1080 BR1.CKELL MUSP
located at
1110 Brickell Avenue
File No. 06-00419v
Pursuant to Section 605.8 of Ordinance 11000, as amended, The Zoning Ordinance of the
City of Miami, Florida, the subject proposal has been reviewed for Variance as follows:
Front yard Setback (S.E. Miami Ave.): Required - 20'-0"
Proposed - 10'-0"
Request to Waive - I0'-0"
The following findings have been made:
It is found that the subject property and location, as an interior lot, between Brickell
Avenue and S.E. is` Avenue and with an existing office building structure already
locate within the site and the additional request of the City to incorporate liner units to
the proposed parking garage structure causes a substantial hardship, which limits
reasonable use of the property, therefore the requested front yard setback variance is
justified. These front yard setback variance is the minimum possible variance for
reasonable and effective use of the new residential tower as part of this MUSP.
• It is found that granting of this variance will not have an adverse effect on the
adjacent area due to the particular nature of the use proposed.
• It is found that the grant of this variance, for the specific use that the applicant is
requesting, is in harmony with the general intent and purpose of the SD-5 "Brickell
Avenue Area Residential -Office Districts" and is not injurious to the neighborhood.
Based on these findings, the Planning Department is recommending approval of the
application as presented.
