the City Council and announced this presentation is about the School Interlocal Agreement and the
proposed amendments.
Ana Rijo-Conde,ECO Sustainability Officer,Miami-Dade County Public School, 1450 NE
2nd Avenue, Miami, Florida, appeared before the City Council and recounted approximately five
years ago, the State of Florida Legislature mandated an Interlocal agreement between the school
board the county and un-exempted municipalities. Miami Gardens was one of those un-exempted
municipalities. There are several proposed amendments to the Interlocal Agreement,which the City
Council can elect to adopt one or more of the amendments or none of the amendments. There are a
total of 26 schools in Miami Gardens; eighteen elementary schools; five middle schools and two
senior high schools.
Amendment to Section 21 of the Interlocal Agreement, is a required amendment,which does
Zoning Minutes

Page 2 of 11
ZONING MINUTES, SEPTEMBER 1, 2010
not require that it be passed, but that no action be taken on it. Currently,the Interlocal agreement
requires that the School Board, Miami-Dade County, and all non-exempt municipalities. "If an
amendment to this Agreement or the Bi-lateral Agreement with the County affects the uniform
district-wide public school concurrency system or otherwise requires the approval of the non-exempt
municipalities,it shall become effective only upon the approval of an amendment to this Agreement
by the County and School Board and approval by two-thirds of the non-exempt municipalities. An
amendment shall not be effective until the amendment is fully executed by the applicable parties and,
where applicable, all comprehensive plan amendments are effective." Unless all agree, to the
consensus Interlocal Agreement,this amendment, it will not become effective, and the unanimity
requirement will be retained.
Amendment No. 1. Amends Section 9.2(a) Capacity Methodology and Formula to
Determine Availability of Student Stations. (Assess effects of geographic areas within one year).
Amendment No. 2. Amends Section 9.2(b)Level of Service Standard(LOS)(Submit LOS
Annual Reports by 9/30 of each year).
Amendment No. 3. Amends Section 9.2(c)Concurrency Service Areas.(Amendments to
CSA are to be accomplished in accordance with Amendment provisions)
Amendment No. 4. Amends Section 9.2(d) Student Generation Multipliers. (Defines
process for developing Student Generation Multipliers;would remove requirement for adoption into
CDMP).
Amendment No. 5. Amends Section 9.2(f)Proportionate Share Mitigation.(Reiterates that
proportionate share mitigation must be approved by the School Board; Adds Charter Schools as
mitigation option No. 6 (option to be exercised at the sole discretion of the School Board; Adds
process for accepting mitigation in the form of money, in the event there is lack of agreement on
option to be used for mitigation,with conditions(e.g. full impact of proposed development would
have to be mitigated by the contribution).
Amendment No. 6. Amends Section 9.3 Updates to Public School Concurrency. (Adds
language to address action to be taken if there were to be a determination by the School Board to
close an existing school,or delete,modify,or delay a school facility project planned in the first three
years of the Work Plan, after its adoption in September).
Amendment No. 7. Amends Section 22 Taking and Vested Rights.(Adds new section that

the City of Miami Gardens),the Board and the County,voted on 10/29/09 to transmit the Optional

amendments' package was sent out on March 17,2010 with a request for response by 9/24/10. The
amendments are entirely optional and adoption of one,more than one,all,or none would not affect
the standing of the municipalities' currently Interlocal Agreement; the Staff Working Group also

