SR S/Dixie Highway Corridor Study City Manager Flatley mentioned that the future traffic relief for US 1 will be conditioned upon decisions made on the SR5/Dixie Corridor Study which is presently in process. He mentioned that locations east of 5th Avenue were discussed for Alternate A1A over the years until Hugo Renda recommended to consider the existing Dixie Corridor that goes into Dade County. John Thompson, Project Manager for the Department of Transportation, advised that the Study started the beginning of May and is expected to take 18 months. He mentioned that they have been collecting physicai and natural data of the surrounding highway environment and that they are in the process of developing scanned aerials to be used for future presentations. He mentioned that Craig Miiler, Kimley-Horn & Associates, are the engineers on rhe proiecr and they are here tonight to present alternatives and scheduling for the project. Craig Miller, Kimley-Horn Ec Associates, advised that they ^re ^t the preliminary stages of the study and that preliminary concepts have been prepared. He stressed their desire to obtain input from the City and citizens on the project for a clearer goal on how to proceed. The 1.WORKSHOP MEETING AUGUST 23, L994 schedule calls for delivery of the final report around October 1995. If there is a feasible project at that point then they would proceed into future planning, design and implementation phases. The project has not received feasibility determination at this time so no programs and phases have been funded pending the outcome of the feasibility study. At this time, DOT presented their preliminary findings and the Commission presented their individual input. Mr. Miller explained that the process begins with the study that is called a Corridor Location Planning Report and that many more meetings will be held with Hallandale, Hollywood, Dania, Broward and Dade County officials as well as citizens. A more detailed analysis of alternatives would be prepared for the highest probability of survivability and then a preferred set of alternatives would be prepared based on a wide range of criteria not just cost. If that is accepted and adopted, funds to implement the project would be started and a Project Development Environmental Report/Study would be conducted so that final design, acquisition and construction could be started. The whole process would take at least five years and probably seven to ten years before it is opened to traffic. DOT assured the Commission that they will not impose an unacceptable project on the community and that their goal is to ensure that all communities involved accept the final project before anlthing goes forward. Addendum 2. \7i11 Al1en, Growth Management Director, advised that BSO is requesting a work release/ pre-release program for minimum security inmates at the Airport lnnlocated rt 244A Marina Mile. The Sheriff's office has requested confirmation that the propeny in question is zoned for this type of use and Mr. Allen advised that the property is zoned B-3 General Business and designated Commercial land use. The BSO Proposal is to provide and operate residential facilities for 400 to 600 minimum security inmates of the Broward County jail system and !0ackenhut Corrections will supply some ofthose beds at the Airport Inn which is a 160 room motel with a restaurant and bar. Mr. Allen advised that after review of the Zoning Code and a conference with City Manager Flatley, the City's position is that the request is not a specifically listed permitted use in the district and cannot be allowed unless an amendment to the Code is requested. A BSO representative advised that the facility would be a non-secure residential facility with no fences, barbed wire or correctional officers. It would be a work release facility for persons to stay while they go to their normai jobs. Another location is being considered by \Wackenhut for the Choice lnn at 2460 State Road 84 and 1 million dollars in renovations is anticipated for the facility. City Attorney Adler read the Code relating to requirements on permitted or special exception uses and the Commission advised BSO to seek another location for their work release program. 2WORKSHOP MEETING AUGUST 24 1994 This workshop meeting adiourned. ayoncom M City Clerk Auditor 3WORKSHOP MEETING AUGUST 23, 1994 FLORIDA l"1ay o r o 100 l^le s Dania, DEPARTMENT OF TRI,,PORTATION CONSULTANT MANACEMENT 1& war Co,lft..d Bal.r4 Fd L.d..d.l..
