Topics getting the most attention in North Miami public meetings, ranked by how frequently they are discussed.
3 issues in roads with high priority
Citywide traffic calming program expansion
The council green-lit the county agreement enabling Phase Zero: 35 speed tables and radar feedback signs across the city, with District 4 getting only six tables despite its speeding complaints. The full plan costs over $13 million over five years.
Northeast 3rd Court drainage improvements
A $1.6 million drainage project will install catch basins, pipe and exfiltration trenches between NE 131st and 135th Streets. One resident says the stretch north of 135th still floods with sewage and has been promised fixes for four years.
NE 146th Street traffic congestion and railroad crossing
Residents and commissioners called NE 146th Street's rush-hour traffic a nightmare, and the new project will add more cars. The developer proffered roughly 400 feet of additional turn-lane queue length east and west of the tracks, but the west side depends on the railroad's cooperation.
