Regulating use is an important part of any zoning code.
Miami 21 Zoning Code prioritizes building
form (shape and bulk) over the regulation of use to
allow for mixed-use development.
In T5 zones, the emphasis is on limited mixed-use
and multi-family residences. T5 creates a small town
centre feel and encourages pedestrian activity with
options for tourist-driven businesses and small lodging.
Restricted (R) single family,
ancillary units, two family,& multifamily residences Limited (L)same as above, and limited commercial, office, lodging, & community centres Open (O)additional lodging and entertainment establishments permitted
