ANALYSIS FOR LAND USE CHANGE REQUEST
Approximately 2101 and 2135 NW Miami Court and
2110, 2118 and 2134 North Miami Avenue.
Application No. LU- 2004-004
DISCUSSION
The proposal has been reviewed for a change to the Future Land Use Map of the Miami
Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan 1989-2000 from "Industrial" to "General
Commercial". The subject property consists of five lots facing NW Miami Court and four
lots facing North Miami Avenue. (Complete legal description on file at the Hearing
Boards Office).
Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan (MCNP) Land Use Policy 1.6.1., established
future land use categories according to the Future Land Use Plan Map and the
"Interpretation of the Future Land Use Plan Map". The subject properties are currently
designated "industrial" and the same designation is to the west, to the south, to the east
and to the north.
The "industrial' land use category allow manufacturing, assembly and storage activities
and generally includes activities that would otherwise generate excessive amounts of
noise, smoke, fumes, illumination, traffic, hazardous wastes, or negative visual impact
unless properly controlled. Stockyards, rendering works, smelting and refining plants and
similar activities are excluded. Residential uses are not permitted except for rescue
missions and live-aboards in commercial marinas.
"General Commercial": Areas designated as "General Commercial" allow all activities
included in the "Office" and the "Restricted Commercial" designations, as well as whole-
saling and distribution activities that generally serve the needs of other businesses; gener-
ally require on and off loading facilities; and benefit from close proximity to industrial
areas. These commercial activities include retailing of second hand items, automotive re-
pair 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.
Multifamily residential structures of a density equal to R-3 or higher, but not to exceed a
maximum of 150 units per acre, are allowed by Special Exception only, upon finding that
the proposed site's proximity to other residentially zoned property makes it a logical ex-
tension or continuation of existing residential development and that adequate services and
amenities exist in the adjacent area to accommodate the needs of potential residents. This
category also allows commercial marinas and living quarters on vessels for transients
•
•
The Planning and Zoning Department is recommending APPROVAL of the
application as presented based on the following findings:
• It is found that the requested Land Use change will allow the property to add
residential uses (by Special Exception) to the mix of uses on the property as it is
developed; this component has been found to be consistent with overall master plans
for nearby area.
• It is found that the subject property is ideally suited for mixed use given its proximity
to the Design District and Downtown Miami; the property also has convenient access
to major arterial roadway and highways.
• It is found that Goal LU-1. the City's promotes and facilitates economic development
and the growth of job opportunities in the City."
• It is found that Goal LU-1.3.6. the City will continue to encourage a diversification in
the mix of industrial and commercial activities.
These findings support the position that the existing land use pattern in this neighborhood
should be changed.
It also should be stated, that whereas MCNP Land Use Policy 1.1.1. requires development
or redevelopment, that results in an increase in density or intensity of land use, to be
contingent upon availability of public facilities and services that meet or exceed the
minimum LOS standards adopted in the Capital Improvement Element (CIE) (CIE Policy
1.2.3.). It is found that the attached Concurrency Management Analysis pertaining to
Concurrency demonstrates that no levels of service would be reduced below minimum
levels.

ASSUMPTIONS AND COMMENTS
Population increment is assumed to be all new residents. Peak -period trip
generation is based on ITE Trip Generation, 5th Edition at 1.4 ppv average
occupancy for private passenger vehictes. Transportation Corridor capacities and
LOS are from Table PT-2(R1), Transportation Corridors report,
Potable water and wastewater transmission capacities are in accordance with
Metro -Dade County stated capacities and are assumed correct. Service
connections to water and sewer mains are assumed to be of adequate size; if not,
new connections are to be installed at owner's expense.
Recreation/Open Space acreage requirements are assumed with proposed
change made.
