Amendments to Land Development Regulations
RECOMMENDATION:
It is requested that the City Commission adopt the Resolution.
REASONS:
Upon reviewing the Land Development Regulations (LDR) and the direction of the City
Commission the following are the amendments to the LDR. The changes occur to properties
abutting Collins Avenue and within the Town Center. The zoning districts affected are RMF-2
multiple family residence. This zoning district only occurs on a3 parcel at the South end of the City,
between 158 and 159 Street. The B-1 district is on the majority of the west side of Collins Avenue.
The other area is the Town Center between Sunny Isles Blvd to the South part of Winston Towers.
The Cultural and Educational zoning overlay between 178 Street and 185 Street.
The purpose for the modifications is to incorporate the building vertical setback for properties
abutting Collins A venue to allow greater setbacks from the property line for the building as the as
the height increases. Additionally, 10 foot landscape easement has been incorporated within the
front setback for all properties abutting Collins Avenue. The building separation within the Town
Center has been modified in order to achieve a view corridor and prevent buildings to close
together.
