City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center 1.0 Introduction

The City of Miami’s Health District (the “Health District”) is located in one of the City’s urban centers, at the northwest quadrant of the of and State Road (SR) 836 (also known as the Dolphin Expressway). The City of Miami has been positioning the Health District (formerly known as the Civic Center) for high intensity, high density, mixed‐use development and redevelopment.

In 2002, the City of Miami and the Civic Center stakeholders began the initiative to revitalize the area. The following six goals were adopted for the purpose of creating an ideal place in which to live, work, and play:

1. Enhancing the quality of life; 2. Encouraging economic development; 3. Improving neighborhood schools; 4. Providing affordable housing; 5. Maintaining a clean and safe neighborhood; 6. Promoting retail development.

The City of Miami has been an important partner in this revitalization effort and funded a study to address streetscapes, signage and gateway design standards. The City also included the Health District in its proposed streetcar route and has provided 50% funding for a circulator to transport employees and visitors around the area and encourage public transportation ridership. The City has also assisted with beautification efforts and has created a special zoning district.

The City rezoned the area by creating the “Jackson Memorial Hospital Medical Center Overlay District”, also known as SD‐10. The intent of the overlay zoning district is to treat the area as a single entity and to provide the greatest flexibility to deal with parking requirements and traffic, to promote public transportation, and facilitate the development process to ensure that the health care related facilities and other institutions in the area continue to be able to provide the highest level of medical care and related services to our community. The SD‐10 overlay district established development standards for height, intensity/density, parking, and landscaping to support the goals of the district. To continue to support the development of this area as a single entity and to promote development consistent with the vision for the overlay zoning district, the City is proposing to designate the area as a regional activity center (RAC) to increase the thresholds at which a development might be presumed to be a Development of Regional Impact (DRI). In 2009, the Florida Legislature designated Miami as a “dense urban land area” and exempted development within the City from the DRI requirements. However, there is still a reporting requirement for projects that exceed the DRI thresholds by 120 percent. Therefore, the City is still pursuing the RAC designation for the Health District to maintain the intent of increasing the potential DRI thresholds and the respective reporting requirement.

January 2010 (revised) 3

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center

The City, as indicated in the proposed ordinance provided with this report, has determined that the Health District is appropriate for more intensive growth of mixed‐ uses including retail; office; cultural, recreational and entertainment facilities; hotels and motels; major institutional and public facilities and appropriate industrial activities. This initial effort began with the designation of the Health/Civic Center District on the City’s Future Land Use Map and referenced in the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan.

To achieve the goals for continued development Miami Comprehensive and redevelopment in the area that is home to the Neighborhood Plan City’s principal health care, hospital, research, educational and judicial institutions, the City is submitting a proposed ordinance for the designation of the Health District as a RAC pursuant NW 20th Street to Chapter 380.06 of the Florida Statutes (F.S.) and I

Rule 28‐24 of the Florida Administrative Code ‐ 95 (F.A.C.). The proposed Health District RAC designation will increase certain thresholds for DRIs Ave consistent with the adopted land uses within the 14th District and consistent with the intent and purpose of the RAC eligibility criteria. This report provides NW the supporting data for the designation of the Dolphin Health District RAC, including background Expressway information regarding the Health District, a description of the RAC and a justification for the Health District RAC. In addition, data and analysis regarding the Health District and the City’s public facilities consistent with the adopted comprehensive plan is provided to support this report, the ordinance, and the proposed amendments to the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan (MCNP) and the Future Land Use Map.

Expedited Process

For its submission of the application for the proposed Health District RAC designation, the City of Miami is utilizing the expedited process referenced in Rule 28‐24.014(10), F.A.C. The proposed ordinance submitted with this report, delineates the boundaries of the proposed Health District RAC consistent with Rule 28‐24, F.A.C. Within 30 days of receipt of the submission, the DCA will determine whether or not the proposed ordinance is consistent with the criteria of the referenced rule. If the proposed ordinance is determined by DCA to be consistent, then the proposed Health District RAC shall take effect upon adoption of the ordinance by the City. The City will then amend

January 2010 (revised) 4

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan and the Future Land Use Map at the next opportunity for amendments to reflect the RAC designation.

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center 2.0 Miami Health District

The City of Miami Health District is located in the northwestern quadrant of the intersection of Interstate 95 and SR 836 (Dolphin Expressway), and just northwest of downtown Miami. The Health District is of special and substantial interest because it comprises various private and public hospital and ehealth car facilities, educational, judicial and social service institutions and related uses which together provide the highest level of services to the public. The goal of the District is to address the particular needs created by the delivery of health care, educational, judicial and social services to the community and to create a district with a unified sense of place.

Figure 2.0‐1 Miami Health District Proposed Boundary

Figure 2.0‐1 illustrates the area that is being proposed as the Health District RAC. It also illustrates the boundary of the Health/Civic Center District that is currently designated within the MCNP. The Health District is a major employment area within the City of Miami and southeast Florida (see Figure 2.0‐2), employing nearly 40,000 people in 2008. It is home to several of the nation’s premier medical, educational, judicial and social services facilities, including:

January 2010 (revised) 6

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center

• Leonard M. Miller School of Medicine • University of Miami Hospital • Jackson Memorial Hospital • Miami VA Healthcare System • Miami‐Dade College Medical Campus • Lindsey Hopkins Technical Education Center • 11th Judicial Circuit Court of Florida • Miami‐Dade County Office of the State Attorney • Miami‐Dade County Public Defender’s Office • Miami‐Dade County Corrections and Rehabilitation Department • Children’s Home Society of Florida • Miami‐Dade County Health Department • Kristi House • Camillus House

Many of the major health care, educational, social services and judicial institutions within the Health District are expected to expand and redevelop in order to meet the demands of the region’s growing population. Redevelopment and infill within the District is expected to attract hospitals, emergency rooms, clinics, laboratories, medical research and clinical, including biotechnical laboratories and research facilities, and all other accessory uses necessary to support those uses. The extensive network of major public transportation facilities and transportation corridors which serve the Health District will also attract development. The expanded services and facilities will lead to increased housing and employment opportunities for the region and to the City’s achievement of one its main goals: creating an ideal place in which residents can live and work in a compact, urban neighborhood.

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center 3.0 Health District RAC – Purpose

Intent

The City of Miami is submitting this application for the designation of the area bounded by SR 836 to the south, I‐95 to the east, NW 20th Street to the north, and NW 17th Avenue to the west as a RAC pursuant to Chapter 380.06, F.S., and Rule 28‐24, F.A.C. The proposed RAC boundaries encompass the entire Health District and add an area to the west from NW 14th Avenue to NW 17th Avenue. The RAC designation is intended to support development or redevelopment in areas of regional significance by providing increased development of regional impact (DRI) thresholds. The proposed Health District RAC fully meets this intent.

A RAC pursuant to Section 380.06(2)(e), F.S., serves as an overlay designation on the City’s Future Land Use Map and does not require changes to the underlying land use designations within the RAC boundaries. The underlying land uses within the Health District RAC will remain as identified on the City’s Future Land Use Map and are presented in Section 4.1.2 of this report.

Currently, there are several development or redevelopment plans which have been initiated by the area’s stakeholders. These projects or plans include:

• The University of Miami Life Science Park – approximately 2 million square feet of biotech research facilities and ancillary retail. • The new Miami‐Dade County Department of Health Center of Excellence building, (already under construction) – a 64,000 square foot facility that will offer public health services including: immunizations, family planning, diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis and sexually transmitted diseases, vital records, pharmacy, and research and training. • The new Camillus House, (under construction) – a 3.1‐acre site with 340 beds for the chronically homeless, including social services and clinical treatment facilities. • The University of Miami/Jackson Memorial Hospital joint development – hotel/office/retail/conference center mixed use development. • A new 20‐year Master Plan for Jackson Memorial Hospital – includes expansion plans for the hospital. • A proposed , Medical Campus joint public‐private development partnership opportunity. • A proposed University of Miami Medical Practice Center.

