Miami Beach, FL Zoning

Euclidean-zoning. 38 districts · 12 overlays · 8 applicable state preemptions.

Overview

Code type
euclidean
Naming convention
letter-code

Districts use letter+number codes (RS-1 through RS-4, RM-1/2/3, CD-1/2/3, TC-1/2/3, RPS-1 through 4, MXE, etc.). Numbers within a category are use-type-index (sequential intensity), not lot-size-encoded. 'letter-code' is the best match. Miami Beach (pop 82,031) uses a different code from the City of Miami (Miami 21 transect). Chapter 142 of the Code of Ordinances is the Land Development Regulations governing zoning. Not form-based.

Worth knowing
  • Miami Beach is a separate city from the City of Miami — the two are across Biscayne Bay. The City of Miami uses the Miami 21 transect code; Miami Beach uses Chapter 142 euclidean zoning. Do NOT conflate data sources or GIS endpoints.
  • gis.miami.gov serves City of Miami ONLY. Miami Beach GIS data is available via Miami-Dade County MD_Zoning MapServer layer 2 filtered to MUNICNAME='MIAMI BEACH' at gisweb.miamidade.gov.
  • Miami Beach Chapter 142 dimensional tables for RS-1 through RS-4 and RM-1/2/3 districts could not be retrieved in this research pass due to Cloudflare 403 on Municode and 503 on elaws.us. All dimensional standards are marked partial pending a secondary retrieval pass (Wayback Machine or direct PDF).

State preemptions

FL §166.04151(7) — Live Local Act (SB 102/2023; SB 328/2024; SB 1730/2025)applies
Qualifying condition
Miami Beach pop 82,031 (2024 Census PEP, vintage July 1, 2024); Miami-Dade County pop 2,716,940. Trigger: development ≥40% units affordable at ≤120% AMI on parcels zoned commercial, industrial, or mixed-use. Miami Beach has extensive CD-1/CD-2/CD-3/MXE/TC-1/TC-2/TC-3/I-1 zones that pass the activity-allowed trigger under SB 1730 (2025). Highest allowed residential density in the jurisdiction and tallest building/zoning height within ¾ mile of site govern LLA height entitlement. Historic district height cap: where adjacent to historic districts (Art Deco, MiMo), SB 328 (2024) applies 150% cap rule; SB 1730 reduced search radius to ¾ mile from 1 mile. Miami Beach officials have flagged that SB 1730 may allow LLA projects to demolish commercially-zoned contributing structures without HPB approval — contested.
Source
Census PEP 2024 (population); Fla. Stat. §166.04151(7) (trigger test); Ch. 2024-188 SB 328 (historic district cap); Ch. 2025-172 SB 1730 (¾-mile radius, moratorium ban)
Effect
Preempts use, density, height, and parking minimums for qualifying ≥40%-affordable multifamily projects on commercial/industrial/mixed-use zoned parcels
FL §509.032(7) — Short-Term Rental Preemptionapplies
Qualifying condition
Miami Beach's STR prohibition under §142-1111 predates 2011-06-01 (enacted before the state preemption) and is therefore facially grandfathered under the 'pre-2011 ordinance' exception in §509.032(7). However, a Miami-Dade County court found §142-1111 in conflict with §509.032(7) and unenforceable. Legal status is contested. Pop 82,031 (no population threshold in §509.032(7)). SB 280 (2024) which would have modified STR preemption was VETOED by the Governor on 2024-06-27 and is not in force.
Source
Miami Beach Code §142-1111 (pre-2011 enactment); Fla. Stat. §509.032(7) effective 2011-06-01; County court ruling per search snippets; SB 280 veto record
Effect
State law prohibits municipalities from banning STR duration/frequency; Miami Beach's pre-2011 ordinance is grandfathered in law but contested in court
FL §553.73 — Florida Building Code Preemptionapplies
Qualifying condition
Miami Beach is a Florida municipality subject to FBC preemption. City pop 82,031; no population threshold. FBC is the exclusive statewide building code; local technical amendments require state approval under §553.73(4). Miami Beach's coastal location subjects it to the South Florida Building Code history and FBC High-Velocity Hurricane Zone provisions (Dade/Broward counties). Miami Beach Resiliency Code (2023 update to Chapter 142) governs land use but must comply with FBC for building standards.
Source
Fla. Stat. §553.73; City of Miami Beach Code of Ordinances; Florida Building Commission
Effect
Local building code amendments preempted; FBC (including HVHZ provisions for Miami-Dade) is exclusive
FL §161.053 — Coastal Construction Control Line (CCCL)applies
Qualifying condition
Miami Beach is entirely a barrier island in Miami-Dade County with sandy Atlantic Ocean beach frontage. DEP establishes the CCCL for Dade County; construction seaward of the CCCL requires DEP permit. Virtually all oceanfront parcels in Miami Beach are seaward of or adjacent to the CCCL. This applies island-wide for coastal construction.
Source
Fla. Stat. §161.053; Florida DEP CCCL Program; Miami Beach geographic location as barrier island
Effect
DEP permit required for construction seaward of CCCL; supersedes local approvals on affected parcels
FL §70.001 — Bert Harris Private Property Rights Actapplies
Qualifying condition
Miami Beach is a Florida municipality. Bert Harris applies statewide; no population or district threshold. Any local denial or condition that 'inordinately burdens' a vested property right may trigger compensation claims. Especially relevant given Miami Beach's historic preservation restrictions and coastal development controls.
Source
Fla. Stat. §70.001; statewide applicability confirmed
Effect
Monetary compensation claims available for inordinate burden on existing uses/vested rights; backstop on regulatory takings
FL §163.045 — Residential Tree Removal Preemptionapplies
Qualifying condition
Miami Beach is a Florida municipality. No population threshold. Applies to residential property where a certified arborist or landscape architect documents a hazard tree — local government may not require permit/fee/replacement. All RS districts in Miami Beach are subject.
Source
Fla. Stat. §163.045; statewide applicability
Effect
Local tree-removal permit requirements preempted for documented hazard trees on residential property
FL §419.001 — Community Residential Homesapplies
Qualifying condition
Miami Beach has RS-1 through RS-4 single-family zones and RM multifamily zones. Group homes ≤6 residents must be allowed by-right in any SF zone; 7–14 residents in MF zones with notice/hearing. 1,000-ft spacing rule applies. No population threshold.
Source
Fla. Stat. §419.001; statewide; Miami Beach RS/RM zoning confirmed [§142-71]
Effect
Group homes ≤6 residents: by-right in RS zones; 7–14: in RM zones with hearing; spacing restriction applies
FL §180.191 / SB 180 (2025) — Post-Storm Moratorium Preemptionapplies
Qualifying condition
Miami Beach is a Florida municipality subject to SB 180 (2025), Ch. 2025-190. Trigger: hurricane landfall in Florida — the 2024 hurricane season retroactive trigger applied; statute sunsets 2028-06-30. Miami Beach is coastal and highly exposed to hurricane risk. Prohibits development moratoria and more-restrictive regulations for a fixed post-storm window; prohibits inflated impact fee assessments on replacement structures. 'Per parcel conditional' because the preemption is activated by hurricane landfall event, not constant.
Source
Ch. 2025-190 Fla. Stat. (SB 180 2025); retroactive to 2024 hurricane season; sunset 2028-06-30
Effect
Post-hurricane development moratoria and more-restrictive regulations prohibited; applies through 2028-06-30