Councilman Williams asked Ms. Rijo-Conde to expound on the Mitigation provision.
Ms. Rijo-Conde in response to Councilman Williams' inquiry explained for example if a
development comes in that will add 5,000 homes in the area of impact and that development does not
have all of the elements needed to meet the impact for that development. What would happen at that
particular point is that the School Board,the City of Miami Gardens and the Developer would have
to sit down, and look for ways to mitigate the impact that is not addressed by the current system.
Under the current Interlocal Agreement, a number of different variations could be brought forth.
Barbara Watson, 1240 NW 207`x' Street, Miami Gardens,Florida, appeared before the City
Council to express her concerns with the proposed amendments. She shared as a former Council
member she had expressed concerns with the re-districting provision, which would move all
affordable housing within the City of Miami Gardens. She further expressed concern with the
elimination of impact fees. She shared both of the local high schools in Miami Gardens are "F"
schools,which cannot afford to be impacted with additional children. She further expressed concern
with the Mitigation provision. She said those developers have the opportunity to not have to pay the
proportionate ratio that is needed to support the students they will be bringing in with their
development.
Ms. Rijo-Conde said the recommendation for exemption from impact fees for affordable
housing has not been approved by Miami-Dade County. The Impact Fee Ordinance adopted in 1995
is still in effect.
Mayor Gibson asked who would actually determine where those impact fees would go when
Mitigation is warranted. She said when this subject came up during a previous meeting, the
representative from the School Board at that time stated that the impact fees would go to the School
Board, and the City of Miami Gardens did not have any control over the fees.
Ms. Rijo-Conde in response to Mayor Gibson's inquiry said the law requires that those
mitigation dollars be applied to the mitigation. Therefore,those dollars from the mitigation impact
fees would be applied to the development(e.g. new school,addition to an existing school,etc.) in
the impacted area.
Ms. Watson asked for clarity as to "immediate area" and asked whether this included the
entire district. She shared at present the City of Miami Gardens is included in the same district as
Aventura.
Ms.Rijo-Conde in response to Ms.Watson's concern said state law governs how the impact
fee from the Mitigation can be used. The impact would have to be mitigated at the level of impact.
She further shared if a development comes in that does not have to mitigate,that developer would
still pay an impact fee. Everybody that pulls a permit with Miami-Dade County has to pay an impact
fee.
Councilman Gilbert asked whether the mitigation impact could be used at another school if
the boundary was changed. For example, if there are not enough seats at Miami Carol City, the
Zoning Minutes
September 1,2010
Page 4 of 11
ZONING MINUTES, SEPTEMBER 1, 2010
boundary could be changed so that those students could attend American High School.
Ms.Rijo-Conde in response to Councilman Gilbert's comment said as per the law,that is not
how it works. She explained American High is not contiguous with Miami Carol City. The schools
would have to be in the same zone.
Mayor Gibson further clarified that the City of Miami Gardens has two high schools(Miami
Carol City and Norland High School). Therefore, if there were no seats at Miami Carol City, the
only other school that would be in consideration would be Norland Senior High School. She further
said the impact could also affect the parent/student because that student would have to get to where a
seat is available, with or without bus transportation.
Mayor Gibson broached the subject of the "student generation multiplier", from her
understanding means the seats are being multiplied by all the schools within the district.
Ms. Rijo-Conde said the "student generation multiplier" takes the number of units in a
development, and multiply by the grade levels.
Councilwoman Pritchett asked Ms.Rij o-Conde if she had provided an overview of how these
proposed amendments would be beneficial to the City of Miami Gardens.
Ms. Rijo-Conde said Miami-Dade School Board is not advocating for the passage of the
amendments. A lot of the amendments in the bi-lateral agreement is already embedded in the
Interlocal Agreement. She opined there is really no need for the City to approve the amendments
because they are optional. She stated that she was trying to explain the differences and to reiterate a
lot of what the City already has,in slightly different ways. One difference is the bi-lateral agreement
contains a provision that would allow Public Charter Schools to be offered as mitigation,is the sole
option of the School Board. However, that is not one of the concerns in the mitigation option.
Ms. Watson made reference to the district and shared that most of the area is landlocked
except for a few parcels in the Miami Gardens' area. The vast majority of development is prohibited
in the eastern part of this sector, which is Aventura. Which means this will drive all of the
development to the City of Miami Gardens. She asked what would be the benefit for the City of
Miami Gardens to adopt this. She also asked what would be the disadvantage if the City did not
adopt it.
Ms. Rijo-Conde in response to Ms. Watson's comments said the City of Miami Gardens
already has a contingency in place. This is not proposing to do anything new. The only thing that is
before the Council is whether or not the Council wants to exercise its discretion.

