by written instrument executed by the association. Any
consent made pursuant to a vote of an association shall be evidenced by a written
resolution of the association and a certification executed by the secretary of the
association's board of directors affirming that the vote complied with the articles
of incorporation and the bylaws of the association. For purposes of this
Agreement, references to "condominium association" or "association" shall mean
any condominium or other association or entity, including master association, as
applicable, which governs any portion of the SAP Property.
54. Third -Party Defense. The City and the Developer shall each, at their own cost and
expense, vigorously defend any claims, suits or demands brought against them by third
parties challenging this Agreement or the Project, or objecting to any aspect thereof,
including without limitation, (i) a consistency challenge pursuant to Section 163.3215,
Florida Statutes (2018), (ii) a petition for writ of certiorari, (iii) an action for declaratory
judgment or (iv) any claims for loss, damage, liability or expense (including reasonable
attorneys' fees). The City and the Developer shall promptly give the other written notice
of any such action, including those that are pending or threatened, and copies of all
responses, filings and pleadings with respect thereto.
55. No Third -Party Beneficiary. No persons or entities other than the Developer and the
City, and their heirs and permitted successors, grantees and assigns, shall have any rights
whatsoever under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties agree that
the Concerned Leaders of Little Haiti shall be an intended third -party beneficiary solely
for purposes of Section 16(b)(3)(ii) of this Agreement.
56. Recording. This Agreement shall be recorded in the Public Records of the County by
the Developer at the Developer's expense and shall inure to the benefit of the City. A
copy of the recorded Agreement shall be provided to the City Clerk and City Attorney
within two (2) weeks of recording.
42
MAGIC CITY INNOVATION DISTRICT SAP
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
57. No Conflict of Interest. The Developer agrees to comply with Section 2-612 of the City
Code as of the Effective Date, with respect to conflicts of interest.
58. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, each
of which shall constitute an original but all of which, when taken together, shall
constitute one and the same agreement.
59. Estoppel Certificate. Upon request by any Party to this Agreement, or any of its
successors, grantees, heirs and/or assigns, the City shall deliver, within thirty (30) days
after such request is made, a certificate in writing (in a recordable form, if requested)
certifying (i) that this Agreement is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there
have been any modifications, a description of such modifications and confirmation that
this Agreement as modified is in full force and effect); (ii) that to the best knowledge of
the City, the requesting Party is not, at that time, in default under any provision of this
Agreement, or, if in default, the nature thereof in detail; (iii) to the best knowledge of the
City, whether such Party has a claim against any other Party under this Agreement, and,
if so, the nature thereof and the dollar amount of such claim; and (iv) such other matters
as such requesting Party or its lender may reasonably request. The Parties further agree
that such certificate shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to the City Attorney and
may, in addition to the Developer (including its successors and assigns) be relied upon by
(i) any prospective purchaser of the fee or mortgage or assignee of any mortgage on the
fee of the SAP Property or any portion thereof and/or (ii) any prospective or existing
lender of the Developer (including its successors and assigns) as identified by the
Developer in its request therefore.
NOW, THEREFORE, the City and the Developer have caused this Agreement to be
duly executed.

development program will be concentrated into the core of the campus, stepping down
significantly towards the periphery of the SAP Area boundaries, along the NE 2nd Avenue
corridor and NE 4th Court corridors, where the intensities and heights under the current
zoning atlas will remain unchanged (maintaining current Transect Zones), providing an
important buffer and appropriate contextual transitions to the surrounding areas.
b. MCID Magic City Innovation District Urban Core Transect Zone (MCID). Pursuant to
this Regulating Plan, a new Transect Zone category is hereby created for the SAP and
applicable within the SAP Area only: the MCID Magic City Innovation District Urban Core
Transect Zone (MCID). As described throughout this Regulating Plan, the MCID Transect
Zone has two (2) sub -categories, MCID-1 and MCID-2, the boundaries of which within the
SAP Area are delineated on Sheets 17-18 of the Concept Book. The MCID Transect
Zone shall have the equivalent standards and criteria, and be regulated the same, under
the Miami 21 Code as the T6-0 Urban Core Transect Zone, as modified by this Regulating
Plan. In addition, except as modified by this Regulating Plan (i) the MCID subcategory of
MCID-1 shall have the equivalent standards and criteria, and be regulated the same, under

2 shall have the equivalent standards and criteria, and be regulated the same, under the
Miami 21 Code as the T6-24-0 Transect Zone (in each case subject to the modifications in
this Regulating Plan).
The intent of the MCID Transect Zone is to effectuate the project pillars and guiding
principles of the SAP described above, with the overall goal of creating a true innovation
district and entrepreneurial hub for the City within the SAP Area, coupled with the
purposeful revitalization of the Little Haiti and Little River neighborhoods and strengthening
of the local community.
c. SAP Campus Zones. The SAP is divided into four (4) "campus zones," which generally
trace the boundaries of the Transect Zone designations within the SAP Area, as illustrated
on Sheet 22 of the Concept Book.
1. Le Marche DuPuis Campus Zone —The western corridor campus zone including
the SAP parcels adjacent to NE 2nd Avenue, which will maintain the current T5-0

development program, building design and infrastructure engineering may be necessary during the
implementation of the development phases within the SAP Area. The SAP development program
shall be limited only as expressly set forth in the Development Agreement, and as generally subject
to the applicable Transect Zone limitations under this Regulating Plan (and under the Code where
not modified by this Regulating Plan). Further, except as expressly referenced herein and in the
Development Agreement, the Concept Book is intended to provide contextual and illustrative
concepts to help describe the intent and vision of the SAP and examples of permitted, encouraged
and compatible development types, and does not act as a general regulatory tool or restriction to
control use and development of private property or infrastructure improvements. Where any
development within the SAP Area is not governed, addressed or contemplated by the adopted SAP
materials, including this Regulating Plan, the requirements of the Code shall apply to such
development.

The shared Parking Standards Table provides the method for calculating shared parking for Lots with
more than one Use type within the SAP Area. It refers to the parking requirements that appear in Table 4.
The parking required for any two Functions on a Lot within the SAP Area is calculated by dividing the
number of spaces required by the lesser of the two uses by the appropriate factor from this Table and
adding the result to the greater use parking requirement.
For instance: for a Lot with a Residential Use requiring 100 spaces and a Commercial Use requiring 20
spaces, the 20 spaces divided by the sharing factor of 2.22 would reduce the total requirement to 100
plus 9 spaces. For uses not indicated in this chart on a mixed use lot a sharing factor of 1.1 shall be
allowed. Additional sharing is allowed by SAP Permit

HOW TO USE THE MIAMI 21 CODE
The following information explains how the Miami 21 Code ("Miami 21 Code" or "the Code") is organized and
may best be used. This "how to" information is advisory only, and is not part of the Code adopted by the City
Commission.
Organization
The Miami 21 Code establishes standards and procedures for new development or redevelopment in the City. It
also adopts the Miami 21 Atlas, which acts as the official Zoning Atlas of the City and is filed in the City Clerk's
office. The Miami 21 Atlas designates a Transect Zone for all lands within the City.
The Code is organized such that the parts interrelate and often must be reviewed together. The list of Articles
and sections in the Table of Contents shows the main topics and overall organization of the Code.
Article 1. Definitions of Terms and Uses defines key terms in the Code in three sections: definitions of build-
ing function uses, definitions of terms and definitions of signs.
Article 2. General Provisions contains information on the legal framework of the Code, including its intent
and purpose and the Miami 21 Transect principles for settlement patterns that guide the Code. It also contains
information on the applicability of the Code which specifies rules of construction, calculations, and Transect
Zone boundaries.
Article 3. General to Zones introduces the Transect Zones as the structure for requirements related to Density
and Intensity, provides guidance for phasing, Lots and Frontages, Density Calculations, Height, off-street Park-
ing and Loading, Sustainability, public Thoroughfares and Frontages, Special Area Plans, Historic Preservation,
Waterfront Standards and the Public Benefits Program.
Article 4. Standards & Tables illustrates the components of the Code such as Intensity and parking require-
ments per Transect Zone. Article 4 Table 3 sets out the Uses allowed in the various Transect Zones, and the
type of permit required for the Use, whether administrative (Warrant) or by public hearing (Exception). It also
includes corresponding definitions, as well as descriptions of different Frontage types and Civic Space types
by Transect Zone.
Article 5. Specific to Zones establishes the Transect Zones and the regulations that apply within each Transect
Zone. Uses and development standards for each Transect are specified including Building Disposition, Build-
ing Configuration, Building Function and Density, parking and architectural, landscape and ambient standards.
Diagrams and tables accompany the text in this Article.
Article 6. Supplemental Regulations sets forth regulations that apply to specific Uses in addition to the general
regulations and Transect regulations set forth in other Articles. These uses include, for example, Piers, docks,
and boats; Home Office; Ancillary Units, Community Residences; Adult Daycare; Child Daycare; Auto -Related
Uses; helicopter landing sites; Open Air Retail; and Adult Entertainment . Sign standards are also included here.

MIAMI 21
AS ADOPTED - JANUARY 2018
Article 7. Procedures and Nonconformities sets out the rules for applying the Code and addressing conflicts.
This Article contains the regulations for the further development of Nonconforming Uses and structures — those
existing Uses and structures that upon passage of the Code will not conform to the new regulations. It details the
zoning processes by which Development and redevelopment will be permitted by the City, including administra-
tive permits and permits requiring public hearings. It also establishes general criteria by which administrative
permits and public hearing permits will be reviewed.
Article 8. Thoroughfares sets forth guidelines and definitions for public Thoroughfares, as well as a catalogue
of Thoroughfares appropriate to various Transect Zones.
Article 9. Landscape Requirements establishes minimum landscape standards that enhance, improve and
maintain the quality of the City's landscape.
Instructions for Navigating the Articles
To determine the regulations of the Code applicable to a site, one must consult both the Miami 21 Code and
the Miami 21 Atlas. The Miami 21 Atlas designates the Transect Zones for all properties in the City. The Miami
21 Code sets forth the standards for each Transect Zone.
The first step is to refer to the Miami 21 Atlas to find the location of the site. The Atlas will show the Transect Zone
that is applied to the site. The Atlas can be found in the office of the City Clerk and the Planning Department.
The second step is to refer to the Miami 21 Code for the relevant regulations associated with the Transect Zone
for the site. Begin by referring to the general Transect Zone regulations set forth in Article 3. Next, use Article
4 to determine the building function uses and other requirements allowed by each Transect and determine
whether the application is allowed By Right, by administrative review or by public hearing process. Article 5
will then determine the Building Disposition and Configuration of Structures on the property in each particular
Transect Zone, as well as other standards such as architectural and environmental standards. Finally, consult
the Supplemental Regulations in Article 6 for additional requirements which may be applicable to certain Uses.
Determining which Procedures Apply
In order to build or redevelop property, a City zoning approval is required. Article 7, Section 7.1, describes the
various types of permits that may apply to the application and the process that will be required in order to obtain
the particular permit. Consult the subsections in this Article that describe how an application is initiated, how an
application is processed, the criteria for review, and what other parts of the Code apply.

ARTICLE 2. GENERAL PROVISIONS
2.1 PURPOSE AND INTENT
2.1.1 Title and Purpose
a. This Code shall be known as the Miami 21 Code of the City of Miami, Florida. This Code is de
clared to be in accord with the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan, as required by the
Local Government Comprehensive Planning and Land Development Regulation Act, Section
163.3161 et seq., Florida Statutes (the "Comprehensive Plan"). A primary purpose of this Code
is to implement the Comprehensive Plan.
b. It is further the purpose of the Miami 21 Code to promote the public health, safety, morals,
convenience, comfort, amenities, prosperity, and general welfare of the City and to provide a
wholesome, serviceable, and attractive community, including without limitation protection of the
environment; conservation of land, energy and natural resources; improved mobility; more efficient
use of public funds; greater health benefits of a pedestrian environment; historic preservation;
provision of recreational and open spaces; reduction of sprawl; and improvement of the built
environment and human habitat.
c. To further the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan and the purpose of this Code, the
City is divided into Transect Zones ("T Zones") of such number, characteristics, area, common
unity of purpose, adaptability, or use as will accomplish the goals and objectives of the Compre-
hensive Plan and this Code.
2.1.2 Intent
The Miami 21 Code is intended to advance the interests of both conservation and development
while responding to the existing conditions of the City, its regional context, and its natural features,
infrastructure and Buildings.
a. The conservation goals include:
1. Preserving Neighborhoods, Historical Resources and the natural environment
2. Improving the relationship between low Density Residential neighborhoods and
adjacent Commercial Corridors with appropriate transitions of Density and Height
following the theory of the Transect
3. Increasing access to the natural environment through the Baywalk, the Riverwalk,
the north -south Greenway, and new Parks
4. Conserving energy and reducing carbon dioxide emissions through improved Thoroughfare
connectedness to encourage walkability, bicycling and transit use
5. Increasing tree canopy
6. Encouraging green Buildings
11.7
MIAMI 21

