Summary: A notice of grant award was received on February 6, 2015, from the U.S Health and Human Services Health Resources Services Administration (HRSA), issuing a partial award in the amount of $5,975,290 in Formula, Supplemental and Minority AIDS Initiative (MAI) funding. An additional grant award will be issued at a later date. A Ryan White Request for Proposals (RFP) was released in August 2014 for services commencing on March 1, 2015. After release of the RFP, additional information related to federal requirements for the Local Drug Reimbursement Program was received. As a result, this part of the RFP was rescinded. The prior provider of this service, the Health Care District of Palm Beach County, did not apply for funds under the RFP. Due to the rescinding of this service from the RFP, it is necessary to enter into an emergency contract with the Health Care District of Palm Beach County to ensure continued availability of medications for Ryan White clients. A new RFP for the Local Drug Reimbursement Program will be released in August 2015 for services for the period March 1, 2016 to February 28, 2018. The contract will be amended and the budget will be aligned once the final notice of award has been received. This contract covers services for HIV affected clients for the local drug reimbursement program, which includes HIV medications and nutritional supplements. No County funds are required.

H. FACILITIES DEVELOPMENT & OPERATIONS

1. Staff recommends motion to approve:

A) Contract with Leo A. Daly Company in the amount of $1,055,300 for professional architectural and engineering design, permitting, and construction administration services for the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office (PBSO) Evidence/Impound Facility; and

B) Contract with James B. Pirtle Construction Company, Inc. d/b/a Pirtle Construction Company in the amount of $107,507 for pre-construction services for the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office (PBSO) Evidence/Impound Facility project.

SUMMARY: The Leo A. Daly Company contract provides for the design, permitting and construction administration services for the PBSO Evidence/Impound Facility to be located on a 16 acre site near Congress Avenue and Gun Club Road in West Palm Beach. The Pirtle Construction Company construction management service contract only authorizes pre-construction services. Once the construction documents are completed, the construction manager will bid the work and provide a guaranteed maximum price (GMP) to the County. The need for this project was originally established in 2006 and again recognized in 2008 when funding for the preconstruction services was included in the Criminal Justice and Public Improvement Revenue Bond, Series 2008. This project was later suspended in 2010 due to budgetary challenges. Since 2008 PBSO has accomplished many achievements in Evidence Management which will not only result in operational benefits to PBSO, but reduce the size of the facility required. The facility consists of secure office, warehouse, and processing area as well as a 600 vehicle impound lot. Construction cost is estimated at $18,000,000. It is anticipated that construction will be proposed for the FY 2017 capital budget with funding from a bond issue or other general revenue source. Leo A. Daly Company is a Palm Beach County firm and will provide Small Business Enterprise (SBE) participation of 29%. Pirtle Construction Company is a Broward County firm with a Palm Beach County office and will provide 4.9% SBE participation during the pre-construction phase. The 15% SBE goal will be achieved during the construction phase of the project. (Capital Improvements Division) District 2 (MRE)

I. ECONOMIC SUSTAINABILITY

Summary: The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires housing authorities to submit a Five Year Plan and an Annual Plan along with an annual certification of their consistency with the Consolidated Plan of the local jurisdiction. PBCHA has provided an Agency Plan Summary of its Five Year Plan for Fiscal Years 2016-2020 and its Annual Plan for Fiscal Year 2016 to the Department of Economic Sustainability (DES) for review and DES has determined that it is consistent with the Palm Beach County Consolidated Plan. In its review, DES determined that the goals are consistent with the overall goals and specific housing objectives outlined in the County’s Consolidated Plan including increasing the supply of affordable housing, improving the quality of existing affordable rental housing, improving access to affordable rental housing and establishing partnerships to address the needs of the County's homeless population. Since the PBCHA Agency Plan Summary is consistent with the County’s Consolidated Plan, staff recommends approval of this certification. (Strategic Planning) Countywide (JB)

Summary: On March 10, 2015, the Board approved a 48.42 acre Deed of Conservation Easement for John Prince Memorial Park. One of the legal descriptions of the conservation areas has been revised to adjust the perimeter limits of the easement area. The overall easement area is being reduced by .59 acres to 47.83 acres. A Deed of Conservation Easement in favor of SFWMD is required in order to satisfy a condition of SFWMD Permit No. 50-02844-S issued in July 2009, for improvements at Burt Aaronson South County Regional Park’s ski lake. The .59 acre reduction of land from the conservation easement area is not required to satisfy the total acreage requirement for the SFWMD permit. The Deed of Conservation Easement approved on March 10, 2015, has not been recorded. This Deed of Conservation Easement with the revised legal description will replace the March 10, 2015, version and will be recorded into the public records to satisfy the SFWMD permit condition. This Easement will ensure that the 47.83 acre wetland mitigation area created in John Prince Memorial Park will remain in a natural state and will be maintained by the County in perpetuity. The Conservation Easement allows passive recreation including boardwalks, mulched trails and observation platforms, and is consistent with the long range development plan for John Prince Memorial Park. The Conservation Easement is being granted to SFWMD at no cost as a condition of compliance with the environmental permit. District 3 (AH)