ZONING MINUTES, SEPTEMBER 1, 2010
8-A) AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
MIAMI GARDENS, FLORIDA, APPROVING THE APPLICATION
SUBMITTED BY MISHKAN T'HILLAH WORSHIP CENTER FOR
THE REZONING OF THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 2820 N.W.
167TH N.W. TERRACE, MORE PARTICULARLY DESCRIBED ON
EXHIBIT"A,"ATTACHED HERETO,FROM R-1,SINGLE FAMILY
RESIDENTIAL TO NC, NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL;
PROVIDING FOR THE ADOPTION OF REPRESENTATIONS;
REPEALING ALL ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT; PROVIDING A
SEVERABILITY CLAUSE; PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE
DATE. (SPONSORED BY THE CITY MANAGER)
Mayor Gibson asked that even though there are two separate items,the presentation will be
combined as one presentation.
Mr. Saiphoo, Zoning Administrator said the request is to rezone two parcels of land. The
parcels are separated by NW 167th Terrace. The request is the change the zoning from residential to
neighborhood commercial,which if granted will allow numerous commercial uses. After a review
of the area, staff thought the neighborhood commercial use would not be compatible with the
surrounding single family residential neighborhood.
Dion L. Valencia, 6727 NW 151 Street, Miami Lakes, Florida, appeared before the City
Council as the architect and representative of this applicant. He recounted that he was retained over
two year ago to design a church for the applicant. The applicant has owned this particular site since
the mid 1990's. The applicant knew the City was going through some changes and would be
adopting new land development regulations, which would require the property to be rezoned.
Furthermore, the City's moratorium on assembly uses also kept this application from moving
forward. The majority of the programming has been placed on the north site. The "Program" is
focused on many different uses, as well as making use of the existing day care center on the south
side of the property. The lower impact program is on the north side of the property. A traffic study
was performed and yield minimum impact. Furthermore, community outreach was done with the
church members going door to door to meet with residents. A presentation similar to what is in the
agenda packet was provided to the residents as well. The residents also signed indicating whether
they approved or disapproved of this application. He asked that the Council approve the zoning of
the north property,just as staff has made a recommendation for the south property.
Mayor Gibson opened the floor for this public hearing.
Etta B. Harbin, 3316 Annex Road, Miramar, Florida, appeared before the City Council to
expound on this application,as well as seeking the Council's approval. She said what is not visible
on the plan is the overpass across the Palmetto Expressway. This over path is utilized everyday by
youth, who have no hope, and no future. Those youth were included as part of this design. The
applicant is paying the cost to have a library on site and opened to the public,and conducive to an
environment where non-readers,adults or youth can come in and feel comfortable in being taught by
expert teachers. She shared that Mishkan T'Hillah Worship Center is a biblical church and not a
Zoning Minutes

