P''1`--�` <br />\ t .F L 4 <br />TO: <br />VIA: <br />FROM: <br />DATE: <br />RE: <br />City of Sunny Isles Beach <br />18070 Collins Avenue <br />Sunny Isles Beach, Florida 33160 <br />(305) 947-0606 City Hall <br />(305) 949-3113 Fax <br />MEMORANDUM <br />Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners <br />Stan Morris, City Manager <br />Amy Canales, Planning & Zoning Director <br />June 15, 2023 <br />Amendment to Land Development Code Sec. 265-5, "Definitions" to revisE <br />the definition of the term "Waterfront" <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />Staff recommends approval of this Ordinance. <br />REASONS: <br />Section 265-5 of the adopted Land Development Code of the City contains definitions for the term! <br />that are used throughout the Code. The term "waterfront" contained in Sec. 265-5 of the Code is not <br />fully articulated to define the circumstances that would create "waterfront" conditions. This ordinance <br />proposes a revised definition of "waterfront" that would eliminate ambiguity. <br />The proposed definition for "waterfront" is, "Any lot that is a lot of record as of the date of this <br />ordinance shall be considered a waterfront lot provided it has at least 75% of one lot line at the time <br />the lot became of record, that abuts and is contiguous to any body of water, including creek, canal, <br />bay, ocean, river or any other body of water, natural or artificial, whether said lot line is front, rear or <br />side. The term waterfront shall not include a swimming pool, stormwater management area, or <br />decorative water feature. The benefits, if any, inuring to a waterfront lot are not transferrable." <br />ATTACHMENTS: <br />Ordinance <br />Item Number: 9.A <br />189 <br />
