These people are on their way up. Sugar mill. I never saw, it was about 70 ears old. But going back to that. Miami is in a tropical area. A semi-tropical area. And the everglades. If you glide over the everglades you see how the everglades, sometimes it is ugly and sometimes it is pretty. The vegetation here is funny, too. We at some point we have so much water and at other points we have no water at all. That is the whole challenge of the miami area. We always like to look good. With that in mind there are many diseases that kill the plants. Fighting off these things. And is the truth. All kinds of trees. The famous fly that killed the vegetation. It also killed the avocado. We need to fight all of them. It behooves us to have good, nice looking vegetation all over the place and promote that. We need to look good we are a tourism place. Let me tell you. Many years ago I think I am the only one remaining here. We start of it we started trying to do that. And she meant was everywhere and that is not the way to go. You got to balance the vegetation with the asphalt. So the beautification think is crucial that is what I am trying to say it my way. You need to balance one thing with another. It is a great thing to talk about beautification. And the need for that. The tourism. >> we agree. Let's go for the kids. Right? Okay. Thank you. >> Chair Diaz: thank you, senator. And with that I do not think there's anything else. Mr. Attorney we have heard from my colleagues and so on. Commissioner regalado? >> Raquel Regalado: just as commissioner heyman thank you for your thoughtfulness. If I do not see another palm tree I will be fne. We need to move away from this and look at native plants that provide us with some value. And in this case provide the residence in the area with a bit of a buffer. They can be beautiful no more plm trees. >> correction, correction. Balance. >> thank you. >> Chair Diaz: with that to the applicant I think you got a clear message. We need serious shrubbery you make sure you distance yourself through ring space. And as my colleagues said the palm trees -- you can get better local not any type of shrubbery or plant. I look forward to that. Do I have a motion commissioner regalado? >> Raquel Regalado: so moved. >> to confirm the motion that is to affirm with the additional landscaping? >> Chair Diaz::for clarifying the motion I have a first and a second. Anybody oppose? None. Let's move on. Thank you, everybody. Item 4. Item 4. >> commissioner I will read the item. >> Chair Diaz: sir, they then item number four jdp equities, llc z2020000017 2400 protest no waiver. I would like to make a brief comment. We have seen items, we have seen controversial items. Usually we do not see this many protest. This is a significant number of protest. Staff did look at them and there were some duplicate protest we found. Additionally various properties had a multitude of protest. So although we have 2400 individual protest. Not necessarily reflect the total number of actual people protesting. And their relation to property within the proximity of the application. >> Chair Diaz: thank you, be there. Point of clarification? >> is this an item we have seen before where people were giving to other people? Thank you. >> Mr. Chair, as you organize the public hearing there is an attorney to represent the objectors we should let him go last. He has an expert. >> Chair Diaz: I know the gentleman he is a good man but I will go last. I feel the gentleman he is a good gentleman but I will let him go last because he is first. >> yes but the applicant. >> Chair Diaz: with that let's start this off. I have Mr. Pablo perez adias going first. That I have luis rodez, amma readen in that order. Please date again you have two minutes to speak. State your name, address and once again. If you are against your will say the same thing. And supporting those on the gas but we will accept it and understand. And that will save a lot of time on this and I do not want to lose a quorum in the middle of this. With that please proceed, sir. >> good evening my name is pablo perez adias at 8330 83rd street miami florida 33143. I have lived there 17 years. And I suppose this application. I work in healthcare I would like to give you a healthcare analogy. The state and a hospital emergency room and the patient comes in. She is not doing well at all. She feels horrible but we treat her, stabilize her. She has a severe peanut allergy. And all kinds of warnings and checks. We do not feature peanut butter, roasted peanut butter cookie to keep her safe. The government keeps from harmful development. And I oppose the application. The covenant was important when it was created. It is more important now. You May have heard in the past you May have heard the developer back to our analogy. The roasted butter are both options that they can be harmful and lethal. Again I oppose the application. I urge you to deny it and thank you for your time. >> Chair Diaz: thank you, sir. Next person. >> hello I am louise felt this I have lived in king street since 1989. I am on 82nd corporate please retain the 1973 government and deny the mcd later you will hear from tucker gibbs and tyler and I agree with everything they will