2 A Resolution of the City Commission of the City of South Miami, urging
3 the Miami Dade County Board of County Commissioners to deny the
4 proposal to extend the SR-836 "Kendall Parkway" project past the 2020
5 Urban Development Boundary and expressing concern over the County
6 Department of Regulatory and Economic Resources' position as the
7 applicant for this proposal.
8 WHEREAS, the Miami Dade County Urban Development Boundary (UDB) is a zoning tool
9 established in 1983 to protect the wetlands, agricultural land, and open space lying between the county's
10 urban core and the wetlands of Everglades National Park to the West as well as Biscayne National Park to
11 the East, and
12 WHEREAS, the expansion of urban development outside the current UDB boundary places strain
13 upon county fresh-water, ecological, agricultural, and fiscal resources, and
14 WHEREAS, county staff has not found any demonstrated need to extend the boundaries of the
15 2020 UDB at this time, and
16 WHEREAS, Miami Dade Expressway Authority (MDX) is currently pursuing county approval for a
17 proposal to extend the SR-836 outside of the 2020 UDB, and
18 WHEREAS, MDX itself acknowledges that the road in question would place developmental
19 pressure on the surrounding area, and
20 WHEREAS, the proposed road passes through areas outside the 2020 UDB that should not be
21 developed, including a large portion of the West Wellfield, thousands of acres of active farmland, and
22 Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (CERP) buffer zones designated by the South Florida Water
23 Management District (SFWMD), and
24 WHEREAS, Miami Dade County Commissioners have already rejected this proposal over concerns
25 about extension past the UDB on two separate occasions in 2017, and
26 WHEREAS, Mayor Gimenez and MDX continue to pursue approval of this project, and
27 WHEREAS, under the Mayor's direction the Miami-Dade County Department of Regulatory and
28 Economic Resources has submitted a proposal to amend the Comprehensive Development Master Plan
29 to allow for this project, and
30 WHEREAS, history has shown that County staff cannot evaluate a proproposal objectively if the
31 applicant is likewise a County agency, because both groups answer to the same boss.
32 NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSIONERS OF THE CITY OF
33 SOUTH MIAMI, FLORIDA:
34 Section 1: The City Commission reccommends against allowing the Department of Regulatory
35 and Economic Resources, an internal County agency, to proceed as the applicant for the SR 836 extension

Mayor Philip Stoddard and The South Miami City Commission
6130 Sunset Drive
South Miami, FL 33143
RE: Transit Oriented Inml Development Support
Dear Honorable Mayor Stoddard and The South Miami City Commission,
I am writing today to express my support for the redevelopment of the Shops at Sunset Place. This
proposal constitutes an ideal example of the transit-oriented infill development which Miami's citizens
and environment both desperately need . These benefits include the following but are not limited to:
Preventing Urban Sprawl through Densijication
Urban sprawl is a major issue affecting both quality oflife and quality of the environment in
Miami Dade County. The county's topography makes large scale development unwise outside of an
elevated central corridor known as the "Atlantic Coastal Ridge". The land lying outside the ridge is both
highly flood-prone and ecologically sensitive . In 1983 Miami Dade County established the Urban
Development Boundary, as a means of combatting urban sprawl into the low-lying periphery of the
county and separating the urban core of Miami from the wetlands of the Everglades and Biscayne
National Park. The UDB is far from a perfect aegis however. The line is subject to expansion by the
Board of County Commissioners and must maintain the capacity to accommodate population growth.
The University of Florida Bureau of Economic and Business research show that Miami's
population is likely to grow from 2.7 million today to approximately 3.2 million by 2040 . Those familiar
with the c oncept of a "carrying capacity" i.e, the number of people that a region can support without
environmental degradation may find this troubling and testify that we should seek to limit popUlation
growth. Unfortunately, under current state law the establishment of such limits is not an option.
3.163.3177(1)(1)(3), Florida Statutes states that each municipal CDMP must accommodate medium
population projections for at least a 10-year planning period . Miami Dade County's Comprehensive
Development Master Plan exceeds this requirement , stating under Land Use provision LU-8F, that the
county must maintain a total 15-year Countywide supply of residential capacity beyond the date of
Evaluation and Appraisal Report adoption. Should the county analysts find insufficient supply within
the UDB, the county will have to either expand the boundary or risk incurring a lawsuit brought by
pro-development landowners outside the UDB. This project would significantly add to our supply
within the UDB and would not necessarily put new cars on the road because of its close proximity to
transit and walkability to services in South Miami . A win-win for South Miami economic benefits and
the protection of the Everglades and Farmland.
