Section S. - MMIMUM r BOOR Ar,rA - Mormally, all of the multinle- family districts have a set minimum nine for efficiencies, 1-bedrooms and 2-bedrooms. however, this particular district we have found that the dwellinq units tend and as has been sunclested, should he con- niaerably larger than any other units that you might find elsewhere in the City. In discussinq this with some of the developers that have worked in the area and want to work more in the area, they have no Problem with increasing the minimum size of the unit un to 1,000 feet. The existing standard, incidentally, is 400 square feet for efficiencies, 550 for one-hedroom, 650 for two -bedrooms. They feel that the base 1,000 square feet for any type of unit is appropriate and'it. does, if you will, correspond to, in a way, to the decrease in density which i referred to in the early part of the R-3B regulations. Section 9. - USABLE OPEN SPACE - In the same. The interesting thinq here - we're not suggesting an additional requirement but if the bonus incentive for putting_ parking under the building works, we're going to end up with significant amounts of green space and oven space around the site that would normally be used for parking. And we feel this is quite a nlus and particularly as the Urban Develonment Review Board is very landscaped -oriented, we think we're going to have some very lush, pleasant surroundings for any new apartment buildings in the area. Section 10. - LANDSCAPI*I(: - As I mentioned earlier, with regard to landscaping particularly across the front of the building, we felt that our landscape standards which are used throughout all the other districts are not particularly sufficient for the Brickell area. And without getting into detail, we simple specify a tree every so often or for every so many square feet and we specify the size and type of that tree more specifically than we had in the past. I'm working on Section 10. - (c) - if the Review Board feels that the standards we have set forth above aren't sufficient landscaping - they do have the authority to require additional landscaping pursuant to this provision. Sub -section (2) is basically the same except again, we specified a little areater hei.ght_.than ordinarily, would have been required under the existing R-3A. - Section 11. - PRELI74INARY DEVELOPMENT PLAN REVIEW - Thenthewhole kicker, as I mentioned at the beginning with the new district, is. granting the Urban Development Review Board the authority to approve or disapprove plans. If the decision is not acceptable to the appli- cant, then they may go directly to the City Commission in appeal of the Urban Development's, let's say denial or refusal, to forward their application to the Building Department for a permit. Again, I don't want to belabour the point, the U.D.R.B. is a very good Board. They work very efficiently; spend a lot of their time and as they are pro- fessionals in the architectural and landscape field, they do an extremely fine job. Section 12. - OFF-STREET PARKING - Administratively, we have been requiring in the R-3A district and several other planned district areas, that a minimum of 2 cars be nrovided notwithstanding the requirements of the parkinq section of the Zoninct Ordinance and this simply states that fact. And now that I stand here, I realize that you do not have that Section vet. Would you pass them out to the Members, Mme. Chairman? It did qet left out, however. I give it to you today. I would like to do two other things if I may. If you would turn to the 3rd page of the requla tions. Sub -section 3 - REAR YARD. I mentioned to you there t:ras no chance which is true. however, it was - pointed ;out by the public that was sitting in the audience at the workshop at the - 6 - January 16, 1950 Item 1 PAB • last meeting that: there were a couple of inconsistencies. And where it , says in (a) twenty-four. (24) frc;t,; we ugne'st cha'nclin7 that to twr..nty- five (25) feet to be other 'ditncnsions that occur along the Ordinance. So what: 'I've clone is, I've hiven you two sheet.