HomeMy WebLinkAboutAnalysisANALYSIS FOR ZONING CHANGE Approximately 1028-40 SW 36 Court, 985-95 and 1031-35 SW 37Th Avenue CASE NO: 09-00140zc 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 subject property consists of three lots fronting South West 37th Avenue and two lots fronting South West 36th Court (a complete legal description on file at the Hearing Boards Office), requesting a zoning change from R-3 "Multifamily Medium -Density Residential" to O "Office". The following findings have been made: • It is found that the parcels are part of a Multifamily Medium -Density Residential designation area. • It is found that the requested O "Office" designation could be an isolated designation surrounded by R-3 "Multifamily Medium -Density Residential' designation at the north, east, and south of the property and the City limits on the west. • It is found that the requested zoning designation could exaggerated the height allowed on the residential areas, which are zoned R-3 north, south, and east of the property. • It is found that the traffic generated for the intensity allowed in the requested designation could impact the medium density area. • It is found that the zoning change request to O "Office" at the location may set a negative precedent and create "domino effect" in regards to the change applications. • It is found that even though the requested zoning change will represent an intrusion of office uses into the residential zoned area, no Land Use application is required and the requested zoning change would be consistent with the Miami Neighborhood Comprehensive Plan Map. Based on these findings, the Planning Department is recommending denial of the application as presented. 09eTO27 P 2x2M.P Analysis for ZONING CHANGE File ID: 09-00140zc Yes No N/A. ® ❑ ❑ a) The proposed change conforms with the adopted Miami Comprehensive Z ❑ Neighborhood Plan and does not require a plan amendment. ® ❑ ❑ b) The proposed change is in harmony with the established land use pattern. ❑ ® ❑ c) The proposed change is related to adjacent and nearby districts. ❑ ® ❑ d) The change suggested is not out of scale with the needs of the neighborhood or the city. ❑ ® ❑ e) The proposed change maintains the same or similar population density pattern and thereby does not increase or overtax the load on public facilities such as schools, utilities, streets, etc. ❑ ® ❑ f) Existing district boundaries are illogically drawn in relation to existing conditions on the property proposed for change. ❑ ® ❑ g) Changed or changing conditions make the passage of the proposed change necessary. ® ❑ Z ❑ ® ❑ ® ❑ ❑ ® ❑ ❑ Z ❑ ❑ h) The proposed change positively influences living conditions in the neighborhood. i) The proposed change has the same or similar impact on traffic and does not affect public safety to a greater extent than the existing classification. j) The proposed change has the same or similar impact on drainage as the existing classification. k) The proposed change has the same or similar impact on light and air to adjacent areas as the existing classification. 1) The proposed change has the same or similar impact on property values in the adjacent area as the existing classification. m) The proposed change will contribute to the improvement or development of adjacent property in accord with existing regulations. n) The proposed change conveys the same treatment to the individual owner as to owners within the same classification and the immediate area and furthers the protection of the public welfare. o) There are substantial reasons why the use of the property is unfairly limited under existing zoning. p) It is difficult to find other adequate sites in the surrounding area for the proposed use in districts already permitting such use.
