Sec. 54-4.1 Public Alleys (b)
PZAB File ID No. 1668
Page 2 of 9
B. MIAMI COMPREHENSIVE NEIGHBORHOOD PLAN:
The properties proposed for the rezone from T6-24A-O to T624-B-O have a Future Land Use Map
(FLUM) designation of "General Commercial". Pursuant to the "Correspondence Table -Zoning and
Comprehensive Plan"2 provided by the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan, the existing FLUM
is compatible with the current and proposed zoning designation; therefore, a FLUM amendment is
not required as part of this rezoning request.
The subject properties are located within the Omni Residential Density Increase Area, which allows
up to 500 residential units per acre.
The subject properties also falls within the Urban Central Business District (UCBD), which targets the
single urban core area in the City of Miami. The UCBD is proposed to provide mass transit service,
becoming in the appropriate environment to house high -density and multi -use developments.
C. BACKGROUND AND PROPOSAL:
The subject properties are located in an area designated T6-24A-O, located, just south to the City
of Miami Cemetery and
north of 395 Expressway,
and flanked to the east
with an area designated
T6-36B-O, and to the west
with portions of D-1 and
D-2 Transect Zones.
The Transect Zone
designations in the area
provides for a transition
in FLR and height
decreasing to the west as
it is shown in Table No. 2:

As a result, it is possible to conclude that, for the scenario of a residential development, the requested
T6-24B-O will increase the development capacity of the subject property by 200-percent more
PZAB File ID No. 1668
Page 4 of 9
residential units by right, without providing any Public Benefit. This scenario will double the impact to
the streets, roads, all type of utilities, school and health service and to the immediate neighborhood
and surrounding areas, creating a precedent for the whole area without a traffic study and other
urbanistic considerations.
It is foreseeable that this impact will have also repercussions on the historic designated properties
located close to the subject property, as well as other properties that may be designated in the future.
Illustration 3: Historic designated properties in the vicinity
It is necessary to highlight that some of the projects within the vicinity used as reference in the
applicant's Letter of Intent (LOI) to support the request, were approved under the previous 11000
Zoning Ordinance, the former zoning ordinance of the City of Miami. Other developments used to
support the request are located within a T6-36B-O Transect Zone, and for that reason they were not
considered in this staff report.
D. ANALYSIS:
This application requests the rezoning of the properties generally located at 1336, 1348, and 1366
NE 1 Av.; 50 and 58 NE 14 Street; and 1335 NE Miami Court, Miami, Florida from T6-24A-O (Urban
Core Transect Zone — A -Open) to T6-24B-O (Urban Core Transect Zone - B - Open).
This request is made as consequence of the approval on July 2016, of the rezoning to T6-24B-O of
the abutting properties to the north. Even though the impact of the rezoning was not reduced, it was
proffered with a Declaration of Restrictive Covenants to provide for 96 Work -Force residential units.
For the subject rezoning request, there is no mitigation nor Public Benefit proposed.

The following is a review of the request pursuant to the rezoning criteria in Article 7, Section 7.1.2.8
(a), (a)(3), (c)(1) & (f)(2) of Miami 21, as well as to the additional pertinent criteria derived from the
letter of intent. The background section of this report is hereby incorporated into the analysis and its
corresponding criteria by reference:
Criteria 1
Sec.7.1.2.8 (c) (1) "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 of The request is for the rezoning of six properties of which the aggregated
Criteria 1 area involves more than forty thousand (40,000) square feet of land area
(See Table 1 above).
PZAB File ID No. 1668
Page 6 of 9
This request can also be considered as an extension of an existing Transect
Zone. Abutting properties to the north where rezoned to T6-24B-O pursuant
to enactment No. 13619, of July 29, 2016, and this request is the
consequent domino effect of an intrusion of density an intensity taking place
in the area.
Finding 1 The request complies with requirement for rezoning as set forth in Miami 21
Code, Sec. 7.1.2.8 (c) (1).
Criteria 2
Sec.7.1.2.8 (f)(2) For rezoning: A change may be made only to the next
intensity Transect Zone or by a Special Area Plan, and in a manner which
maintains the goals of this Miami 21 Code to preserve Neighborhoods and
to provide transitions in intensity and Building Height.
Analysis of The rezoning, as requested, is indicated as successional by Miami 21 Code.
Criteria 2
Finding 2 The rezoning, as requested, matches with the successional table for
rezoning set forth in Miami 21 Code, Sec. 7.1.2.8 (a)(2), and consequently
comply with Sec.7.1.2.8 (f) (2).
Criteria 3 Are the proposed changes related to adjacent and nearby districts, and
within the scale and needs of the neighborhood?
