RECOMMENDATION
The Administration recommends that the Mayor and City Commission approve, on a five-sevenths (5/7ths) vote, the proposed entertainment use requested by Cubiche 105, LLC.
BACKGROUND/HISTORY
On December 29, 2015, the Miami Beach Redevelopment Agency (the “RDA” or “Landlord”) entered into a Lease Agreement with Cubiche 105, LLC (the “Tenant,” d/b/a “Yuca 105”) for approximately 7,130 square feet of ground-floor space at 1555 Washington Avenue (the “Property”), to develop and operate a restaurant. Following the lease execution, the RDA approved Amendments No. 1 and No. 2 for the abatement of past due rents and modifying payments to a percentage of sales versus fixed rents to address the impact of COVID-19 and the decline in foot traffic along Washington Avenue during which time the Tenant remained responsible for operating expenses.
The Tenant submitted a written request (Exhibit A), Restaurant Layout (Exhibit B) and an Operations Plan (Exhibit C) for the City to approve ancillary entertainment within the existing indoor restaurant premises, consisting of background/ambient amplified music and occasional live performances at an ambient volume level.
ANALYSIS
The Property is located within the Government Use (GU) zoning district. Pursuant to Sections 7.2.16.2.a.2, 7.2.16.3.h., and 7.5.5.4.a.5 of the Land Development Regulations, the proposed entertainment use requires City Commission approval following a duly noticed public hearing. At least 15 days prior to the hearing, notice of the public hearing was published in a newspaper of general circulation, posted on the Property, and mailed to owners of land lying within 375 feet of the Property.
The Tenant has agreed to implement operational safeguards to mitigate any impacts of the proposed entertainment use, as follows:
1. The entertainment use shall be limited to the indoor areas of the Property at all times.
2. The Tenant shall take all necessary steps to ensure that all sound produced by or associated with the entertainment use remains fully confined to the interior areas of the Property and is not audible from the exterior of the Property, including, but not limited to, using volume controls and sound management to minimize sound spillover, and ensuring all windows and doors remain closed at all times when the entertainment is utilized.
3. The Tenant will operate the establishment, during all hours of operation, exclusively as a restaurant preparing and serving food with a full kitchen, and at no time will the Tenant operate the establishment as a stand-alone bar.
4. The Tenant will maintain appropriate staffing and security for orderly ingress and egress, host-managed entry along Washington Avenue, and maintenance of adjacent areas.
