Planning & Zoning Meeting

The City of Hialeah Planning and Zoning Board held a meeting on September 23, 2026, addressing several land use and zoning matters. Key procurement-related discussions included a proposed small scale future land use map amendment and rezoning for a property at 1 East 52nd Place to allow development of a one-story professional office building for a psychologist's office. The applicant agreed to conduct a traffic study and the item was tabled pending its completion. Another significant item was the petition to close and abandon a portion of an alley between East 26th and East 27th Streets to facilitate redevelopment and expansion of a surface parking lot for Hialeah Hospital; this was approved with conditions. Additionally, a variance permit was approved for a multifamily residential development at 533 East 22nd Street, allowing reduced setbacks and increased lot coverage. The board also approved a final decision to legalize an existing aluminum terrace with reduced rear setback at 7228 West 30th Lane, subject to conditions. Several public comments expressed concerns about traffic, neighborhood impact, and zoning changes. The meeting concluded with procedural updates and announcements about future meeting locations.
