Resolution
Private Road Naming - Island Drive
Purpose of Item:
A resolution of the Miami City Commission naming a certain private road within Brickell
Key as "Island Drive".
Background of Item:
Brickell Key is a private island within the City which is accessed via a public right-of-
way, SW 8th Street, and features a network of internal private roads that connect the
various buildings and amenities on the island. Swire Brickell Key Hotel, Ltd., and Swire
Jadeco LLC (collectively, "Swire") are the owners of certain land located on Brickell Key
(the "Property"), as more particularly described in Exhibit "A". Swire proposes to
improve a portion of the Property with a private road (the "Private Road Area") to be
known as Island Drive, as more particularly described in Exhibit "B". Providing a formal
and distinct designation for the proposed private road will enhance public safety and
future emergency response efforts.
