11-16-04 Item 11To: Honorable Mayor, Vice Mayor & Date: November 16, 2004 Commission Members m ITEM No. From: Maria Davis 6 s-` Re: Waiver of Plat City Manager J 5837 SW 82 Street RESOLUTION A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR & CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SOUTH MIAMI, FLORIDA, RELATING TO A REQUEST TO ALLOW FOR THE CREATION OF TWO BUILDABLE LOTS AS PERMITTED BY PROVISIONS SET FORTH IN SECTION 20- 4.2(B) OF THE SOUTH MIAMI LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE AND SECTION 28 -4 OF THE MIAMI DADE COUNTY CODE PERTAINING TO A WAIVER OF PLAT FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 5837 SW 82 STREET, SOUTH MIAMI, FLORIDA WITHIN AN "RS -3" LOW DENSITY SINGLE- FAMILY ZONING USE DISTRICT; PROVIDING FOR A LEGAL DESCRIPTION; AND PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE. BACKGROUND: In 2002 the same property was subject to a waiver of plat application which at that time required only administrative approval. The application was for the creation of two parcels each with 75 feet of frontage. The application was recommended for approval by the City Manager and subsequently approved by the City Commission at its meeting on June 4, 2002. The waiver of plat procedure at that time did not require public notice or public hearing. The only criteria was that the new lots should meet the minimum dimensional requirements (frontage /lot size) for the zoning district in which it was located. The applicant in following a routine procedure to record the plat document (replat) with the County, discovered that the frontage of the parent parcel was actual 1.53 feet less than 150 feet. This error was made by the applicant's surveyor who sealed the waiver of plat document. The result is that the County would not accept the replat and one of the two lots actually has a substandard frontage of 73.47 feet. The only way for the applicant to correct the situation is to submit a revised plat and obtain a new waiver of plat approval from the City of South Miami. The revised application includes a variance allowing for the substandard lot to be used as a building site. The waiver of plat procedure in the City's Land Development Code was amended in September, 2002 to require public notice, posting, and public hearings prior to final action by the City Commission. In addition, the revised regulations governing a waiver of plat application requires that the proposal must meet a number of criteria set forth in the Code in order to insure compatibility with the Waiver of Plat — 5237 SW 82 St. November 16, 2004 Page 2 neighborhood. The subject new application will be reviewed based upon the new zoning criteria for judging waiver of plats (see below). APPLICABLE REGULATIONS Land Development Code • Section 20 -3.5 Dimensional Requirements (Attached) • Section 20- 4.2(b) Land Subdivision Regulations (Waiver of Plat) (Attached) Dade County Code - Chapter 28 -4 Subdivision Regulations WAIVER OF PLAT REGULATIONS The Land Development Code specifies that the Planning Board first reviews applications before they go to the City Commission. In addition to having to meet minimum zoning standards, Waiver -of Plat applications are to be reviewed by the Planning Board and City Commission on the basis of neighborhood compatibility. Specifically, three criteria are applied: (a) Whether the building sites created would be equal to or larger than the majority of the existing building sites and of the same character as the surrounding area (this shall be demonstrated using copies of the official plat maps for the subject property and surrounding neighborhood). (b) Whether the building site created would result in existing structures becoming nonconforming as they relate to setbacks and other applicable regulations of these land development regulations. (c) Whether the building site created would be free of encroachments from abutting buildable sites. The City Commission may designate additional conditions in connection with a waiver -of -plat, in order to assure that the proposed subdivision of land conforms to the above requirements. This provision could be used, for example, to ensure the retention of trees on the subject property. ZONING SUMMARY Parent Tract (a) Zoning Designation: RS -3 "Low Density Residential" (b) Use: Single - Family (c) Lot size: 23,116 s.f. Minimum lot size 10,000 s.f. required. (d) Building Frontage: 148.53 feet. Minimum frontage 75 feet required. Parcel "A" (a) Zoning Designation: RS -3 "Low Density Residential" (b) Use: Single- Family (c) Lot Size: 11,808 s.f. proposed. Minimum lot size 10,000 s.f. required. (e) Building frontage: 73.47 feet proposed, Minimum frontage 75 feet required. Waiver of Plat — 5237 SW 82 St. November 16, 2004 Page 3 Parcel "B "• (a) Zoning Designation: RS -3 "Low Density Residential" (b) Use: Single- Family (c) Lot Size: 11,307 proposed. Minimum lot size 10,000 s.f. required. (d) Building frontage: 75 feet proposed, Minimum frontage 75 feet required. STAFF OBSERVATIONS (1) The proposed waiver of plat would create two single residential properties in the RS -3 "Low Density Residential zoning district. Both of the proposed parcels exceed the RS -3 minimum required lot size. However, parcel A will have a substandard street frontage of 73.47 feet, thereby resulting in the second application for a lot frontage variance request. The variance request would essentially be voided if the waiver of plat is not approved. (2). The applicant's submitted conceptual site plan shows the removal of the existing single family home on Parcel "A ". Both parcels would have new single family two story homes. The site plan would need to be adjusted to show the second story with a larger side setback. (3) The property is surrounded by single family homes in the RS -3 zoning use district. (4) An analysis of the size of 66 surrounding lots within the standard 500 foot radius indicates that 87% of the surrounding single family home sites are larger than both of the two parcels being created (A staff produced list and map showing the lot sizes within a 500 foot radius is attached). (5) The new building sites created would not be free of encroachments. The waiver of plat survey shows that the use of the two new lots will require the demolition of all or part of the existing structure, demolition of a wire fence, and the removal of a considerable number of mature trees. PLANNING BOARD ACTION Based upon the staff observations set forth above, the Planning Board at its August 10, 2004 meeting adopted a motion by a vote of 5 ayes 2 nays (Ms. Gibson, Mr. Illas) to recommend denial of the application. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the waiver of plat application be denied. The waiver of plat application does not meet the three basic criteria for judging a request. The lot size of both new building sites is below the standard of being equal to or larger than surrounding single family home sites. In addition the waiver of plat would result in creating a non - conforming condition with encroachments.

Ruiz Location: 5837 SW 82 Street A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR & CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SOUTH MIAMI, FLORIDA, RELATING TO A REQUEST TO ALLOW FOR THE CREATION OF TWO BUILDABLE LOTS AS PERMITTED BY PROVISIONS SET FORTH IN SECTION 20- 4.2(B) OF THE SOUTH MIAMI LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE AND SECTION 28 -4 OF THE MIAMI DADE COUNTY CODE PERTAINING 5837 SW 82 St. October 19, 2004 Page 2 of 4 TO A WAIVER OF PLAT FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 5837 SW 82 STREET, SOUTH MIAMI, FLORIDA WITHIN AN "RS -3" LOW DENSITY SINGLE - FAMILY ZONING USE DISTRICT; PROVIDING FOR A LEGAL DESCRIPTION; AND PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE Action: Mr. Morton read the item into record. Mr. O'Donniley presented his staff report. He stated that in 2002 the same property was subject to a waiver of plat application, which at that time required only administrative approval. The application was for the creation of two parcels each with 75 feet of frontage. The application was recommended for approval by the City Manager and subsequently approved by the City Commission at its meeting on June 4, 2002. The waiver of plat procedure at that time did not require public notice or public hearing. The only criteria was that the new lots should meet the minimum dimensional requirements (frontage /lot size) for the zoning district in which it was located. The applicant in following a routine procedure to record the plat document (replat) with the County, discovered that the frontage of the parent parcel was actual 1.53 feet less than 150 feet. This error was made by the applicant's surveyor who sealed the waiver of plat document. The result is that the City would not sign off on the replat document because one of the two lots actually has a substandard frontage of 73.47 feet. The only way for the applicant to correct the situation is to submit a revised plat and obtain a new waiver of plat approval from the City of South Miami. The revised application includes a variance allowing for the substandard lot to be used as a building site. The waiver of plat procedure in the City's Land Development Code was amended in September, 2002 to require public notice, posting, and public hearings prior to final action by the City Commission. In addition, the revised regulations governing a waiver of plat application requires that the proposal must meet a number of criteria set forth in the Code in order to insure compatibility with the neighborhood. These criteria are: (a) Whether the building sites created would be equal to or larger than the majority of the existing building sites and of the same character as the surrounding area (this shall be demonstrated using copies of the official plat maps for the subject property and surrounding neighborhood). (b) Whether the building site created would result in existing structures becoming nonconforming as they relate to setbacks and other applicable regulations of these land development regulations. (c) Whether the building site created would be free of encroachments from abutting buildable sites. Mr. O'Donniley explained that an analysis of the size of 66 surrounding lots within the standard 500 foot radius indicates that 87% of the surrounding single family home sites are larger than both of the two parcels being created. 