Board of Adjustment approves continuances for two appeals, including Collins Avenue and Lincoln Road items
Summary
The Miami Beach Board of Adjustment approved continuances for two pending appeals: a Collins Avenue appeal continued to Oct. 17 and a Lincoln Road Unit 800 appeal that had an initial request for July 30 but whose counsel asked for October; the board approved continuances during the June 6 meeting.
During its June 6 meeting, the Miami Beach Board of Adjustment approved continuances for two pending appeals, moving both matters off the immediate agenda for further work by applicants and counsel. The votes occurred at the Commission Chambers, 1700 Convention Center Drive.
The first continuance concerned an appeal identified as ZBA22-0143125153 (Collins Avenue). Staff said the applicant was negotiating with other parties and requested that the item be continued to the Oct. 17 meeting; the board approved that continuance after a motion and second.
The second continuance concerned ZBA24-0161605 (Lincoln Road, Unit 800). Early in the record the applicant requested a continuance to the July 30 meeting; later, counsel for the applicant, Carter McDowell of Builders and Summer, told the board there was active litigation between parties and asked that the item instead be continued to the Oct. 17 meeting so the litigation could be resolved. The board voted to approve the continuance. The transcript does not explicitly record a separate final approved date for the Lincoln Road item in the motion language; the parties had requested July 30 initially and October 17 in later remarks, and the board approved the continuance at the hearing.
Both motions to continue were moved and seconded from the dais and were approved by voice vote; no recorded nay votes are in the transcript. Counsel stated that litigation was ongoing in the Lincoln Road matter and that co-counsel was handling the litigation. The board noted the dates of future meetings (July 30 and Oct. 17 were mentioned) and confirmed attendance availability for July 30; one member (Mister Nagler) was noted as planning to be out of the country for July 30.
No substantive hearing on either appeal occurred that day; the continuances removed the items from the present agenda so applicants and opposing parties could continue settlement or litigation processes.
