last meeting to go back, and get everything in writing. I believe
that we have done this. We've seen the copies of the resolution,
prepared by the City Attorney's Office. We've listened to the com-
ments from the Public Works Department. We agree to the conditions,
as not only to the conditions prepared by the City Attorney's Office,
but we also accept those imposed by the Department of Public Works.
We've done everything that we possibly could to work with the
Planning Staff. I think we've done this.
There is one thing, though, that I do want to clear up that was
in the Record last week, that really doesn't have anything to do with
this particular application, but when a statement is made and I find
that we are in error, then I think we should correct it. It had to
do with an objector that said that they had seen a type of brochure
relative to the use of the building. Mr. Forte is here to tell you
a little something about that. It doesn't have a thing to do with
the docks, but I want to set the Record straight,
Mr. Dean, A11 right, Mr. Forte?

and that there is a.newsletter that went out, it was the first news-
letter our publishing or public relations staff had printed up, and
the word "hotel" was used in that newsletter.
Now, the reason I bring this up, is because I do want to
correct myself, because I was pretty adament at the time, that there
was no such thing that was occurring, and I want to make it very clear
that I was- I thought I was correct in that assumption, but she was
correct. That word was used, but not meant to be used, it was in
error. And as we are not zoned for hotel rooms, that we don't have
hotel rooms, and I want to make that clear. Even though it's not an
issue here, at this time.
And, we do intend to give many hotel services in the building,
but we do not maintain the hotel rooms.
And, I just wanted to clear that up. Thank you.
Mr. Dean: Thank you, very much.
Mr. Watson: That's all we have, sir.
Mr. Dean: All right, sir. Is there anyone in opposition?
Mrs. Alexander: Selma Alexander, 2323 South Miami Avenue,
for the Record.
I have not had certain questions answered, by the Legal
Department. And I have an additional brochure that came in the mail
yesterday, I think, which I've turned over to Mr. Anderson, our
Attorney.
The first thing that not had answered, is, what is the
status of this marina, which is not the legal possession of the condo-
minium owners? The ownership of the marina stays with the developer,
for him to do with whatever he pleases. And, I'm sure that they're
going to build a beautiful marina, and there'll be lovely boat slips.
But, suppose something happens, and he decides to sell it? What does
that do to this document? How does this assure the condominium owners?
Mr. Dean: Mr. Attorney?
Mrs. Alexander: These are just questions, I --
Mr. Anderson: You will notice the resolution we have pre-
pared, on the last page, Page Three, for your signature, Mr. Chairman,
and the witnesses, and also a place for Notary's Seal.
Now, this instrument will be recorded, and anyone who buys any
of this property, or examines title to this property will know that
these restrictions are placed on the property. And, I've shown this
to Mr. Watson, and he had no objection to it. And, this will go for
the other one, the other project, as well. So that this will be an
Official Document in the Public Records of Dade County, Florida, as
well as of the City of Miami.
Mr. Dean; All right, Mrs. Alexander?
Mrs. Alexander: Well, I don't know, as I said, I'm not a lawyer,
and I could understand how this would protect the upland owners of the
condiminiums. And, I accept Mr, Forte's apology.

PREPARED FOR REVIEW I3Y THE STATE OF FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF
NATURAL RESOURCES
Evidence by a designated marine biologist indicates little
or no environmental impact to bay bottom lands contiguous
to the proposed marina facility.
Mr. Dean: Staff?
Mr. McLean: The Planning:( Department has evaluated th"
petition for a "Conditional Use" for a seventy boat I'l-rina, .an: the
request for permission to dredge the bay bottom land contiguous, in
the "b" portion. And, recommends the "a" portion, "Approval, s •e jeet
to the following conditions", and these conditions I think the•, are
mentioning for the Record again. (See above statement not reecste.'.'
The Staff has very carefully evaluated t-hP proposed :project in
terms of the Planning Department's proposed legislation, for wet
storage of marine vessels. We felt it imperative that :since we
3o have this pending documentation, and pending legislation, that any
proposed marina facility be evaluated in terms of that. AnJ, that
conditions he placed upon the petition for a marina, in lieu cif having
this legislation that would basically agree with the intent of the
legislation, and assure us that we wi11 have - the City, the cte"neral
public, would have a safe and attractive marina facility, exclusive"
for the use of the site residents.
