If Consultant proceeds with any such additional work and/or services without obtaining the prior written consent of the Project Administrator, said work and/or services shall be deemed to be a Basic Service under this Agreement and shall also be deemed to be within the scope of services delineated in the Consultant Service Order (whether or not specifically addressed in the Scope of Services).

THE PARTICIPATION IN THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY OF CONSULTANTS OBLIGATIONS SHALL NOT PRECLUDE THE CITY FROM DECLARING CONSULTANT IN DEFAULT FOR CONSULTANT'S FAILURE TO PERFORM SUCH OBLIGATION, NOR SHALL IT LIMIT, IN ANY WAY, THE CITY'S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES IN CONNECTION THEREWITH. THE CONSULTANT EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES NOT TO RAISE OR ASSERT AS DEFENSE TO ANY CLAIM, ACTION, SUIT AND/OR OTHER PROCEEDING OF A SIMILAR NATURE, THE CITY'S PARTICIPATION, ASSISTANCE AND/OR FACILITATION IN THE PERFORMANCE OF CONSULTANT'S OBLIGATIONS. INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ASSISTING WITH OBTAINING PERMITS OR WITH COORDINATION WITH UTILITIES, OR OTHER MATTERS RELATED TO THE PROJECT. IN THE EVENT OF ANY CONFLICT BETWEEN THIS SECTION AND/OR ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR OTHER CONTRACT DOCUMENTS, THIS SECTION SHALL GOVERN. 2.18 GREEN BUILDING STANDARDS: The Consultant shall comply with the requirements of Section 255.2575, Florida Statutes, and Chapter 100 of the City Code, as both may be amended from time to time, addressing applicable Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) compliance requirements. 2.19 SUBCONSULTANTS: All services provided by Subconsultants shall be consistent with those commitments made by the Consultant in its Proposal and during the competitive solicitation selection process and interview.

Nothing contained in this Agreement shall create any contractual relationship between the City and the Subconsultants. The Consultant shall not retain, add, or replace any Subconsultant without the prior written approval of the City Manager, in response to a written request from the Consultant stating the reasons for any proposed substitution.

However, the City's failure to request such documentation or evidence and/or failure to enforce in any way the terms and provisions of this Section, the Agreement and/or any other Consultant Service Order during the Project does not excuse, waive and/or condone in any way any noncompliance of the requirements set forth therein including, without limitation, the professional licensure requirements. Any approval of a Subconsultant by the City shall in no way shift from the Consultant to City the responsibility for the quality and acceptability of the services performed by the Subconsultant. Payment of Subconsultants shall be the sole responsibility of the Consultant, and shall not be cause for any increase in compensation to the Consultant for payment of the Services. ARTICLE 3.

On April 28, 2017, the RFQ was issued. A voluntary pre-proposal conference to provide inforrretion to proposers submitting a response was held on May 9, 2017. RFQ responses were due and received on June 14, 2017.The City received a total of 17 proposals from the following firms: •AECOM Technical Services, Inc., •Alta Planning+ Design, Inc. •Atkins North America, Inc. • Calvin, Giordano&Associates, Inc. • Florida Transportation Engineering, Inc. • Gannett Fleming, Inc. • HNTB Corporation • H.W.

The Evaluation Cortnittee convened on August 7, 2017, to consider proposals received.The Cormittee was comprised of Josiel Ferrer, Transportation Manager, Transportation Department, City of Miani Beach; Rogelic Madan, Chief of Connunity Planning & Sustainability, Planning and Zoning Department, City of Miami Beach; Lynda Westin, Transportation Manager, Transportation Department, City of Miami Beach; and Collin Worth, Bicycle Coordinator/Transportation Analyst, Office of Transportaton Management, City of Miami.

CONCLUSION The Miarri Beach Transportation Master Plan, adopted in April of 2016, identified 102 potential projects in the next few years. The City Cormission has directed Transportation staff to implement the Transportation Master Plan as quickly as possible. Each of the 102 projects identified in the plan will need an initial feasibility study followed by design development. This work is primarily done by the Transportation General Planning Consultants (GPCs). Additionally, other project needs arise from time to time. As such, staff has expressed a need for a robust pool of consultants to be able to expeditiously address project needs. The current pool of Transportation GPCs consists of only four (4) firms. More than four GPC firms are needed to move projects forward quickly into project implementation, as the existing fins are at capacity with the various ongoing projects or studies, either with the City or elsewhere. For these reasons, the Transportation Department is recommending selection of the top eight (8) firms as ranked by the selection committee. After considering staffs recommendation and the results of the Evaluation Committee process, I recorrrrend the selection of the top eight(8)firms as ranked by the selection committee. Doubling the number of fimrs will enable the Transportation Department to address project needs more expeditiously and begin project implementation sooner.The recommended pool of eight (8) fins contains each individual Evaluation Committee member's top four (4) highest ranked firms Selecting a pool larger than eight (8) firms may be too large for the anticipated work load. Additionally, several of the firms that are not in the pool of the eight (8) recommended firms are currently available either through the Miami Beach Architectural and Engineering (ME) list or may be contracted, if needed, as sub-consultants to the eight(8) GPC firrs being recommended. Therefore, after reviewing all the submissions, results of the evaluation process, and the anticipated irrplerrentation of the Miani Beach Transportation Master Plan projects, I recormend that the Mayor and City Commission approve the resolution authoriang the Administration to establish a continuing pool of pre-qualified consultants for general transportation planning and traffic engineering services, pursuant to Section 287.055, Florida Statutes, from the following finis qualified to perform the work HNTB corporation, as the first ranked proposer Nelson/Nygaard Consulting Associates, Inc., as the second ranked proposer; H.W. Lochner, Inc., as the third ranked proposer, Gannett Fleming. Inc., as the fourth ranked proposer, Calvin, Giordano&Associates, Inc., as the fifth ranked proposer; Kittelson &Associates, Inc.,as the sixth ranked proposer; Marlin Engineering, Inc., as the seventh ranked proposer, Ma Planning + Design, Inc, as the eighth ranked proposer. Further, I recommend that the Mayor and City Clerk be authorized to execute agreements, upon conclusion of successful negotiations by the Adrrinistration,with the pre-qualified firms. KEY INTENDED OUTCOMES SUPPORTED Page 202 of 1633 Ensure Comprehensive Mobility Addressing All Modes Throughout The City FINANCIAL INFORMATION The cost of the related services, detemined upon successful negotiations, are subject to funds availability approved through the City's budgeting process.

Consultant shall also require Subconsultants to comply with this subsection. 2.15 The City and Consultant acknowledge that the Services, as described in the Agreement and the Consultant Service Order, do not delineate every detail and minor work task required to be performed by Consultant to complete the work and/or services described and delineated under a Consultant Service Order issued to Consultant by the City for a particular Project.

Mere notice by Consultant to the Project Administrator shall not constitute authorization or approval by the City to perform such work. Performance of any such work and/or services by Consultant without the prior written consent of the Project Administrator shall be undertaken at Consultant's sole risk and liability. 2.16 Consultant shall establish, maintain, and categorize any and all Project documents and records pertinent to the Services and shall provide the City, upon request, with copies of any and all such documents and/or records.

THE PARTICIPATION IN THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY OF CONSULTANT'S OBLIGATIONS SHALL NOT PRECLUDE THE CITY FROM DECLARING CONSULTANT IN DEFAULT FOR CONSULTANTS FAILURE TO PERFORM SUCH OBLIGATION, NOR SHALL IT LIMIT, IN ANY WAY, THE CITY'S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES IN CONNECTION THEREWITH. THE CONSULTANT EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES NOT TO RAISE OR ASSERT AS DEFENSE TO ANY CLAIM, ACTION, SUIT AND/OR OTHER PROCEEDING OF A SIMILAR NATURE, THE CITY'S PARTICIPATION, ASSISTANCE AND/OR FACILITATION IN THE PERFORMANCE OF CONSULTANT'S OBLIGATIONS.

