1. Staff recommends
motion to approve: Work Order 2018051-169 in the amount of
$513,000 to mill and resurface Lake Ida Road from Congress Avenue to Swinton
Avenue utilizing Palm Beach County’s (County) annual asphalt milling and
resurfacing contract R2018-1533 (Contract) with Ranger Construction Industries,
Inc. (Ranger). SUMMARY: Per
County PPM CW-F-050, this work order exceeds the $200,000 threshold for staff
approvals of work orders to annual contracts, thus requiring approval from the
Board of County Commissioners (BCC). Approval of this work order will allow the
contractual services necessary to construct the improvements. Prior to this
meeting date, approximately $42 million of Ranger’s $48.5 million Contract has
been spent or encumbered. On October 16, 2018, the BCC approved the Contract
with Ranger to provide milling and resurfacing of County roadways for
countywide projects. The Contract was renewed on October 22, 2019 with a 15%
mandatory Small Business Enterprise (SBE) goal set as the Affirmative
Procurement Initiative. Due to the limited availability of qualified certified
SBE subcontractors, the Office of Equal Business Opportunity issued a waiver on
January 17, 2020 that reduced the mandatory SBE participation to 5%. On June 2,
2020, the second renewal was approved, and continued with the reduced mandatory
SBE participation of 5%. Ranger agreed to 5% SBE participation for this work
order. Work orders approved on this meeting date will result in a cumulative
SBE participation of 8.6% for all the work orders issued under the Contract. This project is included in the
infrastructure sales tax. Districts 4 & 7 (YBH)

improvements after construction is complete. The Code of Federal Domestic
Assistance number for this agreement is 20.205 Highway Planning and
Construction. RSD was the lowest responsive bidder of four. The contract time

Construction Management, Inc. (R2018-1161) for the Phillip Lewis Center Phase 2

Contract Review Committee approved Work Order No. 14 to the continuing contract
with Lebolo Construction Management, Inc. (Lebolo) in the amount of $197,330
with a construction completion schedule of 90 days. The work consists of
construction management services to refurbish the interior of the existing
elevator cab, elevator hydraulic modernization, new electrical upgrades, and
the installation of a new heating ventilation and air conditioning system. The
existing elevator is original to the building, which is more than 20 years old.

improve the existing operational components of the elevator. This change order
authorizes an increase in the project duration by 326 calendar days to
accommodate Lebolo’s procurement of the elevator manufacturer contract, long

(NOFO) for Community Based Agency (CBA) funding for three years, beginning in

2021, the Board approved contracts with 12 of those agencies. Both Arc and Seagull Industries for the
Disabled, Inc. (Seagull), submitted proposals in response to the FY2022 NOFO
and were recommended for funding. YSD was subsequently informed by Seagull that
their programs and services would be merged with Arc, so this Contract was
delayed until the merger was completed.
The Stand Up & Youth Employment Programming provides a platform for
high-performing teens to connect and collaborate to build social and emotional
strength that will affect change within their communities, among their peers,
and in their personal lives. The programming provides youth with a safe
environment to develop leadership skills through peer-to-peer mentoring,
advocacy and inclusion. The program aims to serve 20 Parents/Caregivers, and
105 Youth (20 Youth Mentors and 85 Youth with Intellectual and Developmental
Disabilities). This contract includes a logic model and reporting measurements
specific to the Arc. After completion of each contract year, a report
will be generated detailing the Arc’s progress in meeting their performance
measurements. Countywide (HH)

11 existing streetlights to LED streetlights in the Seminole Manor Countywide
Community Revitalization Team (CCRT) area;
B) a budget transfer of $210,000 in the Capital Outlay Fund to
establish a transfer of $150,000 for the Seminole Manor Street Lighting project
to fund the installation of this project including necessary tree trimming and
conversion of 11 existing streetlights and a transfer of $60,000 to the OCR
Special Projects and Initiatives Fund for project maintenance; and

better pedestrian and vehicle safety. The project entails the installation
and 20 years maintenance of 38 LED streetlights and the conversion of 11
existing streetlights which were installed through Engineering’s Street
Lighting Program to LED streetlights. Converting the existing 11 cobra headlights
to LED lights will result in an estimated cost savings of $13,200 over a

from the San Castle and the Plantation Area CCRT areas and by the Home Owners
Association (HOA) and neighborhood residents from the Cannongate-Southwoods
CCRT area to address the need to slow down vehicular traffic and improve safety
along non-thoroughfare County roadways.
