An Ordinance amending the Future Land Use Map of the South Miami Comprehensive
Plan by changing the future land use map category from TODD (4+4 Story) to Hospital, for
an area identified as 7031 SW 62 Avenue (Larkin Community Hospital) -Folio #09-4025-
027-0010.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST
This item was previously heard and approved on first reading by the Commission on August 7,
2012. Prior to the second reading, the applicant requested that the item be tabled. Since there was
no date certain specified for the item to come back to the Commission, the following Section of
the Code of Ordinances requires that the item to be reheard as first reading.
Section 2-2.1. -Rules of procedure of city commission.
The following rules of procedure shall govern all meetings of the city commission, namely:
(C) " ... Any agenda item that has been tabled without a time certain shall automatically be
removed if not acted upon during the three (3) succeeding regular commission meetings
following the date of said tabling"
The subject application is a Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map amendment that was
originally initiated at a workshop held by the City Commission on April 12, 2011. At the
workshop, it was decided that the future land use map category entitled "Hospital" be re-created
so that the existing Hospital facilities would be made conforming; this category had been
removed from the Future Land Use Plan in 1997. On November 1,2011 the comprehensive plan
category "Hospital" was adopted by the City Commission on final reading [Ordinance 37-11-
2110] and transmitted to the State Department of Economic Opportunity (formerly the
Department of Community Affairs). Staff is now bringing this category to the Planning Board,
acting in its capacity as the Local Planning Agency (LPA), for application to specific properties
on the City's Future Land Use Map.
Current Land Use Plan & Map Category
Prior to 1997, this property had a land use category of Hospital/Office (4-Story). The
Hospital/Office (4-Story) category was removed from the City's Comprehensive Plan Category in
1997 during the evaluation and appraisal reporting period (97-1 ER). The land use plan category
of "Hospital" was reinstated on November, 1 2011(Ordinance 37-11-2110); the map category is
currently Transit Oriented Development District (TODD (4+4).

Land Use Plan Category: [Ordinance 37-11-2110]:
Hospital -The hospital land use category shall be applied to development projects and
properties providing hospital facilities with building heights and intensities compatible
with existing and adjacent uses and special uses. Permitted heights, densities and
intensities shall be set forth as part of a corresponding zoning use district in the Land
Development Code.
Compatibility of Use: Larkin Hospital is a pre-existing Hospital facility that has been in
operation since the 1970's. The facility fronts SW 62nd Avenue with secondary access
for emergency vehicles on SW 70th Street, 'and is bounded by medical office and
commercial uses.
Compatibility of Density/Height: The Hospital category was removed from the city's
comprehensive plan in 1997, effectively making Larkin Community Hospital
nonconfonning. The proposed future land use· map category will reestablish a category
for this existing use. Heights and densities for "new" or expanded hospital facilities must
comply with the requirements of Section 20-3.4(14), and the MO zoning district in
Section 20-3.5 of the City's Land Development Code, enumerated below.
Impact on Public Facilities: An important element of a future land use map amendment
is to assess the impact of the change on the public infrastructure serving the site. Please
note that these facilities are preexisting; any expansion ofthe hospital facilities shall be in
compliance with the requirements of the comprehensive plan and land development code.
For purposes of this report, presented below isa summary of the projected impact of the
proposed land use map category on public facility capacity.

Excerpt from the Land Development Code
20-3.1 -Zoning use districts and purposes.
(A) Zoning Districts Established In order to implement the intent of this Code
and the city's adopted Comprehensive Plan, the City is hereby divided into
twenty-nine (29) zoning use districts with the symbol designations and general
purposes listed below and permitted uses set forth in Section 20-3.3(D) Standards
shall be uniform throughout each zoning use district. District symbols and names
shall be known as: '
(B) District Purpose Statements.
(27)"H" Hospital District: The purpose of this district is to permit, as a special
use, areas that will accommodate various hospital needs in a manner compatible
Z:\Commissioll 11em$\20 13\1-8-13\Larkin fLUM TODD 10 H\Larkin fLUM Amendmenl TODD 10 11_ eM rep0l1 I-S-13.doc

