You must have the following documents completed and ready for review during your Pre-application meeting with the Planning department:
1) Letter of Intent
2) Analysis of proposed zoning change. This must address how your proposal meets criteria of Miami 21, Article 7, Section 7.1.2.8 (a and f)
3) If you are applying for a Future Land Use Map (FLUM) amendment, address how your proposal is consistent with the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan (MCNP)
4) Zoning map of the surrounding area (half-mile radius from property).
5) FLUM of the surrounding area (half-mile radius from property).
- After you've been pre-screened, you'll hear from the planner who has been assigned to analyze your submittal. They will conduct a site visit and request any additional information needed (i.e. traffic study, etc.).
- Planning staff will finalize their analyses and batch stamp documents for public hearing. NOTE: Planners cannot assign hearing dates.
- Only individuals who have documents with a "Staff Review Complete" stamp through ePlan may request a hearing with Hearing Boards.
- Contact Hearing Boards staff at 305.416.2030 to request an appointment to review your stamped documents and receive additional information.
