LTC 436-2021 Better Bus Network Approved by the Board of County CommissionersDocuSign Envelope ID: 2EBDB4FF-FDA9-49C8-9B09-89605749D0F7 NO. LTC # 436-2021 Honorable Mayor Dan Gelber and Members of the City Commission Alina T. Hudak, City Manager October 12, 2021 BETTER BUS NETWORK APPROVED BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS The purpose of this Letter to Commission (LTC) is to update the Mayor and City Commissioners on the County’s Better Bus Network which was approved, as amended, by the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) on October 5, 2021. As previously communicated, the Better Bus Network is a complete redesign of the County bus service led by Transit Alliance Miami (a non-profit organization) and the Miami-Dade County Department of Transportation and Public Works (DTPW). The Better Bus Network intends to maximize ridership potential of the County's bus system by improving access to jobs and services, increasing access to frequent bus service for all users, and using resources efficiently by allocating more service in areas of high demand. While frequency and reliability of County bus service in Miami Beach are expected to improve as a result of the Better Bus Network, the Administration has expressed the following concerns with the plan, as originally proposed by the County: 1. Loss of County bus service in the South of Fifth neighborhood 2. Elimination of Route 115 without providing an alternative transit service for the affected communities 3. Proposed removal/consolidation of bus stops in the City which will increase walking distance for users On September 13, 2021, City staff attended the County’s Transportation and Mobility Planning Committee meeting and stated the above concerns on the record during a public hearing on the Better Bus item. As a result, the County amended the proposed Route 14 to serve the South of the Fifth neighborhood (Attachment A), which amendment was adopted at the October 5, 2021 BCC meeting. City staff is following-up with the County with regard to the locations of the bus stops that will be served in the South of Fifth neighborhood. At the September 17, 2021 City Commission meeting, the Commission discussed the Administration’s oustanding concerns with the Better Bus project and adopted Resolution No. 2021-31866 urging the County to address the City’s concerns. Additionally, at the meeting, Commissioner Steven Meiner and Commissioner Michael Gongora referred items related to the Better Bus Network to the October 29, 2021 Neighborhood and Quality of Life Committee (NQLC) MIAMI BEACH OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER LETTER TO COMMISSION TO : FROM : DATE: SUBJECT: DocuSign Envelope ID: 2EBDB4FF-FDA9-49C8-9B09-89605749D0F7 LTC - Better Bus Network Approved by the Board of County Commissioners October 12, 2021 Page 2 meeting. On September 24, 2021, the City Commission Resolution was transmitted to Miami- Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava, members of the BCC, and the DTPW Director via letter from the City Clerk (Attachment B). The Transportation and Mobility Department will continue to work closely with DTPW staff to address the City’s outstanding concerns with the Better Bus Network.
