TO: FROM: SUBJECT: ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION Adopt the Resolution. ANAL YSIS The North Beach Recreational Corridor (NBRC) is part of a series of bicycle/pedestrian/greenway projects to be known as the Atlantic Greenway Network. The Atlantic Greenway Network is made up of two main trail systems; the Beach Corridors running between the erosion control line and the dune system; and the Neighborhood Trails, making east-west and north-south connections through south, middle, and north beach neighborhoods. Individual projects will be constructed to create a continuous trail network allowing for alternative transportation and community enhancement. The North Beach Recreational Corridor Project (NBRC) will create a multi-purpose public access corridor, within a public easement, which traverses along the western edge (upland side) of the sand dunes. The NBRC will be located immediately east of the oceanfront properties between 64th Street and 79th Street in the City. NBRC is a natural progression of pathways and parks for the City based on the success of Lummus Park at South Beach and the Beachwalk project extending to 21st Street. This corridor will serve as a connection to businesses, residential areas, schools, parks, and beaches to promote alternative transportation via bicycling or walking. The City of Miami Beach applied for and received $1,741,000 in federal funding for the construction of the North Beach Recreational Corridor. In order to receive the $1,741,000 in federal funding, the City is required to approve the attached LAP agreement with the Florida Department of Transportation. $670,000 in matching funds has already been appropriated from GO Bond Funds to cover the 33% matching funds requirement. The NBRC will cost approximately 5.4 million dollars. Current funding sources for the project are as follows: GO Bond Funds..........................................................$ 670,000 Transport Enhancement Project (TEP) Funds....................$1,741,000 Housing & Urban Development (HUD) EDI Grant Funds......$ 574,493 American Disabilities Act (ADA) Grant Funds....................$ 107,934 North Beach Quality of Life Funds.................................. $ 78,000 Total Funds ...... ... ..$3,171,427 The NBRC project is currently at 90% engineering plans. It is anticipated that the project will begin construction in summer 2006. Therefore, the LAP agreement must be signed by August 2006, before work commences. CONCLUSION: The Administration recommends that the Mayor and City Commission adopt the attached resolution which requests approving a Local Agency Program (LAP) Agreement with the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) in the amount of $1,741,000 for the construction of the North Beach Recreational Corridor.
