ITEM No. 6;�
Subject: A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR & CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SOUTH
MIAMI, FLORIDA, RELATING TO A REQUEST FOR A VARIANCE FROM SECTION 20- 3.5(E) OF
THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE TO PERMIT A NEW SINGLE FAMILY HOME TO BE BUILT ON
A LOT WITH LOT FRONTAGE OF 32.4 FEET WHERE A MINIMUM 75 FEET OF FRONTAGE IS
REQUIRED ON PROPERTY WITHIN AN "RS -3" SINGLE - FAMILY RESIDENTIAL USE DISTRICT,
LOCATED AT 7630 SW 63 COURT, SOUTH MIAMI, FLORIDA; AND PROVIDING FOR AN
EFFECTIVE DATE
Request:
The applicant is requesting approval of a variance from Section 20- 3.5(E) of the Land Development Code to permit
a new single family home to be built on a lot with lot frontage of 32.9 feet vs. a required 75 foot setback in an RS -3
Single Family Residential zone. The purpose of the variance request is to orient the front of the house toward a
residential street as opposed to a street with commercial properties.
The applicant's property is a triangular shaped vacant lot with a lot area of 12,314 sq.ft. The property is a corner
lot facing two streets, Manor Lane and SW 63 Court, which is closed at Manor Lane. The applicant's current plans
are to build the front of the home facing the SW 63 Court, a residential oriented street. The frontage of a parcel is
always considered the side facing a right -of -way or in the case of a corner lot, the shortest side. This is a double
frontage lot and the frontage. oriented toward Manor Lane would comply. In the applicant's proposal the lot
frontage is to be on SW 63 Court, however, it is only 329 feet in a zoning district requiring a minimum of 75 feet
in frontage.
Staff Observations:
(1) The applicant correctly states that using Manor Lane as the frontage of the property would be hardship due to
the volume of traffic on Manor Lane and the commercial nature of the uses directly across the street. The applicant
also states that creating a house shaped to match the irregular shape of the parcel (triangular) would be out of
character with the homes on SW 63'6 Court.
(2) The applicant's claim of hardship due to the irregular shape of the lot is supportable under the variance decision
criteria set forth in the Land Development Code in Section 20- 6.1(13)(3)(h).
Planning Board Action:
The Planning Board at its July 11, 2006 meeting adopted a motion by a vote of 5 ayes 0 nays recommending
approval the requested variance with the following conditions: an opaque landscape hedge or an equivalent buffer
of a minimum 6 feet in height shall be planted along the Manor Lane property line and the site plans be reviewed
by the Environmental Review and Preservation Board before the item proceeds to the City Commission. The
applicant did receive final design approval from the ERPB at its October 3, 2006 meeting.
(2)
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the variance request be approved with the following condition: an opaque landscape hedge
or an equivalent buffer of a minimum 6 feet in height shall be planted along the Manor Lane property line (with
the exception of the driveway entrance)

SUMMARY OF RE VEST
The applicant is requesting approval of a variance from Section 20- 3.5(E) of the Land
Development Code to permit a new single family Home to be built on a lot with lot frontage of
32.9 feet vs. a required 75 foot setback in an RS -3 Single Family Residential zone. The purpose
of the variance request is to orient the front of the house toward a residential street as opposed to
a street with commercial properties.

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS
The applicant's property is a triangular shaped lot with a lot area of 12,314 sq.ft. The property is
now vacant. The applicant is proposing to construct a two story single family home. The property
PB 06 -019
Variance Request —5841 SW 63 Ct

Page 2 of 5
is a corner lot facing two streets, Manor Lane and SW 63 Court, which is closed at Manor Lane.
The frontage of a parcel is always considered the side facing a right -of -way or in the case of a
corner lot, the shortest side. In the applicant's case the lot frontage is on SW 63 Court, however,
is only 32.9 feet in a zoning district requiring a minimum of 75 feet in frontage. This is a double
frontage lot and the frontage oriented toward Manor Lane would comply. The applicant's current
plans are to build a two story home with the front of the home facing the SW 63 Court, a
residential oriented street.
STAFF OBSERVATIONS
The subject property has its legal address on SW 63rd Court. The applicant correctly states
that using Manor Lane as the frontage of the property would be hardship due to the volume of
traffic on Manor Lane and the commercial nature of the uses directly across the street. The
applicant also states that creating a house shaped to match the irregular shape of the parcel
(triangular) would be out of character with the homes on SW 63Td Court. LDC ,Section 20-
3.6(F)(4) would resolve the issue in favor of the orientation toward SW 63`d Court.
• The applicant's claim of hardship due to the irregular shape of the lot is supportable under the
variance decision criteria set forth for the Planning Board in Section 20-6. 1 (B)(3)(h) which
states that "....a variance shall be made only when necessary to relieve particular hardships
or extraordinary conditions relating to a specific property, and when the strict application of
a particular regulation would result in peculiar and exceptional hardship upon the owner of
such property as. distinguished from reasons of convenience, profit or caprice.
• In order to provide a buffer between the new home and the abutting commercial properties it
would be appropriate to require a continuation of the six feet high landscaping screen or an
equivalent buffer along the Manor Lane property line (with the exception of the driveway
entrance).
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the variance request be approved with the following conditions:
(1) An opaque landscape hedge or an equivalent buffer of a minimum 6 feet in height shall be
planted along the Manor Lane property line from the northern edge of the room addition to
the south boundary of the property.

