Approx. 3690 SW 23rd Terrace
CASE NO: 2005-0980
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 two lots fronting SW 23rd Terrace (Complete legal
description on file at the Hearing Boards Office), from R-2 "Two -Family
Residential" to C-1 "Restricted Commercial".
The following findings have been made:
• It is found that to the north, south and east of the subject lots the area is designated
R-2 "Two -Family Residential."
• It is found that immediately to the west, the area is designated C-1 "Restricted
Commercial."
• It is found that the character of this section of SW 23rd Terrace is residential,
specifically R-2 "Two -Family Residential."
• It is found that the change to C-1 "Restricted Commercial" is not a logical extension
of that zoning designation and will bring a more intense commercial use to a
residential street.
• It is found that a zoning change at this location may set a negative precedent and
create a "domino effect" in regards to future zoning change applications.
• It is found that the actual R-2 "Two -Family Residential" designation allows 18
residential units per acre and the requested C-1 "Restricted Commercial"
designation will allow a maximum of 150 residential units per acre.
Based on these findings, the Planning Department is recommending denial of the
application as presented.
