IN RE: A presentation by the City of Miami Beach Planning Department to the Historic Preservation Board of an Historic Designation Report relative to the proposed designation of the Tatum Waterway Expansion of the North Shore Local Historic District. The proposed expansion area is generally bounded by 77th Street on the south, Hawthorne Avenue and Crespi Boulevard on the west, 87th Street on the north and Tatum Waterway Drive and Byron Avenue on the east. Following the public hearing, the Historic Preservation Board will vote on whether to extend the interim procedures imposed under Section 118-591(e) of the City Code and will vote on whether to recommend designation of the proposed historic district pursuant to Sections 118-591 through 118-593 of Subpart B in the Land Development Regulations of the City Code. To avoid irreparable harm this application is being re-noticed in an abundance of caution while the City seeks review of the recent circuit court appellate division decision in YTech-180 Units Miami Beach Investment, LLC v. City of Miami Beach (Fla. 11th Cir. Case No. 2018-184-AP-01). Without waiving any right to further challenge the circuit court’s decision, without waiving any argument, defense, or claim, and to protect the historic resources at issue, the City provides this notice in accordance with the circuit court’s construction of Section 118-591(f) and Section 118-8 of the City Code of Miami Beach. If the Historic Preservation Board votes in favor of recommending historic district designation, then the proposed designation will be considered by the Planning Board and the City Commission at separate public hearings held on future dates that will be separately noticed. [Continued from the October 13, 2020 meeting]
