conformity with the governing regulations set forth in the City Code and land
development regulations. However, prior to the expiration, or not later than 90
calendar days after the expiration of such approval, an applicant may request
one initial extension of time for a period not to exceed three years by filing an
application for a temporary parking use. In granting the initial extension of time,
or considering an appeal from the planning director's decision regarding an
extension of time, the planning director or planning, zoning and appeals board,
as the case may be, shall consider, among other things, whether the applicant
has complied with all of the applicable requirements of these land development
regulations, and any conditions imposed by the planning, zoning and appeals
board, if any, during its period of operation.
After the first extension of time, and prior to expiration, or not later than 90
calendar days after the expiration of such approval, an applicant may request
from the planning director not more than two extensions of time for periods not to
exceed three years each. In considering such a request, the planning director
shall consider the same criteria applied in his or her review of the initial request
for approval of a temporary parking use.
At the end of all applicable extensions of time for a temporary parking lot, the lot
shall cease to be used for parking and the asphalt and rock base shall be
removed."
Section 6. It is the intention that the provisions of this Ordinance shall become and be
made a part of the Zoning Ordinance of the City of Miami, Florida, which provisions may be
renumbered or relettered and that the word "ordinance" may be changed to "section", "article",
or other appropriate word to accomplish such intention.
Section 7. If any section, part of a section, paragraph, clause, phrase, or word of this
Resolution is declared invalid, the remaining provisions of this Resolution shall not be affected.
Section 8. This Resolution shall become effective immediately upon adoption.
