§ 33-383. Nonconforming uses abandoned or destroyed.
Latest version.
Whenever the Director determines that a nonconforming use, structure or tree has been
abandoned or is more than fifty (50) percent burned, torn down, physically deteriorated,
or decayed, no permit shall be granted for reconstruction that would permit such structure
or tree to violate height limits or use standards of this article. Whether application
is made for a permit under this paragraph or not, the Director, may, by appropriate
action, require the owner of the nonconforming structure or tree to permit the Miami-Dade
County Port Authority at its expense to lower, remove, or mark, or mark and light
such object as may be necessary to conform to these regulations.
