Council approves rezoning at 823 H Northwest to permit triplex
Summary
Council approved rezoning of 823 H Northwest, a lot previously slated for demolition after a fire, after a local buyer demolished the burned structure and proposed building a triplex; staff recommended RM2 (multifamily) zoning and the council approved.
The Miami City Council approved a rezoning request for 823 H Northwest to permit construction of a triplex. Staff told the council the property had been on the city’s demolition list after a fire; a buyer identified in the transcript as Zach purchased the lot, removed the burned structure and proposed building three units, prompting staff to recommend rezoning from single‑family to RM2.
Staff said the lot ‘‘was on our demo list’’ after the owner defaulted on previous obligations and that the buyer "has torn it down," clearing the way for redevelopment. Staff described the lot as still being cleaned up but suitable for a triplex if rezoned.
Council members moved and recorded approval during the meeting. The rezoning clears the regulatory step needed for the buyer to apply for permits for a three‑unit development; staff will proceed with permitting and utility coordination under the RM2 designation.
