(a) "DENIAL" The land use of the. subject area is residentially oriented to the west and south of the subject property and, the requested C-1 zoning classification would not afford the necessary protection to the residential area, and would create a crazy -quilt pattern of zoning. The existing zoning patterns in the subject area would indicate that consideration should be given to zoning the subject property to an R-C,classification. Such a consideration should', include all of the area existing northeasterly-ofthe Wagner Creek alignment. If the comprehensive rezoning was accommodated in this manner this would afford existing and future residential develop- ment sufficient protection from undue commercial encroach- ment. 4. (b),"DENIAL" Predicated upon the above recommendation of the change of zoning the "Conditional Use" should not be granted until the zoning request is modified. The plans sub- mitted for drive-in tellers and expansion' of the bank facilities' is considerably improved over the previous submissions, however, additional consideration must be given to the conflict with residential traffic that would be created by the western exits on N. W, 19th Terrace, to the provision of additional landscaped buffering along the western property line that abuts existing residential development and to the preservation of the trees presently existing on the site, 4. (c) "APPROVAL" TWC"elcsure-Qf-these alleys will perm3.t more efficient utilization of the sites. The Plat and Street Committee has recommended this item. Rev, Wright; A11 of those who are here to testify in this item, will you stand to be sworn, please, Will you state your name. and address for the Record, please, -14- DsQgmber 6, 1971 Item #4 Mr. Trentham! Mr, Chairman, RO erend Wright., my tithe it Tom Trantham, 1 ' m a lawyer with the law f ifm of M+ rehen, gawyer, ahnston, 6unwe dy and Coles 1 repre'sent Midtown Dank of Miami, the applicant, l would like to start out by informing some of the new members here, and recalling baek for the benefit ;of the oldtimers, several months ago, we came here with an applicat enfor some rezoning.' to allow us to; build some additional drive-in facilities, on the then 02.1 existing property of Midtown Dank In your wisdom, and under the conditions then prevailing, you had under consideration the preparation of a new ordinance regu- lating the use of property for bank drive-in facilities. After a discussion with you, we deferred our application, at that time, and while you were preparing your drive-in ordinance, we were able to acquire at the bank, some additional property. We now come back to you with an application, which is, in effect, a package application, asking for you to rezone and make in one uniform class of toning all of our property. We want it replatted, want to vacate some alleys, establish easements in different ways,so that we may be in a position to erect at some time in the future, a larger, more gracious, and serviceable bank building itself, on the main parcel. And also, as soon as possible, to move forward with the construction of additional drive-in facilities, which will be located on the what I shall refer to - as "our new property" 1 have furnished each ofyou with a little booklet, and ifyou would open your book, you'll find on the first page, a sketch of the plat there, for the area, and colored in orange, is the old property. The green .to the south of it, is the new property. It's on that green property that we want to establish our drive-in facilities. I have here, and will exhibit to you now, an architect's rendering of the proposed facility. This colored in red there, at this end, is the existing bank facility. Thisis as more or less, as currently landscaped here as shown. I say, more or less, because it isn't quite as extensive, but we do have a couple or more, magnificant old oak trees, that we've saved in our parking lot immediately to the west of the existing facility, and along the sidewalk there. Now,to the south, here, as.I point, is the proposed new drive-in facility. Thereare two banks of drive-in, or two sets of drive-in units, with the entranceway down here, on this street, coming in off of:14th Avenue, up the side street, 19th Street, turning right into this area, and making a loop back, into either of these drive-in facilities.' We have made a careful study of the drive-in facilities of all the other banks in this area, and in fact, throughout the state,and we confidently tell you, that there's no bank in the State of Florida that has drive-in facilities that will accommodate cars comparable to this. This is the