Approximately 2451 NW 7th Avenue, 636 NW 24th Street, 636 NW
26th Street, 629, 635, 645, 655, and 665 NW 23rd Street.
CASE NO: 08-01320zc
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 properties located at 2451 NW 7th Avenue, 636 NW 24th Street, 636 NW
26th Street, 629, 635, 645, 655, and 665 NW 23rd Street (a complete legal
description on file at the Hearing Boards Office), are requesting a zoning change
from I "Industrial" to C-1 "Restricted Commercial".
The following findings have been made:
• It is found the properties are surrounded on the east (on the other side of 1-95
exchange), north, and south by an established industrial area. In addition, the
character in the area is industrial.
• It is found that the requested change will represent a potential intrusion of residential
uses into an industrial area. There are no residential uses in the vicinity of the
subject properties.
• It found that a zoning change to C-1 "Restricted Commercial' is not a logical
extension of that category; "Restricted Commercial' uses could allow for example
residential uses to a maximum density of 150 dwelling units per acre as well as
commercial activities that generally serve the daily retailing and service needs of the
public.
• It is found that the requested C-1 "Restricted Commercial' designation could be an
isolated designation surrounded by I "Industrial' designation at the north, east (on
the other side of 1-95 exchange), south, and west.
Based on these findings, the Planning Department is recommending denial of the
change of zoning of the application as presented.
