7.         SUMMARY (cont’d.): MCS has an office located in Palm Beach County (County) and is a certified SBE company. Sections 25 and 26 of the Agreement require broader indemnification by the County than approved by County PPM CW-F-049.  The Agreement requires the County to indemnify FDOT for any violations by the County during right-of-way acquisition and its related activities.  All right-of-way acquisition is being done by FDOT.  The Risk Management Department and the County Attorney’s Office have reviewed the indemnification requirements for the Agreement and advised staff accordingly.  Given that the liability is limited to the County’s non-compliance with right-of-way acquisition and statutory caps of Section 768.28, Florida Statutes, staff recommends approval by the Board of County Commissioners (BCC). This Project is included in the Five-Year Road Program. District 7 (YBH)

Daly LLC (Consultant) in the amount of $260,105.50 for the Main County Courthouse (MCCH) Build-Out Renovations (Project).  Summary: On June 19, 2018, the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approved the Contract (R2018-0917) with the Consultant for professional architectural/engineering design and construction administration services for the Project. CSA No. 5 authorized design and construction administration services for the build-out of approximately 100,000 square feet of existing finished shell space located on the first, seventh, and eighth floors of the MCCH located at 205 N. Dixie Hwy in West Palm Beach. Supplement No. 1 to CSA No. 5 will authorize the Consultant to provide additional services to include reprogramming the seventh and eighth floors; redesign of court administration spaces, reprogramming of the first floor to accommodate end user occupancy changes; engineering and design for the addition of a restroom, addition of an Office of Technology and Innovation (OTI)/ Electronic Services and Security (ESS) technology equipment room; and supplemental mechanical scope not included in the original project requirements.

The redesign of the court administration spaces will better accommodate changes requested by court administration. The first-floor reprogramming and redesign are required by the State Attorney to reallocate its designated office space between the Public Defender’s Office and Guardian ad Litem. This redesign resulted in the addition of a restroom and a new OTI/ESS technology closet. The additional mechanical scope of work is required to design the replacement of the existing Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) air handler, which was to be completed as part of a separate courthouse project but has been incorporated into this project to avoid overlapping and potentially conflicting construction activities. The Contract was advertised according to the County’s prior Small Business Enterprise (SBE) program and a 15% SBE subcontracting goal was established. The Consultant committed to 25% SBE participation for the life of the Contract. For this Supplement No. 1 to CSA No. 5, the proposed SBE participation is 23.26%.

The project will convert the motel into 18 affordable studio units for households earning no more than 80% of Area Median Income (AMI) ($82,250 for a two [2]-person household). Following acquisition of the property, the Borrower experienced construction delays resulting from changes in the scope of rehabilitation work. These delays affected the Loan Disbursement Requirements, Occupancy and Affordability Requirements, and Construction Draw Schedule established in the Loan Agreement. Amendment 001 (R2024-1211), executed on July 31, 2024, revised the Construction Draw Schedule to accommodate delays resulting from changes in the rehabilitation scope of work.  Amendment 002 (R2026-0646), executed on February 6, 2026, modified the Loan Disbursement Requirements and Construction Draw Schedule to permit periodic draw submissions, with the final draw required on or before May 30, 2026. Amendment 003 further modifies the Loan Agreement by: (1) extended the deadline for 100% disbursement of the $1,611,797 loan and submission of the final draw request from May 30, 2026, to June 30, 2026; (2) extended the deadline to obtain temporary certificates of occupancy from June 30, 2026, to September 30, 2026; and (3) extended the deadline to lease all 18 County-assisted units to within 60 days following receipt of a temporary certificate of occupancy, but no later than November 30, 2026.

The Borrower is Palm Park (FL) Owner LP, a Florida limited partnership, or an affiliate thereof (Borrower), and the developer is April Housing LLC, a subsidiary of Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust, Inc., or an affiliate thereof. The Borrower has agreed to a minimum of a 30-year affordability period. The Bonds will be payable solely from revenues derived from the Borrower and/or other collateral provided by or on behalf of the Borrower. Bryant Miller Olive, P.A. will be appointed Bond Counsel by the Authority with respect to the Bonds. In addition to the Bonds, equity will be contributed from syndication of 4% Low Income Housing Tax Credits under Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (Code).

The Board of County Commissioners (BCC), by the adoption of Resolution R2026-0645 on June 2, 2026, previously approved the issuance of the bonds, but because of a scrivener’s error in the 5th whereas clause of the Resolution, incorrectly stated the date of the Authority’s public hearing to be August 8, 2025, when it should have stated April 10, 2026. The sole purpose of this Resolution is to correct that scrivener’s error.

The resolution adopted by the Authority (R2026-10) authorizing the issuance of the Bonds will include language substantially as follows: The County assumes no responsibility for monitoring compliance by the Borrower of applicable federal income tax, securities laws or other regulatory requirements. The Borrower understands and agrees that it is responsible for monitoring its compliance with all applicable federal income tax, federal securities law and other regulatory requirements, retaining adequate records of such compliance, and retaining qualified counsel to respond to or assist the Authority and the County in responding to any audit, examination or inquiry of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), the Securities and Exchange Commission or other regulatory body.

Summary:  FDEP has allotted funding for Fiscal Year 2027-28 for the Resilient Florida Grant Program to effectively address the impacts of flooding and sea level rise that the state faces through projects that analyze and plan for vulnerabilities and implementation projects for adaptation and mitigation. Grant applications are due to FDEP on September 1, 2026. On February 7, 2023, the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approved the FDEP Agreement No. 22FRP71 (R2023-0169) for WRWWTF that is currently under construction. PBCWUD seeks supplemental funding for additional scope to provide sufficient fire flow to the new operations building at the WRWWTF and comply with permitting requirements. Project Nos. 25-021 and 25-023 include construction of resilient process improvements to address the risk of flooding to these critical assets. These measures will minimize damage, facilitate faster recovery for affected communities and reduce overall costs associated with flooding. The requested funding will support process improvements that directly strengthen the resilience of WRNWWTF and WRWWTF. The Projects are included in the PBCWUD FY 2026 Budget.

B) delegate authority to the County Administrator, or designee, to sign all grant application forms and supporting documents and complete all registration requirements, execute the forthcoming grant agreement and all future time extensions, task assignments, certifications, and other forms associated with the forthcoming grant agreement and any necessary minor amendments that do not substantially change the scope of work, terms, or conditions of the forthcoming grant agreement.

 

Summary: The AWS Grant Program is available to local governments and nonstate entities to help communities plan for and implement water conservation, reuse and other water supply and water resource development projects. Grant applications are due on September 1, 2026. WTP 11 is the sole source of drinking water for the Glades Region, which serves the Cities of Belle Glade, Pahokee and South Bay. Therefore, it is critical that WTP 11 maintain reliable and efficient treatment processes to ensure the continuous delivery of safe drinking water. The Project consists of the construction of three (3) UFA Production Wells (PW) (14,15,16), associated wellhead, wellsite, and the associated raw watermain branch (RWM) connections required to convey raw water to WTP 11. This Project will be completed in two (2) phases: Phase 1 includes construction of PW 14 and associated RWM, and Phase 2 consists of PWs 15 and 16. Together, the PWs will provide an additional 1,800 gallons per minute of raw water to WTP 11 and increase operational efficiency of the wellfield. Funds are requested for Phase 1 of this project.

Summary: The new wastewater lift station required to serve the Windsor Place MXPD Phase 1 – Commercial development (Project), located at the northwest corner of Hypoluxo Road and Lyons Road (PCN 00-42-45-07-14-003-0000), necessitates the acquisition of a perpetual Easement measuring approximately 50 feet by 30 feet from the adjacent AHC Windsor property (Property). AHC Windsor has requested modifications to Palm Beach County Water Utilities Department's (PBCWUD) Standard Utility Easement form. Specifically, the requested revisions grant PBCWUD unrestricted and exclusive rights to enter upon the Property for the purpose of operating, maintaining, repairing, replacing, and accessing the lift station and related utility facilities. Because these modifications deviate from the County’s standard easement language, acceptance by the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) is required. The lift station will initially provide wastewater service to the Windsor Place MXPD Phase 1 – Commercial development and is planned to ultimately accommodate wastewater flows from the AHC Windsor property as it develops. The proposed easement rights are necessary to ensure uninterrupted access to and operation of this critical public wastewater infrastructure. (PBCWUD Project No. 24-547) District 6 (MWJ)

This limitation language is consistent with Countywide PPM CW-F-049. This non-standard language requires BCC approval as it differs from the approved SDA form. The Property Owner has paid a Mandatory Agreement Payment in the amount of $27,853.73, which is equal to 12 months of Guaranteed Revenue Fees. District 3 (MWJ)

Summary: On January 14, 2025, the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approved the Palm Beach County Water Utilities Department (PBCWUD) Contract with Parsons (R2025-0092). The Contract provides consulting/professional services to assist with the implementation of the PBCWUD 2025-2030 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP), which includes new capital projects and repair and replacement projects that are being developed as part of the PBCWUD Asset Management Program. The Amendment will remove Ardurra Group, Inc. and add Brown and Caldwell (Corporation) as a subconsultant to provide additional resources to support the implementation of CIP projects. This Contract was presented to the Goal Setting Committee (GSC) on March 29, 2024, and the GSC established an Affirmative Procurement Initiative (API): 20% Small Business Enterprise (SBE) subcontracting goal. Parsons committed to 26% SBE participation for the life of the Contract. Parsons is headquartered in Chantilly, Virginia and Brown and Caldwell is headquartered in Walnut Creek, California. Most members of the project team will be co-located with PBCWUD staff at the Central Region Operations Center from which the majority of the work required will be undertaken.

North and east and west of Assembly Loop, Jupiter, Florida. Summary: During PBCWUD Project No. 18‑562, a 12‑inch potable water main extension, including a master meter and associated utility appurtenances, was constructed. The project extended from Pratt Whitney Road to the intersection of Corporate Road North and Assembly Loop. Because this alignment crossed both PBCWUD and PBPOC service areas, a subsequent project PBCWUD Project No. 23‑564 was developed to relocate the master meter. Project No. 23‑564 relocated the master meter approximately 827 feet from its original installation point. In accordance with the PBCWUD Minimum Design and Construction Standards, PBCWUD’s service area terminates at the point of service, defined as the meter location. With the relocation of the master meter, the potable water assets located downstream of the new meter location no longer fall within PBCWUD’s service area. As a result, these assets are being returned to PBPOC. The assets include potable water distribution components such as hydrants, pipes, valves, bends, and other items identified in the Bill of Sale.

Summary: Palm Beach County (County) and Florida Power & Light (FPL) entered into a Reclaimed Water Agreement (Agreement) dated May 20, 2008 (R2008-0906). In accordance with the Agreement, the Reclaimed Water Project (RWP) was constructed, including a 36-inch reclaimed water transmission main extending from the East Central Regional Water Reclamation Facility (ECR) to FPL's West County Energy Center (WCEC). The existing 36-inch reclaimed water transmission main has experienced mechanical joint restraint failures at several locations. To evaluate the condition of the pipeline and the integrity of the joint restraint system, the Palm Beach County Water Utilities Department (PBCWUD) has retained Mock, Roos & Associates, Inc. (Consultant) to perform a preliminary engineering evaluation. The evaluation will identify high-risk pipe joints and pipeline segments that warrant further field investigation and detailed condition assessment. The Consultant will perform these services under Consultant Service Authorization (CSA) No. 16, issued pursuant to the Consulting/Professional Services Utility Distribution & Collection System Engineering Services Contract, for an amount not to exceed $161,200. Pursuant to the Agreement, FPL is responsible for all operation and maintenance costs associated with the RWP. Accordingly, the costs associated with this engineering evaluation will be reimbursed by FPL in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.

The Property Owner requested release of the identified easements, which are no longer associated with any public potable water, reclaimed water and wastewater facilities. As a result of site development for Lake Worth Associates I, LLLP, and Lake Worth Associates II, LLLP, the existing identified utility easements will not affect existing or new public potable water, reclaimed water and wastewater facilities and therefore PBCWUD recommends approval of the release.

The Plan for FY 2024 – FY 2028 underwent a complete revision  in 2024 to address community needs by reflecting recent changes, including the public’s demand for electronic resources, access to evolving technology, and population growth.  While continuing to meet the needs of those who seek traditional services and resource formats, the Library also recognizes the demand for new technology. The Library will take an active role in serving as a bridge to connect Library members with the community services they require.  

 

Highlights of the Action Plan for FY 2027 include:

 

·         Engaging our communities and partners by promoting and enhancing the role of the Library and offering services beyond the Library’s walls;

·         Providing free access to resources and services that reflect and engage Palm Beach County’s diverse communities and people;

·         Offering a diverse range of activities designed to enrich, stimulate and engage members from early literacy through adulthood;

B) delegate authority to the County Administrator or designee to execute the grant agreements and any other necessary forms and certifications that do not substantially change the scope of work, terms or conditions of the Application or necessary forms.

 

Summary: On October 7, 2025, the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approved the County Administrator to apply for a Public Library Construction Grant. However, no funding was appropriated to by the State to the Public Library Construction Grant program for FY26-27. Applicants may roll over their application to the following fiscal year so long as construction has not begun on the site. This Application is being submitted for the State’s Fiscal Year (FY) 2028 Budget and is for up to $500,000 with local matching funds of an equal amount to the Grant Awarded.  If awarded, grant funds will be used towards the cost of construction, thus freeing up other funds for furnishing and equipping this library. The Library’s Capital Project budget has funds available to cover the matching requirement and to complete the Project. The operational costs will be funded through the Library's operating budget. The building will be exclusively used for public library purposes. On March 12, 2024, the BCC approved the purchase from the Town of Hypoluxo of a town-owned property for the establishment and operation of a new Palm Beach County Library branch in the Town of Hypoluxo. The property is located at the corner of Federal Highway and Park Lane. The estimated cost for construction for a 3,300 sq. ft. branch library is $5 million. Construction on this building is expected to start during the middle of the 2027 calendar year and is slated for completion in late 2028. Countywide (RS)

4.         SUMMARY: This Grant Application requests $4,790,502.47 from DHS FEMA for the funding to add 20 new positions to staff a four (4) person ladder at new Fire Station 92 located at 4575 Lyons Road, Lake Worth. The total project cost identified in the Grant Application is $7,768,382.40 with a 25% Fire Rescue match in year one (1) of $647,365.20, a 25% match in year two (2) of $647,365.20 and a 65% match in year three (3) of $1,683,149.53. If awarded, the Grant will provide funding to staff a four (4) person ladder at new Fire Station 92. After a thorough evaluation the positions may be submitted as a supplemental request through the budget process prior to the expiration of the Grant. Otherwise these 20 positions will be eliminated at the end of the Grant.  The Assurance and Certifications in the Grant Application include the following: By signing this application, I certify that the organization will, to the extent practicable, seek, recruit, and hire members of racial and ethnic minority groups and women to increase their ranks within our organization. This certification appears to be inconsistent with Presidential Executive Order 14173  requiring a grant recipient to certify it does not operate any Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs. It is also inconsistent with the requirement in the Grant Application’s Assurance and Certifications and Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to comply with applicable executive orders. Furthermore, should the Grant be awarded to the County, the NOFO requires grant recipients to comply with the updated FY 2026 DHS Standard Terms and Conditions, which would be part of the federal award package that would need to be approved upon award. These updated Terms and Conditions require grant recipients to certify that they do not and will not operate DEI programs in violation of Federal anti-discrimination laws; and require that recipients comply with Presidential executive orders related to grants.  Based on the updated DHS Terms and Conditions and the short grant submission deadline that was impending, County Administration recommended submittal of the Grant Application in reliance on the to the extent practicable provision of the certification.   The required match for this grant is estimated to be $2,977,880 over three (3) years, funded from the Fire Rescue MSTU contingency reserves.