Analysis of This request is made as consequence of an approval on July 2016, of the
Criteria 3 rezoning to T6-24B-O of the abutting properties to the north. Although the
impact of the rezoning was not reduced, it was proffered with a Declaration
of Restrictive Covenants providing for 96 Work -Force residential units.
For this rezoning request there are no mitigation proposed.
Finding 3 The requested rezoning, represents an intrusion of higher density an
intensity in the area, entailing significant impact to the "Level of Services" in
the area. No proposals for mitigation of the possible adverse effects has
been provided. Staff deems this rezoning request as inappropriate and
foresees severe impact to the area by maxing out the density and doubling
the development capacity provided by the current Transect Zone
classification of T6-24A-O.
Criteria 4
Pursuant to the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan Goals,
Objectives and Policies, October 2015, the subject properties are:
PZAB File ID No. 1668
Page 7 of 9
• Designated "General Commercial" Future Land Use Map (FLUM)
classification as well as other overlays that allows for highest density
• Located within the Omni Residential Density Increase Area, which
allows up to 500 residential units per acre
• Located within the Urban Central Business District (UCBD), which
identifies the single urban core area within the City of Miami and is
proposed to contain mass transit service, and consequently provide for
the appropriate environment to house high -density multi -use
developments.
• Located within the Omni CRA
Analysis of The FLUM classification assigned to the subject properties provide for
Criteria 4 general Uses and high Density that are further regulated by the
development capacity provided by the Transect Zone classification
assigned by the Miami 21 Code.
Finding 4
Criteria 5
The rezoning request does not provide detailed analysis nor traffic study
that provides proof that the immediate surrounding area can tolerate
doubling development capacity as well as the number of residential units.
"General Commercial" FLUM classification is the broad regulation assigned
by the MCNP and fits and can be regulated by the following Transect Zones
T6-8 (L & 0), T6-12 (L & 0), T24 (L & 0), T6-36 (L & 0), and T6-48 (L &
0).
As required by the Miami 21 Code, Sec. 3.12.1. Design Guidelines, the
vision provided by the "OMNI CRA Streetscapes: Performing Arts & Media
Entertainment District" has to be reflected in the design of the buildings
within the OMNI CRA area, regardless the limitations imposed by the
Transect Zone assigned.
The analysis provided in the application as part of such ambitious request,
should provide evidence of the capacity of the area to absorb the proposed
impact, including but not limited to analysis of Level of Services (LOS) for
the utilities, school, and Traffic Study to observe the proposed impact with
this request.
Given the Applicant represents the three blocks changing in the area
(Illustration 4), the analysis should include the impact provided by the
rezoning of all three blocks to the whole area and to the Increment III of the
Downtown DRI area.
Being located within a Residential Density Increase Area is not a
justification for the rezoning request to higher density.
The proposed change maintains the same or similar population density
pattern and thereby does not increase or overtax the load on public
facilities such as schools, utilities, streets, etc.
PZAB File ID No. 1668
Page 8 of 9
Analysis of Even though the request does not require for a FLUM amendment, the
Criteria 5 rezoning entails significant increase in the number of units allowed and
therefore bad on public facilities such as schools, utilities, streets, etc.
Finding 5 The existing T6-24A-O district boundaries where the subject properties are
located does not show evidences of been illogically drawn in relation to
existing conditions on the property proposed for change.
The applicant needs to justify the request, and not only propose the
mechanism to make it happen. The impact of the proposed rezoning to the
immediate neighborhood and surrounding areas needs to be assessed in
depth to mitigate any possible adverse effect.
Criteria 6
It is difficult to find other adequate sites in the surrounding area for the
proposed use in districts already permitting such use.
Analysis of The subject properties are buildable. Staff in unaware of any hardship or
Criteria 6 condition that prevent them to be designed and built complying with Miami
21 Code,
Finding 6 Not granting the rezoning does not entail any limitation to the property
owner.
E. CONCLUSION:
The analysis provided as part of the application does not justify the rezoning as requested, The
rezoning within the Urban Core Transect Zone from T6-24A-O to T6-24B-O is an intrusion of density
and intensity that entails significant impact to the immediate neighborhood and surrounding areas.
F. RECOMMENDATION:
Pursuant to Miami 21 Code, Article 7, Section 7.1.2.8 of Ordinance 13114, as amended and the
aforementioned findings, the Department of Planning and Zoning recommends Denial of the rezoning
requested of the properties generally located at: 1336, 1348, and 1366 NE 1 Av.; 50 and 58 NE 14
Street; and 1335 NE Miami Court, from T6-24A-O to T6-24B-O.