ARTICLE 2. GENERAL PROVISIONS
b. The development goals include:
1. Maintaining the future growth capacity of the City core to ensure its preeminence as the
transit -oriented, pedestrian -friendly focus for the region's economic, civic and cultural activi-
ties
2. Rebuilding the City's commercial Corridors to function as Mixed -Use, transit -oriented, walk-
able centers for adjacent Residential Neighborhoods
3. Ensuring that private Development contributes to increased infrastructure capacity, and
through building embellishes a pedestrian -friendly public realm of highest ambient quality
4. Establishing a rational process for successional growth in areas identified for density and
growth
2.1.3 Transect Principles
The Miami 21 Code is intended to encourage the evolution of a settlement pattern based on the
organizational principles of the Transect. The Transect is defined as a geographical cross-section
that reveals a sequence of environments. Applied to the human or the built environment, the Transect
is used to identify and organize a continuum of the physical environment ranging from the least to
the most urban.
Transect planning creates coordinated, integrated and harmonious environments, based on the ar-
rangement of all the components to support locational character. Within the range of urban contexts,
each different type of location, called a Transect Zone, has development Function, Intensity and
Disposition appropriate to the location, and integrates the details of the corresponding public realm.
To ensure this integration, the Miami 21 Code controls development on Lots as well as establishes
guidelines for the detailing of public right-of-way. For example, narrow streets with open swales find
their place in neighborhoods of suburban character, while wide streets with tree lined sidewalks ac-
company Commercial Development in more intense urban areas.
The Transect encourages the making of places that build on historic character and that evolve over
time. This evolution, with the principles enumerated below guiding growth or reduction in Density
and Intensity, is called succession. Successional change emerges from a vision of the larger urban
context and appropriate transitions across Transect Zones.
The City of Miami's urban context is comprised of a series of Neighborhoods, Corridors, urban
centers, and Districts, each with its own arrangement of Transect Zones. In all cases the goal of
transit -oriented, pedestrian -friendly, Mixed -Use urbanism shall guide the arrangement of Transect
Zones, Thoroughfares, Buildings and landscape. The specific design of each component should be
appropriate to its Transect Zone, as provided in this Code.
Transect Zones are sequential in Intensity: successional zoning changes shall only be permitted
sequentially and respecting transitions across Abutting Transect Zones as provided in Article 7.
Transect Zones manifest a range of responses to natural and urban conditions. As described in
Article 5, Transect Zones T1, T2 and T3, the least urban, emphasize the presence of the natural
11.8
MIAMI 21

ARTICLE 2. GENERAL PROVISIONS
environments. Transect Zones T4, T5 and T6, D1, D2 and D3 prioritize the built environment.
Specific to Natural (T1), Rural (T2) and Sub -Urban (T3) Zones, impermeable surface shall be mini-
mized and confined to the ratio of Lot Coverage by Building specified in Article 5. To the extent not
inconsistent with applicable state or federal law, storm water management on Thoroughfares may
be accomplished through retention and percolation, channeled by curbside swales, or through un-
derground storm drainage channeled by raised curbs.
Specific to General Urban (T4), Urban Center (T5) and Urban Core (T6) Zones, to the extent not
inconsistent with applicable state or federal law, the continuity of the urbanized areas should transi-
tion to take precedence over the natural environment, except Parks, recreation and natural features.
Storm water management on Thoroughfares and Lots shall be implemented primarily through un-
derground storm drainage channeled by raised curbs, and there shall be no retention or detention
required on the individual Lots. Impermeable surface shall be confined to the ratio of Lot Coverage
by Building specified in Article 5.
2.1.3.1 The City - Guiding Principles
a. The City should retain its natural infrastructure and visual character derived from its location and
climate, including topography, landscape and coastline.
b. Growth strategies should encourage Infill and redevelopment.
c. New Development should be structured to reinforce a pattern of Neighborhoods and urban cen-
ters, focusing growth at transit nodes rather than along Corridors.
d. Transportation Corridors should be planned and reserved in coordination with land Use.
e. Green Corridors should be encouraged and developed to enhance and connect the urbanized
areas.
f. The City should include a framework of transit, pedestrian, and bicycle systems that provide
alternatives to automobile use.
g. A diversity of land use should be distributed throughout the City to enable a variety of economic
activity, workplace, residence, recreation and civic activity.
h. Affordable and Workforce Housing should be distributed throughout the City to match job op-
portunities and to avoid concentrations of poverty.
i. The City should expand and enhance transit opportunities and connections throughout the City.
2.1.3.2 The Community - Guiding Principles
a. Neighborhoods and urban centers should be the preferred pattern of Development and Transect
Zones emphasizing single use should be the exception.
b. Neighborhoods and Urban centers should be compact, pedestrian -oriented and Mixed -Use.
Density and Intensity of Use should relate to degree of transit service.
11.9
MIAMI 21

ARTICLE 2. GENERAL PROVISIONS
c. The ordinary activities of daily living should occur within walking distance of most dwellings, al-
lowing independence to those who do not drive.
d. Interconnected networks of Thoroughfares should be designed to disperse and reduce the length
of automobile trips and to encourage walking and bicycling.
e. A range of Open Space, including Parks, Squares and Playgrounds, should be distributed within
Neighborhoods and urban centers.
f. Appropriate building Densities and land uses should occur within walking distance of transit
stops.
g.
Civic, Institutional and Commercial activity should be embedded in Mixed -Use urban centers,
not isolated in remote single -use complexes.
h. Schools should be located to enable children to walk or bicycle safely to school. New schools
should not be located on primary Thoroughfares.
i. Within Neighborhoods, a range of housing types and price levels should accommodate diverse
ages and incomes.
2.1.3.3 The Block and the Building - Guiding Principles
a. Buildings and landscaping should contribute to the physical definition of Thoroughfares as civic
places.
b. Development should adequately accommodate vehicles while respecting the pedestrian and the
spatial form of public space.
c. The design of Thoroughfares and Buildings should reinforce safe environments, but not at the
expense of accessibility. Designs should incorporate principles of Crime Prevention Through
Environmental Design (CPTED).
d. Architecture and landscape design should grow from local climate, topography, history, and
building practice.
e. Buildings should allow their inhabitants to experience the geography and climate through energy
efficient design.
f. Civic Buildings and public gathering places should be located to reinforce community identity
and support self-government.
g.
Civic Buildings should be distinctive and appropriate to a role more important than the other
Buildings that constitute the fabric of the City.
h. Preservation and renewal of historic resources should be facilitated to affirm the continuity of the
community.

b. Time. The time within which an act is to be done shall be computed by excluding the first and
including the last day, except that if the last day is a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, that day
shall be excluded.
2.2.5 Transect Zone Boundaries
2.2.5.1 Except as otherwise specifically provided, a Transect symbol or name shown within Transect
boundaries in the Miami 21 Atlas indicates that regulations pertaining to the Transect Zone extend
throughout the whole area surrounded by the boundary line.
2.2.5.2 Except as provided in Section 2.2.5.3, where a Transect Zone designation is not indicated for an

or Easements shall be construed as following such centerlines as they exist on the ground.
11.13
MIAMI 21
AS ADOPTED - JANUARY 2018
ARTICLE 2. GENERAL PROVISIONS
b. Boundaries indicated as approximately following boundaries of Thoroughfares, public or private
Property Lines, Rights -Of -Way, or Easements shall be construed as following such boundaries.
Provided, however, that where such boundaries are so located with relation to other opposing
boundaries as to leave such areas without apparent zoning designation, such boundaries shall
be construed as running to the centerlines of the areas remaining.
c. Boundaries indicated as approximately following mean high water lines or centerlines of streams,
canals, lakes, bays, or other bodies of water shall be construed as following such mean high
water lines or centerlines. In the case of a change in mean high water line, the boundary shall
be construed as moving with the change.
d. Where variation of the actual location from the mapped location would change the zoning status
of a Lot or parcel, the boundary shall be interpreted so as to avoid the change.
e. In the event of vacation, the boundary shall be construed as remaining in its location, except
where ownership of the vacated property is divided other than at the center, in which case the
boundary shall be construed as moving with the ownership.
2.2.5.4 Boundaries indicated as approximately following City limits shall be construed as following such City
limits. Where property previously within the City is removed from its limits, the zoning boundaries
involved shall be construed as moving to conform to the change in City limits. Where property previ-
ously located outside the City is annexed, zoning boundaries shall not be construed as moving with
City limits. In such cases, the City may receive and process permit applications for the property, but
no permit shall be issued until the City Commission shall have rezoned the property to establish its
zoning status and the permit is found to be in accord with the zoning.
2.2.5.5 Boundaries indicated as entering any body of water, but not continuing to intersection with other
Transect boundaries or with the City limits, shall be construed as extending in the direction in which
they enter the body of water to intersection with other zoning boundaries or with the City limits.
2.2.5.6 Boundaries indicated as approximately parallel to or extensions of mean high water lines or center-
lines of bodies of water shall be construed as being parallel to or extensions of such features.
2.2.5.7 Where distances are not specifically indicated on any map in the Miami 21 Atlas, they shall be de-
termined by reference to the scale of the map.
2.2.5.8 Where boundaries occur within a parcel of land comprising more than one Lot, the Lots shall be
developed separately according to the assigned Transect Zone.

ARTICLE 3. GENERAL TO ZONES
3.1 TRANSECT ZONES
3.1.1 The Miami 21 Code Transect Zones are described in Article 4, Table 1 and include the standards
summarized in Article 4, Table 2 and further described in Article 5. They range in Function and
Density from low -Density, primarily residential areas to high Density Mixed -Use areas, across the
Transect, with zones identified as T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6, CS, CI, CI -HD, D1, D2 and D3 and all R,
L, 0 and T6 subcategories.
3.2 PHASING
All development shall conform to this Code regardless of phasing. Each phase of a development
project shall conform to this Code in its entirety.
3.3 LOTS AND FRONTAGES
3.3.1 Lots assembled into one (1) ownership within one (1) Transect Zone may be developed as a single
Lot. Lots assembled into one (1) ownership that encompass more than one (1) Transect Zone shall
be developed according to the corresponding Transect regulation for each Lot, except as described
in Section 3.6.1(e). In such cases, there shall be no transfer of Density or Intensity of Development
Capacity between Transect Zones, except if the Lots are assigned equal Densities, Density may
be transferred across the Transect boundary. Where Lots are assembled into one (1) ownership,
the side or rear Setbacks sharing the Property Line may be eliminated. Lot assembly shall require
a Unity -of -Title acceptable to the City Attorney. Contiguous Lots in one (1) ownership, as of the ef-
fective date of this Code, may be developed as one (1) Lot in excess of the maximum Lot size.
3.3.2 In Transect Zones T5, T6, CI, CS, D1, D2, and D3, buildable sites shall Enfront a vehicular Thor-
oughfare or a Pedestrian Passage, with at least one Principal Frontage.
3.3.3 Lots facing Thoroughfares on more than one (1) side shall have designated Principal Frontage(s) and
may have Secondary Frontage(s). Unless otherwise designated by a Special Area Plan, a Principal
Frontage shall be that facing the Thoroughfare of higher pedestrian importance or intensity (i.e.,
traffic volume, number of lanes, etc.), as determined by the Planning Department upon request by
the Zoning Administrator.
a. If two Thoroughfares are of equal importance each Frontage shall be considered a Principal
Frontage. Lots with two or more Frontages may consider other non -fronting Property Lines as
sides.
b. Lots shall have at least one (1) Principal Frontage, except waterfront Lots shall have at least
two (2) Principal Frontages, one of which shall be the waterfront and shall conform to Waterfront
Setback Standards. For Waterfront Setbacks, see Section 3.11.
c. Where an existing lot of record is located adjacent to a Thoroughfare in a manner that creates
an irregular Frontage such that the side or rear yards cannot be determined as with a regular lot,
the Zoning Administrator shall determine, by Waiver, the yard and setbacks for the lot as fits the
circumstances of the case. In addition to general Waiver requirements, the Zoning Administra-
111.5

ARTICLE 3. GENERAL TO ZONES
tor shall consider the minimum dimensions and methods of measurement as generally required
for either a side or rear yard in the transect, determining which shall apply by the relation of the
portion of the lot on which the yard is to be located to the adjoining lot, with due regard to the
orientation of structures and buildable areas on each lot.
3.3.4 For the purposes of this Code, Lots are divided into Layers which control Development on the Lot.
3.3.5 Where the property to be developed abuts an existing Building, a Waiver may be granted so that
the proposed Building matches the dominant Setback of the block and its Context.
3.3.6 For new Buildings in Established Setbacks Areas, the Established Setback shall be maintained.
(See also Article 4, Diagram 10) Galleries and Arcades may be permitted within the First Layer in
Established Setback Areas and shall not encroach the Public Right -of -Way except by Special Area
Plan. Where a Gallery or Arcade is permitted, the Established Setback shall only be maintained
if a Gallery or Arcade is provided. Where a Gallery or Arcade is not provided, the setback for the
underlying Transect Zone shall be maintained.

