7) BOARD MEMBER COMMENTS
Discussion by the Board at the direction of Mr. Bolton.
Mr. Bolton passed information to the Board to be discussed.
Mr. Bolton compared the houses he looked at in Miami Shores and compared them to the Miami
Beach Zoning. 1276 NE 93 Street was the first house he compared. This house meets Miami
Shores and Miami Beach zoning. Mr. Bolton asked Mr. Kendall about the elevated front yard
and how this was not shown on the Site Plan Review by Planning. Mr. Bolton wanted to know if
the Site Plan changed or if this house was built improperly.
Further discussion took place about the drain fields on this property. There is agreement amongst the
board that Site Plan Approval includes drainage. The coverage is at 20 percent and Miami
Beach is 30 percent. There was extensive discussion about the Miami Beach setback.
1298 NE 95th Street at the Bayfront - Mr. Bolton said that the lot coverage is good. He had a
comment to Staff about this property - He asked is that a third floor on the structure? Staff
responds its a landing structure. Mr. Bolton asked about the definition of a third
floor. Discussion took place about a third story on this house.
1420 huge lot. Coverage is 20 percent over the Miami Beach max. Mr. Bolton would like for the
Board to take a look at the plans. It looks like the Miami Beach code would have restricted. Mr.
Bolton finalized his presentation. Mr. Bolton would like for the Board to look at the information
and make suggestions.
The Board continued to discuss these properties regarding additional footage and the flood zone.
Staff would suggests that Mr. Bolton go to the Building Department and take a look at what has been
submitted there. Mr. Bolton would like to see if there is an appetite for this information.
The Board asked about the Air Conditioning units and if they were supposed to make it so that they
are not visible from the street.
The Board is surprised as to how crowded the houses that Mr. Bolton brought forth are. The
massiveness is a concern to the Board. End of discussion.
Comprehensive Plans - Staff informed the Board that Council had approved the hiring of consulting
firm to take a look at the Comprehensive Plans. The amended Future Land Use Map will come
back to the Board for consideration. Which will then go to Council and theoretically approved
and then be submitted to the State.
The Board asked questions. Staff explained the FEMA which created a new flood zone map. In
order to legally appeal those you have to hire a coastal engineer that will generate data and the
data sets. Staff gave explanation to the Board as to the process to follow in order to address this
issue. The study which we are in the process of submitting an appeal will be considered by
FEMA. The Board discussed this appeal and the assignment of flood zones in Central
Shores. The flood insurance rates was discussed by the Board. Staff informed the Board the
Miami Shores was able to achieve a CRS7 from 8 to 7 for the first time since we participated in
the CRS program. End of discussion.
