Appeal From Administrative Decision
This case was continued from the meetings of September 3, November
5 and December 3, 1999, and February 4, 2000.
The applicant is appealing a June 16, 1999 administrative decision
made by the Planning and Zoning Director. The administrative
decision states that a lawsuit filed by the adjoining property, The
Sterling House Condominium Inc., does not trigger the stay provisions
of the Miami Beach Code Section 118-263(a) and therefore the time
frames prescribed by the respective orders of the Design Review Board
and Board of Adjustment, for a full building permit, still apply. The
applicant contends that the filing of a lawsuit, by the adjoining
property, is sufficient to trigger the stay provisions of the Miami Beach
City Code.
