Based on these complaints, I have asked the City Manager and the <br /> City Attorney to find solutions to the obstruction caused by commercial <br /> vehicles on the City's primary streets. The flow of traffic is generally <br /> obstructed from l63rd Street to 178 Street during the peak hours. <br /> Based on communications with Florida Department of Transportation <br /> ("FDOT"), the City has been provided with the authority to strictly.enforce <br /> the state traffic obstruction statutes relating to Collins Avenue and Sunny <br /> Isles Boulevard. Simply put, the City has the authority to issue tickets to <br /> commercial vehicles, which block the flow of traffic on Collins Avenue and <br /> Sunny Isles Boulevard. As such, I am asking the City Commission to approve <br /> this Resolution to authorize the City Manager or designee to strictly enforce <br /> the State of Florida traffic obstruction statutes relating to Collins Avenue and <br /> Sunny Isles Boulevard based on guidance provided by FDOT. <br /> ATTACHMENTS: <br /> Description <br /> IYyl/sunyisles.rovusagada.caNCoverSheet.aspx?ItemID=1599 1/2 <br />