Re: 7630 SW 63 CT.
To whom it may concern,
I am applying for a Variance Permit, for the above stated property for the
following reasons:
I . All the houses in that neighborhood face either east or west.
2. The streets were closed off from the commercial area with traffic features.
3. There is continuous traffic on Manor Lane.
4. The home would be of a triangular shape and be out of place in the
neighborhood.
5. The home would be set back only 7 feet from its rear neighbors pool.
6. Pedestrians coming in and out of the home would walk into a commercial
road with heavy traffic, therefore endangering them.
If you have any questions feel free to contact me.
Thank Y

July 11, 2006
Page 2 of 3
At this time, Mr. Morton swore in the speakers.
Action: Mr. Morton read the item into the record. Mr. O'Donniley presented the staff
report. He stated that the applicant is requesting approval of a variance from Section 20-
305(E) of the Land Development Code to permit a new single family home to be built on a
lot with lot frontage of 32.9 feet vs. a required 75 foot setback in an RS -3 Single Family
Residential zone. The purpose of the variance request is to orient the front of the house
toward a residential street as opposed to a street with commercial properties.
He indicated that the applicant's property is a triangular shaped lot with a lot area of
12,314 sq.ft. Furthermore, the applicant is proposing to construct a two -story single family
home. The property is a corner lot facing two streets, Manor Lane and SW 63 Court, which
is closed at Manor Lane.
In addition, Mr. O'Donniley provided the following staff observations:
• The subject property has its legal address on SW 63rd Court. The applicant correctly states that
using Manor Lane as the frontage of the property would be hardship due to the volume of
traffic on Manor Lane and the commercial nature of the uses directly across the street. The
applicant also states that creating a house shaped to match the irregular shape of the parcel
(triangular) would be out of character with the homes on SW 63rd Court. LDC Section 20-
3.6(F)(4) would resolve the issue in favor of the orientation toward SW 63rd Court.
The applicant's claim of hardship, due to the irregular shape of the lot is supportable under the
variance decision criteria set forth for the Planning Board in Section 20- 6.1(B)(3)(h) which
states that "....a variance shall be made only when necessary to relieve particular hardships or
extraordinary conditions relating to a specific property, and when the strict application of a
particular regulation would result in peculiar and exceptional hardship upon the owner of
such property as distinguished from reasons of convenience, profit or caprice.
• In order to provide a buffer between the new home and the abutting commercial properties it
would he appropriate to require a continuation of the six feet high landscaping screen or an
equivalent buffer along the Manor Lane property line (with the exception of the driveway
entrance).
Recommendation:
Staff recommended that the variance request be approved with the following conditions:
(1) An opaque Iandscape hedge or an equivalent buffer of a minimum 6 feet in height
shall be planted along the Manor Lane property line.
Applicant: Mr. Hector Capo
Mr. Capo explained that residents coming in and out of the home would potentially walk
on the commercial area of Manor Lane which has a lot of continuous traffic. Additionally
all the houses in that neighborhood either face east or west and granting this request would
enable the house to face SW 63 Court, a residential oriented street.
Chair Morton opened the public hearing.
Speakers:

Harvey Bernstein 7661 SW 65 PI Neutral
Planning Board Meeting
July 11, 2006
Page 3 of 3
Mr. Bernstein stated he thought the house being proposed with regards to the design, was
not in character with the existing houses in the neighborhood. However, he did agree with
the variance because he felt that was the only thing that would make sense for that irregular
lot. He also expressed concern about the grotto/ depression in the back of the house and
that in the past it has been filled with standing water.
David Tucker, Jr. 6556 SW 78 Tern Opposed
Mr. Tucker indicated he did not agree with the variance or the proposal for the house.
Bob Welch
Opposed
Mr. Welch stated that the house the applicant is proposing to build is a type of mini
Mcmansion that will stick out in the neighborhood and be out of character with the
surrounding homes.
Chair Morton closed the public hearing.
At this time, the Board and staff discussed the application. Mr. Comendeiro inquired about
the procedures for the neighbors to voice their opinion about the design of the house. Mr.
O'Donniley replied that the ERPB has specific authority over the site plan and they will
review all the plans. Mr. O'Donniley noted that the residents can provide a letter to the
Environmental Review and Preservation Board (ERPB) voicing their opposition of the
design of the house since there is no public hearing at ERPB.
Motion: Mr. Comendeiro moved to recommend approval of the application.
Ms. Yates suggested that before the City Commission hears the variance request, the
ERPB should review the plans of the residence. Mr. Comendeiro agreed with Ms. Yates
suggestion and withdrew his previous motion.
Motion: Ms. Yates moved to add condition in which ERPB will conduct its review and
analysis before the variance application proceeds to the City Commission. Mr. Comendeiro
seconded the motion.
Vote: Ayes 5 Nays 0
Mr. Comendeiro proceeded to make a main motion for the variance request.
