The Variance request is for relief from the provisions of Section 401 of the City of Miami Zoning Ordinance as follows: 17. In support of the application, the applicant is prepared to offer the following evidence, on the point enumerated at Section 1903 of the City of Miami Zoning Ordinance. Note: This application cannot be accepted for Zoning Board action unless all of the following six items are completed. Please list evidence to be produced and use additional sheets, if necessary. (a) Special conditions and circumstances exist which are peculiar to the land, structure, or building involved and which are not applicable to other lands, structures, or buildings in the same zoning district in that: In order to approach the national standards for an urban structure such as this project an additional number of parking spaces must be provided. This structure provides well over the required number of parking spaces in the Code but because of these additional spaces a 20 ft. height increase is needed. The number of total stories remains the same. (b) The special conditions and circumstances do not result from the actions of the petitioner in that: The structure can only function appropriately within the height variance. (c) Literal interpretation of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning district under the terms of the Zoning Ordinance and would work unnecessary and undue hardships on the petitioner in that: A literal interpretation would create an undue hardship on the petitioner in that the structure could not function adequately absent the additional parking and would render the project deficient. (d) Granting the variance requested will not confer on the petitioner that special privilege that is denied by the Zoning Ordinance to other lands, buildings, or structures in the same zoning district in that: Rev. 12-14-04 3 • The project seeks to better the community and only needs the variance to not create the problem found in many retail establishments of a lack of parking. This project wishes to come close to the national standard for structures of this type and well exceeds the required number of parking spaces. (e) The Variance, if granted, is the minimum variance that will make possible the reasonable use of the land, building or structure in that: The variance is the minimum needed. (f) The grant of the variance will be in harmony with the general intent and purpose of the Zoning Ordinance, and will not be injurious to the neighborhood, or otherwise detrimental to the public welfare in that: There will be no detrimental effect to the community or the surrounding area. 18.
