COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT

The following summaries were generated by AI from the official documents linked below. They may contain errors. Please refer to the original documents for authoritative information.

Proposal

The applicant proposes to amend the Land Development Regulations and Comprehensive Plan to increase the floor area ratio (FAR) from 2.0 to 2.5 for oceanfront properties within the Miami Beach Architectural District that are greater than 100,000 square feet and have an existing contributing building. This would allow approximately 66,418 additional square feet of floor area for the Raleigh Hotel project site, which includes three contributing buildings.

From the Letter of Intent

The applicant seeks to amend the City's Comprehensive Plan to increase the maximum allowable Floor Area Ratio (FAR) from 2.0 to 2.5 for their oceanfront property containing three historic hotels. This would facilitate redevelopment of the Raleigh, Richmond, and South Seas Hotels with a new residential tower, while preserving and restoring the historic buildings.

  • Increase maximum FAR from 2.0 to 2.5 for RM-3 oceanfront lots greater than 100,000 square feet with existing buildings as of January 1, 2026
  • Add two additional floors to the residential tower
  • Create enclosed program space within the pavilion
  • Expand programmatic space within the South Seas and Richmond structures
  • Historic preservation and restoration of all three hotel buildings