January 2010 (revised) 9

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center A RAC designation of the area will increase development and redevelopment opportunities before triggering DRI thresholds, thereby enabling new projects to move forward through the permitting process more efficiently. These higher DRI thresholds will promote a mix of land uses in a walkable area supported by a multi‐modal transportation system including Metrorail, , Metrobus and a circulator system. The realization of the development and redevelopment plans, facilitated by the Health District RAC, will result in an increase of employment opportunities, additional opportunities for housing, and an expansion and upgrading of the existing health care and other institutional facilities within the District. This will ensure that the City of Miami continues to be a major contributor and leader in health care, research and education for the local community, the region, and the State of Florida.

DRI Thresholds

Rule 28‐24, F.A.C., regulates developments within the State of Florida that are presumed to be DRIs. In Miami‐Dade County, the following development thresholds (related to RACs) that are presumed to be DRIs are:

Table 3.0‐1 Miami‐Dade County DRI Thresholds

Development Threshold Residential 3,000 dwelling units Motel/Hotel 750 units Office 300,000 square feet of gross floor area Retail 400,000 square feet of gross floor area 145% of the sum of the percentages of Multiuse (2 or more uses) the applicable thresholds Multiuse (3 or more uses; including 160% of the sum of the percentages of residential with at least 15% of the the applicable thresholds County’s threshold)

January 2010 (revised) 10

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center Regional Activity Center DRI Thresholds

The RAC designation, pursuant to Section 380.06(2)(e), F.S., increases by 50 percent the applicable guidelines and standards with respect to residential, hotel, motel, office and retail developments. This achieves the following DRI use thresholds:

Table 3.0‐2 RAC DRI Thresholds (50% Increase)

Development RAC Threshold Residential 4,500 dwelling units Motel/Hotel 1,125 units Office 450,000 square feet of gross floor area Retail 600,000 square feet of gross floor area

The RAC designation, pursuant to Section 380.06(2)(e), F.S., increases by 100 percent the applicable guidelines and standards with respect to residential, hotel, motel, office and retail developments and multi‐use developments that provide at least 35 percent of the residential threshold. This achieves the following DRI thresholds:

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center 4.0 Health District RAC – Criteria

Pursuant to Rule 28‐24.014(10)(c)2, F.A.C., the City must demonstrate consistency with the following criteria in order to designate an area as a RAC:

• The area must be consistent with the local government comprehensive plan and future land use map intensities. • The area must routinely provide service to, or be regularly used by, a significant number of residents of more than one county. • The area must contain adequate public facilities as defined in Chapter 9J‐5, F.A.C., or committed public facilities, as identified in the capital improvements element of the local government comprehensive plan. • The area must be proximate and accessible to interstate or major arterial roadways.

The following sections present data and analysis that overwhelmingly demonstrate the eligibility and appropriateness of the proposed designation for the Health District RAC based on the above criteria.

4.1 Comprehensive Plan Consistency

Pursuant to the referenced F.A.C. rule, the area proposed for designation as a RAC must be consistent with the local government comprehensive plan and future land use map intensities. The following sections detail the consistency between the proposed Health District RAC and the City’s Comprehensive Plan and Future Land Use Map. The sections also highlight how the proposed Health District RAC furthers the objectives of the Regional Planning Council’s Strategic Regional Policy Plan and of the State Florida’s Comprehensive Plan.

The conclusion of this section is that the proposed Health District RAC is consistent with the long range plans for the City, the region, and the state.

4.1.1 Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan

As required pursuant to Rule 28‐24.014(10)(c)2, F.A.C., the proposed boundary for the Health District RAC is consistent with the City of Miami’s Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan. Specifically, the proposed Health District RAC furthers, or is consistent with, the following policies applicable to the respective elements of the Comprehensive Plan. It is important to note that the City received the Notice of Intent to find its most recent Comprehensive Plan update, with the exception of the Miami River Sub‐element, in compliance on January 9, 2009.

January 2010 (revised) 15

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center Future Land Use Element Policy LU-1.3.15: The City will continue to encourage a development pattern that enhances existing neighborhoods by developing a balanced mix of uses including areas for employment, shopping, housing, and recreation in close proximity to each other.

The Health District RAC continues to encourage a development pattern through a balanced mix of uses within close proximity to existing neighborhoods.

Policy LU-1.6.5: The City may continue to use special district designations as a land development regulation instrument for the purpose of accomplishing specific development objectives in particular areas of the city.

The Health District RAC is a special district designation consistent with the Civic Institution/Health District land development regulation district designation both with the main objective of promoting development and redevelopment that complements the health care, research, educational, social services and judicial facilities within this area.

Policy LU-3.1.2: Create Regional Activity Centers if appropriate in Urban Infill Areas and Urban Redevelopment Areas to facilitate mixed-use development, encourage mass transit, reduce the need for automobile travel, provide public open space and parks as required in the Parks, Recreation and Open Space element of this plan, provide incentives for quality development, and give definition to the urban form. The permitted uses and density and intensity of uses within a RAC shall be governed by the underlying future land use map designations of the subject property, except as otherwise limited by the designation of the RAC in the comprehensive plan. A designated RAC shall routinely provide service to, or be regularly used by, a significant number of citizens of more than one county; contain adequate existing public facilities as defined in Rule 9J-5, F.A.C., or committed public facilities, as identified in the capital improvements element of the City’s comprehensive plan; and shall be proximate and accessible to interstate or major arterial roadways.

This policy was adopted for the specific purpose of supporting RAC designation such as the one proposed for the Health District. The Health District RAC will fulfill all of the components of this policy and is consistent with the eligibility criteria. The area is designated as an Urban Infill Area and an Urban Redevelopment Area.

Transportation Element Policy TR-1.5.3: The City shall encourage the University of Miami/Jackson Memorial Hospital to participate in transportation management initiatives and strategies to assist in meeting the demands of the Health District/Civic Center expansion and helping to solve the consequent accessibility, traffic circulation and parking problems. The City shall encourage the Health District/Civic Center stakeholders and facility operators to work together to increase Metrorail ridership and utilization of the transit station to help decrease the need for excessive surface parking demand.

January 2010 (revised) 16

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center

The Health District stakeholders have been working together to proactively increase transit use within the District along with other activities to improve the access, circulation, and parking within the District. For example, University of Miami employees are given incentives to utilize mass transit. Future development within the Health District RAC will be transit‐oriented to increase Metrorail and transit utilization. The City is working on several other transportation initiatives including a streetcar and a local circulator service to increase the provision of transit within the area.

Policy TR-1.5.8: The City will ensure a stronger interface between the development or redevelopment of neighborhood activity centers and the public transportation system by establishing design guidelines for connectivity and transit infrastructure to be incorporated into the development/redevelopment program. The City shall require all new development and redevelopment in existing and planned transit corridors to be planned and designed to promote pedestrianism and transit usage through the following: [sub-policies A – G].

Consistent with this policy, a study of streetscapes, gateways, and signage to improve the pedestrian connections to the transit system (the “Basis of Design Review” study or “BODR” study) has been prepared by the City for the Health District. The BODR study also provides recommendations for linkages and wayfinding.

Housing Element Policy HO-1.1.9: The City's land development regulations will encourage high- density residential development and redevelopment in close proximity to Metrorail and Metromover stations.

The Health District RAC is consistent with this policy. The proposed RAC is directly served by the Civic Center Metrorail station, the third busiest station on the Metrorail line, just to the south is the Culmer station, and directly north of the boundary is the Santa Clara station. This ensures that development in the proposed

January 2010 (revised) 17

City of Miami Health District (Replacement Pages with updated FLUM) Regional Activity Center

RAC area is well served by Metrorail. The proposed Health District circulator will be operational in 2010 and its route is designed to use the Civic Center Metrorail Station as its hub. The circulator system will employ green technology and include four rubber‐tire circulators running on a two‐way loop with a 10‐minute headway and serving the front door of 14 major facilities and institutions and nine parking garages. Since the circulator will use existing streets, its routes can be easily expanded or changed to access future development.

4.1.2 Miami Future Land Use Plan

The Health District RAC is proposed as an overlay designation on the City of Miami’s Future Land Use Map. The currently adopted future land use designations within this overlay district will remain unchanged. Therefore, the Health District RAC is consistent with the City’s Comprehensive Land Use Plan.

