FROM: Jimmy L. Morales, City Manager
DATE: December 9, 2015
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, APPROVING AND AUTHORIZING THE
MAYOR AND CITY CLERK TO EXECUTE AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN
THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH AND KIMLEY-HORN AND ASSOCIATES,
INC., PURSUANT TO REQUEST FOR QUALIFICATIONS (RFQ) NO. 2015-
213-KB, FOR THE PREPARATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS FOR
MIAMI BEACH TRANSIT PROJECTS INCLUDING THE • BEACH
CORRIDOR TRANSIT CONNECTION PROJECT AND RELATED
SERVICES.
KEY INTENDED OUTCOME SUPPORTED
Ensure Comprehensive Mobility Addressing All Modes Throughout The City/Enhance
Pedestrian Safety Universally.
FUNDING
The cost of the related services for preparation of environmental analyses for Miami Beach
transit projects, to be determined on a project by project basis, are subject to funds previously
appropriated through the City's budgeting process, with the specifics to be set forth through
separately negotiated consultant work orders for each project.
BACKGROUND
There are several initiatives underway that will require environmental review services for
Transportation projects
South Beach Portion of the Beach Transit Connection Project
In October 2013, pursuant to requests from the cities of Miami Beach and Miami, the Miami-
Dade Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) commenced a planning-level study that
refreshed and updated the decade-old Baylink study.in partnership with Miami-Dade Transit
(MDT), Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), and the cities of Miami Beach and
Miami (entitled the Beach Corridor Transit Connection Study).
The MPO study was completed in June 2015 and reaffirmed the MacArthur Causeway as the
preferred alignment to connect Miami Beach and Miami. The study recommended an off-wire
or "wireless" light rail transit/modern streetcar system for the portion within each urban area as
the preferred vehicle technology for propulsion - a more context-sensitive and community-
friendly solution for our city than elevated heavy rail or light rail cantenary ("wired") systems-

Environmental Analysis For Miami Beach Transit Projects Including The Beach Corridor Transit Connection Project
And Related Services, Pursuant To Request For Qualifications(RFQ) No. 2015-213-KB
October 14th, 2015

as well as the use of exclusive lanes for the transit vehicles in order to provide reliable service.
Phase 1 o f the recommended route alignment within Miami Beach consists. initially of the
MacArthur Causeway, 5th Street, and Washington Avenue in order to provide a direct
connection to the Miami Beach Convention Center. This initial route alignment is referred to
as the Direct Connect, with additional phases recommended for the future.
At the April 29, 2015 Commission meeting, the City Commission adopted a Resolution
expressing support for expediting the South Beach Component of the Beach Corridor Transit
Connection Project which proposes light rail transit/modern streetcar connectivity between the
cities of Miami Beach and Miami. Further, the Resolution directed the Administration to work
with the local transportation partners to expedite the South Beach Component and authorized
the Administration to procure any environmental studies required to advance the South Beach
component.
At the MPO Policy Executive Committee (PEC) meeting on May 4, 2015, the Committee
passed a Resolution approving policy directives as to how to proceed with the Baylink Project
connecting Miami and Miami Beach. Pursuant to that Resolution, in an effort to expedite at
least portions of the Baylink project, the cities of Miami and Miami Beach may in a manner
consistent with State law, proceed with their own environmental analysis. The PEC met again
on November 30, 2015 to discuss FDOT's recommendations regarding approaches to
expedite the entire project (Downtown-MacArthur Causeway- Convention Center) and allowing
each City to move forward with their portion of the project to the extent that it does not
jeopardize funding for the overall project. The FDOT proposed approach, approved by the
Federal Transit Administration (FTA), consists of an expedited approach that defines the limits
of the regional transit connectivity project to be from the Miami Beach Convention Center to
Government Center in Downtown Miami. This approach would expedite the project
development phase within a 24-month timeframe and provide the opportunity for Federal
funding up to 50 percent. of the project, as well as 50% State funding for any portion not
covered by Federal funding. In addition, this approach would also provide for financing under
the Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (TIFIA) program which provides
Federal credit assistance in the form of direct loans, in the event that Federal funding is not
available in a timely manner.
FTA and FDOT have advised that any environmental and engineering studies completed for
the Miami Beach portion of the overall regional connectivity project completed in parallel to
FDOT procurement of a Consultant for the entire project would then be provided to FDOT to
expedite completing the state's unifying project development document in compliance with
National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) standards.
Short Term Enhanced Bus Project
In order to expedite enhanced transit services in South Beach in the short term, the City has
been evaluating opportunities to initiate exclusive lane/prioritized bus service along the Direct
Connect route described above until the light rail/modern streetcar project is. implemented.
This type of service will also require environmental reviews, albeit at a much more simplistic
level.
The City has also began discussions for premium service (perhaps on-shoulders) on the Julia
Tuttle Causeway which would also require some type of environmental review.

Transportation Master Plan
As part of the Transportation Master Plan, the City Commission adopted a Resolution in July,
2015 prioritizing pedestrians, bicycles, and transit over private vehicles. In support of this
modal prioritization, the draft Transportation Master Plan includes many initiatives in support of
transit that will require environmental reviews and evaluation of proposals.
PROCUREMENT PROCESS
On July 8, 2015, the City Commission approved to issue the Request for.Qualifications (RFQ)
No. 2015-213-KB for the preparation of environmental .analysis for Miami Beach transit
projects including the Beach Corridor Transit Connection Project and related services. On
July 10, 2015, the RFQ was issued. A voluntary pre-proposal conference to provide
information to the proposers submitting a response was held on August 19, 2015. RFQ
responses were due and received on September 11, 2015. The City received a total of four(4)
proposals. The City received proposals from the following firms: Kimley-Horn & Associates,
Inc., Parsons Brinckerhoff, Inc., HNTB Corporation, and Atkins North America, Inc.
After reviewing all the submissions and the results of the evaluation process, the City Manager
recommended that the Mayor and City Commission authorize the,Administration to enter into
negotiations with the top ranked proposer, Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc.. (Kimley-Horn).
Should negotiations fail, the City Manager recommended that the Administration be authorized
to enter into negotiations with the second ranked proposer, Parsons Brinckerhoff, Inc.
(Parsons). Should negotiations fail with the second ranked proposer, the City Manager
recommended that the Administration be authorized to enter into negotiations with the third
ranked proposer, HNTB Corporation (HNTB).
At the October 14, 2015 Commission meeting, the Manager was directed by the City
Commission to negotiate with the top two proposers (Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. and
Parsons Brinckerhoff, Inc.), however, subsequent to the October 14, 2015 Commission
meeting, on November 2, 2015, the City's Procurement Director received notification from
Parsons Brinckerhoff, Inc. that stated the following:
"We are standing down from negotiations and are working in good faith within the
procurement process to accept a role under a single contract arrangement."
Given the withdrawal of Parsons from negotiations, the Administration, in consultation with the
City Attorney, advised Parsons that, if withdrawn from negotiations, any role that they would
perform for the engagement would need to be in a sub-consultant role directed negotiated
between Kimley-Horn and Parsons without the City's involvement.
The services to be provided shall support the City staff in all aspects of advancing and
implementing the "Preparation of Environmental Analysis for Miami Beach Transit Projects,
including the Beach Corridor Transit Connection Project and Related Services." The specifics
of the work items associated with these services have not been finalized at this time. Some of

visioning; data collection and analyses; environmental analyses and permitting; stakeholder
coordination and public engagement; reporting to the City, State, and Federal agencies as
required; design and engineering; procurement support and other activities as necessary.