We have mot with the applicant, I believe the applicant can
speak to, and att.e.t to that, that. T believe we have agreed. As far as
the conditions, he may have some additional comments to make.
I might add, that on the "h" portion, we have reviewed the enviren
nental studies submitted by the applicant, as required by the State
Department of Natural Resources. The project will have to be, as
I understand, reviewed by the Department of Natural Resources. But
cased on the submissions at this time, the Department sees no injury
to the bay bottom lanc'I, or any cause to stay this reyucst for dredg-
ing facilities.
basically, what the Department is really requesting on thie, i
a Legal Instrument to go alone with the October 2nd Letter, that is in
the •Board's file. And that letter outlines pretty well in detail,
the stipulations that the Department would like to see thin project
ieveloped with these stipulations in mind. And the applicant is
of•
-42- October 7, 1974 Item K7
illifig to met these conditions, and the Department is ri 11-incr to
Xtend a recommendation for approval of the project.
:•ir. Dean: A11 right, sir.
Mt. Watson: May it please the hoard. "1y name is ,lack Watson,
y address is 12600 Old Cutler Road. I represent the applicant, an,'
ill try to be very brief.
As you heard from the Planning Department, they have rocomrnende.i
approval, subject to three conditions. We accept the' condition number
'nee On number two, we are told that based on the seventy boat :.1ior
-hat we have, we are going to hav- to provide ah ,additional thirty -
line spaces, and based on this, we accept number two.
We accept number three, rind there is ore filed ohjr,-tor, hy
its. Alexander, whose objeoti.on states that "since the cl "oloc,er h,r
-eserved the ownership and development rights to the marine area,
end it would not be restricted to the use of the condominium dweller is in essence, more liberal zoning for ,a commercial, ,an1,'nr
=tub venture which is not to be allowc,d in the 1t-51'. ')n this basis;,
am opposed."
To satisfy Mrs. Alexander's objection, the owner, the developer,
the owner, the applicant, agrees that the words "and their oursts" can
.e deleted from Condition 'dumber One, and we will rent only to condo-
ninium owners and residents.
That completes our presentation. I have people here, that woo1S
answer any questions on the Board might have. '!'hank you.
Mr. Dean: Thank you vary much. Then , if you don't have anythine,
we will revert -
t1r. Silverman: What do you mean by "condominium owner's .tltJ
residents", are you going to rent out?
• `ir. Watson: It:'s possible, yes.
Mr. Dean: All right, Mrs. Alexander?
Mrs. Alexander: Selma Alexander, 2323 South Miami :•Ivenur. .
I hate to always seem to be objecting. I think it's a beautiful
project. however, I've passed in front of you a small document that
was in "7iae Overview", a newsletter of the Florida Planning and Zoning
Association, April 1974. And on the hack, it said somethings about
condominium recreation leases.
The man who wrote they article is a man by the name of Milton
Field, and probably, you've all read it, because you all get this.
And, when I read it, I thought this is very interestinu, I thought
this was the great environmentalist, ecologist, .end theorist of all
time. I find out he's a realtor. Which I think is most interestin'c,
and most important.
It seems to roe, that the applicant is willing to abide, hy certain
of, or, go along with some of my objections. But, the point is, resi-
dents and guests, he's willing to knock out the guests. But this is
arickell Bay Club, which is separate and distinct from the condominium.
The condominium document clearly states that the marina area is
for the exclusive use of the developer, his heirs, and assignees. And,
he can sell, rent, lease, or do anything he pleases with it. As he
can with the rent leases,
I had hoped that the State would do something about these
leases on a Legislative level. However, I think it revolves down to us,
on a local level, to see that we can stop these things on a Zoning
level, Because where you don't have Unity of Title, where recreation
lease and the riparian rights are against the best interests of the
upland owners, in other words, this PJU) was predicated on a total
-43- October 7, 19 74 Item 07
ofle piece of property. And, many many bonuses were given, and I
will admit, it's a beautiful project. And, Mr. Porte want along
With Most of the recommendations.
