Public meeting set up for EAR; public input needed

There are a series of public meetings on the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan presented by the City of Miami. District 2's meeting is at City Hall (3500 Pan American Drive) on Monday, October 25 from 6 to 8 pm.
  
The Florida Growth Management Act requires Comprehensive Neighborhood Plans throughout the state to be assessed periodically to determine how the plans are working and what areas need updating. The Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR) process is not a revision of the zoning ordinance. Revision of the zoning ordinance was recently completed by the adoption of the Miami 21 Code in October of 2009. This assessment process is known as the EAR and must be completed every seven years to assess the City’s progress on areas including, but not limited to, Public Works, Capital Improvements, Transportation and Housing. The EAR process allows us to collect valuable information to revise the City’s Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan to better address the City’s needs.

Public input is an important component of the evaluation process and is where city planners learn about major issues facing your neighborhoods. Related documents may be found here:
