Amendment to Article 9 of Zoning Ordinance 11000.
N/A.
Consideration of an Ordinance amending Ordinance
11000, as amended, the Zoning Ordinance of the City of
Miami, by amending Article 9, Section 906 of the Zoning
Ordinance, in order to modify the requirements
concerning Home Occupations in R-4, Commercial and
Special Districts; containing a repealer provision, a
severability clause and providing for an effective date.
Approval.
The proposed amendment is in order to allow greater
flexibility in home occupation uses located within
residences in nonresidential zoning districts. In recent
years, new development has been struggling with how to
allow for work/live units within mixed use projects in
certain zoning districts throughout the city. This
ordinance allows for greater percentages of residential
units to be utilized for home occupations and would thus
encourage live/work options in these recently approved
projects; subject to special permits and limiting
conditions.
