2951 SW 38th COURT
CASE NO: 2005-0976
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 located at 2951 SW 38t'' Court (complete legal description on
file with the Hearing Boards Office), from R-2 "Two -Family Residential" to R-2
"Two -Family Residential" with an SD-12 "Buffer Overlay District".
The following findings have been made:
• It is found that immediately adjacent to the south of the subject property, the area is
designated R-2 "Two -Family Residential" with an SD-12 "Buffer Overlay District"
and to the west, east and north, the area is designated R-2 "Two -Family Residential".
It is found that the requested change will be beneficial to the area in that it will
provide an extension of the existing surface parking for commercial uses along SW
40th Street which would otherwise park within the neighborhood, and it will provide
new landscaping to the proposed parking area which will beautify and buffer the
parking use.
• It is found that the requested zoning designation change is consistent with the
underlying land use designation and therefore does not require an amendment to the
Future Land Use Map of the Comprehensive Plan.
• It is found that this change of zoning is in order to develop a mixed -use residential
project known as "Byblos" Major Use Special Permit ("MUSP").
• It is found that the requested change will allow greater flexibility in developing the
above mentioned project.
Based on these findings, the Planning Department is recommending approval of the
change of zoning as a component of a Major Use Special Permit application as
presented.
