SUBJECT: Amendment to Support
Services Memorandum of
Agreement between the
City and the Downtown
REFERENCES: Development Authority
ENCLOSURES: ( 2 )
It is recommended that the City Commission
approve the attached resolution authorizing
the City Manager to amend the approved
Memorandum of Agreement (Resolution 83-218)
with the Downtown Development Authority (DDA)
in the amount of an additional $10,000 for
technical support services for the Southeast
Overtown/Park West Community Redevelopment
Project.
The Miami City Commission, on March 18, 1983, approved the Memo-
randum of Agreement between the City and the Downtown Development
Authority (DDA) for technical support services for the Southeast
Overtown/Park West Community Redevelopment Project (Resolution
No. 83-218). This $35,000 Agreement allocated only $2,500 from
an extensive work program for providing assistance in the prepara-
tion of the Development of Regional Impact Statement (DRI). The
Southeast Overtown/Park West Project Office has subsequently init-
iated the preparation of the DRI and it has been determined that
neither the City nor County (note attachment) has the available
staff to prepare the section of the DRI concerning traffic and
transportation. The South Florida Regional Planning Council staff,
in our preapplication meetings, has continually stressed the
importance of carefully evaluating the impact of the redevelopment
program on traffic within the central core area and has indicated
that this will be a major criteria in their evaluation of the
project.
The Downtown Development Authority has a traffic planner who will
be able, with the assistance of a consultant, to expediously
prepare this portion of the DRI. The additional $10,000 in funding
will be utilized by the DDA to hire a consultant to assist their
staff in the preparation of the document, for the proposed Septem-
ber 6, 1983 submission date.
Based on our careful evaluation, we believe this will be the most
cost effective means for obtaining this crucial information.
Funding will be from a reallocation of the existing allocated un-
encumbered funds.

Re: Overtown/Park West Project
Dear Mr. Bailey:
Reference is made to your letter of May 31, 1983 concerning our assistance
on the subject project, by preparing the portion of the D.R.I. statement
relating to existing and projected traffic generations.
As you mentioned in your letter, we have had major personnel cuts in our
traffic planning staff. We will be glad to provide assistance to you in
reviewing the traffic portion of the D.R.I. statement, however, we
recommend that you hire a consultant to prepare it. The traffic portion
is about 25% of a D.R.I. statement and it requires many hundreds of man
hours to prepare such a study.
Please do not hesitate to contact us when your consultant has completed
the statement.
Very truly yours,
William M. Powell
Director
