CASE NO: 08-00699zc
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 property is composed of lots 4, 14, 15, 16 and 100' of 17, in block 25 of the
"Lawrence Estate Land Company's Subdivision" located approximately at 1007,
1019, 1027, 1033 SW 6th Street and 1028 SW 5t'' Street, from R-3 "Multifamily
Medium -Density Residential" to R-3 "Multifamily Medium -Density Residential"
with an SD-19 "Designated F. A. R. Overlay District" designating an F.A.R. of 1.04.
(Complete legal description on file with the Hearing Boards Office).
The following findings have been made:
• It is found that two variances for maximum height and front setback at this property
are being requested as a companion item in this agenda. The requested variances
are in order to increase the maximum height allowed from 50 feet to 64 feet and
reduce the required front setback from 20 feet 0 inches to 17 feet 0 inches.
• It is found that in this case the applicant is seeking to increase the F.A.R. under R-3
from 0.75 to 1.04 with the SD-19 Overlay District.
▪ It is found that the SD-19 "Designated F.A.R. Overlay District" was created as an
instrument to modify (increase or decrease) the F.A.R. on specific properties within
the City.
! it is found that additional F.A.R. will allow for additional development of a project in
mass or height, which would be out of scale and character with the surrounding area.
▪ It is found that a zoning change at this location to allow the SD--19 would set a
negative precedent and create a "domino effect" in regards to future zoning change
applications in the surrounding area.
• it is found that the result of the two requests, the variances for height and setback
along with the SD-19 request to increase the F.A.R will result in a building out of
scale and proportion with the surrounding area.
Based on these findings, the Planning Department is recommending denial of the
application as presented.
