PZ-20-801 7 04/06/22 The property is centrally located within the Highland Park neighborhood, which is well defined, bounded by State Road 836 to the north, the Miami River to the south and west, and Interstate 95 to the east. NW 7th Ave is the main north -south arterial for the neighborhood. The Property is located within two blocks of the Culmer Metrorail station, which places it within a Transit Oriented Development (TOD) area and just south of the Health District. The Properties are also close to east -west arterials such as NW 10 St, NW 11 St, and NW 14 St, which offer easy access to employment centers in Downtown and Edgewater. Miami Dade Transit bus service offers countywide accessibility from a stop directly in front of the Properties. The Subject Property is situated near the Southeast Overtown / Park West Community Redevelopment Area. It is across the street from BookerT. Washington High School. The Culmer Metrorail Station is less than half a mile away from the Subject Property. The area is well served by the City of Miami's Trolley and Miami -Dade County's Metrobus. The map below shows the area and the transit service that is available in the surrounding area: Subject Site and Surrounding Context Page 2 of 12 This eubmRfal need, to be schedule, fora pueoc hearing in accordance whh timelines set forth in the City of \Miami Cole.

PZ 20 8017 EXISTING FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION(S) The existing Future Land Use (FLU) designation for the Subject Property is "Light Industrial." The Future Land Use Map Interpretation of the MCNP describes this designation as follows: Areas designated as Light Industrial allow all activities included in the Restricted Commercial and General Commercial designations, as well as wholesaling and distribution activities that generally serve the needs of other businesses; generally, require on and off-loading facilities; and benefit from close proximity to general commercial areas. These commercial activities (beyond those permitted in the Restricted Commercial and General Commercial designations) include retailing of second hand items, new and used vehicle sales, parking lots and garages, wholesaling, warehousing, light manufacturing and assembly and other activities whose scale of operation and land use impacts are like those uses described above. This category also allows commercial marinas and living quarters on vessels for transients. This land use category shall not permit storing, packaging, handling, processing or distribution of explosive, flammable or otherwise hazardous materials; scrap yards; and health clinics. The hazard level of an activity shall be one of the determining factors as to whether that activity shall be permissible within a Light Industrial district; the detailed provisions of the applicable land development regulations shall prohibit high-level hazard activities within live/work developments. PROPOSED FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION(S) The proposed FLU designation for the Subject Property is "Restricted Commercial." The Future Land Use Map Interpretation describes this designation as follows: Areas designated as Restricted Commercial allow residential uses (except rescue missions) to a maximum density equivalent to High Density Multifamily Residential subject to the same limiting conditions and a finding by the Planning Director that the proposed site's proximity to other residentially zoned property makes it a logical extension or continuation of existing residential development and that adequate services and amenities exist in the adjacent area to accommodate the needs of potential residents; transitory residential facilities such as hotels and motels. This category also allows general office use; clinics and laboratories, auditoriums, libraries, convention facilities, places of worship, and primary and secondary schools. Also allowed are commercial activities that generally serve the daily retailing and service needs of the public, typically requiring easy access by personal auto, and often located along arterial or collector roadways, which include: general retailing, personal and professional services, real estate, banking and other financial services, restaurants, saloons and cafes, general entertainment facilities, private clubs and recreation facilities, major sports and exhibition or entertainment facilities and other commercial activities whose scale and land use impacts are similar in nature to those uses described above. This category also includes commercial marinas and living quarters on vessels as permissible. The nonresidential portions of developments within areas designated as Restricted Commercial allow a maximum floor lot ratio (FLR) of 7.0 times the net lot area of the subject property; such FLR may be increased upon compliance with the detailed provisions of the applicable land development regulations; however, may not exceed a total FLR of 11.0 times the net lot area of the subject property. Properties designated as Restricted Commercial in the Edgewater Area allow a maximum floor lot ratio (FLR) of 17.0 times the net lot area of the subject property. Properties designated as Restricted Commercial in the Urban Central Business District and Buena Vista Yards Regional Activity Center allow a maximum floor lot ratio (FLR) of 37.0 times the net lot area of the subject property. All such uses and mixes of uses shall be subject to the detailed provisions of the applicable land development regulations and the maintenance of required levels of service for facilities and services included in the City's adopted concurrency management requirements. Nonresidential floor area is the floor area that supports nonresidential uses within the inside perimeter of the outside walls of the building including hallways, stairs, closets, thickness of walls, columns and other features, and parking and loading areas, and excluding only open air corridors, porches, balconies and roof areas.