Stit nowhere, and at no time, was the Department, or this i,oa r(d
aware of the holding back of thes3 portions of property, the rights,
the riparian tights, the wa:erfroat, et cetera. And, I would like
to see it start out a little more clearly, than just 'condominium
owners and residents' , because, what about the hotel rooms that were
asked for? I understand that two floors ate goinc to be for rental
of the developers.
So, if - I don't know how this is going to work out in practice,
but I think it's true. And this is not zoned for hotel or hotel use,
this is zoned•for R-5A Residence.
Mr. Dean: Mrs. Alexander, do you have anything that you would
suggest, as to the wording.
Mrs. Alexander: Well, I would prefer, and I have di_scus,od
this with Mr. Anderson, or, at least I have let him look at the
documents, and I think that this is something that the Legal Depart-
ment must decide. I think this is very - as they say - a moot point.
I'm not a lawyer.
Mr. Alfonso: In other words, -
Mrs. Alexander: Nor, am I a developer, I just know that -
I read these things, and I follow what happens in the Lngislature,
and I follow closely what happens here, and I think there's a great
deal of division of opinion, as to the legality of the zoning in this
case where the ownership of the property is divided, where the PAD
was issued on the basis of a total piece of property, and these
rights were held back.
And, all I can do is turn it over to you, and say - "Zoning
d3od}.es".to quote from this article that "Zoning Bodies and their
Members must enter into the Record by direct question, all pertinent
facts relating to any project involving two or more persons. It should
be noted, where water related condominiums have been built with lease
procedures, many unit owners still don't realize that some developers
have gone so far as to separate the riparian water rights from the
property, for business reasons, and this too, must come under full
disclosure laws."
And that's the only thing - I'm simply posing questions. And,
I based my objection on these factors. And, I think we have to deal
with the lawyers. . . . Thank you.
Mr. Dean: Thank you very much. Sir?
Mr. Riddle: Mr. Chairman, Members of the Board. My name is
Bruce Riddle, and I am Vice President and Director, with the Tropical
Audubon Society.
It is our belief that this request for a marina construction,
and its attendant dredge request, constitutes further environmental
degradation of Biscayne Bay.
The Brickell Point Area of the Bay is probably the most produc-
tive region in the Bay, north of the Rickenbacker Causeway.
To permit additional dredging, in an already stress envii onment,
is not consistent with the recently passed Legislation, whic'l created
an aquatic preserve of Biscayne Bay. This included all areas of the
Bay, within Dade and Monroe Counties.
Nor, is it in the interests of the Citizens of Dade County,
nor in the interests of the Boating Public in general.
This permit of the construction of this pier and marina, will
create, in addition to others , perhaps, three such facilities between
15th Street and 23rd Street on the Bay. The shortest of these will
-44- October 7, 1974 Ttem 1f7
extend for three hundred eighty-eight feet into Biscayne Bay. The
10 igest Will extend some five hundred sixteen feet into Bi sca.mr %lay.
/nc1, all would be within eight blocks of one ancther.
We are also concerned with the possible detrimental effects,
which oil, gas, and other Petroleum products will have on the waters
Of the f3ay.
The dredge operation will !loud the water with silt, and will
destroy the marine algae and gras3es, which have populated thi c: area
of Biscayne Bay.
The . . flora and fauna in areas adjacent to the site ht'
adversely affected as well.
These piers, and adjacent precdistaries will change water flow
patterns, and will create deep areas where an accumulation of organic
debris will decay, and reduce the desirable oxygen levels required for
fish, crabs, an' n " ^r marine species.
Through proper zoning, the integrity, esthetics, and environ-
mental qualities of Biscayne Bay, in fact, can be enhanced.
We are confident that the financial feasibility of these projects
will in no way be impaired, by the inability of the developer to con-
struct the marina, and pier. Substantial profits still will be made
by the developer. Therefore, Tropical Audubon Society would request
that this application be denied.
Mr. Dean: All right, thank you, very much. Anyone else?
Sir, we will revert back to you for rebuttal.
