REQUEST
The proposal is for a change to the Future Land Use Map of the Miami Comprehensive
Neighborhood Plan at the above mentioned location from "Duplex Residential" to "General
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 Map and the "Interpretation of the Future
Land Use Map."
The "Duplex Residential" land use category allows residential structures of up to two dwelling
units each to a maximum density of 18 dwelling units per acre, subject to the detailed provisions
of the applicable land development regulations and the maintenance of required levels of ser-
vice for facilities and services included in the City's adopted concurrency management require-
ments.
Community based residential facilities (14 clients or less, not including drug, alcohol or correc-
tional rehabilitation facilities) also will be allowed pursuant to applicable state law. Places of
worship, primary and secondary schools, child day care centers and adult day care centers are
permissible in suitable locations within duplex residential areas.
Professional offices, tourist and guest homes, museums, and private clubs or lodges are al-
lowed only in contributing structures within historic sites or historic districts that have been des-
ignated by the Historical and Environmental Preservation Board and are in suitable locations
within duplex residential areas, pursuant to applicable land development regulations and the
maintenance of required levels of service for such uses. Density and intensity limitations for
said uses shall be restricted to those of the contributing structure(s).
The "General Commercial" land use category allows all activities included in the "Restricted
Commercial" designations, as well as wholesaling and distribution activities that generally serve
the needs of other businesses; generally require on and off loading facilities; and benefit from
close proximity to industrial areas. These commercial activities include retailing of second hand
items, automotive repair services, new and used vehicle sales, parking lots and garages, heavy
equipment sales and service, building material sales and storage, wholesaling, warehousing,
distribution and transport related services, light manufacturing and assembly and other activities
whose scale of operation and land use impacts are similar to those uses described above. Mul-
tifamily residential structures of a density equal to High Density Multifamily Residential, are al-
lowed subject to the detailed provisions of the applicable land development regulations.
The nonresidential portions of developments within areas designated as "General Commercial"
allow a maximum floor lot ratio (FLR) of 7.0 times the net lot area of the subject property; such
FLR may be increased upon compliance with the detailed provisions of the applicable land de-
velopment regulations; however, may not exceed a total FLR of 11.0 times the net lot area of
the subject property. Properties designated as "General Commercial" in the Urban Central
Business District and Buena Vista Yards Regional Activity Center allow a maximum floor lot ra-
tio (FLR) of 37.0 times the net 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
services included in the City's adopted concurrency management requirements.
DISCUSSION
The subject area consists of one parcel comprising approximately 0.26 acres. It is located on
the north side of the block fronting Day Avenue. The block is bounded by US 1/South Dixie
Highway to the north, SW 37th Avenue to the east, Day Avenue to the south and Brooker Street
to the west. Higgs Street bisects the southern half of the block, dead ending on the backside of
a property on the northern side of the block, and is the eastern boundary of the subject
property. The site is currently designated "Duplex Residential". A "General Commercial"
Future Land Use designation is to the north, a "Restricted Commercial" Future Land Use
designation is to the northeast, a "Low Density Restricted Commercial" Future Land Use
designation is to the east, while "Duplex Residential" Future Land Use is to the south and west
of the subject property. The subject site is in the COCONUT GROVE NET area.
ANALYSIS
The Planning Department is recommending DENIAL of the application as presented
based on the following findings:
• There is an established residential neighborhood to the south and west.
• 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 throughout this neighborhood.
The MCNP Interpretation of the 2020 Future Land Use Map indicates that the "Duplex
Residential" land use category allows residential structures up to two dwelling units each to
a maximum density of 18 dwelling units per acre. The requested "General Commercial"
designation allows density equivalent to "High Density Multifamily Residential" or to 150
dwelling units per acre. This potential increase in residential density will be out of scale with
the established neighborhood and should be reserved for the commercial area immediately
adjacent on US 1/South Dixie Highway.
• MCNP Land Use Goal LU -1(1) encourages a land use pattern that protects and enhances
the quality of life in the city's residential neighborhoods and (5) promotes the efficient use
of land and minimizes land use conflicts. A change to General Commercial is not a logical
extension of that category; "General Commercial land uses would represent a potential
intrusion of commercial uses into a low density neighborhood.
• 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 Housing Policy HO -1.1.7, states the City will continue to control, through restrictions
in the City's development regulations, large scale and/or intense commercial and industrial
land development which may negatively impact any residential neighborhood.
• MCNP Housing Policy HO -1.1.8 states that through land development regulations, the City
will protect and enhance existing viable neighborhoods in those areas suitable for housing.
2
• The 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.
• The analysis is NOT based on a proposed project. The highest potential use is being
considered.
• The approved Miami 21 zoning designation on this parcel is T3-0. The surrounding Miami
21 zoning designation is T6-8-0 to the north and northeast, T4-0 to the east, and T3-0 is to
the west and south of the subject property.
These findings support the position that the Future Land Use Map at this location and for this
neighborhood should NOT be changed.
