Approximately 3242 Charles Avenue [Commissioner Marc David Sarnoff - District 2] W. Tucker Gibbs, Esquire, on behalf of 3242 Charles LLC and Stirrup Properties P.O. Box 1050 Miami, FL 33133 (305) 788-2720 Current Zoning: T3-R Sub -Urban Transect Zone with a Village West Island and Charles Avenue NCD2 Proposed Zoning: T4-L General Urban Transect Zone with a Village West Island and Charles Avenue NCD2 Purpose: The proposed zoning change will allow a broader range of uses for the historically designated Stirrup House; which encourages the preservation of the historic structure. Planning Department Recommendation: Approval. Analysis: See supporting documentation. Planning, Zoning and Appeals Board: March 16, 2011 ANALYSIS FOR ZONING CHANGE Approximately 3242 Charles Ave. FILE NO 11-00113zc The subject proposal seeks to amend the Miami 21 Zoning Atlas and has been reviewed pursuant to Article 5 of the Miami 21 Zoning Code, Ordinance 13114, as amended. Application requests: A change to the current zoning classification of T3-R "Sub -Urban Transect Zone" with a " Village West Island and Charles Avenue NCD2 Overlay" (Neighborhood Conservation District) to T4-L "General Urban Transect Zone" with a "Village West Island and Charles Avenue NCD2 Overlay" The subject property is located within the Coconut Grove NET area, and consist of one parcel comprising .230 acres, located on the south side of Charles Avenue as described in Exhibit "A" (Complete legal description is on file with the Hearing Boards Section). Review and analysis of the proposed application finds that: • The subject property is the site of the "Stirrup House", a historically designated property. • The subject property is surrounded by T5-L and T4-L to the east and south, respectively, T3-R to the west and CI and T3-R to the north. • The proposed change from T3-R with a Village West Island and Charles Street (VWI & CS) NCD2 to T4-L wl VWI & CS NCD2 Overlay will serve as an appropriate transition from the commercial uses with medium density on the east to the single family density on the west. It will also allow a broader range of uses for the existing, historically designated "Stirrup House"; which will encourage the preservation of the structure. • Approving the requested change from T3-R to the proposed T4-L with a VWI and CA NCD2 Overlay, should not have a negative impact on the character of the area. • If approved, the proposed zoning designation will require a Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan (MCNP) FLUM amendment from Single Family Residential to Low Density Restricted Commercial or greater. Based on the aforementioned findings, the Planning Department recommends approval of the application as presented. Analysis for ZONING CHANGE File ID: 11-00113zc Yes No N/A. ® ® ❑ a) The proposed change conforms with the adopted Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan and does not require a plan amendment. ® ❑ ❑ b) The proposed change is in harmony with the established land use pattern. ® ❑ ❑ c) The proposed change is related to adjacent and nearby districts. ® ❑ ❑ d) The change suggested is not out of scale with the needs of the neighborhood or the city. ® ❑ ❑ e) The proposed change maintains the same or similar population density pattern and thereby does not increase or overtax the load on public facilities such as schools, utilities, streets, etc. ® ❑ ❑ f) Existing district boundaries are illogically drawn in relation to existing conditions on the property proposed for change. ® ❑ ❑ g) Changed or changing conditions make the passage of the proposed change necessary. ® ❑ ❑ h) The proposed change positively influences living conditions in the neighborhood. ® ❑ ❑ i) The proposed change has the same or similar impact on traffic and does not affect public safety to a greater extent than the existing classification. ® ❑ ❑ j) The proposed change has the same or similar impact on drainage as the existing classification. ® ❑ ❑ k) The proposed change has the same or similar impact on light and air to adjacent areas as the existing classification. ® ❑ ❑ I) The proposed change has the same or similar impact on property values in the adjacent area as the existing classification. ® ❑ ❑ m) The proposed change will contribute to the improvement or development of adjacent property in accord with existing regulations. ® ❑ ❑ n) The proposed change conveys the same treatment to the individual owner as to owners within the same classification and the immediate area and furthers the protection of the public welfare. ® ❑ ❑ o) There are substantial reasons why the use of the property is unfairly limited under existing zoning. ® ❑ ❑ p) It is difficult to find other adequate sites in the surrounding area for the proposed use in districts already permitting such use. 0 M IAM 121 MAP THOMAS AV WILLIAM AV NCD-2 Village West Island— & Charles Ave NCD CI-)RLFS A / Mariah Brown House AV 4111114444444444 Legend I HISTORIC SITES Area Specific Designations CR Village West Island and Charles Avenue NCD EnCoconut Grove NCD 150 300 600 Feet i 4 T1 Barnacle / E.W.F.

