Approximately 790 NW 44 AVENUE.
CASE NO: 2005-0937
Pursuant to Article 4, Section 401 of Ordinance 11000, as amended, the Zoning
Ordinance of the City of Miami, Florida, the subject proposal has been reviewed for an
amendment to the Zoning Atlas as follows:
The request is to change the Zoning designation as follows:
The subject property consists of one lot facing NW 44th Avenue(Complete legal
description on file at the Hearing Boards Office), from R-3 "Multifamily Medium -
Density Residential" to C-1 "Restricted Commercial".
The following findings have been made:
It is found that immediately adjacent to the north and west of the subject property, the
area is designated R-3 "Multifamily Medium -Density Residential," and the abutting
property to the south is designated C-1 "Restricted Commercial."
• It is found that the change to C-1 "Restricted Commercial" is not a logical extension
and will represent a commercial intrusion into residential streets. Although the
character of NW 44th Avenue at this specific location is commercial in nature, the
general character of NW 44th Avenue is multifamily residential.
• It is found that a zoning change to C-1 "Restricted Commercial at this location may
set a negative precedent and create a "domino effect" in regards to future zoning
change application.
• It is found that the current zoning designation allows 65 dwelling units per acre and
the requested C-1 "Restricted Commercial" zoning designation allows up to 150
dwelling units per acre.
Based on these findings, the Planning Department is recommending denial of the
application as presented.
