Ordinance rescinding Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan (MCNP)
amendment Ordinance Nos. 12332, 12333, and 12346 and readopting
amendments in a single ordinance
RECOMMENDATION:
It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached ordinance
rescinding and readopting amendments to the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan.
These amendments were previously adopted at two separate City Commission hearings
on February 27, 2003 and March 27, 2003. Adoption of this ordinance will bring the
City's comprehensive plan into compliance with State of Florida guidelines and allow a
second 2003 plan amendment cycle.
BACKGROUND:
On September 26, 2002, the City transmitted to the Department of Community Affairs
(DCA) proposed comprehensive plan amendments for review. Although final reading of
these amendments was scheduled for December 2002, the resolution of concerns raised
by DCA stretched into the new year, with final reading taking place on February 27,
2003. This unanticipated hearing impacted the planned 2003 plan amendment schedule.
In order to not to exceed the two annual amendment hearings allowable pursuant to Chap-
ter 163, F.S., amendments adopted in February and March 2003 must be rescinded and re-
adopted as a single amendment package. Modifications to the legislation have been made
to incorporate City Commission and Department of Community Affairs recommenda-
tions, and includes additional backup material (see attached Transportation Element Data
Inventory and Analysis and Response to Department of Community Affairs Objections,
Recommendations, and Comments reports) to assist the Department of Community Af-
fairs in completing their compliance review of the amendments.
