Application No. 09-02
File ID 08-01086lu
REQUEST
The proposal is for a change to the Future Land Use Map of the Miami Comprehensive
Neighborhood Plan from "Office" to "Restricted Commercial". (A complete legal description is
on file at the Hearing Boards Office).
FUTURE LAND USE
Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan (MCNP) Policy LU -1.6.1 established future land use
categories according to the 2020 Future Land Use Plan Map and the "Interpretation of the Future
Land Use Plan Map."
Office: Areas designated as "Office" allow residential uses to a maximum density equivalent to
"High Density Multifamily Residential" subject to the same limiting conditions and a finding by
the Planning Director that the proposed site's proximity to other residentially zoned property
makes it a logical extension or continuation of existing residential development and that ade-
quate services and amenities exist in the adjacent area to accommodate the needs of potential
residents; transitory residential facilities such as hotels and motels; general office use; clinics and
laboratories; and limited commercial activities incidental to principal activities in designated
areas. Supporting facilities such as auditoriums, libraries, convention facilities, places of wor-
ship, and primary and secondary schools may be allowed with the "Office" designation.
The nonresidential portions of developments within areas designated as "Office" allow a maxi-
mum floor area ratio (FAR) of 1.72 times the gross lot area of the subject property; such FAR
may be increased upon compliance with the detailed provisions of the applicable land develop-
ment regulations; however, may not exceed a total FAR of 3.0 times the gross lot area of the sub-
ject property.
All such uses and mixes of uses shall be subject to the detailed provisions of the applicable land
development regulations and the maintenance of required levels of service for facilities and ser-
vices included in the City's adopted concurrency management requirements. Areas designated as
"Office" in the Urban Central Business District are exempt from this FAR limitation and are al-
lowed unlimited FAR.
Restricted Commercial: Areas designated as "Restricted Commercial" allow residential uses
(except rescue missions) to a maximum density equivalent to "High Density Multifamily Resi-
dential" subject to the same limiting conditions and a finding by the Planning Director that the
proposed site's proximity to other residentially zoned property makes it a logical extension or
continuation of existing residential development and that adequate services and amenities exist
in the adjacent area to accommodate the needs of potential residents; any activity included in the
"Office" designation as well as commercial activities that generally serve the daily retailing and
service needs of the public, typically requiring easy access by personal auto, and often located
along arterial or collector roadways, which include: general retailing, personal and professional
services, real estate, banking and other financial services, restaurants, saloons and cafes, general
entertainment facilities, private clubs and recreation facilities, major sports and exhibition or en-
tertainment facilities and other commercial activities whose scale and land use impacts are simi-
lar in nature to those uses described above, places of worship, and primary and secondary
schools. This category also includes commercial marinas and living quarters on vessels as per-
missible.
The nonresidential portions of developments within areas designated as "Restricted Commer-
cial" allow a maximum floor area ratio (FAR) of 1.72 times the gross lot area of the subject
property; such FAR may be increased upon compliance with the detailed provisions of the appli-
cable land development regulations; however, may not exceed a total FAR of 3.0 times the gross
lot area of the subject property. Properties designated as "Restricted Commercial" in the Urban
Central Business District and Buena Vista Yards Regional Activity Center allows a maximum
floor area ratio (FAR) of 10 times the gross lot area of the subject property.
All such uses and mixes of uses shall be subject to the detailed provisions of the applicable land
development regulations and the maintenance of required levels of service for facilities and ser-
vices included in the City's adopted concurrency management requirements.
DISCUSSION
The subject area consists of four parcels comprising approximately 0.93 acres. The parcels are
located within the block bounded by NE 801h Terrace to the south, N Miami Avenue to the west,
NE 82"d Street to the north and NE Miami Court to the east. The site is currently designated
"Office". Surrounding the subject site is also "Office" land use to the north, east and south. The
City limit is to the west. The subject site is in the Little Haiti NET area.
ANALYSIS
The Planning Department is recommending DENIAL of the application as presented based
on the following findings:
• The parcels are part of an office designation area.
• The requested change will represent an intrusion of commercial uses into the office
designation area.
• A land use change at this location may set a negative precedent and create a "domino effect"
in regards to future land use change applications.
• MCNP Land Use Policy LU -1.1.3 (1) provides for the protection of all areas of the city from
the encroachment of incompatible land uses; and (2) the adverse impacts of future land uses
in adjacent areas that disrupt or degrade public health and safety.
• MCNP Land Use Policy 1.1.1 provides that new development or redevelopment that results
in an increase in density or intensity of land use shall be contingent upon availability of
public facilities and services that meet or exceed the minimum LOS standards adopted in the
Capital Improvement Element.
These findings support the position that the Future Land Use Map at this location should not be
changed.
