CASE NO: 07-00797zc
� r
Pursuant to Article 4, Section 401 of Ordinance 11000, as amended, the Zoning
Ordinance of the City of Miami, Florida, the subject proposal has been reviewed for an
amendment to the Zoning Atlas as follows:
The request is to change the Zoning designation as follows:
The subject property is comprised of several lots fronting SW 9t" Street and SW 5t"
Avenue (a complete legal description is on file at the Hearing Boards Office) from R-3
"Multifamily Medium- Density Residential" with SD -12 Buffer Overlay District to C-1
"Restricted Commercial with and SD -25 SW 8TH Street Special Overlay District".
The following findings have been made:
• It is found that this petition is part of a Major Use Special Permit named "La Quinta y La
Ocho" including several Class II's for a mix -use project.
• It is found that the subject property has an R-3 "Multifamily Medium -Density Residential"
with SD -12 Buffer Overlay District designation along SW 9`1' Street, which request to be
changed to C-1 "Restricted Commercial" with SD -25 SW 8TH Street Special Overlay District
in order for the parcel to have a uniform and consistent zoning designation.
• It is found that in this specific area, the character of SW 9th Street is residential,
specifically R-3 "Multifamily Medium -Density Residential".
• It is found that a zoning change at this location may set a negative precedent and
create a "domino effect" in regards to future zoning change applications.
• It is found that the requested change will represent an intrusion of commercial uses
into a medium density residential portion of SW 9th Street.
• It is found that the "R-3 "Multifamily Medium -Density Residential" designation
allows 65 residential units per acre and the requested C-1 "Restricted Commercial"
designation will allow a maximum density of 150 residential units per acre.
Based on these findings, the Planning Department is recommending denial of the
application as presented.
