Design Review Board Meeting 7.9.2026

The City of Miami Beach Design Review Board held a hybrid meeting on July 9, 2026, to review multiple design and development projects. Key procurement-related discussions included approval and continuance of design review applications for new construction and renovations, such as a one-story financial institution with drive-through lanes at 1414 Alton Road, a multifamily residential building at 9352nd Street, and a two-story residence on Western Marino Drive with requested variances. The board also reviewed a playground upgrade at South Point Park funded by the 2022 general obligation bond for arts and culture, including new playground equipment and shade structures. Additionally, the board considered an art in public places mural project for the Bay Supermarket in North Beach, approving the selected mural with a recommendation to explore nighttime lighting. Several motions were passed to approve projects with conditions or to continue items for further design revisions, particularly regarding landscaping and architectural details. Variances and waivers related to setbacks, signage, and design elements were discussed and generally supported by staff and the board. The next meeting was scheduled for September 11, 2026.
