Dear Miami-Dade County Parks,
Section 8-107(G) of the Coral Gables Zoning Code states that “All demolition permits
for non-designated buildings and/or structures must be approved by the Historic
Preservation Officer or designee. The approval is valid for eighteen (18) months from
issuance and shall thereafter expire and the approval is deemed void unless the
demolition permit has been issued by the Development Services Department. The
Historic Preservation Officer may require review by the Historic Preservation Board
if the building and/or structure to be demolished is eligible for designation as a local
historic landmark or as a contributing building, structure, or property within an
existing local historic landmark district. This determination of eligibility is
preliminary in nature and the final public hearing before the Historic Preservation
Board on Local Historic Designation shall be within sixty (60) days from the Historic
Preservation Officer determination of “eligibility.” Consideration by the Board may
be deferred by mutual agreement by the property owner and the Historic Preservation
Officer. The Historic Preservation Officer may require the filing of a written
application on the forms prepared by the Department and may request additional
background information to assist the Board in its consideration of eligibility.
Independent analysis by a consultant selected by the City may be required to assist in
the review of the application. All fees associated with the analysis shall be the
responsibility of the applicant. The types of reviews that could be conducted may
include but are not limited to the following: property appraisals; archeological
assessments; and historic assessments.”
Therefore, please be advised that after careful research and study of our records and
the information you presented the following information has been determined:
The two bathhouse structures, located at the property 9610 Old Cutler Rd,
legally described as Lot 3 thru 6 less 2 acres east of meander line and less
north 200 feet Lot 3, 21 acres northwest quarter of southeast quarter east of
Country Road; 38.85 acres, northeast quarter of south quarter led north of
200 feet od beginning 1195.74 feet of Center line Cutler road along north
line of south half of section; 19.25 acres, fractional northwest quarter of
northwest quarter or 1847 survey, Avocado Land Subdivision, according to
the Plat thereof, of the Public Records of Miami-Dade County, Florida, does
not meet the minimum eligibility criteria for designation as a local historic
landmark. Therefore, the Historical Resources staff will not require review
by the Historic Preservation Board if an application is made at this time for
a demolition permit.
Please note that, pursuant to Section 14-107.5(b)(15) of the Coral Gables Zoning
Code, this determination does not constitute a development order and is valid for a
period of eighteen (18) months. In the case where the Historic Preservation Officer or
designee determines that the property does not meet the minimum eligibility criteria
for designation, a permit for the demolition of the property must be issued within the
eighteen-month period.
Upon expiration of the eighteen-month period, you will be required to file a new
application. Any change from the foregoing may be made upon a demonstration of a
change in the material facts upon which this determination was made.
If you have any further questions concerning this matter, please do not hesitate to
contact this office.
Sincerely
Anna C. Pernas
