Dear Elected Officials,
Disclaimer - I am a member of the Arts and Rec Committee, but this issue falls outside the
purview of the committee. I am submitting this as a concerned citizen.
The listed salary for the prospective Baker Center manager is $37,419. For a 40 hour work
week with two weeks off, that is $18.70 an hour, but by making this a salaried position the
city has removed the possibility of overtime. The city is offering a police trainee $19.70 an
hour and they have no supervisory or planning responsibilities. Amazon starts at S15/hour
for a job that requires very little by way of interaction with children or seniors. The base pay
for a starting teacher in Duval is $48,700. By proposing to under -pay the Baker center
manager the city has devalued the children who attend there. We need to pay
someone a liveable salary to attract and retain a qualified individual. 37K is NOT A
LIVEABLE wage. We are asking someone to accept 37K in a city with a median income of
68K. For $37K you are not going to attract someone with the skills and experience to fulfill
the stated requirements of the job.
I imagine the ideal Baker Center Manager to be the representative of the city in the
community, much like Gail Baker herself was. I imagine this person as either a newly minted
college grad with a degree in human services or health and education promotion who is full
of new ideas and enthusiasm, or perhaps as a retired teacher who can afford to combine
service with a pension and will work for half of what they were making in their last years of
teaching. Below are the job duties for center manager taken directly from the city listing.
have bolded those that require someone who can interact confidently with all people of the
community both old, young and in between as well as with vendors and other city
employees providing services to the center. The requirements listed below also require
someone to be available outside of a defined 40 hour work week. We are asking someone
to work more like a 50 hour work week. With those hours we are paying more like $15/hour.
I suggest we do the right thing and change the salary for the Baker Center Manager to an
amount at least equivalent to a starting teacher salary. Then we at least have a chance of
getting someone who can execute the job well and allow Trenia to stop focusing on the
centers and to get back to her supervisory capacity and forward looking planning.
Sincerely,
Jane Stevens.

213 Modern Roundabouts
213.1 General
January 1, 2018
This chapter provides design criteria and guidance for the geometric layout of modern
roundabouts. A modern roundabout is a circular intersection in which traffic travels
counterclockwise around a central island, and entering traffic must yield to circulating
traffic. A key design feature of the modern roundabout is the alignment of the entry lane
with receiving circulatory roadway. Figure 213.9.1 illustrates the characteristics of a
single -lane modern roundabout.

FDOT Desiqn Manual
January 1, 2018
Only single -lane and two-lane modern roundabouts are to be constructed on the SHS.
Partial three -lane roundabouts may be acceptable under certain conditions.
Roundabout designs must be submitted to the Central Office for review as early as
practical, but no later than Phase II design submittal. See FDM 301.4 for the roundabout
review submittal requirements. The design for a roundabout on the SHS requires the
approval of the State Roadway Design Engineer.
213.1.1 Roundabout Evaluation
Modification for Non -Conventional Projects:
Delete FDM 213.1.1 and see RFP for requirements.
Modern roundabouts provide substantial safety and operational benefits under a wide
range of traffic conditions. FHWA has designated roundabouts as one of nine proven
safety countermeasures because of their ability to substantially reduce the types of
crashes that result in severe injury or loss of life. Studies show that modern roundabouts
provide a higher level of safety than any other intersection type: including pedestrian and
bicycle modes.
The Department is committed to installing modern roundabouts on the SHS where it
makes sense to do so. A roundabout alternative must be evaluated in accordance with
FDM 116 when:
• New signalization is proposed
• Major reconstruction of an existing signalized intersection is proposed
• A change in an un -signalized intersection control is required.
An evaluation is not required for minor operational improvements such as changes to
signal phasing, or for signal replacement projects where the primary purpose is to
upgrade deficient equipment and installations.
To construct a modern roundabout on the SHS, one of the following must be met:
(1) MUTCD traffic signal warrants 1 or 2 is met,
(2) Documented high frequency of severe crashes,
(3) Context appropriate operational improvement on low speed facilities, or
(4) Need for speed management when transitioning from a high speed context
classification to a lower speed context classification.