Weare mandated to allow for growth under state statue and so , this leaves us with only two
options; we can grow in or up, or we can sprawl out. We must avoid the latter. There is no scenario for
expanding the boundaries of the UDB that does not cut into valuable farmland , imperil fragile wetlands,

reduce aquifer recharge and expose citizens to unwarranted flood risk. Instead, we must approve projects
such as this one which increase residential capacity within the boundaries of the UDB.
Encouraging the Development of More Robust Public Transit Infrastructure
The development of an effective public transit system is critical to Miami's struggle for
sustainability and mobility. Unchecked urban sprawl has resulted in abhorrent traffic conditions for
Miami-Dade County residents, especially residents living on the county periphery that must drive
downtown. Many residents of the county spend upwards of two hours in highly congested traffic each
way going to and from work, reducing our collective quality oflife. The sheer number of cars on the road
also presents a major source of carbon pollution, threatening to undermine Miami-Dade counties climate
change remediation goals and exacerbate sea-level rise impacts. Our untenable traffic conditions also
present an additional risk for sprawl. Those bolstering the upcoming proposal to extend the SR-836 well
past the UDB into valuable farmland and wetlands often cite poor traffic conditions out west as an excuse
to push their pro-sprawl agenda .
Miami Dade County has long struggled with the implementation of robust public transit
infrastructure. After years of languishing, Miami Dade County leadership has finally begun to take the
idea of rail extension seriously once again . In 2016 the county unveiled a new plan that could finally
revive the city's bid to implement effective public transit: The Strategic Miami Area Rapid Transit
(SMART) plan. This plan would add 6 new rapid transit corridors throughout the county.
Still, the implementation of this crucial program is far from assured, and the county's
commitment to public transit is clearly lacking. Ridership on public transit has been falling steadily, and
in 2017 Mayor Gimenez pushed to defund the program by $30 million and continues to push for changes
to the SMART plan that would critically undermine it s effectivene ss. At the same time, th e dates for
meeting crucial project deadlines continue to be pushed back. If we do not generate a true concerted push
fo r public transit, w e may see a repeat of the failed promises of 200 2 and the ~ penny tax .
This development would add essential residential capacity adjacent to a major public transit hub.
The additional ridership that will generate will increase revenue for our public transit while
simultaneously increasing support for the development of an expanded public transit system. The best
way to ensure that the county makes the right decisions on transit is to increase the base of citizens who
rely upon it.
Thus, I urge the South Miami City Commission to approve this application and the attached
resolution in opposition to the 836 expansion proposal outside the Urban Development Boundary.
Sincerely,
Laura Reynolds, Founding and Managing Member, Conservation Concepts LLC

The SR-836/Dolphin Expressway Southwest Extension is planned as a 6-lane expressway
from its proposed connection to the existing SR-836 interchange at NW 137 Avenue
extending southwestward to SW 8 Street at SW 157 Avenue and thereafter extending
southward as a 4-lane expressway to connect to SW 136 Street (see Exhibit A-Location
Map), having potential interchanges and park and ride facilities at:
• SW 8th Street/Tamiami Trail
• SW 40 th Street /Bird Road
• SW 56th Street/Miller Drive
• SW 88 th Street/Kendall Drive
• SW 104th Street/Killian Parkway
• SW 120th Street
• SW 136th Street
The Project is being planned as an approximate SOO-foot wide expressway corridor that would
include provisions for mass transit and a greenway/trail for non-motorized travel.
4. REASONS FOR CHANGE
The SR-836/Dolphin Expressway Southwest Extension ("Project") is proposed as an
integral part of a complete outlook on mobility and transportation infrastructure and
facilities serving the communities of Miami-Dade County. In particular, the Project is
proposed in direct response to the growth and development within the western and
southwest portions of the County to address the existing deficiencies in the capacity of the
area's transportation network.
