<br />
<br />City of Tamarac Commercial Blvd
<br />Landscaping Improvements - The
<br />City of Tamarac engaged Miller Legg to
<br />provide landscape architectural and
<br />survey services for the existing medians
<br />along 1.70 miles of West Commercial
<br />Blvd in Broward County between North
<br />Pine Island Road and Sawgrass
<br />Expressway. In addition to landscape
<br />architecture, a certified arborist report
<br />and survey (including vacuum
<br />excavations) services, the Miller Legg
<br />team provided lighting and electrical
<br />services, irrigation design, permitting,
<br />and construction administrative services.
<br />Coordination efforts with multiple
<br />agencies, such as the Florida Turnpike
<br />Authority (FTE) and the South Florida
<br />Water Management District (SFWMD),
<br />is included in the project scope. Specific
<br />services for these roadway
<br />improvements entailed providing a
<br />specific purpose survey showing only
<br />above-ground improvements, compiling a
<br />30% conceptual landscape and lighting
<br />plan, and providing 100% construction
<br />documents for irrigation, landscape,
<br />hardscape, lighting and electrical, and an
<br />arborist assessment.
<br />
<br />City of Tamarac East Side Parks
<br />Feasibility Study - The Miller Legg
<br />team conducted a needs assessment and
<br />feasibility study to address potential new
<br />recreation facilities in the eastern
<br />portion of the City of Tamarac. The
<br />scope included comprehensive
<br />recreation planning based on research of
<br />existing facilities and programs,
<br />recreation opportunities and a needs
<br />assessment specific to the study area
<br />demographics in order to develop
<br />programming, budget and operational
<br />needs for the proposed improvements.
<br />Community input was gathered via
<br />various survey platforms and City staff
<br />and public workshops scheduled to
<br />refine recreation needs and desires. The
<br />final deliverable was a Feasibility Study
<br />which contained a 10-year capital
<br />improvement plan for the
<br />implementation of the proposed
<br />improvements and acquisitions, an
<br />analysis of funding opportunities and a
<br />narrative report to outline the process
<br />and results.
<br />
<br />City of Tamarac University Drive
<br />Landscaping Improvements - Miller
<br />Legg is providing landscape architecture,
<br />hardscape, and irrigation design,
<br />permitting, specific purpose survey of the
<br />existing medians, utility coordination,
<br />utility designation, and construction
<br />administrative services for improvements
<br />to the existing system of medians on
<br />University Drive between NW 78th
<br />Street and Southgate Blvd. in the City of
<br />Tamarac. Certified Arborist services may
<br />also be included for tree analysis,
<br />removal and relocation needs.
<br />Coordination with numerous agencies
<br />including FDOT, SFWMD and the City
<br />of Tamarac will also be performed. The
<br />project has received funding from an
<br />FDOT Grant and included creation of
<br />MMOA (Maintenance agreements)
<br />between the City and FDOT. Miller
<br />Legg worked consistently with both the
<br />City of Tamarac and FDOT to meet the
<br />strict deadlines to receive this additional
<br />funding.
<br />
<br />City of Fort Lauderdale Las Olas
<br />Streetscape Design - As a
<br />subconsultant to The Corradino Group,
<br />Miller Legg has provided various
<br />landscape architecture services for the
<br />Las Olas Streetscape Project. The
<br />project spans eastward from Andrews
<br />Ave. and cuts through four (4) distinct
<br />districts along Las Olas Boulevard
<br />including Downtown Las Olas, The
<br />Historic Shops, Colee Hammock, and
<br />The Isles. Each area has been designed
<br />to retain its individual identity, while
<br />simultaneously being part of a cohesive
<br />thoroughfare design between Downtown
<br />Fort Lauderdale and The Beach. Miller
<br />Legg was responsible for the planting
<br />design along the corridor which was
<br />entirely composed of native and Florida
<br />Friendly species to create a pedestrian
<br />friendly environment accenting each area
<br />along Las Olas Boulevard. Miller Legg
<br />also provided placemaking and
<br />programming services, for which the
<br />designers created parklets, plazas, and
<br />iconic hardscape elements with water
<br />features and public art installations that
<br />work as resting places and wayfinding
<br />spots. These systems incorporate such
<br />slogans as “Meet me at Las Olas”
<br />“Colee Hammock” and “The Isles” in the
<br />hardscape to promote wayfinding and
<br />create an “Instagram-able” moment.
<br />Overhead shade structures were also
<br />designed to help with wayfinding through
<br />decorative elements subtly depicting the
<br />initials corresponding to each area (eg.
<br />“HSLO” for Historic Shops Las Olas).
<br />Miller Legg's scope included
<br />programming the pedestrian areas along
<br />the corridor which integrated hardscape
<br />design, seating design, and open space
<br />utilization. The firm assisted with
<br />multiple public outreach efforts including
<br />meetings with homeowner association
<br />groups. Miller Legg surveyors used 3D
<br />laser scanning equipment to collect and
<br />process LiDAR data in preparation for
<br />project conceptual design data needs.”
<br />
<br />City of Homestead Biscayne
<br />Everglades Trail Western
<br />Expansion Feasibility Study - Miller
<br />Legg was retained to conduct a feasibility
<br />study to assist the City of Homestead in
<br />determining the preferred route and trail
<br />design for the alignment of the Western
<br />Extension of the existing Biscayne
<br />Everglades Greenway Trail (BEGT). The
<br />Study Area is from the C-103 Canal
<br />Crossing at East Mowry Drive to the
<br />192nd Ave. intersection with West
<br />Mowry Drive. Miller Legg's scope
<br />comprises compilation of an existing
<br />conditions inventory, preparation of a
<br />matrix of criteria to use in the evaluation
<br />of the potential trail alignments,
<br />preparation of various preliminary
<br />alignment alternatives with Opinions of
<br />Probable Cost, development of a
<br />preferred alignment with location, typical
<br />design, proposed enhancements, right of
<br />way/property issues associated with
<br />implementation, followed by creation of
<br />the Feasibility Report for presentation to
<br />the City Council.
