ROADS END VILLAGE
MAJOR USE SPECIAL PERMIT
928 SW 10th Street
Zoning Ordinance 11000
1. Section 1304.2.1 Application forms; supplementary materials
(a) Statements of ownership and control of the proposed
development or activity.
The Disclosure of Ownership Affidavit is provided in Article I.
(b) Statement describing in detail the character and intended
use of the development or activity.
Roads End Village is an urban townhome community
designed by Co'lado and Molina, Inc. The project consists of
twenty-six (26) urban villas with an excellent location in
Central Miami, adjacent to the Roads neighborhood. The
property is located minutes from Downtown Miami, Coral
Gables, Coconut Grove, and Key Biscayne. The design of the
proposed villas is innovative and features elevations with a
distinct Caribbean flavor that incorporate rich colors, tin roofs,
tropical shutters and verandas. The three-story villas are
gathered around a recreational area, which includes a pool
and gazebo. Prices for the townhome villas will begin at over
$400,000.
The site plan for Roads End Village features 22 three -bedroom
villas and four 2-bedroom villas. All of the homes will feature a
2-car garage located at the rear of the units in order to
maximize their efficiency. The flow of vehicular traffic has
been designed to minimize vehicular impacts on the
surrounding neighborhood by providing a one-way street
entrance to the development on SW 11 th Street and a one-
way exist on SW loth Street. All of the parking garages are
accessible only from the interior streets in order that the
pedestrian entrance to the townhomes remain uninterrupted
by vehicular traffic. This will also encourage pedestrian
activity in the City sidewalks adjacent to the property.

The property is currently developed with a legal non-
conforming industrial use. The redevelopment of the property
with the proposed townhome development will eliminate the
existing non -conforming use that is incompatible with the
surrounding residential area. in addition, the redevelopment
of this property with the Roads End Village townhomes should
help to spur additional infill redevelopment in this pocket of
the City located between SW 8r1 Street, 1-95 and SW l2th
Avenue that is already zoned for two- and three-family
developments.

Although recently there has been a great amount of new infill
development in the City of Miami, East Little Havana has only
recently begun to experience this demand. This area is a
transitional residential area from the single-family Roads
neighborhood to the retail areas on SW 8th Street. The strong
demand for new housing in the inner City and its surrounding
areas has created a shortage of single-family housing and
townhome housing in the City of Miami. The Roads End
Village townhomes will provide additional quality housing to
the City that will have strong appeal for young families and
professionals working in and around the Downtown and Coral
Way areas.