say. Congratulations to the new commissioners especially district 7 raquel regalado with look forward to your support. The covenant protection to require development to be substantially compatible with our community and office of protection. And what continues to be a quiet self-contained quiet residential area. And for the reported covenant. This is still a neighborhood retail center. And you can allow up to six stories. But towards the one haven to fit despite covid-19 have submitted 2500 objection against the application letter. And surrounding community totaling 3200 units. Residential units. And understand our community wanted to retain the neighborhood center. In April 2019 denied the zoning application. Development that and against that almost 3000 objectives and letters but from 2003 to now jdp and submitted to the county. Every letter is only to maximize their profit. They have shown no regard to the adverse to our neighborhood. Please deny the application. I appreciate you. >> Chair Diaz: thank you. Alma brida. >> my name is alma brida answered in king street village 32 years. The President Of the king street homeowners association is in opposition. Tucker will talk later I agree with everything he has said. I want to retain the 1973 covenant. King street village is not designed to be an urban area. As a self entrained trees lined animal traffic neighborhood village. The shopping plaza was designed to be and still is the village town square. For over 3200 residential units. Where children can play in a grassy courtyard. The green open space of the main reasons to live in king street. Instead of making repairs. For new neighborhood business. And long-term tenants were forced to leave it after losing the last battle in 2019. And several levels about the deteriorating conditions of the property they made no significant effort to attain or retract new business. The commercial and residential density plan in such a tiny place. Without access to even king street amenities. And the behavior make it clear. Jdp has no interest in king street for your smart plan. The plan is to overbuild, make a profit and so outfit leading unsupportable monolith that does not fit into or support the neighborhood. Please deny this application. In the hoa. >> Chair Diaz: thank you, ma'am. >> good morning I am mark fortian southwest 84th corvette I am in agreement with the speakers and hopefully those that follow. It one concern I have not heard. The traffic situation. It goes from kendall drive to 87th avenue. A new school. To the king street property.

We purchased king street resident and single-family residence. For the community offered. Watching the children play. For young families moving in. As the prior speaker spoke.

And we would like to keep it that way. >> Keon McGhee: thank you, sir. >> Chair Diaz: I think I have william cassidy here. >> he just spoke. >> that is what I have listed here. Luela graham. >> I live at 82nd corporate and President Of the king's creek I stand here as it did in 2019 and opposition of jdp. Have volunteer seven years with my husband and two young daughters. What attracted there was a community that came with it. Our family was willing to forgo some of the luxuries that come with owning a private residence for the safety and community that kings creek offered. In time when kids are attached to tablets and video games the greenbelt at kings creek allowed them a place to room with other children and adults alike. My neighbors treat my children as their own and I would not change that for the world. During covid-19 he are suffering from depression and anxiety our kids continue being kids and run freely outdoors. At various times during the day. Our closest friends are now our neighbors. and to change the zoning covenant will force long-term residents like myself out. The traffic that a project like the one being proposed by jdp equities with substantially impact our community. While we do not disagree that the current commercial property needs improvement. We strongly objected changing our community into an extension of downtown. I hope you consider our position and denied the application for thank you for your time. >> Chair Diaz: thank you, ma'am.

The covenants and restrictions were reported they knew what they were buying. And if they did not that is a due diligence between the us and the representatives. The year has been challenging. our neighborhood gives us a huge benefit in being able to walk around outside with open space. An open plan shopping center where people can walk around and essential services is a huge benefit. I run a national patient advocacy group for people with chronic lung infection.

I agree with those who spoke before me. We are s confirm about the traffic and safety on our children. Kings creek village is not an urban area. Although there are many people that enjoy living in urban areas they are most likely to seek homes into those areas. Those of us who purchased in kings creek purchased precisely because we enjoyed living in a nice quiet residential neighborhood. >> that is one minute. Thank you much. We thank you for your time. >> Chair Diaz: next person. >> commissioner diaz the only person left is kenneth merker.

