BACKGROUND:
The subject property had also split zoning under Z.O 11000, having the eastern portion
designated with R-2 "Two -Family Residential" and the western portion with C-1 "Restricted
Commercial"; the property was subsequently rezoned on April 2010 with the adoption of Miami
21 to T3-L "Urban Transect Zone- Limited" and T4-L "General Urban Center Transect Zone -
Limited" respectively.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
This rezoning of the eastern portion requires a Future Land Use Map (FLUM) amendment
from Duplex Residential to Low Density Restricted Commercial which is requested in the
companion item identified with the File ID #: 15-009741u.

The following is a review of the request pursuant to the rezoning criteria in Article 7, Section
7.1.2.8 (a)(3), (c)(1) & (f)(2) of Miami 21. The Background section of this report is hereby
incorporated into the analysis and its corresponding criteria by reference:
Criteria Except where the proposal for the rezoning of property involves an extension
of an existing Transect boundary, no rezoning of land shall be considered which
involves less than forty thousand (40,000) square feet of land area or two
hundred (200) feet of street Frontage on one (1) street.
Analysis: The request involves an extension to the north of the existing Transect
boundary (T4-O) located directly south to the subject parcel.
Finding: The request involves an extension of an existing Transect Zone, hence it is
compliance with the Miami 21 Code criteria for such request.
Criteria A rezoning may be made only to a lesser Transect Zone; within the same
Transect Zone to a greater or lesser intensity; or to the next higher Transect
Zone, or through a Special Area Plan, and in a manner which maintains the
File ID#: 15-00974zc
Page 3 of 7
City of Miami
Planning and Zoning Department
Division of Land Development
goals of the Miami 21 Code to preserve Neighborhoods and to provide
transitions in intensity and building heights.
Analysis: The subject property has two zoning classifications and the request is seeking
to unify the zoning classification for the entire property; the eastern portion is
classified T3-L "Sub -Urban Transect Zone - Limited" and the western portion
T4-L "General Urban Center Transect Zone - Limited". The requested rezoning
is to T4-O "General Urban Center Transect Zone - Open".
Even though the requested zoning change for the eastern portion from T3-L to
T4-O proposes a rezoning to the next higher Transect Zone, the new zoning
classification allows for more uses and higher intensity. Appropriate buffers to
protect the abutting single-family residential neighborhood to the northeast,
east and southeast must be considered. The density as limited by the zoning
classification will be increasing from 9 to 36 DU/acre.
The requested zoning change for the western portion, from T4-L to T4-O,
proposes a rezoning within the same Transect Zone to a greater intensity while
maintain the density in 36 DU/acre.
Finding: The request comply with the successional zone transition in density and
intensity which is consistent with the goals of the Miami 21 Code.

RE: 4201 NW 2nd Avenue, Miami, Florida
Rezoning and Comprehensive Plan Amendment
Dear Ms. Zamora:
On behalf of 4201 Design West, LLC (the "Applicant"), enclosed find applications for a
rezoning and companion future land use amendment for the parcel located at 4201 NW 2"
Avenue (the "Property"). The Property is identified by the Miami -Dade County Property Appraiser
as consisting of one folio (01-3124-020-0280), As set forth on the enclosed survey prepared by
John Ibarra & Associates, last updated June 4, 2015, the total land area is 17,273 square feet.
The existing zoning for the Property is presently split between T4-L at the western portion
with frontage on NW 2nd Ave and T3-L with frontage on NW 42' Street. The future land use
designations are similarly split between Restricted Commercial on the west and Duplex Residential
on the east. The Applicant is proposing to amend the future land use designation of the eastern
portion of the Property to Low Density Restricted Commercial and to rezone the entire Property to
T4-0 (the "Applications"),
The land use change and rezoning will serve to achieve consistent zoning on a unified
parcel under one ownership which is compatible with the Restricted Commercial future land use
designation and an extension of the T4-0 transect zone along NW 2nd Avenue to the south. In
addition, the changes will facilitate the adaptive use of the Property which is presently made
difficult by the existing zoning regulations and split zoning condition. Lastly, this change will help to
encourage economic development and activity along this stretch of NW 2nd Avenue, which today is
greatly underutilized.

I. Existing Conditions
The portion of the Property fronting NW 2nd Avenue, currently zoned T4-L, is presently
improved with a one-story building (a small portion is two stories) consisting of approximately
5,574 square feet constructed in 1946, and a small accessory surface parking lot. The eastern
portion of the Property, currently zoned T3-L, is yard area and contains no buildings or permanent
structures.