3.4 DENSITY AND INTENSITY CALCULATIONS
3.4.1 Lot Area, inclusive of any dedications, is used for purposes of Density and Intensity calculation.
3.4.2 Density shall be calculated in terms of units as specified by Article 4, Tables 3 and 4. The referenced
tables provide the maximum allowable Densities. Intensity shall be calculated in terms of Floor Lot
Ratio. The buildable Density or Intensity on any particular site will be affected by other regulations
in this Code and thus the stated maximums of this Miami 21 Code may exceed the actual Capacity
that a site can sustain when other regulations of this Code are applied to the site. The inability to
reach the maximum Density or Intensity because of the necessity to conform to the other regulations
of this Code shall not constitute hardship for purposes of a Variance.
3.4.3 Lodging Units shall be considered as equivalent to one-half (0.50) of a Dwelling Unit.
3.4.4 The allowable Transect Zone Density may be increased as provided by the Future Land Use Element
of the Miami Comprehensive Plan (Residential Density Increase Areas), as illustrated in Article 4,

3.5 MEASUREMENT OF HEIGHT
3.5.1 Unless otherwise specified herein, the Height of Buildings shall be measured in Stories. The height
of Fences and walls shall be measured in feet. The Height of Buildings, Fences and walls shall be
measured from the Average Sidewalk Elevation or, where no sidewalk exists, the average of the
record profile grade elevation of the street Abutting the Principal Frontage of the Building, as deter-
mined by the Public Works Department. In the event that the base flood elevation, as established
by FEMA, is higher than the sidewalk or grade elevations, the Height of the first Story but not the
height of Fences and walls shall be measured from the base flood elevation.
3.5.2 A Story is a Habitable level within a Building of a maximum fourteen (14) feet in Height from finished
floor to finished floor. Basements are not considered Stories for the purposes of determining Building
Height. A ground level retail Story may exceed this limit up to a total height of twenty-five (25) feet. A
single floor level exceeding fourteen (14) feet, or twenty-five (25) feet at ground level retail, shall be
counted as two (2) Stories; except for T6-36, T6-48, T6-60, T6-80, and D1, where a single floor level
exceeding fourteen (14) feet may count as one (1) story if the building height does not exceed the
maximum height, including all applicable bonuses, allowed by the transect at fourteen (14) feet per
floor. Where the first two stories are retail, their total combined Height shall not exceed thirty-nine
(39) feet and the first floor shall be a minimum of fourteen (14) feet in Height. Mezzanines may not
exceed thirty-three percent (33%) of the Habitable Space Floor Area, except for D1, where mezza-
nines may not exceed fifty percent (50%) of the Habitable Space Floor Area. Mezzanines extending
beyond thirty-three percent (33%) of the Floor Area, or fifty percent (50%) of the Floor Area in D1,
shall be counted as an additional floor. The Height of a Parking Structure concealed by a Liner may
be equal to the Height of the Liner; this may result in a Liner Story concealing more than one level
of Parking.
3.5.3 Except as specifically provided herein, the Height limitations of this Code shall not apply to any roof
Structures for housing elevators, stairways, tanks, ventilating fans, solar energy collectors, or similar
equipment required to operate and maintain the Building (provided that such Structures shall not
cover more than twenty percent (20%) of roof area for T4 and T5); nor to church spires, steeples,
belfries, monuments, water towers, flagpoles, vents, or similar Structures, which may be allowed
to exceed the maximum Height by Waiver; nor to fire or parapet walls, which shall not extend more
than five (5) feet above the maximum Height in T4 and T5 and ten (10) feet in T6 and Districts.
3.5.4 No Building or other Structure shall be located in a manner or built to a Height which constitutes a
hazard to aviation or creates hazards to persons or property by reason of unusual exposure to avia-
tion hazards. In addition to Height limitations established by this Code, limitations established by
the Miami -Dade County Height Zoning Ordinance as stated in Article 37 of the Code of Miami -Dade
County (Miami International Airport) shall apply to Heights of Buildings and Structures.
A letter authorizing clearance from the Miami -Dade Aviation Department or the Federal Aviation Ad-
ministration (FAA) may be required by the Zoning Administrator prior to the issuance of any Building
permit.
Construction of an Educational facility within the delineated Miami International Airport Critical Ap-
proach Area as defined by the Miami -Dade County Code shall only be granted by Exception. Con-
struction of such facility is subject to the approval by the Miami -Dade County Aviation Department
or any other agencies authorized by law to approve the construction.

3.5.5 Height limitations for Properties Abutting and in Proximity to National Historic Landmarks
a. All properties designated a National Historic Landmark (NHL) which include a Designed Land-
scape that is an integral part of the documented significance supporting the NHL designation shall
be protected by height limitations throughout the entire Civic Institution zoned property of which
the NHL is a part, so as to protect the Designed Landscape from the potentially adverse effects
of an undertaking that may diminish the integrity of the NHL property's location, design, setting,
materials, workmanship, association or qualities that qualified it for NHL designation. Examples
of adverse effects which diminish the integrity of the NHL property include those which: cause
physical destruction of or damage to all or part of the NHL property; or change the character of
the NHL property's use or physical features within the NHL property's setting that contribute to
its historic significance; or introduce visual, atmospheric or audible elements that diminish the
integrity of the NHL property's significant historic features; or alter the NHL property in a way that
is not consistent with the federal standards for the treatment of historic properties and applicable
guidelines, as published by the United States Department of the Interior.
b. The height of structures throughout the entire Civic Institution zoned property of which the NHL
is a part shall not exceed that established by a six (6) degree vertical plane which is measured
beginning from the ground floor elevation of the principal historic building at the facade that over-
looks the Designed Landscape, which plane shall extend in a one hundred eighty (180) degree
arc facing the Designed Landscape and measured at grade from the midpoint of the building
facade. The ground floor elevation shall be measured according to the 1929 N.G.V.D. of Mean
Sea Level supplied by the City of Miami. Structures existing on affected properties at the time of
the effective date of this Miami 21 Code shall not be considered nonconforming structures.
c. Should the height limitations for structures located in such Civic Institution zoned property as of
the effective date of this Miami 21 Code be more restrictive than that created by this section, the
most restrictive height shall apply. In the event of a rezoning of all or part of the Civic Institution
property, either by successional zoning or by Special Area Plan, the height limitations specified
in this Section 3.5.5 shall be incorporated in all subsequent rezonings.
d. For purposes of this Section 3.5.5., the following definitions shall apply:
1. Designed Landscape is one or more of the following:
• a landscape that has significance as a design or work of art;
• a landscape consciously designed and laid out by a master gardener, landscape archi-
tect, architect, or horticulturalist to a design principle, or an owner or other amateur using
a recognized style or tradition in response or reaction to a recognized style or tradition;
• a landscape having a historical association with a significant person, trend, event, etc. in
landscape gardening or landscape architecture; or
• a landscape having a significant relationship to the theory or practice of landscape ar-
chitecture.
2. National Historic Landmark is a nationally significant historic place designated by the Secretary
of the Interior because it possesses exceptional value or quality in illustrating or interpreting
the heritage of the United States, and defined in Title 36, Section 65.3 of the Code of Federal
Regulations.

111.16
MIAMI 21
AS ADOPTED - JANUARY 2018
ARTICLE 3. GENERAL TO ZONES
b. Thoroughfares consist of lanes for vehicles, transit, bicycles and Public Frontages. The lanes
may have a variety of widths for movement and parking. The Public Frontages contribute to the
character of Transect Zones. They may include swales, Sidewalks, curbing, Planters, bicycle
paths and street trees. See Article 4, Tables 6 and 8.
c. Thoroughfares should be designed in context with the urban form and desired design speed of
the Transect Zones through which they pass. The Public Frontages that pass from one Transect
Zone to another should be adjusted accordingly.
d. Bicycles are a sustainable and viable mode of transportation and recreation in the City of Miami.
Bicycle use of Thoroughfares should be as follows: Bicycles and vehicles may share use of lanes
on all Thoroughfares. Thoroughfares that have sufficient paving width to accommodate bicyclists'
safety should include dedicated Bicycle Lanes. Greenways, waterfront walks and other Civic
Spaces should include Bicycle usage .
e. A City-wide bicycle plan may designate an interconnected network serving bicyclists with a series
of marked routes that include Bicycle Lanes as well as Bicycle Routes that give bicycles priority,
such as those Thoroughfares which parallel major corridors or include major corridors which can
be reconfigured to limit conflicts between vehicles and bicycles.
f. Pedestrian comfort should be a primary consideration of Thoroughfare design and dimensions.
Design conflict between vehicular, bicycle and pedestrian movement should be decided in favor
of the pedestrian.
3.8.2 Thoroughfares
a. The guidelines for Thoroughfares are as described in Article 8.
b. The Thoroughfare network should be designed to prioritize connectivity, defining Blocks not ex-
ceeding an average perimeter length of 1,320 feet. The length shall be measured as the sum of
Lot Frontage Lines. Thoroughfare closings should not be allowed; instead, traffic calming designs
should be deployed to control traffic volume and speed.
c. All Thoroughfares should terminate at other Thoroughfares, to form a network. Cul-de-sacs
should be permitted only when supported by natural site conditions. Thoroughfares that provide
View Corridors shall not be vacated.
d. In T5 and T6 Zones, Public and Private Frontages should be coordinated with a single paving
and landscape design as provided in Article 4, Table 6 and Article 8.
3.8.3 Public Frontages
a. Public Frontages should be designed as shown in Article 4, Table 6 and allocated within Transect
Zones as specified in Article 4, Table 2.
b. Within the Public Frontages, the arrangement of street trees and street lights should be as pro-
vided in Article 8.
c. The Public Frontage in Transect Zones T1, T2 and T3 should include trees of various species, and
111.17
MIAMI 21
AS ADOPTED - JANUARY 2018
ARTICLE 3. GENERAL TO ZONES
may include low maintenance understory landscape. The introduced landscape should consist
primarily of native species requiring minimal irrigation, fertilization and maintenance.
d. The Public Frontage in Transect Zones T4, T5, T6 and D1 should include trees planted in a
regularly -spaced Allee of single or alternated species with shade canopies of a height that, at
maturity, clears the first Story. The introduced landscape should consist primarily of durable spe-
cies tolerant of soil compaction.
3.8.4 Vision Clearance
3.8.4.1 Intent; "Material Impediment to Visibility" construed.
It is the intent of these regulations to provide protection from traffic hazards at intersections for au-
tomotive vehicles and their passengers, and for cyclists and pedestrians, including small children.
Given this intent, the phrase "Material Impediment to Visibility," as used here, is to be construed as
any material obstruction to Visibility which would result in concealment of a child over two and one-
half (2 1/2) feet in height approaching an intersection, or would conceal an approaching automotive
vehicle or cyclist from such a child. In determinations as to whether or not there is Material Impedi-
ment to Visibility, the speed, direction, and duration of movement to point of potential collision or
contact shall be considered.
Adjacent to Thoroughfares, nothing shall be erected, placed, planted, or allowed to grow in such a
manner as to form a Material Impediment to Visibility between the heights of two and one-half (2
1/2) feet and ten (10) feet above the street grade level within Visibility Triangles described below:
a. At Thoroughfare intersections with Building Setbacks:
Visibility Triangles shall be maintained to include an area bounded by the first twenty-five (25)
feet along the intersecting edges of the right-of-way (or Base Building Line) projected where
rounded, and a line running across the Lot and connecting the ends of such twenty -five-foot
lines. See Article 4, Table 8.
b. At intersections of driveways with Thoroughfares with Building Setbacks:
Visibility Triangles shall be maintained to include an area bounded by the first ten (10) feet along
the intersecting edges of the Base Building Line and the driveway, projected where rounded, and
a line running across any intervening right-of-way and the Lot and connecting the ends of such
ten -foot lines. See Article 4, Table 8.
c. At Thoroughfare intersections with Buildings with no Setbacks:
Visibility Triangles shall be maintained to include an area bounded by the first ten (10) feet along
the intersecting edges of the Base Building Line, projected where rounded, and a line running
across the Lot and connecting the ends of such ten -foot lines. See Article 4, Table 8.
d. At intersections of driveways with Thoroughfares with no Building Setbacks:
Visibility triangles shall be maintained to include an area bounded by the first five (5) feet along
the intersecting edges of the Base Building Line and driveway, projected where rounded, and
a line running across any intervening right-of-way and the Lot and connecting the ends of such
five-foot lines. See Article 4, Table 8.
e. At all Thoroughfare intersections:
111.18

ARTICLE 3. GENERAL TO ZONES
Visibility Triangles shall be maintained to include an area bounded by the first ten (10) feet along
the intersecting edges of the Base Building Line, projected where rounded, and a line running
across the Lot and connecting the ends of such ten -foot lines. See Article 4, Table 8.
3.8.4.2. Variances prohibited.
No Variances from the provisions of Section 3.8.4 are permitted.
3.9 SPECIAL AREA PLANS
The purpose of a Special Area Plan is to allow parcels greater than nine (9) Abutting acres in size
to be master planned so as to allow greater integration of public improvements and Infrastructure,
and greater flexibility so as to result in higher or specialized quality building and Streetscape design
within the Special Area Plan.
The purpose of a Special Area Plan further is to encourage the assembly and master planning of
parcels greater than nine (9) Abutting acres in size, in order to provide greater integration of public
and private improvements and Infrastructure; to enable Thoroughfare connectivity; to encourage
a variety of Building Heights, massing and Streetscape design, and to provide high quality design
elements, all in order to further the intent of this Code expressed in Article 2.
3.9.1 General
a. The single or multiple owner(s) of Abutting properties in excess of nine (9) acres may apply for
a rezoning to a Special Area Plan.
b. A Special Area Plan shall be approved by the process of rezoning with or without Transect
changes.
c. A Special Area Plan shall assign Thoroughfares, Transect Zones and Civic Space Types, with
appropriate transitions to Abutting areas. Guidelines for Thoroughfares and Public Frontages
may be adjusted to the particular circumstances of the Special Area Plan.
d. A Special Area Plan shall include a map of the Thoroughfares and Transect Zones, and the
standards that deviate from the requirements of Article 5.
e. A Special Area Plan shall assign at least five percent (5%) of its aggregated Lot Area to a Civic
Space Type. Civic Building sites are to be located within or adjacent to Civic Space Types or at
the axial termination of significant Thoroughfares. The developer shall be responsible for con-
structing the public improvements within the Special Area Plan, including but not limited to the
Civic Space Types and Thoroughfares.
f. Development within the Special Area Plan shall be pursuant to a recorded development agree-
ment that will establish the allocation of Thoroughfares and Civic Space Types and Building Area
among the Building sites, and the creation and retention of the public benefits.
g•
Unless a Building is specifically approved as part of the Special Area Plan, any Building shall
be reviewed by the Planning Director, after referral to and recommendation from the CRC for

conformance to the Plan, prior to issuance of the Building Permit.
h. A Special Area Plan may include:
1. A differentiation of the Thoroughfares as a Primary -Grid (A -Grid) and a Secondary -Grid
(B-Grid). Buildings along the A -Grid shall be held to the highest standard of this Code in
support of pedestrian activity. Buildings along the B-Grid may be more readily considered
for automobile -oriented standards allowing surface parking lots, unlined parking decks, and
drive-throughs. The Frontages assigned to the B-Grid shall not exceed thirty percent (30%)
of the total length within a Special Area Plan. For Frontages on the B-Grid, parking areas
may be allowed in the Second Layer.

sidewalk, either cantilevered or supported by columns. The Gallery or Arcade Frontage may
be combined with a Retail Frontage as shown in Article 4, Table 6. Gallery or Arcade Front-
age within the First Layer may apply towards Open Space requirements.
4. Build -to -lines that differ from Transect Zone Setback requirement.
5. ATerminated Vista location, requiring that the Building be provided with architectural articula-
tion of a Type and character that responds to the location.
6. A Pedestrian Passage, requiring a minimum ten (10) foot wide pedestrian access be reserved
between Buildings.
7. A preservation plan acceptable to the Historic and Environmental Preservation Board for any
historic resources in the area of the Special Area Plan.
8. Area Design Guidelines.
9. A parking management program that enables shared parking among public and private Uses.
10. Flexible allocation of development capacity and Height, excluding Density on individual sites
within the Special Area Plan shall be allowed so long as the capacity or Height distribution
does not result in development that is out of Scale or character with the surrounding area,
and provides for appropriate transitions.

