Projects $150,000 or greater are advertised on the vendor self-service (VSS) website and are bid among the pool of pre-qualified contractors while projects $200,000 or greater are additionally advertised in the newspaper. The bidding pool is further expanded, for projects $150,000 or greater, to include additional bidders responding to the specific project advertisement that submit a qualification application at least ten (10) calendar days before the bid due date. The annual overhead door replacement services contract was presented to the Goal Setting Committee on April 5, 2023 and the Committee established Affirmative Procurement Initiatives (APIs) of a sheltered market for projects less than $100,000 (when three (3) or more small businesses are qualified under the annual contract) or a Small Business Enterprise (SBE) contractor will be given a price preference if its bid is within 10% of the lowest non-small business bid for projects $100,000 or greater. However, on July 1, 2024, certain statutory changes took effect which require that the sheltered market for projects less than $100,000 API be removed. Therefore, the annual overhead door replacement contract will have an API of an SBE Price Preference where an SBE contractor will be given a price preference if its bid is within 10% of the lowest non-small business bid for each project. Actual Small/Minority/Women Owned Business Enterprise participation will be tracked cumulatively for all work orders issued. To date, there is no SBE participation on the annual overhead door replacement contract. (Capital Improvements Division) Countywide (MWJ)

The State of Florida FY2024–FY2025 General Appropriations Act provided $500,000 in non-recurring general revenue funds to the PBC Board of County Commissioners (BCC) for Adult Reentry Services. This funding supports the Provider contracts, who serve returning residents who are released from FDC facilities and return to Palm Beach County. The original Purchase Order was submitted as a receive and file item at the September 10, 2024 BCC meeting.

A. FACILITIES DEVELOPMENT & OPERATIONS

1. Staff recommends motion to delegate authority: to the County Administrator, or her designee, who in this case will be the Director of Facilities Development and Operations (FDO), to approve and execute, subject to the review and approval of the Office of the County Attorney, a First Amendment to the Deposit Receipt and Contract for Sale and Purchase with True Gospel Holiness Christian Center Inc., a Florida not-for-profit corporation, (True Gospel) deleting the requirement for True Gospel to provide a storm water drainage easement at closing and extending the date of closing. Summary: On February 11, 2025, the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approved a Deposit Receipt and Contract for Sale and Purchase with True Gospel (R2025-0223) (Agreement) for the sale of approximately 5,320 square feet of retail space located at 361 W. Avenue A in Belle Glade (Property) at a purchase price of $250,000. The Agreement obligates True Gospel to provide a perpetual, non-exclusive storm water drainage easement to the County at the time of closing. During the due diligence period, it was determined that the storm water drainage easement is not necessary, as there is no County purpose for such drainage easement. The BCC’s approval of this motion will allow the Director of FDO to execute a First Amendment to the Agreement, which deletes True Gospels’ obligation to provide a storm water drainage easement to the County and extends the date of closing. The First Amendment will be subject to the review and approval by the Office of the County Attorney. (Property and Real Estate Management) District 6 (HJF)