Mr. Watson: Yes, sir, in rebutting, a short rebuttal.. Lot: me
just say this, that Mr. Forte has agreed to the recommendations of
the Planning Staff, in this, as he did in the part. He's even done
a little more than that, he has restricted the use of the marina
facilities - the Planning Department had "and its guests", we've
taken the "quest" situation out of it, and it only can be - only
going to be able to rent to some of our condominium owner, or
resident that's living there.
We have the Marine Biologist here, if you want to go into a long
prolonged hearing on Florida Environmental Studies.
The Planning Department has taking, and the report of our
Maine Biologist, lave gone over it, and studied it, and have made
recommendations to you; we concur with that recommendation. If you
want to talk to the Marine ^in]^^ist, he's here, but he's - the only
thing he's going to tell you, is just what it says in this report,
it indicates little or no environmental impact to the Bay 'ottom Land.
So, it's up to ybu, that's the only thing I have.
Mr. Dean: All right, thank you very much. We will close the
public hearing, and have discussion among Board Members. Mr. Gott?
Mr. Gort: Mr. Chairman, a question I woule like to ask the
applicant is, w}.o owns the marina?
Mr. Watson: The applicant.
Mr. Gott: The applicant.
Mr. Watson: Yes.
Mr. Dean: Does that answer your question, captain?

`4r. Alfonso: itr. Chairman, T believe we ate living in a
inc ineht of distress, Crisis, we don't know if a fellow can pny
his mortgage sometimes with the problems of financing, and, here,
we have in 7, "b", it says "Approval in accordance with environmental
studies prepared for review ray the State of Florida Department of
►datural Resources. Evidence by a designated marine biologist
indicates little or no environmental impact to bay bottom lands
contiguous to the proposed marina facility."
In other words, they don't feel any problem with this marina
being built. end, we have to face the reality, This developer, even
took out the word "quests", trying to do the best, Mr. Forte, and the
last time he was here, he tried to work through the Department, he
went through the PAD. He was one of the first, the biggest project
that was developed here. 'end, I am in favor to recommend this, subject
to the conditions of the Department.
Mr. Dean: All right, Mr. Campbell, I see you are on your feet
for the first time, and I'm happy to see that.
Mr. Campbell: I would request that the Board, when they make
a deliberation on this, the consideration of the Page Two or '•tr. Forte's
letter, Mr. Ilefley's letter concerning this, there is a mention of the
provision for sanitary facilities in the marina.
Mr. Dean: We don't have Mr. Forte's letter.
Mr. Campbell: inr. lle`ley's letter, it's from VTt1 Incorporated.
Mr. Dean: Yes, here it is.
Mr. Campbell: Well, ,anyway. They have an item for sanitary
here, which among other things, it says, that "The project will
include at least one pumpout facility connected to the City sewer."
The sanitary facility in llrickell Avenue was designed and built
according to the zoning, R-5A, and built to accommodate this zoning.
The Department of Public Works, would respectfully request the Hoard,
in their deliberation, if they so desire to approve this, to require
the developer to furnish the Department with the necessary informa-
tion, so that we may evaluate the possible impact that the sanitary
facilities in the marina might have on the City sowers.
Mr. Dean: All right, sir. Do you accept that?
Mr. Watson: He says he wants information on what? My client
wishes to know.
Mr. Silverman: I think what he's - he said he wants to know
is information about what the sewer situation is going to be, generated
as a result of this, so that t`iey can build bigger sewers, I guess.
Mr. Watson: We will give you the information, the best we can.
Mr. Silverman: 'ir. Chairman, may I raise one point?
Mr. Dean: All right.
Mr. Silverman: In accordance with Mrs. Alexander's comment, I
just want to put something in the Record, so that later on, there's
no question.
The intention, if this Board does grant you approval., is for the
use of this marina to be used by the residents and owners of the con-
dominium association. This would not be a public marina. This is
not a commercial venture. This is not going to be docks where you
slice fish, and sell, have charter boats, and all of that.

that ate not allowed.
Mr, Silverman: Whet do you have to say about that?
11r. Forte: That is not even before this Board.
Mr, Silverman: Does that mean you are not going to have any
hotel rooms?
