The Property has a land use designation of Mixed-Use Neighborhood Center, is zoned Mixed-Use Neighborhood Center District (“MU/NC”) and is subject to the Core Sub-Area standards, pursuant to section 28.53(G) of the City’s Code. The Applicant seeks approval of the proposed modified site plan, in accordance with that certain Development Agreement between the Applicant and the City of North Miami Beach (the “City”), recorded in Official Records Book 30628, Page 3272 of the Miami-Dade County Public Records (the “Development Agreement”). I. Background The “5 Park” project in connection with the Property was approved by the City Commission in 2017 pursuant to Resolution No. 2017-48 (the “Resolution”) approving the site plan for the Property (the “Approved Site Plan”), and Ordinance No. 2017-17 (the “Ordinance”). The Ordinance, together with the Resolution and Development Agreement, constitute the “Project Approvals.” The Ordinance approved and authorized the execution of the Development Agreement for the project. The Project Approvals established a development program for the Property consisting of approximately 415 residential units, 72,000 square feet of gross leasable office space (50,486 net square feet), 32,000 square feet of gross leasable retail space (30,210 net square feet), and parking facilities and other accessory uses, or an equivalent combination of uses pursuant to the equivalency matrix attached as Exhibit “B” to the Development Agreement (the 5 Park – Letter of Intent June 4, 2020 Page 2 “Approved Program”). In addition, the Development Agreement provides that the Property shall be developed in accordance with the Approved Site Plan. II. Request for Site Plan Approval The Applicant is seeking to develop the Property with a mixed-use development consisting of an 8-story building with 364 residential dwelling units, with a mix of studios; one, two and three bedroom units, ±18,000 square feet of retail on the ground floor, a parking facility, and related amenities. The parking garage, consisting of 548 parking spaces, has been lined with units to screen the structure on all sides of the building. The triangular shape of the building responds to the lot shape, and its surrounding environment. The architectural design provides visibility to the street from all its sides, which will allow the future residents to take advantage of the surrounding environment and City and park views. In addition, a series of plazas and gardens along West Dixie Highway have been created to promote pedestrian activity and provide the site with a lush and refreshing landscape design. The project has been designed to provide an iconic and elegant style of architecture which is born from the site and transforms on its own through the façade and soft corners of the building. The traditional style of architecture with hints of modern features bring this structure to life and creates a timeless development. The design will serve as a catalyst to spur additional development in this corridor. The project’s mixed-use frontage along West Dixie Highway contains approximately 9,100 square feet of amenities activating the ground level, and including a lobby, leasing office, mail and package room, as well as residential stoops directly connecting to West Dixie Highway. The building amenities also include, but are not limited to, an 8,600 square-foot resort style pool courtyard, state-of-the-art fitness center, club/multi-purpose rooms, and demo kitchen area. The retail space is strategically located at the north corner of the building and features extensive glazing to promote the activation of West Dixie Highway. The main lobby entrance to the residential building fronts the south end at West Dixie Highway, and the public and private spaces create a continuous interaction with the street. The proposed placement of all service areas within the building along the east access drive will minimize any potential noise, visual, or odor impacts. The proposed redevelopment is a result of the various changes in the market, and has been thoughtfully redesigned to address the current market demands in the area. This request is being made pursuant to Sections 3.12 and 13 of the Development Agreement, which read, in relevant part, as follows: Section 3.12: An insubstantial or minor modification of this program may be modified administratively by the City pursuant to section 24-l 76(B) of the City Code. A change that would result in an equivalent combination of uses ("Equivalent Program") as set forth in the attached land use equivalency matrix attached as Exhibit B ("Equivalency Matrix") may be allowed without the need to amend this Agreement, provided that a substantial 2 #75237035_v4 5 Park – Letter of Intent June 4, 2020 Page 3 modification to the Site Plan referenced in Paragraph 3.23 of this Agreement reflecting the Equivalent Program is approved after public hearing, so long as said combination of uses complies with the Comprehensive Plan, pursuant to section 163.3227(1)(f), Florida Statutes (2016), and that residential portion of the program shall not exceed 500 dwelling units. Modifications of this Development Program that are not in accordance with and are in excess of the attached Equivalency Matrix, or provide for more than 500 dwelling units shall require amendment of this Agreement and two public hearings pursuant to section 163.3225, Florida Statutes (2016). Section 13: Any modification of the Site Plan shall be approved so long as the site development criteria within the Development subject to the Site Plan are in compliance with the Project Approvals and are generally consistent with the terms contained in this Agreement.
