As you are aware, the Department is agreeable to accepting NW 3rd Avenue (Flagler to NW 8 St/on-ramp I-95). In addition, we propose a segment of NW 14th Street. Both roadways are highlighted in the attached table. At this time, the Department does not identify any new information to warrant acceptance of the below identified roadways. As you may be aware, these roads serve primarily residential areas, with shorter distance local trips that are distributed between local streets and arterial roadways. These low volume/local trip roadways are not characteristic of the State Highway System and are also inconsistent with PPM Standards. • NW 11 STREET (NW 27 Ave — NW 42 Ave) • NW 2 Avenue (NW 36 St — NW 79 St) • SW 32 Avenue (Coral Way —South Dixie Highway) If the City is agreeable with the proposal for NW 3rd Avenue and NW 14th Street, please let me know, and I will begin developing the transfer agreement. Please contact me if you have any questions. Thank you.

It appears that there is no discernible reference to 1 multi-lane/four lane roadways as a specific criteria. The referenced Florida Statute 335.0415 states that transfers of roadways to and from the State Highway System are based on the following general criteria: a. National defense needs b. Travel to and through urban areas c. Access to intermodal facilities d. Access to regional public facilities e. Disaster preparedness and emergency evacuation And per the current Functional Classification Map obtained from your office, it appears that state roads within the City of Miami limits are currently classified as Urban Principal Arterial or Urban Minor Arterial. The following roadways that we have offered to the State are consistent with such classification, provide connectivity to existing State roadways, as well as comply with the criteria set forth in F.S. 335.0415: • NW 3 Avenue (Flagler St - NW 8 ST/on-ramp to 1-95) Multi -lane, Urban Major Collector • NW 11 STREET (NW 27 Ave — NW 42 Ave) Two-lane, Urban Major Collector • NW 2 Avenue (NW 36 St— NW 79 St) Two-lane, Urban Major Collector • SW 32 Avenue (Coral Way —South Dixie Highway) Two-lane, Urban Major Collector Further, we are aware that a number of roadways in the Miami -Dade area that are under the State Highway System are not necessarily multi-lane/four lane corridors. Specifically, Krome Avenue (Unincorporated), NW 57th Avenue (in City of West Miami), and State Road 7, NW/SW 8 Avenue between NW 4 St and SW 8 St (in City of Miami) are two-lane roadways under the State Highway System. Consistent with the established criteria, as set forth in F.S. 335.0415, which your office has graciously referred us to, and the fact that certain other state roads in Miami -Dade County are currently two -lanes, we respectfully request your reconsideration of our offer and to accept the aforesaid roadways from the City of Miami. We await your affirmative response to enable us proceed with appropriate legislation for the transfer process. Thanks.

The attachments are described below: 1) Exhibit #1 is Florida Statute Chapter 335.0415 which broadly outlines criteria to be considered in evaluating transfers to and from the State highway system. 2 2) Exhibit#2 is the FDOT Urban Boundary and Functional Classification Handbook which outlines the classification criteria used by the Department for the functional classification update. 3) The FHWA link (provided below) to the publication which provides a good overview of classification guidelines and criteria. http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/planning/processes/statewide/related/highway functional classifications/section00.cfm 4) Exhibit#3 is the 2010 Functional Classification map showing the classifications for the City of Miami. 5) Exhibit#4 is the Functional Classification coordination correspondence between FDOT and the City. 6) Please be aware that in April, 2013, the District did an evaluation of 4 lane roadways in the City of Miami which could be potential candidates for transfer to FDOT. The analysis showed that most major 4 lane roads within the City are under the jurisdiction of Miami -Dade County. The few remaining 4 lane City roadways did not meet the guidelines and criteria for functional classification as State highways, and therefore are not good candidates for transfer to FDOT. Please let me know if you have any questions or wish to discuss. Thank you.
