2240 SW 12t AVENUE
CASE NO: 2006-1080
Pursuant to Section 401 of Ordinance 11000, as amended, the Zoning Ordinance of the
City of Miami, Florida, the subject proposal has been reviewed for variance as follows:
Variance for parking required: 8 Spaces
proposed: 0 Spaces
Request to waive: 8 Spaces
The following findings have been made:
• It is found the requested parking variance is for a new recreational building as part of
the new Tennis Center within the existing Bryan Park. This expansion will facilitate
to the community a better use of the new tennis courts along with the rest of the park.
The required eight (8) parking spaces will take away precious green space currently
being used by children and members of the community. In addition, the loss of park
green space represents a hardship to the City, which justifies the requested variance..
• It is found that the proposed project offers the most reasonable solution to the design
problem facing this particular site.
• It is found that the proposed project is consistent with the City's urban infill
objectives for this area of the city.
• It is found that the proposed plans reflect the minimum amount of variance for the
proposed use on that property; and further that the project as presented will have no
adverse impacts on the area. The required additional eight (8) parking spaces could be
accommodated within the existing perimeter of the park in the City's right -of way
where there is currently more than sufficient on street parking to meet the needs of the
park.
Based on these findings, the Planning Department is recommending approval of the
requested variance as presented.