3.12.2 Neighborhood Conservation Districts (NCD)
a. Intent
A Neighborhood Conservation District (NCD) is an overlay zoning district that is intended to
preserve unique and distinctive neighborhoods that exhibit a certain defined character worthy of
protection, such as physical features, design characteristics, and recognized cultural or histori-
cal identity. The Neighborhood Conservation District provides additional regulations or design
guidelines for new construction, major alterations and additions to existing Buildings, in order to
protect, enhance and perpetuate the value of the neighborhood conservation area. It is further
intended that such districts and the regulations adopted for them shall be in accord with, and
promote the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan.
b. Purposes
The purposes of creating a Neighborhood Conservation District, singularly or in combination,
are to:
1. Protect neighborhoods that have distinguishable architectural character but that do not qualify
for historic district status because of the loss of the original fabric through attrition and new
development, although the neighborhood still maintains a considerable number of non-
contiguous traditional structures that retain some characteristics that reflect their historical
origins.
2. Identify structures within the district that, while not historically designated, possess signifi-
cant character reflecting a Type, period or method of construction important to Miami's past.
Demolition of such structures will be subject to review prior to receiving a demolition permit.
111.22
MIAMI 21

3. Protect areas that have a distinctive landscape, geologic, or environmental character. Pro-
tect and promote the lush sub -tropical vegetation and tree canopy that defines the South
Florida landscape and gives particular identity to the neighborhood. Protect remaining unique
environmental features such as exposed bluffs, natural rock outcroppings, caves, natural
sinkholes, and springs.
4. Identify and celebrate those neighborhoods whose immigrant or emigre citizens have brought
a unique cultural perspective to a neighborhood and which deserve recognition and protec-
tion.
5. Protect and promote specialized commercial areas with distinct character, such as antique,
arts, outdoor markets, or design districts, and assist in their economic revitalization and en-
hancement.

MIAMI 21 ARTICLE 4. TABLE 1 TRANSECT ZONE DESCRIPTIONS
AS ADOPTED - JANUARY 2018
THE NATURAL ZONE consists of lands approximat-
ing a wilderness condition, permanently set aside for
conservation in an essentially natural state.
THE RURAL ZONE consists oflands in open orcultivated
state or sparsely settled. These include woodland,
grassland and agricultural land.
THE SUB -URBAN ZONE consists of low -Density
areas, primarily comprised of Single -Family and Two
Family residential units with relatively deep Setbacks,
Streetscapes with swales, and with or without Side-
walks. Blocks may be large and the roads may be
of irregular geometry to accommodate natural and
historic conditions.
THE GENERAL URBAN ZONE consistsofa Mixed -Use
but primarily residential urban fabric with a range of
Building types including rowhouses, small apartment
Buildings, and bungalow courts. Setbacks are short
with an urban Streetscape ofwide Sidewalks and trees
in planters. Thoroughfares typically define medium-
sized blocks.
THE URBAN CENTER ZONE consistsofhigherDensity
Mixed -Use Building types that accommodate retail and
office Uses, rowhouses and apartments. A network of
small blocks has Thoroughfares with wide Sidewalks,
steady street tree planting and Buildings set close to
the Frontages with frequent doors and windows.
THE URBAN CORE ZONE consists of the highest
Density and greatest variety of Uses, including Civic
Buildings of regional importance. A network of small
blocks has Thoroughfares with wide Sidewalks, with
steady tree planting and Buildings set close to the
Frontage with frequent doors and windows.
THE CIVIC ZONE consists of public use space and
facilities that may contrast in use to their surroundings
while reflecting adjacent Setbacks and landscape.
THE DISTRICT ZONE consists of the least regulated
Building and accommodates commercial and industrial
Uses of a scale and with a Streetscape that facilitate
vehicular access.

The shared Parking Standards Table provides the method for calculating shared parking for buildings
with more than one Use type. It refers to the parking requirements that appear in Table 4.
The parking required for any two Functions on a Lot is calculated by dividing the number of spaces
required by the lesser of the two uses by the appropriate factor from this Table and adding the result to
the greater use parking requirement.
For instance: for a building with a Residential Use requiring 100 spaces and a Commercial Use requir-
ing 20 spaces, the 20 spaces divided by the sharing factor of 1.2 would reduce the total requirement to
100 plus 17 spaces. For uses not indicated in this chart on a mixed use lot a sharing factor of 1.1 shall
be allowed. Additional sharing is allowed by Warrant.

AS ADOPTED - JANUARY 2018
a. Common Lawn: a Frontage wherein the Facade is set back sub-
stantially from the Frontage Line. The front yard created remains
unfenced and is visually continuous with adjacent yards, supporting
a common landscape. The Setback can be densely landscaped to
buffer from higher speed Thoroughfares.
b. Porch & Fence: a Frontage wherein the Facade is set back from
the Frontage Line with an attached Porch permitted to encroach. A
fence at the Frontage Line maintains the demarcation of the yard
while not blocking view into the front yard.
c. Terrace or Light Court: a Frontage wherein the Facade is set back
from the Frontage Line by an elevated terrace or a sunken light
court. This type buffers residential use from urban sidewalks and
removes the private yard from public encroachment. The raised
terrace is suitable for outdoor cafes.
d. Forecourt: a Frontage wherein a portion of the Facade is close
to the Frontage Line with a portion set back. The forecourt
with a large tree offers visual and environmental variety to
the urban Streetscape. The Forecourt may accommodate a
vehicular drop off.
e. Stoop: a Frontage wherein the Facade is aligned close to the
Frontage Line with the first Story elevated from the sidewalk
sufficiently to secure privacy for the windows. The entrance is
usually an exterior stair and landing. This type is recommended
for ground -floor Residential Use.
f. Shopfront: a Frontage wherein the Facade is aligned close to the
Frontage Line with the Building entrance at sidewalk grade. This
type is conventional for retail Use. It has substantial glazing at the
sidewalk level and an Awning that may overhang the sidewalk.
g. Gallery: a Frontage wherein the Facade is aligned close to the
Frontage Line with an attached cantilevered or a lightweight
colonnade overlapping the sidewalk. This type is conventional for
retail Use. The Gallery shall be no less than 15' feet wide and may
overlap the whole width of the sidewalk to within 2 feet of the curb.
Permitted by Special Area Plan.
h. Arcade: a Frontage wherein the Facade includes a colonnade that
overlaps the sidewalk, while the Facade at sidewalk level remains
at the Frontage Line. This type is conventional for retail Use. The
arcade shall be no less than 15' feet wide and may overlap the
whole width of the sidewalk to within 2 feet of the curb. Permitted
by Special Area Plan.

DESIGN REVIEW CRITERIA
BUILDING DISPOSITION
• Respond to the physical context taking into consideration natural features, existing urban form and Transect Zone intentions.
• For Buildings on Corner Lots, design Facades to acknowledge all Frontages.
• For modifications of nonconforming Structures. See also Article 7, Section 7.2 for specific regulations.
• Create transitions in Height and mass with Abutting properties and Transect Zones.
BUILDING CONFIGURATION
• Articulate the Building Facade vertically and horizontally in intervals appropriate to the existing Neighborhood and Transect Zone.
• Articulate the Building Facade at street level to recognize pedestrian continuity and interest, and at upper levels to recognize long views of Buildings.
• Use architectural styles and details (such as roof lines and fenestration), colors and materials derivative from surrounding area.
• Design Facades that respond primarily to human scale.
• Promote pedestrian interaction.
• Design all walls as active Facades, with doors and windows; when not possible, embellish walls with architectural design treatment.
• Provide usable Open Space that allows for visible and convenient pedestrian access from the public sidewalk.
• Building sites should locate service elements, such as trash dumpsters, utility meters, loading docks, backflow preventers, siamese connections and electrical, plumbing,
mechanical and communications equipment away from a street front. All service elements shall be situated and screened from view to the street and adjacent proper-
ties.
BUILDING FUNCTION & DENSITY
• Respond to the Neighborhood context and Transect Zone.
PARKING STANDARDS
• Minimize the impact of automobile parking and driveways on the pedestrian environment and adjacent properties, especially T3 areas.
• For pedestrian and vehicular safety minimize conflict points such as the number and width of driveways and curb cuts.
• Minimize off-street parking adjacent to a thoroughfare front and where possible locate parking behind the Building.
• Design landscaping or surface parking areas as buffers between dissimilar Uses.
• Screen parking garage structures with Habitable Space. Where Habitable Space is not provided, architectural treatments and landscaping shall screen the garage structure.
LANDSCAPE STANDARDS
• Preserve existing vegetation and/or geological features whenever possible.
• Reinforce Transect Zone intention by integrating landscape and hardscape elements.
• Use landscaping to enhance Building design and continuity of Streetscape.
• Use landscape material, such as plantings, trellises, pavers, screen walls, planters and similar features, to enhance building design and continuity of streetscape.
• Provide landscaping that screens undesirable elements, such as surface parking lots, and that enhances open space and architecture.
SIGN STANDARDS
• Provide signage appropriate for the scale and character of the establishment and immediate Neighborhood.
• Signage shall be within calculated aggregate area appropriate for Transect Zone.
• Signage shall be located below fifty (50) foot height limit along the Building Primary Frontage.
• Number of Signs for an establishment shall not exceed the allowable amount per linear Frontage.
• Monument Signs shall be located within the appropriate Setback and not to disrupt pedestrian activity.
• Illumination and other lighting effects shall not create a nuisance to adjacent property or create a traffic hazard.
AMBIENT STANDARDS
• Provide lighting appropriate to the Building and landscape design in a manner that coordinates with signage and street lighting.
• Orient outdoor lighting to minimize glare to the public realm and adjacent properties.
• Protect residential areas from excessive noise, fumes, odors, commercial vehicle intrusion, traffic conflicts and the spillover effect of light.

AS ADOPTED - JANUARY 2018
6.2 COMMUNITY RESIDENCES AND SIMILAR HOMES/FACILITIES
The purpose of a Community Residence is to integrate its residents into the community; over concentra-
tion of such facilities within a Neighborhood causes the area to lose its character, thereby defeating the
purpose of locating Community Residences in the Neighborhood. AZoning verification shall be required
in order to confirm State established distance requirements outlined in this section. All such facilities
shall be required to provide a signed and sealed survey to the Office of Zoning which demonstrates that
the distance limitations required below pursuant to state statutes are met. Failure to comply with this
requirement will deem the facility in non-compliance with state and City regulations.
To the extent applicable by state law, location of a facility may be denied if it results in an over concen-
tration of Community Residences in proximity to the site selected such that the nature and character of
the Neighborhood would be substantially altered. Any facility exceeding the thresholds outlined in this
section shall refer to the requirements of Community Support Facility.

provided that such homes shall not be located within a radius of one -thousand (1,000) feet of another existing such home with six or fewer residents. Such homes with six (6)
or fewer residents shall not be required to comply with the notification provisions of this section; provided that, prior to licensing, the sponsoring agency provides the Office
of Zoning with the most recently published data compiled from the licensing entities that identifies all community residential homes within the jurisdictional limits of the City
in order to show that no other community residential home is within a radius of one -thousand (1,000) feet of the proposed home with six (6) or fewer residents. At the time of
home occupancy, the sponsoring agency must notify the City of Miami Office of Zoning that the home is licensed by the licensing entity.

area that allows multifamily, the agency shall notify the Planning Director in writing and include in such notice the specific address of the site, the residential licensing category,
the number of residents, and the community support requirements of the program. Such notice shall also contain a statement from the licensing entity indicating the licensing
status of the proposed assisted living facility or community residential home and specifying how the home meets applicable licensing criteria for the safe care and supervision
of the clients in the home. The sponsoring agency shall also provide to the City the most recently published data compiled from the licensing entities that identifies all assisted
living facilities, adult family -care homes, or community residential homes within the jurisdictional limits of the City. The Office of Zoning shall review the notification of the
sponsoring agency in accordance with Transect regulations.
• Pursuant to such review by the Planning Department, the City may:
1.Determine that the siting of the assisted living facility or community residential home is in accordance with this code and approve the siting. If the siting is approved, the
sponsoring agency may establish the home at the site selected.
2. Fail to respond within sixty (60) days. If the City fails to respond within such time, the sponsoring agency may establish the home at the site selected.

result in a combination of such homes with other residences in the community, such that the nature and character of the area would be substantially altered. A home that is
located within a radius of twelve -hundred (1,200) feet of another existing community residential home in a multifamily zone shall be an over concentration of such homes that
substantially alters the nature and character of the area. A home that is located within a radius of five -hundred (500) feet of a property designated T3R or T3L substantially
alters the nature and character of the area.
4. All distance requirements in this section shall be measured from the nearest point of the existing home or property designated T3-R or T3-L to the nearest point of the
proposed home.
If agreed to by both the City and the sponsoring agency, a conflict may be resolved through informal mediation. The City shall arrange for the services of an independent
mediator or may utilize the dispute resolution process established by a regional planning council pursuant to Fla. Stat. s. 186.509. Mediation shall be concluded within forty-
five (45) days of a request therefore. The resolution of any issue through the mediation process shall not alter any person's right to a judicial determination of any issue if that
person is entitled to such a determination under statutory or common law.

