AGENDA ITEM WORDING:
Approval for the Mayor to transmit a letter to FDOT concurring with the proposed 2010 Federal Highway
Administration (FHWA) Urban Boundary for US 1 in Monroe County. No changes in the Urban
Boundary area proposed.
ITEM BACKGROUND:
The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) District Six has initiated the decennial review of
the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Urban Boundary and revaluation of the Functional
Classification of federal -aid roadways. US 1 is the only federal -aid roadway in the Florida Keys, and
FHWA requires FDOT to coordinate with Monroe County as part of the review process.
The first part of the process is the determination of the FHWA urban boundary, which is used
primarily for reporting and for capital project funding. FDOT's proposed 2010 FHWA Urban
Boundary Map includes the majority of the US 1 corridor within the urban boundary. Two exceptions
include small portions of US 1 at Layton and at Duck Key (see attached map).
Once the BOCC approves the map, the FDOT will forward the Proposed 2010 Urban Boundary Map
to FHWA for final approval. The FDOT has indicated that the agency will return to the BOCC for
approval of Phase 2 - the re-evaluation of the Functional Roadway Classification later in the year after
Phase 1 has been approved by FHWA.
