City of Hialeah - Planning & Zoning 10/14/2026

The City of Hialeah Planning & Zoning Board met on October 14, 2026. The board unanimously approved a recommendation for a small-scale future land use map amendment for a property at East 33rd Street and East 9th Avenue, changing its designation from low-density to medium-density residential. The applicant proposes reusing the existing one-story home as a daycare for up to 20 children, without expanding the structure, and providing six parking spaces, including one accessible space. The recommendation is scheduled for City Council consideration on October 27, 2026.

The board also heard the companion request to rezone the property from R1 to R31 and for a variance reducing an interior side setback from 10 feet to 7.6 feet. The applicant agreed to staff’s proposed conditions, including weekday operating hours of 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., a 20-child maximum, a driveway approach at least 20 feet wide subject to Streets Division approval, and obtaining required permits and licenses. The transcript ends before the board’s vote on this companion request is recorded. No procurement or contract-award activity was identified.
