urban development boundary

While legislation in Tallahassee threatens to preempt Miami-Dade's local rules on development, the county is asking residents how they see things growing.

Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava said Kelly Tractor's plan to build new headquarters on 246 acres outside the urban development boundary failed to protect valuable wetlands and circumvented planning rules designed to protect them.

County Commissioners agreed to amend its growth plan to allow Kelly Tractor to build outside the urban development boundary put in place decades ago to protect wetlands and farms.

A proposal to build a sprawling heavy equipment depot on protected wetlands outside Miami-Dade County’s urban development boundary, and adjacent to some of its most flood-prone neighborhoods, is drawing opposition from county planners and environmentalists.

Miami-Dade County's contentious recent urban boundary move will block an old slough — a shallow channel that cut through the rock ridge in South Dade to deliver 'lifeblood' freshwater from the Everglades to Biscayne Bay and seen as key to wetlands restoration, environmentalists and planners say.

Overturning the veto clears the way for warehouses on coastal land targeted for Everglades restoration. South Florida water managers have been asked to intervene.

A new vote and another public hearing on a proposal to move the urban development boundary to make way for a 380-acre warehouse logistics center is scheduled for Nov. 1.
