Russo, City Manager(44- <br /> DATE: July 17, 2003 <br /> RE: LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURAL SERVICES FOR THE SUNNY ISLES <br /> BOULEVARD/SR826.TRAFFIC CALMING PROJECT <br /> RECOMMENDATION <br /> It is recommended that the City Commission approve the attached resolution entering into an <br /> agreement with O'Leary Design Associates, P.A. ("O'Leary") for landscape architectural <br /> services for the Sunny Isles Boulevard/SR 826 Traffic Calming Project. <br /> REASONS <br /> The City would like to improve vehicular and pedestrian traffic conditions on Sunny Isles <br /> Boulevard/SR 826, based on Concept Alternative I of the Florida Department of Transportation <br /> Study for that road. This project will entail reducing the number of travel lanes from five (5) to <br /> four (4), reducing the width of the lanes to eleven feet (11'), and increasing the sidewalk from <br /> five feet (5') to fourteen feet (14'), presenting the need for landscape design services. O'Leary <br /> has agreed to undertake the landscape design aspects of this project and has submitted a proposal <br /> for services, in an amount of Fifty-Six Thousand Three Hundred Fifty Dollars ($56,350.00), <br /> attached hereto as Exhibit "A." <br /> ADDITIONAL INFORMATION <br /> This project will vastly improve the main entrance to the City, as well as slow down traffic and <br /> create a pedestrian friendly area to cross Sunny Isles Boulevard/SR826. Additional features of <br /> this project will pave the way for further redevelopment on the north and south sides of Sunny <br /> Isles Boulevard. <br /> O'Leary has made a major improvement throughout the City, along Collins Avenue. This <br /> contract will give Sunny Isles Boulevard a uniform scheme that is carried throughout the entire <br /> city. <br /> CJR/pw <br /> Siblvd-Traffic Calming O'Leary Landscape Arch Memo <br />
