City Commission -- Consideration of a resolution approving the Virginia key Master Plan
Thursday, October 8th, 2009
Miami City Hall, Commission Chambers


Virginia Key is located midway from mainland City of Miami and the Village of Key Biscayne and is accessible via the Rickenbacker Causeway.

The City of Miami is seeking to implement a master planning process that studies Virginia Key in its entirety.  It is the Master Plan’s intent to develop meaningful waterfront and public open space areas; offer policies for the use, development, and management of land; the protection and enhancement of natural resources while providing the necessary infrastructure and traffic flow to serve future improvements to the island.

The City’s population growth, coupled with current urban development trends and demands for waterfront access and recreation has created the need for a comprehensive master plan study. The proposed Virginia Key Master Plan will emphasize the opportunities for mixed-use waterfront development, integrate and preserve the historic Virginia Key Beach Park, as well as make recommendations for future island wide improvements and protection of remaining public beaches, parks, and conservation areas.

The planning and landscape architectural firm EDSA was chosen through a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) process to develop a Master Plan that represents a unified vision for Virginia Key.
