Naming Rights and License Agreement (Agreement) with DTTM Operations, LLC (DTTM) and President Donald J. Trump (collectively, Licensor), providing for the perpetual, non-exclusive use of the name “President Donald J. Trump International Airport” in accordance with Chapter 2026-15, Laws of Florida 2026 (Act) for the renaming of the Palm Beach International Airport (PBI) at no cost to the County. Summary: The Agreement authorizes Palm Beach County to use the name “President Donald J. Trump International Airport” (Licensed Mark) for the renaming of PBI as required by the Act. The Agreement becomes effective upon approval and remains in perpetuity unless Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approval is denied or revoked, the Act is amended to change the airport name, or the airport name is otherwise lawfully changed. The Agreement grants the County non‑exclusive right to use the Licensed Mark for all reasonable and customary airport purposes, including signage, advertising, marketing, merchandising, promotion, and branding of airport operations, services, and amenities. It defines permitted uses and provides for approved stylized version of the Licensed Mark, detailing the required visual design elements. Variations require prior approval of the Licensor. The Agreement also grants the County rights to use  pre-approved name, likeness, image, and biographical information of President Donald J. Trump (Trump NIL) solely for marketing, advertising, and promotional purposes related to the renamed airport. If the County or any airport retailer wishes to sell merchandise featuring the Licensed Mark, the Agreement requires such merchandise to be purchased through approved retailers to the extent permitted by law. The Licensor is prohibited from receiving royalties, fees, or revenue from the purchase or sale of any such merchandise by County or airport retailers. This restriction does not apply to promotional items distributed free of charge by County. The Agreement requires the County to indemnify the Licensor for claims arising out of the County’s ownership, operation, maintenance, or control of the airport, as permitted by law. To comply with the requirements of Act, a request for approval of the name change will be submitted to the FAA following approval of this item.  Countywide (DO)

Pirtle Construction Company, Inc. dba Pirtle Construction Company (Pirtle) for the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office (PBSO) Forensic Sciences and Technology Facility (Project) in the amount of $348,896.49.  Summary: On July 7, 2015, the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approved the CM at Risk Services contract (R2015-0852) with Pirtle for construction management services for the Project located at 3075 Gun Club Road in West Palm Beach. On December 18, 2018, the BCC approved Amendment No. 1 (R2018-2062) establishing a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) in the amount of $26,305,228 for the construction of an approximately 87,000 square feet secure lab/office warehouse facility along with a vehicle impound lot. Change Order No. 42 to Amendment No. 1 authorizes the installation of a new walk-in cooler and freezer, along with associated infrastructure. This scope includes the installation of new Direct Expansion (DX) units within the Sally Port and an exterior condenser, which were not part of the original Project requirements. Biological samples involved in suspected crimes are stored in walk-in freezer and cooler units that must maintain specific temperature and humidity conditions to ensure long-term preservation of evidence. PBSO has elected to procure new refrigeration units equipped with advanced humidity control, monitoring, and alert systems. Additionally, the new equipment to be installed incorporates redundant cooling and humidity systems to meet PBSO’s critical requirements for reliability, backup, and the secure preservation of evidence. The original SBE participation on this project was 21.41%. The SBE participation for this Change Order is 1.96%. To date, the overall SBE participation for this contract is 21.16%.

7.         Staff recommends motion to:

 

A)  approve a Compactor Lease Agreement (Agreement) with Waste Management Inc. of Florida (Waste Management), to install and maintain four (4) solid waste compactor equipment units at various County facilities from May 5, 2026, to May 4, 2031, with a one (1)-time installation fee of $10,100, monthly rental fees of $3,110, and $34 in monthly administrative fees; and

 

B) delegate authority to the County Administrator or designee, to execute this Agreement and to add additional compactor equipment to this Agreement, if necessary; that do not substantially change the scope of work, terms or conditions.

 

Summary: This Agreement authorizes the lease of four (4) solid waste compactor equipment units from Waste Management to be installed at multiple County facilities, including the State Attorney Building, Judicial Center, and West County Jail, for a term of five (5) years. The Agreement permits the County to install and rent additional compactor equipment at other locations during the term of this Agreement, under the pricing in place at the time the additional equipment is added. Waste Management will be responsible for installation, routine maintenance, and repair of leased equipment. The County will provide appropriate site conditions, electrical connections, and access. The Agreement includes monthly rental rates totaling $3,110, which are subject to annual Consumer Price Index (CPI) adjustments, as well as an administrative charge of $8.50 per unit, per month. A one (1)-time installation fee of $10,100 applies for all leased equipment. The total costs reflect the equipment and rates outlined in Exhibit ‘A’ of the Agreement and may vary only if additional compactor equipment is added. The Agreement contains non-standard indemnification language limiting the indemnification to damages caused in whole by the willful, reckless, or negligent conduct, errors, omissions, or acts of Waste Management and its directors, officers, employees, agents, or subcontractors. The Risk Management Department and County Attorney’s Office have reviewed the indemnification language for this Agreement and advised staff accordingly. Given that the indemnity language does not constitute a waiver, and given the need for the Agreement, staff recommends Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approval. The Agreement may be terminated by either party for default upon 30 days’ written notice and failure to cure, except for non-payment, which allows for shorter termination by Waste Management. The County may terminate early; however, such termination requires payment of the remaining balance of rent for the term. The Agreement is subject to the annual appropriation by the BCC, providing a funding-based termination option to the County. Funding for this Agreement is from the General Fund (FDO) Countywide (MWJ)

2.         Staff recommends motion to:

 

A) adopt a Resolution of the Board of County Commissioners (BCC), of Palm Beach County, Florida, approving a Public Transportation Grant Agreement (PTGA), in Section 5311 Formula Grants for Rural Areas funding (CFDA 20.509) with the State of Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), providing a grant in the amount of $500,000 to provide a pilot to enhance the East-West transit connectivity in Palm Beach County. This PTGA will become effective upon FDOT execution with an expiration date of May 30, 2027;

 

B) approve a Budget Amendment of $500,000 in Palm Tran’s Grant Fund 1341 to recognize the grant award and the corresponding transfer to Palm Tran’s Operating Fund 1340; and

 

C) approve a Budget Amendment of $500,000 to increase the transfer to Palm Tran’s Operating Fund 1340 from Palm Tran’s Grant Fund 1341, to reduce the Operating Reserve by $500,000 and increase other contractual services by $1,000,000.

 

Summary: On December 2, 2025, the application for the Section 5311 Formula Grants for Rural Areas Program was approved by the BCC (R2025-1778). The PTGA will offset part of the operating costs for enhancing the East-West transit connectivity in Palm Beach County. This PTGA, in the amount of $1,000,000 requires a County match of 50% or $500,000 and provides a grant in the amount of $500,000.  The local match will be covered by using $500,000 of the Operating Reserve in Palm Tran’s FY 2026 operating budget. The grant requires broader indemnification by the County than that approved by PPM CW-F-049.   The grant requires the County and its officers, agents, or employees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless FDOT and all of its officers, agents, and employees from any claim, loss, damage, cost, charge, or expense arising out of the County’s non-compliance or performance of this agreement. The indemnification obligation must also be passed on to contractors and/or consultants.  Given that liability is limited to County’s non-compliance or performance of this agreement and the statutory caps of Section 768.28, Florida Statutes, Palm Tran recommends BCC approval.  Countywide (MMM)

The FY 2026 annual C&A supersedes any previously published C&A in an earlier fiscal year and remains in effect until the applicant’s award is closed or the end of the useful life of its federally assisted assets, whichever is later.  If a new list is provided in the future, those C&A will apply, except as FTA determines otherwise in writing.

B)  approve a modification of the existing Palms West Hospital Limited Partnership d/b/a HCA Florida Palms West (HCA Florida Palms West) Secondary Service Provider Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity (COPCN) to revise its service area to “patients requiring transport to or from HCA hospitals and HCA hospital based off campus emergency departments located within Palm Beach County”, for a period of six (6) months, from June 1, 2026 through December 1, 2026, and

 

C)  delegate authority to the County Administrator or designee, at the conclusion of the six (6) month period, to renew the modification for an additional six (6) month period from December 1, 2026 through June 1, 2027, and to again renew the modification for the period from June 1, 2027 through June 30, 2027, provided that the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) does not direct otherwise at a public hearing.  The current COPCN for HCA Florida Palms West expires June 30, 2027, and this modification does not alter the existing expiration date. 

 

Summary:  In accordance with the Palm Beach County Code, Chapter 13, Article II, Division 1, (EMS Ordinance), Section 13-24(f) upon a finding of Extraordinary Circumstances the BCC may, at any time, grant an extension and/or, modification of an existing COPCN for a period of up to six (6) months which may be renewed.  The EMS Ordinance defines Extraordinary Circumstances as meaning substantiated conditions or events such that, in the discretion of the BCC, warrant waiving the normal requirements for extension or modification of a COPCN, as may be required to safeguard and protect the public’s health, safety and welfare and ensure continuity of EMS.  Based on the EMS Ordinance Administrators review, HCA Florida Palms West has demonstrated the Extraordinary Circumstances qualified to justify the modification of their existing COPCN.

1.         SUMMARY (cont’d.): The existing HCA Florida Palms West COPCN limits their services to HCA Florida Palms West patients needing transports between HCA Florida Palms West and other medical facilities.  The modification request would expand this authority to include patients requiring transport to and/or from HCA hospitals and HCA hospital based off campus emergency departments located within Palm Beach County. The EMS Ordinance Administrator’s responsibilities include reviewing the application for modification of the COPCN, obtaining verification that the applicant meets applicable EMS laws, considering the need for the proposed service, and preparing a report with recommendations for the EMS Advisory Council (Council).  The EMS Ordinance Administrator’s consideration of the modification request and Extraordinary Circumstances was based primarily on data presented by HCA Florida Palms West demonstrating the requested services address rare but critical situations where immediate patient movement is necessary to protect life, health, and safety, and ensures patient continuity of care while qualified hospital-based transport personnel and equipment are already on site and capable of immediate transport.  The EMS Ordinance Administrators report recommending approval of the modification request was submitted to the Council for their review and recommendation.  On March 19, 2026, the Council reviewed the EMS Ordinance Administrator’s report on the application and heard an oral presentation from HCA Florida Palms West.  The Council voted (12 yes 0 no) to deny the requested modification to HCA Florida Palms West.

1.         Staff recommends motion to adopt: an Ordinance of the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) of Palm Beach County (County), Florida, to allow for school zone speed detection systems; providing for title; providing for definitions; providing for intent; providing for supplemental authority; providing for program administration; providing for locations; providing for permit requirements; providing for violations and penalties; providing for uniform traffic citations; providing for distribution of penalties collected; providing for hearings and appeals; providing for reporting requirements; providing for severability; providing for inclusion in the Code of Laws and Ordinances; providing for captions; and providing for an effective date. Summary:  On April 14, 2026, the BCC approved this Ordinance on preliminary reading, and approved authorization for advertisement of today’s Public Hearing for final adoption.  Section 125.66, Florida Statutes, authorizes the BCC to enact ordinances to protect the health, safety, and welfare of the County’s citizens.  Section 316.008(9)(a), Florida Statutes, authorizes a county to enforce the applicable speed limit on a roadway properly maintained as a school zone through the use of a speed detection system.  Section 316.1895, Florida Statutes, governs the establishment of, enforcement within, and designation of school speed zones. Section 316.008(9)(b), Florida Statutes, states that a “county or municipality may place or install, or contract with a vendor to place or install, a speed detection system within a roadway maintained as a school zone,” as provided in Section 316.1895, Florida Statutes, to enforce unlawful speed violations.  A county must first enact an ordinance to authorize the placement or installation of school zone speed detection system and, as part of the public hearing on such ordinance, consider traffic data or other evidence supporting installation and operation of each proposed school zone speed detection system, pursuant to Section 316.008(9)(c), Florida Statutes.  Based on speed study information submitted by the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office (PBSO), the County has determined that there are 40 school zone locations that constitute a heightened safety risk and warrant additional enforcement measures, per Section 316.008(9)(c), Florida Statutes.  Once the Ordinance is adopted, the County may contract with one (1) or more vendors to provide program services with costs covered by penalties assessed and collected. Section 316.1896(1), Florida Statutes, permits counties to authorize a traffic infraction enforcement officer to issue uniform traffic citations for violations of speed limits within school zones; and Section 316.1896(14)(b), Florida Statutes, requires counties that elect to authorize traffic infraction enforcement officers to issue uniform traffic citations to designate by resolution existing staff to serve as the clerk to the local hearing officer. The contract and required resolution will be brought to a BCC meeting once the Engineering and Public Works Department (EPW) has direction on process moving forward.  Countywide (YBH)

1.         Staff recommends motion to approve:  an Ordinance of the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) of Palm Beach County, Florida, amending Chapter 2, Article V, Division 8, The Palm Beach County Commission on Ethics (COE) Ordinance, as amended; amending Section 2-260(a) (Filing of complaints); amending Section 2-260(b) (Legal sufficiency of complaints); amending Section 2-260(d) (Preliminary investigation and public hearing); amending Section 2-260(g) (Public records exemption); amending Section 2-260.4 (Frivolous or groundless complaints); providing for a savings clause; providing for repeal of laws in conflict; providing for severability; providing for inclusion in the code of laws and ordinances; and providing for an effective date. Summary: The BCC adopted the Palm Beach County COE Ordinance as a countywide Ordinance in May of 2011, in accordance with the County Charter. The Charter amendments, which were approved by the voters in November 2010, also called for the establishment of a review committee to review and recommend proposed changes to the COE Ordinance.   In order to ensure compliance with Senate Bill 7014 (2024), the COE referred this matter to the ethics review committee, which recommends amendments that would remove the Executive Director of the COE as an individual authorized to file self-initiated complaints; prohibit the commission on ethics from self-initiating a complaint; clarify that complaints must be based on the complainant’s personal knowledge or on information other than hearsay in order to be found legally sufficient; and create a provision establishing a process for the recovery of costs and attorney fees for frivolous or groundless complaints.  Countywide (DB)

A) approve a Sole Source Contract (Contract) with Arconas Inc. (Arconas) for the provision of new holdroom seating for Concourse B and materials for the repair of existing holdroom seating at the Palm Beach International Airport (PBI) in an amount not to exceed $1,569,029.33; and

 

B) authorize advance payments to Arconas of up to $1,035,560 towards the purchase of goods and services.

 

Summary:  The Contract provides for the procurement and installation of new holdroom furniture for the Concourse B Expansion - Package 2B (Phase 3 Project) (R2025-0108) and materials for the repair of existing furniture throughout the terminal. The Phase 3 Project includes expanded passenger seating areas necessitating the purchase of additional holdroom seating. The existing furniture installed at PBI is the Arconas Flyaway Series. To ensure a seamless design aesthetic and consistency between the existing terminal and the expanded passenger seating areas, the Phase 3 Project specifies the same Arconas Flyaway series furniture already in use at PBI.  Arconas is the sole manufacturer of this product line, and its proprietary components and finishes are not available from alternative vendors. Standardizing furnishing by using the same manufacturer maintains visual continuity, simplifies maintenance, and ensures longterm compatibility with PBI’s existing inventory. The procurement and installation of the furniture was originally in the scope of work for the Phase 3 Project.  Item 3F2 on this agenda provides for the removal of the procurement and installation of the furniture from the Construction Manager at Risk’s scope of work to allow for the direct purchase of the furniture from Arconas to provide cost savings to the County.  Countywide (AH)

LL will pay impact fees above the allocated $405,921. On September 16, 2025 the Board of County Commissioners  approved IFAHAP funding for Madison Terrace, LLC in the amount of $254,876. Madison Terrace withdrew from the program and a portion of the unused funding is being provided towards the Arise – Lake Worth project. The balance of unused funding will be available in the IFAHAP. The Certificate of Award and related documents will be issued to the entity identified herein and its successors and/or assigns and will impose IFAHAP policies that require the Project to provide affordable rental housing to persons at or below 110% Area Median Income (AMI) ($128,590 for a family of four [4] for 2025) for no less than 30 years.

