Home Site Will Become Parking Lot

A plan to convert a piece of residential property near South Dixie Hwy. to a parking lot to serve proposed commercial buildings was approved 4-1 by the Coral Gables City Commission Tuesday. Only Commissioner Joe Murphy voted against J. Allen Brown's plan. Brown, a prominent real estate developer, is the owner of the controversial land located on the north side of Menendez, northeast of Rosario. Special Use The move had been unanimously approved previously by the Zoning Board, which recommended that special use of the property be granted. Nineteen objections were received, but the city ruled that 13 of them were from residents who lived more than 1300 feet from the proposed parking lot site and were not to be considered. A public hearing on the proposal was held on Sept. 26. No change in zoning was entailed by the Commission's action. Brown will be allowed to use the area for parking only and may not build anything other than a single-family residence on the property, if he decides to build later. Brown, in making the request, pointed out that his plan was in keeping with the city's off street parking policy.