Table 4.1.2‐1 presents the respective acreages and percentage distribution of the different future land uses within the proposed Health District RAC. As shown in this table, the predominant future land use designation is Major Institutional, Public Facilities, Transportation, and Utilities. The majority of the Health District stakeholders are located in this area. Figure 4.1.2‐1 shows the Future Land Use Designations in the Health District.

Table 4.1.2‐1 Acreage by Future Land Use Designation within RAC

Areas designated as "Major Institutional, Public Facilities, Transportation and Utilities" allow facilities for federal, state and local government activities, major public or private health, recreational, cultural religious or educational activities, and major transportation facilities and public utilities. Residential facilities ancillary to these uses are allowed up to a maximum density equivalent to “High Density Multifamily Residential” or, if applicable, the least intense abutting/adjacent residential zoning district, subject to the same limiting conditions.

• Industrial

Areas designated as “Industrial” allow a maximum floor area ratio (FAR) of 1.72 times the gross lot area of the subject property. The FAR may be increased; however, it may not exceed 2.5 times the gross lot area of the subject property.

4.1.3 South Florida Regional Planning Council Strategic Regional Policy Plan

The Strategic Regional Policy Plan for South Florida (SRPP) is the policy document that guides all of the South Florida Regional Planning Council's activities. The proposed Health District RAC is consistent with the SRPP. This section presents the specific goals of the SRPP and provides a brief explanation of the contribution or consistency of the Health District RAC with each goal.

January 2010 (revised) 21

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center Wages & Affordability GOAL 2: Increase employment opportunities and support the creation of jobs with better pay and benefits for the Region’s workforce.

The proposed Health District RAC will facilitate development and redevelopment within this area, which will result in the creation of additional employment opportunities that will directly benefit the Region’s workforce.

Development & Redevelopment GOAL 11: Encourage and support the implementation of development proposals that conserve the Region’s natural resources, rural and agricultural lands, green infrastructure and:

• Utilizes existing and planned infrastructure where most appropriate in urban areas; • Enhances the utilization of regional transportation systems; • Incorporates mixed-land use developments; • Recycles-existing developed sites; and • Provides for the preservation of historic sites.

The development within the proposed Health District RAC will utilize existing and planned infrastructure and is located in one of the City’s urban areas. The area utilizes the regional transportation system of Interstate 95 and SR 836, and is in close proximity to Metrorail, the proposed City of Miami Streetcar, and the Health District Circulator. The intent of the proposed Health District RAC is to encourage mixed‐use developments and fully utilize the existing infrastructure within the District.

Economic Expansion & Diversification GOAL 17: Maintain a competitive, diversified, and sustainable regional economy.

The proposed Health District RAC will provide for the future development and redevelopment within the District to ensure that the Health District maintain a competitive, diversified and sustainable economy. The additional employment opportunities that will be created will enhance the regional economy and help to make south Florida a stronger component of the state’s economy.

Connecting People, Places & Opportunities GOAL 20: Achieve long-term efficient and sustainable development patterns that protect natural resources and connect diverse housing, transportation, education, and employment opportunities.

The proposed Health District RAC, with its functionally integrated mix of land uses, supported by a multi‐modal transportation system that encourages the use of public transportation in a walkable area within the City, will further the goal of achieving an

January 2010 (revised) 22

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center efficient and sustainable development pattern. Additionally, this is already a densely populated and developed area, and future development will be able to efficiently utilize existing infrastructure.

4.1.4 State of Florida Comprehensive Plan

The comprehensive plan for the State of Florida, adopted pursuant to Chapter 187, F.S., provides the long‐range policies for the “orderly social, economic, and physical growth of the state.” The proposed Health District RAC is consistent with the State’s Comprehensive Plan. This section presents the specific goals of the Comprehensive Plan and their implementing policies, and provides a brief explanation of the consistency of the Health District RAC with said policies.

(4) Housing Policy 4.b.4 – Reduce the cost of housing construction by eliminating unnecessary regulatory practices which add to the cost of housing.

The proposed Health District RAC will reduce the costs of development approvals for larger mixed‐use projects by increasing development thresholds and exempting certain developments from the DRI review process. The reduction in time and costs for the development process will likely result in a reduction of the cost of acquisition associated with those projects.

(5) Health Policy 5.c.2.f – Government shall provide for the orderly growth and development of health care facilities and services through health planning, growth management, and regulation.

Consistent with this policy, the purpose of the proposed Health District RAC is to increase opportunities for the continued development and redevelopment of its principal health care, hospital and research facilities to occur in an orderly fashion while simplifying the regional and state review process.

(15) Land Use Policy 15.b.1 – Promote state programs, investments, and development and redevelopment activities which encourage efficient development and occur in areas which will have the capacity to service new population and commerce.

The proposed designation of the Health District as a RAC will support the programs, development and redevelopment activities in this area. The increased development thresholds will encourage a more efficient use of property and focus on health care, educational, and judicial related activities within an existing urban area capable of servicing both existing and future populations.

January 2010 (revised) 23

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center Policy 15.b.3 – Enhance the livability and character of urban areas through the encouragement of an attractive and functional mix of living, working, shopping and recreational activities.

The intent of the proposed Health District RAC is to facilitate the development and redevelopment of an identified urban neighborhood. The RAC will encourage a balanced mix of uses developed in a manner to enhance the quality of life and character of the surrounding urban area. The City of Miami and the district’s stakeholders have been diligently working in this direction and their efforts will be further supported by the proposed RAC designation.

(16) Urban and Downtown Revitalization Policy 16.b.9 – Encourage the development of mass transit systems for urban centers, including multimodal transportation feeder systems, as a priority of local, metropolitan, regional, and state transportation planning.

As previously stated, the area of the proposed Health District RAC is well served by several multi‐modal transportation systems and additional transit services including a proposed street car and a local circulator that will begin operations in 2009. The development contemplated for the proposed Health District RAC will provide additional ridership opportunities and encourage the expansion and enhancement of the existing transit services.

Policy 16.b.12 – Promote infill development and redevelopment as an important mechanism to revitalize and sustain urban centers.

The proposed designation of the Health District RAC will serve to promote infill development and redevelopment. One of the objectives of the Health District RAC is to revitalize this urban center and expand and upgrade the facilities located in it.

(21) The Economy Policy 21.b.1 – Attract new job-producing industries, corporate headquarters, distribution and service centers, regional offices, and research and development facilities to provide quality employment for the residents of Florida.

The Health District is of special interest because of the major healthcare, judicial, research, educational and social service institutions that provide the highest level of service to our community. The proposed RAC designation will attract new high quality job producing industries, particularly in the life sciences and research/development areas. New retail, hotels and research facilities will be attracted to this area because of the high level of employment in the area, the purchasing power of visitors and employees, and the quality of ongoing research. The Health District has a stable employment base and new employment opportunities will become available at all levels as new facilities and businesses are attracted to this area and existing institutions expand.

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center 4.2 Serve More than One County

One criterion for a RAC designation is that the area routinely provides service to, or is regularly used by, a significant number of residents of more than one county. The Health District is home to several of the nation’s premier healthcare and educational service providers, as well as to several county and state judicial and social services facilities, and is regularly used by a significant number of residents of more than one county. The district is home to three hospitals, three educational institutions, including the University of Miami – Miller School of Medicine, as well as courts and other criminal justice facilities. These facilities attract people from other parts of the country and the world.

A 2004 economic impact analysis of the Health District indicated that the Health District was home to 15 major institutional employers employing a total of 26,388 persons. Since that time, total employment in the area has increased significantly. As of October 2008, employment at these institutions had risen to at least 39,384 persons, which constitutes a 49 percent increase in amount of employees in the area for the four year period.

As part of the 2004 analysis, the major employers in the area provided information on where their employees resided. For this report, updated information on the location of employee residences was obtained again from the major employers, including:

• Jackson Memorial Hospital • University of Miami – Miller School of Medicine • Miami VA Healthcare System • Miami‐Dade County Office of the State Attorney • The Miami‐Dade County Public Defender’s Office • Miami‐Dade Community College, Medical Campus • Lindsey Hopkins Technical Education center • 11th Judicial Circuit Court of Florida • Miami‐Dade County Corrections and Rehabilitation Department • Children’s Home Society of Florida • Miami‐Dade County Health Department • Kristi House

January 2010 (revised) 26

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center This updated information was combined with the data gathered in 2004 and was analyzed to identify the county of residence for each employee. The table on the following page details the information on employee residence. The analysis revealed that close to 37,000, or 93 percent, of all Health District employees live in Miami‐Dade County. However, a number of employees working in the Health District live in other counties. Close to 2,000 people working in the District, or four percent, live in Broward County, and over 600, or two percent, reside in Palm Beach County. The remaining one percent of Health District employees, approximately 300, live either in other areas of Florida or in other states.

