Modification of zoned street
Width — NW 28 Street

ENCLOSURES: Location Map
The Public Works Department is recommending that the City Commission adopt an Ordinance
amending Chapter 54 of the Code of the City of Miami, Florida, entitled "Streets and Sidewalks"
by amending Section 54-190 entitled "Nonstandard Street Widths" to modify the zoned street
right of way width of NW 28 Street in the Wynwood neighborhood.
In February, 1912, the Northern Boulevard Tract subdivision (Plat Book 2, Page 29) was
recorded that dedicated the north portion, 25 feet, of NW 28 Street, a quarter section line
roadway, from NW 2 Avenue to NW 3 Avenue. Although the northern boundary of the Marion
Place subdivision (Plat Book 3, Page 57) recorded in September, 1913 abutted the same quarter
section line, that subdivision did not dedicate any of the south portion of NW 28 Street from NW
2 Avenue to NW 3 Avenue. The City of Miami Commission adopted Ordinance No. 1682 on
January 29, 1937 officially establishing the section line as the centerline of NW 28 Street and
designating a zoned right of way width of 70 feet from North Miami Avenue to the west city
limits, thereby, locating the base building line 35 feet north and 35 feet south of the centerline
(section line) of the right of way.
In the 1960's the State Highway Department assembled the right of way and constructed the I-95
expressway causing NW 28 Street to "dead end" at the expressway. NW 28 Street no longer
serves as a primary east/west connecting roadway through the Wynwood neighborhood. On
February 13, 1986, the City of Miami Commission adopted Ordinance No. 10077 reducing the
zoned width of NW 28 Street from North Miami Avenue to NW 2 Avenue from 70 feet to the
original 50 feet. The section of NW 28 Street from NW 2 Avenue to NW 3 Avenue has not been
constructed to the full 70 foot width and, at their September 28, 2015 meeting, the Board of the
Wynwood Business Improvement District adopted a Resolution supporting the reduction of the
zoned right of way width of this section of NW 28 Street from 70 feet to 50 feet. Based on these
findings, the Public Works Department has determined that a reduction in the zoned right of way
width of NW 28 Street from NW 2 Avenue to NW 3 Avenue from 70 feet to the City's standard
50 feet, 25 feet from the centerline to the base building line, is warranted.
A public hearing has been scheduled for the March 24, 2016 Commission meeting to consider
this base building line width modification. Please be prepared to present your comments
concerning these modifications to the zoned street width to the City Commission at this meeting.