^, to insert which brings our clra:ft cony to you completely up-to-date. nncl that; occurs in two' locations in par.agrnph (a) , Sub -section 3. Those two sheets Z handed out 'do put that in the nroner form. That hasically ,ta%es care of nart (a) of the petition toniclht. Let me add just a few comments with rectard to the anplication of this I (Jistrict. The City of Miami ,probably has studied this area between 15th Road and 25th Road a minimum number of six times in�.my, ;tenure with the City;of`Miami. The last time, although it was done a number of years ago, was the most comprehensive of the lot. And as a result, we act a new, R-CII zoning on ;the northern end, P,-C-1 and we attempted to apoly P-3A uniformly to the northwestnrly sicle of Bricl-ell 'just as we hacl recommended applying the R-5A on 'the southeasterly side of P,rickell uniformly. I1owever, there was some concern at the Commission level and they did not want to re --,zone the whole area. So therefore, we ended up with a very snotty application and that indicates the P-3A zoning down on the westerly end, left out a lot there in the middle and anpliecl. 3 more lots and has been basically chanaing_the zoning - I'm referring to the Commission - Ion an applicationbasis. Noa %•:e never have recom- mended this type of approach. The Denartment has consistently said the zoninct should be uniform "on that 'side of the street and .that is the basis that we are providing Lhis.narIt (b) recommendation to you this evenina, to: uniformly re -zone the area from the R-1 and the P-311 status to the proposed district of R-3B.' I'll be clad to answer, questions,.Mme. Chairman. Mr. Whipple: Mrs . Lichtenstein asks, a question.:, Is the R-3B only on Pricl h elAvenue? .'That' is our only ,Proposed ;annlication tonight. If there are other areas that mi.al-it be des iral5le fo'r this, It could . be used because it. will be i full-,fIedrled,'dI trict in the 7onina` Ordinance. however., we only have -`plans at this time`for th6`8ricke11 area. liere's another question': U;)E OF YARD 11RrAS (b) 11 SOLID TEXTURBD t4ASONRY WALL SIX rEET IN :11EIGIiT - why? This was a mandatoryz requirement, again, ' to provide some ki.ncl of . barrier '}iet,.s een this multiple- fami.ly use and the sinale;- family resi- dences that were abutting this district. And we have therefore. just mandatorily suggested a six foot wall. Pars. Rockafellar.s I find trouble with an 8' wall. There's one in i back of us and it completely "shuts the air off from adjpinng properties. If: they have alcook-out in their 'back yard or anything like that, it completely sliutts`.the breeze off. n 6' will is about the average height of a man" and I" think it would be much more desirable than an 8' . Mr. Milian: Mr.W}ii.nple, what is presently in the R-311 zone that is rictht next to the P-1, zone? What' is the heicrht of a iaa11 that you. re requiring at the pre sent time? Mr. Nhipple: 1.et me' refer. ,to the ma'n. You see the R-31 and there's a black' line before it' ge.t:; to-'P.-_] - we're . requ6sting a minimum G' concrete wall on that rPa'r. line separatinq the two districts - we're requiring G' now. Mr.. Milian: tnr✓ does it have to he a masonry wall? c•1hy.'no t a wood fence?, ' I f-i nd it unpleasant to have a in,asonr, w.,.i in my.. back_: yard. I don't- 'knaa `how Poolile in the 11-1 ::cane would feel ;.bout: 'semctlrind dike that. -7 January 3.0 , 1980 Item 1 P 1I3 `•1r. tqhipple: That is a valid Point. I would only suggest that we felt that the permanency involved was a masonry wall; it was important and if this Boardso desired, perhaps we Could introduce that flexibility to the.type'of walls along to the Review Board so that they could comment °and decide or work with the developer as to the type of wall. I don't think I have any problem with that, do you Mr. Reid? Mrs. Lichtenstein: P4r. .-Thipple, it shouldn't look: li!•:e a Chinese wall uniformly across the back.Just so it doesn't look like an institution along that R-1 that these peoule woulrl he looking at. Mr. Whipple: I think we'll have some testimony tonight regarding calls. We had occasion to try to work out a solution concerning walls and it goes .from one end to the other.; those that don't want the wall because they feel their light and air and visibility is being impaired; and there's theothersthat want the wall as high as the law allows. It's a,question that I don't think singularly, you can answer. dr. Luaces: My question is swimming pools. Arr�'regulations in other areas o'f the City the same as you are applying here? Everybody would like to have a swimming pool and I understand the`requlations are not the same. klhy? mr. Whipple: The only difference is that the R-3A and this Ordinance specify that they not occur in the rear yard which is adjacent to the R-1 property that .is_on Miami' Avenue. we felt that if the pool could be interior or on one of the sideareaslocated array from the single- family residential that it mould not be as detrimental or problemary. You could have one net to the wall in R-1 but not in the multiple - family. There is a certain Philosophical point with regard to zoning that single-family residential is deemed to be the highest zoning. And we still respect that today. The single-family owner can basically do what he wants in conformance with general guidelines and rules. However, if there's an infringement on others, there is regulation needed so it doesn't modify or be detrimental to the sanctity of the single-family resident. That's what is being promoted here. Mrs. Lichtenstein: ttr. 17tipple, I don't understand the Limitations on Apartment Use, Section 2.