FREQUENTLY ASKED
QUESTIONS
WHAT IS THE EVALUATION AND
APPRAISAL REPORT (EAR)?
The
Florida Growth Management Act requires
Comprehensive Neighborhood Plans
throughout the state to be assessed
periodically to determine how the plans are
working and what areas need updating.
The EAR process is not a revision of
the zoning ordinance.
Revision of the zoning ordinance was
recently completed by the adoption of the
Miami 21 Code in October of 2009.
This assessment process is known as
the Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR)
and must be completed every 7 years to
assess the City’s progress on areas
including, but not limited to, Public Works,
Capital Improvements, Transportation and
Housing. The EAR process allows
us to collect valuable information to revise
the City’s Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan
to better address the City’s needs.
WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THE PUBLIC
MEETINGS?
Public input is an
important component of the evaluation
process and is where city planners learn
about major issues facing your
neighborhoods. Your participation in this
process will lead to a thorough evaluation
and serve as a base towards updating the
Comprehensive Plan to meet the needs of our
residents.
WHY SHOULD I PARTICIPATE?
The EAR is your opportunity to
share your knowledge and concerns about the
City’s needs. This is also an
opportunity to learn more about the issues
that shape the City’s future and to better
understand the planning process.
WHEN WILL THE MEETINGS HAPPEN IN
MY AREA?
Meetings are being
held throughout the City to facilitate your
participation. All City residents, property
and business owners are encouraged to
participate. Although meetings are
scheduled by District, participants are
encouraged to attend any and all meetings
that are most conveniently located to the
participant. Everyone is welcome at
all meetings.
