ANALYSIS FOR
CHANGE OF ZONING
FILE ID: 16-00831zc
APPLICANT: Daniel J. Alfonso, City Manager on behalf of the City of Miami
PROJECT ADDRESS: 1197 SW 19 Avenue
NET OFFICE: Coral Way NET Area
A. GENERAL INFORMATION:
COMMISSION DISTRICT: District 4
HEARING DATE: 07/06/2016
REQUEST: Pursuant to Article 7, Section 7.1.2.8 (b)(20) of Ordinance 13114, as amended,
the City of Miami is requesting a Change of Zoning from T3 -R (Sub -Urban Transect Zone -
Restricted) to CS (Civic Space Transect Zone) for a parcel located at approximately 1197
SW 19 Avenue.
The subject property is located within the South Shenandoah subdivision and the Coral Way
NET area. The total area proposed to be rezoned is approximately. 15 acres (See Exhibit A).
A complete legal description of the site is on file at the Hearing Boards Office.
B. BACKGROUND:
As established by the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan and the 2007 Miami Parks
and Public Spaces Master Plan, a basic goal is for every resident to live within a quarter mile
walk to a park. In recognizing the great need to expand access to parks for the City of Miami
residents, the Parks & Recreation, Planning & Zoning, and Real Estate & Asset Management
departments have coordinated to identify and purchase land to create more parks. Extensive
analysis of park access across the City has been conducted and neighborhoods that lack
parks have been identified and targeted for park land acquisition.
The Site consists of one parcel in the Shenandoah neighborhood. The Site is a corner lot,
located on SW 19 Avenue and SW 12 Street. It is in the middle of a single family residential
neighborhood.
C. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
The requested zoning designation of CS (Civic Space Transect Zone) is inconsistent with the
current underlying Future Land Use designation of Single Family Residential, thus a
Comprehensive Plan Amendment shall be submitted concurrently to request a change to
Public Parks and Recreation.

G. ANALYSIS:
The following is a review of the request pursuant to a rezoning criteria at Article 7, Section 7.1.2.8
(b)(20) of Miami 21. Section B of this report is hereby incorporated into the analysis and its
corresponding criteria by reference:
Criteria
Article 2, Section 2.1.3.2 (e) under "The Community — Guiding Principles" states
"a range of Open Spaces, including Parks, Squares and Playground, should be
distributed within Neighborhoods and urban centers." Additionally, the 2007
Miami Parks and Public Spaces Master Plan states in Chapter 4, Section D the
City "should then continue its efforts, advancing towards the goal of a park
within one-quarter mile of every Miami home" (page 73).
Analysis
The proposed rezoning would allow the development of a neighborhood park
to which neighbors would be able to walk without crossing heavily trafficked
thoroughfares. As mentioned in Section B, through the City's Park Land
Acquisition team, the surrounding neighborhood was identified as an area of
need for park access, as there is no park within a quarter mile walk. The
proposed rezoning addresses the existing need for access to park and open
space in the neighborhood. Staff finds the proposal meets the intent and goals
of Miami 21 and would achieve a greater quality of life for the area.
Refer to the map in Section F for further background on the methods of the
Park Land Acquisition program. Specifically, the map demonstrates how the
development of a park on the Site will accomplish the goals of Miami 21. The
darkly shaded polygon in the center of the map illustrates the area of
Shenandoah that will be served by the new park. The polygon represents the
walkshed (a geographic area within a certain distance of a point, in this case
one-quarter mile) for the new park on the site.
Finding
Consistent with the intent of the Miami 21 Code
H. CONCLUSION:
The Department of Planning and Zoning recommends approval of the request for a change of
zoning from T3 -R (Sub -Urban Transect Zone - Restricted) to CS (Civic Space Transect Zone).
Staff finds the zoning request is consistent with the goals of the Miami 21 Code as the request is
compatible with the surrounding zoning district.
I. RECOMMENDATION:
Pursuant to Article 7, Section 7.1.2.8 of Ordinance 13114, as amended on the aforementioned
findings, the Planning & Zoning Department recommends approval of the proposed rezoning as
presented.