And with that I have Mr. Tucker gives everybody want to hear what you will say, tucker. Because they all refer to you. >> I will give it my best shot. Good morning my name is tucker gives I represent the kings creek that on the property immediately to the south of the applicant's property. My client and many property owners and residential and adjacent urge you to deny this application. " on the side and d the zoning, as well as l as the covenant. We are here in a similar application regarding this from the same client in the spring of 2019. Applicant tried to redevelop the property as a mixed-use residential property with 51 residential units. Almost 19,000 square feet of floor area and 85,000 square feet of retail and office space. On a 3 1/4 which is now a fit that request for rezoning amended to this covenant is to allow a proposed mixed-use project. That was unanimously rejected by the county commission by a vote 8-4 and that they are back with a plan that allows even a bigger project. My clients are just as opposed to now as they were two years ago. That is why they have not met with the developer despite an invitation for the developer the county commission has said no to in a similar project and is before yu that has something much bigger. The lot is there to approve rezoning it has to be part of the conference of plan. And to release or distinguish the covenant the applicant must show in meets the requirement in the zoning code as well. So if he follows me the application is not consistent with the application on. New residential neighborhood. It is disrupted for the tranquility of the overall health of the neighborhood. This policy imposes on the county the tranquility and safety of the residents. They will allow more intense as development of the property that fails to protect this community, safety and tranquility. New residential units will be about up to 154 units according to the staff report for commercial development. Up to 279,455 four feet according to the staff report. It is a 45,000 square-foot neighborhood. Those existing the permitting closer to the neighbors adding to its mass. That the scale would be near residential townhouses. This is consistent with plan to use for a requirements, this is not. The applicant is not shown the reasonableness of the covenant required by the code for the release would result in the removal of the kings creek master-planned community. That is the existing covenant consistent with that plan. The existing development meets the conference the plan for horizontal mixed-use development. And showing 154 units with 100 square-foot commercial project, presidential commercial project for 2700. Excuse me 279,000 retail portion project. This four acre site that I master-planned. And reasonable. And a four story transit island along the spotlight. The mixed-use residential community and residential community is not reasonable or necessary or compatible. In this well-established self contained on. It therefore they field to meet zoning code because it removes from the negative impacts of development that would be incompatible with kings creek. This parcel plan is part of the center of kings creek community along with the adjourning recreation center but the covenant protect this mission and promise made by the developer and approved by the county commission. Because he is not here we would urge you to vote against this application to protect our community. I thank you very much for your attention to this matter. >> Chair Diaz: thank you Mr. Gibbs always good to see you. >> thank you. >> Chair Diaz: with that. >> german diaz, my name is melissa casana I am representing jdp equity the owner at 8100 southwest.. 81st drive. >> Chair Diaz: melissa how long do you need? >> 15 minutes. >> tried to make it shorter I have commissioners who need to leave. >> can you confirm you close the public hearing? >> thank you, dennis. The pblic meeting has been) At this time we heard from the public and everybody. And I think we surpassed because we had zoom and people coming up and with that try to make it shorter if you can. >> I do have a presentation. Joining me today are the principal josc daniel masa our expert plan outfit my colleagues josc gonzalez and cecilia torres carerro. Favorable to yourself we respectfully request your approval of a rezoning for bu-1 the release of the 1973 agreement and acceptance of her covenant. And the shopping center sits on 4+ acres of land that was master-planned to serve the everyday office and retail needs of the almost 1600 families that called the village of kings ceek cmpetent gentlemen was envisioned to be a sustainable self-contained neighborhood that consist of 1200 apartment units, 234 two story townhomes I would hundred 45 single-family homes. The property was developed in the 1970s but the structures are not updated and cannot do with any tenant in today's retail. The realization is not years. Two a lot more intensive uses were approved in the 70s and 80s. The property is surrounded by a sea of asphalt with no visual appeal. It is so unattractive on a beautiful spring weekend it is empty. Occupancy is down to 30 percent even at a 50 percent discount over neighborhood comparables. And even with hundreds of thousands of dollars that have gone into this property over the past couple of years in painting and landscaping renovations. The site is frozen in time. While the neighborhood blossoms. While it is the expressions. Residual of the most successful transit oriented development. Covid has upended many of especially the brick-and-mortar. It is only exacerbated te property and lack of patronage from its neighbors. The temper reinvestment is now. In the high presidential bid and those adopted by this commission in 2016. As a result the property shown here in red is in the