The Planning and Zoning Board of Hialeah convened on September 24, 2025, to discuss a significant proposal regarding the replacement of an existing aluminum roof. The board ultimately voted to recommend approval of the project, with a preference for a specific option, despite some dissenting votes.
During the meeting, a motion was made to approve the proposal with conditions. The board discussed two options for the roof replacement, with the preferred choice being to replace the existing 256 square foot aluminum roof with a new 560 square foot aluminum roof. This option allows for the existing roof to remain until the necessary building permits for the new roof are obtained.
The board's discussion highlighted the importance of ensuring that the project meets local regulations and standards. After deliberation, the motion to recommend approval with the specified conditions was seconded and put to a vote. The final tally showed four members in favor and two against, resulting in the motion's passage.
The board emphasized that while they have made a recommendation, the final decision rests with the city council, which will consider the proposal in its upcoming meetings. This decision marks a step forward in the ongoing development efforts within Hialeah, reflecting the board's commitment to balancing growth with regulatory compliance.