The abutting neighborhood to the east is zoned T3-L and consists of a mix of single family
and low scale (duplex, triplex) multi -family uses interspersed with vacant parcels.
The entirety of the NW 2nd Avenue corridor to the south down to NW 38th Street is zoned
T4-0. To the north, the corridor is zoned T4-L to NW 48th Street, From NW 48'h Street to NW 54th
Street, the zoning is T4-0.
As shown in the photographs included with this Application, the existing uses of the NW 21'd
Avenue corridor are generally one-story, dated structures containing neighborhood commercial
uses interspersed with vacant parcels and small churches, Most if not all of the existing
commercial structures were constructed prior to Miami 21 and are nonconforming to the T4-L
requirement that limits commercial and office uses to 50% of the building's floor area. Sidewalks
are narrow, street trees are sparse, and surface parking on the Primary Frontage is common.
Overall, this corridor appears to have been untouched by redevelopment that is taking place in
other mixed -use neighborhoods within the urban core of the City of Miami.
II. Application for Future Land Use Amendment
Section 62-8(c) of the City of Miami Code of Ordinances provides that amendments to the
future land use map shall be reviewed to ensure that "the land use, densities and intensities
proposed are compatible with and further the objectives, policies, land uses, and densities and
intensities in the comprehensive plan, provided further that the comprehensive plan shall be
construed broadly to accomplish its stated purposes and objectives,"
This proposed amendment is compatible with the objectives, policies, land uses and
densities and intensities in the City's MCNP, The primary goal set forth in the Future Land Use
Element, Goal LU-1 is to protect and enhance the quality of life and foster economic development.
Specifically, Policy LU-1.1.11 calls for a priority to be placed on urban infill. This stretch of the NW
2nd Avenue corridor is badly in need of economic development,
This proposed amendment also furthers Goal LU-3, which encourages urban
redevelopment in identified Urban Infill Areas, Objective LU-3-1, which calls for the City to promptly
review and act on petitions for land use plan amendments and rezoning of property in Urban Infill
Areas to facilitate redevelopment, and Policy LU-3.1.1, which call on the City to continue review of
existing zoning regulations to determine if they provide adequate flexibility to promote
redevelopment.
This proposed amendment would change only the future land use designation for the far
eastern portion of this Property, from Duplex Residential to Low Density Restricted Commercial;
;32822813;4}
July 17, 2015
Page 3
which would create an appropriate transition between the great intensity, density and variety of
residential and non-residential uses called for in Restricted Commercial, and the limited uses,
intensity and density of Duplex Residential, The Property has long been and is today owned as
one unified site (and one tax folio) by a single owner. The proposed amendment would allow for the
productive use of the eastern portion of the Property where today it has no practical use as a
single family home or duplex or one of the other handful of permitted uses.
III. Application for Rezoning: Analysis under Article 7.1.2.8. of Miami 21
As an initial observation, the western portion of the Property, currently zoned T4-L, and the
smaller eastern portion of the Property, currently zoned T3-L, should be consolidated to allow for
the adaptive use and future beneficial development of the Property, The Applicant is the sole
owner and purchased the entirety of the Property through a single transaction from the former
owner, The Property has been consolidated as one parcel since prior to Miami 21.
The proposed rezoning to T4-0 is a rational effort to allow for the productive use of the
Property and is consistent with the criteria set forth in Article 7.1,2.8 of Miami 21,
{a) Consistent with the City's MCNP,
The MCNP and the Future Land Use Map contained therein, reflects the City's vision, and
its goals, objectives and policies for directing long term planning and development within the City's
neighborhoods. Pursuant to Florida law, Chapter 163, Florida Statutes, the adoption of zoning
regulations and zoning changes shall be consistent with the local government's comprehensive
plan. Article 7.1.2.8.f.1(a) of Miami 21 specifically requires consideration of "whether the proposed
change will further the goals objectives and policies of the Comprehensive Plan; the Miami 21
Code; and other city regulations."
As set forth on the Future Land Use Map, the future land use designation of the Property is
split between Restricted Commercial on the west and Duplex Residential on the east. To the
south, the T4-0 zoned parcels are designated General Commercial.
Pursuant to the MCNP Correspondence Table - Zoning and Comprehensive Plan, the
intended Transect Zone to be associated with the Restricted Commercial and General Commercial
future land use categories is T6. Within the Future Land Use Element goals, objectives and
policies, Restricted Commercial allows for residential use at density of up to 150 units per acre as
well as a wide variety of commercial, office and related uses with intensity permitted at up to 11
floor to lot ratio ("FLR").