PZ-20-801 7 04/06/22 The subject property is located within Census Tract 12086003001. According to the American Community Survey (ACS), 5-year estimates (2015-2019), the Median Household Income for the Tract is $32,823, which is three percent lower than the Median Household Income in the City of Miami, and it is 44 percent lower than the Area Median Income of $59,100. Approximately 20 percent of the population living in the subject Census Tract live below the poverty line. This is lower than the same statistic for every surrounding Tract, which have percentages of population living in poverty ranging from 23 percent to almost 50 percent. Most of the residents in this Census Tract also rent the homes in which they live (80.22 percent). The Median Rent in the area is $897. Table 2 below summarizes the information about this Census Tract.[11 Table 2. Summary of Census Data for Subject Topic Number of Households Tract: 12086003001 Data[21 1,168 Number of Housing Units 1,671 Median Household Income $32,823 (City of Miami: $33,999) Percent of People under the Poverty Line 20.76% Percent of Households that rent 80.22% Median Rent $897 (53.26% Rental cost burdened) Unemployment Rate 3.94% NEIGHBORHOOD CONTEXT: GEOSPATIAL ANALYSIS The maps and tables below illustrate and inventory the Future and Existing Land Uses within a study area encompassing a quarter -mile around the subject properties. The first set shows the Future Land Uses within the study area. Visible on the map is the fact that "Restricted Commercial" consists of the majority of the designated study area, particularly to the west and immediate south. "Major Institutional, Public Faclities, Transportation, and Utilities" also consists of a considerable amount of area, to the east and on the north side of the 836 expressway. The south part of the study area contains areas of "Medium Density Multifamily Residential", as well as a small sliver of "Single Family Residential" within the Spring Garden neighborhood.

PZ-20-801 7 04/06/22 The table below inventories all of the Future Land Use designations within the study area. "Restricted Commercial" and "Major Institutional, Public Facilities, Transportation, and Utilities", both intensive designations allowing a variety of uses, consist of almost three quarters of the study area. Less dense, all -residential FLU designations consist of less than 20 percent of the study area. Table 3.

CLUCs reveal information about existing land uses. Within this study area, we observe that there are 671 address points, the majority of which have high density multi -family uses or low -intensity residential uses. There are institutional uses and traces of retail/commercial uses that emerge with some patterns, particularly surrounding the central residential area, adjacent to the Health District, 1-95, and towards Overtown.

PZ-20-801 7 04/06/22 Table 4, below, inventories the existing land uses within the study area. Strikingly the area shows a high rate of vacancy, with 122 vacant addresses. While they area spread throughout the neighborhood, as shown on the Existing Land Use map above, there is a high concentration within the blocks immediately to the west and north. Though the most abundant Future Land Use designation, "Restricted Commercial", allows a high density of residential development and a high intensity of commercial uses, "Commercial/Retail" uses only consist of 2.8 percent of the study area's addresses.

PZ-20-801 7 04/06/22 Site Visit On September 29, 2021, Planning staff visited the neighborhood to observe the site and its surrounding conditions. Staff conducted the site visit on a weekday morning after rush hour, so traffic was relatively light along the main NW 7 Ave corridor. Below are photographs taken during that visit.

This building shown was constructed in 2019. The green space on the right side of the photo is City -owned parks and recreation space. Page 8 of 12 The Planning Department tested levels of service as required for this application. The Leve testing assumes the population will increase from 281 persons to 1,180 persons on the subj analysis does not take into consideration the possibility of density bonuses that might be permi comprehensive plan, subject to limitations in the applicable land development regulations. Schools On November 17, 2020, Miami -Dade County Public Schools submitted its findings that it had tested the proposed change of land use and zoning and found that the school system has sufficient capacity to serve the application for the elementary, middle and high school levels. A final determination of school concurrency and capacity reservation will only be made at the time of approval of final plat, site plan or functional equivalent. Recreation and Open Space The MCNP requires a 10-minute %-mile barrier -free walk to a park entrance to meet public Levels of Service (LOS). The Planning Department conducted an analysis in GIS to test the LOS for this proposal and found that, with the increase in population, it meets LOS standards. Potable Water The MCNP LOS standard for potable water services is 92.05 gallons per capita per day (PCPD). Consumption is assumed to be approximately 22,736 by residential uses; however, LOS standards do not take into consideration the consumption of non-residential uses. Sanitary Sewer Transmission The MCNP LOS standards for Sanitary Sewer is 141 GPCD. The MCNP does not require testing of this County service.

