REPORT OF PIANNZNG BOAR OF M IAM I SHORES V ILUGE
ON. THE MATTER OF RAISING T"r1M CUBE CONTENT
REQUIRWENTS OF PRIVATE DI ELLINGS.
THE HONORABLE MEKBERs OF THE
COUNCIL OF MIAMI SHORES VILLAGE:
Further in compliance with the Resolution adopted by the
Council of Miami Shores Village at its Meeting of June 1 1939sthe
Planning Board submits as its recommendation the following changes
In the cubical content requirement of private dwellings as set
forth herein and more particularly shown as per the map of Miami
Shores Village attached hereto and marked Exhibit "A"
In making this report, as- directed, the Planner Board
desires to bring to your attention that these recommended changes
are basically the same as had heretofore been submitted; and in
order that you may conveniently consider the efforts of the Plan-
ning Board in this direction; the following outline is made as a
preamble to the recommendations submitted in this report*"
ORDINANCE Number 11 which was adopted May 24! 1932 cre-
ated the original building zones in Miami Shores Village, took
into consideration and made the same a part of that Ord inanee:,the
then existing deed restrictions running with the titles to the
lands in the several zones as defined in. Ordinance Ntmiber llsabove
referred to, and to which reference is now made*'
The Village Council by its Ordinance Mmber 40 dated
January 23; 1936, created the Planning Board which has functioned
since that date when the three original members were appointed;,
to-wit: February 11 1936; After the adoption of Ordinance Number
40, the Planning Board made a careful survey of the then trends of
growth and development within the Village limits preliminary to the
submission of a unifom plan for the development of the Village as
required under the provisions of Ordinance Number 40,and more par-
ticularly Section #12 thereof,in connection with the survey then
so cotd.ucted Due consideration was given to the existing
construction; numerous suggestions by property owners were consider:•
ed and the Planning Board was supported in this work by several
builders and Architects, whose opinions were'of great value"� As a
result of this work, the Planning Board, with the assistance render-
ed by the Village Attorney., submitted "a general plan for the
Village concerning use of land therein for private purposes and
location for private improvements thereon" which plan was adopted
by the Council of Miami Shores Village at its Meeting of January 19,
1937, as is shown by Ordinance Number 52 of that date;
Since the adoption of Ordinance Number 52, above referred
to,. and which Ordinance definitely sets out and defines certain
areas and zones in the Village and further defines by cubical con-
tent requirement the minimum size for private dwellings, which
might be constructed in such respective areas or zones and on a
plot of land of not less than seventy-five feet (75t) frontage and
one hundred feet (1001) in depth (except where special ordinance
might permit otherwise)' there has been no deviation from the re
quirements of the said Ordinance, and there has not been any viola-
tion. or failure of compliance' either wholly or in part; with that
Ordinance that has come within the knowledge or purview of the
Planning Board,
Early in 1937, with new construction increasing rapidly
within the Village' the Council ordered the Planning Board to meet
at least once each week as against the required monthly meeting in
Ordinance Number 40 in order "To dispose of all pending matters"and
the Planning Board was further instructed to hold such other special
meetings "As may be necessary or as circumstances might require",&
This instruction was conveyed to the then Chairman of the Board by
letter of the Village Manager dated April 7s 1937aand since that
date, with but few exceptions, and then only when a quorum could
not be obtained! the Plarm,ing Board has met at least once each week
and has disposed of all matters of routine nature promptly;
Further considering the continued growth and development
of the Village which is indicated by a marked increase in the
•2-
application for building permits, request was made of the Council
to consider an increase and change in the cubical content of prig.
ate dwellings at its Meeting of January 11 1938 and' at that time'
the Council took the request for the increase and change in the
minimum requirements under consideration and appointed a Committee
of three to review the recommendations that had been submitted by
the Planning Board and to report their findings to the Council: On
February 22 19380 the above Council Committee filed its report
recommending basically the elimination of the cube allowance of
attached garages and open porches, The report was received and
filed but no action taken, at that time; Again on March 15, 1938#
further consideration was extended to the Council Committees
Report but no action was taken as it was felt that before any
material change was made in the provisions and requirements of
Ordinance MWber 52, that a Public Meeting might well be held in
order that the property owners of the Village could be heard on
the matter; On August 16; 1938; the Council held a special meet.