The permits that may be necessary to develop property under the Miami 21 Code include the follow-
ing: Warrant; Waiver; Exception; Variance; and amendment to the Code (including text amendments,
rezoning and Special Area Plans). The permits are illustrated in Article 7, Diagram 14. In addition,

are zoning approval (by right), certificate of use, planning determination, or zoning interpretation.
Permits issued in error shall convey no rights to any party. The Zoning Administrator shall require
corrections to be made unless construction has commenced on that portion of the construction that

7.1.2.1 Permitted Uses
A building permit for those permitted Uses as set forth in Article 4, Table 3 of this Code shall be ap-
proved By Right when the Use meets all of the applicable standards of the Miami 21 Code, and the

been obtained indicating that the application meets the applicable provisions of the Miami 21 Code.
Upon an affirmative finding by the Zoning Administrator that plans and application submitted are
complete and in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Miami 21 Code, an approval
shall be entered on the application and on the applicable building permit and, if otherwise lawful,
the permit shall be issued to the applicant, together with one copy of the approved plan. If the

the application shall not be approved and the applicant notified in writing of the reasons for such
decision, with citation to the legal authority for any denial of a permit.
b. Certificate of Use
1. For new or altered Structures and Uses.
No person shall Use or permit the Use of any Structure or premises hereafter created,
erected, changed, converted, enlarged or moved, wholly or partly, in Use or in Structure,
until a Certificate of Use reflecting Use, extent, location, and other matters related to Miami
21 Code shall have been issued to the owner or tenant. Application shall be made to the
Zoning Administrator on forms provided therefore. The Zoning Administrator shall issue the
Certificate of Use (or to approve its issuance where final responsibility for issuance lies with
other officers or agencies) if he finds that all the requirements of this Miami 21 Code have
VII.15
MIAMI 21 ARTICLE 7. PROCEDURES AND NONCONFORMITIES
AS ADOPTED - JANUARY 2018
been met, and to withhold such certificate (or to prohibit its issuance) unless he finds that all
of the requirements of this Miami 21 Code have been met. If the Certificate of Use is denied,
the denial shall provide a citation to the legal authority for any denial. No Certificate of Use
is necessary for fewer than three (3) Single -Family Structures, attached or detached, on a

conforming Use at the time of the adoption of this Miami 21 Code, may apply for a Certificate
of Use certifying that such Use is lawful under this Code. The Zoning Administrator if neces-
sary shall inspect to determine the facts in the case and to either issue the certificate if the
administrator finds the Use lawful, or to withhold the certificate and take such remedial action
as is appropriate if the administrator finds otherwise. A denial shall include a citation to the
legal authority for the denial.

are pending.
c. Zoning Approval or Certificates of Use issued by the Zoning Administrator on the basis of plans
and applications authorize only the Use, arrangement, and construction set forth in the approved
plans and applications, subject to any conditions or safeguards attached thereto, and no other.
Use, arrangement, or construction at variance with that authorized, or failure to observe condi-
tions and safeguards, shall be deemed a violation of this Miami 21 Code.
7.1.2.2 City Request for Planning Determination of Use
Where there is substantial doubt as to whether a particular Use, or classes of Uses not specifically
identified in the Miami 21 Code are of the same general character as those listed as permitted, by
Warrant or by Exception, the Planning Director shall make a written determination in the matter. The
Planning Director shall give due consideration to the intent of this Miami 21 Code concerning the
Transect Zone involved and the character of the Use in question.
Requests for such determinations shall be made only by officers or agencies of the City and may
originate during the permit process. However, such requests shall not involve those circumstances
where the Zoning Administrator has made a negative finding on a zoning interpretation, in which case
appeal may be taken to the Planning, Zoning and Appeals Board and then to the City Commission,
as set forth in section 7.1.2.3.

Upon making the determination, the Planning Director shall notify any other officer or agency of
the city likely to be affected by such ruling and all NET offices. Additionally, notice of the deter-

VII.16
MIAMI 21 ARTICLE 7. PROCEDURES AND NONCONFORMITIES

or characteristics of Use are of unusual or transitory nature, or are unlikely to recur frequently,
and unless his determination is reversed on grounds of error on appeal to the Planning, Zoning
and Appeals Board or the City Commission, the determination shall thereafter be binding on
all officers and agencies of the city as an administrative ruling, and without further action on or
amendment to the Miami 21 Code.
Where the Planning Director finds, in making the determination, that the particular Use or class of
Use or characteristics of Use are likely to be common or recurrent, and that omission of specific
reference in the Miami 21 Code is likely to lead to public uncertainty and confusion, the Direc-
tor shall initiate a proposed amendment to the Miami 21 Code to rectify the omission. Until final
action has been taken on such proposed amendment, the determination of the Director shall be
binding on all officers and agencies of the city as an interim administrative ruling.

7.1.2.7 Variance
a. Variance defined; limitations.
A Variance is a relaxation of the terms of the Miami 21 Code, and is permitted only in those ex-
ceptional circumstances when such action will not be contrary to the public interest and where,
owing to conditions peculiar to the property and not the result of actions of the applicant, a
literal enforcement of the Miami 21 Code would result in unnecessary and undue hardship on
the property. A Variance shall be authorized only for Lot size, Lot Coverage, dimensions of side
or rear Setbacks, parking and loading requirements, and Open Space requirements. Variances
shall be prohibited for anything not included in the listing above, except as specifically provided
by this Code. A Variance from the terms of the Miami 21 Code shall not be granted unless and
until every mitigating measure to offset the impact of the relaxed requirement can be shown to
have been taken.
Regulations of this Miami 21 Code that are not eligible for adjustment by Variance may be eligible
for administrative Waiver. See section 7.1.2.5.
Unachievable maximum Density, Height, or floor -plate, nonconforming Use of neighboring lands,
Structures or Buildings in the same Transect, and permitted Use of lands, Structures or Buildings
in any other Transect, shall not be considered grounds for the granting of a Variance.
b. Criteria for approval.
An application for a Variance shall be approved only if it demonstrates all of the following:
VII.25
MIAMI 21 ARTICLE 7. PROCEDURES AND NONCONFORMITIES

ing involved and that are not applicable to other lands, Structures, or Buildings in the same
Transect;
2. The special conditions and circumstances do not result from the actions of the applicant;
3. Literal interpretation of the provisions of the Miami 21 Code deprives the applicant of rights
commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same Transect Zone and results in unnecessary
and undue hardship on the applicant;
4. Granting the Variance requested conveys the same treatment to the individual owner as to
the owner of other lands, Buildings or Structures in the same Transect Zone;
5. The Variance, if granted, is the minimum Variance that makes possible the reasonable Use
of the land, Building, or Structure; and
6. The grant of the Variance is in harmony with the general intent and purpose of the Miami 21
Code, and is not injurious to the Neighborhood, or otherwise detrimental to the public.
7. The Variance if granted, is consistent with the applicable criteria as set forth in Article 4, Table
12 as such relates to the particular location for which the Variance is being sought.
c. Prior to submitting an application for a Variance under this Code, the prospective applicant shall
meet with the Zoning Administrator and the Planning Director in a preapplication meeting to
obtain information and guidance as to matters related to the proposed application.

include a citation to the legal authority for any denial of a Variance.
3. Conditions and safeguards.
In any Variance, the Planning, Zoning and Appeals Board may prescribe appropriate mitigating
conditions and safeguards in conformity with the Miami 21 Code. Violation of such conditions

Commission, as a de novo hearing, and as set forth in section 7.1.5 of this Miami 21 Code. The

7.1.2.8 Amendment to Miami 21 Code
a. Successional Zoning. The City's growth and evolution over time will inevitably require changes
to the boundaries of certain Transect Zones. These changes shall occur successionally, in which
the zoning change may be made only to a lesser Transect Zone; within the same Transect Zone
to a greater or lesser intensity; or to the next higher Transect Zone, or through a Special Area
Plan. All changes shall maintain the goals of this Code to preserve Neighborhoods and to provide
transitions in Intensity, Density, Building Height and Scale.
1. When a CI zoned property ceases to be used for Civic functions, the successional rezoning
is determined by identifying the lowest Intensity Abutting Transect Zone, and rezoning to that
Zone's next higher Intensity Zone.
2. For a property of nine (9) acres or more, a successional change shall require a Special Area
Plan as described in Article 3.
3. For all successional zoning changes of less than nine (9) acres, refer to the table below.

of this Code.
1. Miami 21 Atlas amendments (also referred to as a "rezoning", including Special Area Plans)
may only be applied for at two times of the year, which times shall be set yearly by the City

be exempt from the twice yearly schedule. The Planning, Zoning and Appeals Board shall
make recommendations to the City Commission for such amendments to the Miami 21 Code.
2. Every two years, the City may conduct a comprehensive review of the Miami 21 Atlas to
evaluate the development direction of the City's neighborhoods and determine if additional
amendments are appropriate.
3. Amendments to the text of the Miami 21 Code (including tables and diagrams) may be made
only upon application of a city official and may be considered at any time during the year.
c. Applications for rezoning (Miami 21 Atlas amendment).

Transect boundary, no rezoning of land shall be considered which involves less than forty
thousand (40,000) square feet of land area or two hundred (200) feet of street Frontage on
one (1) street. Applications for rezoning may be made by:
(a) The City Commission;
(b) The Planning, Zoning and Appeals Board;
(c) Any other department, board or agency of the City;
(d) Any person or entity other than those listed in (a) through (c), above, provided that only
the owner(s) or their agent(s) may apply for the rezoning of property.
2. Applications for rezoning made pursuant to (d) above shall be made on an application form
as provided by the City which shall require, at a minimum, the following information:
(a) Location of the property, including address and legal description
(b) Survey of the property prepared by a State of Florida registered land surveyor within six
(6) months from the date of the application, including acreage.

(e) Present zoning of the property and Future Land Use designation of the property.
(f) At least two photographs that show the entire property.
(g) An analysis of the properties within a one-half mile radius of the subject property regarding
the existing condition of the radius properties and the current zoning and Future Land Use
designations of the radius properties. The analysis shall include photos of Building eleva-
tions of both sides of the street extending three hundred (300) feet beyond all boundaries
of the site. An aerial photo of the site and the radius properties shall be included. The
VII.29
MIAMI 21 ARTICLE 7. PROCEDURES AND NONCONFORMITIES

analysis shall explain why the zoning change is appropriate and why the existing zoning
is inappropriate, in light of the intent of the Miami 21 Code and particularly in relation to
effects on adjoining properties.
d. Review of application for code amendments by Planning Director.
1. The Planning Director shall review each application for a code amendment and provide a
recommendation and a statement in regard to how each of the criteria of this Code is met
or not met. In the case of rezonings, the Director shall additionally review the application in

7.1.2.8.f are met.
2. A non -City applicant for rezoning shall obtain a Zoning Referral by the Zoning Administrator,
and meet with the Planning Director and Zoning Administrator in a preapplication meeting
prior to the applicant's submission of a preliminary application for rezoning. The Director shall

Planning, Zoning and Appeals Board, the City Commission shall hold at least two advertised
public hearings on the proposed code amendments. Notice shall be given as follows:
The City shall notify all owners of property within five hundred (500) feet of the Property
Line of the land for which the hearing is required, by certified mail, of the time and place of
the rezoning hearing by the City Commission at least ten days in advance of the hearing. In

shall not be adopted except by the vote of at least three members of the City Commission.
The City Commission may, by a vote of not less than three (3) members, approve the rezon-
ing of property to a Transect Zone of less Intensity than that applied for in situations where,
in the opinion of the commission and upon the recommendation of the Planning Director,
the specific rezoning applied for would work to the detriment of the health, safety or welfare
of the surrounding Neighborhood, whereas a rezoning to a Transect Zone of less Intensity
would not.
In no event shall a rezoning be issued prior to thirty (30) days from the time the notice of the
application is provided to the NET office. The decision of the City Commission shall include
an explanation of the code requirements for an appeal of the decision and shall be provided

of Table 12. Except for minor modifications, the plan may be amended only pursuant to the
procedures and standards established for its original approval.
d. Modifications to special permits and Variances approved under a previous code.
1. An applicant may modify a special permit approved under a previous zoning code, as a minor

not to be minor, and variances may be modified according to the following procedures:

permit), applying the standards of the previous code for all phases. Where those changes to
an approved phased Special Permit to the greatest extent possible conform to the standards
of this Code, the review shall be conducted by Warrant; otherwise the review of the changes
shall be conducted as an Exception. The owner of property which has a previously approved
phased Special Permit nonetheless may choose to submit a new application for approval
pursuant to the Miami 21 code.

activity is the subject of an ongoing city enforcement procedure, or is the subject of a notice of viola-
tion of a state law or county ordinance where the business enterprise is located or is to be located,
unless the subject of the application would cure the outstanding violation. Failure to comply with