best there is, and the best that there will be for many, many, years to come. The reason it is, because that's a lot of land tobe devoted to a drive-in facility, and provides more than ample, and gracious planning of space for backups. We can have twenty, thirty, forty, fifty cars, over a period of time, backed up, , inside of the facility, if it's neces- sary. We don't really expect to ever have that many, or that situation, 41 but we are prepared for it, if, as, and when the circumstance should ever arise. If you will turn to the second page in your book, yeu'11 see. in black and white, s diagram similar to this, This diagram, that is inthe little booklet, is in exact accord- ance with the ,application that we have presented. This architect's rendering is very slightly different, primarily, in that the exit in the northern parcel of the property, has been moved -15- December -6, 1971 Item 414 11111 Ell tb the east* you'll notice right here, as l indicate with ny finger,. onthe sketdh, there is an emits On the sketch in your booklet, this. exit is somewhat to the west, or closer to the end of the propertys This has :begin roved easterly, at the recommendation, and for the purpose of complying with the suggedtions of your own staff* 1 think we've worked this out, in accordance with them: Also, the greenery around the dr,ives,in area hat been at►pplement.ed on our architect's rendering, and will be in accordance with the render - SO ing, and that, too, is at the suggestion of your staff, We are prepared to, and will provide a let of nice greenery. In confection with this, I'd like to remind you, or inform you, really, that Midtown sankof Miami it operated by, owned by, substan- tially the same group of stockholders and officers, and is an affiliate of Riverside Bank. The reason I bring that up, .is because I wanted to tell you that the City of Miami Beautification Committee, very recently, on June 12, 1970 gave the Award of the Month to Riverside Bank for the Banks' parking area, right to the north of Riverside Bank Building. Y have a picture here, it is not in color, but those of you who are familiar with our Bank, an mighty area, I think you'll agree with me, that ,Riverside Bank g y nice, pretty parking lot, and drive-in facility. And we'll have equal, or better, at Midtown. Mrs. McGraner: Mr. Chairman? Rev. Wright: Yes, Mrs. McGraner. Mrs. McGraner: I would like to say something. Because, I was very proud, at the Beautification Committee, when Riverside Bank was designated and being very beautiful in their beautification. 4 And I had the pleasure of presenting that Award. So, I just didn't want that to slip by. Mr. Trantham: All right, well, thank you, Mrs. McGraner. Rev. Wright: It seems as though' you have a' friend, Mr. Trantham. ' Mr. Trantham: Friends in high places, and middle places, and low places, everywhere, are, mighty good to have in all cases, Reverend Wright. Rev. Wright: Go right ahead with your rendition. Have you finished? ;t Mr. Trantham: Well, - there are --we have asked that the property be rezoned. As it now exists, the northly property, the old Bank property, is zoned for C-4.. We thought it would be more appropriate to rezone all of it down to one level use of C-1. Now, of course, at the same time, we are asking you to change. the parking lot area from a 'residential classification that it now suffers from, into a.C-1, and make it uniform. Admittedly, there is some disagreement between our views, and your staff recommendations, but I think that from the overall stand- point, I like to believe that our views are a little better than that. Now, we've worked out all of the other problems that I know of, that we've had with the staff, and we think we can live with their recommendations, and they've indicated they could just about live with ours. But we'd like for you, if , you Would, to . accept our application' and recommendation for a constant zoning of this in a C-1 classification. For one reason, in ,articular, if you notice here, the red area on our sketch, the architect's rendering, that's the existing Bank -16- December 6, 1971 Item #4 building, A change in zoning upwards from Cal would interfere with : the eetbalk requirements, so that we could not. continue south- erly, on this, right along here, with that hank tua1ding, Weld have to setbaek and make a zigzag, 5aggedy, type of strteture, and it really would not fit in well, and it would be tremendousi empeneive to try to adapt the existing building into a jagged, jigsaw, type of construction, which would be required, if we were saddled with the sethack require- ments of an