The Project is included in the adopted Miami-Dade 2040 Long Range Transportation Plan
(LRTP) as a Partially Funded project and to advance the Project ahead, inclusion within
the County's Comprehensive Development Master Plan (CDMP) is required and is
proposed herein. The Project would be built and operated as a tolled facility by the Miami-
Dade Expressway Authority (MDX). All MDX project development and environment
(PD&E) studies, as well as all design and construction works are funded solely with toll
revenues. MDX will continue the project development process in close coordination with
all local, state and federal permitting agencies, including the USACE.
The purposes of the SR-836/Dolphin Expressway Southwest Extension are:
• Improve roadway system connectivity within Miami-Dade County
• Improve access to and from major employment, education and commercial centers
• Improve mobility for people and goods by providing additional north-south access to
serve existing travel demand,
• Promote public safety by improving hurricane/emergency evacuation clearance
times
• Provide for multi modal transportation including mass transit, bicycle and
pedestrianism
• Improve traffic conditions on arterial roads promoting counter-flow traffic patterns
between the Homestead Extension of Florida's Turnpike (HEFT) and the SR-836
Southwest Extension project area
In summary, the Project proposes enhanced connectivity and more roadway capacity
between the predominantly residential suburbs of south and west Miami-Dade County and
the rapidly developing job centers in northwest and central Miami-Dade County. The
proposed toll-financed expressway facility would reduce congestion and travel times on
many roadways, and aid during hurricane/emergency evacuations. The Project will include
a new transit corridor and park and ride locations for future development, giving residents
alternative means to travel from the south and west to the northwest and central parts of
the County. This feature of the Project will build on the transit opportunities in the SMART
Plan, now being implemented within and by the County.
While the Project will be located outside the existing Urban Development Boundary (UDB)
as depicted on the Adopted 2020 and 2030 Land Use Plan map, it is based on the two
highest-ranked corridors in the Alternative Corridor Evaluation process and has been
tailored to hew as closely as possible to the existing UDB. Of the 10 potential corridors
evaluated during the Alternative Corridor Evaluation process, conducted by the MDX
between years 2014 and 2017, the only corridor located primarily within the UDB ranked
last on the basis of the significant number of properties (primarily residences) that it would
impact, and that it would yield the least net user benefits for motorists.
To implement the SR-8361D01phin Expressway Southwest Extension, a text and map
amendment to the Miami-Dade County Comprehensive Development Master Plan
(CDMP) is required. These changes are justified by the following reasons:
Transportation Demand and Capacity
The existing roadway network does not efficiently serve the existing captive demand
generated by the residential, commercial and business activity in south and west Miami-
Dade County. Preliminary traffic analyses demonstrate that the Project would serve a
demand that is saturating the available network capacity. The Project would enhance the
travel conditions for residents, commuters, freight and commercial movement while
providing operating speeds of up to 55 mph, potentially more than doubling the current
travel speeds along the existing east-west and north-south arterials in the general area,
which during peak hours currently travel below 25 mph with the lowest travel speed
recorded at 11 mph. The Project would change travel patterns by providing multimodal
opportunities for motorized and non-motorized modes, allowing for a more efficient use of
the existing roadway capacity and a more balanced traffic flow. (Current travel times
recorded in Corridor Evaluation Traffic Technical Memorandum dated February 2017 of
the MDX SR 836/Dolphin Expressway Southwest Extension PD&E Study prepared by
Jacobs Engineering Group, Inc.)
Improving System Linkage
The Project would provide much needed capacity and system linkage to the transportation
network in the southwestern portion of Miami-Dade County. The primary access to SR
836 and other expressways from the West Kendall area is provided by the Homestead
Extension of the Florida Turnpike (HEFT) via SW 152nd Street, SW 120ih Street, SW 88t~
Street, and SW 40~h Street. Additional access to the regional expressway system is
provided by SR 874 via SW 104th Street. The arterials that feed the limited expressway
system are currently heavily congested. An additional north-south corridor would relieve
the congestion experienced on the entire system. Moreover, the Project's southern
terminus at SW 136 th Street will facilitate travel to other MDX facilities, specifically the SR
874/00n Shula through the new SR 874 Ramp Connector project at SW 128\0 Street that
is currently under construction with associated improvements along SW 128i11 Street.
