Request: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF OPA-LOCKA, FLORIDA, AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO SUBMIT AN APPLICATION TO THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION, FEDERAL HIGHWAY ADMINISTRATION, FOR THE FY 2012 PUBLIC LANDS HIGHWAYS DISCRETIONARY (PLHD) PROGRAM REQUESTING FUNDS IN THE AMOUNT UP TO SEVEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND ($750,000.00) DOLLARS; PROVIDING FOR INCORPORATION OF RECITALS; PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE. Description: The Public Lands Highways Discretionary (PLHD) Program provides funding transportation planning, research, and engineering and construction of highways, roads, parkways and transit facilities that within, adjacent to, or provide access to Indian reservations and Federal public lands including nation parks, refuges, forest, recreation areas and grasslands. Eligible public sector organizations can request funding for engineering surveys and investigations; economic surveys and investigations; planning of future FLMA transportation program; planning of future FLMA public transportation systems; planning of the financing of future FLMA highway and public transportation systems; FLMA transportation planning and coordination with metropolitan and statewide transportation planning; development and implementation of FLMA management systems, including such activities as traffic data collection and analysis, pavement and bridge inspections and safety audits; studies of the economy, safety and convenience of surface transportation systems; and studies of the desirable regulation and equitable funding of surface transportation systems. Financial Impact: Funding for the costs of any project eligible under this program is 100 percent. Implementation Time Line: Immediately. Application due date is December 21, 2011. Legislative History: None Recommendation(s): Staff is recommending the approval. A successful application will provide the City with funds to improve the efficiency of the city's transportation system. The funds will be used to complete the NW 143rd Street stormwater drainage and street improvement project. NW 143rd Street is the access road to Segal Park. The NW 143rd Street project has some grant funds which allow construction of drainage and roadway improvement for a smaller portion of the roadway than the original intent of the construction plan. The additional funds will allow the city to complete the construction of this project as it was originally designed.
