INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO: Arthur Noriega V, City Manager
DATE: October 6, 2023 ";
FROM: Lakisha Hull, AICP, LEED AP BD+C SUBJECT: Substitution of PZ 3 — MCNP EAR
Planning Director
This substitution memo requests to amend PZ 3 scheduled on the City Commission October 12, 2023
agenda. The item (File ID 14508) is an ordinance to amend the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood
Plan (MCNP) to incorporate amendments associated with the Evaluation and Appraisal Review (EAR) as
required by Florida Statutes. Please visit :
www.floridaiobs.orq/communitv-planning-and-development/programs/community-planning-table-of-
contents/evaluation-and-appraisal-of-comprehensive-plans
Through this process, the Planning Department conducted outreach that included mailers,
advertisements, emails, community meetings, posters, website, social media, flyers, door -knocking, and
walk-ins. In addition to the legislative file for PZ 3, other reference materials and community engagement
information are available online:
www.miami.gov/My-Government/Deoartments/Planning/Comprehensive-Planning-Main-Page/Miami-Envision-2035
As a follow-up to the Planning, Zoning and Appeals Board's three public meetings and one City
Commission meeting on this item, the Planning Department requests to conduct a separate community
planning process for the two Residential Density Increase Areas (RDIAs). By removing the proposed
Northeast RDIA and the proposed expansion of the River Quadrant RDIA from the EAR process will allow
for more community outreach in a separate process with residents, business owners, agencies, and other
stakeholders to review the proposed boundaries, density, future fixed rail stations and levels of service.
This separate effort would align with the new Policy LU 5.2.1. The separate review of RDIAs will allow
further coordination with partner agencies on intensity/density increases in transit -oriented development
areas, adjacent Live Local Act eligible sites and review of transportation demand management options to
help mitigate traffic concerns while supporting the quality of life of residents.
This substitution memo will only update the public outreach information and to remove the proposed
RDIAs at First Reading as follows:
Updated Legislation — to remove the proposed RDIAs and omit Exhibit J, Exhibit K, Exhibit L, and
Exhibit M from the legislation which relate to the proposed RDIAs.

o Updated Maps 9, 15, 16, 19, and 21 to remove Northeast RDIA and River Quadrant RDIA.
• 14508 — Exhibit B — MCNP — Appendix LU-1 (c)
o Update to Future Land Use Map (pdf pg 3) and Interpretation of 2035 Future Land Use Map
i. Remove proposed Northeast RDIA
ii. Remove expansion of River Quadrant RDIA
• 14508 — Exhibit A — MCNP — GOPs (o)
o Remove reference of the Northeast RDIA at 350 units per acre from the High Density Multifamily

Upon approval, the update legs lation will be forwarded to the Agenda Office for distribution to the
Mayor and all Commission rs./J

Miami: Envisioning 2035 — Draft September 2023
INTRODUCTION
More than a century ago, a city sprung up almost overnight. As a result, one of Miami's many
nicknames is the Magic City. Much like her geographical description, Miami's history is colorful,
magnetic, and exotic. Ever -evolving, Miami is surging as a major international port and gateway
for global industries establishing footholds in the U.S. despite the City's relatively young age.
Since the early 2000s, Miami has seen a boom of high-rise architecture, dubbed a "Miami
Manhattanization" wave. This included the construction of many of the tallest buildings in Miami,
with nearly 20 of the City's tallest 25 buildings completed after 2005. This boom transformed the
look of Downtown Miami, which now has one of the largest skylines in the United States, ranked
behind New York City and Chicago. This boom slowed after the 2008 financial crisis.
The City of Miami has been experiencing an impressive economic recovery and expansion
since the middle of the 2010s. According to the Kauffman Foundation, in 2017, the Miami area
ranked first among the largest metro areas in the U.S. for startup activity. This startup
environment is supported by the area's international flavor and Miami's status as the gateway to
Latin America and has drawn an influx of immigrants that generate a mixture of innovative ideas
from different cultures. The continued growth and forward thinking by the communities that
make up the City of Miami aid in it remaining a major international, financial, and cultural center.
Over the next decade, Miami stands ready to embrace the exciting opportunities and challenges
that lie ahead. With beautiful year-round weather few other cities can parallel, a thriving
business climate ripe for international expansion, and a steadfast commitment to climate
resiliency, Miami is well -positioned to attract economic development that continues to spur
population growth.
The update to Miami's Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan (MCNP), known as Miami:
Envisioning 2035, seeks to build upon the City of Miami's unique history, embrace its culturally
diverse population, and preserve neighborhood vitality while promoting a vibrant urban
metropolitan area that supports multi -modal transportation and mixed -use communities. The
importance of the MCNP lies in its ability to shape positive community change while meeting the
needs of the community to effectively integrate citywide policies and state and regional
initiatives. Through collaboration between City staff and residents, businesses, developers,
design professionals, property owners and city officials, the MCNP lays the foundations for
achieving the community's vision. The four overarching themes of transportation, parks and
recreation, housing, and economy were key topics that helped to receive comments for updating
the goals, policies, and objectives that support enhancements of Transit Oriented Development
(TOD) and Transit Shed areas, the concept of a 15-minute community, expansion and retention
of park land, while supporting resiliency and the protection of established residential
neighborhoods for all residents.
The MCNP is the City's official comprehensive plan for making decisions related to physical
development including land use and housing, parks and open space, and transportation. It sets
forth the City's vision for the future and establishes the goals, objectives, policies, and programs
to realize that vision. The MCNP thus helps the City fulfill its mission to elevate the quality of life
of its residents by improving public safety, housing, mobility, diverse shared spaces that foster
community, and efficient and transparent government.

for bicycle and pedestrian connections that intersect with the transit street in close
proximity to transit stops.
a) Redevelopment of property within one-half mile of existing and planned transit stations
and bus routes shall not cause an increase in walking distance from nearby areas to the
transit services and shall, wherever practical, be done in a manner that reduces walking
distances and is comfortable and attractive to pedestrians.
a) Land uses that are not conducive to public transit ridership such as car dealerships, car -
oriented food establishments, and container yards should not be permitted to locate or
expand within one -quarter mile of a rapid transit station.
Miami: Envisioning 2035 — Draft September 2023 1-14
H. 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.

