BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:
As one of our selected professional general engineering consultants, Milian Swain & Associates,
Inc. (MSA) will provide survey & testing services, design, bid and construction phase
professional services for Snapper Creek Drainage & Traffic Improvements. The professional
services will be provided for the project area defined as: SW 84th Street from SW 58th Avenue to SW
62 "d Avenue, SW 851h Street from SW 58th Avenue to SW 60th Street, SW 58th Avenue from SW 84th
Street to SW 85th Street and SW 591' Avenue from SW 84th' Street to SW 85th Avenue.
The proposed traffic calming is the implementation of some of the recommendations of the
Snapper Creek Traffic Plan completed in April 2004. After the study, Miami bade County
Public Works Department, Traffic Engineering Division reviewed the report and expressed no
objection to the construction of traffic circles at the intersection of.
1. SW 84 " Street & SW 58" Avenue
2. SW 84t" Street & SW 59th Avenue
By implementing these calming devices, we intend to eliminate the excessive traffic intrusion to
the Snapper Creek neighborhood and prevent continued degradation of its quality of life and
safety.
In addition to the traffic calming element, we are proposing improvements to the drainage system
along the proposed project corridor. Our records indicate that some of the existing drainage
structures within the estimated 5,100 lineal feet project corridor are old and sub - standard. As part
of this professional service, 5 percolation tests will be performed by a geotechnical engineer to
Page 2 of 2
Comm. Mtg. Agenda
July 19, 2005
assist in the design of adequate drainage system needed along the corridor. The proposed
improvements will include the design for required catch basins, exfiltration trenches, piping,
pavement restoration, landscaping and pavement marking. These professional services will be
funded through the People's Transportation Tax Fund account number 124- 1730 -541 -33450 with
a balance of $180,136.72, before this request.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Commission approve the resolution.
