Harrison, Jr., we are submitting a Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan Amendment requesting an amendment from Medium Density Multifamily Residential to Restricted Commercial for 1760 SW 7th Street and a Rezoning Application from R-3 Multifamily Medium — Density Residential with a SD-12 Overlay District and C-1 Restricted Commercial to SD-14 Latin Quarter Commercial -Residential and Pedestrian Pathway Designation on SW 8th Street for 1741 SW 8th Street and 1760 SW 7th Street, Miami, Florida. This request follows a recent approval by the City Commission of the exact same request for the parcels directly to the east. The Planning and Zoning Department's recommendation was for approval. This request is a logical extension of the existing land use and zoning of the abutting properties to the east. Our further analysis as to why this request is appropriate is elaborated in the applications. We thank you for your consideration. Should you have any questions, please call me at (305) 579-0736.

Rev. 08/15/03 I, Gloria M. Velazquez on behalf of John C. Harrison, Jr. hereby apply to the City Commission of the City of Miami for an amendment to the Zoning Atlas of the City of Miami as more particularly described herein and in support of that request, furnish the following information (see Article 22 of the Zoning Ordinance): 1. Address of property: 1741 SW 8th St and 1760 SW 7t' Street, Miami Florida 2. Folio number: 01-4103-026-0480 / 01-4103-026-0330 3. Two (2) 11x17" original surveys of the property prepared by a State of Florida registered land surveyor within six (6) months from the date of the application. Attached 4. Affidavit and disclosure of ownership of subject property and disclosure of interest (pages 4 and 5). Attached 5. Certified list of owners of real estate within a 500-foot radius of the outside boundary of property covered by the application (pages 6 and 7). Attached 6. At least two photographs that show the entire property (land and improvements). Attached 7. A clear and legible copy of the recorded warranty deed and tax forms of the most current year that shows the present owner(s) and legal description of the property. Attached 8. A clear and legible copy of the subject property's legal description on a separate sheet of paper. See Exhibit "A" 9. Present zoning designation(s): R-3 Multifamily Medium — Density Residential with SD-12 Buffer Overlay District and C-1 Restricted Commercial Future zoning designation(s): SD-14 Latin Quarter Commercial — Residential and Pedestrian Pathway Designation on SW 8th Street 10, Statement explaining why present zoning designation is inappropriate. The current zoning does not allow the parcels which are to the North to be developed as one large developable parcel with the parcels to the South. Having a larger tract to develop will ensure a well thought out designed project for this area. This area is in need of revitalization and allowing for this zone change will promote urban infill in a neighborhood that needs it. 11. Statement as to why proposed zoning designation is appropriate. The zoning requested will allow for the further enhancement in an area that is blighted. This zoning will encourage new development which in turn will enhance the quality of life for the neighborhood. New development will bring about revitalization to an area that needs is.
