Since 1947, the Urban Land Institute’s (ULI) Advisory Services Program has been assisting communities by bringing together week-long panels of seasoned real estate, planning, landscape architecture, financing, marketing, and development experts to provide unbiased pragmatic advice on complex land use and development issues. Several years ago, the ULI Southeast Florida/ Caribbean District Council began providing panel services of one or two days to address specific local government issues in areas such as housing, parking, redevelopment, and future land use development. The District Council has 750members spread along the east coast of Florida from Indian River County through the Florida Keys and from the Caribbean. How Do TAPs Work? A sponsor requests the services of a TAP with regard to a specific issue that can be addressed by a panel of experts in one or two days. The District Council assists the sponsor in refining the scope of the assignment and convenes a panel to address those specific issues. The sponsor works within ULI guidelines to provide background information to ULI panelists prior to the panel’s convening. When convened, members of the TAP view the subject site, hear from public and private stakeholders, and then deliberate on the assigned issues. At the conclusion of its work, the panel presents an oral report to stakeholders; that is followed by a written report within approximately six weeks.

    I-95 at Broward Boulevard Interchange Broward County, Florida SR-9/I-95@SR 842/Broward Boulevard from West of SW 24 Avenue to East of NW/SW 18 Avenue Project Development & Environment (PD&E) Study Financial Project ID Number: 435513-1-22-02 Efficient Transportation Decision Making (ETDM) No.: 14226 FDOT District 4 Public Kick-Off Meeting – Wednesday, November 9, 2016 The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), District Four, has initiated a Project Development and Environment (PD&E) Study for State Road 9/Interstate 95 (I-95) at SR 842/Broward Boulevard from west of SW 24 Avenue to east of NW/SW 18 Avenue and on I-95 from north of Davie Boulevard to south of Sunrise Boulevard. PROJECT PURPOSE AND NEED The primary purpose of this study is to develop and evaluate design concepts to improve traffic flow to and from I-95 and along Broward Boulevard, connectivity between the I-95 Express Lanes and Broward Boulevard, and intermodal connectivity. More efficient connections between the I-95 Express Lanes and Broward Boulevard, as well as the surrounding intermodal facilities, are desired. The proposed improvements will address automobile, transit, bicycle, and pedestrian modes and will ensure the study area continues to meet mobility and safety goals as travel demand continues to grow. The primary need for this project is to reduce traffic congestion, provide additional system connections, and plan for the long-term multi-modal options of the Broward Blvd. Park and Ride Lot and Transit Station. PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT FDOT has implemented a public involvement program that began in September 2016 as a part of this PD&E Study.

  • South Florida Transit Resource Guide
    SECOND EDITION Improving the Connection between Transit and Land Use SOUTH FLORIDA TRANSIT RESOURCE GUIDE June 2015 June 15, 2015 Dear Colleague: The South Florida Regional Transportation Authority (SFRTA) is pleased to introduce the second edition of the South Florida Transit Resource Guide, which demonstrates the vital connection between transportation and land use throughout Broward, Miami-Dade, and Palm Beach Counties. The first edition was well received and was awarded an honorable mention in the 2010 Transportation Planning Excellence Awards sponsored by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Federal Transit Administration (FTA). Decisions involving transportation and land use directly affect our quality of life and the economic vitality of the region. The choices we make influence how much free time we have, where we live and work, our recreational activities, how we travel, the state of our environment, and so much more. The SFRTA seeks to coordinate, develop and implement, in cooperation with all appropriate levels of government, private enterprise and citizens a regional transportation system in South Florida that ensures mobility, the advancement of sustainable growth and improvement in the quality of life for future generations. Increased development around Tri-Rail stations not only positively impacts Tri-Rail ridership, but can also influence regional growth as it pertains to transportation and land use. Station area- development decisions are governed by the city or county in which each station is located. This publication profiles the many factors which affect how the cities and counties promote station- area development. In summary, we hope this document provides the information needed to help communities and organizations make decisions which can improve the connection between land use and transportation.

  • Broward County Historical Timeline Booklet
    BR CelebratiOng thWe Art oAf C RD ommunity 100 1915 - 2015 Broward County History A Timeline Funding for this publication was provided through a grant from the Florida Humanities Council with funds from the National Endowment for the Humanities. BROWARD COUNTY BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS Standing from left to right: Chip LaMarca • Lois Wexler • Dale V. C. Holness • Barbara Sharief • Mark D. Bogen • Beam Furr • Stacy Ritter Seated from left to right: Vice Mayor Martin David Kiar • Mayor Tim Ryan A Broward County Historical Timeline Introduction History tells us that much occurred on the land that in 1915 became Broward County, Florida. About 2,000 years ago, the Tequesta hunted, gathered, and lived on the land. But by the mid-eighteenth century, they were gone. In the late 1700’s, people from the Bahamas became the first known white settlers on the New River. Florida became a U.S. Territory in 1821 and other Americans settled in the area relying on fishing, salvaging, and farming. The First and Second Seminole Wars and the Civil War came and ended and forever left their respective historical marks. As the end of the 1800’s draws nigh, what is to become Broward County can be seen taking shape. We want to thank the Florida Humanities Council for its grant funding, making this project possible in celebration of Broward County’s Centennial. It is the hope that this brief timeline will instill a sense of pride in the Broward County community and encourage you to dig deeper into your knowledge and understanding of the County’s rich and incredibly entertaining history.