Mrs. Alexander: I have something very specific in mind 1 have
in mind the fact that there are areas that •1111 he rented out as hotel
suites, by the I3rickell Bay Club. And, thi.; will be a hotel operation,
it's in the brochures, it's - when you call un on the telephone, you
find out that, I believe it's the seventeenth and the twenty-first
floor reserved to the lrickell Bay Club, which is not the condominium
asdociati.on. Which will be for rent, as hotel suites.
That's it. There again, is a question of who are the residents.
And -
'1r. Forte: I have no idea what she's talking about, there are
no hotel suites in this buildings, there have never been any hotel
suites in this building, and I don't know where she's getting her
information from. And, there are no mention of hotel rooms in any
of our brochures.

Mr. Alfonso: Yes sir, subject to all the requirements of the
Departhehts, the legal Department, they ate ready_ to comply with,
Subject td that.
Mr. Dean: All tight, is there a second? Is there a second?
All right, this died for lack of a second. A new motion is in order,
(Discussion)
Mrs. Callahan: I move to defer this item, until all of the
instruments and documents have been prepared, and submitted to the
Members of the Zoning Board, so that we may vote on it more intelli-
gently.
Mr. Dean:
A11 right, is there a second?
Reverend Johnson: Second.
Mr. Dean: All right, seconded by Reverend Johnson. tinder

Mr. Simpson: This would be on both protions "a", and "b"?
Mr. Dean: Yes, sir.
Mr. Simpson: A11 right, defer - do you want to set a date for.
that?
Mr. Dean: How early can you get it brick on? As quick as they
can get the Law Department to get together, and the documents neces-
sary and all of this information we have discussed, into a resolution.
Mr. Simpson: The next meeting is October 21st. The document
would have to be in my hand by Thursday of this week. I'll have to
prepare the agenda, tomorrow, with the stipulation that the document
be in my hand by Thursday.
Mr. Forte: We're not going to prepare any document, the City
would have to prepare the document, and we would have to agree to
your document. Certainly, we're not going to prepare one, and ask
you to agree to ours, we're arrreeing to you.
And, I'd 1:..ke to say one other thing to th:_s Board.
And, I'm not Fair Isle. And, I don't appreciate being put on te
level of Fair Isle. I've developed two projects in this town, far,
and I've come in front of this Board on both projects.
One was the Forte Plaza Office Building. [ was the first one
under your new Zoning Code on the f3rickell Avenue, on the office
building. I've met every one of your criteria5, I've promised to
meet every one, and I have. And, you can go see the office buildinu.
I'm kind of proud of it, and I think the City is a little proud of it,
since they gave me a Beautification Award on the building. I: met the
requirements, I was Number One, under that. I came Number One in the
City of Miami, under the PAD approval. I went and met with your
Planning Department, and met all of your requirements. I compromised
on everything that you asked for. You drew tl:e papers up, I agreed to
do it, I am doing it, and I have done it. I'm coming in front of you
with a proposal to put a marina facility here. I'm being accused of
things I don't know what I'm being accused of.
All I'm telling you is that, again, I'm agreeable to everything
that your Department has said.
Mr. Dean; Who is accusing you? Of anything?
Mr. Forte: Mrs. Alexander,
Mr. Dean: We're not referring to that..
nr. Fort: Ali right, then -
M.r. Dean;• We're asking for 4 deferment - based on all of the
0- uctoper 7, 1474 Item o7
things th&t Were Mentioned here, We waht to get it down. That's all.
Mr. Forte: I understand. '3ut I'm telling you, the procedure in
which you have followed in the past, and which I have complied with you -
1r. Dean: If you agreed with the following of procedures, let's
follow this one. That's all.
Mr. Forte: But I'm not doing to draw an agreement. [ nev. r have.
I will agree to anything that the --
Mr. Dean: I don't think that anyone made a motion asking
:1r. Porte to do nothing.
Mr. Forte: Well I think .
Mr. Dean: I'm for direction, and I don't think I'm looking for
it from you.
Mr. Simpson: . . . the applicant and the City Attorney who will
have to . . . and agree with . .
