Change of Zoning Classification on above described site
from R-4 (Medium Density Multiple) to C-1 (Local Commercial).
Secretary filed proof of publication of Legal Notice of Hearing,
and administered oath to all persons testifying at this hearing.
PLANNING DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDATION: "DENIAL"
The subject property is appropriately zoned based upon
the existing land use and the character of the immediate
neighborhood. The R-4 zoning classification should be
maintained on the subject property for the protection of
the mixed one and two family residences which exist north
and west of the property. The site is currently being
improved for off-street parking facilities, with exception
of Lot 10, which has a residence located on it. Expansion
or increase of banking facilities should be confined to the
property zoned C-1.
Mr. Martinez: Those to speak on this Item, would you please
stand up to be sworn in. Will you state your name and address for
the Record, please.
Mr. Trantham: Mr. Chairman, my name is Tom Trantham,
I'm and attorney with the --
Mr. Martinez: Excuse me, I think Mr. Burns has a quesiton.
132
Mr. Burns: Mr. Harris, the same situation on this, as an
earlier one, is your opinion the same?
Mr. Turner: If there is no direct financial interest in this
project, there is no conflict.
Mr. Burns: Thank you, Mr. Turner.
Mr. Martinez: Okay, continue.
Mr. Trantham: My name is Tom Trantham, I'm an attorney with
the Law Firm of Mershon, Sawyer, Johnston, Dunwody, and Cole.
I represent Sun Bank of Riverside, formerly Riverside Bank,
which is the applicant in this case.
The Bank owns all of the block in question, it also has its
banking site immediately to the south on 12th Avenue. All of the block
is currently in use as a parking facility, and for drive-in tellers.
Riverside Bank commenced buying up a lot at a time, those several
parcels of land in that block, some twenty-five years ago. Today, the
Bank owns all of the property in that block, with the exception of
Lot 10, which it has under contract to purchase, and the owner has
filed a letter of consent to this application, for rezoning.
All of the lots, or the homes, the houses that were on Lots 7,
8, and 9, have been removed, and currently, we're waiting on the
closing on Lot 10, and in due course, that house will be removed.
I also would like to mention to you, that across the street to
the north, on N. W. 2nd Street, the Bank owns Lots 11, 12, 13, 16 and
17, and Lot 5. It - wait a minute, I take that back, I think we
don't own 15 and 16. At any rate, we own a substantial portion of
the lots there across the street. Yes, there's 16, 17 and 5 that
we have.
So, the Bank, actually surrounds by an ownership in one fashion
or another, all of the block to the north, and a substantial part to
the south.
I would like to mention to
recipient of the monthly award by
Ecology and Beautification, Mrs.
you, that in 1971 the Bank was the
the City of Miami Committee on
McGraner was present, and played
-40- March 12, 1973 Item 110

•
a part in the granting to the Bank of this award for the manner in
which it developed and maintained this parking lot. Only today,
we received at the Bank, the annual progress report of 1972 of the
committee, and we are happy that contained in there is a picture of
the award being given, with Mrs. McGraner prominent in the foreground.
I think you are entitled to know why we want to rezone those
four lots that are colored yellow up there, and are presently zoned
for residential use, and change the zoning to commercial.
First of all, it makes sense to have a whole block uniform in
zoning classification. Such as we would like for you to approve.
Now that the ownership is going to be unified, it seems only
logical that the zoning be unified.
Further, with actual reference to the use, once this is rezoned,
to C-1 as requested, it will be available for parking and it would
provide a substantial amount of parking that would not otherwise be
available for the people who wish to use the facilities of the Bank.
To maintain it as residential property, of course, would
deprive us of at least twenty feet, or fifteen feet of usage that we
would not otherwise have, on either side, both on Second Street and
on 13th Avenue.
I would like to call your attention to the fact that there are
some twenty-seven, at least, written waivers of objeciton on file in
connection with this application. And, I think Mr. Tully Dunlap, the
Chairman of the Board of the Bank, who has grown with the Bank, since
the day it opened, might add a few words by way of background and
history, to my comments.
Mr. Dunlap, would you, please?
Mr. Dunlap: Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen of the Board,
my name is Tully Dunlap, and I am Chairman of the Board of the Sun
Bank of Riverside. We've changed our name, but we haven't changed
our Bankers.
It has been my privilege to be associated with the Bank since
it opened in 1941. The latter part of 1940, we bought those three
lots to the south of Block 60, 61, I guess - the three - those three
lots were purchased the latter part of 1940.
We put our small bank building on the corner lot, on 12th
Avenue and First Street, and we paved the other two lots for parking.
Since the very inception of Riverside Bank, we have made it
our policy to provide adequate and attractive off-street parking,
for our customers. Over the years, we have been fortunate to grow,
and in 1945, we bought the two lots across the street from the Bank,
in the block that we are talking about now. And then, in 1954, we
bought wo more, and in 1955, we bought three more. So, over the years,
we have acquired the lots in this block that we are speaking about, and
demolished the houses, and provided parking as our demand grew.
We think that our request is a very reasonable one. We would
urge you, please, to vote in favor of our petition.
Thank you very much, for the chance to talk with you.
Mr. Martinez: Thank you, Mr. Dunlap.
Mr. Trantham: Our request, I think, is so simple, that more
comment or remarks at this time would be belaboring the point. I will
defer to the - you all, and if there are any questions, that you might
have, or would like to ask, we're available.
Mr. Martinez: All right, let me see, I don't think there is
anyone here, objecting. Is there anyone in the audience, objecting
to this item? None. We will close the public hearing, then, and
we will have discussion, and questions, from the Board.

Item #10
•
Mr. Burns?
Mr. Burns: The Staff has made the comment, that "Expansion or
increase of banking facilities should be confined to the property
zoned C-1.".
Are you planning on building any facilities on here?
Mr. Trantham: No, sir, we have no current plans at all. This
is just part of the overall program that we've been carrying on for
many, many years, of acquiring property needed for. off-street parking.
Mr. Burns: This would strictly be, then, for parking?
Mr. Trantham: That is our full intention.
Mr. Burns: Right. And you will be landscaping that, in
the same motif, as the other lots in the area?
Mr. Trantham: Absolutely.
Mr. Burns: Well, this might be a good opportunity, since
Mrs. McGraner is already here, to congratulate you on winning that
award for your landscaping of that off-street parking.
Frnakly, I don't understand the problem, if the whole block,
but for this corner is C-1, we all know what a terrible traffic jam
we have over there. You need more parking. If we don't give it to
you, we're going to have an adverse impact on the neighborhood, by
the traffic flow, and the congestion of the cars, I think it's best
that we intergrate this, and increase the traffic flow onto a land-
scaped, paved, parking lot. So, I would hope you would win another
award for your efforts.
Mr. Martinez: All right, any further questions, from any of
the Board Members, or discussion? None? All right, Mr. Alfonso, this
is in your district, sir.
Mr. Alfonso: Well, as far as I can in that map, they own the
whole block, and this change is not going to constitute any spot zoning
whatsoever. So, I am going to move for approval.
Mrs. McGraner: Second.
Mr. Martinez: It has been moved for approval by Mr. Alfonso,
and seconded by Mrs. McGraner. Discussion on the motion? None.
Call the roll, Mr. Simpson.
Mr. Simpson: The motion on Item #10 is to recommend.
One objection was received in the mail.
