Modification of the overall height of the building from 312 feet to 322 feet in height. Reasons cited for the 10-feet addition to the height are: a. Adding 20 parking spaces to the building. b.

Planning and Zoning Advisory Board Meeting November 14, 2024 Page 3 AN ORDINANCE OF THE MAYOR AND COMMISSION OF NORTH BAY VILLAGE, FLORIDA, AMENDING SECTION 9.22, "SYNTHETIC TURF," OF THE UNIFIED LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE ("ULDC"), TO MODIFY THE STANDARDS FOR DESIGN, PERMITTING AND INSTALLATION OF SYNTHETIC TURF; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR CODIFICATION; PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS; PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE. Village Clerk Alba Chang read the Ordinance title on the official record. Village Planner Silvia Vargas explained the Village Code prohibiting synthetic turf in certain areas. The ordinance requests that the surface areas where this installation would be allowed be increased. Specific language was drafted to clarify standards, conditions, maintenance, exemptions, design, and other details regarding handling/requirements of synthetic turf that were vague or absent in the current version of the Code. The Board stated that synthetic turf should not be allowed in swale areas and that front yards should be allowed only for concrete walkway/driveway slabs with minimal ground borders. ACTION: Board Member Murphy made a motion to approve the proposed ordinance with recommendations to prohibit the turf in swale areas/front yards except for concrete/driveway slabs with minimal ground borders. Board Member Thomas seconded the motion. Upon roll call vote, the motion passed 5-0 with Board Member Murphy, Board Member Thomas, Board Member Andras, Vice Chair Abramson, and Chair Shaw voting for. 5B. An Ordinance Amending Section 5.22, "Burden of Showing Compliance" of the Unified Land Development Code, Regarding Concurrency Compliance for Parks and Open Space - Interim Village Manager Frank Rollason (Village Planner Silvia E. Vargas, FAICP). AN ORDINANCE OF THE MAYOR AND COMMISSION OF NORTH BAY VILLAGE, FLORIDA, AMENDING SECTION 5.22, "BURDEN OF SHOWING COMPLIANCE," OF THE UNIFIED LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE ("ULDC"), TO CLARIFY THE VILLAGE'S CONCURRENCY COMPLIANCE REQUIREMENT FOR PARKS AND OPEN SPACE; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR CODIFICATION; PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS; PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE. Village Clerk Alba Chang read the Ordinance title on the official record. Village Planner Vargas introduced the proposed ordinance and further explained that the Village needs approximately 11.8 acres of parks and recreation facilities to meet the adopted level of service [LOS]. Existing public facilities, including the three Village parks, future projects, and existing portions of the Island Walk, are estimated to provide roughly six acres. Civic, recreation, and open space facilities included in approved and anticipated projects are anticipated to raise the LOS to approximately 0.95 acres per 1000 population. Continuing a strategy of opening inaccessible Island Walk segments or creating new segments along existing development that do not currently provide Island Walk will further improve the LOS.

Planning and Zoning Advisory Board Meeting November 14, 2024 Page 4 Village Planner Vargas explained the proposed amendment was a “clean-up” language for the Code. The concurrency requirement was drafted to ensure consistency and comprehensiveness. The “level-of- service” standard is not being met, and the Village must take active measures to ensure it complies with the State Ordinance/Law. The amendment also clarifies the timing to demonstrate compliance, recognizing that the Village will achieve compliance incrementally. These clarifications will facilitate the implementation of the compliance requirement and guide staff and developers in determining the need for parks and recreational facilities in future or retrofitted projects. Chair Shaw recommended approving the motion as is and incrementally working towards the required LOS minimum. ACTION: Board Member Murphy made a motion to approve the proposed ordinance. Board Member Thomas seconded the motion. Upon roll call vote, the motion passed 5-0 with Board Member Murphy, Board Member Thomas, Board Member Andras, Vice Chair Abramson, and Chair Shaw voting for. 6. Discussion Items: None 7. Public Comments: None 8. Adjournment ACTION: There being no further business to discuss, the meeting adjourned at 7:18 p.m. Accepted this 15th day of January 2025. ______________________________________ Ryan Shaw Chair, At Large Respectfully Submitted, ______________________________________ Alba L.

