Approximately 3663 SW 17th Street
FILE NO: 46-00828zc
Pursuant to Article 4, Section 401 and Article 22 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 is comprised of one lot fronting SW 17th Street ( A complete
legal description is 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 the character of SW 17th Street is residential, specifically R-2
"Two -Family Residential".
• 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 requested change will represent an intrusion of commercial uses
into a low density residential neighborhood.
• It is found that the R-2 "Two -Family Residential" designation allows 18 residential
units per acre and the requested C-1 "Restricted Commercial" designation will allow
a maximum density of 150 residential units per acre.
Based on these findings, the Planning Department is recommending denial of the
application as presented.
