PZ. 4 4545 Rez onin g- 428, 430, 448, 454 NE 38 St & 457 NE 37 St My family owns and resides at 499 NE 37th Street. The location of the lots on NE 37th Street has significant bearing on the value of their and and structures due to the existence of external obsolescence from the adjacent 1-195 highway traffic noise. NE 37th Street runs parallel to 1-195. In addition, the lots on NE 37th Street are in the path of major air traffic, according to the 2001 FDOT noise study report. The NE 37th Street/NE 38th Street enclave which is bordered to the west side of Biscayne Blvd, to the south side by 1-195 highway and to the east by Stearns Park is not a historic district. There is one single family home, 2 or 3 multi -families (ranging from 3-6 units), and the rest are apartment buildings. The single family home is at the southwest corner of NE 38th street, directly next to the on -ramp to 1-195 and facing Biscayne Blvd to the northwest. Because of these conditions, this house wilt never be viewed to be of the same value as some of the houses in Morningside or Bay Point, therefore and utilization at this moment is inappropriate; but simply accidental from a historic point of view. Not all homes are preservable. Some of the multi -family homes and apartments go back to the 1920s but everything changed in this enclave when the dissecting of Magnolia Park occurred with the construction of the 1-195 expressway and its exit/on ramps onto NE 38th Street. As a resident of NE 37th Street 1 would prefer to see more modern buildings to be built on NE 37th/NE 38th Street with better sound proofing, no windows on the south side and built in a manner to accommodate the new and current reality of this enclave which occurred after the residences on this street where built. The NE 37th/NE 38th Street enclave has unique problems and needs which demands that it should not be grouped as the same zoning district as Morningside or Bay Point. Increased height and more flexibility to construct commercial buildings should be allowed on these 2 streets NE 37th/NE 38th Street because of the unique problems and isolated/exclusive nature of this particular section. Without increased height this area wilt remain neglected. The area is a sore spot with no new investment or improvement since 1991. There are 3 empty lots which have sat empty since the 1980s. However, 1 would only support the upzoning of the lots on NE 37th/NE 38th Street if it is to be equally applied to all the lots on these two streets. THE UPZONING CANNOT BE PIECEMEAL. It would not only unfairly devalue the remaining lots if only certain lots are upzoned and the other lots are not upzoned, but the lower zoned lots would be at the mercy of the development. Therefore, 1 would like it to put on the record that if upzoning is allowed for the lots 428, 430, 448, 454 NE 38th Street and 443, 441 and 457 of NE 37th Street, the same upzoning should be conferred on the other lots on NE 37th/NE 38th Street. 1 would like to bring to your attention the Comprehensive Plan Amendment along the Miami River, which the Commission found it necessary to be adopted March 22, 2018 in a similar situation which supports my position that the upzoning should not be piecemeal but for the entire enclave and all the lots on NE 37th/NE 38th Streets should be upzoned together: ORDINANCE 13753.

With commercial, retail, and office uses comes many short in -and -out trips that could create a St & conflict with the high speed traffic exiting the 1-195 off -ramp onto NE 38 St. In addition, the traffic pattern 457 around the block does not provide the network flexibility required to increase development capacity for this NE area.

The potential for a completely commercial, retail, or office development would St not be compatible with the surrounding neighborhood.

The companion application seeks to change the Miami 21 Zoning designation 428, from T5-R (Urban Center - Restricted) to T6-8-0 (Urban Core - Open). I believe this request has been 430, objected to numerous times by members of Bay Point, and this agenda item has been deferred various 448, times, with little notice to the community and no outreach from the proposed developer. As noted by the 454 Planning Department's Staff Analysis, when Staff conducted a site visit to the properties during a weekday NE afternoon, Staff observed a traffic condition that is not conducive for the introduction of commercial uses to 38 the area. With commercial, retail, and office uses comes many short in -and -out trips that could create a St & conflict with the high speed traffic exiting the 1-195 off -ramp onto NE 38 St. In addition, the traffic pattern 457 around the block does not provide the network flexibility required to increase development capacity for this NE area. Furthermore, with multiple parks nearby, the area is welt suited for the residential character the 37 neighborhood already has. The potential for a completely commercial, retail, or office development would St not be compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. White I suspect the Planning Department's Staff visit to the area was in 2018, issues have not improved. Indeed, they have gotten worse. I strongly recommend that the Commissioners vote against PZ4.

Please try to find a resolution soon commissioners! Hi Albert - Thank you for the reply. If you recall, you met my partner Eric and I outside of Adela the other day when you were touring the area with your team, literally on the Bay and 64th! We noticed some immediate improvements and are very impressed. As I mentioned, I'd love to contribute to the evolution of this zone. A few things we are interested in pursuing municipal advocacy are: - grounding the electrical power lines - adding velocity impediments to the street; we have noticed drag racing upon 64th street everyday since we've moved in - landing site improvements: our friend is the president of Nirvana, and the neighbors and neighborhood residents would like to see the lot improved to "beach -like" standards - temporary use permit for the landing site: I have a potential investor interested in creating a community feature upon the waterfront to service the community, park goers, and MiMo residents - vegetation: we'd Like to trim some of the trees that fall upon city and - reforestation: we'd like to see banyan trees reforested to recapture the native landscape of the neighborhood - garbage: the lot needs immediate cleaning - disposal: the neighborhood would welcome more city trash and recycle receptacles throughout the streets - patrol; we've noticed a slew of late night loitering upon our corner, patrolling may help reduce this I believe this is our top line items in discussion as a neighborhood and within my sphere of real estate investors and municipal contacts. I would love to connect further to discuss and see if there may be synergy. Let me know when may work for you.