INTERPRETATION OF THE FUTURE LAND USE MAP
The 2020 2035 Future Land Use Map (contained in Appendix LU-1 of the MCNP as amended
from time to time) is a planning instrument designed to guide the future development and
distribution of land uses within the city in a manner that is consistent with the goals, objectives
and policies of the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan (MCNP).
The 2020 2035 Future Land Use Map is a generalized map that does not depict areas of less
than 2 acres. The Planning Director is responsible for making all determinations of concurrency
as defined in state statutes, and w&shall also interpret the map based on all applicable state
laws and administrative regulations and on the consistency between the proposed change or
changes and the goals, objectives and policies expressed in the MCNP. The Planning Director
wil-kshall also determine whether or not proposed zoning changes require an amendment to the
comprehensive plan.
Land development regulations and policies are to be consistent with the 2020 2035 Future Land
Use Map. The land development regulations further define and describe all requirements
applicable to zoning categories contained under each land use designation, permitting the
treatment of new development according to the particular conditions existing in different areas,
and always consistent with the goals, objectives and policies of the MCNP, and specifically with
the Future Land Use Element and its Future Land Use Map. The land use designations are
general designations that may include more than one zoning category. All activities and uses
within each designation are compatible with each other by virtue of their scale, intensity and
character, or by additional conditions required by the land development regulations, more
specifically by the City Zoning Ordinance, which describes and regulates development within
zoning districts in order to achieve more definite goals and objectives.
The land use designations that appear in the 2020 2035 Future Land Use Map are arranged
following the "pyramid concept" of cumulative inclusion, whereby subsequent categories are
inclusive of those listed previously except as otherwise noted. These designations, and the uses
allowed in them, are defined as follows:
Conservation
This land use designation is restricted to environmentally sensitive areas that are to be left in an
essentially natural state. Only activities that reinforce this character are allowed. Public access
to these areas, including off-street parking, may be limited when unregulated access may
present a threat to wildlife and plant life within such areas.
Public Parks and Recreation
The primary intent of this land use classification is to conserve open space and green spaces of
a park while allowing access and uses which shall not interfere with the preservation of any
significant environmental features which may exist within the park.
This land use designation allows only open space and park uses with recreational and cultural
uses where the total building footprints and impervious parking area surfaces in parks of one (1)
Miami: Envisioning 2035 — Draft September 2023 1-21
acre of more may cover no more than 25% of the park land area (See related Policy PR-2.1.3.).
Both passive and active recreational uses shall be permitted including but not limited to nature
trails, interpretive centers, picnic areas, park shelters, event spaces, pet areas, playgrounds,
canoe, kayak, and other recreational trails and launches, small concession stands, restrooms,
indoor and outdoor gyms, swimming pools, athletic fields, cultural facilities, marine and marina
facilities and other facilities supporting passive and active recreational and cultural uses.
Lands under this designation with specific qualities that make them desirable for commercial

the same manner as used by the traditional LOS methodology. Both the Person -Trip LOS and
traditional automobile LOS may, at the discretion of the City, require the analysis of traffic
impacts during periods traditionally defined as non -peak. (See CI-1.2.3.f.)
Policy TR-1.7.3: When calculating person -trip volumes for the existing conditions, projected
conditions without the development, and projected conditions with the development, the Person -
Trip LOS shall use roadway average annual daily traffic (AADT), an assumed automobile
occupancy rate of people per automobile (as defined in the appropriate Development of
Regional Impact Increment for that project area), a possible combined trip reduction rate that
Miami: Envisioning 2035 — Draft September 2023 7-6
reflects pedestrian and bicycle mode split (based on recent U.S. Census American Community
Survey data or locally -specific travel surveys), and existing transit ridership. When calculating
the person trip capacities, the Person Trip LOS shall use existing roadway capacity adjusted by
an occupancy rate and existing transit capacity data. (See Appendix TR-1 for Data Inventory
and Analysis.)
Policy TR-1.7.4: Issuance of development orders for new development or significant expansion
of existing development shall be contingent upon development of an approved mitigation
plan for areas at LOS E (100 percent of capacity) standard or beyond withi centers, transit
corridors, and all other areas. (See CI-1.2.3.f.)
Policy TR-1.7.5: The City w+l-kshall continue to monitor, and shall update by December 2018
through a new transportation master plan, the Person -Trip Methodology and designation of
transit corridors (as illustrated in Map TR-13.2 within Appendix TR-1, the Data Inventory and
Analysis section). This update wi.l-kshall include adjustment for modal splits and improvements
or changes to existing transit services and bicycle facilities to better identify, describe, measure,
and evaluate the multimodal transit corridors, facilities and terminals.
Policy TR-1.7.6: Person Trip Methodology is not applicable for SIS facilities. Instead, the
traditional automobile level of service methodology that measures vehicle trips w+l-kshall be used
to evaluate SIS facilities and other facilities of state importance.
Future updates shall also consider changes in existing and future land use, population
density, economic activity, housing, business type and quality, and neighborhood plans. As a
component of this effort, the City shall assess how the Person -Trip Methodology could be
enhanced to identify projected transit needs and programming on a route -by -route basis in
coordination with the MPO and Miami -Dade County.
