Miami Gardens, Florida 33056
On May 28, 2014, Council adopted Ordinance No. 2014-09-320, authorizing the borrowing of sixty
million dollars ($60,000,000); authorizing the issuance of City of Miami Gardens General Obligation
Bonds to pay costs of, remodeling reconstructing, constructing, reconfiguring, retrofitting,
furnishing and equipping City parks and parks facilities, purchasing crime prevention equipment
for law enforcement assistance via electronic means, providing facilities for expanding community
activities in parks, and renovating, constructing and purchasing parks facilities and land for new or
expanded parks.
The City Council initially approved the Bond Implementation Plan (BIP) at the February 25, 2015
Council meeting. The last amendment to the BIP was approved at the December 9, 2015 Council
meeting. The BIP outlines various park and public safety improvement projects.
Current Situation:
Included in the construction scope is a Florida Power and Light (FPL) pad mounted transformer
located next to the Bunche Pool building. The new electrical service for the Bunche Pool building
will require the dedication of an easement by the City of Miami Gardens for the underground power
cables to the pad mounted transformer. The easement provides for undergrounding primary
service from NW 22nd Avenue right of way to a new pad mounted transformer located next to the
building.
Proposed Action:
It is recommended that the City Council approved the dedication of the easement to Florida Power
and Light requirements for the new electrical service for the Bunche Pool site.
