Compatible with Comprehensive Plan.
A proposed rezoning should be compatible with and advance the goals and policies contained in the City's
Comprehensive Plan. The proposed amendment is consistent with and supports the following goals and
policies:
LAND USE ELEMENT
Goal 1 To maintain and improve the City's neighborhoods, and the quality of life of
existing and future residents.
Policy 1.1.2 In reviewing proposed amendments to this plan and the Zoning Map, compatibility
with adjacent uses shall be the major determinant.
RECREATION AND OPEN SPACE ELEMENT
Goal 1 To ensure the availability of adequate park facilities and open space for
citizens of South Miami.
STAFF OBSERVATIONS
The current zoning district of "RS -3" Low - Density Residential Zoning Use District will need to be
changed to the "PR" Parks and Recreation Zoning Use District.
1. The property is surrounded by single - family zoning. The creation of a neighborhood park serving
local area residents is a compatible land use.
2. The proposed amendment is consistent with the goals and policies of the City's Comprehensive
Plan.
The amendment is needed in order to accurately reflect the location of City parks on the Official
Zoning Map and to maintain and protect the City's inventory of recreation and open space.
4. The zoning district change will formally recognize the City's efforts and citizen participation in
assuring the protection of green open space and the creation of a neighborhood park.

Development Code by changing the zoning use district from "RS -3" Low - Density
Residential Zoning Use District to "PR" Parks and Recreation Zoning Use District for the
property identified as All - America Park located at 6820 SW 64 Avenue
(Folio No. 09- 4025- 000 - 0430); providing for severability; providing for ordinances in

SUMMARY OF REQUEST
The subject application would amend the zoning use district on the property. The subject
property's current zoning "RS -3" Low- Density Residential Zoning Use District must be changed
to the "PR" Parks and Recreation Zoning Use District. The action is being initiated by the City as
a follow up to a change in the Future Land Use Map (FLUM) Category for the same property.
The FLUM amendment was a technical correction needed to show the correct future land use
map category for the property. The FLUM change was adopted on September 7, 2010 via
Ordinance No.21 -10 -2046 and was accepted by the Florida Department of Community Affairs as
• small scale amendment in a communication dated October 15, 2010. The property will become
• neighborhood park with limited recreational activities.
RECENT HISTORY OF THE SITE
The City purchased the property at 6820 SW 64 Avenue in 1997 for the purpose of preserving
the natural vegetation and trees. It has been described as an excellent example of the "Old
Florida" ecosystem.

Compatible with Comprehensive Plan.
A proposed rezoning should be compatible with and advance the goals and policies contained
in the City's Comprehensive Plan. The proposed amendment is consistent with and supports
the following goals and policies:
LAND USE ELEMENT
Goal I To maintain and improve the City's neighborhoods, and the quality of life
of existing and future residents.
Policy 1.1.2 In reviewing proposed amendments to this plan and the Zoning Map,
compatibility with adjacent uses shall be the major determinant.
RECREATION AND OPEN SPACE ELEMENT
GOAL 1 To ensure the availability of adequate park facilities and open space for
citizens of South Miami.
STAFF OBSERVATIONS
The current zoning district of "RS -3" Low - Density Residential Zoning Use District will need to
be changed to the "PR" Parks and Recreation Zoning Use District.
1. The property is surrounded by single- family zoning. The creation of a neighborhood park
serving local area residents is a compatible land use.
2. The proposed amendment is consistent with the goals and policies of the City's
Comprehensive Plan.
The amendment is needed in order to accurately reflect the location of City parks on the
Official Zoning Map and to maintain and protect the City's inventory of recreation and
open space.

