SUBJECT: "Coastal Communities Transportation Master Plan" Update and Request
('
DearMr~so,~
This is to inform you that our joint coastal communities' application for the Metropolitan
Planning Organization (MPO) to fund and conduct our proposed "Coastal Communities
Transportation Master Plan," was not recommended for award by the MPO's Unified
Planning Work Program (UPWP) Selection Committee. The UPWP had only $140,000
available for new studies and two other County projects were awarded, instead: An
"Arterial Grid Network Analysis" at $60,000, and a "Visioning the Future Study" at
$80,000.
Following MPO recommendation, the City of Miami Beach plans has resubmitted our
joint "Coastal Communities Transportation Master Plan" application to meet a March 5,
2005 deadline under the MPO's 2006 Municipal Grant Program. This latter grant
program could be awarded at a maximum amount of $150,000, while our "Coastal
Communities Transportation Master Plan" is estimated to cost $275,000. This remaining
of $125,000 will have to be a local contribution.
The City of Miami Beach will cover the largest share of the local match, but we would
like the other Cities to consider some funding assistance. We can discuss a specific
allocation, however if we use population, the distribution would be as follows:
Mu.nicipality Population Distribution Matching Funds
City of Aventura 26,142 17.3% $'21,674
Town of Bal Harbour Village 3,309 2.2% 2,743
Town of Bay Harbor Islands 5,118 3.4% 4,243
City of Miami Beach 88,972 59.0% 73,766
City of North Bay Village 6,689 4.4% 5,546
City of Sunny Isles Beach 15,477 10.3% 12,832
Town of Surfside 5.061 3.4% 4.196
150,768 100% $125,000
Please let us know if you are willing to participate in funding the local match required for
the grant and if a population basis is acceptable.
Sincerely,
Jod:x:ez

FY 2006 UNIFIED PLANNING WORK PROGRAM
TASK NUMBER AND TITLE: 4.13 MUNICIPAL GRANT PROGRAM
COASTAL COMMUNITIES TRANSPORTATION MASTER PLAN
OBJECTIVES:
· Study the existing and future sub-regional transportation network through extensive
data collection, analysis, and public involvement.
· Develop a multi-modal list of projects, designed to address identified needs based on
the scientific and subjective nature of the project.
· Quantify the cost ofthese projects, relative to their planning, design and construction.
· Prioritize the list of projects into an Implementable 10 year Coastal Communities
Transportation Master Plan.
· Achieve community consensus, and approval by each governing body involved.
· Enhance regional mobility, in a coordinated manner.
PREVIOUS WORK:
· In the late 1990's the Miami Beach Municipal Mobility Plan was developed through a
partnership between Miami Beach and the Metropolitan Planning Organization. Its
purpose was to examine multi-modal measures by which to mitigate mobility issues
on Miami Beach. The vast majority ofthe 45 projects recommended in this plan have
been implemented. Due to this success the plan is already in need of updating. To
truly provide a higher level of planning, it is believed that the Mobility Plan must be
expanded to examine transportation in coastal Miami-Dade County, in a more
coordinated and regional manner. It is recognized that the immediately affected
communities do not exist in a vacuum, and leadership and vision are needed to jointly
manage the transportation system in the area. What is done in one will have far
reaching impacts, not only on each cities immediate neighbors, but on mainland
Miami-Dade County. It is for this reason that a highly coordinated effort between the
affected cities, FDOT, the Miami-Dade MPO, Miami-Dade County and the South
Florida Regional Planning Council is needed.
METHODOLOGY:
· This effort strives to set an example as a targeted sub-regional attempt at
transportation planning which is multi-modal in nature. In doing so it is imperative to
produce a plan that is both scientific and personal in nature. Hard data derived from
traffic counts and analysis will be projected. Issues arrived at through accepted
methodologies will be supported through an extensive public involvement process.
The study will portray existing conditions and project conditions in the future, and
will provide a clear picture of the origin and destination of traffic affecting the coastal
commumtIes, as traffic flows across the causeways. In addition realistic growth
projections will be developed in concert with the MPO, utilizing the future land use
maps and build-out scenarios of each city. It will make recommendations that will
focus coordinated improvements. It will involve local decision makers in the process.
Task 1: Public involvement
Engaging the public and incorporating public input is a multi-level process that
takes place consistently throughout the duration of the plan development. The
goal shall be community consensus, resulting in approval from each of the
governing bodies involved.
Task 2: Data Collection and Analysis
Previous work will be used as a guide to the assignment of data collection efforts.
Planning work will be coordinated with currently ongoing studies and projects
that will have direct and indirect impacts on the relevance and effectiveness of the
Master Plan's recommendations. Traffic counts will be taken along key
transportation routes. Data will be projected so that future impacts can be
examined. It will be important to understand the where current traffic is coming
from and where it is going, therefore an e~ficient and cost effective origin and
destination study will be developed.
Task 3: Needs Assessment
A three level analyses (intersection, corridor, regional) will point to various levels
of need, for various modes both in and adjacent to the coastal communities.
Identified needs will be organized into logical multi-modal categories. From this
assessment a list of potential projects will be developed.
Task 4: Development of Potential Projects
Each project will be conceptually developed. This will entail the formulation of a
project sheet for each project that details the project specifics, which will aid in
the prioritization process.
Task 5: Implementation Plan
The first section of this plan, the data and analysis is an effort to provide a
snapshot of future transportation issues and trends which will impact the study
area. The Master Plan should establish a vision for transportation and make
recommendations for meeting the identified needs. These needs will be met in the
second section of the plan, with the development of projects and Implementation
Plan.

RE: Coastal Communities Transportation Master Plan Request
RECOMMENDATION
The coastal communities in northeastern Miami-Dade County (Aventura, Bal Harbor, Miami Beach,
Sunny Isles Beach, and Surfside) are interested in the development of a transportation master plan
that addresses traffic and transportation on the barrier islands.
REASONS
The goal of this plan is to produce short, mid, and long term multi-modal solutions to
transportation issues. In the late 1990's the Miami Beach Municipal Mobility Plan was developed to
mitigate issues on Miami Beach. The vast majority of the 45 projects recommended in this plan
have or are being implemented. Due to this success, this plan is in need of updating. To truly
provide a higher level of planning, the Mobility Plan must be expanded to examine transportation in
coastal Miami-Dade County, in a more coordinated and regional manner. What is done in one will
have far reaching impacts, not only on each cities immediate neighbors, but on mainland Miami-
Dade County. It is for this reason that a highly coordinated effort between the cities, FDOT, the
Miami-Dade MPO, Miami-Dade County and the South Florida Regional Planning Council is
needed.
The City of Miami Beach will cover the largest share of the local match, however if we use
population, the distribution would be as follows:
