Hannon Issue 1: N. Miami Av.PedestrianUse Frontage 627.2.1. Intent. 1 1 This district is of special and substantial public interest given its proximity to Downtown Miami and the Omni Area, the Design District, Miami Beach, the Wynwood Neighborhood and to future proposed commuter transit facilities within the Florida East Coast Railway (FEC) Corridor. The intent of the district is to: (1) Promote the creation of a Miami midtown environment through intensive urban retail mixed -use development with a twenty-four hour activity pattern; and (2) Enhance the pedestrian environment and connectivit ofthe existing surrounding areas by extending the city street . rld through the district. To this end, the district promotes streetscapes and mixe-Xusatadings designed to provide pesestrians with lively, interesting, well -landscaped and highly usable public spaces with a maximum interrelationship with ground floor buildin uses. 1 The Midtown Miami West district regulations are intended to provide a method to allow for planning initiatives that achieve a unique or innovative development that is not otherwise provided for in the zoning ordinance. These planning initiatives may include, but are not limited to, Smart Growth as defined in Section 627. The standards and procedures of this district are intended to promote flexible design and permit planned diversification and integration of uses and structures, with limitations and regulations as deemed necessary to be consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan and to protect the public health, safety, and general welfare. Design standards supplement this ordinance and provide more detailed clarification. Concerning building uses and overall buildable area, mixed -use development is encouraged by providing greater floor area ratios and overall building height than that of single use buildings. Furthermore, additional height is provided for sites that abut significant open space and/or are designated as strategically located visual gate- ways as defined in Section 627. Yard and setback areas are minimal and are required to be developed as an integral part of the overall pedestrian streetscape. Ground floor build -to lines are provided in order to establish a continuous building frontage that enhances and provides spatial definition for the urban streetscape. Although no specific requirements are contained herein, it is further intended that buildings be designed utilizing environmentally sensitive methods, including, but not limited to, passive and active solar techniques, green - roofs, the utilization of environmentally sustainable materials and efficient mechanical systems.