7801 SW 59 Avenue Support
Mr. Connell questioned if the Board or staff could provide him with the details of what is
occurring with PB -10 -040. Mr. Youkilis responded that all properties in the city have two
categories. One is the Land Use category, which was adjusted about two months ago and the
second is zoning. This is a single- family zone, but it is now a park. This procedure has to be
followed in order to change the zoning district and Land Use Category.
Mr. Youkilis commented that the department recently received a letter from Mr. John Park. Mr.
Youkilis read the letter, which informed the Board that the citizens are in support of making
placing for Van Smith Park in the park zoning district.
Mrs. Young questioned who John Park is. Mr. Connell replied that he is an adjacent owner of the
property, who supports the item.
Mr. Whitman questioned how all the motions and votes will be determined since the items are
being read together. Mr. Morton responded that the motions could be made separate.
NAME ADDRESS SUPPORT /OPPOSE PROJECT
Seida Wood 6001 SW 79 Street Support
Mrs. Wood questioned if the park PB -10 -040 is going to be a passive park and could there be
some language to prevent the park from being an active park. Mr. Youkilis responded that when
the property was purchased it was to conserve'it as a natural habitat. Mrs. Yates commented that
the intent is to maintain the native wildlife, vegetation and species. The property should look the
next thirty years from now.
The Chair closed the public hearing.

line. Mr. Morton questioned if there was a difference between the legal description with item
PB -10 -043 and PB -10 -044. Mr. Vageline replied that there are lots of plats that have the Larkin
name included.
Mr. Farfan questioned if the City of South Miami is the owner of the property (PB -10 -040) once
Mr. Van Smith is deceased. Mr. Youkilis responded that the City is already listed as owner of the
property, but allows Mr. Van Smith to continue living on the property until he has deceased.

PB -10 -045.
Applicant: City of South Miami
Location: 7435 SW 66 Avenue
An Ordinance of the Mayor and City Commission of the City of South Miami, Florida,
relating to a request to amend the official zoning map of the City of South Miami Land
Development Code by changing the zoning use district from "PI" Public/Institutional
Zoning Use District to "RS -3" Low - Density Residential Zoning Use District for the
property identified as the Rothan Residence located at 7435 SW 66 Avenue (Folio No. 09-
4036- 050 - 0020); providing for severability; providing for ordinances in conflict; and
providing an effective date.
Action: Mrs. Yates read the item into the record.
Mr. Youkilis informed the Board that the item before them is a corrective action requested by a
City Commissioner and the resident. The property did have a Land Use category, which was
changed from Educational (four stories) to Single - Family Residential. The category change was
approved by the Planning Board and the City Commission. The application was submitted to
DCA and was approved as a small scale amendment. Therefore, the next level down still shows
that the zoning district is (PI) Public Institutions, which is used for schools. However, it is a
single - family house and should be changed to RS -3 Low- Density Residential zoning. The owner
of the property has been notified, but no response was received. Staff recommends the change of
the zoning district to be approved.
The Chair opened the Public Hearing.
No discussion
The Chair closed the Public Hearing.
Mr. Morton questioned does the north portion of the property (the playing field) count as a park.
Mr. Youldlis replied anywhere where there is open space it is categorized as open space. Mr.
Vageline commented that since 1989, the property is labeled as park and recreation, but it is not
useable to the public.
Mrs. Beckman questioned if there will be in investigation on the property since a person was
able to change zoning into the four stories. Mr. Youkilis responded that page two provides the
description of the Future Land Use map. The error stated 1986 which showed the property as PI
on the zoning map. In 1997, when the first Future Land Use map came out it the property was
labeled as an Educational category (four stories).
Mrs. Beckman questioned if the Land Use plan was signed off by a City planner. Mr. Vageline
responded that when this task was under taken in 1986, it could have been done by consultants or
planners or a combination of both. The procedure is usually not signed off by individuals; they
are presented to the LPA, than the City Commission.
Mrs. Yates commented that in 1989 when the Comprehensive Plan started, the whole city
Planning Board
November 30, 2010
Page 6 of 6
received a category and this category was a mistake, but after twenty years this mistake should
not happen again. Staff does go through the maps to locate the properties that are not consistent.
Mrs. Young commented that under proposed amendment review, can the home not be rebuild
due to the conforming use? Mr. Youkilis replied yes.
Mr. Morton questioned when this change is made will the last sentence be removed. Mr.
Youkilis responded yes.
Motion: Mr. Morton moved to approve the item as presented. Mrs. Young seconded.
Vote: 7 Ayes 0 Nays
