Approximately 4136 N. Miami Avenue [Commissioner Michelle Spence-Jones - District 5] Javier F. Avino, Esquire, on behalf of One Fountainhead Center, LLC 333 Avenue of the Americas Miami, FL 33131 (305)579-0703 Current Zoning: T4-L General Urban Zone Proposed Zoning: T5-O Urban Center Zone Purpose: Planning and Zoning Department Recommendation: Analysis: This will change the above property from T4-L "General Urban Transect Zone" to T5-O to "Urban Center Transect Zone".

ANALYSIS FOR ZONING CHANGE Approximately 4136 N Miami Avenue FILE NO 12-00083zc The subject proposal seeks to amend the Miami 21 Zoning Atlas and has been reviewed pursuant to Article 7, Section 7.1.2.8 of the Miami 21 Zoning Code, Ordinance 13114, as amended. Application requests: The request is to change the current zoning classification from T4-L "General Urban Transect Zone - Limited" to T5-0 "Urban Center Transect Zone - Open". The subject properties are located within the Little Haiti NET area, and consist of northeast parcel of the block bounded with NW 42nd Street to the North, North Miami Avenue to the East, NW 41st Street to the South, and NW 1st Avenue to the West, as depicted in Exhibit "A" (A complete legal description is on file at the Hearing Boards Office) Review and analysis of the proposed application finds that: The subject property is the northeast parcel of the block bounded with NW 42nd Street to the North, North Miami Avenue to the East, NW 41st Street to the South, and NW 1st Avenue to the West. From said block, two out of the three eastern parcels, facing N. Miami Avenue, are designated T5-0 and the subject parcel is currently designated T4-L. The proposed change of zoning designation would assign the same designation to all the eastern parcels of the same block facing North Miami Avenue. The current zoning designation promotes an appropriate transition from East to West and from North to South. The subject parcels comply with Article 7, Section 7.1.2.8 a. Successional Zoning of the Miami 21 Code. The proposed zoning designation is not consistent with the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan (MCNP) FLUM designation of "Low Density Restricted Commercial", which will require an amendment for consistency. Following are the densities allowed per transects: T4 - L "General Urban Transect Zone -Limited": T5-0 "Urban Center Transect Zone - Open": 36 Units per acre 65 Units per acre The proposed change of zoning designation would promote an undesirable abrupt transition from East to West. Based on these findings, the Planning Department is recommending denial of the application as presented.
