SMITH & ASSOCIATES <br />7777 Glades Road - Suite 410 - Boca Raton, Florida 33434 <br />CONSULTING ENGINEERS - SURVEYORS - UnUTY LOCATORS - GRANT SPECIALISTS <br />January 8, 2014 <br />Ms. Helen Gray, P.E. <br />City Engineer <br />City of Sunny Isles Beach <br />18070 Collins Avenue <br />Sunny Isles Beach, FL 33160 <br />RE: 174th Street Storm Water and Pavement Improvements <br />Dear Ms. Gray, <br />W W W. C R A I G A S M I T H. C O M <br />Per our meeting with Elka Linton - Dorsett and Bill Evans, the City has determined that <br />they wish to perform a full reconstruction of 174th Street from Collins Avenue to North <br />Bay Road and a complete milling and resurfacing from North Bay Road to the western <br />terminus of 174th Street. The preference is also to extend the stormwater system to the <br />west to tie into the North Bay Road outfall. In addition, the City would like to reconstruct <br />sidewalk as needed to include ADA compliance, provide traffic calming devices, replace <br />curb and gutter as needed, minimize median openings, add conduit sleeves to medians <br />for future use, include a construction phasing plan to provide uninterrupted use of City <br />Bus Shelters and landscape within the right of way and project limits. <br />Due to the assumed subsurface conditions, a geotechnical evaluation will be required to <br />determine the extent of the existing unsuitable material and establish a suitable <br />roadway cross section to properly support the roadway infrastructure and its <br />components. Depending on the outcome of the geotechnical testing, it may be <br />necessary to provide a structural reinforcement to the base material in the form of geo- <br />grid or alternative as well as possible structural support for drainage structures. <br />The City has also requested that CAS prepare the necessary contract documents and <br />specifications for the project, oversee the bid process and contract award for <br />construction. <br />Lastly, it is understood that in the future, the City would like CAS to perform adequate <br />site inspection and engineering services during construction to provide final project <br />certification. <br />CAS is pleased to provide the required services needed to complete the described <br />project. The limits of the project will be on 174th Street beginning at the east end at <br />Collins Avenue (SR -A1A) to western limits of 174th Street. Also included will be <br />necessary Survey of North Bay Drive from approximately 260 feet north of 174th Street <br />to approximately 300 feet south of 174th Street. The total linear footage of the project is <br />approximately 2,515 feet, just less than one half mile. <br />954 782.8222 S61.7 ATTACHMENT "A" 305.461.4410 <br />9 5 4. 7 8 6. 8 9 2 7 7 9 1. 9 8 1 8 <br />
