Commission; and
WHEREAS, it has been noted that Section 7.1.1.4(d)(4) of the Zoning Ordinance of the
City of Miami, Florida, as amended ("Miami 21"), in part, is not compatible with Section 62-17(d)
of the Code of the City of Miami, Florida, as amended ("City Code"), insofar as it requires at
least seven (7) members of the Planning, Zoning and Appeals Board ("PZAB") to approve
certain actions or to recommend the approval of certain actions to the City Commission, as
applicable; and

to the City Commission while the voting requirements in Section 7.1.1.4(d) of Miami 21 call for
the concurring votes of at least seven (7) members of the PZAB; and

the voting requirement of Section 62-17(d) of the City Code was passed at a later time; and