However, the City's failure to request such documentation or evidence and/or failure to enforce in any way the terms and provisions of this Section, the Agreement and/or any other Consultant Service Order during the Project does not excuse, waive and/or condone in any way any noncompliance of the requirements set forth therein including, without limitation, the professional licensure requirements. Any approval of a Subconsultant by the City shall in no way shift from the Consultant to City the responsibility for the quality and acceptability of the services performed by the Subconsultant. Payment of Subconsultants shall be the sole responsibility of the Consultant, and shall not be cause for any increase in compensation to the Consultant for payment of the Services. ARTICLE 3.

His sustainable and smart growth-based project expertise includes planning future transit stations,shifting densities from the core areas to the neighborhoods,and linking the transit hubs with green spaces to promote a fully walkable and livable community.In addition to College Park, he has also helped to vision and facilitate sustainable policy development in Manatee,Martin, and Sarasota Counties in Florida, South Downtown Orlando, Florida,and St. Albert in Alberta,Canada. Community Engagement and Education. John Paul is often invited to facilitate and develop programs for engaging the public as well as other community members, public officials and staff,and industry professionals for the purposes of reaching informed consensus on planning and designing activities. He has led community engagement efforts including in Eustis, Florida where he helped conduct multiple public engagement meetings aimed toward a citizen-driven master planning study for the city's downtown and surrounding areas. His other notable project experience in Florida includes"Downtown by Design"in downtown Bradenton, and the Howell Complete Streets Master Plan. Downtown Placemaking+ Livable Transportation. John Paul has been involved in a number of projects that apply principles of context sensitive solutions,including historic downtown area plans,in the name of preserving the core values of a given downtown. In many cases,these projects were successful because of the integration of land-use planning and transportation design. His past project experience has resulted in a methodology that leads to developing recommendations that support community goals,cater to the access and mobility needs of all users, and are financially and economically sound. He served as the senior urban designer for a citywide redevelopment effort to reshape downtown Orlando. Florida. The multi-million dollar Community Venues Master Plan led to the following built projects, all conceptualized and designed in the original master plan:Church Street Streetscape,Amway Events Center Landscape and Streetscape, Bob Snow Plaza (under Interstate 4),the Downtown Performing Arts Center,and the Creative Village master planning effort. John Paul also has extensive experience in working with PF(fax-increment financing) districts and CRAs in developing actionable integrated land use and transportation plans.CRA master plan projects that he has led or served as senior designer include:public/private waterfront developments in St. Pete Beach,Tampa,and St. Petersburg, Florida,as well as a number of sites outside of the State,including Benton Harbor, Michigan; Knoxville,Tennessee:Columbus, Ohio;Cape Girardeau,Missouri: Detroit,Michigan:and New York, New York. Placemaking. Parks and Open Space Planning . Conceptual Design. Being able to bridge several scales at once allows John Paul to work simultaneously on larger planning projects while also keeping an eye on the implementation and feasibility of projects that come out of this planning process.At Florida Southern College,he was the lead landscape architect for the park and open space master plan for the campus that sought to unite several disjointed spaces on campus.Over the course of seven years,the master plan was implemented through several smaller garden, a quadrangle,building landscapes, and streetscape projects.As a result, Florida Southern College was ranked #1 "Most Beautiful Campus" by the Princeton Review in 2010-12 after never before breaking the top fifteen. Other landscape architecture and planning projects include University of Central Florida (multiple projects); Lake Concord Waterfront (Casselberry, FL); and the Connecticut River Water Treatment Facility (New Haven.CT)which won the National ASLA Award of Honor in 2010.