` - (2): ANY OUTSIDE SERVICE AND STORAGE AREAS OR rACILITIE ST-TALL BE PROPERLY SCREENED FROM vlmn FROM A14Y PUBLIC RIGIIT'OF-WAY. FSr. S9hipple : This was ' probably ,the "second or, third amendment to the R-3A that was put in and what was simply happening is that`the:end of the'parking;;area you have an opening and.you:go into the `parking area and right at the very end, as you stand in the driveway, you can see the dumpsters or the garbage cans or you have a trash area, say, out near the front which is exposed as you're going down the street; not necessarily directly on the street but you know, you could see the dumpsters pitting there right in the front yard and we feel this isn't the character of nrickell Avenue. So we're simply requiring that it not be visible from the Public -right-of-way; that they can nut tip a wall; keep it in the back and do a return enclosure if it's up in the front so that you cannot see this trash or narbaae area. Mrs. Lichtenstein: I didn't know ;ghat the intent was there,. ,either a wall or landscaping or. what. Mr. Whipple: The R-3A provision as it exists today requires ;Site elan approval by the Planning Department. And when we have a provision li}ce that, we make sure `it's substantial in nature and that it is screened before we -willsign off the plans. flow he U.D.R:6'. will.be -a- January 16, 1980 Item 1 PAB doinq this and we'll probably be a5sistinc.t. So It is a judgment item but it's brincting to the attention of'a developer that, something has to be done. You just can't put it out in the street; you'll have to screen it with a wall or hide it; put it behind the building even or whatever. Mrs, Rockafellar: Are there any more questions before we qo into the public hearing?Being none`, are will hear first from all those who are in favor of the new R-3B.' Mr. Broom: My name is George Brown. I live at.`9221 S,111 70th Street. I'm employed by the Green Comt)anies which owns �11 a' c xoberty that's involved in tile area to be rezoned. I think it's important to'realize ,that this proposed new district has been in a crucible for a long time now. For over 'a year, we and another orooerty owner in the area now shown as R-1 have,been before various Boards of the City ,or the City Commissiontrying to wort: out an approach that's satisfactor,i to us and to the community to allow the Brickell Avenue area to reach a conclusion. This Ordinance reduces the R-3A as a present zoning that was promised basically to the R-1 area in the past by 331, It increases the minimum sire of the unit. I believe it offers a likely improvement in architectural design because for the first time, the Review Board will be able to allow modifications to tote into concept overhangs, privacy areas and other things that were not in the original R-3A. The City of Miami's R-3A as it consists today, penalizes the developer any time he breaks a wall; any time lie doesn't build a square boy:, lie ctoes straight up and down. The City Commission has told us and other people that they were unhappy were the R--3A and we responded both to the Planninq Board and the City Commission that one of the problems of the"R-3A district was simply there was no way to sav that you can change the wall without being penalized. In ordex to have an overhang over your front door, for instance, it's possible because you look, at the F F.A.R. from a bird's eye view but you will lode that floor area not only on the second floor .-there you could use, it, but you also lose it oil the first floor where you've actually provide..d a benefit by having an overhang so that you're not standing out in the rain as you open the door. Thereare a number of little -items that we wind up in this, Ordinance,in the old R-M Ordinance., that there was no.fle:ibility'for an intelligent director 'or the Planning Department to say, 'lie} r this mattes'sense It's good for the community; it's good for the people in the community.' These changes in this Ordinance I think will lead to better develop- ment of the R-3A that is presently exiistina You'll have better design. The second thing that happens, I think, is that the present R-1 area will be improved. That sounds funny. Presently there's about 1300 feet of I1-1 area. Of that, 600 feet is in developer's hands waiting for eventual develonment- and that 600 feet has 4'or 5 houses on it which are basically unoccupied. In addition, there's 100 feet of that 1300 feet that is vacant; nothing was ever built on it. And of the remaining 600 feet, there are I believe 6 Houses and of those I think there are 3 that are owner -occupied at this time. That district that'-, sho...n 12-1 on Brickell from 15th Road south at this time, is not the handsome district it ought to be. The reason is really that a lot of it was never developed. It never way; a suitable - really South Miami is a beautiful residential area but Brict;ell has forever almost, had a very high traffic count; it had very high noise. Today, if you'll look at the other side of the road where we're R-5A, these lots that You're talking about now mating them 11-313, are Looking up at 15. to, 20-story buildings. Now they're set back nicely and they're lanclscaned -9- January 16, 1980 Item 1 PAB Commission, the Planning Advisory Board for a period now r.unninu close to two years honing to be a h I n to r.1r�,v,?l.oa Ole property I'm addressi.nq myself to this evening. During this period of time, the character of Drickell Avenue is chanrrinq very substantially particularly on the west side, we see this area now as one of very e;nensivp housinn. It has been compelled by what has happened to constructioncosts, land costs in that area and we are quite pleased in general with the'nlans that are beina established for this new zoning district. We think.` however., that what's happening here isn't fully appreciated. The basic numbers of .400 square feet per unit and a .6 F.A.R., at: that density implies that there's goina to be 1440 square feet on the average per unit. We believe it would be much more appropriate to have a much higher usable area in these apartments. We see these houses selling in the neighbor-. hood of $200,000. They're going to be a very natural complement to what's on the other side of. South Miami Avenue in the rear. And in that reaard, we see puttinq 100? of the parking underneath the building. That attain creates a problem because if you take - and there's compli- cated numbers involved here and I sometimes find it admirable and, in e nlicable that people can sit in a meeting like this and really under- stand it all. .Put we're talking about 2400 square feet of land area providinct enouqh area for l unit with a .6 F.A.R. That's 1440 squaIre. ` feet of buildable area within the F.A.R. definition. And with 2-)% around cover, if you take the 237; of the 2,100, then you're un to,a maximum area of 552 square feet. And you can't build more than 3'floors, so that means vou're into 1656 square feet of maximum area. And -then if you put the cars underneath it, and you take 400 'square feet, out for that,. then you're down to 125G square feet there's no`w,:ay-you can build 1450 square feet of F.A.R. with a 23ti ground cover i"f:you are restricted by those parametors. And Lord }mows iihat happens when all the setbacks, come in. I'm alluding to a problem for which I thi.nlc I have,a solution: You're giving the U.D.R.B. an opportunity to have in respect to,these parameters. I wouldn't restrict that leeway, to one or tz,o sections, I. thins; you ouaht to qo all the i'+Yav because if you don't you're 7q6ina to put a harness around them th'-it's going to prevent: them from doing what I believe you would agree ultimately would be. the.: right thing'to,.do.

Is there any recoRnition'to the fact that we're startingout with a 20' neutral none between us and the back yard. of a single-family oemer on the other. side of the street? If'that isn't so, and you're really goi:ncT ,to`" compel us to put a wall along the rear. of our property line, are vou: really having us, in effect, 'just `,give;; over to the People living behind 'us what really is our ricrht to half of. that road? I just have one more thing. In this document, you still address your- self occasionally to anartments and anartment district I thinl: you would want to clean that up and be: sure that the word 'an artment' doesn't appear anywhere in this document. For.instance,,'Section 3.- AREA - (1) APA TMF1'NT USE - I would think you would want to say townhouses. Immediately above it in sub-paragrar)h (4) of Section 2 - it starts out - 'Ana rtine nts shall be ar.rancred'.
