Areas designated as "Light Industrial" allow all activities included in the "Restricted Commercial" and "General Commercial" designations, as well as wholesaling and distribution activities that generally serve the needs of other businesses. General Commercial: areas designated as "General Commercial" allow all activities included in the "Restricted Commercial" designations, as well as wholesaling and distribution activities that generally serve the needs of other businesses; generally, require on and off-loading facilities; and benefit from proximity to industrial areas. Furthermore, multifamily residential structures of a density equal to High Density Multifamily Residential (150 du per acre), are allowed subject to the detailed provisions of the applicable land development regulations.

NEIGHBORHOOD CONTEXT: GEOSPATIAL ANALYSIS The predominate FLU designation for the Applicant's 0.5-mile Study Area (the "Study Area") is "Medium Density Multifamily Residential, which comprises 21.5% of the Study Area relative to the Citywide percentage of 6.3%. This can be visually approximated by referring to the MCNP's FLUM map, please refer to Figure 5 and Table 3. When viewing the FLU -designated Multi - Family Residential Areas (color brown), there are large "brown" areas north of the Florida East Coast Railway and surround the Applicant's Properties to the north and west. The two other FLU -designated areas when combined (26.8% or approximately 961.4 acres) are the "Light Industrial" and "Industrial" areas that comprise the light purple and purple areas that parallel with the Florida East Coast Railway east -west corridor. This aligns with the rail -dependent businesses that still relay on this active Florida East Coast Railway. The FLU -designated "Light Industrial" designation is abutting the east and south of the Applicant's Properties. The remaining FLU is Duplex Residential, which is colored light orange. This FLU -designated area is mainly located south of the Florida East Coast Railway with another pocket located northwest of the Applicant's Subject Property. In reference to the companion Rezoning application (ePlan FilelD: PZ-22-15060), the City Commission recently approved a similar Rezoning and companion Comprehensive Plan Amendment applications for a similarly situated property located immediately west of the subject Property. Specifically, on September 23, 2021, the Future Land Use and Zoning designations for that property were amended to "General Commercial" and 76-8-0", respectively, pursuant to City Commission Enactment Numbers 14023 and 14024. These changes to the MCNP's FLUM and Miami 21 Code's Zoning Atlas aligns with Miami 21 Code's Article 7, Section 7.1.2.8(f.)(1.)(b.): "The need and justification for the proposed change, including changed or changing conditions that make the passage of the proposed change necessary."

The Levels of Service (LOS) testing is based on a potential increase in population for this area of 390 residents, where previously maximum population has been. Schools On January 10, 2023, Miami -Dade County Public Schools submitted its findings that it had tested the proposed change of land use and zoning and found that the school system has sufficient capacity to serve the application. Recreation and Open Space The MCNP requires a 10-minute 1/2-mile barrier -free walk to a park entrance to meet public Levels of Service (LOS). The Planning Department conducted an analysis in GIS to test the LOS for this proposal and found that with the potential increase in population, and it does not meet LOS standards. Potable Water The MCNP LOS standard for potable water service is 92.05 gallons per capita per day (PCPD). Consumption is assumed to be approximately 36,728 by residential uses; however, LOS standards do not take into consideration the consumption of non-residential use. Sanitary Sewer Transmission The MCNP LOS standard for Sanitary Sewer is 141 GPCD. The MCNP does not require testing of this County service. Please note that a Miami -Dade Water and Sewer Department is required. Solid Waste Collection The City's LOS standard for Solid Waste is 1.28 tons/resident/year. The Franchise Agreement the City maintains provides flexibility to address fluctuations in solid waste production. The MCNP has updated its LOS standards for the City with the most recent update of the Transportation Element. In the December 28, 2022, a Transportation Concurrency was performed based on existing and proposed FLR and density for the application for the projects located at the following sites, the maximum potential impact as it relates to trip generation was calculated for the following property addresses: 7450 N Miami Avenue, 7329, 7357, and 7401 NW Miami Court. The proposed FLR and densities have the potential to result in a total increase of approximately 11,900 daily trips and 1,700 P.M. peak hour trips. Based on this preliminary analysis, additional information is needed to help determine the impact of this application. At the time of redevelopment, a traffic study may be required. The traffic study should include traffic mitigation if significant impacts to operating levels of service are identified.

