All of the participants will be requested to provide additional funds to
complete the project in its entirety. The City of Miami Planning Department
is working with the Tacolcy Economic Development Corporation on the additional
funding required.

Northwest 7 Avenue is designated as a Florida Department of Transportation
road. The Florida Department of Transportation does not maintain any
decorative sidewalk and landscaping that are placed within their rights -of -
way. The agreement would require that the City maintain and assume liability
for any problems caused by the landscaping and the decorative sidewalk.
Without the City entering into an agreement with the Florida Department of
Transportation, the State will not permit the installation of any of the
proposed landscaping and decorative sidewalk.