R_d, or swathing of that nature, At this time, if it p:.ease the Chairman, I would like to ask all of th : Director§ and Officers of cur Banking Croup, who are inter- eaten here in support of this, and any other friends we might have in the group, to please stand and be recognized. I won't Bali Hades, but (Approximately twenty to thirty pereons stood to be recognized.) Rev. Wright: My goodness. okay, Mr. Trantham. Mr. Trantham: I might also add, that Iam not aware of any, objections by any of the adjacent property owners. We have filed some twelve or fourteen consents and waivers, and particularly, one of our _ pa ,i.the west of our site. important and substantial neighbors, is here, the owner and operator of the Creek. Club Apartments, which is 'a little to He's here, and would like to say a few words, if you would indulge us. Thank your Rev. Wright: With pleasure. Thank you very much, Mr. Trantham, thank you for your presentation. Mr. Sorkin: My name is Reuben Sorkin. I'm the owner of the Creek Club Apartments, which is a large building having eighty-five units, immediately adjacent to the property in question. We are verymuch in favor of the Bank's petition. The present existing buildings there are very old, and run down, need painting, and are overgrown with shrubs and weeds. As the former owners of that owned the property, merely kept it for land evaluation We are anticipating that the Bank coming into the area will not modernize it, and upgrade it. Which will affect our. property. As a rule, when a bank moves into an area, the property adjacent to it is. enhanced in appearance. Also, at the present time, on 14th.Avenue, there is very little traffic. And we feel that`the parking and drive-in facilities which the Bank will provide, will not increase the traffic congestion. So, the other owners, and myself, are very much in favor of. the Bank's petition. Thank you. Rev. Wright: Thank you, very much, Mr. Sorkin, you have deep interest. Now, Mr. Trantham, if you have further words, you may do so at this time. Mr. Trantham; No, sir, Reverend, I don't have anything further to offer at this time. 1 am ready to answer questions, or enter' into any discussion anyone wants. Rev. Wright; Is there anyone here in objection to this item? Is there anyone else hereto speak to the item? If not, now we will: close the, public hearing, and have discussion among the Board Members. Mrs, Callahan? Mrs. Callahan; Are we going to consider these in their order, please? Rev, Wright; Yes, .Mrs., Callahan; Thank your ;Mr. Kalil; Mr, Chairman, this being in my area, and being that these people have been before this Board, and have met with our planning. -17 December 6, 1971 item #4 • Staff, They've been before the Board, f think, fits times already,, within One year, We are creating a very, much unneeded hardship upon them, which 1 don't think is necessary. The hank is a very clean operation, I don't know if ail of the Members on our Board have gone by that area, but you must have in the past yearn, gone by NS W. 26th Street, in that section, Adjoining, on the other side of the street, of the Avenue, there, l6th Avenue, is - or loth Avenue, rather, is a junk yard that's an ralo eyesore to the City, Up and down the street there are warehouses, used lumber places, used fixtures places, used furniture places, N.W, 2Oth Street is one of the worst looking streets to drive down. The Bank has put up a beautiful building. it has needed this expansion into vacant territory, although there are some homes `on'there that are very rundown. I think there's about five or six of them there. These would be torn down, to build the new expansion for the drive-in tellers. Now, our Planning Staff said, and we have given them the chance, almost six months ago, for a study on drive-in tellers. Not only for this Bank, but other banks, and banks in the future. Now, after the study is completed, we still are getting a denial from our Planning Staff, to allow them to proceed. Which is almost within their grasp of our Planning Staff, of thislayout,: with the exception that they do notwant any traffic to go out on l9th Terrace, which is a dead-end. There is no flow of traffic on that street, and I cannot see why our Planning Staff cannot, approve this, and go along with the Board in seeing that we can help beautify this area. Now, south of this area is a parking lot for the Veteran's Hospital. And the other part is the Tropical Gardens. Now, there are nohomes that are going, to be built in this area, I don't think, for many, many, years to come. Yet, our Planning Staff says they want to keep it as a residential