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ANALYSIS The following is an analysis of the application relative to the Goals, Objectives, and Policies of the MCNP. Criteria 1 MCNP, Transportation Element, Policy TR-1.1.5: "The City will encourage new development to be structured to reinforce a pattern of neighborhoods and urban centers by focusing growth along transit corridors and around transit nodes and centers." Analysis 1 The Applicant's Properties are accessible from two City -designated "Transit Corridors", which is defined per Miami 21 Code, Article 1, Section 1.1 as "a designation established by the City involving an area not exceeding a one - quarter (1/4) mile radius from a non -limited access thoroughfare that included designated transit stop locations and is served by one or more mass transit route(s) with designated transit vehicle(s) operating at an average of ten (10) minute or less headway Monday thru Friday between the hours of 7:00 am through 7:00 pm. Multiple transit routes or types of transit vehicles may be added cumulatively under this definition for the purpose of parking reductions. There are two Transit Corridors located directly north (NW 75 Street) and east N Miami Avenue of the Applicant's Properties. Finding 1 Complies Criteria 2 MCNP, Land Use Element, Policy LU-1.2.1: "The City defines blighted neighborhoods as areas characterized by the prevalence of older structures with major deficiencies and deterioration, high residential vacancies, widespread abandonment of property, litter and poor maintenance of real property. Declining neighborhoods are defined as areas characterized by the prevalence of structures having minor deficiencies, a general need for improvements in real property, significant declines in real property values, high vacancy rates in commercial structures and increasing difficulty in obtaining insurance. Neighborhoods threatened with decline are defined as areas characterized by significant but infrequent property maintenance neglect, an aging housing stock, declining property values, general exodus of traditional residents and influx of lower income households." Analysis 2 Staff reviewed the Miami -Dade County's Address Geographic Information System (GIS) dataset "Addresses" and identified a field called "YRBUILT" for the Applicant's Study Area. This field identifies the year of construction for the building structures. The average construction year for these properties was "1956". The Applicant seeks to revitalize this area by redeveloping their Properties in adherence to the City of Miami's City Code, Chapter 55 Subdivision Regulations, MCNP's Goals, Objective, and Policies, and Miami 21 Code's regulations. If the Applicant chooses to redevelop their Properties to a Residential, Multi -Family Residential Use, which is by right. The Applicant's future redevelopment plans have the potential in being the "catalyst of change" in modernizing the housing stock and economically revitalizing the Little River area into a new burgeoning redeveloped area.

CONCLUSION _q"43 The Applicant's requested change to its underlying, existing Properties' MCNP's FLU designations from "Medium Density Multifamily Residential" and "Light Industrial" to "General Commercial" was reviewed based on the merits of this application being compliant with MCNP's Goals, Objectives, and Policies and Miami 21 Code's Successional Zoning requirements. Staff's findings show the predominance of residential FLU designations within the Study Area with a desnsity ranging from 18 to 65 dwelling units with the more intensive FLU designations to the the north and south of the Property following the established east -west Commercial Corridors of NW 71 Street and NW 79 Street. TThis is juxataposed to currently changingconditions in this immediate area with the City Commission recently approving a similar Comprehensive Plan Amendment and companion Rezoning application for a similar property with the same existing, underlying MCNP's Future Land Use Designation and associated Miami 21 Code Transect Zones located west of the Applicant's Properties.. Specifically, on September 23, 2021, the Future Land Use and Zoning designations for that property were amended to "General Commercial" and 76-8-0", respectively, pursuant to City Commission Ordinances 14023 and 14024. Not only do these recently approved Rezoning and companion Comprehensive Amendment applications demonstrate "change" but also a "new precedent" with the possibility of revitalizing the "Little River" area with transit -oriented redevelopment projects while modernizing the existing, dated housing stock and aged roadways, water, sewer utility systems. G. RECOMMENDATION Pursuant to Policy LU-1.6.4 of the MCNP, as amended, the Planning Department recommends "Approval" of the requested change to the MCNP's FLUM from "Medium Density Multifamily Residential" and "Light Industrial" to "General Commercial" for the Applicant's Properties (14 NW 75 Street, 7409 NW Miami Court, 7450 N Miami Avenue, and 7401 NW Miami Court).