Applications: None 6. Ordinances: 6A. An Ordinance Amending Section 8.12, "Bonus Height" of the Unified Land Development Code - Interim Village Manager Frank Rollason (Village Planner Silvia E. Vargas, FAICP). AN ORDINANCE OF THE MAYOR AND COMMISSION OF NORTH BAY VILLAGE, FLORIDA, AMENDING SECTION 8.12 “BONUS HEIGHT” OF THE UNIFIED LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE TO PROVIDE FOR THE APPROVAL OF ADDITIONAL BONUS HEIGHT IN CONNECTION WITH PUBLIC WATERFRONT ACCESS AND OPEN SPACE FOR ENHANCED ACCESS TO THE ISLAND WALK AND IMPROVEMENTS TO EXISTING PUBLIC PARKS; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR CODIFICATION; PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS; PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE. Village Clerk Alba Chang read the proposed ordinance title into the record. Village Planner Silvia Vargas explained this proposal would allow the Commission to consider approving an additional 188 feet above and above the maximum attainable height of 312 feet. The presented amendment intends to consider additional height in connection with the provision of public waterfront access and open space to enhance public parks. The proposed amendment comes with the following conditions potentially eligible properties must meet to be granted the bonus height: 1. There are only 3.5 acres of net lot area. 2. The property must receive development rights transfers [TDRs] that maximize the bonus height. 3. The property must reach a development agreement approved by the Village Commission. A potentially eligible property must include the following criteria in the development agreement: 1. A 7,000 sq/ft requirement is a minimum. 2. The Village has a concurrency requirement for Parks and Recreation, and a concurrency plan should also be included in the Code for these projects. 9

Planning and Zoning Board Meeting October 15, 2024 Page 3 She urged the Village to be more proactive in incrementally achieving concurrency. All spaces should have a usable design. An analysis has been completed following the NBV 100 plan to be more consistent with the pillars relevant to this amendment. They are consistent with RM70. This amendment would allow specific properties with net land to reduce the bulk of the tower for additional access to the waterfront and open space. This amendment is being sponsored by Commissioner Daro and co-sponsored by Vice Mayor Chervony. Board Member Murphy asked if the property rises 50 stories/500 feet, what would be the maximum density granted? Village Planner Vargas said the density remains the same as the comprehensive plan of 70 units/acre. She said the density allocations cannot be changed without amending the comprehensive plan. The Village Attorney noted the building is not required to be that tall, and this amendment applies to any future development. Village Planner Vargas listed the following description of eligibility conditions: 1. At least 3.5 acres of net lot area. 2. Must receive TDR 3. Maximize the bonus height available. 4. A project subject to a Development Agreement approved by the Village Commission a. The Development Agreement for an eligible project must provide for each of the following items: i. Dedication of public / open space and waterfront access of at least 7,000 sq/ft. ii. Development and improvements of open spaces. iii. Maintenance of open space iv. The Village must be named as an additional insured with coverages found suitable by the Village Manager. v. A Public Parks Enhancement contribution of $115 per square foot. Board Member Murphy asked how much open space can there be for the subject property? What are the setbacks going up? He expressed concern about how the density would be managed on the site, and there are not enough units for such tall structures. Village Planner Vargas said those interested in obtaining the bonus height are responsible for learning what they must gather/provide to meet the Code requirements. She supports reducing the height of buildings instead of units. TDR cannot be modified during this meeting; the board can submit a recommendation to the Commission to lower the bonus height of buildings. The Code states the following: • 25 feet for the front • 25 rear/waterfront • 15 feet for one interior side. 10

