COMMISSION MEMORANDUM NO. 5l.~-o,l
TO:
Mayor Seymour Gelber and
Members of the City Commission
DATE: September 10, 1997
FROM:
Jose Garcia-Pedrosa
City Manager
SUBJECT:
A RESOLUTIO THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF MIAMI BACH, FLORIDA, SETTING A PUBLIC HEARING ON
SEPTEMBER 24, 1997 at 1:45 P.M, TO CONSIDER THE TRAFFIC
MODIFICATION PROPOSAL FOR THE LOWER STREET END OF
NORTH BAY ROAD AT TWENTIETH STREET AND THE ENTRANCE TO
SUNSET ISLANDS 3 AND 4.
ADMINISTRA TION RECOMMENDATION:
The Administration recommends that the Mayor and City Commission schedule a public hearing
on September 24, 1997 at 1 :45 p.m. to consider the traffic modification proposal for the area of
lower North Bay Road at Twentieth Street and the entrance to Sunset Islands 3 and 4,
BACKGROUND:
At the request of lower North Bay Road residents to modify the flow of traffic through North Bay
Road between Twentieth Street and Alton Road at Chase Avenue, several alternatives were
developed. Following previous hearings before the City Commission and numerous meetings
between residents of lower North Bay Road, Sunset Islands 3 and 4 and City staff, a proposal by
the homeowners for traffic modifications in the area has been developed as depicted in the
attached sketch, This proposed traffic modification needs to be presented to all affected parties
including residents of Sunset Harbour, Alton Road and Neighboring businesses,
ANALYSIS:
The estimated cost to implement this conceptual design is $210,000, excluding the cost of the wall
that extends along North Bay Road, proposed by the homeowners, for which a cost estimate cannot
be made until the wall is further designed. Should the Sunset Islands 3 and 4 homeowners desire
to relocate their guardhouse, the estimated cost of $40,000 for this work will be paid for by those
homeowners. Gfthe $210,000 required to implement this project, $35,000 can be paid from water,
sewer and stormwater funds, leaving a balance of $175,000. Funding for the $175,000 shortfall is
available from unallocated bond funds,
CONCLUSION:
The City Commission should schedule the public hearing to consider the residents' proposal for
the lower end of North Bay Road at the entrance to Sunset Islands and the City Clerk should
provide proper,o'ice to all the concerned residents of the scheduled public hearing.

Re: One- \Vaying of the lower portion
Of North Bay Road
Dear Commissioner Kasdin:
As a foHow-up to your previous correspondence concerning the modification of North Bay Road to
one-way operation in the vicinity of20 Street, Mr. James Leone, of my staff has informed me that
this concept has been abandoned by the hom~owners.
It is my understanding the residents of both, Sunset Island 3 and 4, and Nortr.~ Bay Road have agreed
on a closure plan for \vhich they are now investigating funding sources,
Please be advised this department will continue its efforts to assist you and the Miami Beach staff
in regard to direction and procedures the residents need to follow in pursuit of their proposed closure,
If you have any further questions regarding ..the above, please do not hesitate to contact either Mr.
Leone at 375-2094 or myselfat 375-2960.