miami-dade county transportation infrastructure improvement district. The commission approved the district to provide a trust fund. To use the financing from project like this one developed, construct and maintain smart plan corridor projects. In 2019 the commission amended to have vertical mixed-use. For to increase ridership along the smart plan corridor. Just last February the commission prevented the mixed-use corridor district. The zoning district we are proposing to rezone to incentivize private property owners. For the improvement district. The approved new groups including assisted-living and senior housing. To project. The property that ordinarily will survive transit. It is just one mile from mainland south metro rapid 1.4 miles from statement north rail station. Aswer directly by county bus route 87. The bus route 87 connect the property to palmetto expressway, metro rail station and make stop on westchester and to route five years of policy work has brought us here today. Today we all agree there is no policy. Implementing the smart plan. >> Chair Diaz: counselor. It up if you can we are about to lose quorum and that is not good for anybody. >> it is important to note the protest over half of the protest were submitted from addresses within four story buildings. Over 400 are duplicates. In November 13, 2018 Mr. Gibbs mentioned that you were before the community council he said did not come in here and as for variances is a this is the future. Your legislative job need to change the covid. Commissioners we have changed the code. We have community by and that the smart plan is a way to address the most pressing issues of our day. But that our whole team is available for questions but we respectfully. >> Chair Diaz: thank you Madam Counselor and your team. Enter the prior people who spoke. Commissioner kings creek if we could do this quickly? >> Raquel Regalado: we do not want to lose quorum thank you sally moving what she had. First and foremost I want to thank the residents were coming out. I will be brief. First and foremost. As someone was born and raised in miami during the 70s. Miami-dade ended in dade plan. We have change. We have a commitment to the rapid transit zone. This is within the scope of rapid transit and we will continue requesting density around the zones. Even the residents who spoke mentioned the commercial property needs improvements. The fact that -- tucker I have known you for years but but the fact you are proud you have not met with the developer is concerning to me. I need you need to meet. I think you need to consider options. The fact there has been a change with what was first proposed and today. I am sure is a direct result of cost and you need to have conversation with the developer. And we will continue to expand our rapid transit zone. At the tpo we approve bus rapid transit on 88. If you are concerned about what will happen in terms of zoning, more is coming. I really think the party needs to meet they need to have a conversation. With the residents of kings creek are doing. In its current state is unsustainable. If we can request that. I do not see how we are supposed to make a decision to meet with the developer. " the covenant. >> when this happens it is ur decision. >> Chair Diaz: if you do not meet with the developer to make a decision based on what is before you. >> Raquel Regalado: I will move the question. >> Madam You are not recognized. Commissioner kings regalado. >> I have motion to approve with staff recommendation. Anything else that needs to be added to it? With that. Anybody oppose? >> Mr. Chairman I am. >> one oppose commissioner martinez bit commissioner sosa? >> Rebecca Sosa: make sure they beautified the area. It is for district and unifying. >> Raquel Regalado: to the developer you will need to come to us we need a buffer. You need to give them green space. We need to see this this will come back a few times. We will have plenty of time. You are shaking your head? >> yes, commissioner similar to a rapid transit zone. This is a rezoning. And the next step would be administrative site plan approval. Which goes through an administrative process. They need to meet the code of the district. Which for staff recommendations those standards provide for enhanced aesthetics, landscaping, buffering. Additionally with the government restricted to the four stories. And they were supportive of the rezoning. >> we will add more landscaping, or buffering. And if you can work out green space for the neighborhood that would be appreciated. Since that is part of the complaint the neighbors. It it is in line with the rapid transit zone. I understand that is difficult for neighbors to understand but we have to be consistent with rpid transit zone priorities. What there was a motion there was a second sounded like there was a vote. >> Chair Diaz: there was. with that we have a problem. We are losing my quorum. We have to have quorum here. And cyber does not count for quorum. >> that is correct. >> Chair Diaz: I will readdress this today as to the quorum thing and come out with another memo after this meeting. Because at this point we are losing one applicant that will now have to be different to the next zoning meeting. But that is correct. >> are there people lined up to speed? >> I believe there are eight people lined up? >> unfortunately lost quorum. Before we took the vote, defer the item to the next zoning meeting. Okay. Anything else? Commissioner cohen higgins you are identified . >> Cohen Higgins: I want to thank you the President From district 8 who drove from southdale to downtown miami to have voices for today. Unfortunately we do have two refer the item to look forward to hearing from you at the next meeting. >> Chair Diaz: thank you. With that thank you for coming. The meeting has ended. [Music]
