Florida Department of Community Affairs (DCA) has issued a
"Notice of Intent"
for the City of Miami’s EAR-Based Amendments to the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan (MCNP)
on January 7, 2009.
The Notice of Intent addressed the
EAR-based amendments adopted into the Miami
Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan (MCNP) the 13th of
November 2008.
The Department of Community Affairs (DCA) 1/07/09 Notice of Intent appears as a link below on this page and it is entitled DCA Notice of Intent. This posting is in compliance with F.S.163.3184(8)( c)(2).
By State Statute, each City and County in
Florida must adopt a comprehensive plan and also
adopt land development regulations to implement
the comprehensive plan.
The Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan (MCNP) was
adopted as Ordinance 10544 on February 9, 1989
and contains amendments by the City Commission through
November 13, 2008. The purpose of the MCNP is to indicate how the City will meet the
needs of existing and future residents,
visitors, and businesses, while preserving the
character and quality of its communities. MCNP
creates a policy framework that has the effect
of law, to guide all public and private
development decisions in the City. MCNP consists of materials
(written and graphic) that describe the principles, guidelines, and
standards for the orderly and balanced future
development of the City (economic, social, physical, environmental, and
fiscal development).
The Chapters or "elements" of the MCNP encompass
Goals, Objectives, and Policies for future land
use, housing, parks, transportation, capital
improvements, intergovernmental coordination,
etc. Implementation of the MCNP occurs
through City land development regulations such
as the zoning code, detailed housing plans,
historic preservation code, environmental
preservation code, and specific district or
sector plans.
