Home My WebLink AboutAnalysis & MapsANALYSIS FOR Comprehensive Plan Amendment PROJECT ADDRESS: 100 NW 17 ST, Miami FL, 33130 19111011111U11WEEMl APPLICANT: City of Miami COMMISSION DISTRICT: District 2 NET OFFICE: Overtown REQUEST Pursuant to Future Land Use Policy LU -1.6.3 of the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan, the subject proposal has been reviewed for a change to the Future Land Use Map (FLUM) of the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan designation from "Medium Density Multifamily Residential" to "Major Institutional, Public Facilities, Transportation, and Utilities" of real property located at approximately 100 NW 17 St Miami, Florida (a complete legal description of the property is on file at the Hearing Boards Office). FUTURE LAND USE INTERPRETATION Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan (MCNP) Policy LU -1.6.1 established future land use categories according to the 2020 Future Land Use Map and the "Interpretation of the Future Land Use Map." "Areas designated as "Medium Density Multifamily Residential" allow residential structures to a maximum density of 65 dwelling units per acre, subject to the detailed provisions of the applicable land development regulations and the maintenance of required levels of service for facilities and services included in the City's adopted concurrency management requirements. Supporting services such as community-based residential facilities (14 clients or less, not including drug, alcohol or correctional rehabilitation facilities) will be allowed pursuant to applicable state law; community-based residential facilities (15-50 clients) and day care centers for children and adults may be permissible in suitable locations. Permissible uses within medium density multifamily areas also include commercial activities that are intended to serve the retailing and personal services needs of the building or building complex, small scale limited commercial uses as accessory uses, subject to the detailed provisions of applicable land development regulations and the maintenance of required levels of service for such uses, places of worship, primary and secondary schools, and accessory post -secondary educational facilities. Professional offices, tourist and guest homes, museums, and private clubs or lodges are allowed only in contributing structures within historic sites or historic districts that have been designated by the Historical and Environmental Preservation Board and are in suitable locations within medium density multifamily residential areas, pursuant to applicable land development regulations and the maintenance of required levels of service for such uses. Density and intensity limitations for said uses shall be restricted to those of the contributing structure(s)." "Areas designated as "Major Institutional, Public Facilities, Transportation and Utilities" allow facilities for federal, state and local government activities, major public or private health, recreational, cultural, religious or educational activities, and major transportation facilities and public utilities. Residential facilities ancillary to these uses are allowed up to a maximum density equivalent to "High Density Multifamily Residential" or if applicable the least intense abutting/adjacent residential zoning district, subject to the same limiting conditions. Areas designated as "Major Institutional, Public Facilities, Transportation and Utilities" allow nonresidential uses to a maximum floor lot ratio (FLR) of 6.0 times the net lot area of the subject property. Properties designated "Major Institutional, Public Facilities, Transportation and Utilities" in the Health / Civic Center District allow a maximum floor lot ratio (FLR) of 8.0 times the net lot area of the subject property. Properties designated "Major Institutional, Public Facilities, Transportation and Utilities" in the Urban Central Business District allow a maximum FLR of 37.0 times the net lot area of the subject property." DISCUSSION The subject area consists of one parcel, at 100 NW 17 St, containing approximately 0.179 acres (7,800 sq.ft.), in the Overtown neighborhood. The property sits adjacent to "Medium Density Multifamily Residential" properties to the north, west, and south, "Light Industrial" areas to the east and southeast, and Dorsey Park to the northeast. The property is the site of the Dorsey Memorial Library, a historically designated structure built in 1941. The building is named after Dana A. Dorsey, the prominent African-American businessman who donated the land. The library was a key place for residents of the Overtown community to access educational resources. The building is in a state of disrepair, posing a threat to public health and safety. The current Future Land Use Designation of "Medium Density Multifamily Residential" does not allow for the repair and redevelopment of the property as a local government facility. In order to repair the structure to a dignified and appropriate state to accommodate a community center and/or an educational facility, the property must be designated "Major Institutional, Public Facilities, Transportation, and Utilities". Additionally, there is a companion application to change the Miami 21 Transect Zone from "T3-0" to "Civic Institutional", which would permit the "Community Support Facility" use under the Zoning Code. 1444 Page 2 of 5 toaNW 1FsT y. -- Medium r Drnsi v I, Multitamisy N Resldeniol Light i Incustrai NV4 ST Future Land Use Map — Existing --Mer'iuT I}ensry� �.+�v Muttrfamiy Resrdennal Z; ��Major Irrsbtuponal.
