Naming Rights and License Agreement (Agreement)
with DTTM Operations, LLC (DTTM) and President Donald J. Trump (collectively,

“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)

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

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

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

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

including a specific prohibition tied to telecommunications and surveillance
equipment. The FY 2026 annual C&A supersedes any
previously published C&A in an earlier fiscal year and remains in effect

motion to:
A) approve a finding of Extraordinary Circumstances based on data
demonstrating that the requested services address rare but critical situations
where immediate patient movement is necessary to safeguard and protect the
public’s health, safety and welfare, and ensures continuity of patient care and
Emergency Medical Services (EMS) while qualified hospital-based transport
personnel and equipment are already on site and capable of immediate transport;
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

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

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. Countywide (SB)

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)

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)

B) authorize advance payments to Arconas of up to $1,035,560

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 long‑term 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

from the Construction Manager at Risk’s scope of work to allow for the direct

of approximately 7.7 acres of land located adjacent to Water Treatment Plant
No. 11 (WTP 11) in unincorporated Palm Beach County; and
B) the acquisition of
approximately 7.7 acres of land (Property) located adjacent to WTP 11 in
unincorporated Palm Beach County from the Board of Trustees of the
Internal Improvement Trust Fund of the State of Florida (State) and the School Board of Palm Beach County
(School Board) for a total cost of $864,137 plus closing, title insurance and
recording costs estimated to be $3,500.
Summary: WTP 11, operated by the Palm Beach County
Water Utilities Department (WUD), serves as the exclusive drinking water
provider for the Glades region. 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

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)

1. Staff recommends
motion to approve: a 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. 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)