area, and it cannot be a residential area, because the complex that is in there of the Ludman Hospital, the VA Hospital, and the parking lots that they have, you'll never be able. to be developedinto anything else. Therefore, I see no reason why we, as a Board, cannot approve this as it is put before us, tonight. I would like to put into motion for approval. Mr. Deans Are we going to discuss it? Mr. Kalil: Or, do you still want to discuss it. Rev. Wright: All right, thank you, very much, Mr. Kalil. All right, Mr. Dean? Mr. Dean: I would like to hear from Mr. Whipple on his recommendation, please. Mr. Whipple: Mr. Chairman, and Members of the Board. If I may start from the bottom and work forward inorder to perhaps simplify and clarify our position on this. We do not object to any of the closures of alleys that they submit on � their Tentative Plat which is Part 4, "c", of this applica- tion. 6 Now, we believe this is necessary for the best utilization of the site, for a very good development plan, that is submitted before you. Lot me state at this point, and as Mr, Kalil has alluded to, these people have begin before this Ward in the past with a plan that did not encompass but about two-thirds of the area they have before you, tonight, 1 think, perhaps, part of our objection at that time, was the fact that wedid not feel that the site that they submitted to us, and this Board, was sufficient to accommodate the business, and the activity, that they foresaw, and which we could foresee, related to bank activity and teller. 10- December 4, 1971 fta= #4 Thespian that they have gubmitttd before this board tonight, which we are presently reviewing, we feel is muck improved over what. they submitted to: US and this body ,in the past, And basically, wo are in accord with this plan with the exception of one item, that b@inq the question of toning. Lot me move upward, then, to Item 44, lib" , We have met with the applicant at a very late date As a Matter of fact, a date that was after the time we fade this reeom- OFmenration, and we told then what our concern was, with the "Conditional Use" approval, on part 4,.ri1:01 that being the protection of the resi- dential - existing residential development, to the west of the lower yellow square, which you see before you. And they have submitted to you, tonight, a much improved land- , seape plan, a plan that l believe indicates trees and landscaping every.twenty-five feet, rather than the fifty feet, that the Ordinance requires, and we find no problem with this. As a matter of fact, we encourage it,_we accept this, on the condition that the zoning of this lower site is R-C. This brings us to the part "a", which concerns the zoning of the total site, a request from C-4 and R-3, to C-1. We respectfully sub- mit that the lower portion, I believe the applicants agree, should be R-C.The question is, what should theR-3 portion below the C-4 be? The entire area, majority of the area, except for the 20th Street frontage, is residential. You have due west, or the lower left-hand portion of Lot 1, there presently exists a multi -family residential structure,right adjacent to the subject property. Also, on the green portion in Block 2, to the left of the yellow portion, there exists a multi -family residential structure. The block to the south, which is presently zoned R-5, is vacant, but it is, by its classification, intended to be residential. So, ourcontention is, at this point, number one, that the portions of their application that are adjacent to the existing resi- dential uses, and future residential uses, should be R-C, compatible with the residential, by virtue of setbacks, and their restriction of uses. Likewise, we suggest that the entire area needs consideration for an R-C application. And I' am speaking of all of the area that is sort of northeasterly of Wagner Creek. We think this is a must. We think it is a: proper application in a comprehensive sense, that all of, this area northeasterly of Wagner Creek, including the subject property, on up to the commercial zoning existing along 20th Street, which, inci- dentally, is across s the street from an industrial classification, should bezoned to a residential classification. Preserving the character, and with the restrictions and the plans that the applicant has submitted, we believe will be compatible. The only question is the future use which the applicants might put to the orange structure thatexists on the site plan before you. The orange structure; is "a future use", and we submit that that use could be under, the restriction of an R-C classification, just as