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center 4.3 Adequate Public Facilities

The proposed Health District RAC contains adequate public facilities as defined in Chapter 9J‐5, F.A.C., or committed public facilities, as identified in the capital improvements element of the local government comprehensive plan. It is important to restate that the proposed Health District RAC is an overlay designation that is not changing any of the underlying future land use designations at this time. Therefore, the data and analysis presented is based upon the City‘s recently adopted amendments based upon the adopted Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR). These amendments constitute a complete update of the entire Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan (MCNP) and received the Notice of Intent finding the Plan in compliance, for all elements except the Miami‐River Sub‐element, on January 9, 2009. The public facilities and their respective capital improvements elements are as follows:

• Transportation/Multimodal • Potable Water • Sanitary Sewer • Stormwater and Aquifer Recharge • Solid Waste • Recreation and Open Space • Public Schools

For each of the above public facilities, the capital improvements committed by the City, along with Miami‐Dade County, Miami‐Dade Public Schools, Florida Department of Transportation, and the Miami‐Dade Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) are presented within the appropriate section.

4.3.1 Transportation/Multimodal

Data Collection

The transportation study area for the proposed Health District RAC is bounded by SR 112 (Airport Expressway) to the north, SR 836 (Dolphin Expressway) to the south, Interstate 95 (I‐ 95) to the east and NW 27th Avenue to the west. Figure 4.3.1‐1 depicts the study area boundaries.

Traffic counts are included in Appendix 7‐a for each roadway segment along with the FDOT peak season factor category report. Transit ridership data are also included in Appendix 7‐a.

Programmed Transportation Improvements

The Miami‐Dade County Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) currently does not include capacity improvements to any of the transportation facilities within the study area. Miami‐Dade County’s 2030 Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) includes one Priority 2 improvement that is projected to enhance the capacity of the study area’s transportation facilities. Priority 2 improvements are targeted for implementation between 2010 and 2015. The Priority 2 project that will impact the proposed Health District RAC is defined as follows:

I‐95 Reversible Managed Lanes (95 Express) – The 95 Express project will provide directional managed lanes with two managed lanes in each direction. The project is

January 2010 (revised) 31

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center creating an additional travel lane in each direction by narrowing the inside median width and reducing the width of travel lanes. The resulting cross section provides two managed lanes and four general‐use lanes in both the northbound and southbound directions. Upon completion, the managed lanes will extend from SR 836/ north to Interstate 595 in Broward County.

Recently, phase 1A of the project was completed, which included the northbound managed lane improvements from State Road 112/ to the Golden Glades . Phase 1B will consist of the corresponding southbound managed lane improvements and the extension of the network south to SR 836/Interstate 395. Phase 2 will extend the managed lane system from the Golden Glades Interchange to north of Interstate 595 in Broward County.

Future Traffic Volumes

Year 2013 and 2030 peak hour volumes were obtained by developing growth factors for each roadway segment based on a comparison of traffic volumes obtained from the Miami Urbanized Area Transportation Study (MUATS) year 2000 and 2030 model networks. These growth factors were adjusted to forecast traffic growth from the existing year (2007 or 2009) to 2030 and then applied to the existing traffic volumes to establish 2013 traffic volumes. This same procedure was applied to develop volumes for 2030. Table 4.3.1‐2 presents the growth factors. MUATS volume plots are provided in Appendix 7‐b.

Future Transit Ridership

Year 2013 and 2030 peak hour transit ridership were forecast by developing an area‐wide growth factor based on a comparison of transit ridership in the study area obtained from the MUATS year 2000 (18,976 transit trips) and year 2030 (28,170 transit trips) model networks. A growth factor of 1.485 was calculated for the 30‐year horizon. The growth factor was adjusted to forecast transit ridership trips from 2008 to 2013 and then applied to existing (year 2008) transit ridership trips to establish 2013 transit ridership trips. This same procedure was applied to determine 2030 transit ridership trips. Included in Appendix 7‐c is the MUATS transit data.

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center Traffic Analysis

LOS Standard

The results of level of service (LOS) calculations are compared against the established standards to determine the adequacy of traffic performance. The proposed RAC lies inside the City of Miami’s urban infill area (UIA). The City of Miami has adopted the following minimum LOS standards for roadways within this area:

Transit Availability Peak Hour LOS Standard LOS E No Transit Service (100% of Capacity) LOS E+20 20‐minute Headway Transit Service within ½‐mile (120% of Capacity) Extraordinary Transit Service LOS E+50 ( or Express Bus) within ½‐mile (150% of Capacity)

Please note that SR 112 (Airport Expressway), SR 836 (Dolphin Expressway), and I‐95 are designated as part of the Florida Intrastate Highway System (FIHS). The FIHS is a statewide transportation network that provides for high‐speed and high‐volume traffic movements within the state. The City of Miami has adopted LOS D as its LOS standard for FIHS facilities, except where exclusive through lanes exist (i.e. 95 Express), FIHS may operate at LOS E.

LOS Analysis

LOS analysis was performed to assess the conditions in the study area for the current year, 2013, and 2030. Two analysis methodologies were utilized. The first examined only vehicular traffic capacity and the second, consistent with the methodology outlined in the MCNP, examined the person‐trip capacity (including transit) for roadway segments (corridors). The analyses of person‐trip volumes and person‐trip capacities account for both passenger vehicle and transit service. The LOS thresholds, measured in volume (v) to capacity (c) ratios, were developed from the 2002 version of FDOT’s Quality/Level of Service Handbook.

Vehicular Traffic LOS Analysis

Existing vehicular traffic volumes and levels of service are documented in Table 4.3.1‐3. All roadway segments operate within the adopted LOS standards under existing conditions. Vehicular traffic volumes and capacities for 2013 are documented in Table 4.3.1‐4. Year 2030 vehicular traffic volumes and capacities are documented in Table 4.3.1‐5. All roadway segments continue to exceed their adopted LOS standards under short (2013) and long (2030) term future conditions.

January 2010 (revised) 34

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center Person Trips LOS Analysis

Existing transit conditions were examined considering the ridership and capacity of the Miami‐ Dade Transit (MDT) service operating in the study area roadways. MDT staff was contacted to obtain the P.M. peak hour ridership and capacities for the transit routes, and average transit ridership and peak hour transit capacities were determined from the data provided.

P.M. peak hour ridership capacity was determined by calculating the average number of buses passing through the study area during one hour of the peak period (4:00 P.M. to 6:00 P.M.) and multiplying it by the capacity per vehicle on each route. TMD staff indicated that the bus routes on each corridor of the study area use the same transit vehicle, leading to the same capacity per vehicle on each route. The total transit vehicle capacity includes both standing and seating capacity.

Thirteen Miami‐Dade Metrobus routes and the Metrorail presently serve the SR 112, NW 36th Street, SR 836, Interstate 95, NW 7th Avenue, NW 12th Avenue, NW 17th Avenue and the NW 27th Avenue corridors within the study area. No MDT routes operate along SR 836. Table 4.3.1‐6 summarizes the existing transit ridership and capacity for these routes during the P.M. peak hour on an average weekday.

Existing person‐trips volumes and capacities are documented in Table 4.3.1‐7. Person‐trips analysis accounts for both passenger vehicle and transit service. Passenger vehicle person‐trips were determined by using a vehicle occupancy ratio of 1.4 persons per vehicle, for both volumes and capacities. Transit service person‐trips volumes and capacities were obtained from the analysis documented in Table 4.3.1‐6. As demonstrated in Table 4.3.1‐7, all roadway segments have available person‐trip capacity under existing conditions.

