BOND, STORMWATER BOND AND WATER AND SEWER BOND FUNDED CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS TO BE IMPLEMENTED THROUGH THE BAYSHORE RIGHT OF WAY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT. issue: I CH2MHilI, and City staff, as the officially approved description of capital improvements to be designed and I I Should the City adopt the Bayshore Basis of Design Report (BODR) prepared by NE Consultant, constructed throu~lh the Bayshore Ricjht of Wa}, Improvement Project? Item Summary/Recommendation: On July 31,2001, the City entered into an agreement with CH2MHilI, the NE Consultant for the Bayshore ROW Improvement Project, to provide urban design, landscape architecture, and engineering services. The NE Consultant and City staff initiated a comprehensive planning process that included a review of historic information, neighborhood site visits, and inter-departmental staff and consultant visioning sessions. The Consultant then developed an initial program of recommended improvements and presented them to staff at a Visioning Session of October 10, 2001. Comments were issued and the BODR refined where necessary. The improvements were then presented to the public at a Community Design Workshop (CDW #1) on December 4, 2001 at Miami Beach Senior High School. Public comment and feedback from this forum was analyzed and incorporated where appropriate in a revised plan, which was presented at a second Community Design Workshop (CDW #2) on February 12, 2002 at Miami Beach Senior High School. In order to address issues raised by area residents, the NE Consultant and City staff initiated a series of visioning sessions with neighborhood representatives. The refined improvements developed from prior research, Community Design Workshops and meetings with residents were presented at Community Design Workshop (CDW #3) on June 11, 2002 at Miami Beach Senior High School. A substantial consensus among residents on the proposed program of improvements was achieved at this meeting. The Consultant then finalized the program of improvements in the BODR, which was carefully reviewed by all applicable City Departments. The next step is for the City Commission to review and approve the BODR, which serves as a basis for the preparation of design drawings for all recommended improvements. Advisory Board Recommendation: The Bayshore BODR will be considered on April 7, 2003 by the G.O. Bond Oversight Committee. Financial Information: Amount to be expended: Source of Funds: Finance Dept.

ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION Adopt the Resolution. ANALYSIS The Bayshore Neighborhood lies geographically in what is considered "Middle Beach". Its boundaries are West 40th Street to the north, Biscayne Bay to the west, Indian Creek Waterway to the east and Dade Boulevard to the south. The Neighborhood also includes the Sunset Islands. On May 16, 2001, the Mayor and City Commission adopted Resolution 2001-24387 authorizing the execution of a contract, pursuant to Request for Qualifications (RFQ) No. 134-00/01, with CH2M Hill (the Consultant) for Planning Phase services for the Bayshore ROW Improvement Project. The total fee for the Planning Phase was $133,174 with $44,391 from General Obligation Bonds, and $44,392 from Series 2000 Stormwater Revenue Bonds, and $44,391 from Series 2000 Water and Sewer Bonds. The Project Kick-off Meeting was held on July 31, 2001. The official onsite reconnaissance meeting with City staff and Program Managers, Hazen and Sawyer, was held on August 15, 2001. Using information gathered from these meetings, the Consultant developed an initial program of recommended Stormwater, Waterline and above ground G.O. Bond improvements. On October 10, 2001, the Consultant presented this program to City staff for comment and further development. On December 4, 2001, this program was presented at Community Design Workshop #1 held at Miami Beach Senior High School. Public comment and feedback from this forum was analyzed and incorporated, where appropriate, into a revised plan. This revised program was presented at Community Design Workshop #2 on January 31, 2002 at Miami Beach Senior High School. Resident comments resulted in the Consultant further Bayshore BODR Apr# 9, 2OO3 Page 2 of 10 revising and supplementing their program of improvements. After review by the Program Managers, City staff and neighborhood representatives, this modified program of improvements was presented at Community Design Workshop # 3 on June 11,2002 at Miami Beach Senior High School. At this meeting, a substantial consensus among residents on the proposed improvements was achieved. On September 3, 2002, the Consultant submitted a draft BODR, the culmination of planning efforts. Several sets of comments were incorporated into the draft by City staff and Program Managers, Hazen and Sawyer. On January 27, 2003 the Consultant submitted the second draft of the BODR. City staff and Program Manager comments were again incorporated. The final BODR was submitted on March 7, 2003. On April 7, 2003, the BODR was presented to the G.O. Bond Oversight Committee. (Due to the printing schedule for the April 9th Commission Agenda, this Commission Memorandum was printed before the item was heard at the G.O. Bond Oversight Committee meeting. If the item is not approved there, it may be withdrawn for this meeting). Upon approval by the City Commission, the BODR will serve as a basis for the preparation of construction drawings for all recommended improvements. BODR HIGHLIGHTS The Consultant separated the Bayshore Neighborhood into 4 separate bid packages based on G.O. Bond line item allocations, Priority Stormwater basins and natural geographical boundaries. They are: Central Bayshore Package A West 40tn Street to the North, Indian Creek and Lake Pancoast Drive on the East; Dade Bird on the South, And Alton Road on the West. Lower North Bay Road Package B North Bay Road from Alton Road on the North; West 20th Street on the South.

The construction budget with contingency is $3,071,419. The four goals of the improvement and three priorities of water lines are summarized in the following table.

Where possible, the Program Managers and CIP staff incorporated resident comments into a revised proposal of improvements. Regulatory issues, the overall goal and purpose of the City Bond programs, geographic limits of the Bayshore Neighborhood, and funding were some limiting factors in the ability to address residents' comments through the proposed improvement plan.

Funding Separated from ROW Project; Sunset 1 and 2: Substantially Complete Sunset 3 and 4: Pending Undergrounding Upon approval of the BODR, the remaining Project sequence includes seventeen months of design and permitting, four months of bidding and award, and twenty four months of construction. The estimated Design start date is Summer 2003. The estimated construction timeline for each of the Bid Packages is as follows: · Bid Package A: January 2005 through January 2007 · Bid Package B: September 2004 through September 2005 · Bid Package C: November 2004 through August 2005 · Bid Package D: March 2005 through November 2005 These estimated time periods take into consideration specific citywide scheduling issues that may change the Project sequence. Further, the schedule is preliminary and may be adjusted. CONCLUSION City staff and the Project Consultant have successfully responded to the challenge of developing a program of improvements that maximizes the available funding, achieves basic infrastructure improvement goals, and enjoys the support of a majority of residents. The process of planning these improvements included extensive feed back from residents and the subsequent modification of initial plans to respond to their concerns. In addition, the process of identifying and prioritizing improvement needs has created a valuable record, which can be used to program further improvements if additional funding becomes available in the future. By approving the BODR, the Commission will officially end the planning process for this neighborhood and finalize the design concept. Formal construction drawings will Bayshore BODR April 9, 2003 Page 9 of 10 commence. An important feature of the BODR approval is that no added input on the concept will be solicited nor changes made unless formal construction design efforts uncover flaws or errors in the concept. Residents will have the opportunity to review construction documents as they reach 60 and 90% of their completion. JMG:RCM:TH:RS:sel RESOLUTION NO.
