Zoning Ordinance of the City of Miami, Florida, by

Section 601 to add a new special sub -district entitled SD-

requirements.
PLANNING
RECOMMENDATION Approval.
BACKGROUND
AND ANALYSIS
The proposed amendment would create a new special district designed specifically to address
certain redevelopment issues in the King Heights/Orchard Villa area. The new special district
allows for greater flexibility in different residential types of development to accommodate attached
housing for homeownership and live/work units. This is accomplished with modifications to
setback and footprint requirements and allowances for smaller lots to allow for fee simple
homeownership of attached units. These regulations are consistent with the Model City
Community Revitalization District Home ownership Pilot Project as presented to the City
Commission and the Planning Advisory Board.
PLANNING ADVISORY BOARD Recommended approval to VOTE: 6-0
City Commission.
