The City has also identified as its first area of implementation the reconfiguration of Collins Avenue with additional landscaping and Streetscape improvements. STREETSCAPE MASTER PLAN (14 weeksl Task I. Data Collection and Inventory (4 weeks) In this phase we will obtain and review all base survey information data, utility information, traffic analysis reports, existing codes, historic and social context of the City. We will perform a series of site visits to document all existing conditions with regard to streets, sidewalks, lighting. vegetation. site furniture, problem areas, and special1eatures for all streets within the City. In this phase we will participate in the initial town hall meeting to obtain input from citi;zens as well as the Planning Advisory Board (PAB), and City staff. We will also hold meetings with FDOT and other effected agencies and utility companies regarding the anticipated improvements to Collins Avenue. The purpose of these meetings is to establish an early relationship with the agencies and receive their input and comments. in relation to the design parameters and the plan review process. Deliverables will be a general base map of the City with photographs and notes depicting the existing conditions and site data information obtained in this phase. This plan will be used as a reference through out the project and as a display to initiate input during the initial public involvement meeting. Task 2. Site Analysis. (3 weeks) We will provide an overall analysis plan that indicates all constraints and opportunities that will shape the development of the streetscape master plan. This analysis information will include information on existing vegetation. pedestrian and vehicular circulotion, land uses, ilrchitecture, drainage, utilities, site furniture, lighting, :sign age, and the urban design structure regarding nodes, intersections, and street typologies. We will meet with City staff to start identifying funding sources and to establish a preliminary budget for the identified areas of improvement. Deliverables in the analysis phase will be a general plan that combines the major aspects of the specific analyses and the effect they will have on the final streets cape master plan for the City. -1- Deliverables in the analysis phase will be a general plan that combines the major aspects of the specific analyses and the effect they will have on the final streetscape master plan for the City. Task 3. Master Plan, Streetscape Guidelines, and Schematic Plan for Collins Avenue (7 weeks) In this phase a preliminary master plan will be developed for presentation to the City and the public that will incorporate solutions to the analysis observations and community wide goals. In this phase we will also provide 8-10 typical sections for major streets within the City. The master plan will include location of entrance portals, main vehicular and pedestrian nodes, utility improvements, public spaces and plazas, development of view corridors, parking issues, pedestrian sidewalk widths, green strip widths, roadway widths, median widths, and crosswalk locations. The typical sections will include sidewalk widths, green strips, roadway widths, median widths, general location of vegetation, lighting and street furniture. This preliminary master plan and the analysis information will be presented in meeting with the Planning Advisory Board and City staff so that the final configurations can be determined. Based on the comments provided by the PAB and the City, the master plan will be finalized. This phase will also include the preparation of the streetscape guidelines. The streetscape guidelines will include existing site images and 8.'0 existing and proposed site sections. Paving, street furniture, lighting, plant material selections for 8-10 typical street conditions within the City will accompany the sections. Both the master plan and streetscape guidelines will serve as the basis to move into detailed design development and construction drawings for each street based on the priority established by the City. Since the City has already identified the improvements to Collins Avenue as one of their top priorities. emphasis will be placed on providing a schematic plan for Collins Avenue. It is anticipated that a traffic study will be required by the reviewing agencies to insure that the proposed modifications do not cause a traffic congestion problem in the City. The final master plan and streetscape guidelines will be presented to the Planning Advisory Board and City staff in a public meeting as well as in a final town hall meeting. Deliverables in this phase will be a preliminary master plan and 8-10 typical sections that will be presented in the first public meeting in this phase. Based on that approved plan the master plan will be finalized. The streetscape guidelines will be presented in 11 x1 7 booklet format with black and white images, an order of magnitude cost estimate and phasing plan. The final master plan, and streetscape guidelines will be presented in the last public meeting, together with the schematic design for Collins Avenue. Community Involvement Community support will be vital to the success of the master plan and the eventual implementation of the projects. We will work closely with the City staff and with the PAB as the lead community group through the duration of the preparation of the master plan. This group as per the information provided by the City is a broad based including residents as well as business owners and representatives from the development sector. We envision that there should be three meetings planned with the PAS which will include the following: -2- Task 1/Meeting: Typically this is a kick off meeting for the project. At this point the scope of the work that the City is undertaking is presented in order to clarify and inform the community about the goals, the scope and the specific tasks that the master plan will include. It is necessary to indicate at this time what the final product expected will be. Task 2/Meetlng: At this meeting the findings of problems and opportunities will be presented in the analysis plan. The solution in the form of the preliminary master plan will be presented for comments and input. Task 3/Meeting: At this meeting the final master plan, streetscape guidelines and schematic plan for Collins Avenue will be reviewed for final approval prior to last town hall meeting. It is recommended that at the start of the project and in the final presentation that a town hall meeting take place in order to address the community in general. It is envisioned that the City will provide the advertisement for these meetings and we will assist in the preparation of all exhibits, presentations and agendas for all meetings. We understand that the PAB meetings are regularly scheduled meetings and for those that will include presentations on the master plan, the general community and any interested party will be invited. -3- -J ~ 2 ~ W u: .;.:'::'/;;;~~. ~ ~~.., .i.. co .~:. ..'": rD '::e::.,..:;~;: r" ~<I"" ....) .:< \~.~M~..~ . 0' ,.0 .