Planning and Zoning Board Meeting October 15, 2024 Page 4 • The other interior side should be at least 20 percent of the total lot to allow for an island walk. • 20 percent of the lot must be open space. • 30 percent of the lot must be green space. PUBLIC COMMENTS: Laura Tauber, Developer - 1801 NE 123 Street, North Miami, FL. 33181 Miguel Diaz De La Portilla Attorney ACTION: Vice Chair Abramson made a motion to approve the proposed Ordinance. Board Member Murphy seconded the motion. Upon poll call vote, the motion passed 4-0, Chair Shaw, Vice Chair Abramson, Board Member Thompson, and Board Member Murphy voted in favor. 6B. An Ordinance Creating a New Section 5.23.1, Providing for Waivers of Plat - Interim Village Manager Frank Rollason (Village Planner Silvia E. Vargas, FAICP). AN ORDINANCE OF THE MAYOR AND COMMISSION OF NORTH BAY VILLAGE, FLORIDA, AMENDING DIVISION 3 “SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS” OF CHAPTER 5 OF THE UNIFIED LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE BY CREATING A NEW SECTION 5.23.1 PROVIDING FOR WAIVERS OF PLAT BASED ON EXCEPTIONS TO THE PLATTING REQUIREMENT PROVIDED IN CHAPTER 28 OF THE MIAMI-DADE COUNTY CODE OF ORDINANCES; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR CODIFICATION; PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS; PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE. Village Clerk Alba Chang read the proposed ordinance title into the record. Village Planner Vargas said this proposal is designed to provide a clear and explicit process consistent with Miami-Dade County’s criteria for determining when planning requirements can be waived. This language is not in the Village Code, creating a new section under Chapter 5. The Village Manager can decide if a property can be exempt from planning requirements. A waiver process and criteria are missing from the Code language. Vice Chair Abramson asked why certain exemptions were needed, to which the Village Attorney explained that it is a long, tedious, expensive process involving the County, among other entities. This arduous process is sometimes unnecessary when there is an already-developed site. There is developed land in the Village with incomplete plat details; therefore, going back to fulfill the planning requirements is daunting. This language at least allows for considering a waiver where none existed before. Miami Dade and many municipalities include this language. ACTION: Vice Chair Abramson made a motion to approve the proposed Ordinance. Board Member Murphy seconded the motion. Upon poll call vote, the motion passed 3-0, Chair Shaw, Vice Chair Abramson, and Board Member Paul Murphy voted in favor. 11

Applications: None 6. Ordinances: 6A. An Ordinance Amending Section 8.12, "Bonus Height" of the Unified Land Development Code - Interim Village Manager Frank Rollason (Village Planner Silvia E. Vargas, FAICP). AN ORDINANCE OF THE MAYOR AND COMMISSION OF NORTH BAY VILLAGE, FLORIDA, AMENDING SECTION 8.12 “BONUS HEIGHT” OF THE UNIFIED LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE TO PROVIDE FOR THE APPROVAL OF ADDITIONAL BONUS HEIGHT IN CONNECTION WITH PUBLIC WATERFRONT ACCESS AND OPEN SPACE FOR ENHANCED ACCESS TO THE ISLAND WALK AND IMPROVEMENTS TO EXISTING PUBLIC PARKS; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR CODIFICATION; PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS; PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE. Village Clerk Alba Chang read the proposed ordinance title into the record. Village Planner Silvia Vargas explained this proposal would allow the Commission to consider approving an additional 188 feet above and above the maximum attainable height of 312 feet. The presented amendment intends to consider additional height in connection with the provision of public waterfront access and open space to enhance public parks. The proposed amendment comes with the following conditions potentially eligible properties must meet to be granted the bonus height: 1. There are only 3.5 acres of net lot area. 2. The property must receive development rights transfers [TDRs] that maximize the bonus height. 3. The property must reach a development agreement approved by the Village Commission. A potentially eligible property must include the following criteria in the development agreement: 1. A 7,000 sq/ft requirement is a minimum. 2. The Village has a concurrency requirement for Parks and Recreation, and a concurrency plan should also be included in the Code for these projects. 9

Planning and Zoning Board Meeting October 15, 2024 Page 3 She urged the Village to be more proactive in incrementally achieving concurrency. All spaces should have a usable design. An analysis has been completed following the NBV 100 plan to be more consistent with the pillars relevant to this amendment. They are consistent with RM70. This amendment would allow specific properties with net land to reduce the bulk of the tower for additional access to the waterfront and open space. This amendment is being sponsored by Commissioner Daro and co-sponsored by Vice Mayor Chervony. Board Member Murphy asked if the property rises 50 stories/500 feet, what would be the maximum density granted? Village Planner Vargas said the density remains the same as the comprehensive plan of 70 units/acre. She said the density allocations cannot be changed without amending the comprehensive plan. The Village Attorney noted the building is not required to be that tall, and this amendment applies to any future development. Village Planner Vargas listed the following description of eligibility conditions: 1. At least 3.5 acres of net lot area. 2. Must receive TDR 3. Maximize the bonus height available. 4. A project subject to a Development Agreement approved by the Village Commission a. The Development Agreement for an eligible project must provide for each of the following items: i. Dedication of public / open space and waterfront access of at least 7,000 sq/ft. ii. Development and improvements of open spaces. iii. Maintenance of open space iv. The Village must be named as an additional insured with coverages found suitable by the Village Manager. v. A Public Parks Enhancement contribution of $115 per square foot. Board Member Murphy asked how much open space can there be for the subject property? What are the setbacks going up? He expressed concern about how the density would be managed on the site, and there are not enough units for such tall structures. Village Planner Vargas said those interested in obtaining the bonus height are responsible for learning what they must gather/provide to meet the Code requirements. She supports reducing the height of buildings instead of units. TDR cannot be modified during this meeting; the board can submit a recommendation to the Commission to lower the bonus height of buildings. The Code states the following: • 25 feet for the front • 25 rear/waterfront • 15 feet for one interior side. 10

Planning and Zoning Board Meeting October 15, 2024 Page 4 • The other interior side should be at least 20 percent of the total lot to allow for an island walk. • 20 percent of the lot must be open space. • 30 percent of the lot must be green space. PUBLIC COMMENTS: Laura Tauber, Developer - 1801 NE 123 Street, North Miami, FL. 33181 Miguel Diaz De La Portilla Attorney ACTION: Vice Chair Abramson made a motion to approve the proposed Ordinance. Board Member Murphy seconded the motion. Upon poll call vote, the motion passed 4-0, Chair Shaw, Vice Chair Abramson, Board Member Thompson, and Board Member Murphy voted in favor. 6B. An Ordinance Creating a New Section 5.23.1, Providing for Waivers of Plat - Interim Village Manager Frank Rollason (Village Planner Silvia E. Vargas, FAICP). AN ORDINANCE OF THE MAYOR AND COMMISSION OF NORTH BAY VILLAGE, FLORIDA, AMENDING DIVISION 3 “SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS” OF CHAPTER 5 OF THE UNIFIED LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE BY CREATING A NEW SECTION 5.23.1 PROVIDING FOR WAIVERS OF PLAT BASED ON EXCEPTIONS TO THE PLATTING REQUIREMENT PROVIDED IN CHAPTER 28 OF THE MIAMI-DADE COUNTY CODE OF ORDINANCES; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR CODIFICATION; PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS; PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE. Village Clerk Alba Chang read the proposed ordinance title into the record. Village Planner Vargas said this proposal is designed to provide a clear and explicit process consistent with Miami-Dade County’s criteria for determining when planning requirements can be waived. This language is not in the Village Code, creating a new section under Chapter 5. The Village Manager can decide if a property can be exempt from planning requirements. A waiver process and criteria are missing from the Code language. Vice Chair Abramson asked why certain exemptions were needed, to which the Village Attorney explained that it is a long, tedious, expensive process involving the County, among other entities. This arduous process is sometimes unnecessary when there is an already-developed site. There is developed land in the Village with incomplete plat details; therefore, going back to fulfill the planning requirements is daunting. This language at least allows for considering a waiver where none existed before. Miami Dade and many municipalities include this language. ACTION: Vice Chair Abramson made a motion to approve the proposed Ordinance. Board Member Murphy seconded the motion. Upon poll call vote, the motion passed 3-0, Chair Shaw, Vice Chair Abramson, and Board Member Paul Murphy voted in favor. 11
