C4L-Ref- Planning - Moratorium To Issuance Of Orders On Single-Family Homes -BoMIAMI BEACH
OFFICE OF THE MAYOR AND COMMISSION MEMORANDUM
To: Jimmy Morales, City Manager
From: Matti Herrera Bower, Mayor
Date: July 9, 2013
Re: Referral to Planning Board
Please place on the July 17, 2013 agenda of the Miami Beach City Commission a referral to the
next Planning Board meeting an ordinance amendment that places a six-month {6) moratorium
limited to the issuance of orders or permits for the substantial or total demolition of architecturally
significant single-family homes.
I believe this moratorium is important to allow for the review of current and proposed ordinances
that would protect against demolition of our historic single family home neighborhoods, while
allowing time for further incentive programs to be developed in order to preserve more of our
existing housing stock.
Should you have any questions, please contact Gabrielle Redfern at extension 6157.
Thank you.