5837 SW 82 St. October 19, 2004 Page 3 of 4 He concluded that the waiver of plat application does not meet the three basic criteria for judging a request. The lot size of both new building sites is below the standard of being equal to or larger than surrounding single family home sites. In addition the waiver of plat would result in creating a non - conforming condition with encroachments. Staff recommended that the requested waiver of plat application be denied. At this time, Mr. Morton opened the Public Hearing Applicant: Rick Ruiz Mr. Ruiz explained to the Board that in producing the plat for recording purpose the city assigned surveyor as well as the surveyor of record discovered a discrepancy in the legal description as well as the site based monuments. This discrepancy altered the width of the full frontage from 150 feet to 148.47 feet. The lot affected by the lot frontage requirement of 75 feet that is tract A. Tract B will have no change in lot frontage. Tract A will be 1.53 feet shorter in width but will still be 1,808 square feet larger than the 10,000 required with the RS -3 zoned district. The difference in width for Tract A will still provide a suitable and compatible residence. Speakers: NAME ADDRESS SUPPORT /OPPOSE Butch Paddor 5851 SW 83rd St. Opposed Application Ms. Paddor opposed the application and thought that the proposed sizes for the houses would not be compatible with the other homes in the neighborhood. Yvonne Beckman 5871 SW 83rd St. Opposed Application Ms. Beckman opposed the application and does not want further lot- splitting in the neighborhood. Cathy McCann 5820 SW 87" St. Opposed Application Ms. McCann stated she opposed the application because there was not enough room for two lots on that property. Mary Succar 5837 SW 82nd St. Supported Application Ms Succar (owner of the property in the application) stated that at the time of the waiver of plat back in 2002, there was opposition from the neighbors. Florance Ferre 609 Ocean Dr. Supported Application Ms. Ferre supported the application because she believed that having two homes would increase the value of the neighborhood. Rosario Schrier 5827 SW 82nd St. Opposed Application Ms. Schrier stated she recently bought the house next to the proposed property that requested to be split. She did not support the application. 5837 SW 82 St. October 19, 2004 Page 4 of 4 Eric Johnson 5780 SW 81St St. Opposed Application Mr. Johnson said that he believed that the lot -split would increase slightly the density and also add a potential risk when flooding occurs. Charlotte Dison 8031 SW 58th Ave - - - - - -- Ms. Dison stated she is not opposed to the change but is concerned about increasing density and urged the Board members to consider the impact of lot - spitting on the environment. Victoria Zamorino 5870 SW 82nd St Supported Application Ms. Zamorino supports that application and believes that the proposed properties created would increase the value of the neighborhood. Tina Admiral 5761 SW 82nd St. Opposed Application Yvonne Beckman entered into the record aletter from Ms. Tina Admiral (Ms. Admiral, resident, did not want to speak at the podium) The letter voiced her disapproval of the applications for lot- splitting and variance. W. Mitchell 5911 SW 83rd St. Opposed Application Mr. Mitchell did not agree with the application because the quality of life is diminished as well as the privacy when lot - splitting occurs. Elaine Paddor 5851 SW 83rd St. Opposed Application Ms. Paddor stated she was very pleased when the City Commission voted denial of lot - splitting the Smith Property and did not support the current application for lot- splitting and a possible two -story residence which could be built. Annette Cortese 5908 SW 82nd St. Opposed Application Ms. Cortese was against the application because she believed that lot- splitting causes lack of privacy due to the lots being closer. Thomas Meyer 5837 SW 82nd St. Supported Application Mr. Meyer state that when they purchased the property they had the intention to beautify the land and create two houses that would add value to the neighborhood. From what he had understood the error of not detecting that the parent parcel was actually 1.53 feet less than 150 feet has occurred since 1946. He believes that the situation is a hardship and urged the Board members to recognize that hardship. Mr. Morton closed public discussion.The Board and planning staff resumed discussing the request for waiver of plat. Motion: Mr. Liddy moved to deny the application based on the recommendations by staff. Mr. Mann seconded the motion.
