GENERAL REQUEST:
Pursuant to Article 7, Section 7.1.2.8, of Ordinance 13114, as amended, the applicant has applied
for a Change of Zoning located at approximately 1900 NE Miami Court, Miami, Florida. The
applicant proposes to rezone the parcels from T6-8-0 (Urban Core - Open) to T6-12-0 (Urban

which contains a multi -story building built in 1923 that most recently serviced a charter school.
The site is bounded by NW 2011 Street to the north, NE 19 Street to the south, NE Miami Court to
the east and it abuts Florida East Coast Railroad and North Miami Avenue to the west. The subject
site is located within the Wynwood NET.
As shown in the above Zoning Map, the parcel to the north is zoned D1 (Workplace) and it is
occupied by Florida Power & Light facility. The Cl (Civic Institution) parcel to the south contains
Biscayne Park and a fire station. The properties that lie to the east of the subject site are zoned
T6-12-0 and T6-8-0 on the north and south sides of NE 19 Street, respectively. The T6-12-0
parcel that immediately abuts the site on the east houses an Auto -related Commercial
Establishment, specifically an auto repair facility. The T6-8-0 parcel which also immediately abuts
the subject site to the east currently has a multi -story chart school under construction.
As stated previously, the applicant proposes a change of zoning of the subject property from T6-
8-0 (Urban Core Open) to T6-12-0 (Urban Core -Open). In this case, preliminary site plans were
not submitted for review of the proposed zoning designation of T6-12-0.
MIAMI COMPREHENSIVE NEIGHBORHOOD PLAN:
The requested change of zoning is consistent with the current Miami Comprehensive
Neighborhood Plan (MCNP) designation of General Commercial for the property, and therefore a
