6CITY OF SOUTH MIAMI OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM To: The Honorable Mayor Stoddard and Members of the CitY Commission Via: Steven J. Alexander, City Manager From: Christopher Brimo, AICP ~ Planning Director W Date: November 13, 2013 South Miami t'tftd· iiiir 2001 An Ordinance amending Section 20-4.3(B) entitled AppJicabiJity and Definitions, Section 20- 4.3(1)(1) entitled RS-Single Family Residential Districts, Section 20-4.3(1)(2) entitled RT- Townhouse Districts, and Section 20-4.10 entitled Garage Sale in order to increase the amount of sign age allowed for garage sales. Ii BACKGROUND At the October 1, 1013 City Commission meeting, the Commission directed the Administration and staff to draft appropriate legislation that would allow homeowners having a garage sale to be permitted additional signage associated with their sale. Currently the land development code only permits a homeowner to have one sign per garage sale, to be located on the property where the sale is taking place: The City Commission felt that this did not provide adequate exposure for the particular sale, and requested that they be allowed up to four signs that could be placed at various locations within the right-of-way provided the signs did not obstruct pedestrian access nor impede vehicular visibility. At their November 12, 2013 regular meeting and following a public hearing, Planning Board reviewed. Application No. PB-13-031 and recommended changes to the proposed garage sale sign amendments. The following are the proposed amendments to the current land development code. PROPOSED AMENDMENTS 20-4.3 -Sign Regulations (B) Applicability and Definitions * * * Sign, garage sale.