Year 2030 person‐trips volumes and capacities are documented in Table 4.3.1‐8 and 4.3.2‐9. Transit ridership for both future scenarios was determined by applying an adjusted growth factor obtained from the MUATS model to the existing transit ridership. All roadway segments are expected to continue to have available person‐trip capacity under future conditions.

Conclusion

This traffic analysis assessed major roadway segments in the study area identified, which included the roadways within and surrounding the proposed Health District RAC. The analysis included the assessment of vehicular traffic volume and person‐trips under existing and future (2030) conditions. The results of the traffic analysis demonstrate that the roadway segments within the study area operate at their adopted level of service standards and there is available person‐trip capacity for both existing and year 2030 conditions. Therefore, the transportation system meets the criteria of containing adequate transportation facilities as defined in Rule 9J‐ 5, F.A.C.

4.3.2 Potable Water

Potable Water Facilities

The City of Miami receives potable water service through the Miami‐Dade Water and Sewer Department (WASD). The water service area is divided into three subareas, with the proposed Health District RAC being located within the Hialeah‐Preston subarea. The water service area is comprised of dedicated low‐pressure pipelines, remote storage tanks, pumping facilities and high pressure systems, and serves the Cities of Miami, Miami Springs, Hialeah and portions of unincorporated northeastern Miami‐Dade County, generally north of .

The Hialeah‐Preston subarea is served by four water supply wellfields, with a total designed capacity of approximately 295 million gallons per day (mgd). There are also four abandoned wells that have been rehabilitated and could be used if an emergency arises. Table 4.3.2‐1 identifies the design capacity of each wellfield.

Table 4.3.2‐1 LOS Acreage Requirements

Wellfield Design Capacity Number of Wells Preston 53.28 7 Hialeah 12.54 3 Miami Springs 79.30 20 Northwest 149.35 15 Total 294.47 45 Medley(a) 43.20 4 (a)Recently restored wells available during an emergency

The Hialeah and John E. Preston water treatment plants (WTP) service the subarea. These facilities are adjacent to each other and share interconnected source water and finished water storage capacity. The Hialeah WTP has a current rated capacity of 60 mgd, with plans to rerate and upgrade to a capacity of 70 mgd, if necessary. The John E. Preston WTP has a current rated capacity of 165 mgd.

To offset the increased demand for potable water through 2030, WASD has planned several alternative water supply projects within the Hialeah‐Preston Service Area. The alternative water supply projects include the construction of a new upper Floridan

January 2010 (revised) 43

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center Aquifer reverse osmosis (RO) water treatment plant and two Floridan Aquifer blending wells to supply raw water to the Hialeah‐Preston Water Treatment Plant complex.

The RO plant is expected to be in the northern part of the County (i.e. Hialeah) and will be constructed with an initial capacity of 10 mgd, with phased capacity expansion. Final completion of the RO plant is scheduled for year 2028 with a total capacity of 17.5 mgd.

Blending wells are also being constructed at the Hialeah‐Preston Water Treatment Plant to increase the average annual daily flow (AADF) capacity by 4.7 MGD. This additional capacity is produced by blending the Floridan Aquifer water with the raw water supply. This project is currently under construction by the WASD and should be complete in 2010.

Potable Water LOS

The adopted potable water LOS is 155 gallons per capita per day. Potable water LOS standards have been met and are anticipated to remain in compliance through 2030. The WASD plans, and is in the process of undertaking, future conservation efforts and alternative water supply reuse/reclaimed water projects to maintain LOS standards and lessen per capita water usage. Table 4.3.2‐2 identifies projected water use per capita per day through 2030.

Table 4.3.2‐2 Water Use through 2030

Adjusted Finished Year Population Water Use (gpcd) 2007 2,250,944 154.52 2012 2,349,221 151.69 2017 2.487,519 149.97 2022 2,609,268 148.69 2027 2,731,018 147.82 2030 2,804,068 148.00

The Water and Sewer Department’s Waster Supply Facilities Work Plan also identifies the projected usage and population by municipality. Through 2030, the City of Miami is projected to maintain a potable water usage of 155 gallons per capita per day (gpcd).

Potable Water Connection Charge

January 2010 (revised) 44

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center The WASD charges a connection charge rate (impact fee) of $1.39 quarterly per average daily gallon. These funds help defray costs associated with usage of the infrastructure and services provided by WASD.

4.3.3 Sanitary Sewer

Sanitary Sewer Facilities

The sanitary sewer network within the City of Miami is an interconnected county‐wide system. The City’s Departments of Public Works and Planning and Zoning cooperate with Miami‐Dade County Water and Sewer Department to jointly develop methodologies and procedures for biannually updating estimates of the system’s capacity and the demand for sanitary sewer service.

According to the County, the system wide capacity of the County’s wastewater treatment system is 352.50 mgd, which exceeded average daily demand of 310.81 mgd. The County has maintained adequate system capacity to meet demand. The County has programmed $1.3 billion in capital sanitary sewer projects to ensure its ability to continue to provide the capacity needed to address both the existing and projected demand for sanitary sewer service.

Sanitary Sewer LOS

The City has met its LOS standard for sanitary sewer and does not anticipate any LOS issues through 2030. The County’s programmed capital improvements and the City’s continued implementation of land development regulations, permitting processes, and the concurrency management system should ensure that the adopted Sanitary Sewer Level of Service Standard is met.

4.3.4 Stormwater and Aquifer Recharge

Stormwater Facilities

Under the City’s Concurrency Management System, the issuance of any development permit requires compliance with the stormwater LOS standard of a one‐in‐five‐year storm event while incorporating water quality considerations. The City ensures that adequate storm sewer capacity exists to meet the adopted LOS Standard.

Additionally, the City has a development impact fee which assesses new development with its fair share of the costs associated with providing infrastructure to meet increased demand.

January 2010 (revised) 45

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center Stormwater LOS

The City continues to meet its LOS standard for storm sewer capacity and does not anticipate LOS issues through 2030. To continue to enhance its public stormwater facilities, the City has programmed several stormwater related projects in its capital improvement program including a Storm Drainage Master Plan Update at a cost of $600,000.

Aquifer Recharge

The City will work to enhance the aquifer recharge through the implementation of its 10‐year water supply plan, consistent with Miami‐Dade County and the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD).

4.3.5 Solid Waste

Solid Waste Facilities

The City’s Solid Waste Department is charged with the collection and transfer of solid waste in the City. Miami‐Dade County provides the City with facilities for the disposal of solid waste. Miami‐Dade County has programmed more than $75 million in solid waste disposal projects to address demand and to expand capacity.

Solid Waste LOS

Solid waste collection services shall maintain a LOS standard of seven pounds per person per day and/or at the generation rate of 1.28 tons per resident per year. The County’s solid waste disposal system has the capacity to meet solid waste disposal demand through 2011. The City continues to maintain its LOS Standard for solid waste. The City does not anticipate LOS issues through 2030. At this time the City has programmed approximately $2.5 million for solid waste collection equipment.

Solid Waste Impact Fee

The City, through its permitting processes, land development regulations, and concurrency management system, ensures that adequate solid waste collection capacity exists to meet the adopted LOS Standard. The City has a development impact fee which assesses new development with its fair share of the costs associated with providing solid waste infrastructure and services to meet increased demand.

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center 4.3.6 Recreation and Open Space

Recreation and Open Space Facilities

The City of Miami’s Department of Parks and Recreation maintains a system of over 100 parks and park sites providing 704 acres of recreation and open space to City residents, visitors and businesses. These parks include:

• 2 dog parks • 6 special use parks • 8 nature parks • 27 mini‐parks • 32 community/neighborhood parks

Recreation and Open Space LOS

The City’s adopted LOS standard for recreation open space is 1.3 acres of public parks per 1,000 residents. According to the 2000 Census, the City of Miami has 362,470 residents. The City of Miami currently provides 1.94 acres of recreation and open space per 1,000 residents. The City has met its LOS standard for recreation open space between 1995 and 2005, and has not had to delay or prohibit development or redevelopment due to recreation and open space issues. As demonstrated in Table 4.3.5‐1, the City will continue to meet the adopted LOS standard through 2025 based on the City’s population projections.