ing for the purpose of discussing the proposed increases and changes
In the minimum requirements and a large and representative number
of property owners of the Village were either, present in person; by
proxy or by letter, indicating and expressing their views of the
proposed changes whereupon these matters were all taken under advise-
ment by the Council and considered by it and on October. 4 1938, the
Council Committees' report on the increases in the minimum require.
ments was definitely rejected, In the interim of the adoption of
the original general plan for the Village under Ordinance Ntam+ber 52
of January 19, 1937, and the date on which a proposal for the in.
crease was rejected, to-wit: October 4 1938, and since that time;
the Planning Board and the Building Inspectors Department have
functioned strictly in accordance with the provisions and require-
ments of Ordinance Number 52:
In submitting recommendations for the increase and, change
in the minimum requirements in the size of private dwellings which
may be erected in the respective areas shown as per map of the
u .
Village and attached hereto identified as Exhibit "All, your Plan-
ning Board has undertaken to considers not only the basic and
fundamental principles of Zoning! as they know it, but has also
given due consideration to the elements of .practical operation and
development which must be noted and taken into the general view of
the whole plan and that even though the entire Village area is in
comparison to other municipalities which contain sections of resi-
dential development that approach or equal in size the entire
development in Miami Shores Village, we still have areas which are
most difficult to zone by reason of existing or surrounding con-
struction or other matters which are beyond the control of the
Village authorities# as for example, we would point out to you
1 That, the Village of Miami. Shores is bounded on the
north, west and south either by wholly or partially un.•
developed property, over mh.ich we have no control,
or property which has been developed, in most instances;
on a scale far inferior to any portion of the area
within the Village limits.
2 That the Right of Way'of the Florida East Coast Rail-
way Company presents and makes most difficult a problem
of zoning in the areas adjacent thereto.
3: That certain existing construction built prior to the
Incorporation of the Village, not of a residential use
but located in areas adjacent to or I mediately affect-
ing the surrounding residential sections, is still
another great handicap.
4; That three arterial highways running the entire length
of the Village create a traffic problem that directly
affects zoning especially for a principally residential
area;
It has also been necessary to take into consideration the
limitations and requirements of the lending institutions and the
Federal Housing Administration through whose facilities much of the
development is made possible; and that these institutions have
-4-
4 f
' t
certain requirements which must be met or else the loan limits are
penalized or the entire area immediately affected is removed from
the elligible list of loan locations: With respect to this question,
the Planning Board feels that the Village is most fortunate in that
under present zoning,, the property within the Village is given the
highest loan rating obtainable on property in Dade County and that
there is not, to the knowledge of the Planning Board; any area in
the Village of Miami Shores in which the Federal Housing Adminis-
tration will not guarantee mortgages where the requirements as to
the borrower are acceptable;
herefore, in submitting the recommendations for increases
and changes in the minimum cubical requirements for the construction
of private dwellings under Ordinances presently in force, to-alt:
Ordinances Naber 113 40 and 52, it is the desire of the Planning
Board to make a brief comparison showing the relation of the size
of each zone or area as compared to the whole area under existing
ordinances, to the changes and increases which are now suggested:
The percentages are indicated as follows=

Wle it is our firm and unanimous opinion that the pro-
posed changes and increases as shown herein adequately consider the
development within the Village during the last two years and, likes.
wise; give due consideration to what might reasonably be expected
In the way of further development during the next ones or possibly
two years, we likewise feel that from time to time, the Planning
Board and the Council will find it necessary to consider further
revisions of the building requirements in order that changing con.
ditions can be properly reflected in building requirements'
especially where such a tremendous proportion of the property is
Intended for and adapted to use for private residence purposes
only: It is the further opinion of the Planning Boards and we
feel that the Council will agrees that no plan capable of meeting
or even providing contingently for the changes and conditions that
are bound to be faced in the future is possible of conception at
any given date and that* therefore, these conditions must be pro•
vided for as the circumstances arise but always with a view to
having a reasonably flexible method of operation with minimum re-
quirements always definitely established and firm in their effect.'
The Planning Board pledges its full support to the Council
in the execution of such further Ordinances and changes in the
problem of development as you deem meet and proper:
