Most of the land is zoned for commercial use, the Miami Herald reported. The developer, Retrosource, hopes to zone the residential area as well. Petitions have circulated asking the city council to deny the zoning change.

North Miami councilman Philippe Bien-Aime will reportedly host a town hall meeting to discuss the plan, among other projects, Monday night at 7 p.m. He described the proposed site as a very important area and opposes the plan as presented, the Herald reported. [Miami Herald] — Katherine Kallergis
