The vote was unanimous.

Staff described the site as a 0.34‑acre property in the R‑6 zoning district with existing high‑density multifamily land use. The applicant proposes an 11‑story building with a maximum code‑allowed height of 110 feet, 18 residential units with an average large unit footprint (staff and applicant described units as sizeable—approximately 3,264 sq ft and five labeled “bedrooms” in the plans) and an integrated parking solution with 38 spaces, including stacked mechanical parking and a 24‑7 valet operation. The project includes a 25‑foot front setback, 34% open space, pervious pavers, bioswales/rain gardens and a commitment to 100% Florida native plantings.

Developer representatives said the product is intended as luxury condominiums marketed to buyers seeking a residential, near‑water lifestyle; counsel and team members told the commission they expect a mix of primary and secondary homes rather than short‑term rentals. The team highlighted two community meetings held before the hearing (a Dorset House meeting and a Keystone Point homeowners association presentation) and said they had incorporated neighbor feedback into the design, including a shadow study and traffic/parking planning.

Neighbors and condominium association representatives from adjacent Keystone Towers expressed concerns about parking overflow on the narrow one‑way corridor, construction logistics for heavy equipment and trucks, and long‑term drainage/flooding risk given the site’s proximity to the canal and the preserve. Keystone Towers’ board president and residents requested assurances about construction staging, vibration monitoring and geotechnical safeguards to avoid impacts to nearby buildings.

Applicant and staff responses: the project team explained the foundation method (auger‑cast piles) designed to limit vibration and the intent to stage construction logistics off‑site to avoid lining the street with worker vehicles. The applicant said the project will meet or exceed city drainage requirements by using on‑site retention, pervious surfaces, bioswales and an elevated seawall where required. The applicant also pledged contributions to neighborhood park improvements and to widen the public sidewalk from five to ten feet as part of the proposal.

Commissioners praised the design quality and materials but several asked the applicant to work with staff on final details for stormwater, construction staging, vibration and parking operations. After discussion the commission voted to approve the conditional use permitting recommendation; the project will proceed to DRC site plan review, additional agency review (including Miami‑Dade County engineering), and then city council site plan consideration if it continues to comply with technical requirements.

Commissioners voted 6–1 to defer the application, with Commissioner Seyfried the lone vote against deferral. The applicant’s legal counsel, Joseph Geller of Greenspoon Marder LLP, said the developer will hold at least two community meetings and return with any revisions before the commission or city council review.

The staff report, presented by Debbie Hunt, development services director, describes the proposal as two 2‑story buildings with five units per building, 24.6 feet in height, 16 off‑street spaces, native landscaping commitments and a 100% Florida native vegetation requirement. Staff noted the development satisfies the city’s code provisions for conditional use under the former Neighborhood Redevelopment Overlay (NRO) rules that vest certain projects submitted prior to changes in the land‑use plan. The staff report included projected construction impacts including direct and indirect jobs during construction and estimated annual ad valorem tax revenue.

Neighbors at the meeting objected to removal of three large, century‑plus oak trees and said the revised plan posted two days earlier did not include required community meetings staff and the commission had previously asked for. Multiple residents said the acreage and tree canopy have ecological and neighborhood‑character value that mitigation plantings cannot replicate. Petitioner representatives replied that the developer had reduced the scope from past proposals, changed the design to avoid stacked parking, and was offering 24 new trees on site and, during the hearing, committed to add six more (for a total of 30 new trees) as additional mitigation.

Commission discussion focused on two themes: (1) community engagement and process and (2) site‑specific impacts — particularly trees, drainage and parking. Commissioners and residents recounted a prior planning commission action on a related submittal about a year earlier that included a unanimous recommendation tied to conditions: two community meetings and retention of the three specimen oaks. Several commissioners said that condition had not been met for the current submittal and called the applicant’s timing premature; others pressed staff and the petitioner for clarity about how tree mitigation and any paid mitigation would be applied at the Development Review Committee (DRC) stage.

At the vote the commission approved a motion to defer the item and placed clear direction on the applicant: hold at least two community meetings, provide follow‑up materials addressing tree mitigation and canopy replacement, and coordinate detailed landscaping and stormwater proposals with staff at DRC. The applicant publicly committed to those meetings and to working with staff on mitigation, including the possibility of off‑site mitigation or payment to the city tree fund if required.

The commission did not make a final finding on the conditional use standard, and no site plan approvals were granted; the deferment keeps the application alive but requires further community outreach and DRC level refinements before it can be scheduled again.