The designation of the Property and other parcels within the NW 2nd Avenue Corridor as
Restricted Commercial makes it clear that the NW 2nd Avenue Corridor was envisioned to support
higher intensity development than that for which it is zoned.
This transect zone is consistent with the Restricted Commercial future land use
designation, which would provide for a mix of uses, including hotel, residential and retail, and
provides underlying densities and intensities that are actually more permissive than the T4-0
{32822813,4}
July 17, 2015
Page 4
Transect Zone and would even support a T6-8 zoning. Therefore, the proposed zoning of T4-0 is
more compatible with the future land use designation than is the existing zoning of T4-L,
The Application will require a change in future land use designation for only that eastern
portion that is presently designated Duplex Residential. This portion of land area is proposed to be
changed to Low Density Restricted Commercial future land use to be consistent with the proposed
T4-0 zoning. This future land use designation is significantly less intense than the existing future
land use designation on the western portion.
lb) Consistent with Successional Zoning
Second, the proposed rezoning is consistent with the successional zoning theory of Miami
21. As set forth in Section 7.1.2.8.a, "the City's growth and evolution over time will inevitably
require changes to the boundaries of certain Transect Zones, These changes shall occur
successionally, in which the zoning change may be made only to a lesser Transect Zone; within the
same Transect Zone to a greater or lesser intensity; or to the next higher Transect Zone, or
through a Special Area Plan". Further as set forth in 7.1.2.8.c,1, the technical criteria for rezoning (a
minimum of 40,000 square feet of land area or 200 feet of street frontage) are met if the rezoning is
an extension of an existing transect zone,
The Applicant proposes to extend the existing boundary of T4-0 from the south to
encompass the Property, which is consistent with both the successional zoning criteria as well as
the technical criteria of Miami 21, Article 7, and makes the zoning of the bulk of the Property more
compatible with the Restricted Commercial future land use designation for the Property.
(c) Changed Market Conditions as Justification for Proposed Change
Third, the proposed rezoning will create opportunities for more neighborhood -oriented
commercial uses and contribute to the economic development of the NW 2nd Avenue corridor
without having a negative impact on the surrounding neighborhoods. As set forth in Section
7.1.2.8.f.1(b) of Miami 21, "all amendments should be evaluated to determine the need and
justification for the proposed change, including changed or changing conditions that make the
passage of the proposed change necessary."
Great potential for reuse, redevelopment and revitalization of this corridor exists; however,
the restrictions on establishment size and limitations on commercial floor area imposed by the T4-L
transect regulations act as a barrier to entry and are stifling neighborhood oriented businesses
from locating along NW 2nd Avenue. Redevelopment of the corridor would be highly beneficial to
the residents of the neighborhoods on either side of NW 2nd Avenue, which presently lack basic
commercial uses- such as cafes, dry cleaners, and bank - and a high -quality pedestrian realm,
both of which are critical components of sustainable communities.
IV. Sensitivity to Neighborhood
Despite the fact that the Property is located within an underutilized commercial corridor, the
Applicant is cognizant and sensitive to the fact that there are many residential properties in the
immediate vicinity of the Property. The overall intensity of the development capacity on the west
328228134)
July 17, 2015
Page 5
side of the Property does not change under the proposed rezoning from T4-L to T4-0. There is a
limited increase on the eastern portion of the Property, with the ability to go only up to 3 stories
and 40 feet in height.
The Applicant has initiated a dialogue regarding the rezoning and land use change with
abutting neighbors and has received support. The Applicant believes that there is a common
interest in attracting more neighborhood -oriented commercial establishments all along the corridor
and invigorating this underutilized stretch of NW 2nd Avenue for residents and all stakeholders alike.
Further outreach to the neighborhood will be conducted prior to the Applications being presented
to PZAB,
V. Conclusion
While in the long term it would appear that the NW 2nd Avenue could support even higher
intensity commercial development, the Applicant is requesting a modest amendment to the Future
Land Use Map and to the Zoning Atlas to (1) consolidate the zoning for the single parcel Property
consistent with the properties to the south and compatible with the existing future land use
designation; (2) allow for adaptive use of the Property for commercial uses; and (3) help to
encourage economic development and activity along this stretch of NW 2nd Avenue, which today is
greatly underutilized and underserving the surrounding neighborhoods.
We Kook forward to your support of this Application and presenting to the Planning Zoning
and Appeals Board and eventually the City Commission for its approval.