Hearing Boards and the Department of Finance and comply with any code enforcement viola-
tions and satisfy any outstanding liens, if applicable, due to the City.
7.1.7.3 Approval
No Building Permit shall be issued until the required Unity of Title has been approved by the Zoning
Administrator, as to Zoning requirements, in a legal form acceptable to the City Attorney and upon
proper recording in the Miami -Dade County Public Records at the Owner's sole expense.
7.1.7.4 Release
Any Unity of Title required by this section shall not be released, except as specified in the legal
instrument used to record said Unity of Title. Any Unity of Title agreement which does not contain
a release clause or procedures for release, may be released by the Zoning Administrator, in a form
acceptable to the City Attorney, upon a determination by the Zoning Administrator that the Unity of
Title is no longer necessary (i.e. a release may be proper due to a replat of the properties united or
the removal of any encroachments which necessitated the unity). In the absence of such a deter-
mination, the Unity of Title shall be released only by resolution of the City Commission. Releases
approved pursuant to this section shall be recorded in the public records of Miami -Dade County,
Florida, at the property owner's sole expense.
7.1.7.5 Recording
The owner shall be solely responsible for the costs of recording the Unity of Title in the Public Records
of Miami -Dade County. The Owner shall also be responsible for an administrative fee of $3.50 which
shall be payable to the City upon submission of the Unity of Title to the Office of Zoning.
7.1.7.6 Covenant in lieu of Unity of Title
Whenever a Unity of Title is required, pursuant to this section, a covenant in lieu thereof shall be
acceptable provided that said covenant conforms to all of the following requirements:
a. Where multiple Buildings on a single site exist, or for properties which contain multiple owners
on a single site, the City may accept a covenant in lieu of Unity of Title. The acceptance of said
covenant shall require the approval of the Zoning Administrator and any other City officials that
may be required by the Zoning Administrator. The acceptance of a covenant in lieu of Unity of
Title will not constitute a subdivision of land for purposes of this article. The Zoning Administrator
shall evaluate the request for submittal of a covenant in lieu of Unity of Title and the informa-
tion supplied with regard to its impact on the community. In evaluating the request, the Zoning
Administrator may confer with representatives of other departments or agencies, as may be
necessary.
b. If a negative impact on the community exists, the request for submittal of the covenant in lieu of
Unity of Title shall be denied.
c. If no negative impact on the community exists, the Zoning Administrator may approve the cov-
enant in lieu of Unity of Title.
VII.47

d. In determining whether a negative impact on the community exists, the Zoning Administrator
shall review:
1. The off-street parking and loading facilities related to adjacent streets, including ingress and
egress to the subject property, with particular importance on pedestrian safety, convenience,
internal traffic flow and control, arrangement in relation to access in case of fire or other
emergency, and screening and landscaping.
2. The utilities on the subject property.
3. The maintenance of the subject property.
e. A covenant in lieu of Unity of Title shall not be accepted for residential properties in T3 Transects
(Single Family and Two -Family Residential).
f. The covenant in lieu of Unity of Title, approved for legal form and sufficiency by the City Attor-
ney, or designee, shall run with the land and be binding upon the heirs, successors, personal
representatives and assigns, and upon all mortgagees and lessees and others presently or in
the future having any interest in the property. The covenant in lieu of Unity of Title shall contain
the following elements:
1. That in the event of multiple ownership subsequent to the approval of the covenant in lieu
of Unity of Title, each of the subsequent owners shall be bound by the terms, provisions
and conditions of the covenant. The owner shall further agree not to convey portions of the
subject property to such other parties unless and until the owners and such parties shall
have executed and mutually delivered, in recordable form an instrument to be known as an
"easement and operating agreement" which shall include, but is not limited to:
(a) Easements in the common area of each parcel for ingress to and egress from the other
parcels;
(b) Easements in the common area of each parcel for the passage and parking of vehicles;
(c) Easements in the common area of each parcel for the passage and accommodation of
pedestrians;
(d) Easements for access roads across the common area of each parcel to public and private
roadways;
(e) Easements for the installation, use, operation, maintenance, repair, replacement, reloca-
tion or removal of utility facilities in appropriate areas in each such parcel;
(f) Easements on each parcel for construction of buildings and improvements in favor of
each other parcel;
(g) Easements upon each parcel in favor of each adjoining parcel for the installation, use,
maintenance, repair, replacement and removal of common construction improvements
such as footing, supports and foundations;

AS ADOPTED - JANUARY 2018
g.
(m) Appropriate agreements between the owners of the several parcels as to the obligation to
maintain and repair all private roadways, parking facilities, common areas and common
facilities and the like.
These instruments or portions may be waived if approved by each of the directors of the
Public Works Department, the Planning Department, the Building Department, and the Of-
fice of Zoning, or their designees, if the provisions are inapplicable to the subject property.
In addition, the instruments shall contain such other provisions with respect to the operation,
maintenance and development of the property as the parties may agree. Such provision may
be modified or amended by such parties (or the applicable association governing such par-
ties) without approval or joinder by the directors, or their designees, if it will be constructed,
conveyed and operated in accordance with an approved site plan. The multiple owners may,
by mutual agreement, allocate among themselves and the parcels owned by them, setbacks,
parking, open space, floor area and similar governmental requirements, and these allocations
shall be honored in connection with requests for future site plan changes.
2. The covenant in lieu of Unity of Title shall be in effect for a period of thirty (30) years from
the date the documents are recorded in the public records of Miami -Dade County, Florida,
after which time it shall be extended automatically for successive periods of ten (10) years,
unless released in writing by the Owners with approval by the Zoning Administrator. With
respect to any portion of the subject property over which a condominium, homeowners or
other similar association then exists, the instrument of amendment, modification or release
shall be executed by such association (in accordance with its governing documents) in lieu
of the fee owners of such portion of the subject property. For modifications, amendments,
or releases, joinder is required by each of the directors of the Public Works Department, the
Planning Department, the Building Department, and the Office of Zoning, or their designees
to execute the instrument of amendment, modification or release upon the demonstration
and affirmative finding that the Covenant is no longer necessary to preserve and protect the
property for the purposes herein intended.
The remaining requirements as discussed in this Article concerning a Unity of Title shall also ap-
ply to a covenant in lieu of a Unity of Title.
7.1.7.7 Recorded agreements between parties superseded by covenants in lieu of Unity of Title
Whenever a covenant in lieu of Unity of Title is drafted which makes specific reference to and pro-
vides new conditions, requirements and limitations for any characteristic or aspect of use pertaining
to the subject property, such new covenant shall supersede any other existing agreements regulating
such matters, or shall be accepted as a substitute for any agreements required from the applicant
pertaining to joint or shared facilities.

7.2 NONCONFORMITIES: STRUCTURES; USES; LOTS; SITE IMPROVEMENTS; AND SIGNS
7.2.1 Generally
a. Definition
b.
A nonconformity as used in this Code is an existing Use, Structure, Lot or site improvement that
is in compliance with the zoning regulations that were applicable to it when it was established,
and for which all required permits were issued, but which does not conform in whole or in part to
the regulations of this Code. Such nonconformity is legal and may continue except as regulated
by this section.
1. A nonconformity may also be created where the lawful use of eminent domain or an order of
a court of competent jurisdiction has affected the lawfully existing Use, Structure, Lot or site
improvement in a way so that the property does not comply with this Code. In this instance,
the nonconformity is legal and may continue except as regulated by this section.
2. A change in tenancy, ownership, or management of a nonconforming Use, Structure, Lot or
site improvement shall not be construed to create a nonconformity, provided the change is
otherwise lawful and in compliance with this Code.
Intent concerning nonconformities generally.
It is the intent of this Code that nonconformities may continue but are not encouraged to expand
or enlarge, and once they cease they may not be re-established, except under the terms of Sec-
tion 7.2.
c. The existence of nonconformity shall not be used as a reason to add new Uses, Structures, or site
improvements that are not allowed by the regulations of the Transect Zone in which it is located.
d. The temporary or illegal Use of property shall not be sufficient to establish the existence of a
nonconformity or to create rights in the continuation of a nonconformity until it shall come into
compliance with the regulations of this Code.
e. If at any time a nonconforming Structure, or any Structure containing a nonconforming Use,
becomes unsafe or unlawful by declaration of the City of Miami, Miami -Dade County Unsafe
Structures Board, or other government agency having jurisdiction, the Structure shall not there-
after be restored or repaired and the Use shall not be reestablished except in conformity with
the regulations of the Transect Zone in which it is located.
7.2.2 Structures and Uses in the Event of Disaster
a. Single -Family Residences, Duplexes and Multi -Family Structures
In the event of a natural disaster, explosion, fire, act of God, or the public enemy, the Zoning

VII.50
MIAMI 21 ARTICLE 7. PROCEDURES AND NONCONFORMITIES
AS ADOPTED - JANUARY 2018
duplex or multi -family structures to the same or decreased nonconformity as existed immediately
prior to the disaster, upon proof satisfactory to the Zoning Administrator of the configuration of the
prior Single -Family Residence, duplex or multi -family structures, and only in compliance with the
Florida Building Code. An application for reconstruction of the Single -Family Residence, duplex
or multi -family structures shall be filed within twelve (12) months of the event of its destruction,
unless the City Commission authorizes the Zoning Administrator to extend the twelve (12) month
time period city-wide.
b. All Other Structures
1. Where a nonconforming Structure is destroyed by natural disaster, explosion, fire, act of
God, or the public enemy, the Zoning Administrator may, by Waiver, allow the replacement
or reconstruction of the nonconforming Structure in whole or in part upon finding that the
Waiver criteria of this Code and the criteria of paragraph 2 below are met.
2. Criteria for approval. Replacement or reconstruction may be permitted if the following find-
ings are made.
(a) The cause of destruction was not the deliberate action of the owner of the Structure or
his agents.
(b) The replacement or reconstruction is reasonably necessary to allow the conforming Use
of the Structure.
(c) The replacement or reconstruction meets the Florida Building Code.
3. An Application for the reconstruction or repair shall be filed within a period of twelve (12)
months from the date of the destruction unless the City Commission authorizes the Zoning
Administrator to extend the twelve (12) month time period city-wide.
c. Nonconforming Uses
1. The restoration of a nonconforming Use within a Structure that is destroyed by natural di-
saster, explosion, fire, act of God, or the public enemy, may be approved by Warrant. The
Use must be restored in a conforming Structure or Structure approved by Waiver, and of
equal or lesser size and on the same Lot. The approval shall further find that the criteria of
paragraph 2 below are met.
2. Criteria for approval. The restoration of the nonconforming Use may be permitted if all of the
following are found to be met:
(a) The cause of destruction was not the deliberate action of the owner of the Structure or
his agents; and
(b) Nothing contained in the provisions of this Code or the City Code requires termination of
such nonconforming Use; and
(c) There is substantial public advantage in continuance of the nonconforming Use; and
VII.51
MIAMI 21 ARTICLE 7. PROCEDURES AND NONCONFORMITIES
AS ADOPTED - JANUARY 2018
(d) Replacement or reconstruction in the manner proposed, with related actions imposed
in conditions and safeguards, will reduce any previous adverse effects of the Use on
neighboring properties; and
(e) The Use will not be enlarged or intensified.
3. The application for restoration shall be filed within twelve (12) months of destruction and be
diligently carried to completion. Unless restoration is so initiated and completed, the noncon-
forming Use shall terminate and not be resumed.
7.2.3 Alterations and Expansion of Nonconforming Structures
a. Single -Family Residences and Duplexes
1. Interior alterations to a nonconforming Single -Family Residence or duplex for interior work
such as repairs or interior remodeling shall be allowed.
2. Alterations, additions, repairs and maintenance to a nonconforming Single -Family Residence
or duplex shall be permitted as long as there is no enlargement of any nonconformity that
affects the exterior of the Building or premises.
3. Where alteration, addition, repair or maintenance enlarges a nonconformity affecting the
exterior of the Building or premises, the enlargement may be permitted by Waiver from the
Zoning Administrator.
b. All other Structures
1. Less than fifty percent (50%) of square footage of Structure.
Alterations which enlarge the nonconformity of a nonconforming Structure to an extent of
less than fifty percent (50%) of the total square footage of the nonconforming Structure may
be permitted by Exception from the Planning, Zoning and Appeals Board.
2. Fifty percent (50%) or more of square footage of the Structure.
A nonconforming Structure may be altered to enlarge the nonconformity of the Structure by
fifty percent (50%) or more of the total square footage of the nonconforming Structure only
if the Structure thereafter conforms to the Transect Zone in which it is located.
c. Computation of alterations
The extent of alteration will be calculated to include the sum of all alterations over a period of
three consecutive years.
d. Expansion, repairs, remodeling and maintenance that do not enlarge the nonconformity of a
nonconforming Structure
All expansions, repairs, remodeling and maintenance that do not enlarge the nonconformity of
the Structure are permitted consistent with the Florida Building Code.