well as a,C-1'classification, with the consideration of additional setbacks, and the restriction on the use. We submit that thefrontage, being zoned commercial, either c-1.or C-4, at the discretion of this Board,tonight, could accommodate all retail or commercial activities that they seek to provide as an adjunct to the Bank activities on this site. So, in essence, we disapprove, or we recommend denial of the zoning as petitioned, but we do not object to the use, as such, with the proper zoning classification of R=C on those portions which 1 set before you tonight, Rev. Wright; Mr, Trantham? f F AEI Mr. " rartthar: May 1 f recagnite that your heari g has )*en 'elated, and .1 appreciate .your indulgence, 5ut, perhaps there has a l :ttle lack of understanding on my part of all of ter. Whipple ' t , objections Al to the oning, and in turn, perhaps, i didn't make my position quite a6 Clear to the board. Let Me say this,,.that 1 recogni2e some Merit in what he says, t don't agree with. him a. hundred percent, out we oouid live with a: compromi2e there, if youwould go-ahead and give us C=1 on the northern portion, ati being indicated now, and -that itt}mediately to the east' of it, from where your pencil is, that entire yellow - keep that all C-1. And, then, the lower portion, down below, which is where the drive-in facility is, your - would be perfectly our �t � classification acceptable, and we can live with that quite easily. gut 1 pointed out that we do need the advantage of the setback requirements, in C-1, as opposed.to the burden that the R-C would put on us for future eXpaneion along 14th - on the 14th Avenue side of our Bank. Rev. Wright: Mr. Whipple, what do you say to that? Mr. Whipple: Ho has explained it correctly. hut, there is one item that, if I may, in rebuttal to your - not rebuttal, but as a comment to your remarks. We are talking about a commercial classi- fication.; Aside from the basic restrictions of commercial zoning, which by the applicant they do not intend to do, but,: the.C-1 classi- fication i portionhavej -foot setback cation would allow the northern to - ust a lb along 19th Terrace, and right across the street from the existing. apartment that exists on the south side of 19th Terrace. Now,thatis our concern here. We feel there is enough liberali- nation existing along the 20th Street frontage, properly oriented to a commercial or industrial classification, that it does not have to be oriented to the existing residential use, or the residential.classifi- cation on the south side of 19th Terrace. Now, I don'tmean to argue this, but I did want to point that out to the Board. We are talking about C-1 - no restrictions. The northern site has no restrictions on it, whatsoever. It is not the subject of "Conditional Use", or variance by this hearing. Only the southern site is, by virtue of the acceptance of the R-C classification, and the "Conditional Use" of teller facilities. But, once this property is zoned C-1, assuming they meet., all of the other regulations, the only restrictions with the effect upon the 19th Terrace properties, would be,the '10-foot minimal setback in the C-1, or, C-4 - C-1 classification, with no other protection to the residential property. Mr. Trantham: All I can say is, I have to stand by what I said, and remind you all, again, that in many things you have to have a little faith in people, and who they are, and I remind you that we're askingyou to more restrictively zone that C-4 property, which we have, upwards to C-1. Rev. Wright: Mr. Silverman? Mr. Silverman Mr. Trantham, let me ask you one question. Does the Bank own all of this property, or is the sank leasing it? Mr. Trentham: Mr. Silverman; Mr, Trantha; We own absolutely every bit of it. In fee, all of it. Yes, sir. Mr. Silverman; 1, personally, have no objection to the appli- cation, as amended just now. l don't see any reason why it shouldn't be granted Mr. Kalil; Mr, Chairman? Under the R•C zoning, are they. allowed, with the drive-in teller windows? Mr, ,Simpson; yes, .sir. Mr, RANI: Th€y Are allowed that under the 11-0 Mr, Simpson: With the approval of the "donztitional Use" in the "b" portion, yes, sir. Mr. kalif: Yes. Now, instead of jumping around with spot mdning) which we are trying to stayaway from, instead of going to C-1,'whieh doesn't exist in that area, anywhere. C�4 comes down to 19th Terrace, in the adjoining block. Mr. Simpson: No, No, sir, it does not. Mr. Kalil: 1 am talking about over by the fiver, by the Canal. The other way, west. That's west: of it. Mr. Simpson: That is where the junk yard is, 1 think. M. Kalil: That's