ANALYSIS FOR
ALLEY CLOSURE
Request: Pursuant to Section 55-15 (c) of the Miami City Code, the Planning Department has
reviewed the proposed public right-of-way vacation and closure to determine whether it is in the
public interest, or whether the general public would benefit from the vacation of the right-of-way.
Project: Closing, vacating, abandoning and discontinuing for public use an alley
Location: NORTHEAST 27TH STREET ALLEY FROM BISCAYNE BOULEVARD TO
APPROXIMATELY 730 FEET EAST OF BISCAYNE BOULEVARD, MIAMI, FLORIDA
Net District: Wynwood / Edgewater
Folio #: N/A Square footage: N/A
Current Zoning Designation: NIA
FINDINGS AND COMMENTS:
1. The alley is substandard in width and access is limited on the easterly end. The closure
will reduce illegal activity and illegal dumping.
2. The alley is occasionally used by the adjacent property owners and utility companies. It
is not regularly used by the general public and due to its restricted width and access, not
generally used for emergency services.
3. There wilt be no adverse affect on the ability to provide emergency services. The
abutting properties are shallow in depth and are served by improved streets along their
frontage.
4. The alley is limited in width (15') and provides limited access and circulation for
pedestrians and vehicles. The proposed plat dedicates additional right of way along NE
27 Street that will improve access and circulation in the neighborhood.
5. The Plat and Street Committee members voted to recommend 6 in favor and 0 in denial
of this alley closure request.
Based on the above findings, the Planning and Zoning Department recommends
Approval of the request.