The appllratle bsision-malangb ly will rexe.le information at the pubne hewing to render a recommendat on or a final decislon. PZ-20-801 7 04/06/22 Solid Waste Collectior The City's LOS standard for Solid Waste is 1.28 tons/resident/year. The Franchise Agreement the City maintains provides flexibility to address fluctuations in solid waste production. Transportation The MCNP has updated its LOS standards for the City with the most recent update of the Transportation Element. In the April 2020 concurrency review for this application, the Office of Capital Improvements acknowledged that the difference in PM Peak Hour trips is estimated to be approximately 65 and the difference in daily trips is estimated to be 766. The applicant is not required to provide a plan for mitigating these trips at this time; however, a transportation plan will be required when development plans are submitted. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ANALYSIS The following is an analysis of the application relative to the Goals, Objectives, and Policies of the MCNP. Criteria 1 Analysis 1 Finding 1 Future Land Use Policy LU-1.6.4: "Any proposal to amend the City's Zoning Atlas that has been deemed to require an amendment to the Future Land Use Plan Map by the Planning Department, shall require a level of service (LOS) review and a finding from the Planning Department that the proposed amendment will not result in a LOS that falls below the adopted minimum standards described in Policy CI-1.2.3, and will not be in conflict with any element of the MCNP. Based on its evaluation, and on other relevant planning considerations, the Planning Department will forward a recommended action on said amendment to the Planning Advisory Board, which will then forward its recommendation to the City Commission." When the City tested Levels of Service, Miami -Dade County Public Schools responded indicating that there is adequate capacity at all school levels. Furthermore, the Office of Capital Improvements indicated that the application, as tested increases Peak Hour Trips by 65 and daily trips by 766. At the time of redevelopment, a traffic study will be required, in addition to coordination with FDOT, as the site would impact SR 7. The Planning Department recommends increased awareness of the decreasing capacity within elementary and middle schools within the City due to increasing residential projects. With proper implementation of R-07-0717, the Interlocal Agreement to implement public school concurrency, capacity should be properly addressed through cooperation with Miami -Dade County Page 9 of 12 Public Schools. This policy is Consistent. o Criteria 2 Transportation Policy TR-1.1.1: "As an Urban Infill Area (UIA) and/or a Transportation Concurrency Exemption Area (TCEA) established by Mia County, Laws and Regulations, and illustrated in Appendix TR-1, Map TR Th" MN Data and Analysis, the City will encourage the concentration and intensific. development around centers of activity with the goal of enhancing the livab residential neighborhoods, supporting economic development, and the viabil T commercial areas. Infill development on vacant parcels, adaptive reuse of und- land and structures, redevelopment of substandard sites, downtown revitalizatior development projects that promote public transportation will be heavily encourag (See Policy LU-1.1.11.)" Analysis 2 This area shows a high rate of vacancy. The Culmer Metrorail Station is located i the Subject Property. Several Miami -Dade County bus routes and City of Miami t run services near the site. With these services in place, the area is well -suited fo intense, mixed -use development. Additionally, the Subject Properties are in very proximity to the Health District, which boasts many employment opportunities. Finding 2 Consistent Criteria 3 Future Land Use Policy LU-1.1.3: "The City's zoning ordinance provides for prc of all areas of the city from: (1) the encroachment of incompatible land uses; (2) adverse impacts of future land uses in adjacent areas that disrupt or degrade pul health and safety, or natural or man-made amenities;(3) transportation policies t divide, or fragment established neighborhoods; and (4) degradation of public opE space, environment, and ecology. Strategies to further protect existing neighborh through the development of appropriate transition standards and buffering requir will be incorporated into the City's land development regulations." Analysis 3 The MCNP has an awareness that land development should be done in a cohes manner. To this end, the current zoning ordinance implements this policy most n1 with the principle of successional zoning. As the subject properties are surround( Future Land Use designations that are either identical to, or of a development int similar in nature to, the request, the requested designation would not create a sit in which new development would encroach on lesser intensity areas. In fact, the current pattern of Future Land Use designations positions the existinc Industrial properties between Restricted Commercial, which have largely develor a strongly residential neighborhood (as indicated by the existing land use inventc with supportive institutional uses such as public schools. Light Industrial can exis immediate proximity to residential and non -Light Industrial land uses without delE effects or the degradation of quality of life. This corridor, however, would be best oriented to respond to and serve the immediately surrounding neighborhood, witl existing mostly -residential character and opportunity for greater intensity of mixei development on the plethora of vacant properties. Finding 3 Consistent Criteria 4 Transportation Policy TR-2.1.3: "The City will encourage increased density of development within walking distance of transit corridors and Metrorail stations (a referenced in Policy LU-1.1.10. and HO-1.1.9)" Transportation Policy TR-2.1.4: "The City will ensure a strong interface betwee (re)developments and the public transportation system by encouraging Multimoi Design Guidelines listed below that emphasize improved connectivity between tr facilities and (re)developments and incorporate a balanced streetscape design K to consider the following: A. Encouraging development of a wide variety of residential and non -resider land -uses and activities in nodes around rapid transit stations to produce trips, minimize transfers, attract transit ridership, and promote transit opei and financial efficiencies.