right. Mr. Silverman: Now, west. Mr. Kalif That's it. why can't we just drop for that 125 feet or so, drop that down on the same level to l5th Terrace, and keep it C-47 Mr, Simpson: The application would not be properly before this Board. The advertised hearing is for the R-3 to go to a C=1. This Board cannot grant anything more liberal than a C-1. Actually, the C-4 is much more liberal than the C-1, Mr. Kalil. Mr. Kalil: Yes, I know that, but I am referring to staying away from spot zoning. And, the setbacks that are required tinder C-1, to allow them to be able to build an addition on their building without the setbacks. Unless this Board will grant the setbacks.. Mr. Silverman: There are the same setback requirements in C-1 .and C-4. Mr. Simpson: C-1 gives them everything they want. Mr. Silverman: They have no objection to C-1, they don't need anything more liberal. Mr. Kalil: No, he was referring to - Mr. Whipple was referring,. to the setbacks, and they were to - if they built an adjoining building, and addition on the building, on'14th - what is that? 14th Avenue? Yes. Mr. Silverman: I'd rather give them C-1 over there, and if and when they have an opportunity to expand, and; they feel they needthe setback variance of five feet, let them come back at that time. That's going to be several years away. And then, we will see what happens at that time. They are here on the C-1 this evening. Rev. Wright: This is in your district, Mr. Kalil, what is your pleasure? It is in sections. Mr. Burns: Mr. Chairman, before we close the discussion. If 1 was following Mr, Whipple correctly, it was - the problem I.thought he was trying to raise i , you are going to orient traffic onto a residential street, %his rec_ mmendationi was to get it back on ne commercial street. And going _orward with the C--1 doesn't meet that. Mr. Whipple, weren't you trying to change the traffic pattern flow through this proposed development, or, wasn't that your point? Mr, Whipple; Not - no, I am sorry, that wasn't quite the point, The point was that we .did not want the commercial activity, or"commer- cial zoning with the potential activity, across from the residential area, which would be the northern part of Bloch 2, In other words, -21- December 6, 1971 Item 01 • if you take the green area of block 2, and you take Lots 14 through la, they are facing, or would face, a commercial classification directly north. .we feel thin is, wham ,lean desirables And, particularly in light of the fact, that the applicant§ agree, and we agree, that a proper application of coning for the southern tract is R-Cs In other words, the t-C application, the existing 'it»C and future R-C, we hope, would be then compatible with the north, the north aide of 10th Terrace, which we are recommending, also, far ft-Cs And, here you have the setbacks, the orientation the applicants have agreed to moving the entranceway to an easterly point, 1 wound. venture to say, some fifty -feet easterly of where they orginaily have it, which we feel is appropriate. We had suggested, perhaps, down to another seventy -feet to their existing entranceway, andmake it an entrance and exit. They have suggested an in-between point, with their exit still maintaining the separation of ingress from the egress. So, what we're trying to say is, that we feel the northern portion should be R-C, from a compatibility standpoint of setbacks, and useage, commercial versus residential -office,' in the future. Rev. Wright: All right. Now, Mr. Kalil, this is in your district. Mr. Kalil: All right, I make a motion for approvalof � Item #4, "a". Rev. Wright: The motion is for appro'al, of Item #4, "a"• Mr. Silverman: Well, under this - as I understand the applicant changed his proposal - that the northern portion would be C-1, and the southern block would be R-C. Now, isn't that correct? Mr. Trantham: Well, Mr. Silverman, I really didn't change it, I just said we could live with it, if that was your pleasure, and if "you want to . . that as an amendment, you may. Rev. Wright: Is that your motion, Mr. Kalil? Mr. Kalil: Yes, the motion, in "a", is to change the C-4 to C-1. Mr. Simpson: Let me clarify. I think. I. understand the motion it is the drive-in tellers you want to be in R-C classification, the main bank site C-1. will Mr. Trantham:. Mr. Simpson: be changed from Mr. Trantham: Correct. All right, then, all the subject lots C-4, and R-3, to C-1. Correct. Mr, Simpson; All of the subject lots in Block 2 will be from R-3 to R-C. Mr, Martinez: I will second that. Rev. Wright; All right. Mr. Simpson, call the roll, please. No objections were received in the mail.