Mr. Watson: Well, whenever the City Attorney provides me with
an Agreement, we will be glad to look it over, and if it's satisfactory,
we'll be down the next day with it.
The question is, is when? When we will get it.
Mr. Dean: You have agreed to one, two, three► and other things
connected you agree to, and something that he mentioned, that I want
to see down. And this is what we're deferring it for.
Mr. Watson: Couldn't you, just as a matter of intrrest, [ know
what you're going to do, but just as a matter of i.ntereset, couldn't
you accomplish the same thing, by just conditioning this thing, at
this hearing?
Mr. Dean: No, sir, I want to move on the motion, rnovo on, I'd
like to see it done this way. Do you understand the motion, now,
Mr. Simpson?
All right, call the roll.
Mr. Simpson: There is no date set, then?
Mr. Dean: I asked you what date you had open, and that they
could refer it back.
Mr. Simpson: All right, we will leave it - if I can have the
document by 'Thursday, so that it's properly in my file ten days prior,
we can schedule it for the 21st of October.
If not, the next date would be November Iltn. I beg your pardr•n,
November 4.
Mr. Dean: All right, call the roll.
Mr. Watson: When is it going to be, shouldn't we hear from the
Attorney, as to when we were going to be provided this Agreement that
we're supposed to sign? That's the intent of the motion, as I under-
stand it.
Mr. Anderson: Well, I couldn't tell you tonight, when I. can got
to prepare it, that is part of the problem. I hope to have it by
Thursday, and then, I can give you a call.
Mr. Dean; Mr. Simpson?
Mr. Simpson; Well, tommorow morning we prepare the proper ad
and the agenda for our next meeting, which is the 21st,
Mr. Alfonso: Call the question,

-�5q-- Octok er 7, 1974 Item 17
Mr. Silverman: Are you under some pressi're? Are you going
th Start building the marina?
Mt. Forte: The problem is, that this is one step of many
steps that must be taken, in order to build this marina. In order
to keep it moving, we must know in the beginning where we stand,
either it's 'yes', or it's 'no', and that's the simple answer I
want from this Bcard, either it's 'yes', or 'no'.
Any agreement you're going to draw up isn't going to mean
anything, because I have to still get State approval on this, I have
to go through so many approvals before this thing can ever be built,
and - to stop it right in the beginning - if you want me to sign an
Agreement I certainly will make that a condition upon before anything
is ever done on this property, and I can only say that you can :stop -
well, I have to submit a set of plans before I could even build it,
and you could stop it right there, i` this Agreement is not made,
and entered into, whatever Agreement you were talking to.
Mr. Anderson: I don't know whether my statement was confused,
or not. I just wanted, you know, the variance subject to an Agreement
satisfactory to the City Attorney's Office.
Mr. Forte: We agreed to that.
Mr. Anderson: Yes. And, I didn't necessarily mean that I had
to have it before the varinace was approved, just that, I wanted the
conditions right in your motion for variance. Any anC all the con-
ditions in the variance. And then we could make up the Agreement.
So, I was not trying to hold this up, and I wasn't trying to accuse
Mr. Forte of anything. You know - because at any rate -
Mr. Forte: I didn't mean that you were trying to accuse -
Mr. Anderson: That's all I'm saying, is that I, you I:now, wo:Yl'.
like a variance subject to -
Mr. Forte: I think the City ought to he protected. I'r ..illir.c
to do it. It's that simple.
Mr. Watson: And we agree to it.
Mr. Dean: All right, Mr. fimpson.
Mrs. Alexander: I just want to say that I'rn not -
Mr. Dean: You're out of order Mrs. Alexander.
Mr. Silverman: I will ask her.
'ir. Dean: Go ahead.
Mrs. Alexander: I just said, I am not in the business of
accusing people, either. I just thought that this Board needed to
have some questions answered, that I thought were properly pose.l.
Mr. Dean: All right, have you got the date, Mr. Simpson?
Mr. Simpson: Mr. Chairman, you had better make it Novr^i'.'or llt`r.
Because I can't get anything definite.
bir. Dean: Okay, November llth.
Mr, Simpson: Or, November 4th.
Mr. Dean: November 4th, Call the roll.
