Re:	Miami-Dade Steel LLC – Application No. Z2022000010 – Non-Use Variance – Lake France Community Development District Objection Letter

Lake France Community Development District (“District”) is a local unit of a special purpose government established under Miami Dade County Ordinance No. 06-155, which District is a residential neighborhood and consists of One Hundred Forty (143) residential units. The Board of Supervisors of the District finds and determines, at this time, that the proposed NON-USE VARIANCE to allow for a structure that exceeds 45 feet to be constructed near District property is not in the best interest of the residents within the District.

Miami-Dade Steel LLC (“MDS”) applied for NON-USE VARIANCE to allow for a structure that exceeds 45 feet to be constructed on its property in contrary to the maximum building height for structures in the IU-2 District. MDS’s NON-USE VARIANCE application is numbered Z2022000010 (“Application”), which Application is scheduled for hearing before the Miami – Dade County Board of County Commissioners (“Board”) on April 21, 2022, and residents of the District have received the Preliminary Zoning Hearing Notice for the Application. Residents of the District have many concerns not limited to the following:

The potential for air, water, and soil pollution due to MDS steel production at the property
An unacceptable increase in noise due to traffic to the property and working mechanism within the property
The nature of the business on the property may increase incidences of theft of metal materials from within the District
An increase in traffic, including heavy construction trucks, that have the potential of damaging roads leading to the District and obstructing traffic around the District
The potential to decrease property values within the District
The proposed project is incompatible with the uses of the surrounding existing commercial properties.

The above-listed concerns are not inclusive or final; however, they are crucial to the quiet enjoyment of the community. The Board has reviewed the subject Application and publically accessible documents and finds that the Department of Regulatory and Economic Resources (“DERM”), has concerns as outlined in their memorandum dated February 8, 2022 (“Memorandum”), that the Board wishes to adopt by reference. The DERM Memorandum overlaps some of the District’s concerns. We want the overlapping

concerns and the specific concerns of the District to be addressed before this Application is approved, and MDS seeks a final development order.

As an entity created by the Board, we are aware of the mission to develop the Miami – Dade County, Florida (“County”) in the best interest of the residents. As you consider MDS’s Application, we also ask that you consider this letter and deny the Application as the requested deviation from current restrictions on the property would be detrimental to the public welfare and is incompatible with the surrounding areas.

Sincerely,

Demetrius Young, Chairman
Lake Frances Community Development District

LAKE FRANCES COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT REGULAR BOARD MEETING & PUBLIC HEARING
April 27, 2022

H. Old Business 2. Discussion Regarding Modifications to Lake Bank Slopes

The 20-Ft easement extends from 5 to 10 feet into the residents’ properties in order to create a berm and swale to retain the stormwater runoff from the properties as to prevent it from entering directly into the lake for water quality purposes. Flattening these areas would defeat the purpose of the permitted grading design. Furthermore, when flattening the top of the slope, one runs the risk of steepening the permitted 4h:1v slope or to filling a portion of the lake, neither of which would be acceptable for safety (making the slope too steep), or environmental reasons (filling wetlands).
