MEMORANDUM
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners
VIA: Stan Morris, City Manager
FROM: Amy Canales, AICP, Planning& Zoning Director
DATE: January 15, 2026
RE: Community Aesthetic Feature Agreement with the Florida Department of
Transportation (FDOT) for the Design, Installation, and Maintenance of Local
Identification Markers
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of this Resolution.
The City currently has four welcome signs that need to be replaced due to deterioration and outdated
branding. The City Commission approved conceptual designs for these welcome signs via Resolution
2024-3652. Three of these signs are located within Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) right-
of-way, on the William Lehman Causeway eastbound ramp and within the Collins Avenue medians at
the southern and northern limits of the city. Since the original installation of the signs, FDOT has a new,
required process for installation of welcome signs in their right-of-way.
According to the FDOT Design Manual, the entryway signs are considered "Community Aesthetic
Features" and more specifically, "Local ID Markers." According to the FDOT Design manual, a
Community Aesthetic Feature (CAF) is defined as, "An enhancement installed within the Department's
right of way to represent or reflect the surrounding community's identity, culture, and values," and Local
I D Markers, "are intended to represent the geographic boundary for a county, municipality, sovereign
nation, or unincorporated area."
Replacement of the existing welcome signs will require a CAF Agreement with FDOT, which must be
executed by the local governmental entity and FDOT prior to construction. The agreement provides for
the removal and/or relocation of the CAF at the local governmental entity's expense should it not be

maintained by the local governmental entity, or if FDOT needs the right-of-way for transportation
purposes. A Deposit, Performance Bond, or Letter of Credit is required as part of the CAF Agreement.
For the three entryway signs, the required amount is $35,000, which will be held by FDOT for the term
of the 30-year agreement.
Finalizing the CAF Agreement must be accompanied by a resolution of the local governmental entity
indicating their full financial responsibility for the feature's design, construction, and maintenance
during its lifespan and must indicate the office or position title within the local agency with approval
authority to execute the CAF agreement. This resolution will provide the City Manager authority to
execute the CAF agreement.
The CAF Agreement is attached to this memo along with the previously approved concept plans for the
proposed signs.
