If, during the course of the performance of the Services contemplated in this Agreement, Consultant determines that work should be performed to complete the Project which is, in the Consultant's opinion, outside the level of effort originally anticipated, whether or not the Scope of Services identifies the work items, Consultant shall notify the Project Coordinator, in writing, and in a timely manner, and obtain said Project Coordinator's written consent, before proceeding with the work. The Project Coordinator must comply with Contract Amendment processing requirements as outlined in Article 1.16, prior to issuance of any written authorization to proceed with Additional Services by Consultant. If Consultant proceeds with additional Services without notifying and obtaining the consent of the Project Coordinator, said work shall be deemed to be within the original level of effort, and deemed included as a Basic Service herein, whether or not specifically addressed in the Scope of Services.

City, upon review of Consultant's submittal and such other documentation as the City may require, may grant a reasonable extension of time for completion of the Project and may provide reasonable compensation, if appropriate. 2.7.18 The Consultant covenants with the City to furnish its Services hereunder properly, in accordance with the standards of its profession and in conformance with applicable construction, building and health codes and other applicable Federal, State and local rules, regulations and laws, of which it should reasonably be aware, throughout the term of this Agreement.

(the "CONSULTANT") BACKGROUND The scope of services for this project is limited to the Sunset islands I & II Neighborhood Right- of-Way Improvement (the "Project"). The Project shall be implemented using the Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) Office standard Planned Progress Initiative model for Right-of-Way projects and is funded by Pay-As-You-Go Fund, Gulf Breeze 2006 Bond, and Proposed Future Stormwater Bond. The Project provides for stormwater management and potable water distribution system upgrades as well as restoration of the neighborhood's hardscape, and streetscape consistent with the Bayshore Neighborhood Basis of Design Report (BODR), the City's Water and Stormwater Master Plans, all applicable jurisdictional regulatory requirements, and community preferences to be consistent with the City Commission December 17, 2008 RFQ approval. Sanitary sewer upgrades are not anticipated as part of the Project. Previously, another Consultant performed a variety of forensic and community planning tasks culminating in the creation of the Bayshore BODR, which was approved by the City of Miami Beach Commission. This BODR served as the definitive Master Plan for the Project. The Consultant subsequently designed the Project and produced 100% design documents .(Existing Plans) for Bid Package 8B: Bayshore -Lower North Bay Road and Sunset Islands I & II. The BODR anticipated and the Existing Plans provided only spot drainage improvements on Sunset Islands 1 & II and, in response to the desire of the residents, did not attempt to reclaim privatized swales. However, the City has determined that it is in its best interest to attempt to design a stormwater system that will accommodate a 5-year 1-day storm event. The CONSULTANT should design improvements to treat and dispose of the stormwater from a 5-year 1-day storm to the extent possible without disturbing existing swales. It is anticipated that Page 1 of 18 these improvements would include additional stormwater inlets at intersections, additional piping, and valley gutters. The water system, hardscaping, and landscaping need only be redesigned to the extent that is needed due to the new stormwater and water system. CONSULTANT shall consider the attached Exhibit C - HOA Conceptual Plan, together with the related RFQ, as a reference in developing the construction documents.ln addition, water main replacements and associated fire hydrants shall be implemented in accordance with the CITY's Water Master Plan. The CITY has contracted the services of Hazen and Sawyer, P.C. to function as PROGRAM MANAGER (PROGRAM MANAGER), and act as the CITY's agent with regard to all aspects of this scope of services. Hence, the PROGRAM MANAGER will serve as the focal point of contact with the Architectural /Engineering firm (the CONSULTANT). However, the CITY will retain contractual agreement responsibilities with the CONSULTANT. Please note that due to the large number of projects that will be ongoing coincidentally during the Program, the CITY and PROGRAM MANAGER have developed a Program Work Plan (PWP) detailing procedures and policies for the overall ROW Program. This PWP dictates the respective responsibilities and levels of authority for all program team members. Organizational structure flowcharts and team member duties are included to establish a working understanding regarding reporting and communication relationships on the Program. The PWP includes a listing of design and construction phase deliverables from the various A/Es and Contractors, along with proposed CITY and PROGRAM MANAGER duties during the planning, design, bid, award and construction phases of the Program. One copy of the PWP will be given to the CONSULTANT, who agrees to comply with procedures set forth therein. Page 2 of 78 SCOPE OF SERVICES The purpose of the Sunset Islands I & II ROW Improvement Project is to provide for the restoration and enhancement of streetscapes and infrastructure, consistent with existing available data, qualified decisions of applicable CITY Departments and community preferences. The proposed project shall include potable water, and storm drainage infrastructure upgrades, streetscape work with restoration and enhancement of the neighborhood's roadway, potable water, and storm drainage infrastructure as needed. At this point, sanitary sewer upgrades are not anticipated as part of the Project. Improvements may include restoration and enhancement to the function and aesthetics of the following: • Upgrading the stormwater drainage collection and disposal system to handle a 5- year 1-day storm event. This effort shall include all modeling efforts necessary to verify compliance with noted model requirements, and as may be required by the PWD and jurisdictional agencies to achieve a permutable design; • Replacement of existing water mains to meet City Water Master Plan recommendations. This effort includes pipe and fire hydrant replacement designs and requisite jurisdictional permit procurement. However, hydraulic modeling efforts in support of permit applications will be provided by the PWD; • Street reconstruction and resurtacing with 2" new asphalt (2 lifts) and new pavement markings; • Valley gutter curb upgrades; and The work effort shall require that all existing and proposed aboveground improvements be coordinated with existing and proposed below underground infrastructure improvements, which may include the following tasks: • Upgrading the drainage collection system; • Replacement of water mains, not including sanitary sewer lines; and • Coordination with other entities, including but not limited to, Florida Power and Light Company, BellSouth, Atlantic Broadband, and others as may exist within Page 3 of 18 the public right of way. Underground water, sewer and drainage infrastructure improvements are generally identified in: the City of Miami Beach Comprehensive Stormwater Management Program Master Plan, (March 1997), the City of Miami Beach Water System Master Plan, (November, 1994), and the Citywide Sanitary Sewer Infiltration and Inflow Mitigation Program, and in subsequent amendments to the plans and decisions of the City's Public Works Department. Total estimated construction costs budgeted for this Bid Package approximates $3,500,000, without a construction change order contingency that is to be held in reserve by the CITY for construction phase usage. Hence, the CONSULTANT shall be tasked with planning and designing a project to a total target construction budget of $3,500,000. This target construction budget is funded by Pay-As-You-Go Fund, Gulf Breeze 2006 Bond, and Proposed Future Stormwater Bond.