Table 4.3.5‐1 LOS Acreage Requirements

Year Population Acreage Required 2000 362,470 471 2005 368,479 479 2015 380,921 495 2025 391,912 509

The City, through its permitting processes, land development regulations, and concurrency management system, will continue to ensure that adequate recreation and open space acreage exists to meet the adopted LOS standard of 1.3 acres per 1,000 residents.

Recreation and Open Space Impact Fee

To ensure that the Recreation and Open Space LOS standard continues to be maintained, the City has a development impact fee which assesses new development

January 2010 (revised) 47

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center with its fair share of the costs associated with providing infrastructure and services to meet increased demand. In addition, Miami‐Dade County’s “Building Better Communities” bond is anticipated to provide additional funding for park projects in the City. These provisions will apply to future development within the proposed Health District RAC.

4.3.7 Public Schools

Public School Attendance

Miami‐Dade Public Schools (“School District”) identifies the public schools that students will attend using geographic attendance boundaries. The proposed Health District RAC is located within the attendance boundaries of the public schools referenced in Table 4.3.7‐1 below. The public school students residing within the proposed Health District RAC will attend these schools, with Miami Jackson Senior High serving as the primary high school. Only a small portion of the proposed Health District RAC, located between NW 7th Avenue and I‐95, is currently served by Booker T. Washington Senior High. Although these schools are designated to serve current and future students residing within the proposed Health District RAC, the attendance boundaries are subject to change by the School District. Boundary changes are generally due to factors such as statutory requirements to maximize school utilization or shifting capacity to accommodate new student growth.

Washington Senior High Miami, Florida 33136 Source: Miami‐Dade County Public Schools GIS, January 2009.

Public School Utilization

To determine the available capacity of a particular school, the School District compares the school’s enrollment to its respective Florida Inventory of School Houses (FISH) capacity and calculates the school’s utilization percentage. The adopted level of service (LOS) standard for all Miami‐Dade County Public School facilities is 100% utilization of

January 2010 (revised) 48

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center FISH capacity (including relocatable classrooms). The LOS standard is applicable in each public school concurrency service area (CSA), which are defined as the public school attendance boundaries and established by the School District. Table 4.3.7‐2 indicates the 2008‐09 enrollment, FISH capacity and utilization of the schools identified in Table 4.3.7‐1.

Table 4.3.7‐2 Enrollment, FISH Capacity and Utilization

The schools currently identified to serve students within the proposed Health District RAC are operating well below the adopted LOS standard of 100%. Due to the existing surplus of available capacity, no capacity improvements are programmed for these schools within the School District’s 2008‐2009 Facilities Work Program.

Public School Concurrency

As of April 25, 2008, development applications submitted to the City of Miami which include a residential component are reviewed for compliance with school concurrency requirements. A school concurrency review is not necessary at this time for the proposed RAC designation, since the proposed Health District RAC serves as an overlay designation and the land uses will remain as identified on the City’s Future Land Use Map. As residential development is contemplated within the proposed RAC, it will be tested for school concurrency compliance as a part of the review and approval process administered by the City of Miami in conjunction with the School District.

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center 4.4 Proximity and Access to Interstate/Arterial Roadways

The final criterion is that the area is proximate and accessible to interstate or major arterial roadways. As illustrated in the following map, the proposed Health District RAC is immediately adjacent to Interstate 95 and SR 836 (Dolphin Expressway). The area is accessed by two interchanges with SR 836 that are directly connected to Interstate 95 to the east.

The area is also well served by an integrated street network which includes arterial roadways and local access streets. A major focus of the transportation system in this area is on multi‐modal transportation options. The previous section discussed the performance of the transportation system within the District, the projected performance and the committed capital improvement projects.

Figure 4.4‐1 Street Network

January 2010 (revised) 50

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center

Just as important as the Health District’s roadway system is the District’s multimodal transportation system. The area is well served by several transit services including Metrorail and Miami‐Dade Transit’s (MDT) Metrobus. There are also additional transportation services being planned which include a streetcar and a local circulator service. The Health District is served by 10 existing MDT routes and one Metrorail route, including the Civic Center Metrorail Station, located at the core of the Health District. Figure 4.4‐2 and the corresponding table illustrate the transit routes and the schedule of operation for the MDT Metrobus and Metrorail routes currently serving the Health District.

The City of Miami, working with the Health District stakeholders, is strategically planning the transportation system for the District. The planning efforts are focusing on the transit services, connections, gateways, wayfinding, and parking. Associated efforts also include improving the pedestrian environment by providing a dedicated pedestrian dan bicycle path, a health walk, and addressing the aesthetics of the corridors within the Health District.

5.0 Health District RAC – Goals

The purpose and justification of the proposed Health District RAC is further reinforced by the four goals the City set out to achieve through the designation of this regional activity center, which are as follows:

• Goal 1: Establish a Functional Land Planning Unit • Goal 2: Provide for Mixed‐Use Development Opportunities • Goal 3: Enhance the Transit‐Oriented Development • Goal 4: Create Quality Employment Opportunities

Each of these goals highlights the benefits and direction of the RAC and its support of the Health District.

Goal 1: Establish a Functional Land Planning Unit

The proposed Health District RAC furthers the established functional planning unit of the Health District designation within the MCNP. The District establishes standards and principles that promote flexibility of design and permits planned diversification and integration of uses and structures. The design standards and development procedures for the Regional Activity Center are further defined and regulated through the City’s Zoning Code.

Goal 2: Provide for Mixed‐Use Development Opportunities

The Health District RAC is a 415‐acre area in the City of Miami’s urban core. The area is a mixture of public, institutional, educational, commercial, and residential uses. The proposed RAC designation is a valuable tool to facilitate the development and redevelopment of this area to promote its function as a mixed‐use center of the community.

The future land use designations within the proposed Health District RAC provide opportunities for a mixture of high density and intensity uses in the majority of land use categories within the Health District. This is further supported by the City’s Zoning Code which provides opportunities for a balanced mix of uses.

To complement the land use and zoning provisions, the master plans for many of the Health District stakeholders propose a balance of uses including residential, office, retail, cultural, recreational and entertainment facilities, hotels and motels; major institutional and public facilities, including research facilities, and appropriate industrial

January 2010 (revised) 53

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center activities. All of these components combine to provide the greatest opportunity for a mixed‐use development of the area.

Goal 3: Enhance Transit‐Oriented Development

As development has occurred in the Miami Health District, a major focus of the City has been to reduce and/or better manage regional traffic congestion in and around the Health District by enhancing public transportation, and encouraging pedestrian and bicycle circulation. Public transportation plays a significant role in managing the existing and potential vehicle trips to and from the District. The Health District is currently served by MDT Metrobus, the Metrorail, and additional transportation services are being planned including a street car and a local circulator service. The proposed street car and local circulator services will only enhance the existing public transportation and provide a finer network of mobility.

Goal 4: Creation of Quality Employment Opportunities

Future development projects within the proposed Health District RAC are expected to create thousands of jobs accessible to residents of the Health District Regional Activity surrounding neighborhoods and Center the region. The Health District is within the Allapattah neighborhood and is also adjacent or in close proximity to the , Overtown, and neighborhoods. All of these areas have suffered from disinvestment and job loss over the years. Development within the Health District will provide employment opportunities and economic growth to help stabilize the existing neighborhoods. The development within the proposed Health District RAC will further enhance the local economies and livability of the surrounding neighborhoods, create thousands of new jobs, and promote further revitalizatione of th area.

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center 6.0 City of Miami Zoning Code – Health District

6.1 Current Zoning – Ordinance 11000

The majority of the Health District is located within the SD‐10 Medical Health Care, Hospital and Research Park Overlay District, also titled the Jackson Memorial Hospital Medical Center Overlay District, as illustrated in Figure 6.1‐1. The area is of special and substantial public interest because it comprises various hospital and health care facilities and related functions, the majority of which are governed by the Public Health Trust of Dade County and the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, or other entities which together provide the highest level of medical care to the public and private patients of Dade County and the City of Miami.

The intent of the SD‐10 Overlay District is to support the delivery of health care to the community. The public interest of health care needs warrant certain allowances for increased development intensities as permitted within the SD‐10 Overlay District. To qualify for the increased intensity, the underlying zoning designation of the site must be Government and Institutional (G/I) or Liberal Commercial (C‐2), and the proposed uses must be government or institutional. The development standards for the SD‐10 Overlay District include increased intensities in the areas of height, floor area ratio, and building footprint.

