An Ordinance of the City Commission approving the vacation of a public alleyway pursuant to Zoning Code Article 14, “Process,” Section 14-211, “Abandonment and Vacations” and City Code Chapter 62, Article 8 “Vacation, abandonment and closure of streets, easements and alleys by private owners and the city; application process,” providing for the vacation of the forty-five (45) foot wide alley which is approximately one hundred twenty-five (125) feet in length lying between Tract A and Lots 27 through 31, Block 156, Riviera Section Part 8 (1250 S Dixie Highway), Coral Gables, Florida; providing for a repealer provision, severability clause, and providing for an effective date (Legal description on file). (02 11 26 PZB recommended approval, Vote: 5-0)

The City Commission of Coral Gables has approved an ordinance to vacate a public alleyway. This alleyway is approximately 125 feet long and 45 feet wide, located between Tract A and Lots 27 through 31, Block 156, in the Riviera Section Part 8 area, near 1250 S Dixie Highway. The approval means the city will no longer maintain this alley as public right-of-way. This project involves the legal process of vacating the alley, which may lead to future development opportunities for the adjacent properties. The next steps would involve the legal description being finalized and the ordinance taking effect. Contractors and service providers interested in potential future work related to the adjacent properties should monitor future development proposals in this area. Early engagement with property owners could provide an advantage as plans for these lots are considered.

An Ordinance of the City Commission of Coral Gables, Florida providing for text amendments to the City of Coral Gables Official Zoning Code by amending Article 5, “Architecture,” Section 5-500, “Roofs,” to clarify roof design standards by incorporating a combination of pitched and flat roof forms and to establish that roof designs proposed as entirely flat require review and approval by the full board of architects; to amend Section 5-502, “Flat Roofs,” to clarify the review and approval of trellis structures on roof decks; to remove Sections 5-503 and 5-504 and renumber subsequent sections; to delete outdated parapet height provisions in flood hazard districts; and providing for a repealer provision, severability clause, codification, and providing for an effective date.

The City of Coral Gables is planning changes to its Zoning Code, specifically Article 5, which covers architecture. These proposed amendments aim to clarify standards for roof designs, including how pitched and flat roofs are combined. The changes will also establish a review process for entirely flat roof designs by the board of architects and clarify the approval process for trellis structures on roof decks. Outdated rules about parapet heights in flood hazard areas will be removed. This item has been approved by the City Commission. The work ahead involves updating zoning code language and potentially architectural review processes. This early stage offers opportunities for legal services specializing in zoning and code amendments, as well as engineering and architecture firms that can advise on compliance and design standards. Reaching out now allows businesses to understand the upcoming regulatory landscape and prepare for potential future development projects that will need to adhere to these new rules.