213.2.2 Two-lane Roundabout
Provide adequate pavement area for the simultaneous passage of the design vehicle and
a passenger vehicle through the roundabout and for turning movements. The design
vehicle swept paths must stay within the travel lanes without encroaching on the inside
and outside gutters, with the exception of the inside gutter of the circulatory roadway.
Develop swept path diagrams for all turning movements in the following combinations:
• Design vehicle in the outside lane and passenger vehicle in the inside lane
• Design vehicle in the inside lane and passenger vehicle in the outside lane
It is acceptable for the design vehicle path to encroach on the adjacent travel lane within
the circulatory roadway as long as there is sufficient space for the passenger vehicle plus
two feet of clearance between the two vehicles. When truck volume is very low, consider
allowing the truck -trailer to command both lanes to complete the maneuver.
213.3 Speed Control
Controlling entry, circulating, and exit speeds of vehicles as they navigate through a
roundabout has a significant impact on safety and operations. Design roundabouts that
limit the speed of approaching traffic and promote consistency in the relative speeds
between conflicting traffic streams.
Roundabout design features that serve to control vehicular speeds include
(1) Prominent landscaping in the central island: Prominent landscaping serves to
increase visibility of the central island and provide a visual queue to approaching
drivers that they are entering a low speed environment. See FDM 228 for
landscape design requirements.
(2) Raised splitter islands and roadside curb: The segment of roadway adjacent
to a roundabout, characterized by the splitter island in the median with curb and
gutter on the outside, provides a speed transition zone that promotes slower
speeds. Lengthening this transition zone on high speed facilities can be an
effective strategy for slowing down traffic prior to entering a roundabout.
(3) Hard Geometry: The most effective way to control vehicular speeds at
roundabouts is to introduce hard geometric features designed to slow drivers
down. These features control speeds by introducing deflection and curvature into
the path of the driver. Design parameters have a dramatic impact on the driver's
entry, circulating, and exit speeds; e.g., inscribed circle diameter, lane width, entry
width, curb locations.

213.3.1 Fastest Path
January 1, 2018
The effectiveness of speed control within a roundabout can be determined by conducting
a fastest path performance check. The fastest path is defined as the smoothest, flattest
path possible for a single vehicle, in the absence of other traffic and ignoring all lane
markings, traversing through the entry, around the central island, and out the exit. A
detailed discussion of the fastest path performance check is provided in NCNRP 672.
Entry speed for a single -lane approach is restricted to 25 mph or less. Entry speed for a
2 -lane approach is restricted to 30 mph or less. The relative difference between entry
and exit speeds is to be no more than 10 mph.
213.4 Bicycle and Pedestrian Accommodation
Exhibit 213-2 includes standard details for splitter islands, pedestrian facilites, and
bicycle facilities. The following requirements for bicycle and pedestrian facilities apply:
(1) Provide sidewalks in accordance with FDM 222 for projects with pedestrian
facilities on the approach roadways.
(2) Provide crosswalks at every approach leg when sidewalks are present.
(a) Provide curb ramps consistent with FDM 222 and Standard Plans. Index
522-002.
(b) Orient crosswalks perpendicular to the roadway to minimize pedestrian
crossing distance.
(c) At each crosswalk location provide a minimum 6 -foot wide and 10 -foot long
pedestrian refuge area within the splitter island. Locate the refuge area
approximately 20 feet from the outside edge of the circulatory roadway.
(d) Provide detectable warning surfaces in accordance with FDM 222 at each
curb ramp and pedestrian refuge area.
(e) Provide pedestrian crossing lighting in accordance with FDM 231.
(3) For 2 -lane roundabouts, terminate bicycle lanes or shoulders approximately 100
feet from the circulatory roadway and provide bail-out ramps. Installation of bicycle
bail-out ramps is optional for single -lane roundabouts. When bicycle bail-out
ramps are provided, the desired sidewalk width is 10 feet, but should not be less
than 8 feet.

213.5 Splitter Islands
See Exhibit 213-2 for an illustration of splitter island details. Splitter islands are to use a
traffic separator or Type E curb.
Provide raised splitter islands that are a minimum 100 feet in length and a minimum of
6 feet wide at the crosswalks. An island less than 100 feet in length, but not less than
50 feet, may be considered for roundabouts located on a highway with a design speed of
35 mph or less. Provide an island at least 150 feet in length for roundabouts located on
a highway with a design speed of 50 mph or greater.
Extend the splitter island beyond the end of the exit curve to discourage exiting traffic
from crossing into the path of approaching traffic.
213.6 Truck Apron
Use the standard truck apron design illustrated in Figure 213.6.1. When circulatory lanes
are concrete pavement, use red color additive to the concrete truck apron to provide a
contrast.

213.7 Signing and Pavement Markings
Well-designed signing and pavement markings will enhance safety and traffic operations
by clarifying the rules of the road and proper lane assignments to drivers as they navigate
through the roundabout.
Follow the details presented in Exhibits 213-3, 213-4, and 213-5 when developing
roundabout signing and pavement marking plans to promote consistency throughout the
state.
Use the standard left -turn arrow with a circular dot on the left-most lane of the approach
to multi -lane roundabouts as shown in Standard Plans, Index 711-001. Use standard
arrows within the circulatory roadway.
