PASSED AND ADOPTED this 29th day of May ATTEST: ~rf~ CITY CLERK APPROVED AS TO FORM & LANGUAGE & FOR EXECUTION $-~~ DIll CITY OF MIAMI BEACH COMMISSION ITEM SUMMARY ~ ~ Condensed Title: A resolution of the Mayor and City Commission of the City of Miami Beach approving the addition of the Cherokee Avenue sea wall repair and street end enhancement, as Amendment No.1 to the scope of services for Reynolds, Smith and Hills, Consultant for the La Gorce Right of Way Improvement Project, and further appropriating $45,000 from 1999 General Obligation Bond funds allocated for sea wall repair and street end enhancement to the La Gorce Right of Way Improvement Project. Issue: Should the seawall repair at Cherokee Avenue be done in concert with planned La Gorce Neighborhood enhancements. Item Summary/Recommendation: A component of the November 1999 General Obligation Bond for Right of Way (ROW) Improvements was the repair, replacement and enhancement of seawalls adjacent to the City's ROW street-ends. The funding citywide for this project is $4.8 million. In the La Gorce Neighborhood ROW Improvements to the City's infrastructure are planned for Cherokee Avenue, the location of a ROW street-end/seawall. In order to be efficient, the design and construction of the seawall and other enhancements will be included in the scope of the La Gorce Neighborhood Consultants, Reynolds, Smith and Hills, Inc. The Cherokee Avenue street-end was originally set aside $85,000 from the GO Bond seawall funding for the repair of seawall as well as enhancements to promote the use of the street-end as recreational boat launch. However, during the Community Design Workshops for the La Gorce Neighborhood ROW Improvements, a majority of residents preferred a minimal seawall repair and above ground enhancement that opened up the view corridor but that would not promote recreational use of the street-end. For this reason, the funding to be added to the ROW program for the Cherokee Avenue seawall design, repair and enhancement has been reduced to $45,000. Advisory Board Recommendation: The G.O. Bond Oversight Committee approved a motion to recommend adding this work to the Agreement with Reynolds, Smith and Hills, Inc at their meeting on May13, 2002.
