PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT/HIGHWAY CONSTRUCTION AND ENGINEERING DIVISION RECOMMENDS APPROVAL

NW 7 Avenue is a County road within the municipal limits of the City of Fort Lauderdale. CAMM Educational Enterprises, Inc. (CAMM) and the City of Fort Lauderdale (City) desire to improve the landscaping on the east side of NW 7 Avenue along the frontage of its property which lies between Broward Boulevard and NW 2 Street.

The proposed Revocable License Agreement (RLA) will allow CAMM to install landscaping, irrigation and related improvements within the County right-of-way for NW 7 Avenue and will obligate the property owner to maintain the improvements. The landscaping improvements will comply with the Broward County Naturescape Program and Florida-Friendly Landscaping principles.  In the event that CAMM fails to maintain the improvements, the City is obligated to perform the maintenance.  The RLA also allows the County to terminate the agreement with or without cause at any time. If the RLA is terminated, CAMM must remove all improvements within the licensed right-of-way and restore the property.