The HIPAA Regulations allow the County to limit the designation of a health care component to covered functions that it performs. Fire Rescue’s Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) and dispatch functions may be provided outside of Fire Rescue’s covered entity health care provider status.

A) adopt a Resolution of the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) of Palm Beach County (County), Florida, approving the submission of the Fiscal Year (FY) 2027 Section 5311, Formula Grants for Rural Areas Program (CFDA 20.509) Grant Application as administered by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) in the amount of  $1,319,565 to partially offset the operational costs for the Go Glades Service, and

 

B) authorize the Mayor of the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) to execute the Grant Application, supporting documents, and assurances.

 

Summary: FDOT has notified Palm Tran of the availability of Section 5311 grant funds for mass transit operating assistance in non-urbanized areas. If awarded, the Grant will partially offset the operating costs of the Go Glades Service by 50%. The application is for $1,319,565 in grant funds, which requires a local match of 50% or $1,319,566 for a total project cost of $2,639,131. The grant match is included in Palm Tran’s proposed FY 2027 Budget.  The Grant Application requires broader indemnification by the County than that approved by PPM CW-F-049. The resulting Grant Agreement will require 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. The Risk Management Department and County Attorney’s Office have reviewed the indemnification requirements of this Grant and advised staff accordingly. Given that liability is limited to the County’s non-compliance or performance of this Grant Agreement and the statutory caps of Section 768.28, Florida Statutes, staff recommends BCC approval.  Countywide (MMM)

            A.        FIRE RESCUE

 

                        1.         Staff recommends motion to:

 

A) adopt a Resolution establishing the rate for the non-ad valorem special assessment annually levied against parcels of real property within the Palm Beach County Municipal Service Benefit Unit for Fire Hydrant Maintenance and Rental - Boca Raton (MSBU-Boca Raton) commencing fiscal year 2026-27 and for all subsequent fiscal years; providing for repeal of Resolution 2008-0239; and providing for a savings clause;

 

B)  adopt a Resolution adopting the non-ad valorem assessment roll for the MSBU-Boca Raton for fiscal year 2026-27 and all subsequent fiscal years; providing for the annual levy of non-ad valorem special assessments against parcels of real property within the MSBU-Boca Raton; providing for the repeal of Resolution 2001-1181; and providing for a savings clause; and

 

C)  authorize the Mayor to execute Certificate to Non-Ad Valorem Assessment Roll (DR-408A) form certifying the non-ad valorem assessment roll for MSBU-Boca Raton.

 

Summary:  The MSBU-Boca Raton for Fire Hydrant Maintenance and Rental-Boca Raton was established in February of 1993, as set out in Chapter 26, Article III of the Palm Beach County Code. The current rate as established by Resolution is $23 per parcel (R2008-0239). Pursuant to Section 197.3632, Florida Statutes, and Palm Beach County Code Sections 26-106 through 26-109, a non-ad valorem special assessment is levied against the real property  parcels located within the MSBU-Boca Raton. The rate has been the same since 2008. The proposed rate Resolution would increase the rate due to the maintenance cost of the hydrants exceeding the current assessment rate. The increasing maintenance cost has been steadily reducing the fund balance, and without the increase the fund will go negative. The current rate will be increased from $23 per parcel to $27 per parcel. This public hearing is being held to adopt the assessment rate and the non-ad valorem assessment roll, in accordance with Section 197.3632(4), Florida Statutes and Section 26-109 of the Palm Beach County Code.  Every year the assessment roll must be certified by the Mayor of the BCC, and the State Department of Revenue (DOR) form DR-408A must be signed by the Mayor for each MSBU in order for the assessment to be included on the property’s annual tax bill. These forms and the assessment rolls must be submitted to the Tax Collector no later than September 15th, of each year.  District 5 (SB)
