3. CRA Updates
Director Earle thanked Board Member Duke for meeting with him, City Engineer Ronnie
Navarro and Broward County regarding the US-1 Phase II landscaping project. The south digs
have revealed issues with underground utilities, primarily the traffic signal fiber optic lines along
the east side. Although the County manages the fiber optic lines, they belong to FDOT, and the
County will arrange a meeting to move the project forward.
Board Member Duke noted there will be a resolution coming to the City Commission for
approval of a change in the overall pricing, which includes this issue.
Board Member Grace commented that everyone was aware there could be problems due to the
age of the City.
Director Earle advised there are items that need to be fixed in Sun Garden Isles, although the
project is moving forward very well. One issue, as noted by Board Member Grace, is that stop
bars have been removed by Broward County on NW 1" Street, which creates a safety hazard.
Staff will contact the County about replacement of the bars and stop sign, and then make other
minor adjustments to the project.
Board Member Duke complimented the Board on the CRA projects, particularly the CW Thomas
project and the NW Byrd Point project with the additional parking and landscaping.
Board Member Grace cautioned Director Earle to stay on top of the stop signs because children
come across this area to get to Collins School and traffic should be slowed down.
Director Earle agreed this is a health, safety and welfare issue, and the case will be made to the
County.
Mayor Flury suggested a temporary stop sign be installed until the issue is resolved.