To address projected population growth and ensure long-term operational reliability and resiliency, WUD requires additional land for WTP 11 expansion. The State owns approximately 58 acres immediately west of WTP 11 which has use restrictions as it has been dedicated to the School Board for educational purposes. Both agencies agree, in concept, to the conveyance to the County, pending final approval of all parties. The State and County obtained appraisals which valued the Property without restrictions at $435,500 (State) and $537,072 (County). The appraisals further valued the release of restrictions at $210,500 (State) and $43,637 (County). The School Board will release its interest in the Property for $43,637. Additionally, the School Board requires reimbursement for "demucking" costs totaling $385,000 (pro-rated for 7.7 acres). This brings the total payment to the School Board to $428,637. The State will convey the Property without restrictions for a payment of $435,500. The total acquisition cost to the County is $864,137, plus standard closing and ancillary costs. Staff presented this acquisition to the Property Review Committee in December 2025; the Committee voiced no objections to the transaction. The School Board approved the release of its interest on April 15, 2026. The County will record the final deeds once the State finalizes its approval process. Funding for this acquisition is from the Water Utilities Department Capital Improvement Fund. This item must be approved by a supermajority vote (5 Commissioners).

1.         Staff recommends motion to adopt: a Resolution approving the Palm Beach County (County) Safety Action Plan (Plan).  SUMMARY:  The County received a 2022 Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) grant in the amount of $639,200 from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), an agency of the United States Department of Transportation (USDOT), to develop and complete the Plan.  The Plan identified a High Injury Network (HIN) comprised of State and County road segments and intersections, ranked in the top 50% for Fatal and Serious Injury crashes (FSI), through a Countywide crash analysis that evaluated crash trends between January 2019 and December 2023.  The Plan provides specific recommendations for the top five (5) County corridors, which are:

 

1.    6th Avenue S/Melaleuca Lane, Pine Hov Boulevard to US1,

2.    10th Avenue N, Jog Road to Barnett Drive,

3.    Linton Boulevard, Jog Road to A1A,

4.    Jog Road, Winston Trails Boulevard to Summit Boulevard, and

5.    Military Trail, Clint Moore Road to Woolbright Road

 

and account for approximately 20% of all FSI on County maintained roadways.  The Plan commits to a strategy to reduce FSI by 50% on the HIN by 2035, and achieve a goal of zero FSI by 2045.  Approval of this Plan will allow the County to pursue grants for its implementation from the USDOT FHWA.  Countywide (YBH)

Trump (collectively, Licensor), providing for the perpetual, non-exclusive use of the name “President Donald J. International Airport” in accordance with Chapter 2026-15, Laws of Florida 2026 (Act) for the renaming of the Palm Beach International Airport (PBI) at no cost to the County.  Summary: The Agreement authorizes Palm Beach County to use the name “Presidential Donald J. Trump International Airport” (Licensed Mark) for the renaming of PBI as required by the Act. The Agreement becomes effective upon approval and remains in perpetuity unless Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approval is denied or revoked, the Act is amended to change the airport name, or the airport name is otherwise lawfully changed. The Agreement grants the County non‑exclusive right to use the Licensed Mark for all reasonable and customary airport purposes, including signage, advertising, marketing, merchandising, promotion, and branding of airport operations, services, and amenities. It defines permitted uses and provides for approved stylized version of the Licensed Mark, detailing the required visual design elements. Variations require prior approval of the Licensor. The Agreement also grants the County rights to use  pre-approved name, likeness, image, and biographical information of President Donald J. Trump (Trump NIL) solely for marketing, advertising, and promotional purposes related to the renamed airport. If the County or any airport retailer wishes to sell merchandise featuring the Licensed Mark, the Agreement requires such merchandise to be purchased through approved retailers to the extent permitted by law. The Licensor is prohibited from receiving royalties, fees, or revenue from the purchase or sale of any such merchandise by County or airport retailers. This restriction does not apply to promotional items distributed free of charge by County. The Agreement requires the County to indemnify the Licensor for claims arising out of the County’s ownership, operation, maintenance, or control of the airport, as permitted by law. To comply with the requirements of Act, a request for approval of the name change will be submitted to the FAA following approval of this item.  Countywide (DO)
