<br /> <br />City of Sunny Isles Beach ∙ RFQ No. 12-04-02 – Planning & Urban Design <br />4-4 <br />frequently caused by a problem downstream from the area. Once livability <br />issues are established, the appropriate devices are selected to remedy the <br />situation. Traffic-calming devices come in many varieties. Selecting the <br />appropriate device is paramount, because misplaced infrastructure can often <br />exacerbate the problem. It is also important to work with the neighbors to <br />assure that they are comfortable with the selected device. Upon approval from <br />the City administration and neighbors, Corradino seeks concurrence from <br />Miami-Dade County, who seeks to maintain control over all but the most local <br />streets. Corradino has done analysis and designs for these projects in Palmetto <br />Bay, Doral, Cutler Bay, Hialeah, Miami, and others. The ability to commu nicate <br />the costs and benefits to the community is critical in attaining consensus on <br />these efforts. Corradino's experience has shown that, while most traffic calming <br />is relatively controversial to begin with, often within 90 days after <br />implementation, the surrounding communities and neighbors are happy with <br />the results. <br />
