Case No. 2004-0863
VACATION AND CLOSURE OF A PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY, BEING THE
PORTION OF APPROXIMATELY NE 1" COURT , NE 30th STREET AND NE
31" STREET.
Pursuant to Section 55-15 (c) of the Miami City Code, the Planning and Zoning Department
has reviewed the proposed public right-of-way vacation and closure to determine whether it
is in the public interest, or whether the general public would benefit from the vacation of the
right-of-way.
The following findings have been made:
• It is found that this application was presented to the Plat and Street Committee and the
tentative Plat was approved unanimously. (See attached analysis).
• It is found that the vacation of the right of way is required to complete a mixed use
redevelopment project.
• It is found that upon compliance with conditions set forth below, the proposed right of
way vacation will comply with Section 55-15 (c) of the Miami City Code for public
benefit.
Based on these findings, the Planning and Zoning Department recommends
approval of the request subject to the following conditions:
1. The proposed site development shall include a minimum of fifteen (15)
percent of open space.
2. The applicant shall dedicate an easement mutually acceptable to the
applicant and the City of Miami Planning and Zoning Department, to
accommodate for a streetcar stop and a public access between NE 2nd Avenue
and Florida East Coast corridor in substantial conformance with Section
55-11(c)(2) of the Subdivision Regulations. The easement may be
accomplished by the recording of a separate instrument.
