PZ-25-20149 — Automotive Related Commercial Use; future cohesive redevelopment in Miami, FL
Applicant seeks to rezone two parcels totaling 2.49 acres along the Calle Ocho corridor to enable cohesive redevelopment of an existing automotive commercial site currently characterized by surface parking and legacy structures. The Planning Department recommends denial of both the proposed rezoning of the 701 Parcel from T5-L to T6-8-O and the 665 Parcel from T6-8-O to T6-12-O, finding that the requested increase in development intensity, particularly the T6-12-O designation, is inconsistent with the established zoning pattern and lacks sufficient justification.
- Staff recommends denial — this one is fighting uphill