7.2.4 Moving a Nonconforming Structure on the Same Lot
A nonconforming Structure may be moved on the same Lot only pursuant to an Exception. In addi-
tion to satisfying the Exception criteria, the following criteria apply:
a. The proposed movement must reduce the degree of nonconformity to the maximum extent rea-
sonably feasible, or eliminate the nonconformity;
b. The Structure shall in no case be moved in such a manner as to increase the degree of noncon-
formity; and
c. Where a nonconforming Structure is moved to a location not on the same Lot, the Structure and
all new construction shall thereafter conform to the regulations for the Transect Zone to which it
is moved.
7.2.5 Locally Designated Historic Resources—Nonconformities
a. Definition
A locally designated historic resource is a Building or Structure listed in the Miami Register of
Historic Places that has been deemed individually significant for its contribution to Miami's his-
tory and sense of place; or is a part of a locally designated historic district where the individual
Building or Structure is deemed to add to the historic architectural qualities or historical associa-
tions, and the Building or Structure has been so designated through the formal public process
provided in Chapter 23 of the City Code.
b. Generally
Nonconforming locally designated historic resources shall be subject to the regulations of this
section, except as they may be granted certain waivers or an exception for preservation purposes
by the Historic and Environmental Preservation Board pursuant to Chapter 23 of the City Code.
7.2.6 Nonconforming Uses
a. Time Limitation
Where, at the effective date of adoption or amendment of this Code, a lawful Use exists which
would not be permitted under this Code, the Use may be continued for twenty (20) years from the
date the Use first became legal noncomforming and consistent with the regulations of this section.
The Use shall not be allowed to continue automatically upon expiration of the twenty (20) years.
Upon application, the City Commission may grant by Exception an extension for continuance of
the Use for an additional term of up to twenty (20) years. However, accessory parking abutting
T3-R areas that were approved as transitional Uses under prior zoning codes and were legally
nonconforming prior to the adoption of this Code will not have a continued automatic twenty-year
(20) extension as provided in this section, but shall instead seek an Exception before the City
VII.53
MIAMI 21 ARTICLE 7. PROCEDURES AND NONCONFORMITIES
AS ADOPTED - JANUARY 2018
Commission within sixty (60) days of renewal of a Certificate of Use.
b. Legally established alcoholic beverage establishments, having a valid Certificate of Use or certifi-
cate of occupancy and all other required permits, may continue in existence despite subsequent
establishment of a church or school within the distance limitations of Chapter 4 entitled "Alcoholic
Beverages" of the City Code.
c. Replacement and Expansion of Structures that Contain Nonconforming Use
1. No enlargement, extension, replacement, or reconstruction of an existing Structure which
contains a nonconforming Use shall be permitted except to change the Use to a conforming
Use, except as provided below:
(a) Interior Arrangement
A nonconforming Use may be extended throughout any parts of a Structure which was
clearly designed or arranged for the nonconforming Use at the time that the Use became
nonconforming. If a portion of a Structure was unoccupied or not manifestly designed for
the nonconforming Use, the Use may not be expanded within the Structure.
(b) Alterations to the extent of less than fifty percent (50%) of the square footage of a Struc-
ture containing a nonconforming Use
Where an alteration of a Structure containing a nonconforming Use is less than fifty percent
(50%) of the square footage of the Structure at the time of alteration, the nonconforming
Use may be permitted to continue pursuant to an Exception.
(c) Exterior
No nonconforming Use which exists outside a Structure shall be extended to occupy more
area than was occupied at the time the Use became nonconforming, except as approved
by Exception and to comply with the non Use regulations of the Transect in which it is
located. In this case, the occupancy of the new location shall be construed as remaining
a nonconforming Use.
2. Extending / Transferring the Nonconforming Use
No nonconforming Use shall be extended to occupy any other Structure on the same Lot
or parcel if the other Structure was not used for the nonconforming Use at the time the Use
became nonconforming.
3. Subdivision or structural additions
Structures used for nonconforming Uses shall not be subdivided, nor shall any Structures
be added on the premises, except for conforming Uses and Structures.
d. Discontinuance or Abandonment of a nonconforming Use
If, for a period of more than six (6) months, a nonconforming Use is documented as being dis-
VII.54
MIAMI 21 ARTICLE 7. PROCEDURES AND NONCONFORMITIES
AS ADOPTED - JANUARY 2018
continued or a Certificate of Use for a nonconforming Use lapses, any subsequent Use shall
conform to the regulations of this Code. Provided, however, the time period shall not include any
time during which the discontinuance is caused by governmental action which impedes access
to the premises.
7.2.7 Nonconforming Lots
a. Nonconforming Lot
A nonconforming Lot may continue and may be used as provided by this section. A noncon-
forming Lot is one shown on the latest recorded plat or described by deed, both as recorded in
the public records of Miami -Dade County, which met the width, length and area requirements in
effect when the Lot became of record, and which Lot would not conform to the requirements of
this Code.
b. Street or alley closure
When a Lot has become nonconforming due to a street or alley vacation or closure, the Lot may
be modified pursuant to an approval by the Director of the Public Works Department as long as
the degree of nonconformity created by the vacation or closure is not increased.
c. Rules concerning combinations of contiguous nonconforming Lots in the same ownership and
with common Frontage for T3 Transects only.
1. Combinations required
(a) If two or more Lots, or combinations of Lots and portions of Lots, with continuous Front-
age in the same ownership exist at the time of passage or amendment of this Code, and
if all or part of the Lots do not meet the requirements for Lot width and area, the lands
involved shall be considered an "undivided parcel" for the purposes of this Code. Except
as provided below in paragraph c.2., no portion of an undivided parcel shall be used or
sold in a manner diminishing compliance with general Transect requirements for Lot
width and area.
(b) The undivided parcel shall be considered one Lot for which only one Single -Family Resi-
dence or duplex may be constructed, regardless of how many nonconforming Lots make
up the parcel.
(c) A unity of title, or covenant in lieu of unity of title, which complies with all applicable
requirements of the City Code shall be required on all undivided parcels prior to the is-
suance of any building permits, including demolition permits.
2. Exceptions to the combination requirement
Notwithstanding paragraph c.1, where nonconforming Lots with continuous Frontage in the
same ownership exist at the time of passage or amendment of this Code, such Lots may be
developed individually, in accordance with the applicable code requirements and pursuant
to a Waiver, if such Lots individually comply with any of the following exceptions.
VII.55
MIAMI 21 ARTICLE 7. PROCEDURES AND NONCONFORMITIES
AS ADOPTED - JANUARY 2018
(a) Duplex Lots restricted to Single -Family Residences
The owner of two or more adjoining nonconforming duplex Lots must by covenant (in a
form acceptable to the City Attorney) restrict the Use of the Lots to the development of
no more than one Single -Family Residence per Lot and must comply with all Miami 21
Code requirements except for minimum Lot width.
(b) The ninety percent (90%) rule
The Lots must individually comply with ninety percent (90%) of the requirements for Lot
width, area, and Principal Front Setback under the Miami 21 Code regulations.
(c) The one thousand (1,000) feet radius rule
The width or size of such nonconforming Lots must be equal to or larger than the majority
of the existing Building sites within the same Transect Zones and either within a minimum
one thousand (1,000) foot radius of the nonconforming Lot perimeter, or extending no fur-
ther than the immediate vicinity, whichever is less. "Building site" shall mean a Lot, group
of Lots or parcel upon which a Single -Family Residence or duplex is located. "Immediate
vicinity" shall mean either an area in which a parcel of land is located that is physically,
functionally or geographically identifiable as a distinct realm, place or neighborhood, or
an area within a radius of one-half mile from the nonconforming Lot, whichever is smaller.
7.2.8 Nonconforming Site Improvements
Where nonconforming site improvements exist, such as Off-street Parking and loading, access,
fences, walls, lighting, landscaping, or similar site improvements, such nonconformities may continue
and the site may be altered only as provided below.
a. No change shall be made in any nonconforming site improvement which increases the noncon-
formity. Changes may be approved by Waiver, if the changes result in the same or a reduced
degree of nonconformity
b. Except in a T3 or T4-R Transect Zone or within an area of the City for which a parking trust fund
has been established and is in effect pursuant to Chapter 35 of the City Code, where existing
Off-street Parking is nonconforming to the requirements of this Code or any other City standards
to any Use permitted in the Transect Zone, Adaptive Use, shall not require the provision of ad-
ditional parking or on -site storm water retention or detention. If the prior Use of such structure
was single-family, duplex, or lodging and the site abuts a T3 Transect Zone, the provision of
additional parking shall be required as per the requirement of this Code. No modifications may
be permitted which increase the degree of the existing nonconformity. Modifications to Off-street
Parking may be approved by Waiver, and the Waiver may be conditioned on safeguards that
reduce the degree of nonconformity to the extent reasonably feasible in the circumstances of
the case.

ARTICLE 8. THOROUGHFARES
8.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This article describes the guidelines for development of Thoroughfares throughout the City. It supplements
the design standards adopted in the City of Miami Manual of Engineering Standards for Design and
Construction, maintained in its most current form at the City of Miami Department of Public Works.
Where these guidelines conflict with the Manual, the standards of the Manual shall apply.
The urban landscape is characterized by a set of interdependent elements that create a sense of place.
These include Thoroughfare type, Building type, Frontage type, and the form and disposition of landscape
and lighting. Thoroughfares provide the City with both the major part of public Open Space as well as
moving lanes for vehicles, bicycles and transit. A Thoroughfare is associated with a particular type of
movement, and is endowed with two attributes: movement type and character. The movement type of
the Thoroughfare refers to the number of vehicles that can move safely through a segment within a
given time period; it is physically manifested by the number of lanes and their width, by the centerline
radius, the curb radius, and the super -elevation of the pavement. The character of the Thoroughfare
refers to its suitability as a setting for pedestrian activities and is physically manifested by the associated
Frontage types as determined by location within the Transect.
Thoroughfares can be assigned appropriately to Transect Zones, with calibrated Right -of -Way widths,
movement types, design speed, number of travel lanes, pavement width, curb radius and Verge type.
In Zones T3 and T4, D1, D2 and D3, generally sidewalks occur at the edge of the Right -of -Way. In Zones
T5 and T6, sidewalks occur at the edge of the Right -of -Way and are given the additional dimensions of
the 10 foot setback in the First Layer.
The following additional assumptions govern the Thoroughfares shown here:
• To clear sight lines for drivers, Visibility Triangles shall be required as described in Article 3,
Section 3.8.4.1
• Pavement widths are measured inside of curb to inside of curb.
• Curb and gutter may range from 1'-6" for City Thoroughfares to 2'-0" for some County
Thoroughfares.
• Parking spaces range from 7'-0" to 9'-0" including pan; they should be wider on higher speed
Thoroughfares but may be restricted by existing Right -of -Way dimensions.
• Right turns may be taken from the parking lane.
• Tree spacing is 22' on centerto match parallel parking or25' on centerto match Lot Line spacing.
• Tree planters have a minimum dimension of 4' x 4', increased where possible to a 4' x 8'
dimension.
• Bulb -outs may be added where Thoroughfare widths are wide and design speed high, or where
sidewalks are narrow, in order to facilitate pedestrian safety.
Thoroughfares must evolve with the needs of the City. As Miami continues to grow, a Thoroughfare
may change in character reflecting new density, or conversely, a return to an historic dimension. For
instance, a continuous lawn planter may be replaced with individual tree wells for additional sidewalk
space, or a wide neighborhood street may be narrowed to control traffic intrusion.
The accommodation of bicycles and transit requires detailed response to the existing Thoroughfare
condition and thus is not illustrated specifically here.

ARTICLE 9. LANDSCAPE REQUIREMENTS
9.1 INTENT AND PURPOSE
It is the intent of this article to establish minimum landscape standards for the City of Miami that enhance,
improve and maintain the quality of the landscape, and to:
a. Promote Florida Friendly landscaping principles through the use of drought tolerant plant species,
grouping of plant material by water requirements, the use of irrigation systems that conserve
the use of potable and non potable water supplies and restrictions on the amount of lawn areas.
Florida Friendly landscape principles also promote planting the right plant in the right place and
appropriate fertilization and mulching.
b. Use landscape material, specifically street trees, to visually define the hierarchy of roadways,
and to provide shade and a visual edge along roadways.
c. Prevent the destruction of the City's existing tree canopy and promote its expansion.
d. Provide for the preservation of existing Natural Forest Communities and specimen sized trees
in conformance with existing City and County codes, as may be amended from time to time; re-
establish native habitat where appropriate, and encourage the appropriate use of native plant
materials in the landscape.
e. Promote the use of trees and shrubs for energy conservation by encouraging cooling through
the provision of shade and the channeling of breezes, thereby helping to offset global warming
and local heat island effects through the added absorption of carbon dioxide and reduction of
heat islands.
f. Contribute to the processes of air movement, air purification, oxygen regeneration, ground water
recharge, and stormwater runoff retention, while aiding in the abatement of noise, glare, heat,
air pollution and dust generated by major roadways and intense use areas.
g•
Improve the aesthetic appearance of commercial, industrial and residential development through
the use of appropriate plant materials, thereby protecting and increasing property values within
the City, and protecting designated historic landscapes.
h. Reduce the negative impacts of exotic pest plant species and prohibit the use of noxious exotic
plants which invade native plant communities.
i. Promote the use of trees to protect and buffer the effects of high winds on structures.
j•
Promote proper landscaping methods and selection of plant materials to avoid problems such
as clogged sewers, cracked sidewalks and power services interruptions.

10.1 . GENERAL
10.1.1 PURPOSE
The purpose of this section is to provide a comprehensive system of regulations for Signs visible from
the public right-of-way and to provide a set of standards designed to optimize communication and design
quality of Signs. Through these regulations, the City of Miami will uphold the United States Constitution
and State of Florida Constitution, conserve and protect scenic beauty, regulate signage for the purpose
of visual clutter, and preserve the aesthetic character of the City. In addition, special permits which may
have been approved under previous Ordinance 11000 or under previous sections of this ordinance may
also contain conditions that regulate Signs on certain properties. No Signs or advertising devices of any
kind or nature shall be erected or maintained on any premises or affixed to the inside or outside of any
Structure to be visible from the public right-of-way except as specifically provided for by these regulations.
10.1.1.1 INTENT:
a. Promote the effectiveness of Signs by preventing their improper placement, deterioration and
excessive size and number.
b. Regulate and control Signs and Sign Structures in order to prevent property damage and per-
sonal injury resulting from improper construction or poor maintenance.
c. Promote the free and safe flow of traffic and protect pedestrians and motorists from injury and
property damage attributable to cluttered, distracting, or illegal signage.
d. Control and reduce visual clutter and visual blight.
e. Prevent any deleterious effects arising from the unrestricted use of Signs by providing a reason-
able, flexible, efficient, comprehensive and enforceable set of regulations that will foster a high
quality, aesthetic, visual environment for the City, enhancing it as a place to live, visit and do
business.
f. Assure that public benefits derived from expenditures of public funds for the improvement and
beautification of streets and other public Structures and Open Spaces shall be protected by
exercising reasonable control over the character and design of Sign Structures.
g. Address the business community's need for adequate business identification and advertising
communication by improving the readability, and therefore, the effectiveness of Signs by prevent-
ing their improper placement, over -concentration, excessive Height, area, and bulk.
h. Coordinate the placement and physical dimensions of Signs within the different Transects.
i. Protect property values, the local economy, and the quality of life by preserving and enhancing
the appearance of the Streetscapes that affect the image of the City.
j. Acknowledge the differing design concerns and needs for Signs in certain specialized areas
such as tourist areas.
X.5
MIAMI 21

3. In the case of an Illuminated Sign, a reverse channel letter that silhouettes the Sign against
an Illuminated Building face is desirable. Illumination of a Sign should be accompanied by
accent lighting of the Building's distinctive Architectural Features and especially the Facade
area surrounding the Sign. Illuminated Signs on unlit Buildings shall not be allowed.

