ANALYSIS PLAT AND STREET COMMITTEE: At the September 6, 2018 Plat and Street Committee meeting, the Committee approved TRACT 23 (Vacation of Street), please see Attachment 3 — Resilience and Public Works Letter. Plat and Street Committee considerations are with respect to the four items below in making their recommendations to the Planning, Zoning, and Appeals Board (PZAB). Criteria 1: Is it in the public interest, or would the general public benefit from the vacation of the rights of way or easement; per the City of Miami's Code of Ordinances, Sec. 55-15 - Vacation and closure of rights-of-way platted easements and emergency access easements by plat. Plat and Street The museum is being introduced for civic use and public benefit. The Committee Finding 1: property is an existing legal non -conforming structure with no existing parking. Parking spaces will be constructed within the vacated portion of Right of Way area for NW 22 Ter. The development will generate additional tax base to the City. The vacation will also shift the burden of street maintenance to the Property owner. Planning Department It is consistent with Miami 21, Article 4, Table 12 — Design Review Criteria, Analysis 1 "Parking Standards", minimize the impact of automobile parking and driveways on the pedestrian environment and adjacent properties by confining the ancillary parking for the Rubell Museum onsite within the vacated right of way. Planning Department Planning Department concurs with the Plat and Street Committee finding Finding 1: because the vacation and closure of this portion of Right of Way of NW 22 Ter allows for a unified property for future development. Furthermore, it will promote a "walkable" area within a predominantly industrially -designated area. Criteria 2: Is the general public no longer using the rights of way or easement, including public service vehicles such as trash and garbage trucks, police, fire or other emergency vehicles? Plat and Street The vacated street does not connect to the west, only to the east. It has been Committee Finding 2: fenced off for years due to security issues. Public service and emergency vehicles have access from the north side of the property. Planning Department The Planning Department concurs with the Plat and Street Committee's Finding 2: Finding 2. Criteria 3: Would there be no adverse effect on the ability to provide police, fire or emergency services? Plat and Street All services are accessed from the north side of the property. There is no Committee Finding 3: adverse effect on the ability to provide police, fire or emergency services. Planning Department The Planning Department concurs with the Plat and Street Committee's Finding 3: Finding 3. File ID# PZ -19-628: Vacation and Closure of NW 22 Ter for Tentative Plat — Track 23 Subdivision 5 Criteria 4: Would the vacation and closure of the Right of Way or easements have a beneficial effect on pedestrian and vehicular circulation in the area?

CONCLUSION Per the Applicant's Letter of Intent, the closure and vacation of a portion of NW 22 Terr will allow for the relocation of the Rubell Museum, which will have both direct and indirect benefits by bringing in a cultural and educational asset to a predominately industrial zoned a neighborhood along with potentially bringing in additional business from local, regional, and international visitors.
