SUMMARY OF COMMENTS :
1. Preserve and enhance natural environment
2. Low-impact mixed use
3. Multi-use and multi-purpose recreation trails through out island
4. Ensure safety (concern about wake in lagoon)
5. Sustainable and environmentally friendly practices
VIRGINIAVIRGINIA KEYKEY MASTERMASTER PLANPLAN May 20, 2009 PREVIEWPREVIEW PRESENTATIONPRESENTATION PRELIMINARY MASTER PLAN PRESENTATION PUBLIC CONSENSUS BUILDING PUBLIC MEETING #3
SUMMARY OF COMMENTS :
1. Ensure Sustainability of the Virginia Key Master Plan (Access and Traffic, Environmental Concerns with Boat Ramp location, night lighting, budget for development of plans, etc)
2. Promote Cultural Resources on the Key (i.e. Marine Stadium, Historic Virginia Key Beach Park, and others)
3. Concerns about programming of various uses in the Marine Stadium Basin and the mix of passive boating activities with motorized boat activities (i.e. Marina Wet Slips, Dry Stack etc). Propose a “No Wake” zone.
4. Conserve and celebrate Natural Resources (Bill Sadowski Critical Wildlife Area, etc)
5. Public Access for all (windsurfers, boaters, beach goers, nature lovers, rowers/kayakers, current users of Key, bikers, etc)

VIRGINIAVIRGINIA KEYKEY MASTERMASTER PLANPLAN May 20, 2009 PREVIEWPREVIEW PRESENTATIONPRESENTATION TRAFFIC SUMMARY ¾Rickenbacker Causeway is functioning adequately within Virginia Key
¾Additional traffic generated by proposed land uses within Master Plan will be mitigated with proposed improvements, including: ‐ Additional Turn Lanes ‐ Increased Storage Capacity of Existing Turn Lanes ‐ Improved Intersection Angle ‐ New Traffic Signal ‐ Improved Beach Access ‐ Transit Improvements ‐ Improved Pedestrian Facilities ‐ Improved Bicycle Facilities
VIRGINIAVIRGINIA KEYKEY MASTERMASTER PLANPLAN May 20, 2009 PREVIEWPREVIEW PRESENTATIONPRESENTATION TRAFFIC SUMMARY Infrequent Congestion (bumper‐to‐bumper traffic) within Virginia Key is caused by bottlenecks that occur outside of the study area, such as: ‐ At Entrances to Crandon Park During Peak Event Days ‐ At Toll Plaza including Brickell Avenue Intersection and I‐95 Entrance Ramp ‐ Transition from 6 to 4 Lanes (from Virginia Key to Crandon Park)
VIRGINIAVIRGINIA KEYKEY MASTERMASTER PLANPLAN May 20, 2009 PREVIEWPREVIEW PRESENTATIONPRESENTATION TRAFFIC SUMMARY ¾Traffic Problems that Occur Outside Virginia Key could be Improved by: ‐ Installing Sunpass at Toll Plaza ‐ Implementing a Parking Management Plan for Crandon Park During Peak Event Days (i.e. Variable Message Parking Signs) ‐ Improvements at the Brickell Avenue Intersection and I‐95 Entrance Ramp
¾Parking Improvements for Hobie Beach Include: ‐ Provide Parking Garages on N. Side of Rickenbacker Causeway (Included in Master Plan) ‐ Provide a Pedestrian Bridge Between New Parking Garages and Hobie Beach (Included in Master Plan)
¾The Hobie Beach Parking Improvements will Improve Traffic Flow and Enhance Safety within Virginia Key by: ‐ Eliminating Vehicles from Stopping on Rickenbacker Causeway or Continuously Accessing the Causeway to find parking spaces within Hobie Beach

• Beneficial reuse is fully achievable:
– Special engineering and institutional controls will be required to protect the public
– Brownfield funding grants should be investigated
• Coordination is the key to success:
– The Landfill Closure Plan, Master Plan, and reuse designs must be coordinated to avoid the potential for significant additional redesign costs
– Regulating agencies must be made fully aware of and agree to the closure and master plans to avoid possible permitting delays and redesigns