Increase the density of development within walking distance of rapid transit stations in a manner appropriate to the particular setting of each transit station and existing abutting residential neighborhoods are to be protected and preserved..." Analysis 4 The subject properties are located in very close proximity to the Culmer Metrorail station. Walking distance to the station is approximately 500 feet, taking only a couple minutes. Bus 77 connecting at the Metrorail station provides direct access to Downtown Miami, as well as points north. In addition, the City of Miami Overtown trolley stops immediately adjacent to the site and circulates through Overtown and the Health District. Such close proximity to a premium transit facility with connecting bus and trolley options provides the necessary infrastructure for mixed -use, higher density, and multi -modal neighborhood where residents and employees have multiple modes of transportation from which to choose. While Light Industrial may develop uses that rely on premium mass transit to some degree, Restricted Commercial better complements premium transit facilities with the opportunity for greater residential density and employment opportunities. Additionally, the properties are located along the NW 7 Ave arterial corridor. Harmonizing the land use on these properties with those around them would better unify the corridor radiating out from the Metrorail station, which in turn would better serve future development elsewhere in the neighborhood. Finding 4 Consistent Criteria 5 Transportation Objective TR-1.2: "Encourage the development of an efficient transportation network that minimizes greenhouse gas emissions, vehicle miles traveled, and reduces the demand for parking." Analysis 5 The City of Miami's 2018 Greenhouse Gas Inventory (Attachment 3) found that 41 percent of the City's greenhouse gas emissions came from the transportation sector. Chapter 8 of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's Fifth Assessment Report131 notes the vast reduction in greenhouse gas emissions when switching travel modes from automobiles to transit, walking, and bicycling. Furthermore, research has shown that increases in housing and transit -supportive land uses adjacent to transit typically result in increased transit ridership[41. With Restricted Commercial providing greatly increased allowable residential density and employment opportunities over Light Industrial, there would be more opportunity for transit -supportive uses to be developed on the subject properties, resulting in greater potential decreases in greenhouse gas emissions from transportation. Finding 5 Consistent PZ-20-801 7 04/06/22 RECOMMENDATION This application seeks to change the designation of 0.59 acres of land from "Light Industrial" to "Restricted Commercial." Both designations allow intense uses. "Restricted Commercial" allows a significantly higher density in its residential uses. The Goals, Objectives, and Policies of the MCNP generally incentivize development when those projects are proximal to transit. Levels of service for most facilities are supportive of this application. Miami -Dade County Public Schools shows capacity in elementary, middle, and especially in the high school, located adjacent to the application. Staff recommends approval of this application.

