Variance to permit additions to the existing two
story building W K/A the I Ching Building) on
above site, as per plans on file, to allow a
restaurant, offices, and retail uses, all -in
accordance with the conditions set for properties
identified by the City Commission as historic

RECO!•111ENDATIONS
PLANNING DEPT. APPROVAL. The I Ching building has been
designated by the National Register of Historic
Places and by the Heritage conservation Interim
Zoning Ordinance (No. 9317) as a historic structure
which should be preserved. The proposed construction
abides by all the requirements of the zoning designa-
tion - C-2A enhancing the interrelationship between
retail commercial land uses and pedestrian activity.
In order to preserve the historic building, a trade-
off has to occur in which the property owner can
derive an economic gain from the preservation, so
that no hardship is imposed on him. This trade off
consists of a development bonus in the F.A.R. and
a waiver for the required number of parking spaces.
PUBLIC WORKS No dedication is requested.

Re: Resolution No. 153-82 passed on September 20, 1982,
concerning 3033-35 Grand Avenue
Dear Mr. Gary:
Please be advised that this office represents GRAND SERVICES,
INC., a Florida corporation, which is the property owner of the
above -referenced property.
At the September 20, 1982 meeting of the Zoning Board of the City
of Miami, the Board approved Resolution Z13153-82, granting a
variance from Ordinance 6871, Article XXIII, S§4(23)(24) and (25)
in connection with the above -referenced property.
It•is my understanding that the approval of this Variance will
expire on March 20, 1983 unless a building permit based upon and
incorporating the variance is obtained on or before that date.
Unfortunately, various complications which have arisen in connec-
tion with this project, and in connection with the recent redesig-
nation of this property by the Heritage Conservation Board, have
given rise to a situation where, in all likelihood, the property
owner will be unable to obtain a building permit based upon the
ordinance before the expiration of this variance.

For this reason, I must respectfully request, on behalf of the
property owner, that the date upon which the variance would
otherwise expire be extended for one year in order to allow the
property owner to proceed with the restoration and rennovation of
this property in accordance with the plans previously submitted to
the Planning Department, the Urban Development Review Board and,
the Heritage Conservation Board.
I have enclosed for your information photocopies of the subject
Resolution, and the letter of November 17, 1982 from the Director
of the Planning and Zoning Board's Administration Department.
Should you require any further information in connection with this
request for an extension, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Very trulyyours,
Richard Sarafan