My client seeks to rezone the properties from T3R (Suburban Zone -Restricted) to CI (Civic Institution) to allow for the use of the property for parking consistent with the adjacent (on two sides) CI zoning (Coconut Grove Playhouse parking). The neighborhood surrounding this property is characterized by institutionaluses to the north and east (Coconut Grove Playhouse and parking lot), Commercial and residential uses along Main Highway and Charles Avenue to the east and south (Regions Bank, Calamari Restaurant, Camp Biscayne single-family development and Grove Garden condominium), the historic Stirrup House to the south and single-family residential to the west along Charles Avenue. This property is a "finger" of single family that is surrounded on two sides by the Playhouse parking lot. It is not a workable single-family property in that it is subject to a grandfathered parking lot with no buffer. This rezoning will allow the property tobe used as a parking facility with appropriate buffering as required by the Miami 21 Code. The proposed rezoning will allow for needed parking for the Playhouse and will encourage the preservation through adaptive reuse of several historic properties in this neighborhood by allowing those properties to utilize parking for their uses. This will allow the preservation of the residential look of this neighborhood by eliminating the need for parking lots on historic residential sites such as the Stirrup House and the Mariah Brown House. 1 I am available to provide you and your staff any additional information you require in your review of these applications. Thank you for your assistance. Sincerely, Ao‘ecki W.

Site Data: Address: 3227-3247 Charles Avenue Legal Description: See attached Acreage: 0.24 acres Ownership: 3247 Charles LLC Photographs: See attached Current Zoning Map: See attached Facts: The subject property currently has a land use designation of "Single Family Residential with a zoning classification of T3R. The property is situated with frontage along Charles Avenue. The current T3R zoning is inappropriate for this site and neighborhood for the following reasons: 1. The property is primarily surrounded by a CI zoned property (Coconut Grove Playhouse parking and structure) along its eastern and northern edges and by another T3R site along its western edge. 2. The property is adjacent to the historic Coconut Grove Playhouse site. Because it is adjacent to this major institutional property, the use of the site as a true single family residence is limited. 3. While the Charles Avenue neighborhood is zoned T3R (single family dwellings), the current T3R zoning classification is inappropriate in that it will not allow for the appropriate single-family uses on the property given that 2 of its 3 edges are zoned CI and next to a large parking lot servicing an institutional use. The CI zoning classification is more appropriate for this site and neighborhood for the following reasons: 1. The CI designation will unify its zoning with the adjacent Cl-zoned historic Coconut Grove Playhouse site which allows for a broader range of adaptive use of the existing Playhouse property by permitting this site to serve as a needed support function for the Playhouse. 2. The CI designation will allow neighborhood historic properties (Stirrup House and Mariah Brown House) the flexibility to utilize (with appropriate historic preservation review and approvals) the property for required parking thus allowing for their preservation through adaptive reuse. 3. The CI designation is a logical extension of the adjacent CI zoning category. 4. Pursuant to the Miami 21 Code, the CI zoning ensures appropriate transitions from the commercial uses along Main Highway to the Charles Avenue residential zone. 5. The CI designation is consistent with the successional zoning requirements and criteria as specified in the Miami 21 Code. NEI GHBORHOOD PHOTOGRAPHS CHARLES AVENUE and MAI N HI GHWAY 1.
