Background Information:
On March 9, 1995, the City Commission adopted Resolution No. 95-178 directing the permanent prohibition of
vehicular access to certain streets in the Coral Gate neighborhood, including the intersections of Southwest 32nd
Avenue and Southwest 18th Street, and at Southwest 16th Street and Coral Gate Drive, as long as access for
emergency vehicles be provided at all times through the barricades. The City of Miami Fire -Rescue Department
has since opened the Shenandoah fire -rescue facility providing improved emergency service to the Coral Gate
neighborhood, thereby changing the conditions under which the barricades were originally approved. The Police
Department, Fire -Rescue Department and Solid Waste Department have re-evaluated the effects of the permanent
vehicular access restrictions upon their respective operations based on the changed condition, and have expressed
no objection to the elimination of the condition that access for emergency vehicles and pedestrians be provided at
all times through the barricades located at Southwest 32nd Avenue and Southwest 18th Street, and at Southwest
16th Street and Coral Gate Drive, provided that controlled emergency vehicle access be provided at the permanent
barricade located at Southwest 32nd Avenue and Southwest 19th Terrace.
