OLD BUSINESS

There was no Old Business to come before the Board.

NEW BUSINESS
Consider Resolution No. 2021-05 – Adopting a Fiscal Year 2020/2021 Amended Budget

Resolution No. 2021-05 was presented, entitled:

RESOLUTION NO. 2021-05

A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF THE CENTURY GARDENS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT AUTHORIZING AND ADOPTING AN AMENDED FINAL FISCAL YEAR 2020/2021 BUDGET (“AMENDED BUDGET”), PURSUANT TO CHAPTER 189, FLORIDA STATUTES; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.

Mr. Silva provided the Board with a brief overview of the resolution and stated that there was a positive Operating Fund Balance at the end of the Fiscal Year 2020/2021. A discussion ensued after which:

A MOTION was made by Mr. Ruiz, seconded by Mr. Fernandez and unanimously passed to approve and adopt Resolution No. 2021-05, as presented; thereby approving the Amended 2020/2021 Fiscal Year Budget.

Discussion Regarding Zoning Changes to Land Located on 87th Avenue (PB)

Ms. Batic advised that Genet Family Limited Partnership No. 1, Genet Family Limited Partnership No. 2, and Farm Development 2014, LLC, applied for (1) DISTRICT BOUNDARY CHANGE from AU to BU-2, (2) UNUSUAL USE to permit a lake excavation, (3) NON-USE VARIANCE requiring a continuous 5’ masonry wall along the business lot and (4) NON-USE VARIANCE requiring a continuous 5’ masonry wall located 10’ in from rear of businesses. That application was considered by Resolution No. CZAB5-3-15 (the “Resolution”) and approved subject to certain conditions, one of which was that operating hours shall be restricted to 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., except for the exercise/health club, which shall be restricted to operate from 5:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. (condition # 8), passed and adopted by the Community Zoning Appeals Board on March 12, 2015. Atlas 87th Avenue, LLC, applied to modify a condition of the previously approved Resolution, specifically condition #8 of the Resolution (the “Condition”), to add an exception that would allow for a drugstore and an automobile gas station with a convenience store to operate 24 hours each day. A discussion ensued after which the Board was in agreement that the presented modification to the Condition could result in significant adverse impacts to the nearby residential properties, including, but not limited to noise, graffiti, litter, and loitering. Another discussion ensued after which:

A MOTION was made by Ms. Batic, seconded by Mr. Ruiz and unanimously passed authorizing District Counsel to compose a resolution on behalf of the District stating that the Board was in opposition to modification of the Condition since there is no need for an additional 24-hour drugstore or automobile gas station with a convenience store, as there are similar establishments in the immediate surrounding area, including two gas stations open 24 hours a day within less than a quarter mile of the subject parcel; and thereby appointing Mr. Ruiz as the District representative to speak on behalf of the Board in the advertised Miami-Dade County Zoning Change Hearing .

Discussion Regarding Increased Flooding in the District (PB)

Ms. Batic advised that there were multiple locations throughout the District that tended to flood after rain events. Mr. Silva advised that the specific locations flooding should be sent to him via email so that he may request that Miami-Dade County clean those catch basins.
