This proposed street closure is necessary as part of facility/campus expansion for a Dementia Center. It is a major improvement for the area and an update to medical campus that has been in existence for about 75 years. The facilities employ significant numbers of people from neighboring community. Streets that are proposed to be closed/vacated are currently only servicing abutting lots owned by the applicant - Miami Jewish Health System, Inc. - and are currently being used as part of campus already. Streets are currently still being utilized for circulation purposes. There are access points to facilities from main streets. 3. Public service vehicles would be adversely affected, however, the applicant has agreed to provide an emergency vehicle access master plan for review and/or approval by corresponding departments. The facility is not being serviced by City of Miami Solid Waste. It is being serviced by private solid waste company. 4. As part of Special Area Plan (SAP), the new facility will create landscaped public spaces resulting in better environment for pedestrian activities. The Plat and Street Committee members voted 7 in favor and 0 in denial of this street and easement closure request. r, JS/AB/ab C.: Nzeribe Ihekwaba, Ph.D., P.E., Assistant City Manager/Chief of Operations Survey Development and Roadway Plans Central March 16, 2017 Miami Jewish Health Systems, Inc.
