Based on our June 11" meeting, it is our understanding that it is the City's desire to provide landscape and irrigation improvements to green areas that lie within and adjacent to that intersection. Specifically, the areas to be addressed may include, but not be limited to: • Griffin Road's center median and adjacent rights-of-way, both east and west of 1-95; and The 1-95 on and off ramp areas at Griffin Road. E D S A is to coordinate with FDOT for applicable design standards, as well as adjacent landowners, including the Hilton and Wyndham Hotels, the IFGA and Bass Pro site, and the Humane Society. Additionally, E D S A is to consider potential grant money through FDOT, the Broward Beautiful program, and any guidelines that these grant programs may have that will impact the design. In order to derive a design solution that meets the City's goals and objectives, E D S A proposes the following process: TASK ONE— SITE ANALYSIS Upon receipt of an appropriate base survey of the project area including water supply information, E D S A will visit the project site to verify existing conditions and identify related design opportunities and constraints. E D S A will also contact FDOT, the Broward Beautiful Program, and adjacent landowners, as noted above, to determine potential interface with existing or proposed plans, and to understand applicable design standards.