ZONING MINUTES, SEPTEMBER 1, 2010
traditional church. She stated the"Church"is committed to the community and wants to give back
to the community. There is a need to meet the needs of the youth and families in the community;to
give them hope.
There being no other interested parties to speak on this item the public hearing closed.
Motion offered by Councilman Gilbert,seconded by Vice Mayor Campbell to adopt this item
on first reading.
Councilman Gilbert asked how many entrances are on the site.
Mr.Valencia said there is one entrance on the south side. There is an entrance on the other
side and a one-way exit out. There is also a service entrance near the fellowship hall. The entire
load of traffic is coming from NW 167th Terrace.
Councilman Gilbert said the traffic would flow better if people could exit off of NW 27th
Avenue and 167th Street and go right onto the property.
Vice Mayor Campbell said his concern is with the north side,which is Item 813. He shared
that one of his concerns was answered, which had to do with whether the residents near the north
side had been contacted. He expressed concern that if this item is approved and something happened
and the church was never built, this property would then be subject to commercial use. He asked
whether a covenant can be adopted,if this item is approved to say that the property can only be used
for institutional use
Attorney Dickens said unfortunately the City cannot do that. The courts in Florida have
clearly stated that no conditional re-zoning or contract re-zoning can be done. This would be
considered conditional re-zoning.
Councilman Williams conveyed his support of both applications. He explained that he is a
real estate attorney therefore he understands all the land use and zoning implications of this property.
He shared that he grew up in Miami Gardens and went to Mt. Hermon, which is located in a
residential area. He said in fact there are many churches located in residential areas. He said he has
seen those churches contributing to the overall benefit of the entire community. He further shared
that Mt. Hermon has since relocated to another area in the City, which is also in a residential
community. That church is always filled to capacity, and there are no complaints from the
surrounding residents.
Motion offered by Councilman Williams, seconded by Vice Mayor Campbell to defer item
8A until discussion is held on Item 813. The motion to defer passed and carried by a 7-0 voice vote.
Mayor Gibson stated for the record that she was serving on the Community Council when the
Mt.Hermon item came before that"Council". The proposed sanctuary was too big for the site. Mt.
Hermon had to go back and redesign making it smaller because they did not have the space on the
site. She commented sometimes adjustments have to be made when you want something built.

Mayor Gibson referenced the entrance for the trash pickup on the back and asked whether
this could be moved because the trash is not going to be picked up when service is being conducted.
She expounded that on NW 168th Street an entrance came be made to come in from 27th Avenue.
She said an easier access into the site would be from NW 32nd Avenue onto 168th Street.
Mr.Valencia said people attending the church would have two choices if traveling from the
west or east(NW 167th Street,NW 167th Terrace and NW 168th Street).
Mayor Gibson clarified that she was referencing NW 168th Street because it abuts homes on
the backside.
Attorney Dickens suggested that the Council makes its recommendations to staff. This item
will have to go through the site plan approval, as well as fire and police approval.
Mayor Gibson said her recommendation would be that the applicant agree to look at moving
or closing the entrance on the back contingent on the fact that they have an alternate side.

ZONING MINUTES, SEPTEMBER 1, 2010
Mayor Gibson informed the applicant that this would be the time to make a presentation
however the two new Council members have been briefed on this matter, and had their questions
answered by the City Attorney. Therefore it was not necessary for the applicant to make a full
presentation.
Mayor Gibson opened the floor for this public hearing. After were no interested parties to
speak on this item,the public hearing was closed.
Motion offered by Vice Mayor Campbell,seconded by Councilwoman Pritchett to adopt this
item.
Councilwoman Pritchett commended Florida Memorial University for its vision for the future
and our children. She said the architect aesthetically thought about the City when designing this
project.
Councilman Williams said from what he can see a major portion of this project is the
building of dormitories. He asked if subcontractors would be used to do the actual work.
Ken Talbert,a representative from Dwight Stephens'Construction company appeared before
the Council in response to Councilman Williams' inquiry. He said subcontractors would be utilized
in this project(electrical,plumbing, structure,carpenters, landscapers,carpet layers,etc.). He said
there will be quite a few jobs available. There will be approximately 150 men on site working in the
beginning however, once the project is in full swing there could be approximately 300 people
working on the project at the same time. A committed was made to Florida Memorial University to
use 100%minority participation.
Councilman Williams asked what percentage of the 300 workers would not require a certain
skill.
Mr. Talbert said the unskilled laborer would be approximately ten(10)percent.
Councilman Williams shared a job fair was held last month for unskilled workers,with over
250 individuals responding. He said he cannot demand anything but asked if it would be possible for
Dwight Stephens Construction to host a job fair to hire unskilled laborers for this project.
Mr. Talbert in response to Councilman Williams' inquiry said this can be done.
Councilman Williams asked who would Dwight Stephens Construction Company follow up
with to make this happen.
Manager Crew said the Deputy City Manager would be the individual to contact.
Councilman Williams ask that staff provide an update on this matter.
At the conclusion of this discussion,the motion to adopt passed and carried by a 6-0 vote.
