Where to begin your research
The City of Miami’s interactive mapping guidance describes layers for Miami 21 zoning, future land use and environmental or historic preservation. Those layers offer different kinds of context; one should not stand in for the others.
What the record means
For a proposed redevelopment, record both the current zoning and the stated proposal. Identify the applicable government and ask for the underlying documents before relying on a headline about potential uses.
Questions to ask about a local headline
Is the site inside the City of Miami? Which Miami 21 designation is shown? Does the story concern current rules, future land-use policy or a proposed change?
