ENCLOSURES:
RECOMMENDATION
It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached
Resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a professional services
agreement with the Florida International University Joint Center for
Environmental and Urban Problems (Joint Center) in an amount not to exceed
$45,495, for a transportation goods movement study of the Wynwood/Allapattah
areas of Miami, with special focus on past and future operations of the Port
of Miami
BACKGROUND
On February 25, 1993, the City Commission accepted a grant from the
Metropolitan Planning Organization for the Miami Urbanized Area (MPO), for
transportation planning and coordination activities. In its discussion
preceding acceptance of the grant, the City Commission directed staff to
include, in the scope of work to be done under the grant, a study in the
Wynwood/Allapattah areas of the City in cooperation with the City's
International Trade Board.
Subsequently, under a professional services agreement executed October 4, 1993
the City engaged the services of Florida International University's Joint
Center for. Environmental- and Urban Problems (Joint Center) to prepare' a
proposed scope of work for a study that would address Miami's role in goods
movement within the western hemisphere, with particular focus on the present
and future operations of the Port of Miami, and the role that the center -city
neighborhoods of Wynwood and Allapattah might play in international trade
Preparation of this scope of work has now been completed.
It is now, in order for the City Manager to execute a professional services
agreement with the Joint Center to perform the goods movement study, which
will assist the City and its International Trade. Board in understanding the
City's role in international trade as it relates to patterns of goods movement
in the western hemisphere and the Caribbean basin. This knowledge will help
in making decisions regarding the future of the Wynwood and.Allapattah areas
and their redeveloping industrial and warehouse components, in light of Port
of Miami operations and other transportation facilities and needs.