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center Figure 6.1‐1 Ordinance 11000 – Zoning Atlas

January 2010 (revised) 56

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center 6.2 Proposed Zoning – Miami 21

The City is also in the process of replacing the Zoning Code (Ordinance 11000) with “Miami of the 21st Century (Miami 21). Miami 21 entails a holistic approach to land use and urban planning. It provides a clear vision for the City that is supported by specific guidelines and regulations so that future generations will reap the benefits of well‐ balanced neighborhoods and rich quality of life. Miami 21 takes into account all of the integral factors that make each area within the City a unique, vibrant place to live, learn, work and play. The Miami 21 Code is a form‐based code guided by tenets of New Urbanism and Smart Growth.” (City of Miami, http://www.miami21.org/) It also adopts the Miami 21 Atlas, which acts as the official Zoning Atlas for the Miami 21 area. The Miami 21 Atlas designates a Transect Zone for all lands within the City. Figure 6.2‐1 below indicates the proposed Miami 21 designations within the area encompassed by the Health District RAC.

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center The majority of the Health District is proposed as CI‐HD (Civic Institution‐Health District) The CI‐HD Zone is reserved for sites and buildings primarily dedicated to functions of culture, education, government, public transit, and public parking.

6.3 Conclusion

The proposed Health District RAC is compatible with both the existing zoning under Ordinance 11000 and the proposed zoning of Miami 21. Both zoning codes were drafted to support the development of the Health District and its focus on health care and other supporting service providers.

January 2010 (revised) 58

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center 7.0 Intergovernmental Coordination

It is important to note that the proposed Miami Health District RAC designation maintains the City’s intergovernmental coordination provisions. The proposed RAC designation also maintains the current provisions for a development’s contribution to public facilities required to maintain the City’s level of service standards. The proposed Health District RAC designation will facilitate the development opportunities for the Health District and increase the City’s ability to enhance its urban centers.

The conclusion is that the City’s zoning and regulatory process anticipates potential projects of a higher intensity and has regulations and review processes in place to ensure that the projects address the health, safety, and general welfare of the public. The City’s process achieves an intergovernmental review that includes coordination between the city, county, regional, state, and federal agencies early and often during the review and approval of a proposed project.

January 2010 (revised) 59

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center 8.0 State Legislative Support

The State of Florida has a variety of initiatives to support redevelopment and infill development and has taken an active role to shift development patterns and promote more efficient and sustainable development. Redevelopment and infill projects allow for the preservation of existing rural and agricultural lands and place new development in areas already served by public services and infrastructure.

Specifically, the State of Florida recognizes there are different planning and growth management needs and strategies dependent on the location within the State. The Alternative State Review Process Pilot Program (Section 163.32465, F.S.) provides an expedited process for comprehensive plan amendments in Miami. The program recognizes that the needs and resources of urban areas as well as their planning and growth management approaches are different from those of rural areas and that urban areas require a reduced level of state oversight because of their high degree of urbanization and planning capabilities and that urban infill and redevelopment should be encouraged in these urban areas.

The Pilot Program is consistent with the expedited process for the RAC by recognizing the urban context and providing a more efficient process to fully support urban infill initiatives.

January 2010 (revised) 60

City of Miami Health District Regional Activity Center 9.0 Conclusion

As demonstrated in this report, the proposed Health District RAC designation meets all of the criteria of Rule 28‐24.014(10)(c)2, F.A.C. for eligibility.

F.A.C. Criteria Health District RAC

The area must be consistent with the local government Yes comprehensive plan and future land use map intensities.

The area routinely provides service to, or is regularly used by, a Yes significant number of residents of more than one county.

The area contains adequate public facilities as defined in Chapter 9J‐5, F.A.C., or committed public facilities, as identified Yes in the capital improvements element of the local government comprehensive plan.

The area is proximate and accessible to interstate or major Yes arterial roadways.

The designation of the Health District RAC will more effectively and efficiently support the goals of the premier educational, research, medical, judicial and service facilities within the Miami Health District to better serve the citizens of the City of Miami, Miami‐ Dade County and the State of Florida. From multimodal transportation, to the creation of a more cohesive, walkable district, the proposed Health District RAC designation will support more development and employment opportunities in the Miami Health District.

Based on the information provided in this report, the City of Miami respectfully requests the Department of Community Affairs (DCA) issue a finding of consistency for the proposed ordinance designating the Miami Health District as a Regional Activity Center.

APPENDIX 2

MEMORANDUM

TO: MR. TIM STILLINGS – KIMLEY HORN FROM: TONY VILLAMIL / CHARLES K. YAROS SUBJECT: UM HEALTH DISTRICT EMPLOYMENT DATA DATE: NOVEMBER 18, 2008

In 2004, The Miami Partnership undertook an economic impact analysis of the “Health District.” This area is immediately to the northwest of downtown Miami, and is home to multiple hospitals, several schools and educational institutions including the University of Miami Medical Campus, as well as courts and other criminal justice facilities. This analysis identified 15 major employers in the area.

In 2004, these 15 employers had 26,388 employees. Since that time total employment in the area has increased significantly. As of October 2008, employment at these organizations located in the Health District included at least 39,384 employees.

As part of the 2004 study these major employers provided information on where their employees resided. For this report updated information on the location of employee residences was obtained again from the largest employers. Jackson Memorial Hospital, The University of Miami (UM), and the Miami Veterans Health Center all provided information. This updated information was combined with the data from 2004 for the remaining employers and was analyzed to identify the county of residence for each employee. Table 1 on page 3 details the available information on employee residence. Our analysis found that close to 37,000, or 93 percent, of all Health District employees live in Miami-Dade County.

A number of employees working in the Health District live in other counties. Close to 2,000 people working in the District, or 4 percent, live in Broward County, and over 600, or 2 percent, reside in Palm Beach County. The remaining 1 percent of Health District employees, approximately 300, live either in other areas of the state or outside of Florida.

It should be noted that this analysis excludes two major groups for whom commercial and other activities of the Health District are significant. The following paragraphs describe the groups.

The first major group of individuals for whom residence information is not available are employees of the numerous small businesses located within the bounds of the area, which include small businesses situated in the Health District, workers employed by contractors and others who provide goods and services to major employers. It includes lawyers and other criminal justice and legal professionals whose work is tied to the courts and other judicial facilities located within the Health District.

2655 LeJeune Road, Suite 608, Coral Gables, FL 33134 |T: 305-461-3811 |F: 305-461-3822 |E: [email protected] |W: www.weg.com

The second major group of people for whom residence data is not available comprises medical patients and others who come to the Health District to obtain health care and other services. The UM Miller School of Medicine is located in the Health District and draws patients from throughout the world for medical care. Current data from the Miami Veterans Health Center shows that in Fiscal 2008 (10/01/2007-09/30/2008) over 50,000 veterans residing throughout the came to their facility for medical care.

In closing, it should be noted that many educational and research facilities are located within the Health District. These include public schools, the Lindsey Hopkins Technical Education Center, the Miami-Dade College Medical Campus, and the UM Medical Campus. The UM Medical Campus houses the Miller School of Medicine, the Nursing School and several advanced scientific research institutes. Therefore, the Health District can be classified as a cluster of knowledge-based industries involved in medical services, research and educational activities.

