136th Street Questions: When did Palmetto Bay leaders agree to the MEGA multi-path? A question of transparency.

Or, is it as simple as Pinecrest and Miami-Dade County are having their way with the current elected officials of Palmetto Bay, so our officials quietly fold and allow things to happen rather than attempting an advocacy on behalf of their residents the current mayor and Council know they can't prevail. 

Multiple resolutions were passed both under my administration as well as under current Mayor Cunningham for a shared project. Unfortunately a shade has been pulled down over the transparency that existed prior to December 2019, when significant information, most notably the resolutions and past minutes that were removed from public access on the website. 

I can no longer research for myself. I have to ask how did we get to our current Palmetto Bay leaders agree to a 10 foot wide MEGA multi-use path solely on the Palmetto Bay side. See the post immediately below for more details and background links.

It was not long ago, February of 2019, when this current mayor and council took the following action in once again, approving BIKE LANES:

Now that money appears to be diverted to a much different project. Now, unless people speak up, the Palmetto Bay side of SW 136th Street risks looking like:

• Is this the future vision for Palmetto Bay?
• When and why was this project changed without a public hearing on the matter?
• Have any objections, or even inquiries been made to either RJ Behar and Co, Inc., or to Miami-Dade County as to the change?
• Did I miss a Palmetto Bay resolution approving this  MEGA multi-path?
• Why is the information not being put out to the Palmetto Bay public?

There are more questions, but I don't want to overwhelm this council at this time.

I'd like some answers, but I am certainly not holding my breath waiting for any.
