Applicant is the owner of the property located at 316 S.W. 28 Road, Miami, Florida, and more particularly described in Exhibit A, attached hereto and made a part hereof (the "Property"). The Applicant seeks a special exception for the purpose of developing an access ramp on the northwesterly portion of the Property to serve a parking structure to be constructed on the Property and on adjacent land owned by the Applicant. Specifically, the Applicant requests that the regulations applicable to one portion of his lot be extended twenty five feet to apply to the other portion of his lot. Property. The Property is part of an assemblage of three parcels. The total acreage of the three parcels is 0.606 acres. The parcels are described in Exhibit B and are referred to as Parcels A, B. and C therein. Parcel C is the Property. Parcels A and B are located adjacent to each other, and are zoned Office (11011). Both parcels are vacant. The Applicant plans to construct an Office Building on Parcels A and B. Parcels A and B are approximately 0.22 and 0.19 acres in size, respectively. The Property is located adjacent to, and northwesterly of, Parcels A and B. The Property, however, is divided into two zoning designations. The southeasterly portion of the Property Miami Office 4000 Southeast Fnancyl Carnar Miami FL 33131.23H (305) 577 28M Fax (305)358.1418 1900 Phdlgx Pond Wee 777 South F410er Drive West Palm Beach.

Gloria Fox December 18, 1990 Page 2 is zoned Office (11011). The northwesterly portion of the Property is zoned Residential ("R-111). The Property is approximately 0.20 acres in size. There currently exists a single family home on the Property which was built in 1948. The residence fronts on S.W. 28th Road, and has a backyard which is enclosed by a CBS wall with a chain link fence. The residence spans both the residential and commercial portions of the Property. Reauest. The Applicant requests that a special exception be granted to permit the construction of a parking ramp on the northwesterly portion of the Property. The Applicant requests this special exception pursuant to Section 903.5 of ordinance 11000 (the "Zoning Code") which provides, in relevant part: "In cases where zoning district boundaries divide a lot of record at the time the boundary was established, the Zoning Board ... may as a Special Exception authorize the extension of regulations for either portion of the lot not to exceed fifty feet into the remaining portion...". (emphasis added). Although half of the Property is zoned R-1, and the other half is zoned O, the Property is a lot of record. Section 2502 of the Zoning Code defines a lot of record as "... any platted lot(s) ..., intended as a single building site or unit subject to the requirements, limitations and exceptions of Chapter 54.5 Subdivision Regulations, Section 54.5-11 Building permits... �� . In relevant part, Section 54.5-11(e) of the Code of Ordinances of the City of Miami (the "Code") provides an exception to Section 2502 of the Zoning Code in instances in which an applicant proves that the division of the lots of record into separate parcels is described by deed prior to September 25, 1946. Therefore, a parcel described by deed prior to September 25, 1946 is a lot of record as described in Section 2502 of the Zoning Code. For purposes of further clarification, however, we submitted a request for interpretation to Joe Genuardi, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit C and made a part hereof, regarding the definition of a lot of record. Mr. Genuardi confirms in his response that the definition of lot of record as set forth in Section 2502 of the Zoning Code is subject to the exceptions set forth in Section 54.5-11 of the Code. He notes that because of Section 54.5-11, a parcel described by deed 9"1~- 695 E, Steel Hector & Davis Ms. Gloria Fox December 18, 1990 Page 3 prior to September 25, 1949 is the equivalent of a legally platted lot. Consequently, this interpretation by Mr. Genuardi, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit D, supports the conclusion that a parcel described by deed prior to September 25, 1946 is a lot of record as described in Section 2502 of the Zoning Code. We have attached hereto, as Exhibit E, a copy of a deed dated January 12, 1946, conveying Parcel B from James E. Ray and Mary K. Ray, husband and wife, to Mary J. Lechich, Lena Lechich and Joseph E. Lechich. Since there is a deed dated prior to September 25, 1949 describing the Property, it is a lot of record as defined by Section 2502 of the Zoning Code. COMRatibility. The requested special exception should be granted because it is compatible with the nearby S.W. 3rd Avenue character. In particular, the proposed use would be compatible with the office uses along S.W. 3rd Avenue and to the west of the Property. Special Exception Standards. The requested special exception should be granted for the following reasons. As noted on the Site Plan, due consideration has been given to adequacy of ingress and egress to the Property, to issues relating to offstreet parking and loading facilities, and to concerns regarding.signs and lighting. In addition, due consideration has been given to the provision of utilities and drainage, and to the preservation of natural features. In addition, care has been taken to avoid any, and all, potential adverse effects which may result by granting the proposed special exception. Summary. The requested special exception is permitted pursuant to Section 903.5 of the Zoning Code. Furthermore, the special exception will permit a use of the parcel which is compatible with the area, and which will help ameliorate the parking constraints in the area.