However, climate change is increasing these risks and threatening our health and economy. Miami has led by taking actions to adapt to and mitigate these increasing risks. An equally important step is to understand Miami's contribution to global warming by taking inventory of greenhouse gas emissions produced by the City and its operations. City of Miami's last greenhouse gas inventory was completed in 2008 with baseline years of 2006 for citywide greenhouse gas emissions and 2007 for government operations emissions. That inventory was used to develop the City's first climate action plan, MiPlan. This 2018 inventory will provide the City's first update in over a decade, and likewise will be used to inform a new climate action plan that will lead us towards Mayor Suarez's goal of carbon neutrality by 2050. METHODOLOGY There are national and international standardized protocols on how to conduct greenhouse gas inventories. Below is a summary of the basic data used in the Citywide and Government Operations inventories. Data collected was input into ICLEI Clearpoint software to calculate emission totals. ICLEI (formerly International Council for Local Environmental Issues, now ICLEI - Local Governments for Sustainability) is a global network of more than 1,750 local and regional governments committed to sustainable urban development. The organization is a founding partner of the Global Covenant of Mayors for Climate and Energy, and proprietor of the Clearpath software, a tool used worldwide to conduct greenhouse gas inventories. To read more detail about how each inventory was calculated, read Appendix 1: Methodology Report. Emissions totals are reported using carbon dioxide equivalent (C0 e) which is calculated using the Global Warming Potentials (GWP) for methane and nitrous oxide from the IPCC 5th Assessment Report: GREENHOUSE GAS GLOBAL WARMING POTENTIAL The Global Protocol for Community -scale Greenhouse Gas Emission Inventories (GPC) was used to calculate citywide greenhouse gas emissions. This protocol is the standard used by cities worldwide and required of those in the C40 Cities network. The citywide inventory accounts for emissions from the five Basic Emissions Generating Activities (BEGAs). These activities are: • Use of electricity by the community • Use of fuel in residential and commercial stationary combustion equipment • On -road passenger and freight motor vehicle travel • Use of energy in potable water and wastewater treatment and distribution • Generation of solid waste by the community The citywide inventory also includes the following activities: • Wastewater processing • Fugitive emissions from natural gas leakage The Local Government Operations (LGO) Protocol serves as the national standard, and was used to calculate greenhouse gas emissions generated from the City's operations and services. The following activities are included in the LGO inventory: • Energy and natural gas consumption from buildings & facilities • On -road transportation from employee commute and vehicle fleet Most LGO inventories include data about solid waste generated from government operations. The City's Department of Solid Waste does not currently track waste collected from government facilities separately from overall collections so this emission source was omitted. CITYWIDE EMISSIONS (2018) Total Citywide emissions in the City of Miami in calendar year 2018 were 3,490,318 metric tons (MT) of carbon dioxide equivalent (C0 e). Here is a breakdown of Citywide emissions in MT by sector: 2018 Citywide Emissions Water & Wastewater 1% Solid Waste 5% Industrial 1% 52% of City of Miami's citywide emissions come from 7% of emissions are from solid waste generated and water the electricity and natural gas used to power residential used by residents, and industrial processes. and commercial buildings.

Here is a breakdown of emissions from government operations by sector: 2018 Government Operations Emissions Employee Commute 24% Fleet 8% Facilities and Streetlights 58% Trolleys 7% Vehicle Fleet 11% 58% of City of Miami's government operations emissions come from the electricity and natural gas used to operate buildings and facilities that City of Miami pays utility bills on. The next largest emission generating activity is employee commute, 24%, which was estimated by taking all employee zip codes of residence and calculating roundtrip mileage to Miami Riverside Center. At this time we could not differentiate between travel methods to work so this estimate assumes all employees drive to work. Lastly, gasoline and diesel consumed by city vehicles (both trolleys and all other vehicles) makes up 18% of government operations emissions. The table below details exact emissions from each sector.

It was not possible to directly replicate the process for the 2018 update therefore differences in greenhouse gas emissions can be explained by a number of factors but it is not possible to pinpoint exact activities that led to emission increases and decreases. A detailed methodology report has been created (see Appendix 1), documenting the data sources and processes used to develop the 2018 inventory so direct comparisons will be possible in the future. CITYWIDE EMISSIONS When City of Miami last conducted a Citywide greenhouse gas inventory (2006) the City's population was 404,048 residents and total emissions of carbon dioxide equivalent (C0 e) was 4,800,000 MT. Population increased by 16.5% between 2006 and 2018 to 470,914 residents, meanwhile emissions dropped 27.29% to 3,490,318 MT COze. This means that the City of Miami has met the MiPlan goal early to decrease Citywide emissions by 25% below 2006 levels. The MiPlan goal for Citywide emissions is set for 2020 but 2020 may have to be considered an outlier due to the impacts on "business -as -usual" caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. 2006 Citywide Emissions Solid Waste 3% Industrial 4% 2018 Citywide Emissions Water & Wastewater 1% Solid Waste 5% Industrial 1% Although there is no record of the exact breakdown of the 2006 Inventory, we can calculate values for the general activities and analyze changes over the past decade to hypothesize factors contributing to emissions decrease 2006 SECTOR EMISSIONS (MT CO2E) 2018 EMISSIONS (MT CO2E) EMISSIONS DIFFERENCE (MT CO2E) CHANGE NOTES TRANSPORTATION 1,872,000 1,426,633 -445,367 -23.79% Improvements to Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards during the Obama administration and overall average increase of fuel efficiency of vehicles.

As displayed In the table above, there were emission decreases In very sector except for Solid Wa te. The most significant decrease In emissions, proportionally, came from Industrial Energy. On the other hand, Commercial Energy had the biggest decrease In emissions by quantity.

In 2018, government operations emitted 60,164 MT of COze, 2007 Government Operations Emissions Solid Waste 1% Streetlights 15% Facilities Employee Commute 19% Although there is no record of the exact breakdown of the 2006 Inventory, we can calculate values for the general activities and analyze changes over the past decade to hypothesize factors contributing to emissions which is approximately 1.7% of the City's total emissions. Government operations emissions have decreased 27% since 2007, therefore, the City of Miami has exceeded the goal set out in MiPlan to reduce government emissions by 25% by 2015. 2018 Government Operations Emissions Employee Commute 24% Facilities and Streetlights 58% Fleet 18% decrease. We would need to conduct further research with City leadership to determine operational changes that possibly resulted in emissions decreases. 2006 SECTOR EMISSIONS (MT CO2E) 2018 EMISSIONS EMISSIONS DIFFERENCE CHANGE (MT CO2E) (MT CO2E) NOTES FACILITIES AND STREETLIGHTS FLEET EMPLOYEE COMMUTE SOLID WASTE 44,504 21,428 15,659 824 82,414 34,945 10,620 14,599 N/A 60,164 As displayed In the table above, all sectors of government operations had entlsslons decreases.

Streetlights and buildings emissions combined in 2007 accounted for 54% of emissions whereas streetlights and buildings emissions combined in 2018 accounted for 58% of emissions. Fleet emissions may have decreased due to increased fuel efficiency of vehicles. An employee commute survey was conducted for the 2007 inventory. 2018 emissions due to solid waste were not calculated since Department of Solid Waste does not currently track solid waste collected from government facilities separately from overall collections.

