C.        ENGINEERING & PUBLIC WORKS

 

1.         Staff recommends motion to approve:  Change Order No. 4 with R & D Paving, LLC (R&D) for a contract time extension of 299 days to the Glades Road and Butts Road Intersection Improvements project (R2018-1312). SUMMARY:  Per PPM CW-F-050, the time extension in this change order exceeds staff approval authority, and requires the Board of County Commissioners approval. Change Order No. 4 will compensate R&D for utility delays, and will retroactively extend the contract time by 299 days resulting in a new completion date of June 16, 2020. The final walk through confirming construction was completed per project specification was on July 17, 2020. The 299 day time extension is a direct result of the City of Boca Raton’s cooperation in resolving their utility conflicts, in addition to an AT&T conflict. R&D is also entitled to Suspension of Contract Time (Holidays) per FDOT Spec. 8-6.4. The contract was approved on September 18, 2018, prior to the effective date of the Equal Business Opportunity Ordinance and pursuant to the Small Business Enterprise (SBE) Ordinance at the time. The SBE goal for all contracts was 15%. R&D committed to 21% SBE participation. The SBE participation for this change order is 0%, and the cumulative SBE participation to date, including this change order, is 18.3%. R&D is a Palm Beach County based company. District 4 (YBH)

The contracts will be in effect for 36 months from the date of approval by the Board of County Commissioners. The Affirmative Procurement Initiative selected for these contracts on February 5, 2020, by the Goal Setting Committee is a Small Business Enterprise (SBE) evaluation preference for SBE prime respondents with contracts valued at less than $500,000.

4.         Staff recommends motion to approve: Work Order 2018051-136 in the amount of $1,550,000 to mill and resurface Hypoluxo Road from Military Trail to US 1 utilizing Palm Beach County’s (County) annual asphalt milling and resurfacing contract R2018-1533 (Contract) with Ranger Construction Industries, Inc. (Ranger).  SUMMARY:  Per County PPM CW-F-050, this work order exceeds the $200,000 threshold for staff approvals of work orders to annual contracts, thus requiring approval from the Board of County Commissioners (BCC). Approval of this work order will allow the contractual services necessary to construct the improvements. Prior to this meeting date, approximately $32 million of Ranger’s $48.5 million Contract has been spent or encumbered. On October 16, 2018, the BCC approved the Contract with Ranger to provide milling and resurfacing of County roadways for countywide projects. The Contract was renewed on October 22, 2019, with a 15% mandatory Small Business Enterprise (SBE) goal set as the Affirmative Procurement Initiative. Due to the limited availability of qualified certified SBE subcontractors, the Office of Equal Business Opportunity issued a waiver on January 17, 2020, that reduced the mandatory SBE participation to 5%. On June 2, 2020, the second renewal was approved, and continued with the reduced mandatory SBE participation of 5%. Ranger agreed to 5% SBE participation for this work order. Approval of this work order will result in a cumulative SBE participation of 9.5% for all the work orders issued under the Contract. This project is funded through the infrastructure sales tax.

7.         MOVED TO REGULAR (NOW 6F-1) Staff recommends motion to adopt: a resolution repealing and replacing Resolution R2011-0860, replacing and designating certain parcels of land owned by Palm Beach County (County) as road right-of-way for State Road 7 from Okeechobee Boulevard to 60th Street North (Project). SUMMARY: On June 21, 2011, Resolution R2011-0860 designated certain parcels of land owned by the County as road right-of-way for the Project. A County owned parcel controlled by the County’s Environmental Resources Management Department, known as the Pond Cypress Natural Area, was inadvertently included among these parcels designated as right-of-way. The proposed new resolution will repeal and replace Resolution R2011-0860 with a resolution containing appropriate legal descriptions to correct the road right-of-way designations. The corrected road right-of-way designations cover an area of approximately 175 acres. District 6 (YBH)

B) receive and file Grant Adjustment Notice (GAN) 5 for Grant 2020-JAGC-PALM-2-Y5-030; and

 

C) authorize the County Administrator or designee to execute the grant award, amendments, documents, and electronic grant reporting forms, related to this grant, on behalf of the Board of County Commissioners, after approval of legal sufficiency by the County Attorney’s Office, and within budget allocations.

 

SUMMARY: Palm Beach County was allocated $127,393 in Federal FY20 (County FY21) funds as part of the JAG Direct Program (CFDA#16.738) for expenditure during the period October 1, 2020 through September 30, 2022. The Criminal Justice Commission (CJC) approved recommendations made by the CJC’s Finance Committee to allocate these funds to the existing Palm Beach County Reentry Program. This award will provide $123,571 continuation funding to the Reentry Program. The program provides transitional services to juveniles and adults reentering society from jail and prison. Pursuant to a special condition of this grant, $3,822 will be transferred to PBSO to become NIBRS compliant. In 2016, the FBI formally announced its intention to sunset the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program’s traditional Summary Reporting System and replace it with the UCR Program’s NIBRS by January 1, 2021. The FBI intends for NIBRS to be the law enforcement crime data reporting standard for the nation. Currently all municipalities and PBSO report crime under the FBI’s UCR Program to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) which is designated by the FBI as Florida’s Statistical Analysis Center. FDLE is currently working on NIBRS compliance requirements to be promulgated to municipal police departments and sheriff’s offices in Florida. The emergency procedure, pursuant to Palm Beach County Administrative Code, Section 309, was used because of the limited time for submission of the grant application following the funding announcement. The U.S. DOJ Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Formula Federal FY20 (County FY21) Direct Grant requires the Chief Executive officer support the application for funding by review of the solicitation, application and completion of the Chief Executive Certification, not less than 30 days before the date of the certification. GAN 5 for FDLE award 2020-JAGC-PALM-2-Y5-030, was approved by FDLE on August 8, 2020, to extend the project period from June 30, 2020 through September 30, 2021.

Palm Tran management has endeavored in the Palm Tran Connection Efficiencies Project (CEP) over the last year to evaluate some of the key components of Palm Tran Connections service affecting cost and operational performance; capacity, eligibility and on-time performance. The evaluation analyzed key metrics in these areas and utilized service data to make recommendations to modify the eligibility process, the utilization of non-dedicated transportation providers such as taxis or Transportation Network Companies during high-peak demand and alternative service options for non-ADA trips. The proposal will provide options to better serve Palm Beach County's disabled, senior and transportation disadvantaged communities. At the November 26, 2019, Board of County Commissioners Workshop, staff presented the CEP and provided information that compared Palm Tran Connection service to its peers and federal ADA minimum guidelines for paratransit service. The need for public input is a Federal Transit Administration requirement.

 

The following are recommended for approval:

 

1          Develop Enhanced Eligibility Assessment process.

2.         Modify the reservation window to reduce cancellations.

3.         Study an “Overflow” Service Option (Uber/Lyft/Taxi) to allow paratransit             customers to have alternative transit options.

4.         Develop Non-ADA Service Delivery Options for trips that do not fall within the             ADA service area.

 

The Board directive at the November 26, 2019 BCC Workshop was to move forward with the Enhanced Eligibility Assessment process, modify the reservation window to reduce cancellations from 7 days to 3 days, further assess the “Overflow” Service option and develop Non-ADA Service Delivery Options for potential future implementation.  As a result of COVID-19, staff is recommending pivoting from implementing in-person eligibility interviews as presented at the November 26, 2019 BCC Workshop, to phone interviews to minimize person to person contact during the pandemic.  Additionally, Palm Tran staff will develop the “Overflow” Service option and Non-ADA Service Delivery Options and bring these items back to the Board for consideration in Spring 2021.

A.        PARKS & RECREATION

 

1.         Staff recommends motion to approve: one permanent Park Ranger Supervisor, two permanent Park Rangers, one non-permanent Park Ranger Supervisor and two non-permanent Park Ranger positions to provide after-hour patrol of County parks. SUMMARY:  Currently, Park Rangers provide oversight, monitoring and enforcement of park rules to 84 park properties within the park system from 7:00AM – 11:00PM seven days a week. However, we have seen an increase in vandalism, property damage and ordinance violations within the parks after hours that have required a response from the Palm Beach Sheriff’s Office (PBSO). To ensure we have a 24-hour presence within the park system to deter unwelcome and prohibited conduct or activity, and to allow PBSO Deputies to remain on their scheduled road patrol assignments, we propose adding a small team of Park Ranger personnel to work from 11:00PM – 7:00AM within parks countywide seven days a week. The Park Rangers will be mobile and assigned to work various parks that have experienced higher levels of Parks’ Ordinance violations. The cost for staff salaries to fund this initiative is approximately $251,000 and will be absorbed within the Parks and Recreation FY 21 budget. Staff reviewed several operating scenarios including the use of permit deputies and contractual security services, and determined that the use of Park Rangers was more cost effective and allowed for greater programmatic control.

B.        AIRPORTS

 

1.         Staff recommends motion to approve:  Amendment No. 2 to the General Consulting Agreement with RS&H, Inc. for Consulting/Professional Services in the amount of $3,196,990.03 for the continued performance of professional planning and design services related to the approved Palm Beach County Airports Capital Improvement Program. SUMMARY:  The Consulting Agreement (R2019-0612) with RS&H, Inc. for general airport planning and design was approved on May 7, 2019, in the amount of $2,004,570.58 in order to carry out the approved Capital Improvement Programs for the County’s Airports. Amendment No. 1 was approved on May 5, 2020 (R2020-0414) increasing the total amount of the agreement by $2,304,608.30.  Amendment No. 2 will provide an additional $3,196,990.03 to complete the following tasks: Task I Services – Palm Beach International Airport (PBI) Switchgear Normal Power Distribution System Replacement; PBI Concourse B Expansion Conceptual and Schematic Design; PBI Terminal Public Address System Construction Engineering Inspection  Services – Phase 2; PBI Pre-Conditioned Air and Ground Power Unit Point of Use; PBI Federal Inspection Service Facility and Building 846 Storm Resiliency Modifications Package 3 Construction Documents & Bidding and Award; PBI Terminal Elevator Assessment Report; and Task III Services - Miscellaneous Planning and Engineering Services.  Work to be completed under these Task III Services will be issued in accordance with PPM CW-F-050, by way of a separate proposal or task authorization.  RS&H, Inc. is a Jacksonville, Florida based firm; however, the majority of the work will be managed through their Fort Lauderdale, Florida office in conjunction with several Palm Beach County-based and South Florida-based sub-consultants and firms. A Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) goal of 18% was set for this agreement.  RS&H, Inc. has committed to 23% DBE participation for this agreement. The anticipated DBE participation based upon the currently approved tasks and those contained within this amendment is approximately 35%. The current paid to date DBE participation is approximately 20%. The DBE participation for this Amendment is approximately 51.21%. Pursuant to changes to Chapter 332, Florida Statutes, effective October 1, 2020, a governing body of a commercial service airport may not approve purchases of contractual services in excess of the Category Five threshold amount of $325,000 provided in Section 287.017, Florida Statutes, on a consent agenda. This amendment exceeds the threshold amount and must be approved on the regular agenda. Countywide (AH)

C.        FACILITIES DEVELOPMENT AND OPERATIONS

 

1.         Staff recommends motion to:

 

            A) approve an Interlocal Agreement with the City of Boca Raton (City) pursuant to which the County will develop and maintain a 400’ self-supported public safety radio communications tower and associated improvements, on land owned by City;

 

            B) approve a Temporary Construction Easement (TCE) for the County to construct the tower;

 

            C) approve an Access and Management Easement (Easement) for County to operate, maintain and repair the tower; and

 

            D) authorize the Director of Facilities, Development & Operations (FDO)  to execute standard use agreements (Use Agreements) providing the standard terms and conditions for all authorized tower users and setting forth the terms for payment of use, maintenance and renewal/ replacement fees.

 

            SUMMARY: The Interlocal Agreement provides for the County to fund, design, construct, manage and maintain a 400’ self-supported public safety radio tower and associated improvements, on land owned by City. The approval of the construction contract will be presented to the BCC for consideration pursuant to a separate board item. Upon substantial completion of the tower construction, the City shall be the owner of the tower and shall be responsible for insuring the tower for loss or casualty.  Both the City and the County (as well as any other tower user) will be individually responsible for the costs associated with licensing, procurement, installation and on-going maintenance and renewal/replacement of its own radio system equipment. The term of the Interlocal Agreement is for 45 years and may be renewed for 3 additional terms of 10 years each by agreement of both City and County. The Interlocal Agreement also provides that the County will manage the tower on behalf of the City, and at no cost to the County, pursuant to a standard tower user agreement that is attached to the Interlocal Agreement.  Management responsibilities include all aspects of tower management including collection of tower maintenance and renewal/ replacement fees from tower users pursuant to the terms of the standard use agreement, which is materially identical to the terms pursuant to which the County allows municipalities to use County-owned towers. The City has the ability to terminate the County’s tower management responsibilities and then the City shall perform the same pursuant to the terms of the Interlocal Agreement (which also includes minimum maintenance standards) and the standard tower use agreement. The Interlocal Agreement delegates signature authority to the FDO Director to execute the tower use agreements on behalf of the County. The tower use agreements have a term of 15 years with 2 additional renewal periods of 15 years each. The TCE provides a temporary easement across City land to allow the County to develop and construct the tower and associated improvements. The Access and Management Easement Agreement provides County access to the City’s land in order for the County to operate, maintain and repair the tower for the duration of the Interlocal Agreement.  The City cannot terminate the Interlocal Agreement for convenience nor without cause. If a default occurs under the Interlocal Agreement terms, the non-defaulting party shall have the right to grant the defaulting party additional time to cure the default, seek dispute resolution pursuant to the procedure set forth in the Interlocal Agreement, or bring an action for specific performance. If the City does terminate the Interlocal Agreement for cause, it does not have the right to terminate the County’s tower use agreement.  The County’s tower use agreement may only be terminated pursuant to the terms of the tower use agreement.  While this structure of this Interlocal Agreement is atypical in terms of the City ownership of a County funded tower; the remaining terms of the agreement leave the County with the same rights and liabilities, financial and management responsibilities as if the tower were to be County–owned. For these reasons and the difficulty in finding sites that met the County’s siting criteria, Staff is recommending approval. All costs associated with this agreement will be funded from Fund 3801: 800 MHz/Public Safety Tower System Fund. (FDO Admin) District 5/Countywide (LDC)

