V. PROPOSED VILLAGE CIVIC CENTER MASTER PLANS
A. Components of the Village Civic Center
The following is a breakdown of the elements that comprise the Village Civic Center as
defined in the Civic Design Charrette and in post Charrette work sessions:
• Community Center: This facility is envisioned to be a 20,000 square foot multi-
functional building containing an indoor gymnasium with basketball courts,
racquet ball or squash courts, meeting and class rooms, a weight room, restrooms
with lockers, a reception area and administrative offices.
• Fire Station: This stand alone 15,710 square foot facility is being designed as a
four bay drive through apparatus room, with living and support facilities for 12
on -duty fire personnel.
• Police Station and Emergency Services Facility: This facility is comprised of
approximately 15,000 square feet and will house the entire police department.
Fire administrative offices (2000 square feet) shall be located in this structure.
• Village Administrative Offices: This facility is envisioned to be approximately
10,000 square feet and will house the Village Manager's Office, Village Clerk's
Office, the Finance and Administrative Offices, the Building, Zoning and
Planning Department, and Public Works.
• Village Hall: The facility will be used as Council Chambers, a Community
Theater, and a public meeting room. This facility should be designed to hold at

B. Site Plans
1. Charrette Site Plan - Presented January 1998
• Positives:
1. "Village Hall", serving as Council Chambers, Community
Theater, and the main public space of the Village Center is
created. Its location terminates W. Mc Intyre Street from both the
commercial and residential sides of the island and converts W.
McIntyre Street from the main "escape route" to the main civic
street of the community.
2. A Municipal parking structure housing over 220 cars with a
15,000 square foot liner building will occupy the southeast
Rebozo property. The programming of this facility is intended to
house a'iministrative offices, retail and relocating civic functions
such as the post office.
C
• Negatives:
1. The initial design of the police department's split level "gateway"
building is unfeasible for the purpose of a police, operations
facility.
2. The current fir' a and police trailer would have to be torn down,
disrupting emergency service and resulting in temporary
relocation costs. The cost associated with temporarily relocating
the police and fire departments has been identified upwards of
$500,000.
2. The integration of municipal and federal functions resulting from
a public/ private joint venture could be difficult from a logistical
point of view.

2. Site Plan in Response to Resolution 98-21
This plan is a modification of the plan presented in September 1998. In this plan
the location of the fire and polled buildings have been switched, due to relocation
cost associated with temporarily housing fire personnel and fire apparatus.
• Positives:
1. In this plan the Fire Station facility is sited in the southeast corner of
W. McIntyre Street and Fernwood Road. This location will allow for
construction to proceed without interruption of Fire Rescue services.
The existing apparatus and dormitory building will remain intact
during construction, thus avoiding relocation costs.
2. "Village Hall" serving as Council Chambers, Community Theater, and
the main public space of the Village Center is created. Its location
terminates W. Mc Intyre Street from both the commercial and
residential sides of the island and converts W. McIntyre Street from the
main "escape route" to the main civic street of the community.
3. This plan offers more variety and expansion for the Community Center
than was originally planned during the Charrette. The revised plan will
allow more space for outdoor recreational facilities abutting the
Community Center.
4. A Municipal parking structure housing over 220 cars with a 15,000
square foot liner building will occupy the southeast Rebozo property.
The programming of this facility is intended to house administrative
offices, retail and relocating civic functions such as the post office. • . . '
r
• Negatives:
1. The integration of municipal and federal functions resulting from a
public/ private joint venture could be difficult from a logistical point
of view.
2. The trailer housing fire and police administration would have to be
relocated during construction. The location of the police building
would require removal of the existing apparatus room. (Estimated
value $350,000).
3. The Police Station property is currently owned by Miami Dade
County, and leased (30 year lease) by the Village. .
4. Police Station construction can not begin until Fire Station is
completed.
5. Total inconvenience and hindrance to operation of Police
Department.

3. Alternate Site Plan "A"
• Positives:
1. Village departments have been combined for a sort of "one -stop
shopping" for Village residents. The fire and police
administrative offices, Village administrative offices and a
smaller Council Chambers are integrated in a facility located on
the Southeast corner of the Rebozo property.
2. The Village Hall/Community Theatre has been moved to the same
site as the Community Center. This will facilitate the inter-
relationship between the two facilities. •
3. This plan allows future parking structure expansion. as well as
continued use of existing apparatus room as deemed necessary.
4. There are no relocation costs and no interruption of emergency
services.
• Negatives:
L The .ceremonial Village Hall as envisioned in the Charrette is not
present thus eliminating the main focal point of the 6ivic center
and its positive effects on converting W. McIntyre Street into a
more pedestrian friendly, low speed street.