Quirks & notes

  • Miami Beach is a separate city from the City of Miami — the two are across Biscayne Bay. The City of Miami uses the Miami 21 transect code; Miami Beach uses Chapter 142 euclidean zoning. Do NOT conflate data sources or GIS endpoints.
  • gis.miami.gov serves City of Miami ONLY. Miami Beach GIS data is available via Miami-Dade County MD_Zoning MapServer layer 2 filtered to MUNICNAME='MIAMI BEACH' at gisweb.miamidade.gov.
  • Miami Beach Chapter 142 dimensional tables for RS-1 through RS-4 and RM-1/2/3 districts could not be retrieved in this research pass due to Cloudflare 403 on Municode and 503 on elaws.us. All dimensional standards are marked partial pending a secondary retrieval pass (Wayback Machine or direct PDF).
  • The RPS district series (RPS-1 through RPS-4) are oceanfront/barrier-island Performance Standard districts unique to Miami Beach, governing Collins Avenue oceanfront parcels in South Beach. They apply design-based standards rather than prescriptive dimensional tables — the code type within these districts is closer to form-based/performance within an otherwise euclidean framework.
  • Short-term rental regulations: §142-1111 prohibits STR <6 months in RS and most RM zones; the pre-2011 ordinance is facially grandfathered under Fla. Stat. §509.032(7), but a Miami-Dade County court found it unenforceable as conflicting with state law. Legal status contested — underwrite as uncertain.
  • Live Local Act (SB 1730/2025) creates a specific tension in Miami Beach: the city's extensive historic districts (Art Deco, MiMo) may lose HPB demolition-review protection for commercially-zoned contributing structures under the LLA 'by-right' pathway — city officials have flagged this as an unresolved conflict. The ¾-mile historic-district height-test radius (SB 1730) governs, not the 1-mile radius from SB 102.
  • Miami Beach's TC-1 North Beach Town Center district (125 ft/12 stories) is the highest-intensity non-historic-district commercial zoning in the city and represents the primary Live Local Act development opportunity zone in North Beach. The North Beach CRA (326.4 acres, adopted 2021) overlays the TC zone area.
  • GIS dataset shows 38 distinct zone codes including RMPS-1 (possibly a variant of RPS-1) and NONE (possibly parcels with no zoning designation). The NONE code was excluded from district enumeration — no regulatory standards exist for unzoned parcels.
  • Resiliency Code Update (2023): Miami Beach adopted a comprehensive resiliency update to its LDR (Chapter 142) that modified FAR in TC districts, introduced first-floor elevation requirements, and updated storm/flood adaptation standards. The exact supplement number was not confirmed in this research pass.
  • Miami-Dade County court ruling on STR ban: local reporting confirms the county court struck down Miami Beach's §142-1111 prohibition as conflicting with §509.032(7). Appeals status not confirmed in this research pass.