Staff recommends motion to receive and file: Termination of Contract letter regarding Interlocal Agreement R2015-0338 with the Village of Golf (Village) for connection to Palm Beach County (County) Regional Network. SUMMARY: Per Interlocal Agreement R2015-0338 established in March 2015, the Village intended to connect three buildings and their security system to the Palm Beach County Network in order to utilize County Internet services via the Florida LambdaRail. This agreement would have generated $10,680 in annual revenues to the County.

CC. TOURIST DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL

1. Staff recommends motion to approve: Payment to StageRight Corporation in the amount of $598,302 via the emergency purchase process for elevated riser seating to be incorporated into the exhibit hall seating offering at the Palm Beach County Convention Center. SUMMARY: In anticipation of a major sporting event at the Palm Beach County Convention Center (Convention Center), Global Spectrum, L.P (Global) operator of the Palm Beach County Convention Center sought to secure through a formal RFP process elevated riser seating. The Sports Commission of Palm Beach County had secured a spectator event for the Convention Center in June 2015. The risers were received at the Convention Center on June 1^st and were first used on June 13^th, 14th and 15^th for the Sports Commission’s Florida Sunshine State Games generating 1,200 hotel room nights from this event. Although Global conducted an RFP process for the purchase of these risers, staff supports the purchase as an emergency since the purchase process was expedited in order to accommodate the major sporting event at the Convention Center and avoid renting the risers for the four day event. There is a proven demand from room night oriented business from sporting events in our community. The Palm Beach County Convention Center lacked the riser seating requirement to elevate the viewing audience that is normally supplied by the host Sports Commission for most regional, national and international events. The Tourist Development Council Board approved the purchase of risers. (TDC) Countywide (DW)

Countywide (DW)

2. REVISED TITLE & SUMMARY: Staff requests Board direction: concerning a request by Related Companies, L.P. (Developer) regarding proposed parking modifications for the Convention Center Hotel. If the Board supports the Developer’s request, staff recommends a motion to approve:

A) the Third Amendment to the Development Agreement;

B) the Third Amendment to the Hotel Lease; and

C) Easement Agreement for Parking Spaces – B Deck Garage (Garage Easement). Such approval should be contingent upon receipt of an access easement to the garage in favor of Hotel and County (Access Easement), ~~and~~ a legal opinion in favor of the County certifying the validity and enforceability of the Garage Easement and Access Easement, and receipt of Consents to the Third Amendments from the Lenders.

Summary: On October 30, 2012, the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approved Agreements to facilitate the construction and operation of the Convention Center Hotel. The project documents contemplate a 630 space one story garage on a parcel of land (garage land) east of the hotel site on Florida Avenue. In lieu of the parking garage, the Developer desires to instead construct ~~300~~ 255 valet spaces on the garage land and utilize ~~330~~ 375 valet spaces in an existing parking structure in CityPlace, which is owned by the West Palm Beach Community Development District. The Developer has initiated this request for the following reasons: (1) they have invested $10 Million more than anticipated for the hotel; (2) the elimination of the parking structure would save $5 Million resulting in earlier rental payments to the County; (3) they believe the parking demands are overestimated; and (4) they are optimistic about the operating performance of the hotel and that not constructing the garage would allow for the consideration of constructing future hotel rooms. Staff is primarily concerned for the following reasons: (1) the parking garage is a requirement of the Development Agreement; (2) the parking demand on the hotel are greater than they project; and (3) that traffic impacts from the hotel valet operation across Okeechobee Boulevard to CityPlace will worsen an already poor traffic pattern during peak periods. The Developer is currently exceeding the local workforce goals of 40% skilled and 60% unskilled laborers, with 69% and 82% respectively. District 7 (HF)