Planning for Social Demands and Economic Development
The Project will provide improved accessibility to major activity and employment centers
including the Miami Executive Airport, Miami International Airport (MIA), the Doral
Warehouse District, the Health District, the Downtown Central Business District (CBD) and
Miami-Dade County's civic and cultural centers. In addition to these areas, the Project will
also serve the major social and activity centers that include Dolphin and International
Malls; educational institutions like Florida International University (FlU), and local major
attractions such as Zoo Miami. An increase in travel speeds with a corresponding
decrease in Vehicle Hours Traveled (VHT) will improve access to jobs and opportunities
to shop, both in support of the local and regional economy. (VHT data obtained from the
SR 836 Extension PD&E Study: Final 2050 Screenline Traffic Forecasting Summary,
dated December 22, 2017.)
Emphasizing Modal Interrelationships
The Project will serve as a platform for transit providers to improve service and connectivity
between transit and other planned transportation facilities including non-motorized
facilities within Miami-Dade County. The Project proposes the inclusion of express lanes
outfitted with technologies that facilitate the safe travel of automated vehicles, including
mass transit vehicles, at high rates of speed (XT Lanes) for a seamless connection with
the transit service being implemented as part of the current SR 836 reconstruction
generally east of the Turnpike. Transit users would benefit from a higher level of transit
services to be integrated into the expressway corridor. The proposed typical section for
the Project also includes an envelope for future transit, protecting right of way earmarked
to provide an additional transportation mode in this corridor at a later date. Coordination
between the MDX and Miami-Dade County primarily through the Miami-Dade County
Department of Transportation and Public Works (DTPW) that currently operates various
transit technologies from express bus to rail, could provide/improve system linkages to
areas underserved by the existing transit system. The potential to strategically locate a
park and ride facility(s) to further facilitate transit service will be evaluated as part of the
Project's future PD&E study, Additionally, the Project proposes incorporation of a multi-
use recreational trail that may also serve as a buffer between developed areas and the
expressway, while providing pedestrian/bicycle access to park and ride facilities and the
County's Greenway System.
The Project and Urban Development outside the UDB
The project is a response to existing transportation capacity needs inside the 2020 Urban
Development Boundary (UDB) and is not to serve as impetus for urban development or
for expansion of the UDB. Accordingly, policy toward assuring this remains true will be
developed and evaluated along with this application. Such policies might include, but are
not limited to: ensuring that roadway Level of Service improvements that will result from
the Project will not permit additional development beyond that which would be permitted
if the Project is not built; maximizing the preservation of adjacent wetland resources as
part of mitigation for the construction of the road, and/or; a potential development buffer
along the length of the corridor.
Description of the Project Alignment
The proposed alignment for the Corridor covers approximately 780 acres and passes
through the Sections, Townships and Ranges, as listed in Table 1 below. The proposed
corridor extends a total of approximately 13 miles. It starts at the existing interchange of
SR 836 and NW 137 th Avenue and follows the alignment described below:
1. From the existing SR 836 and NW 137th Avenue interchange goes south/west
somehow parallel to SW 137th Avenue and SW 8th Street. This northern segment
goes through the Sections, Townships and Ranges identified in the table with
numbers one through three.
2. It continues parallel to SW 8th Street up to approximately SW 162 nd Avenue where
it starts to turn south again and travels south parallel to SW 167th Avenue. This
segment goes through the Section, Township and Ranges identified with numbers
four through six.
1. After it turns it travels southbound parallel to SW 167 th Avenue up to approximately
SW 72 nd Street. This segment goes through the Section, Township and Ranges
identified with numbers six through nine. In this area, there is an alternate option
for the alignment that instead traveling parallel to SW 167 th Street it traverses this
area diagonally from SW 8th Street to SW 40 th Street The Sections, Townships and
Ranges differ from the ones listed with the curved alignment. In this segment it
traverses through the Section, Township and Ranges identified in the table with the
numbers six and seven of the Alternate Alignment columns.
3. From SW 72 nd Street it starts to turn west and south becoming parallel to SW 172f1d
Avenue up to SW 104th Street. I n this segment, the alignment goes through
Section, Township and Ranges identified with numbers 10 through 11.
4. From SW 104th Street to north of SW 120th Street it traverses diagonally in a
southeast direction approaching SW 162 nd Avenue. In this segment I traverses
Section, Township and Ranges identified with numbers 12 through 13.
5. From SW 120th Street it continues south parallel to SW 162nd Avenue until it
connects to SW 136ih Street. In this segment the alignment goes through Section,
Township and Ranges identified with number 14.