with nearby residential areas. The district also permits office uses at appropriate
intensities in the event that hospital uses are terminated and is appropriate in areas
designated "Hospital/Office" on the city's adopted Comprehensive Plan. The
unique nature of hospital usage and its quickly changing needs and characteristics
makes their proper regulation under ordinary zoning regulations difficult.
Hospitals located near residential areas are both an asset in terms of jobs and
services provided and a liability in terms of traffic generated and their propensity
to expand. It is the intent of this district to establish stable land use patterns in
hospital areas upon which local residents and hospitals can both rely.
20-3.3 (D) -Permitted use schedule.
20-3.4 -Special use conditions.
Any of the following special uses may be approved and permitted by the city commission
at a public hearing, after a recommendation by the planning board, provided that such use
is specifically listed as a permitted special use in the appropriate district column in the
Permitted Use Schedule (Section 20-3.3D), and that such use complies with the following
general and special requirements and any other conditions that the city commission may
consider appropriate and necessary:
(A) General Requirements.
(1) All such uses shall comply with all requirements established in the appropriate
zoning use district, unless additional or more restrictive requirements are set forth
below or by the city commission.
(2) All such uses shall be determined to be of a compatible and complementary
nature with any existing or planned sunounding uses.
Z:\Commission I1cms\20J 3\1-8-I 31Larkin FLUM TODD to HILarkin FLUM Amendment TODD 10 H_ CM rcpoI1 1-8· J3.doc

(3) A public hearing shall be held by the city commission to determine the overall
compatibility of the use with the surrounding neighborhood.
(4) If a special use is, in the future, determined by the Director of Planning, to be
adversely affecting the health or safety of persons residing or working in the
vicinity of the proposed use, to be detrimental to the public welfare or property or
improvements in the neighborhood, or to be not in compliance with other
applicable Code provisions, the special use approval may be modified or revoked
by the City Commission upon notification and public hearing.
(14) HOSPITAL. The construction of new or the expansion or conversion of existing
hospital facilities and accessory uses shall be subject to the following:
(a) Such construction, expansion, conversion shall:
i. Not create additional traffic on adjacent residential streets;
ii. Not overburden any other public facility, except that the hospital may agree to provide
or expand needed facilities at no added public cost;
iii. Be compatible with the surrounding area and conform to the city's adopted
Comprehensive Plan.
(b) The city commission may attach such conditions and safeguards to an approval of a
special use as are reasonably necessary and required to protect public interest in:
i. Completion of the development according to approved plans;
ii. Provision for continuing operation and maintenance of such areas, facilities and
functions as are not to be provided, operated or maintained at public expense; and
iii. Provision for such dedications, contributions or guarantees are required for provision
of needed public facilities and services.
(c) The preceding paragraph shall not deny the city commission the authority to set other
conditions and safeguards at the time of special use approval, but where such conditions
and safeguards are attached the city commission shall determine that they are reasonably
necessary and required to protect the public interest and to carry out the intent and
purpose of the "H" District and the city's adopted Comprehensive Plan.
(d) The provisions of this section shall not apply in the event that a "Planned Unit
Development-Hospital" (PUD-H) District has been enacted by the city commission for a
subject property. In such event, the provisions of the PUD-H District, as approved by the
city commission, shall apply. In the event that a PUD-H District is applied to a property
subsequent to the adoption of this Code, then the provisions of said PUD-H District shall
supersede the provisions of this section.
(e) Dimensional requirements shall be approved by the city commission but in no case
shall they be less restrictive than requirements applicable to the MO District.

Staff Observations
1. The proposed amendment is consistent with the goals and policies of the City's
Comprehensive Plan.
2. The land use amendment will formally recognize the City'S efforts and citizen
participation in assuring the continued compatibility of Hospital facilities with the
surrounding neighborhood.
3. This is a preexisting facility; impact of the proposed land use map category change
will have no change to public facilities including traffic, waste collection, water and
sewers.
4. Since this is a preexisting hospital facility with an incorrect land use designation, it is
recommended that Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map be amended by
approving the Future Land Use Map Category titled "Hospital" be applied to the
property located at 7031 SW 62 Avenue. If"the Commission wishes to proceed with
the proposed amendment, a rezoning of the property will also be required.