Each category has an emissions reduction goal along with recommended actions the City take to achieve that goal and the City's overall emission reduction goals. While not all actions were implemented over the past decade, many recommendations were realized in some fashion. The top 5 initiatives in MiPlan are: • Increase energy efficiency in buildings • Reduce greenhousegas emissions from energy generation • Reduce emissions from transportation • Implement more efficient land use planning • Begin adaptation planning Here are some actions where the City has made notable progress since MiPlan was released in 2008. ACTION UPDATE INITIATIVE 1: INCREASE ENERGY EFFICIENCY IN BUILDINGS City of Miami is currently working with Miami -Dade County and Miami Downtown Development Authority to develop and implement an energy benchmarking program, Building Efficiency 305 (BE305). Both public and private sectors have been involved in developing this program. ACTION 1-1: FORM AN ALLIANCE TO ADDRESS ENERGY EFFICIENCY IN BUILDINGS. ACTION 1-2: REDUCE ENERGY CONSUMPTION IN EXISTING GOVERNMENT BUILDINGS. During the economic recession in 2008, City of Miami received $4.7 million from the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant Program (EECBG) to conduct energy efficiency retrofits in City buildings. These retrofits resulted in significant reductions in energy use. In addition, many of the City's outdoor lights have been upgraded to LEDs. The BE305 program will help the City track energy use and continue to reduce energy use. ACTION 1-4: REDUCE ENERGY CONSUMPTION IN ALL NEW CONSTRUCTION. Miami21, City of Miami's form based land use code, includes LEED silver requirement for all new construction over 50,000 sq feet as well as expedited permitting and density bonuses for green buildings. It also requires cool roofs on almost all new construction and/or roof replacements. ACTION 1-5: REDUCE THE HEAT ISLAND EFFECT. Miami21 requires new construction to install a cool or green roof and cool pavement technologies. The City has an urban forester on staff to promote tree plantings and maintenance of trees Citywide. ACTION 1-6: EDUCATE THE BUSINESS SECTOR AND THE PUBLIC ON ENERGY EFFICIENCY IN HOMES AND BUSINESSES. The City renovated a former fire station and opened the Miami Green Lab in October 2012. Previously the site was a venue for environmental education and seminars on green building. Additionally, the City is partnered with Dream in Green on related education initiatives. EMISSIONS REDUCTION GOAL: REDUCE BUILDINGS EMISSIONS BY 975,000 MT CO,E FROM 2006 LEVELS BY 2020. While close, the City had not quite met this goal in 2018. In 2018, emissions from the building sector were 783,356 MT COze below 2006 levels. ACTION 2-2. INCREASE THE USE OF RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES. EMISSIONS REDUCTION GOAL: REDUCE EMISSIONS FROM ENERGY GENERATION BY 429,000 MT COzE FROM 2006 LEVELS. City of Miami has expedited permitting and waived permit fees for rooftop solar installation. The City promotes financing options for solar via the Solar United Neighbors Solar Co-op and PACE financing. Lastly, the City is pursuing SolSmart gold certification to further increase ease of solar installation for residents. Unable to determine if emissions reduction goal was met due to a lack of baseline data and methodology. ACTION UPDATE INITIATIVE 3: REDUCE EMISSIONS FROM TRANSPORTATION ACTION 3-1: FACILITATE AND ENCOURAGE ALTERNATIVE MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. ACTION 3-2: INCREASE TELECOMMUTING, COMPRESSED WORKWEEKS AND FLEXIBLE HOURS. EMISSIONS REDUCTION GOAL: REDUCE EMISSIONS FROM TRANSPORTATION BY 565,000 MT COzE FROM 2006 LEVELS BY 2020. ACTION 4-1: ADOPT LAND USE STRATEGIES WHICH ENCOURAGE SMART GROWTH. EMISSIONS REDUCTION GOAL: REDUCE EMISSIONS FROM ENERGY GENERATION BY 429,000 MT COzE FROM 2006 LEVELS. ACTION 5-1: BEGIN PROCESS OF PLANNING FOR CLIMATE CHANGE IMPACTS. City Commission approved the City's Bicycle Master Plan in October 2009. Since then the City has added bike lanes throughout the City including painted, dedicated bike lanes. The City now operates its own free, trolley network with 13 routes and over 5 million rides provided per year. Lastly, the City has partnered with private alternative transit programs including Citibikes and dockless scooters. City departments are free to implement flexible scheduling for their employees. The Fire Department actively uses flexible week scheduling for active firefighters. Coronavirus has shown the viability of many more City employees working from home/ telecommuting. While close, the City had not quite met this goal in 2018. In 2018, emissions from the transportation sector were 445,367 MT COze below 2006 levels. MENT MORE EFFICIENT LAND USE PLANNING Miami21 became the City's effective zoning code in February 2010. The Miami 21 Zoning Code is a Form -Based Code guided by tenets of New Urbanism and Smart Growth principles. Unable to determine if emissions reduction goal was met due to a lack of baseline data and methodology. INITIATIVE 5: BEGIN ADAPTATION PLANNING Climate change is a major component of Citywide long-term planning. Climate adaptation/resilience is a top pillar of the City's strategic plan and the City has its own climate adaptation plan: Miami Forever Climate Ready. COMPARISONS TO OTHER JURISDICTIONS An effective way of comparing emissions across jurisdictions of different sizes is to evaluate differences in per capita emissions. It is important for the City to know where it stands in comparison to other cities to evaluate how much work it UNITED STATES & STATE OF FLORIDA Similarly to City of Miami, national greenhouse gas emissions have been on a decline since the Aughts. As of 2018, net emissions (accounting for carbon sinks) decreased by -10% Emissions (Million MT COe) 8,000 6,000 4,000 2,000 0 will take to reach carbon neutrality by 2050 and determine what strategies are best to achieve this goal. In 2006, City of Miami emissions per capita were 11.57 MT COze and in 2018 they had decreased to 7.41 MT COze. nationally since 2005. The expansion of natural gas and renewable energy production has largely contributed to this national decrease in emissions. Total US Greenhouse Emissions by Gas O m m m m m m m m m 0 0, 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0° 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 However, national per capita emissions were significantly higher than City of Miami - as of 2018, United States per capita emissions were 18.05 MT COze. This disparity is likely due to City of Miami's relative lack of carbon intense activities and fuel sources, as well as its population density. 23.5% of U.S. energy is produced from coal which is more carbon intensive than natural gas, the leading component of Florida Power and Light's fuel mix. In addition, HVAC needs are different in other parts of the Country; many cities are more reliant on heating than cooling and heating is more energy intensive than cooling. City of Miami also does not have commercial agriculture, commercial energy production, or large industry in the City limits, all of which have significant greenhouse gas emissions. The United States has 92 people living per square mile whereas the City of Miami has -13 500. Florida's emissions per capita are much closer to City of Miami's, due to its energy fuel mix statewide and comparatively lower HVAC emissions. In addition, Florida is among the top 10 most densely populated states in the Country equating to lower per capita emissions. In 2017, Florida's per capita emissions were 10.86 MT COze. • HFCs, PFCs, SFs & NF3 • Nitrous Oxide • Methane • Carbon Dioxide • Net Emissions (including sinks) US Sources of Greenhouse Gas Emissions in 2018 Industry 22% Electricity 27% Commercial & Residential 12% Agric 10% Transportation 28% C40 CITIES C40 Cities is a network of 96 cities worldwide, representing economy.

