Planning & Zoning Meeting 9-9-26

The City of Hialeah Planning and Zoning Board held a meeting on September 9, 2026, addressing several zoning and land use applications. Key procurement-related discussions included a small scale future land use amendment and rezoning request for 1 East 52nd Place to allow redevelopment into a one-story office building for a psychology practice; this item was tabled to a future meeting due to a lack of full board presence. Another significant item was an amendment to a previously approved multifamily residential development at 3011 East 8th Avenue, reducing the building from four to three stories and units from 18 to 14, which was approved with conditions. The board also approved a variance permit for subdividing a property at 981 East 13th Street into two substandard lots for duplex construction. A parking variance request for a fireworks retail and wholesale business at 2122-2124 West 62nd Street was approved with conditions, including parking management during peak sales periods and compliance with fire safety regulations. A variance permit to legalize an oversized carport at 4698 East 9th Court was denied, with the applicant opting to table the item indefinitely to work on modifications. Lastly, a parking variance and business tax receipt waiver request for 205 West 22nd Street was denied due to insufficient parking and prior revocation of business licenses related to illicit activity. The meeting concluded with reminders about upcoming memorial events for first responders.