On October 14, 2015, the City Commission considered the City Manager's
recommendation pursuant to the above-referenced RFQ. Following discussion,
the City Commission directed the Administration to negotiate with the top two
proposers (Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. and Parsons .Brinckerhoff, Inc.).
The Procurement Department scheduled negotiation meetings with both firms.
However, on November 2, 2015, prior to its scheduled negotiation meeting, the
City's Procurement Director received notice from Parsons Brinckerhoff; Inc., that •
it was withdrawing from negotiations with the City. The notification from Parsons
stated the following
"We are standing down from negotiations and are working in good faith
within the procurement process to accept a role under a single contract
arrangement."
Given, the withdrawal of Parsons from negotiations, the Administration, in
consultation with the City Attorney, advised Parsons that, if withdrawn from
negotiations, any role that they would perform for the engagement would need to
be in a sub-consultant role directed negotiated between Kimley-Horn and
Parsons without the City's involvement.

BACKGROUND,
The City of Miami Beach, Florida is located on a barrier island between the Biscayne Bay and
the Atlantic Ocean, just east of the City of Miami, Florida. It is connected to the City of Miami
on the mainland via four causeways. The City is the predominant tourist destination of South
Florida. The City has a population of approximately 87,779, in addition to the millions of
tourists that visit each year.

For over two years, the City has been working in partnership with the Miami-Dade Metropolitan
Planning Organization (MPO), Miami-Dade Transit (MDT), Florida Department of
Transportation (FDOT), and the City of Miami as part of the ongoing Beach Corridor Transit
Connection Study (formerly known as the Baylink Corridor Study) studying ways to improve
mass transit connectivity between the City of Miami Beach and Downtown Miami.
The Study commenced in October 2013 and focuses on re-evaluating the "Locally Preferred
Alternative" (resulting from the 2004 Baylink Corridor Study), which proposed a light rail
transit/modern streetcar connection between Miami Beach and Downtown Miami, via the
MacArthur Causeway. A Technical Advisory Committee (TAO)comprised of staff from various
municipal and transportation agencies and a Policy Executive Committee (PEC) comprised of
elected officials from Miami-Dade County, the City of Miami Beach, and the City of Miami was
established as an advisory- committee of the MPO to assist the Study consultant team in
making key milestone decisions through the Study process.
At this time, the Study recommendations focus on a Light Rail Transit (LRT)/modern streetcar
system connecting Miami Beach and Downtown Miami via the MacArthur Causeway. Several
new and emerging catenary-free or off-wire technologies for LRT are being evaluated,
including ground-embedded rail and on-board battery storage. The recommended alignment
within Miami Beach consists initially of the MacArthur Causeway, 5th Street, and Washington
Avenue (in order to establish a direct connection to the Miami Beach Convention Center). A
second phase would include an alignment along Alton Road and 17th Street which would
operate as a local route solely within Miami Beach and complement the initial regional cross-
bay route to Downtown Miami. The study contemplates future route expansion along Collins
Avenue to the Julia Tuttle Causeway, connecting to Midtown Miami. In order to provide
efficient and effective mass transit service, the Project will operate on exclusive rights-of-way
and not in mixed traffic.
At the April 29, 2015 Commission meeting, the City Commission adopted a Resolution
expressing support for expediting the South Beach Component of the Beach Corridor Transit
Connection Project which proposes light rail transit/modern streetcar connectivity between the
cities of Miami Beach and Miami. Further, the Resolution directed the Administration to work
with the local transportation partners to expedite the South Beach Component and authorized
the Administration to procure any environmental studies required to advance the South Beach
component.
The South Beach Component of the Beach Corridor Transit Connection Project will include,
but not be limited to, the following transportation corridors: SR A1A/5th Street from SR
907/Alton Road to Washington Avenue; Washington Avenue from SR A1A/5th Street to Dade
Boulevard; Dade Boulevard from Meridian Avenue to 23rd Street; and Convention Center
Drive.
At the PEC meeting on May 4, 2015, the Committee passed a Resolution approving policy
directives as to how to proceed with the Baylink Project connecting Miami and Miami Beach.
Pursuant to that Resolution, in an effort to expedite at least portions of the Baylink project, the
cities of Miami and Miami Beach may, in a manner consistent with State law, proceed with
their own environmental analysis.
RFQ PROCESS
On July 8, 2015, the City Commission approved to issue the Request for Qualifications (RFQ)
No. 2015-213-KB for the preparation of environmental analysis for Miami Beach transit
projects including the Beach Corridor Transit Connection Project and related services. On

Miami Beach Streetcar Project i An unsolicted proposal
•
B. THE PROJECT AND THE TEAM
131. The context and rationale for the Project_
Within 5 years of the City's incorporation in 1915,electric streetcars were rolling through the streets of
Miami Beach. The streetcar system,operated by Carl Fisher's"Miami Beach Streetcar Company,"
allowed passengers to travel across the MacArthur Causeway,then north from South Beach to Dade
Boulevard for a modest fare of 10 cents.
A lot has changed in the last one-hundred years. Most notably,the City of Miami Beach has become a
regional economic driver and top international destination, attracting millions of visitors each year.
With its growing reputation,the City has also attracted millions of vehicles onto its roadways,making
Miami-Dade County one of the most congested metropolitan areas in the US. Meanwhile,Carl Fisher's
once-thriving streetcar system has disappeared.
Local officials have long recognized the need to re-build a streetcar system that connects the cities of
Miami and Miami Beach and alleviates traffic congestion in the busy South Beach district.Over the last
27 years,four separate studies have examined the implementation of a streetcar system that extends
into Miami Beach. These studies have generated significant support amongst political leaders and the
general public. In November 2004,for example,the residents of the City of Miami Beach approved the
streetcar concept in a non-binding straw vote.Yet despite the numerous studies and expressions of
public support,the Miami Beach streetcar system has not moved forward, in part because it has
historically been viewed only as part of the larger,more expensive Baylink project—rather than a viable
standalone project that could be developed as the first phase of a broader program.
Today,the City of Miami Beach is at a crossroads. Traffic conditions in the City are extremely
challenging,and they are expected to worsen as the City attracts more residents,tourists,and
businesses.
According to the Beach Corridor Transit Connection Study dated September 24, 2014 prepared by
Gannett Fleming,building permits in the City increased by nearly 25%between 2010 and 2012;the
number of hotel rooms in the City increased by 19%between 2007 and 2012;and the number of jobs on
South Beach increased by 19.5%between 2007 and 2012. In addition,the City Commission has recently
approved an ambitious program to renovate the City of Miami Beach Convention Center and add an
800-room convention center hotel. While these developments present exciting opportunities for
growth,they will also create additional pressure on the City's already-strained transportation system.
Recognizing the critical need for a streetcar solution in Miami Beach, local leaders—including City of
Miami Beach Mayor Philip Levine and Miami-Dade County Mayor Carlos Gimenez—have led an effort to
adopt a phased implementation for the Baylink project. This allows the City of Miami Beach to elect to
proceed with its streetcar project immediately. This phased approach has been endorsed by the Policy
Executive Committee(PEC)created as part of the Beach Corridor Transit Connection Study,as well as
the Miami Beach City Commission. During its Transportation Workshop on March 18,2015,the City
Commission expressed a desire to reduce reliance on personal vehicles in Miami Beach and directed the
City administration to identify funding to construct a modern wireless streetcar/light rail solution from
5th Street through Washington Avenue up to the Miami Beach Convention Center. This Proposal,to
develop the Miami Beach Streetcar Project as Phase 1 of the Beach Corridor Transit Connection Project,
is designed to provide immediate traffic congestion relief and address the transportation priorities

expressed by the PEC,the City Mayor,City Commission and most importantly, by the Miami Beach
' community.
Further,the solution described in this proposal is consistent with other PEC recommendations for
exclusive right-of-way,full wireless solution,compatibility with future phases of the Beach Corridor
Transit Connection Project and in respect of track alignment.

I Track alignment ,
II The Miami Beach Streetcar Project will serve the south Miami Beach area, providing:.
I • Loop connection from 5th Street to the Convention Center through Washington Avenue;
II • Exclusive right-of-way, no shared lanes;
II • Between 8 to 10 simple and integrated stations evenly distributed to serve Miami Beach points
of interest,taking into consideration strategic future development;and
0 • Future linkage to the future Beach Corridor Transit Connection, without operation disruption on
I the existing Miami Beach Streetcar alignment.
II Streetcar features
The Miami Beach Streetcar Project will use the best in class streetcar vehicles:
II
• Modern,aesthetically pleasing,and extendable to allow future ridership growth;
I
• Full low floor(no interior steps or ramp,easy onboard circulation with spacious access areas)
It wide slide doors each side to facilitate full access for all users, particularly bicycles and mobility
Itt challenged patrons,ADA compliant(perfect alignment between platform and the streetcar);
It • Designed to enhance passenger experience with passenger information system, modern •
0 lighting,and increased visibility inside and outside the streetcar;
• Able to be driven in both directions(bidirectional);and

Miami Beach Streetcar Project I An unsolicted proposal 4
• Designed and styled to represent the iconic individual identity of Miami Beach: through a
collaborative and interactive process, shape (streetcar front end), interior arrangement (seats, t
perch, bicycles racks)material,color,and external livery will be jointly defined.

Wireless solution 4
The Miami Beach Streetcar will preserve the aesthetical environment by use of a fully wireless solution
(wireless means no overhead wire—also referred to as"off-wire"or"catenaryless"or"catenary-free"or
"wire-free")along the whole alignment,that will allow seamless visual and aesthetic integration.Such a
solution will also preserve a rich landscape in the city, by keeping the existing palm trees,and also
prevents potential electrical hazards(such as with emergency vehicles,or double deck bus). In addition, I
during hurricane season and other periods of high wind,the wireless system will not impinge the normal
operation of the streetcar.
Alstom Transport has implemented all the existing wireless technologies currently in service in dozens of
locations around the world: 1
• Ground-level power system,is based on a continuous power supply by a rail located between the
running rails:
o The power is continuously supplied to the streetcar vehicle through a segmented street-
level power rail embedded between the running rails in the axis of the track;
o It can operate in harsh climatic conditions such as extreme temperatures,humidity,heavy
rain,while maintaining full onboard utilities such as air conditioning in extremely high
temperature;
o There is no electrical power limitation, no risk running out of power in degraded operation
mode.
• Onboard energy storage system is based on on-board energy storage,with batteries and/or
super-capacitors:
to run from station to
station but the
r stored in super capacitors allows the streetcars
o Ene Energy s p p
streetcars need to be electrically recharged at each station.These systems are designed to
cope with limited disruption in traffic without impacting performance,however, if the
streetcar is disrupted for a longer period (pedestrians,emergency breaks,vehicles blocked
at road crossing),the streetcar air conditioning system runs in limited operation or shuts off
completely; •
o Super-capacitors have a limited range and as such require frequent static recharge at
specific locations along the line(usually at every ry p assen er station),this means that the
P eriodically rather than
the need to be recharged placement of stations is also governed by g
only being placed at locations for the sole benefit of the traveler
o Batteries cannot be quickly recharged (unlike super-capacitors that will be refilled at each
station)and therefore need to be refilled through a section with catenary(wire);
o Onboard energy storage system requires much heavier equipment to be installed on the
roof of the streetcar that have significant maintenance requirements and are sensitive to
extremes of temperature and humidity.
Based on the above comparison of the different wireless solutions and considering the performance
requirements,the best suited wireless solution for the Miami Beach Street Car Project is the ground-
level power system technology. For the implementation of this system,we propose Alstom's ground-
level power system technology APS solution because:,
— _ — --— — _— Page 16 _.___.,__— -- — ——— ---
p Greater Miami Tramlink Partners
• Unlimited power supply; high performances(matching catenary performances);
• 100%of energy transmitted to vehicles(no loss);
• Guarantees the same commercial speed as a power supply by catenary;
' • High availability(availability rate of 99.95%for typical 2-km of double track application, lifetime
of 30 years)for optimum streetcar operation performance due to the simplicity of the concept
1 based on a sliding contact of the same nature as standard metro/commuters third rail current-
collection systems;
/ • All the sections not covered by streetcar vehicle are not powered,guarantying total safety for all
road users;
• Completely intrinsic safe system (proven through a dedicated Safety Case confirmed by 6
1 certifying Authorities including CERTIFER,STRMTG and Lloyd's);
d • Dust tight and protected against complete sub mersion in water,with submarine cables,
0 impervious to possible salt in the ground that may arise from high tide and sea level rise;
il • Compatible with the extreme weather conditions(nominal operation up to+185°F);
• Designed to respect the EMC(Electro Magnetic Compatibility)and the acoustic constraints;
1
• Designed to cope with any kind of road surfaces including the grass;
• Designed to cope with mechanical stress caused by traffic(at street crossing);
• Easy e xtension of rail system lines;
• Equipped with on board battery to run in autonomous mode in case of any defective or
inoperable(flooded)ground-level power system's section(please also refer to following section
I for platform drainage); and
I • Fully reliable and in-service proven solution,in operation for more than 12 years;since 2003, `i
188 Alstom streetcar vehicles powered by APS system have run over 18 million kilometers;62
kilometers of single track have been equipped with APS.

I Compatibility of system features
10 The Miami Beach Streetcar Project is the first phase of the Beach Corridor Transit Connection Project,
t which can be fully interoperable with any development made for the two other phases.The
•
interoperable characteristics include:
1/ • Standard streetcar gauge and length;
• Standard 750 Vdc traction system electrification;
• Track with standard gauge,AREMA compliant rail,wheel axle load 13T(AW4);
• Interlocking and TSP (Transit Signal Priority) systems compatible with any modern streetcar
system;
E • AVLS(Automatic Vehicle Location System) will operate using GPS,GSM or Sign Post systems;
Q • Option for ticketing,that will be consistent with Miami Dade County integrated ticketing system;
® • Ground-level power system (Alstom's.APS)license/equipment:
4 o Ground-level power system wayside equipment uses proprietary technology solution
0. developed by Alstom,who will enter into a committed commercial agreement regarding the
license for free use of this technology for any other phase of Beach Corridor Transit
6 Connection Project,or any of its extensions.

Miami Beach Streetcar Project An unsolicted proposal
o Onboard equipment(streetcar collector shoes to connect the energy rail)can be provided
by any standard streetcar manufacturer with the similar vehicle configuration, based on
interface documents that Alstom will provide.
o Our streetcar,equipped with pantograph for its exclusive use in the depot area, is fully
compatible with any possible option for the electrical technology(with or without catenary)
to be used for Phase 3(the MacArthur Causeway Corridor Project),as opposed to a super-
capacitors based solution(solution for which it exists a distance limit between recharging,
station). °
Operational and maintainable system
The Miami Beach Streetcar Project will be operated and maintained autonomously, until it is eventually
connected to the other phases of the Beach Corridor Transit Connection project. Its design will thus
take into consideration the following elements.
• One operation and maintenance depot facility(yard and shops facility)sized :
o To store the entire Miami Beach Streetcar project fleet, including spares and maintenance
vehicles;
o To perform all daily operation and maintenance activities during lifetime of the Miami Beach
Streetcar project;
o To house the centralized operational control center(OCC)where the whole subsystems will
be supervised and monitored (SCADA system,vehicle location system,communications,
security;and
o For 20 hours per day operation.
• System sized for an operation at minimum 5 minute headways(depot,stabling,and electrical
substations,signaling system).
Other design features
The Miami Beach Streetcar Project will be designed to allow the most efficient services, by integrating
i
following elements in our design:
• Transit System Priority(TSP)system,providing green light to the streetcar when approaching to
any street light,in order to optimize streetcar fluidity within urban environment;
• Line of sight operation,the driver being fully responsible for taking care of the surrounding
environment(car,other streetcar,speed limit);
• Provision for fare collection system(option)compatible with Miami Dade County Policy(full
•
interoperability with existing public transport systems);and
• Platform stops with canopy shelters,designed to perfectly blend into the area and with the
Streetcar,ADA Compliant,that will provide comfort to the passenger(street furniture—
benches,station lighting),as well as useful passenger information(Network map,automated
passenger information(real-time next train announcements)...).
Location specific design features
The Miami Beach Streetcar Project will take into consideration possible exceptional flooding in the
design:
-------- Page 16

• Track alignment will match with existing roadway elevation as close as possible, in roads having
existing crown elevations of over 3.7ft,except on 5th Street near Alton Road where the crown
may be less;
, • The existing drainage system should not need to be enhanced due to the Miami Beach Streetcar
project because there is a minimal additional run-off created by the project; and
p • We will perform the necessary drainage and storm water management analysis, including
I utilizing the recently approved tailwater elevation design criteria of 2.7 ft NAVD. This will take
into consideration the City of Miami Beach program to install a city-wide pumping system to
mitigate flash flooding compounded by sea level rise and to comply with the new regulations for
/ tailwater elevations.
I
1 C2. Conceptual plan for the provision of services
1 Ridership assumptions
In preparing the operations and maintenance plan underlying this proposal,we have developed a
conceptual level of anticipated ridership at 23,000 patrons per day and per direction.This is based upon
1 data sources available to us and through logical assumption derived from geographical distribution of
1 potential patrons.
Among other things,we have examined:
1 • Daily population data tables that identify permanent residents,Seasonal residents, hotel guests,
other tourists and non-tourist beach visitors;
I • City of Miami Beach Community Satisfaction Report(CMBCSR);and
1 • Google derived bus ridership data for 123 South Beach Local(which covers more than 50%of
1 the alignment).
We have assumed a uniform distribution of the 90,000 permanent residents and that the 30,000
1 commuters daily to the City of Miami will not utilize the service. From the remaining 60,000 we have
assumed 30,000 residents have geographical access to the alignment.Using data provided by the
CMBCSR approximately 46%would utilize an alternative public transportation method if available.This
1 means from the 30,000 residents in question we assume around a 12,000 patron contribution to the
1 ridership figure.
III Hotel guests and other tourists make up around 39,000,and applying the same logic and the CMBCSR
1 figures,we have assumed that approximately 20,000 patrons would consider utilizing the streetcar.
Further,we have also assumed approximately 1/3 of these patrons would have budgetary constraints
1 such that the use of the streetcar would be a preferred transportation mode,therefore we have
I approximately an additional 7,000 patron contribution to the ridership figure.
I There are around 30,000 non-tourist beach visitors with the car as their primary mode of transportation.
We have assumed an even distribution of these visitors between North and South Beach resulting in
15,000 patrons with access to the alignment.Given the car is the primary mode of transportation we
h have assumed 10%utilization from time to time providing a 1,500 contribution to the ridership figure.
I! We have also examined existing bus ridership particularly for the 123 South Beach Local route as more
I than 50%of this route is covered by the proposed alignment. Unlike the bus service,our alignment is
PI bidirectional so we have assumed a 75%capture rate from this service and factored in figures from the
1 CMBCSR adding a 2,500 contribution to the ridership figure.

e the achievement of the milestones outlined below.
I Table C3.2 Key construction period milestones
I
Milestone Date
1
' Issue of Notice to Proceed(°NTP") Financial Close
Commencement of preliminary design NTP to NTP+8
Procurement phase NTP+6 to NTP+30
1 Commencement of construction works NTP+8
First vehicles delivered to site NTP+24
Testing and commissioning NTP+30 up to NTP+36
NTP will be defined under the Comprehensive Agreement as the commencement
of the works which we assume will coincide with Financial Close
8 Upon execution of the Interim Agreement,Preliminary Engineering will be completed by Greater Miami
8 Tramlink Partners(30%Design),which,will serve as the technical basis of the Comprehensive Agreement
to be signed between Greater Miami Tramlink Partners and the City of Miami Beach(as contemplated in
S Milestone).. Such activity will be considered early works. (The Interim Agreement will define the scope
4 and payment terms for such early works).
S We assume that from NTP,construction will take up to a maximum of 36 months for start of revenue
service (commercial operation),according to acceptance criteria to be commonly agreed between the
parties and set out in the Comprehensive Agreement.
It is considered that all permitting(City,County,State, Federal),as requested by Greater Miami Tramlink
Partners to be able to start the work,will be cleared by the City at the time of the NTP.
4 It is also considered,in order to ensure a fluid construction schedule,that utility relocations,sidewalk
0 and street pavement modification(not included in this proposal)based on the proposed track alignment
will have been performed prior to the start of the construction works. '
le Project construction will be scheduled in phases to minimize construction impacts to vehicular traffic
§ and the community,and our Team will keep this expectation foremost in the development of traffic
management plans, by providing safe accessibility for vehicles,bicyclists,and pedestrians(access to
residential homes and commercial properties),and safe conditions for construction workers at all times.
Greater Miami Tramlink Partners will also take_ advantage of its unique expertise and knowledge of local
% business to,wherever practicable, participate and ensure proper coordination with other existing
PI projects under execution which interface with the Project works.
After the first streetcar delivery on site,on line dynamic tests will be performed to assess the sub system
WI and system integration, by section,and then for the entire line.Once the system is on line and all the
components have demonstrated full integration and the safety requirements are met,a trial run period
will be performed by the operator before commercial(revenue)service starts. •'

Operating period
During the first 2 years of construction,Serco's approach will be to engage with the EPC team and the
City of Miami Beach to develop the design and build the streetcar system with operational concepts at
the forefront. Serco will ensure that the safety and security of passengers,staff and infrastructure
remain as paramount considerations in all work undertaken and advice given.
Serco will provide early engagement in this period with the team to help envisage the customer '
experience to ensure that hat Greater Miami Tramlink Partners facilitates the principle of the 'door to door'
journey that will become embedded into the culture at all stages of the project and across all interfaces.
Serco will also influence the project definition prior to finalization to avoid costly errors,omissions or
oversights that could affect operational delivery, performance and flexibility. Through early
engagement,Serco will be able to call on experienced staff in every functional disciple to review
systems, infrastructure designs and fit-out drawings and create Standard Operating Procedures(SOPs) ,
with the purpose of ensuring ease and efficiency of operation and maintenance,enhancing passenger
and staff safety and improving the customer experience.
Serco has an operational readiness activity stream that will be introduced to the program once the
operating procedures and work instructions are in place. These will be linked with the City's own
requirements for trial running to create a systematic and logical build up to commencement of revenue
service. We will be fully staffed and completing training from our EPC partners with system acceptance
testing gearing up for Operational Readiness and Trial Operations.
The aim of the trial operations will be for Serco to prove the operation of the Miami Beach Streetcar
Project through operating the system to the agreed timetable,with Alstom (acting as Serco's
maintenance subcontractor)conducting normal maintenance in accordance with their agreed plans and
procedures.Where faults or failures occur,they should be rectified in line with the agreed procedures.
Communication between Greater Miami Tramlink Partners and with the City of Miami Beach will be
scheduled daily throughout this period in order to address and rectify any"teething problems"which
may occur.
D. PROPERTY INTERESTS
A DESCRIPTION OF THE METHOD BY WHICH THE PRIVATE ENTITY PROPOSES TO SECURE THE NECESSARY PROPERTY
INTERESTS THAT ARE REQUIRED FOR THE QUALIFYING PROJECT
The Miami Beach Streetcar Project will operate within the existing Miami Beach roadway rights-of-way
(or within permanent easement for shared use),whether owned by the State of Florida, Miami-Dade
County,or the City of Miami Beach. It is thus anticipated that no property acquisition to implement the
Miami Beach Streetcar Project will be required.
Sidewalk,curb cut,and curb and gutter modifications to integrate the streetcar into the adjacent
infrastructure and to reduce traffic congestion generated from vehicles searching for a parking space in
the entertainment district will also be performed within the existing right-of-way.
Electrical substations to feed the wireless system will be located in areas that will not require property
acquisition through eminent domain,or may be integrated with other projects currently under
development.
Temporary easements that may be necessary during construction period will be dealt by and under
Greater Miami Tramlink Partners.

E. FINANCING PLAN .
' A DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIVATE ENTITY'S GENERAL PLANS FOR FINANCING THE QUALIFYING PROJECT,INCLUDING
THE SOURCES OF THE PRIVATE ENTITY'S FUNDS AND THE IDENTITY OF ANY DEDICATED REVENUE SOURCE OR
PROPOSED DEBT OR EQUITY INVESTMENT ON BEHALF OF THE PRIVATE ENTITY
The development and implementation of the financing plan will be led by the Equity Investors who have
0 an established track record of successful project management and financing that will ensure execution
certainty and ongoing financial performance and management of the Project.
El. Sources of private financing
The Equity Investors,through a combination of debt and equity,will finance the development of the
Project. This will include financing:
9 • the development costs incurred to develop the Project(which will include those activities
9 necessary to define the Project and provide a fixed price to the City including(i)feasibility study
/ (ii)development of design(iii)legal,technical and financial due diligence necessary to secure
third party debt financing);
• the capital costs of construction(minus public funding that is contributed by the City of Miami
0 Beach (if any));and
• the financing costs of providing debt and equity to fund such capital costs of construction.
As is typical in a P3 availability project,this financing will be repaid to the Project Company over time
through the annual service payments made by the City of Miami Beach during the term of the
li Comprehensive Agreement—which will also include the costs of operating and maintaining the Project
(further described in Section Fl (Structure of Service Payments)).
li
The Equity Investors will secure a combination of equity and debt capital to finance the Project and will
follow well established principles of project financing to secure commitments and achieve financial close
/ within the timeline, and in the manner further described in Section E3 below.
5 Equity
5 Equity capital will be provided by InfraRed,Walsh Investors and Alstom as the Equity Investors and
shareholders in the Project Company that will be established on or before financial close to deliver the
® Project(refer to Section B5 above). The Equity Investors have a demonstrated track record of investing
® equity capital in infrastructure projects and have collectively committed equity capital to support bids
b for,and achieve financial close of, more than 20 P3 projects in North America valued in excess of$15B.
b Figure E1.1 Sources of Equity
b Equity Investor Equity Proportion Intended sources of equity
III InfraRed 80% InfraRed Infrastructure Fund III
•
® Walsh Investors 15% The Walsh Family
0 Alstom 5% ALSTOM Transport SA
® Based on our current analysis,the combined financial capacity of the Equity Investors far exceeds the
likely equity requirement for the Project. This level of redundancy in equity capital means that there is
I little(if any) risk of an equity capital shortfall by financial close.

InfraRed
The role of InfraRed on all its availability-based P3s is as developer or co-developer and equity investor,
providing equity to meet the funding requirements of the relevant project. In all P3s where InfraRed has
submitted a proposal,and been awarded preferred proposer status, it has fulfilled its equity
commitment. InfraRed's investment in the Project will be sourced from InfraRed Infrastructure Fund III.
The Fund is structured as a series of limited partnerships based in England.InfraRed Capital Partners
Limited is the fund manager and InfraRed Infrastructure III General Partner Limited is the general
partner.The Fund has secured$1.2178 of commitments from investors.Of this available capital,
approximately$650M remains available to InfraRed Capital Partners Limited (as manager of the Fund) i
to commit to infrastructure projects. InfraRed will use these funds for its equity commitment to the
Project. Based on our understanding of the potential capital costs of the Project, InfraRed has the ".
capacity to increase its equity participation,as required,to accommodate changes to the financing
structure(for example if there is a reduction in the anticipated amount of public funding).
Walsh Investors
Walsh Investors,an affiliate of The Walsh Group,has played a major role in the recent growth of the
U.S. P3 market both as a developer and an investor. Walsh Investors works hand-in-hand with its Walsh
Group affiliates,including Archer Western,to develop P3 projects in the transportation and social
infrastructure segments across the U.S.and Canada.Walsh Investors is committed to investing in major
•
and marquee projects critical to the long-term viability of the communities it serves, including the
Project. By exclusively investing in projects developed and/or constructed by affiliated Walsh entities,
Walsh Investors demonstrates its financial commitment to the underlying project and project sponsor,
with guiding principles that it hold equity investments long term and remains one of the client's primary
points of contact throughout the project term.
Walsh Investors' intent is to utilize its internal financial resources to realize investment in this Project.
These internal resources will be sourced from the Walsh family and their affiliated investment entities.
Alstom Transport
Alstom Transport has identified the Project as a key target in its growth strategy. As for all its
availability-based P3 projects,Alstom Transportation is a long-term equity investor and is able to
provide additional equity if required. Alstom's participation as minority equity investor as well as lead
member of the EPC Contractor and long-term maintenance provider-ensures an alignment of interests
in the long-term success and financial and technical performance of the Project. Alstom Transport is
one of the top P3 railway concessionaires in the world,with a track record of 13 P3 rail transportation
projects that are under construction or in operations.
BMO Capital Markets
BMO Capital Markets GKST Inc..("BMO"or"BMO Capital Markets") is part of the investment banking
division of BMO Financial Group("BMOFG"),one of the largest financial institutions in North America by
assets. BMOFG's long term credit rating as of this date is Aa3 with Moody's,A+with Standard &Poor's,
and AA-with Fitch,all of which carry stable outlooks from each rating agency.As of January 12th,2015,
BMOFG had a market capitalization of$42.6 billion and$493.4 billion in total assets with one of the
strongest capital bases in global banking. BMO Capital Markets operates with over 2,300 employees
across 30 major cities worldwide,including 15 in the United States.The U.S.division of BMO is
headquartered in Chicago with regional headquarters in New York, Houston,and San Francisco. BMO
Capital Markets provides its full slate of products and services to U.S.corporate,government,and
institutional clients. BMO Capital Markets has served in a leading role on over$20 billion of

p
tl Greater Miami Trarnlink Partners
transportation and other infrastructure project financings across North America since 2001.Over the
years, BMO has developed a specific expertise in infrastructure finance and,in particular,the
transportation sector.BMO has acted as advisor, bond underwriter,and lender on a wide variety of
projects in North America,many which have received widespread industry recognition. BMO is serving
as financial transaction advisor to the Equity Investors for the Project.
Likely senior debt sources: private activity bonds (PABs)
Our financial plan contemplates the issuance of long-term fixed-rate PABs through a government
conduit issuer selected for us. Issuing the PABs would result in the full amount of bond proceeds going
into the project fund where they would remain unused until needed, providing access to the current
historically low interest rate environment and alleviate future market access risk. The PABs would be
the unconditional obligation of the Project Company and would have no recourse to the conduit issuer
or other government entities.
Upon confirming the allocation of and legality of issuing PABs,the Government's obligation will continue
to be only the scheduled Service Payments. It is our intention to structure a PABs issuance that would
target principal amortization to fit within acceptable projected coverage ratios and to minimize the total
cost during the early stages of the Project. Figure E1.2 below illustrates the suggested amortization
profile over the term of the Comprehensive Agreement.

g g
b PABs can be aligned near the Concession end date. The plan of finance assumes Long-term PABs have a
g P g
final maturity of six months prior to the expiry of the Comprehensive Agreement.
Bank Debt
Bank Debt
The Equity Investors and BMO Capital Markets have strong relationships with project finance banks and
have assessed both long-term and short-term bank financing options on recent projects. Depending on
the structure of the public subsidy,we will explore bank financing options, particularly with respect to
any short-term or gap funding requirements during the construction period,to secure the most efficient
financing package available. After our initial review,we have determined that bank debt,due to its
short duration,is not presently an attractive alternative for the long term financing. We would expect
to continue to monitor the market. The Equity Investors will work with prospective banks to create an
over-subscription of the funding requirements to ensure adequate financial resources and to create
competition to obtain the best possible terms and conditions.

Miami Beach Streetcar Project An unsolicted proposal
implementing the financing plan
Approach to developing and 9
E2. App p 9 P
The Equity Investors propose to provide a cost-effective and deliverable project financing for the
Project. This will be achieved by(among other things):
• Adopting an optimal financing and capital structure that delivers the lowest possible cost of
capital and best value for money for the City of Miami Beach;
• Conducting a financing process that ensures funding redundancy while retaining flexibility to
shift between markets in order to benefit from the most competitive funding terms at any time
during the negotiation phase;
• Securing necessary credit ratings from rating agencies to ensure a high level of certainty that
Greater Miami Tramlink Partners will reach financial close promptly and efficiently;
• Minimizing the cost of senior private debt funding by running a competitive process between
different financial structures such as capital markets and bank debt to ensure that the lowest •
cost of debt is secured;
• Engaging project finance lenders and underwriters with an exemplary record of accomplishment
of delivering committed financing on comparable P3 projects; and
• Developing a robust contractual and financing structure to accommodate the risk allocation
mostly likely to achieve competitive financing.
•
E3. Timeline for securing commitments and reaching financial close
During the period from execution of the Interim Agreement to the execution of the Comprehensive
Agreement and financial close(further described in Section C3 above),the Equity Investors,together
with their financial advisor—BMO-will manage a competitive funding process to:
• Undertake•a due diligence process to allow debt providers the comfort to provide committed
support;
• Leverage the experience and relationships of the Equity Investors and BMO with the financial
community to quickly develop a funding structure that will be acceptable to potential lenders;
• Negotiate financing agreements on terms that are competitive and deliverable;
• Obtain committed financing for bank debt or a volume underwrite from bond underwriters,as
applicable, in an amount that provides adequate redundancy in the event of a failure of a lender
to honor their commitment.
The team's financial specialists will work diligently during this period to evaluate the viable funding
options need for an optimal solution as the Project's cost inputs are refined during design development
and the risk transfer is clarified.
Financial close is the critical milestone in a P3 transaction because it represents the moment that funds
(e.g. bank loans,bond proceeds(in the case of a PABs financing),equity capital)are available and start
flowing so that project implementation can start. Financial close cannot occur until all the project and
financing agreements have been signed and all the required conditions contained in them have been
met.
The financing agreements will be negotiated between the Project Company(acting as the borrower)and
the senior lenders(banks or bond underwriter depending on which capital structure is selected).

1 Typically,the key conditions that are contained in the financing agreements,that must be met before
1 the financing can achieve"close" and funds become available to the borrower(in this case the Project
Company) include:
1
• the project agreement is executed (in this case—the Comprehensive Agreement is signed as
part of the commercial close process);
• the key subcontracts are executed (in this case the EPC Agreement between the Project
1 Company and the EPC Contractor and the Operations and Maintenance Agreement between the
1 Project Company and the Operator(each as described in Section B5)); ;'
/ • the main permitting and planning approvals have been secured; ,
• the key land acquisition steps(if any) have been achieved;
1
1 • all internal approvals required to be obtained by the procuring agency have been obtained(in
this case the City of Miami Beach has(i) by way of a legal opinion provided by the City
/ Attorney or external legal counsel selected by the City of Miami Beach the legality of the
procurement,authority to enter into the Comprehensive Agreement and approval of
derogations from any standard contracting terms and (ii)obtained approval from the Miami
Dade County to operate the Project as evidenced in an inter-local agreement).
Based on our experience,a considerable amount of detailed work and co-ordination between the
/ Greater Miami Tramlink Partners and the City's team will be required to reach financial close—such
work and co-ordination will be defined and agreed between the parties during the period from
• execution of the Interim Agreement to execution of the Comprehensive Agreement(Milestone#6 in
Table C3-1 above). All conditions precedent to financial close will be set out in the Comprehensive `
Agreement.

Miami Beach Streetcar Project I An unsolicted proposal
Diagram E3 below outlines an indicative timeline and milestone of events which reflects a proven 1
approach that we consider is realistic and will ensure achievement of financial close. Note that this
diagram is consistent with Table C3-1 and contemplates a 60-day period between executing the
Comprehensive Agreement(which is required to reach commercial close)and achieving
financial close. �
A tighter timeframe could be achieved if financial close occurs at the same time as commercial close.
Financial close occurring concurrently with commercial close(evidenced by the execution of the
Comprehensive Agreement) been achieved on other P3 projects in the US and is standard practice in
jurisdictions such as Canada. The Equity Investors have experience with both approaches(concurrent
commercial and financial close or split commercial and financial close)and suggest this be an issue for
discussion as part of the negotiation of the Interim Agreement.
E4. Public funding and actions of the City
The amount of debt and equity financing referred to above will depend on whether the City of Miami
Beach contributes funding of the upfront capital expenditure during construction.
Public P a Y ments during construction are typically structured as periodic payments-either progress
to a pre-agreed stage)or
payments(multiple payments paid as the value of he works is completed P g
milestone P a Y ments(paid when,pre-determined construction milestones have been attained),or as
substantial completion payments made when the project is delivered. Some jurisdictions in Florida have
also used gap financing to make substantial completion payments over a number of years after
substantial completion.
We note that public funding sources for the Project could include Florida New Starts Transit Program
("NSTP"). This program provides transit agencies with a proportional match of the non-federal share of
certain qualified project costs that qualify under the Florida NSTP. For projects not approved for federal
funding,the maximum state share under the NSTP may be limited to 12.5%of eligible costs. We further
•
understand that the.Florida Department of Transport is authorized to fund up to 50%of the costs that
are local in scope and that will improve system efficiencies,ridership,or revenues under this program.
To receive NSTP funds,we understand that the Project would need to be included within the
Transportation Improvement Program("TIP"),in order to become part of the 2040 Long-Range
Transportation Plan as a"Priority I" project. From this point the Project is automatically included in the.
Strategic Intermodal System First Five Year plan which ensures eligibility to the Florida New Starts
Transit Program.
It is our expectation that no federal funding will be utilized for the Project. We note that any decision
not to utilize federal funding for this Project,or comply with any conditions of such federal funding(such
as the Buy America Requirements)will not prohibit or impact any future decision to utilize federal
funding for any subsequent phase of the Beach Corridor Transit Connection Project. We also note that
the anti-segmentation language which applies to road projects seeking federal funding,does not apply
to transit projects-meaning that the implementation of this Project as the first phase of the Beach
Corridor Transit Connection Project will not otherwise impact future eligibility of subsequent phases of
the Beach Corridor Transit Connection Project.

1 TO THE USER FEES.LEASE PAYMENTS,AND OTHER SERVICE PAYMENTS OVER TIME
1 Fl. Structure of Service Payments
v
The P3 structure(design-build-finance-operate-maintain)will be governed by the Comprehensive
I Agreement to be entered into by the City of Miami Beach and the Project Company.
Among other things—the Comprehensive Agreement will detail the Project Company's obligations to
I the City of Miami Beach related to the financing,design,construction and operation of the Project
, during the term,criteria for measuring the Project:Company's performance of these obligations,and
recourse for the City of Miami Beach if these obligations are not met. In return,the City of Miami Beach
will be contractually obligated to make payments(i)to the extent funding is available,during the
1 construction period in the form of progress or milestone payments and(ii)annual service payments
g (also commonly referred to as availability payments)during the operating period which would be
t subject to adjustment based on specific performance and availability of the Project("Service
Payments").As the granting authority,the City of Miami Beach will retain control of fare setting.
Service Payments are periodic monthly payments made by the public sponsor to the private partner to
P
compensate the private partner for their original investment in the Project(described in Section El
P
I (Sources of private financing))and ongoing operating costs of the Project._In our proposed P3 structure,
1 the City of Miami Beach would begin making Service Payments to the Project Company once
is complete and continues to make such payments until the end of the term of the
construction s c p y
P
Comprehensive Agreement.As long as the Project Company performs to the contract standards,the 1
predetermined amounts of Service Payments are paid. The Service Payments are structured to
1 incorporate operations and maintenance costs, lifecycle costs,and capital requirements,which enables '=
both debt payments and equity distributions as the Project costs are funded on an ongoing basis. With
the exception of pass through costs of electricity,and other utility costs,the Service Payment is a fixed ,
) amount per month(subject to a fixed inflator and inflation adjustment) payable upon the •
commencement of operations.
The amount of the Service Payments paid to the private partner is subject to downward adjustment in
/ the event that the Project fails to achieve certain service levels or other performance targets,as agreed
between the City of Miami Beach and Greater Miami Tramlink Partners and set out in the
Comprehensive Agreement.
It is worth noting that under an availability P3(as is proposed here),there are no user fees or lease
payment made to or by the Project Company. During operations,the primary source of payment to the
Project Company(and the key payment obligation of the City of Miami Beach)will be annual Service
Payments. User fees are not applicable to this payment structure as all revenues derived from farebox
5 will be,owned by the City of Miami Beach,and the Project Company will take no"demand risk".
b Similarly,lease payments are not applicable—there will be no lease.between the City of Miami Beach
b and the Project Company and no leasehold interest. The City will own all the assets from the moment
they arrive on the site. The Comprehensive Agreement will provide a long-term (30-35 year)contractual
licence to the Project Company. It is this contractual right(and not a leasehold interest)that will entitle
b the Project Company to operate and maintain(and otherwise access and use)the Project(subject
I always to the terms of the Comprehensive Agreement.)

Miami Beach Streetcar Project 1 An unsolicted proposal
F2. Estimate of likely range of annual Service Payments
As described previously,the public funding sources for the Project could include Florida NSTP. While the
availability of these funds for the Project has not yet been confirmed,it is our expectation that these
funds will be used to finance a portion of the construction costs.
Our estimate of the likely annual Service Payment based on our estimate of the costs of delivering the
Project is set out in Attachment 1.
Three different cases are presented in Attachment 1 which vary only in respect of the amount of public
funding made available during the construction period:
• Case 1: no public funding during construction;
• Case 2: public funding during construction equivalent to 12.5%of the construction costs; and
• Case 3: public funding during construction equivalent to 50%of the construction costs.
These annual Service Payment costs represent an all-in cost—including all costs related to the design,
development,financing,construction,operations, maintenance and long-term life-cycling of the Project.
These costs include the costs of a maintenance yard(both capital expenditure and ongoing operating
costs of maintain such a yard).
In each of the 3 funding cases presented,we have structured the Project to achieve investment grade
rating(s)from the rating agencies to attract the most competitive financing terms available in the
market. To achieve this,we have assumed a minimum debt service coverage ratio which is comparable
to that achieved on other recent P3 transactions.
It is worth noting that the current estimate used by the City of Miami Beach as.presented to the City of
•
Miami Beach Commission in the Commission Memorandum dated April 29, 2015("Current City
Estimate") is not directly comparable to the estimates we have prepared and presented in Attachment 1
because, based on our understanding of the City's methodology and assumptions,the Current.City
Estimate:
• underestimates the costs of the maintenance facilities(complexity to cope with Miami Beach
local environment, linear proportion(28%)should not consider the MacArthur Causeway
Corridor section);
• does not take into account a sufficient number of streetcar vehicles for peak hour operations;
and
• the annual operating costs of$7M (28%of$22M)does not appear to take into account(i) long-
term rehabilitation of the system(but only includes regular, routine maintenance) (ii)ongoing
operating costs of a maintenance yard for the Project and (iii)the operating costs of the larger
fleet required for the Project to be feasible on its own.
It is also worth noting that,notwithstanding the above costs are excluded from the Current City
Estimate,a direct comparison between the Current City Estimate and the estimates in Attachment 1
must also take into account the value of the risk transfer that can be achieved through a P3 structure
versus a traditional procurement where risk of construction cost and time overruns and increases in long
term operations and maintenance costs would otherwise sit with the City of Miami Beach. In this case—
these risks would be assumed by the Project Company and are accounted for in the annual costs
estimated in Attachment 1.
---- -- — Page 34 -- --
•
Greater Miami Tramlink Partners
F3. Financial Model Assumptions
In performing the financial analysis on the Project(summarized above and in Attachment 1),we have
developed a detailed financial model that contains the following key assumptions:
• The construction price is subject to a fixed price contract(cost overruns are the risk of the
Project Company(which are passed down to the EPC Contractor)d not the.City of Miami Beach;
• Progress payments are assumed to be received from the City of Miami Beach during the
construction period consistent with construction spend (paid as progress payments
corresponding to the value of work progressed on a monthly basis);
• The operations and maintenance price is a fixed amount subject to CPI adjustment in each year
of operation
• Lifecycle costs are assumed to be incurred periodically during the operating period
• Service Payment escalation
o O&M and Lifecycle escalate at CPI
o 25%capital portion of the Service Payment escalates at CPI (note that the appropriate.
inflation adjustment to be determined—assumption for now is CPI)
� o
o 75%capital portion of the Service Payment escalates at 2.0%
• Sculpted debt repayment consistent with Service.Payment profile
• Cost assumptions exclude any fare collection system(both capex and opex costs)
• Farebox revenue is not included in these projections
• Excludes energy costs during testing,commissioning and operations of the Project
F4. Key payment terms to be included in the Comprehensive Agreement
Under the availability P3 structure contemplated,the payment obligations of the City of Miami Beach
will be limited to the following:
• To the extent public funding is available and secured by the City of Miami Beach, monthly
payments during the construction period in the form of progress or milestone payments. As set
out above,we have assumed such payments will be made as progress payments which
correspond with the value of work progressed on a monthly basis—the value of such payments
will be subject to the level of public funding secured by the City of Miami Beach and the timing,
amount and conditions of such payment will be clearly set out in Comprehensive Agreement. It
is our expectation(as is typical on P3 projects),that the total amount of the public contribution
during construction will be fixed and will not be subject to increase.
�
• Annual Service Payments made on a monthly basis which include all costs related to the design,
a development,financing,construction,operations, maintenance and long-term life-cycling of the
Project.The annual Service Payments will be subject to change only in very limited
circumstances as se_t out in the Comprehensive Agreement.

Miami Beach Streetcar Project An unsolicited proposal
ORAN LRT The Oran Light Rail Transit Project was the third Light Rail
Contract start date: 2008
transit line in Algeria and was implemented under an a Design-
Build contract awarded to a consortium composed of Corsan
Corviam (civil construction)and Alstom Transport(systems).
The Oran light rail system is an 11 mile double track line with
32 stations,two maintenance shops and yards,and a fleet of
30 vehicles.The line crosses the city's historic district and runs
- LIP at grade across 95 intersections with existing streets.The
- system design included future line extensions with three new
'1c — _ - lines totalling 18 route miles and an additional maintenance
i facility. As the leader of the Design-Build consortium,Alstom
' has the responsibility for the design,supply,installation,
testing,and commissioning of the traction power and
overhead catenary, signaling and communication systems,
yard and depot maintenance facilities,ticketing and fare
collection system,a fleet of 30 CitadistM 100%low floor light
rail vehicles.Alstom's scope also includes the overall project
management,the system engineering,the systems integration,
and the management of interfaces with the civil works.
Through its 49% participation in maintenance joint venture
company, CITAL,Alstom is responsible for maintaining the
fleet of vehicles over a period of 10 years and the rail
infrastructure over a period of 5 years(two separate contracts
held by CITAL). The project requirements changed significantly
after the notice to proceed.Alstom adapted quickly to
anticipate the customer's needs taking over preliminary design
activities such as route alignments optimization and utilities
relocation.The design of the line was very challenging with
regard to urban integration.The alignment needed to
accommodate the narrow streets of the 19th century historical
center,which required careful placement of catenary poles
and hardware,sub-station equipment,and design of aesthetic
and well integrated passenger stations respecting the
community's culture.To mitigate impact to businesses in the
old city center, EMA put in place a compensation package for
demonstrated business losses, particularly in two streets that
were long-established homes to many small businesses.The
project included an environmental protection program which
included the relocation of 100 of the most ancient trees in the
city.Also,the project included redevelopment of the city
center through the creation of new green areas and new tree
plantings.
The line has been in revenue operation since May 2013 and
has experienced continual passenger growth, now transporting
up to 50,000 passengers per day. It is designed for a ridership
in the future of up to 90,000 passengers per day.

requirements.
PANAMA METRO Li The Metro Line 1 of Panama City is the first stage in the
Contract start date:2010 implementation of an overall urban transit system which will

OTTAWA LRT City of Ottawa entered into a P3 agreement with Rideau
Contract start date: 2013 Transit Group General Partnership(RTG) (ACS 40%, SNC
Lavallin 40%and Ellisdon 20%)to design, build, and finance
• and maintain for a 30 year term,a new light rail system in
•
•
• Ottawa,Ontario. Alstom is a nominated subcontractor to the
. .• ••. Design Built Joint Venture (OLRT Constructors) for the vehicle
supply, and telecommunication and subcontractor of the
Maintenance Company(Rideau Transit Maintenance General
Partnership: RTM)for the maintenance of the LRT fleet.The
II 1 Confederation Line will be 8.2 miles dedicated light rail line
•
including a 2 mile tunnel 10 above-ground stations,three
underground stations, and one depot maintenance facility.The
fleet consists of 34 CitadisTM Spirit LRT train-sets operating in
multiple units of two vehicles,with each multiple unit having a
capacity of more than 600 passengers.The system has the
capability to carry 10,700 passengers per hour from inception
in 2018,and can grow to carry 18,000 passengers per hour by
2031.The modular LRVs are capable of being lengthened to
194 feet,to further increase ridership.The vehicles had to
attain a high level of Canadian content(30%),while also
containing service proven solutions. Alstom had to work with
its major suppliers,to ensure that their systems were localized
as much as possible,without any impact to quality, schedule or
performance. Key challenges include overcoming the
requirement to maintain vehicles,while the Maintenance
Facility is being used for assembly of any additional vehicles.
By careful design and specification of the Maintenance Facility,
Alstom has created the necessary space for this activity to
occur before major overhauls take place and will benefit of
such final assembly to train its maintenance workforce.
Another challenge is maintaining wheel life, as each train will
operate over 100,000 km per year. To counter this issue, care
was taken to ensure the track will be maintained
appropriately,that the most appropriate(double-headed,
adjustable)wheel lathe is installed and developing
maintenance practices that maximize the life of the wheels.
Alstom has responsibility to supply the 34 CitadisTM LRVs and
maintain them for 30 years. The vehicles will be assembled in
the Depot Maintenance Facility in Ottawa,which is being built
to meet Alstom's functional design requirements. As
maintainer,Alstom takes the responsibility to meet availability,
reliability and energy targets on a daily basis; while ensuring
that the condition of the LRV is maintained to a high condition
throughout the thirty years,taking into account system
overhaul and upgrades. At the end of the thirty years,Alstom
will hand back the vehicles,with a guarantee of 10 years
additional life. It will enter in revenue service in April 2014.

Walsh Investors is an investment and development organization owned by the Walsh family,owners of
The Walsh Group,which is a privately held company. Walsh Investors is an affiliate of The Walsh Group
and has played a major role in the US P3 market as both developer and an investor in the last several
years. Walsh Investors works hand-in-hand with its construction affiliates,including Archer Western,to
develop a wide variety of P3 transactions in the civil and social infrastructure industry across US and
Canada. As the North American P3 market has evolved,Walsh has invested significant resources in the
space, developing internal business lines dedicated to enhancing the company's long-term participation
in the growing industry. The company has leveraged its partners'vast construction experience in the
broader social and transportation infrastructure markets to become a major developer in the P3 market.
This is highlighted by the company's recent success on the Ohio River Bridges East End Crossing P3
Project,which won the prestigious 2013 Project Finance North American Deal of the Year Award as well
as the Partnerships Bulletin International 2014 Projects Grand Prix Award. Walsh Investors,vertically-
integrated along with its construction affiliate,
and with a self-perform maintenance structure
recently reached financial close on Pennsylvania
Rapid Bridge Replacement Project,the first P3
ever procured in the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania.
The Ohio River Bridges East End Crossing,the
_ -_ „-. first and only PPP project to date in the state of
�_. Indiana, includes the financing,design,
construction,and 35 years of operation and
maintenance for a 2,510 foot main span,twin
tower cable-stayed bridge across the Ohio River that will link Louisville, Kentucky to Southern Indiana.
The Project also includes a twin bore tunnel on the Kentucky approach of approximately 1,800 feet in
length and 19 additional bridges,as well as associated roadway improvements and other related
infrastructure work.
Member f h Project Co. responsible for all
Walsh Investors, L.L.C. (Walsh Investors) is a 33.3%Equity of the Project p
aspects of the project including t he self-performance o f operations
a n d
maintenance work.The Ohio
River Bridges East End Crossing was the first greenfield P3 in the Midwest.The project includes
numerous technical challenges, environmental considerations,and Project Co. installation(but not
operation)of new tolling system infrastructure. Walsh Construction is the managing member of the
0 design-build joint venture.
Walsh recently reached financial close with its partners on Pennsylvania's first P3 procurement,the
Rapid Bridge Replacement Project,participating as an equity investor, lead contractor,and as an
t operations and maintenance contractor. The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania,with 25,000 state-owned
bridges, has the third largest number of bridges and the largest number of bridges classified as
"structurally deficient" in the United States. The Pennsylvania Rapid Bridge Replacement Project(the
"Project")will accelerate the replacement of 558 geographically disbursed,structurally deficient, bridges
across the Commonwealth in approximately 3.5 years. The majority of the replacement bridges are

Miami Beach Streetcar Project An unsolicited proposal
rural single and multi-span bridges that will be replaced in-kind. The Project will help improve the
of the Commonwealth's transportation network,while minimizing the impacts on the
connectivity P
traveling public.The improved connectivity, including removal of weight restrictions on new bridges,will
increase the efficiency of freight and commercial movements which benefit the economy of the
Commonwealth.
In particular,Walsh Investors is participating in the development of the.Project as an equity investor in
the project Company("PWKP"). Walsh Construction Company,an Archer Western affiliate, is the
managing joint venture partner on the design-build portion of the Project,with a guaranteed price$899
million construction contract. Walsh Infrastructure Management is the operations and maintenance
contractor. Through the combination of these three roles,Walsh will serve as a long-term partner and
service provider in the project and to the Commonwealth. PWKP will be using a combination of public
funding,debt,and equity to finance the Project. Based on the current market conditions, it was
determined that a Private Activity Bonds("PABs")structure was the most competitive financing solution
for the Project. These PABs are tax-exempt,non-recourse bonds issued by the Commonwealth on
behalf of PWKP,the largest PABs issuance to date on any P3 projects in the US. PWKP reached
financial close in March 2015 and construction commenced in May 2015
