Large Scale Development Review -
Capiro Tower
I have reviewed the Large Scale Development plans for the Capiro Tower located at 300
S.W. 12 Avenue and have the following comments.
The dedication of the 25 foot corner radius is required on both corners of
the site.
2. Building support columns conflict with the truck maneuvering area for the
loading spaces that exit onto S.W. 3 Street.
3. An agreement between the City of Miami and the property owner is
required for any landscaping and decorative sidewalk treatment located in
the public right of way. A Florida Department of Transportation permit is
required for improvements on S.W. 12 Avenue.
4. .All transitions from the established street profile grade to the building
flood elevation must be accomplished on private property. Stairs, ramps,
retaining walls, etc. will not be permitted in the public right of way.
5. All stormwater must be retained on site including the driveways and
plazas on private property adjacent to the public streets. All plazas and
driveways must be graded or trench drains provided to prevent "sheet
flow" from entering the right of way.
5. City of Miami driveway entrances, in compliance with A.D.A. standards,
shall be required.
7. Standard parking spaces require a 23 foot back-up distance.
In addition to these comments, the Public Works Department will require the following
street improvements:
