# Board of Adjustment Meeting 9.18.2026

The City of Miami Beach Board of Adjustment held a meeting on September 18, 2026, addressing multiple zoning variance requests related to residential properties. Key procurement-related discussions included approvals of variances for construction and modification projects such as elevator height exceptions, after-the-fact mechanical equipment height variances, lot coverage increases for porch extensions, driveway width expansions, and accessory building setbacks. Several motions to approve variances were passed, including for a commercial-grade elevator variance at 5940 North Bay Road, after-the-fact variances for mechanical equipment at 2700 Sunset Drive, and driveway and setback variances at 5451 Alton Road. One variance request for a second-floor addition at 1615 Bay Drive was continued to a future meeting for further design revisions. The board also approved a variance for a two-story accessory building on Isle of Normandy. Staff generally supported the variances, noting compliance with building codes and efforts to mitigate neighborhood impact. No significant opposition from neighbors was reported. The meeting concluded with scheduling the next session for October 16, 2026.