APPENDIX 4 Sec. 610. SD-10 Medical Health Care, Hospital and Research Park Overlay District. (Ord. No. 10749, § 1, 6-28-90; Ord. No. 10863, § 1, 3-28-91; Ord. No. 12722, § 2, 7-28-05)

Sec. 610.1. Intent. This district is of special and substantial public interest because it comprises various hospital and health care facilities and related facilities, the majority of which are governed by the Public Health Trust of Dade County, or by the University of Miami School of Medicine, or other entities which together provide the highest level of medical care to the public and private patients of Dade County and the City of Miami. It is the intent of this district to encourage the use of public transportation--Metrorail, Metromover and Metrobus-- through incentives such as a shuttle system and the incentives provided in this district. Because of its central location and accessibility to public transportation and because of the unique nature of this coordinated health care delivery area, with the resulting unique problems and characteristics relating to parking spaces, traffic flow, directional signs, and landscaping, it is the intent of this district, insofar as possible, to treat all the land in the district as a single entity, rather than individual parcels. (Ord. No. 10749, § 1, 6-28-90; Ord. No. 10863, § 1, 3-28-91)

Sec. 610.2. Effect. The effect of these regulations shall be to modify regulations within portions of the existing zoning districts indicated in the official City of Miami zoning atlas which are located within the boundaries of this district and have an underlying G/I or C-2 zoning district classifications, and to address the particular needs created by the delivery of health care to the community. Properties located within the SD-10 Overlay District boundaries, which do not have an underlying G/I or C-2 zoning classification, and are not proposed for government or institutional uses, shall not qualify for the increased FAR and increased MUSP threshold provisions included within this section 610 as specified below. Intensity: Minimum Lot Size: Ten thousand (10,000) square feet). Setbacks: Front, ten feet (10'0"); side, no setback required or the same setback as the abutting district, whichever of the two is greater; rear, ten feet (10'0") or the same setback as the abutting district, whichever of the two is greater. Minimum Lot Width: Fifty feet (50'0"). Height: Unlimited. Floor Area Ratio: Maximum of three (3.0) times the gross lot area. Building Footprint: Maximum of six-tenths (0.60) times the gross lot area. Green Space: Minimum of one-tenth (0.10) times the gross lot area. (Ord. No. 10749, § 1, 6-28-90; Ord. No. 10863, § 1, 3-28-91; Ord. No. 12722, § 2, 7-28-05; Ord. No. 12774, § 2, 2-23-06)

Sec. 610.3. Class II Special Permit. 610.3.1. When required. No building permit shall be issued within the boundaries of the SD-10 district affecting the height, bulk, or location of any structure in excess of ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00) or the location or relocation or enlargement of vehicular ways or parking areas, outside public rights-of-way, without the issuance of a Class II Special Permit. A Class II Special Permit shall be required prior to approval of any permit (except special permits pursuant to article 13) affecting the height, bulk, location or exterior configuration of any existing building; or for the erection of any new building; or for the location, relocation or substantial exterior alteration of any structure, sign (except real estate signs), awning, landscaping, parking area or vehicular way visible from a public street or waterfront walkway. 610.3.2. Considerations in making Class II Special Permit determinations. The purpose of the Class II Special Permit shall be to ensure conformity of the application with the expressed intent of this district, with the general considerations listed in section 1305, and with the special considerations listed below. 1. Rooftop parking or mechanical equipment and utility service areas visible from nearby buildings shall be appropriately screened with landscape or architectural materials. 2. Public access to public plazas and walkways shall be provided. 3. Pedestrian walkway connections shall be provided between parallel public streets. 4. In general, principal pedestrian entrances to buildings shall be along street frontages with major traffic volumes, and vehicular entrances shall be on streets less intensively used for through traffic, both to separate pedestrian from vehicular circulation and to minimize vehicular friction along major streets. 5. Offstreet parking and loading shall generally be within enclosed structures which shall either be underground or, if aboveground, shall be designed to provide a minimal visual impact, well integrated with the principal structures. Unenclosed vehicular parking and loading in any location visible from a public street shall be appropriately screened from surrounding rights-of- way. 6. Except for portions authorized by special permit for vehicular access, required yards and adjacent sidewalk areas within the public right-of-way shall be appropriately landscaped and provided with pedestrian ways in accord with the following design standards: a. Street trees shall be provided in the sidewalk area at a maximum spacing of thirty (30) feet. Such trees shall be a minimum, of fifteen (15) feet in height, three-inch caliper, and seven (7) feet of clear trunk; unless a master plan is approved through the Class II Special Permit process which provides for different specifications. b. Paving materials and patterns shall be aesthetically harmonious and consistent with adjacent or nearby properties and shall meet established sidewalk grades. c. Street furniture shall be provided which may include benches, trash receptacles, pedestrian walkway lighting, bus shelters, sculpture, public information kiosks, and the like. These may be located in the pedestrian area as long as pedestrian flow patterns are continuous. d.

Class II Special Permit determinations for any government or institutional use shall be made based on such owner or owners continuously maintaining a master plan designating: the location and number of all present and future parking spaces, together with the location and floor area of all present and proposed buildings, the location and number of access drives to public streets, internal and merging traffic and circulation, the painted or curbed separation of vehicular and pedestrian traffic, and the arrangement and circulation of parking areas, on file with the planning department. Materials to be submitted with applications for Class II Special Permits shall include such site plans, landscaping plans, building elevations, surveys, and such reports and surveys as inclusive of: (a) Hourly/daily parking utilization throughout the district; (b) Direction of approach; (c) Vehicle occupancy; (d) Ridership surveys; (e) Shuttle bus/taxi utilization; and (f) Metrorail/Metrobus utilization which may be required to make determinations in the particular case as to conformity with the standards established below. (Ord. No. 10749, § 1, 6-28-90; Ord. No. 10771, § 1, 7-26-90; Ord. No. 10863, § 1, 3-28-91; Ord. No. 12467, § 2, 12-18-03; Ord. No. 12722, § 2, 7-28-05)

Sec. 610.4. Special rules concerning computation of parking requirements. All parking requirements within the district shall be governed exclusively by the standard ratio of one (1) parking space for each eight hundred (800) square feet of construction regardless of type of use. All parking spaces available throughout the district under a single ownership or as a shared component between more than one owner shall be applicable towards satisfaction of the parking requirements. The computation of parking requirements for new permits shall be calculated as follows: The floor area of all buildings presently within the district shall be added to that of the proposed structure. The one (1) to eight hundred (800) parking ratio shall be applied to the resulting figure to obtain the total number of parking spaces required within the district. To obtain the number of parking spaces that must be provided in connection with the new structure, the total number of parking spaces existing within the district shall be deducted from the total number of required spaces; provided that the bus, taxi, and vehicular parking spaces in the public right-of- way within the district shall not be included in the total number. All handicapped parking spaces available throughout the district shall be counted in satisfaction of the handicapped parking requirements attendant to all new permits. (Ord. No. 10749, § 1, 6-28-90; Ord. No. 10863, § 1, 3-28-91; Ord. No. 12467, § 2, 12-18-03; Ord. No. 12722, § 2, 7-28-05)

Sec. 610.5. Major Use Special Permits in the SD-10 District. Irrespective of the thresholds established in Article 17, a Major Use Special Permit shall be required in the SD-10 District for the thresholds as follows: 1. For all buildings and uses in the SD-10 district, a Major Use Special Permit shall be required for any development involving in excess of five hundred thousand (500,000) square feet of floor area. 2. For hospital buildings located in the SD-10 district, a Major Use Special Permit shall be required for any development in excess of eight hundred fifty thousand (850,000) square feet of gross lot area. 3. For any single use or combination of uses requiring or proposing to provide in excess of a net increase of one thousand (1,000) off-street parking spaces. (Ord. No. 12722, § 2, 7-28-05)

Sec. 610.6. Permitted Uses. Except as otherwise provided herein, within this district all commercial, office, sales, display and service activities shall be conducted within completely enclosed buildings, except in connection with outdoor areas, commercial parking lots; or as approved in connection with special permits; otherwise there shall be no unenclosed storage or display of merchandise, materials or equipment. Same as for O (Office) district and, in addition: 1. Hospitals (including all such associated uses as listed in the Florida Statutes and Administrative Code governing Hospitals and Licensure, as amended). 2. Emergency Rooms. 3. Clinics. 4. Laboratories, medical, research and clinical; including biotechnical laboratories and research facilities. 5. Education facilities. Conditional principal and access uses: 1. Uses and structures that are customarily accessory and clearly incidental to permitted uses and structures, including helistops, heliports and helipads to serve the medical facilities. 2. Medical uses. Irrespective of the underlying requirements for special exception permits, introduction of new medical uses and expansion of medical uses may be permitted by Class II Special Permit. 3. Irrespective of the limitations on accessory retail uses as specified in Section 906.7, retail and service uses (including restaurants) that are located within a mixed use development may open to the outside to serve the general public, by Class II Special Permit; such uses may not be free-standing retail or service uses but must be a component of a mixed-use development.