C.        FACILITIES DEVELOPMENT AND OPERATIONS (Cont’d)

 

2.         Staff recommends motion to:

 

A) adopt a resolution authorizing the conveyance of certain real property to Habitat for Humanity of South Palm Beach County, Inc., a Florida not-for-profit corporation (Habitat), pursuant to Section 125.38, Florida Statutes, without charge and with reservation of mineral and petroleum rights, but without rights of entry and exploration; and providing for an effective date; and

 

            B) approve three County Deeds in favor of Habitat conveying three properties located on Highview Road, Peak Road and West Ocean Avenue in Palm Beach County for three affordable units to be developed.

 

            SUMMARY: Pursuant to Section 125.38, Florida Statutes, the County is conveying three vacant  properties to Habitat as follows: 1) Highview Road (.0919 acres) in unincorporated Palm Beach County which escheated to the County in August 2012, and has a current appraised value of $42,000; 2) Peak Road (.0918 acres) in unincorporated Palm Beach County which escheated to the County in March 2016, and has a current appraised value of $42,000; and 3) West Ocean Avenue (.2106 acres) in Boynton Beach which escheated to the County in October 2015, and has a current appraised value of $69,000.  Under the Palm Beach County Code Section 22-103(a), since all three properties being conveyed exceeded the $25,000 threshold, appraisals were required and obtained in August 2020. The Property Review Committee was not required to review the conveyance in accordance with PPM CW-L-023 since the appraised value of each is less than $250,000.  Habitat has successfully implemented single-family housing projects and has an established track record in the affordable housing arena in Palm Beach County.  Habitat is proposing to develop three affordable single-family homes each with three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a one car garage. The homes will be sold to families earning no more than 120% of Area Median Income and the anticipated sales price for buyers will not exceed $331,888.  The Board should be cognizant that as a result of the County’s affordability restrictions on the property, the units cannot be used to meet a Workforce Housing Program obligation. Mineral and petroleum rights on the property will be retained by the County in accordance with Section 270.11, Florida Statutes, without rights of entry and exploration. Approval of this item will convey County-owned property to Habitat and result in an increase in the County’s affordable housing stock. This conveyance must be approved by a supermajority vote of five (5 Commissioners). (PREM) Districts 3 & 7 (HJF)

E.        HOUSING AND ECONOMIC SUSTAINABILITY

 

1.         Staff recommends motion to execute: a “Certification of Consistency with the Consolidated Plan” for the Pahokee Housing Authority, Inc., in connection with their grant application to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. SUMMARY: The Pahokee Housing Authority, Inc. (PHA), is applying for a Resident Opportunity and Self-Sufficiency (ROSS) grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). HUD requires that the County confirm that the application is consistent with the goals and objectives of the County’s Consolidated Plan. PHA will use the ROSS grant to hire and maintain a Service Coordinator to assess the needs of PHA residents and coordinate supportive services and other activities designed to help such residents attain economic and housing self-sufficiency. The primary goal of a ROSS-Family Service Coordinator is to assist families in increasing earned income and moving towards economic and housing self-sufficiency. The Department of Housing & Economic Sustainability has reviewed PHA’s proposed ROSS activity and determined that it is consistent with the Palm Beach County Consolidated Plan for Fiscal Year 2020 - 2024. Specifically, the ROSS activity will serve a priority need of the Consolidated Plan by providing assistance to very-low income renter households. Countywide (HJF)

 

 

F.         ENGINEERING & PUBLIC WORKS

 

1.         Staff recommends motion to adopt: a resolution repealing and replacing Resolution R2011-0860, replacing and designating certain parcels of land owned by Palm Beach County (County) as road right-of-way for State Road 7 from Okeechobee Boulevard to 60th Street North (Project). SUMMARY: On June 21, 2011, Resolution R2011-0860 designated certain parcels of land owned by the County as road right-of-way for the Project. A County owned parcel controlled by the County’s Environmental Resources Management Department, known as the Pond Cypress Natural Area, was inadvertently included among these parcels designated as right-of-way. The proposed new resolution will repeal and replace Resolution R2011-0860 with a resolution containing appropriate legal descriptions to correct the road right-of-way designations. The corrected road right-of-way designations cover an area of approximately 175 acres. District 6 (YBH)