The graph below shows total annual emissions in MT COze for each of these cities in the year they most recently reported their greenhouse gas inventories. This snapshot was taken in early 2020. Maximum 7,196,809 Average_3,746,935— Median 3,606,199 Minimum 967,417 KEY MESSAGES • City of Miami has met the Government Operations goal set out in MiPlan. Government operations emissions were 27% below 2007 levels in 2018. • City of Miami has met the Citywide goal of 25% by 2020 set out in MiPlan. Citywide emissions were 27% below 2006 levels in 2018. • Since MiPlan was released in 2008, a few major initiatives helped paved the way for emissions reductions and a more sustainable City: - Miami21 became effective in early 2010 leading to development around transportation hubs and increased densification in the urban core. - Sustainability requirements and incentives were integrated into Miami21 such as the LEED Silver requirement for new large construction and waived permit fees for rooftop solar. In addition, Florida Building Code improved its energy efficiency standards for new construction. - Creation of and support of low -carbon transit alternatives including scooters, trolleys, and bikes. • City of Miami will use this inventory to inform a greenhouse gas reduction plan aimed at moving the city towards carbon neutrality by 2050. - This greenhouse gas reduction plan will complement the City's climate adaptation plan, Miami Forever Climate Ready. With these two plans, the City will have strategies to address both sides of the climate change challenge. - The plan will also prioritize strategies and actions that promote opportunities for local businesses and job growth. • City of Miami is already working on two programs that will help residents and business owners use energy more efficiently and help lower Citywide emissions: - The Building Efficiency 305 (BE305) energy benchmarking program will require large buildings in the City of Miami to publicly report their energy use and drive efficiency through open -market competition. - The Keep Safe Miami program will provide energy efficiency and weatherization audits for affordable multi -family housing buildings and assist with funding for renovations for 2-3 properties. SOUTHEAST FLORIDA More locally, City of Miami's emissions decline follows a Regional Climate Compact decreased 18%. City of Miami's trend seen regionally. Between 2005 and 2015, emissions change in per capita emissions closely follows that of the in the four counties that make up the Southeast Florida Compact as well. w O U 14 12 10 8 6 4 2 0 Per Capita Emissions Changes Over Time 11 57 9.69 2006 NEXT STEPS Before Now ■ City of Miami ■ SEFRCC The Office of Resilience and Sustainability is in the process of hiring a consultant to help create a data -driven, quantitatively measurable climate action plan that will help deliver on Mayor Suarez's goal of being a carbon neutral City by 2050. This goal is impossible without ambitious, courageous climate action championed by the highest levels of City leadership. In addition, the strategies and actions must deliver multiple benefits including supporting the City's priorities of COVID-19 recovery, fostering a more resilient and inclusive economy and/or existing climate adaptation work (outlined in Miami Forever Climate Ready). It is recommended that the City of Miami complete a citywide greenhouse gas inventory every two years to monitor progress on climate actions and goals. There are a number of policy and protocol changes that could make future inventories easier and more robust. These will also be recommended as part of the Climate Action Plan. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS MI Developing this inventory was an interdepartmental, interjurisdictional effort. A sincere THANK YOU to the following departments and entities for providing us with the data and insight necessary to complete this project: • City of Miami GSA • Miami -Dade County Water & Sewer Department • City of Miami Human Resources • Florida Department of Transportation • City of Miami Resilience and Public Works • Florida Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles • City of Miami Solid Waste • Florida Power & Light • Miami -Dade County Office of Resilience • TECO Energy • Miami -Dade County Department of • Florida City Gas Solid Waste Management And finally, special acknowledgement to Alyssa Hernandez, the intern from Florida International University who spearheaded this initiative.
