the Interpretation of the Future Land Use Map; and
WHEREAS, the implementation of said Density increases is deferred to the applicable
land development regulations in the Miami 21 Code; and
WHEREAS, the City of Miami ("City") has a known affordability crisis, and increasing the

Area, as described in Chapter 62 of the City Code; and
WHEREAS, the pending Chapter 62 ordinance limits the Resilience Fund Areas to
