1010 Spring Garden Road, and 1000 Sunnybrook Road, Miami, Florida, as more particularly
described in Exhibit "A", attached and incorporated (collectively, "Property"), are adjacent to the
Culmer Metrorail station and generally bounded by State Road 836, the Metrorail guideway, and
Northwest 7t" Avenue and are zoned T6-8-L,"Urban Core Transect Zone - Limited"; and
WHEREAS, despite being designated mostly T6-8, "Urban Core Transect Zone", the
property in this neighborhood generally bounded by State Road 836, the Metrorail guideway,
and Northwest 7t" Avenue is developed to only approximately five percent (5%) of its overall
development capacity with many properties completely vacant; and
WHEREAS, there are approximately 20.93 acres of property in this area around the
Culmer Metrorail station; and
WHEREAS, the Culmer Metrorail station is the 5th most underutilized station along the
Metrorail network (based on a weekday average) according to the Miami -Dade County
Transportation and Public Works Department; and
WHEREAS, the City's Planning Department found that the lack of development around
the Culmer Metrorail station is possibly a reason for, or a consequence of, low Metrorail
ridership; and
WHEREAS, the City's Planning Department found that either of these scenarios can be
explained by a lack of Transit Oriented Development Area ("TOD") incentives or incorrectly
calibrated zoning; and
WHEREAS, Ordinance No. 13114, the Zoning Ordinance of the City of Miami, Florida,
as amended ("Miami 21 Code"), has many incentives directed towards TODs and these
incentives have yielded robust development around other TODs and Transit Corridors; and
WHEREAS, properties zoned T6-8-0, "Urban Core Transect Zone - Open," around the
Culmer Metrorail station are largely developed to the Transect Zone's intentions while properties
zoned T6-8-L, "Urban Core Transect Zone - Limited," around the Culmer Metrorail station are
not; and
WHEREAS, the City's Planning Department found that these two (2) factors, together,
suggest there is a need to correctly calibrate the zoning around the Culmer Metrorail station;
and
WHEREAS, the City's Planning Department found that rezoning the Property around the
Culmer Metrorail station from T6-8-L, "Urban Core Transect Zone - Limited," to T6-8-0, "Urban
Core Transect Zone - Open," will allow more robust mixed -use development without increasing
residential density; and
WHEREAS, the City's Planning Department found that a proposed text amendment
targeting T6-8-0, "Urban Core Transect Zone - Open," properties may further incentivize
development around the Culmer Metrorail station, though this proposed zoning change is
necessary and independent from that amendment; and
City of Miami Page 2 of 4 File ID: 7583 (Revision: C) Printed On: 9/9/2020
WHEREAS, the proposed text amendment confers benefits only in exchange for
Affordable Housing at or below 100% of Area Median Income ("AM I"); and
WHEREAS, Article 2, Section 2.1.3.1 of the Miami 21 Code states that "[n]ew
development should be structured to reinforce a pattern of Neighborhoods and urban centers,
focusing growth at transit nodes rather than along Corridors"; and
WHEREAS, in particular, TODs are uniquely equipped to absorb increased development
intensity due to the mitigating effects of fixed -rail mass transportation; and
WHEREAS, Article 2, Section 2.1.3.1 of the Miami 21 Code states that "[t]he City should
expand and enhance transit opportunities and connections throughout the City"; and
WHEREAS, Article 7, Section 7.1.2.8.a.3. and Section 7.1.2.8.f.2 of the Miami 21 Code
provide that a change to the Zoning Atlas of the Miami 21 Code may be made only to the next
Transect Zone and shall maintain the goals of the Miami 21 Code to preserve Neighborhoods
and to provide transitions in intensity and Building Height; and
WHEREAS, the City's Planning Department found that the proposed zoning change
furthers the goals and objectives of the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan ("MCNP"); and
WHEREAS, the City's Planning Department found that the proposed zoning change
furthers the goals of the Miami 21 Code centered on focused growth around transit and
preservation of neighborhoods through transitions in intensity and building height; and
WHEREAS, the City's Planning Department recommended approval of the proposed
zoning change from T6-8-L, "Urban Core Transect Zone — Limited", to T6-8-0, "Urban Core
Transect Zone — Open" of the Property; and
WHEREAS, the Planning, Zoning and Appeals Board ("PZAB") has considered the
goals, objectives, and policies of the MCNP, the Miami 21 Code, and all other City regulations;
and
WHEREAS, the PZAB has considered the need and justification for the proposed zoning
change, including changing and changed conditions that make the passage of the propose
zoning change necessary; and
WHEREAS, the PZAB considered whether this zoning change maintains the goals of the
Miami 21 Code to preserve Neighborhoods and to provide transitions in intensity and Building
Height; and
WHEREAS, after careful consideration of this matter, a motion to recommend approval
of the zoning change was made, wherein five (5) PZAB members voted in favor and four (4)
PZAB members voted against, failing to receive the required supermajority vote to recommend
approval pursuant to Section 62-17(d) of the Code of the City of Miami, Florida, as amended,
and Section 7.1.1.4(d)(4) of the Miami 21 Code;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE PLANNING, ZONING AND APPEALS
BOARD OF THE CITY OF MIAMI, FLORIDA:
