ANALYSIS:
Following the above referenced "Background", this proposal for rezoning is taking in consideration
criteria set forth in Article 7, Section 7.1.2.8 (a)(3) & (f)(2) of Miami 21:
Rezone of 240 SE 14h Street from T6 -8-R to T6 -48a-0.
Criteria: For rezoning: A change may be made only to the next intensity Transect Zone or
by a Special Area Plan, and in a manner which maintains the goals of the Miami
21 Code to preserve Neighborhoods and to provide transitions in intensity and
building heights.
Analysis: Previously under Zoning Ordinance 11000, North Miami Avenue south of NE 421
Street was zoned O (Office) with an abutting SD -5 (Brickell Avenue Area
Residential -Office District) overlay. The intent of these designations were to
promote the use of structures to facilitate permanent and transitory residential
facilities such as hotels and motels, general office uses, clinics and laboratories
and limited commercial activities incidental to the principal uses. In addition,

building height for Office and SD -5 uses were unlimited. Within the Office zone,
building height for residential use were limited by R-4 zoning regulations, while
within the SD -5 residential building height was unlimited;
Under the Miami 21 Code, the parcels in this area have been rezoned into two
zoning categories; T6 -8-R and T6 -48a-0.
Finding: The current FLUM designation is "Restricted Commercial" with a "Brickell
Residential Density Increase Area" of 500 du/ac. Under Zoning Ordinance 11000
the parcel was zoned "Office" (0) with an abutting SD -5 (Brickell Avenue Area
Office -Residential District) overlay, permitting uses and building heights much
greater than the Miami 21 designation of T6 -8-R.
CONCLUSION:
The proposed change of zoning is compatible with the density and intensity of the adjacent
Transect Zones. Staff finds the change of zoning request to be consistent with the goals of the
Miami 21 Code as it is compatible with the surrounding zoning district, and the current zoning
designation is likely the result of a scrivener's error.
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.