10.3.7 Special Sign Package
The purpose of a Special Sign Package is to allow buildings exceeding 200,000 square feet of commercial
or office gross leasable Building Floor Area, mixed use developments over four (4) stories (excluding
residential uses), entertainment establishments and Civil Support Uses exceeding 200,000 square feet
of Building Floor Area to allow greater flexibility in Sign regulations to result in a higher or specialized
quality design. It is important that Sign designs preserve the characteristics of the surrounding community
and create a Sign package that will contribute to the character of the area. Specific Sign standards may
be exceeded for various Sign types with the exception that the total Aggregate Area is not exceeded.
Comprehensive signage proposals for Special Sign Package may only be permitted by Warrant. Ag-
gregate Areas that exceed Table 15 Sign Design Standards may be permitted only by Exception.
10.3.8 Regional Activity Complex Sign Package
Comprehensive signage proposals for Regional Activity Complexes may only be permitted by Exception.
Proposed Aggregate Area shall not exceed three (3) square feet for each linear foot of wall fronting on
a street. In determining whether an Exception should be granted, the PZAB shall consider the following
guidelines as well as Article 4, Table 12:
a. Certain deviations from the Sign standards and areas otherwise applicable may be considered
within comprehensive signage proposals for Regional Activity Complexes. Specific Sign criteria
may be waived to achieve specific objectives commensurate with the facility's regional purpose,
size, bulk and scale.
b. Signs should respect the Architectural Features of the Structure and be sized and placed subor-
dinate to those features. Overlapping of functional windows, extensions beyond parapet edges
obscuring architectural ornamentation or disruption of dominant Facade lines are examples of
Sign design problems considered unacceptable.
c. The Sign's color and value (shades of light and dark) should be harmonious with Building ma-
terials. Strong contrasts in color or value between the Sign and Building that draw undue visual
attention to the Sign at the expense of the overall architectural composition shall be avoided.
d. In the case a Sign is Illuminated, a reverse channel letter that silhouettes the Sign against a
lighted Building face is desirable. Illumination of a Sign should be accompanied by accent lighting
of the Building's distinctive Architectural Features and especially the Facade area surrounding
the Sign. Illuminated Signs on unlit Buildings are unacceptable. The objective is a visual lighting
emphasis on the Building with the lighted Sign as subordinate. Automatic electric changing Signs
acceptable under the Miami -Dade County Code Section 33-96.1 may be reviewed for compliance
under this Section.
e. Feature lighting of the Building, including exposed light elements that enhance Building lines, light
sculpture or kinetic displays that meet the criteria of the Miami Dade County art -in -public places
under Miami -Dade County Code Section 2-11.15, shall not be construed as Signage subject to
these regulations.

Adopted Little Haiti/Lemon City Design Guidelines
See attached.
CITY OF MIAMI PLANNING DEPARTMENT
HISTORIC LEMON CITY/ LITTLE HAITI CREOLE DISTRICT DESIGN GUIDELINES
Lemon City, though never incorporated, was one of the earliest settlements in the Miami area, with its history dating
back to c. 1870, when pioneers rushed to claim their share of land offered by the federal government through the
Homestead Act. E.H. Harrington named the area for the lemon trees growing on his property, and the first use of the
name "Lemon City" is recorded by the County in 1889. Lemon City grew as a result of the naturally occurring deep
water port located at the Bay and what is now NE 61st Street. By 1896 with the arrival of the Florida East Coast
Railway, Lemon City prospered with its main industries farming, fishing and shipping. By the 1920s Lemon City
became a prime location for tourist camps. These camps, or parks, often had cabins for the thrifty "tin can" tourists
who vacationed in Florida. One of these cabin courts, called "Magic City" remains today. One other building, the
drugstore and medical office of Dr. John Gordon Du Puis, built in 1902 at 6041 NE 2nd Avenue also remains of the
once prospering community. The City of Miami annexed Lemon City in 1925.
Decades later the former Lemon City community saw its share of emigres, particularly from Haiti. The infusion of this
culture has brought a new and vibrant "personality" to the area. The intent of these design guidelines is to influence
future public and private development to respect and enhance the character of Lemon City and the Haitian culture of
Little Haiti as a desirable place to live, work, and recreate. Access to Little Haiti Park shall be important for all
pedestrians, including elderly and children. The main goals and strategic actions contained in the Miami Design
District and Little Haiti Creole District Planning Study completed in November 1998, is to encourage revitalization
focused on arts and design, strong urban character, and the area's importance as a commercial mixed use core for
the surrounding residential neighborhoods. The intent encourages mixed -use structures with activities that generally
serve the retailing, service, and housing needs.
The Historic Lemon City/Little Haiti Creole District shall include all properties along NE 2nd Avenue between 52nd and
71st Streets. These guidelines will apply architectural and design standards to this highly visible area strategically
located along NE 2nd Avenue, to protect against inappropriate, discordant or incongruent design. The design
standards will encourage appropriate development for the community character and conservation of its unique
cultural and historic heritage. This District is one of Miami's cultural gateways into the city and should be conserved
and enhanced in a manner consistent with the heritage of the Haitian Caribbean island culture. The guidelines will
assist in insuring that future development and redevelopment activity along the NE 2nd Avenue corridor respects this
character and compliments the scale and variety of uses within the neighborhood. This unique blend of retail, office
and residential uses characterize NE 2nd Avenue as a special urban neighborhood with a high volume of pedestrian
activity.
The architecture associated with Haiti is characterized as "French -Creole", a unique mixture of cultural traditions that
reflect French and Spanish building traditions. Haiti, occupied by both the Spanish and the French, is also fiercely
independent and with its own vernacular traditions synthesized a unique architectural type. Buildings within the area
described in these guidelines shall be built to respect this culture, tradition, and architecture. The following guidelines
will help to produce an aesthetic cultural idenitity:
(1) Buildings shall be designed with the Carribean climate in mind and complementing the Carribbean-French Creole
designed facades reminiscent of the Haitian culture and community's desired appearance.
(2) Chain link fencing shall not be placed in the first layer adjacent to NE 2nd Avenue; unless it is of a temporary
nature.
EXHIBIT G
Criminal Background Hiring Standards
See attached.
Exhibit G
Criminal Background Hiring Standards
The Developer (for purposes of this Exhibit G, also including its contractors and sub -contractors)
will analyze the criminal background record of a potential candidate for construction -related
employment on a case -by -case basis where the candidate's record contains an indication of the
following: (i) adjudication of guilt; (ii) no action; (iii) nolle prosequi; (iv) withhold of adjudication;
and (v) suspended entry of sentence. The Developer will make an individualized assessment of
the information provided by the applicant.
An individualized assessment generally shall consist of: (i) the employer informing the potential
candidate that they may be excluded from employment at the SAP because of past criminal
conduct; (ii) providing the candidate an opportunity to demonstrate that the exclusion does not
properly apply to him or her; and (iii) a review and assessment of whether the additional
information provided by the potential candidate shows that the prior conviction, violation or
alleged criminal wrongdoing is not job -related or inconsistent with business activity.
The potential candidate's showing may include information that the candidate was not correctly
identified in the criminal record or that the record is otherwise inaccurate. Other relevant
individualized evidence considered by the Developer in its review of record of criminal
wrongdoing includes, but is not limited to:
• The facts or circumstances surrounding the actual or alleged offense or conduct;
• The number of offenses for which the individual was arrested and/or convicted;
• Older age at the time of conviction, or release from prison;
• Evidence that the individual performed the same type of work, post conviction, with same
or a different employer, with no known incidents of criminal conduct;
• The length and consistency of employment history before and after the offense or
conduct;
• Rehabilitation efforts (e.g., education/training);
• Employment or character references and any other information regarding fitness for a
particular position; and
• Whether the individual is bonded under federal, state or local bonding programs.
If the individual does not respond to the Developer's attempt to gather additional information
about their criminal background, the Developer may make its employment decision without the
information.
The Developer considers the following criminal offenses to be illustrative of "job -related" or
"inconsistent with business necessity" offenses:
49199161;2
• Aggravated Assault, per s. 784.021, Florida Statutes (2018).

Dear Mr. Worth:

MCD Miami, LLC is proposing a mixed -use redevelopment generally bounded by NE 64th Street to the
north, NE 59th Terrace to the south, Florida East Coast (EEC) railway to the east, and NE 2nd Avenue to
the west in Miami, Florida. The parcels proposed for redevelopment are currently occupied by 135,656
square feet of warehouse space and a vacant 265,784 square -foot mobile home park. The proposed
redevelopment consists of 2,208,540 square feet of general office building, 344,548 square feet of retail,
2,630 high-rise apartment units, a 432-room hotel and an 119,610 square -foot automobile storage facility.
The applicant's consultant has provided valid responses to our comments and/or made changes to the
traffic impact study report to address our comments. Results of the analyses demonstrate that the
transportation corridors and intersections in the vicinity of the project site operate at adopted levels of
service during both the A.M. and P.M. peak hours with the exception of the intersection of NW 62nd Street
and I-95 northbound on/off-ramps which is expected to operate at LOS F under future background and
future total conditions during the P.M. peak hour. Please note that FDOT is expected to implement
capacity improvements at the NW 62"d Street and 1-95 interchange with anticipated completion in 2045.
Further note that project traffic results in the equivalent of a 0.1 percent (0.1%) increase in overall
intersection delay from future background conditions.
The project proposes the following roadway improvements:
• Realignment of the two (2) offset, stop -controlled intersections of NE 62"d Street at NE 4'h Avenue
(West) and NE 62"d Street at NE 4'h Avenue (East) with NE 61" Street at NE 4t1r Avenue. The
proposed realignment is expected to provide more direct connectivity along NE 4th Avenue from
NE 62"d Street to NE 60" Street. The proposed realigned segment of NE 4" Avenue between NE
62"d Street and NE 61' Street will provide a three (3) lane section with an exclusive left -turn lane
and an exclusive through lane at the northbound approach at the intersection of NE 62"d Street
and NE 4" Avenue and at the southbound approach at the intersection of NE 61" Street and NE
4th Avenue. The northbound approach is expected to operate at LOS E during the P.M. peak hour
and the southbound approach is expected to operate at LOS D during the P.M. peak hour with the
implementation of this improvement.
• Extension of NE 3`d Avenue from NE 61' Street to NE 59" Terrace. The proposed extension is
expected to provide more direct connectivity along NE 4" Avenue from. NE 62"d Street to NE 60`h
Street.
Page 2 of 2
• The southbound approach at the intersection of NE 62'd Street and NE 4th Avenue will be
reconfigured to provide one (1) through lane and one (1) exclusive right -turn lane (245 feet).
Please note that right-of-way is not required for this improvement as on -street parking is
provided along the west side of NE 4th Avenue just north of NE 62nd Street. The southbound
approach is expected to operate at LOS C during the P.M, peak hour with the implementation of
this improvement,
• The westbound approach at the intersection of NE 60th Street and NE 2nd Avenue will be
reconfigured to provide one (1) exclusive left -turn lane (325 feet) and one (1) exclusive right -turn
lane. The westbound approach at the intersection of NE 60th Street and NE 2nd Avenue is
expected to operate at LOS E + 50% during the P.M. peak hour with the implementation of this
improvement.
A signal warrant analysis was conducted at the realigned intersections of NE 62nd Street at NE 4th Avenue
and NE 61" Street at NE 4t' Avenue. The results of the signal warrant analysis indicate that a signalization
of the intersections is not recommended as they do not satisfy vehicular volume Warrant 1A, Warrant 1B,
the combination of Warrants IA and 1B, nor Warrant 2.
The applicant has proposed to undertake Transportation Control Measures (TCMs) to reduce the impact
of project traffic on the surrounding roadways and promote the use of alternate modes of transportation.
The development approval should be conditioned upon these TCMs being implemented:
• The applicant has committed to providing secure bicycle parking (bicycle racks/lockers).
• The applicant has committed to providing transit information within the site including
route schedules and maps,
• The applicant has committed to providing designated scooter/motorcycle parking spaces.
• The applicant has committed to providing a Citibike station or bike rentals.
• The applicant has committed to providing improved, enhanced (wide) sidewalks around
the site.
• The applicant has committed to providing a taxi/shared-ride drop-off/pick-up area.
• The applicant has committed to providing bicycle lanes within the project area including
along the NE 4th Avenue realignment and the NE 3rd Avenue extension.
• The applicant will maintain/provide bus shelters at bus stops immediately adjacent to
project property subject to City of Miami and Miami -Dade County Department of
Transportation and Public Works approval.
We would like to proceed issuing this sufficiency letter.

Adopted Little Haiti/Lemon City Design Guidelines

SUBSTITUTED.
CITY OF MIAMI PLANNING DEPARTMENT
HISTORIC LEMON CITY/ LITTLE HAITI CREOLE DISTRICT DESIGN GUIDELINES
Lemon City, though never incorporated, was one of the earliest settlements in the Miami area, with it history dating
back to c. 1870, when pioneers rushed to claim their share of land offered by the federal govern► ent through the
Homestead Act. E.H. Harrington named the area for the lemon trees growing on his property, an• the first use of the
name "Lemon City" is recorded by the County in 1889. Lemon City grew as a result of the na rally occurring deep
water port located at the Bay and what is now NE 61st Street. By 1896 with the arrival of e Florida East Coast
Railway, Lemon City prospered with its main industries farming, fishing and shipping. the 1920s Lemon City
became a prime location for tourist camps. These camps, or parks, often had cabins fo the thrifty "tin can" tourists
who vacationed in Florida. One of these cabin courts, called "Magic City" remains t••ay. One other building, the
drugstore and medical office of Dr. John Gordon Du Puis, built in 1902 at 6041 N nd Avenue also remains of the
once prospering community. The City of Miami annexed Lemon City in 1925.
Decades later the former Lemon City community saw its share of emigres, pa► cularly from Haiti. The infusion of this
culture has brought a new and vibrant "personality" to the area. The intent .f these design guidelines is to influence
future public and private development to respect and enhance the chara r of Lemon City and the Haitian culture of
Little Haiti as a desirable place to live, work, and recreate. Access o Little Haiti Park shall be important for all
pedestrians, including elderly and children. The main goals and s ategic actions contained in the Miami Design
District and Little Haiti Creole District Planning Study completed ' November 1998, is to encourage revitalization
focused on arts and design, strong urban character, and the ar:.'s importance as a commercial mixed use core for
the surrounding residential neighborhoods. The intent encour.•es mixed -use structures with activities that generally
serve the retailing, service, and housing needs.
The Historic Lemon City/Little Haiti Creole District shinclude all properties along NE 2nd Avenue between 52nd and
71st Streets. These guidelines will apply architect .I and design standards to this highly visible area strategically
located along NE 2nd Avenue, to protect agar t inappropriate, discordant or incongruent design. The design