2. Staff recommends motion to approve on preliminary reading and advertise for public hearing on July 21, 2015 at 9:30 a.m.: an Ordinance of the Board of County Commissioners of Palm Beach County, Florida, pertaining to posting of human trafficking public awareness signs; providing for definitions; providing for general requirements; providing for enforcement; providing for severability; providing for repeal of laws in conflict; providing for inclusion in the code of laws and ordinances; providing for captions; providing for applicability; and providing for an effective date. SUMMARY: The Board of County Commissioners, at its May 15, 2015 meeting, directed staff to prepare an ordinance pertaining to human trafficking upon passage of a state law pertaining to this subject. The new law (2015-172), signed by the Governor on June 16, 2015, authorizes counties to enforce posting of human trafficking public awareness signs at adult entertainment and massage/bodywork establishments alerting employees and patrons to remedies and protections related to human trafficking. The law and provisions of this Ordinance are to become effective January 1, 2016. Countywide (JB)

3. ADD-ON: Staff recommends motion to adopt: a Resolution of the Board of County Commissioners of Palm Beach County, Florida, urging the National Football Foundation Honors Committee to induct Coach Howard Schnellenberger into the College Football Hall of Fame. SUMMARY: Coach Howard Schnellenberger, a Palm Beach County resident, is a retired football coach with long service at both the professional and college levels. The Hall of Fame requires coaching nominees to retire with at least a .600 win percentage, but provides for induction in unique cases where coaches retire with less, such as Coach Schnellenberger’s .520 win percentage. What he did for the sport, however, far transcends such simple figures. Coach Howard Schnellenberger deserves every consideration to be in the College Football Hall of Fame. District 4 (DO)

D. WATER UTILITIES

1. REVISED SUMMARY: Staff recommends motion to approve: a Settlement Agreement with CDM Smith, Inc., settling claims brought by the County regarding alleged design and engineering deficiencies at the Lake Region Water Treatment Plant and Wellfield. Summary: On June 21, 2011, the Board of County Commissioners (Board) approved a budget transfer of $6.9 Million for emergency repairs/improvements to the existing 10 MGD Lake Region Water Treatment Plant, which serves Belle Glade, Pahokee and South Bay, contingent upon the Glades Utility Authority assignment of potential claims to the County upon absorption. The repairs/improvements were intended to address a decline in raw water quality from the existing seven Floridan Aquifer brackish water supply wells, operational difficulties, and equipment failures. All of the funding has been expended and has resulted in improved well and plant performance. The repairs/improvements include the construction of three additional supply wells and pumps, replacement of seven of the existing well pumps, and installation of energy recovery devices on the existing four treatment trains.

In addition to repairs and improvements, the County investigated the potential causes for the water quality degradation and operational difficulties experienced at the Lake Region Water Treatment Plant. The County has identified what it believes to be violations of the engineering standard of care owed by CDM Smith Inc., formerly Camp Dresser McKee, Inc., the engineering firm retained through three (3) Consultant Services Authorizations (R-2002-0570, R-2002-0574 and R-2005-0774) to provide engineering services for the design and construction of the plant and supporting facilities. The County’s position is that CDM Smith Inc.’s violations of the standard of care contributed to the operational problems experienced at the Lake Region Water Treatment Plant and Wellfield. The parties engaged in pre-suit mediation and exchanged documentation to address the County’s concerns. Due to the significant volume of technical material to be evaluated, the due diligence and pre-suit mediation took significantly longer than anticipated. The proposed settlement agreement calls for a one-time payment of $700,000 by CDM Smith, Inc., to the County, in exchange for a release of all claims that have been or could have been raised relating to the Lake Region Water Treatment Plant project.

2. Staff recommends motion to approve: a credit in the amount of $124,753.58 towards outstanding Connection Fees and Guaranteed Revenues on water and wastewater connections for the Bridges and Hyder Planned Unit Developments (PUD) as a reimbursement for over reserving capacity with the Palm Beach County Water Utilities Department (PBCWUD). SUMMARY: An affiliated entity of GL Homes (Developer) currently has six Standard Development Agreements (SDAs), including three Standard Assignments, with PBCWUD that reserve all necessary water and wastewater capacity for adjacent contiguions developments in the unincorporated area in Southern Palm Beach County consisting of the Hyder, Appolonia and Dubois Planned Unit Developments. On July 25, 2013, the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approved Development Order Amendments that amended the three PUDs into two, essentially abandoning the Appolonia PUD. The reservation of capacity under each SDA is now inconsistent with the overall project master plan. Since these properties are adjacent to one another, PBCWUD recommends that the BCC grant an exception to PBCWUD's Uniform Policies and Procedures Manual (UPAP) to allow capacity to be transferred between agreements. Since the Developer has paid to reserve the necessary capacity under each SDA, a credit will be administered to the Developer in the amount of $124,753.58 towards future Connection Fees and Guaranteed Revenues on water and wastewater connections.
