    South Florida East Coast Corridor FINAL ALTERNATIVES ANALYSIS REPORT October 2011 Federal Aid No. FTAX004 FTA Grant No. FL-90-X372-07 FM No. 417031-1-22-01 Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach Counties, Florida Contract: C-8F66 2 SFECCTA Alternatives Analysis Report SOUTH FLORIDA EAST COAST CORRIDOR TRANSIT ANALYSIS Lead Agencies: Florida Department of Transportation, Federal Transit Administration Title of the Proposed Action: South Florida East Coast Corridor Transit Analysis ABSTRACT: This report documents the development and analysis of alternatives for implementing reliable, high quality transit in the 85-mile Florida East Coast corridor located in southeast Florida. The purpose of the project is to increase transit options for travel in southeast Florida, support the Eastward Ho! Initiative of the counties in the region, encourage redevelopment and economic growth in the coastal cities, and supplement the existing highway network. These goals were developed in cooperation with the counties, cities, metropolitan planning organizations, regional planning organizations, civic and business organizations, and the general public. The study has proceeded in two phases. The first phase led to the development of modally generic alternatives that were refined into four, specific modal alternatives in Phase 2, which is the subject of this report. These four alternatives: TSM, BRT, Integrated Rail “DMU”, and Integrated Rail “Push- Pull,” were defined and compared against both a No Build alternative and against each other. Each of these alternatives incorporates new transit service along the Florida East Coast Railway (FEC) cor- ridor with existing transit service operated by each of the three counties in the region (Palm Beach, Broward, and Miami-Dade) and Tri-Rail.

  • Complete Streets Policy 1.1
    Acknowledgements The City of Fort Lauderdale’s Complete Streets Manual was established based on the Broward County Complete Streets Guidelines developed by the Broward MPO, with additional influences by the New Haven, CT Complete Streets Guidebook, and the Philadelphia Complete Streets Design Handbook. Broward County’s Complete Streets Guidelines document was funded through a Transforming Our Community’s Health (TOUCH) grant, which is part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Community Transformation Grants to support public health efforts to reduce chronic disease, promote healthier lifestyles, reduce health disparities and control health care spending. The Broward County Complete Streets Guidelines were adapted from the Los Angeles County Model Design Manual for Living Streets. Special acknowledgement is made to all of the hard working committee members that spent many hours developing the manuals that were used to develop this one including the Broward Complete Streets Initiative Technical Advisory Committee (TAC), the Los Angeles County Complete Streets Committee, Philadelphia and the New Haven Complete Streets Steering Committees. Foreword The City of Fort Lauderdale has adopted a Resolution to follow Smart Growth Principles in decisions being made within the city on investments and project reviews. An important tool to implement Smart Growth Principles is a Complete Streets Manual. Complete Streets are an essential ingredient in creating livable, walkable neighborhoods and reconnecting the community with destinations. The City’s efforts to create a multimodal, pedestrian-friendly community accentuated by the Fast Forward Fort Lauderdale Visioning Process together with the regional efforts to implement Complete Streets, has driven the City to create its own Complete Streets Manual based on the Broward County Complete Streets Guidelines with influences also from the cities of New Haven, CT and Philadelphia, PA Complete Streets Guidelines.

  • OPPORTUNITY ZONE INVESTMENT PROSPECTUS Tamarac, Florida Miami–Fort Lauderdale–West Palm Beach Metro Area WHY INVEST in TAMARAC, FLORIDA?
    OPPORTUNITY ZONE INVESTMENT PROSPECTUS Tamarac, Florida Miami–Fort Lauderdale–West Palm Beach Metro Area WHY INVEST IN TAMARAC, FLORIDA? Tamarac is Open for Business Situated in the heart of Broward County in South Florida between the Florida Everglades and the Atlantic Ocean, Tamarac is a rapidly growing and changing city. Tamarac’s residential population has grown by 16% since 2000 as part of the South Florida region’s population surge. Originally a retirement community, Tamarac is becoming a younger city with a decreasing median age as new families are added to the community, and median incomes are rising as well. We are a multicultural, multigenerational thriving community at the heart of a metro area with 6 million people. We’re an agile and financially resilient community with a central location and untold potential. The business community is investing heavily in Tamarac. In the last few years, developers have added more than 1,300 new residential units here, and several hundred more are in the pipeline. New hotels are currently being constructed, and a major mixed-use project known as “Tamarac Village” is under construction that will create a new downtown area for our City. We’ve had several major multi-million dollar corporate expansions recently in our Commerce Park, as well as a major new spec industrial project breaking ground totaling 350,000 square feet. With development booming in Tamarac, we’re focusing our economic development efforts on our commercial corridors and revitalizing aging and underutilized shopping centers. One of the City’s targeted commercial redevelopment areas, Four Corners Shopping District, falls within our federally designated Opportunity Zone (also designated for the federal New Market Tax Credit and Community Development Block Grant programs).

Community Background Report Town of Lauderdale-By-The-Sea Boundaries North: Pine Avenue South: Flamingo Drive East: Atlantic Ocean West: Intracoastal Waterway Community Type: Municipality Report Last Updated: November,2011 History The Town of Lauderdale-By-The-Sea was first incorporated in 1927, but its charter was revoked by the state in 1933, during the Great Depression. It remained under county jurisdiction until a new charter was instituted in 1947 and validated in 1949.1 The town considers the date of its founding to be 1947.2 The entire town is located on a long, thin barrier island separated from the mainland by the Intracoastal Waterway.3 It is interesting to note that the town has a total area of 1.5 square miles, of which 0.73 square miles (59.35 percent) is water.4 Lauderdale-By-The-Sea’s shoreline is popular with beach divers, due to a unique snorkel trail and a coral reef, all within 100 yards of the beach.5 The waters just off the town’s shore are also home to the marine ruins of the SS Copenhagen, a 19th-century steamer that sank in 1900.
