2. Staff recommends motion to:

A) approve three (3) Milling & Resurfacing Continuing Services Construction Contracts in an overall amount for all three (3) contracts combined not to exceed $70,000,000 and be in effect for 18 months from the date of approval by the Board of County Commissioners (BCC), with an option to renew for a total of 36 months with:

1. M&M Asphalt Maintenance Inc. (MMA), d/b/a All County Paving;

2. Halley Engineering Contractors, Inc. (HEC); and

3. Ranger Construction Industries, Inc. (RCI); and

B) adopt a Resolution delegating signatory authority to the County Administrator or designee to approve certain amendments to these contracts.

SUMMARY: The cumulative allocation available for the three contracts together is $70,000,000, which is based upon the estimated amount to be expended for milling and resurfacing projects throughout Palm Beach County (County) within the next 36 months. The contracts will be in effect for 18 months from the date of approval by the BCC with an option to renew for a total of 36 months. The previous contract with a cumulative maximum total of $50,000,000 expires on August 16, 2024. Approval of these contracts is necessary for the continuation of services. The amount is being increased to $70,000,000 due to higher construction costs and to resurface more lane miles. The delegation of signatory authority will allow, among other things, the County Administrator or designee to approve amendments to renew the contracts to a total of 36 months contract time, on behalf of the BCC after approval of legal sufficiency by the County Attorney’s Office. On December 6, 2023, the Goal Setting Committee applied an Affirmative Procurement Initiative of 10% minimum mandatory Small Business Enterprise (SBE) participation.

SUMMARY: Approval of this contract will provide the professional engineering services necessary for the preparation of design plans and construction bid documents to widen Center Street to three (3) lanes. On May 4, 2022, the Goal Setting Committee applied Affirmative Procurement Initiatives (API) of a 20% minimum mandatory Small Business Enterprise (SBE) participation of which 5% must be Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) participation for African American owned firms, and an MBE evaluation preference for African American owned firms. On May 30, 2023, the Consultant’s Competitive Negotiations Act Selection Committee selected American Consulting Engineers of Florida, LLC (ACE) and, in accordance with PPM No. CW-O-048, the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) was notified of the selection on June 6, 2023. On August 1, 2023, Consor acquired ACE in an asset sale. This change in ownership caused a significant delay in the preparation of this contract. On January 1, 2024, Consor merged ACE into Consor as the surviving entity. On June 4, 2024, the BCC approved the Assignment Assumption and Consent Agreement to transfer current ACE contracts that were previously approved by the BCC to Consor.

SUMMARY: The HIVCC shall establish priorities for the allocation of funds within PBC; and develop a comprehensive plan for the organization and delivery of health services described in 42 U.S.C. that is compatible with any existing state or local plan regarding the provision of health services to individuals with HIV disease. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) requires Palm Beach County to maintain a planning council tasked with establishing priorities and allocations for the Ryan White (RW) HIV/AIDS Program grant funding. The HIVCC is that Council. Federal law requires that the planning council composition reflect the demographics of the population of individuals with HIV/AIDS in the eligible area, and at least 33% of planning council members be consumers of RW services who are unaffiliated with subrecipient service providers. The law further requires that members of the planning council represent designated categories including: health care providers; social service providers; community-based organizations; local public health agencies; non-elected community leaders; and grantees of Federal HIV programs. Per Resolution No. 2011-1560, the total membership for the HIV CC shall be no more than 33 at-large members. The HIVCC recommends the appointments of Dr. Jyothi Gunta and Mr. Christian Johnston. Both appointees are employed by Florida Department of Health (FDOH). This agency contracts with the County for services; however, HIVCC provides no regulation, oversight, management, or policy setting recommendations regarding the contracts or transactions with FDOH. Disclosure of this contractual relationship at a duly noticed public meeting will be provided in accordance with the provisions of Section 2-443 of the Palm Beach County Code of Ethics. The diversity count for the 23 seats that are currently filled is African-American: 9 (39%), Caucasian: 6 (26%), Hispanic-American: 7 (30%) and Asian-American: 1 (5%). The gender ratio (male: female) is 9:14. Dr. Gunta is Asian and Mr. Johnston is Caucasian.

3. Staff recommends motion to approve: Retroactive Interlocal Agreement with Florida Atlantic University Board of Trustees (FAU), for the FY 2024 period October 1, 2023 through September 30, 2024, in an amount of $63,000, under the Department of Justice (DOJ) Comprehensive Opioid, Stimulants, and Substance Use Program (COSSUP) Demonstration Program, for evaluation research services to Palm Beach County residents with substance use disorders. SUMMARY: The DOJ approved a project for a COSSUP Demonstration Program Award #2019-AR-BX-K023 with Palm Beach County Community Services Department (CSD) to provide COSSUP funding to FAU to research housing stability for individuals involved with the criminal justice system and who pose a high risk of overdose. Delays in the execution of the Southeast Florida Behavioral Health Network, Inc. (SEFBHN) Agreement #R2024-0538, approved by the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) on May 14, 2024, resulted in the retroactive dates as the agreement is contingent on the SEFBHN Agreement. This Interlocal Agreement with FAU is necessary to conduct ongoing and follow up research with past program participants served via the SEFBHN COSSUP Demonstration Program Sub-recipient Agreements (R2021-0301 and R2024-0538). Additionally, FAU’s research team will utilize qualitative and quantitative evidence from COSSUP to inform best practices related to Recovery Community Organizations/Recovery Community Centers (RCO/RCC). On May 2, 2023, the BCC approved an expansion from two (2) RCO/RCCs to four (4), located strategically where the needs are the greatest across Palm Beach County. The FAU research team will examine long-term recovery outcomes by evaluating participant’s outcomes based on levels of engagement with RCO/RCCs and assess the efficacy of educational programs, differences in geographical locations and quality of services at each of the RCO/RCCs and how these factors impact and affect long-term recovery.

13. Staff recommends motion to approve: a First Amendment to Agricultural Land Management Interlocal Agreement (First Amendment) with Palm Beach Soil and Water Conservation District (PBSWCD), a public corporation of the State of Florida, for the management of County-owned property within the Agricultural Reserve, to retroactively extend the term of the Agreement from July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2027 and increase the annual management fee by 9% to $67,470. Summary: Since July 2000, PBSWCD has managed the County’s agricultural lands under several Agricultural Land Management Interlocal Agreements. On May 18, 2021, the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approved the current Agricultural Land Management Interlocal Agreement (R2021-0701) (Agreement) with an initial term of three (3) years expiring on June 30, 2024, plus one (1) three (3) year renewal option at an annual management fee of $61,899. The Agreement also provides for an increase of the annual management fee by five percent (5%) upon exercise of the renewal option which would equate to an annual management fee of $64,994. PBSWCD desires to exercise their option to extend and has requested the annual management fee be increased to nine percent (9%), due to increases in its annual expenses, specifically insurance costs. This First Amendment retroactively extends the term for a period of three (3) years commencing July 1, 2024 and expiring on June 30, 2027, and increases the annual management fee by nine percent (9%) which equates to $67,470 per year for the extension term. All other terms of the Agreement remain unchanged. Staff is requesting a retroactive approval as a properly executed First Amendment was not timely received.

1. Staff recommends motion to execute: a “Certification By State or Local Official of PHA Plans Consistency with the Consolidated Plan or State Consolidated Plan” for the Palm Beach County Housing Authority (PBCHA) in connection with its Annual Plan for Fiscal Year 2024-2025. SUMMARY: The PBCHA has prepared its Annual Plan for Fiscal Year 2024-2025 for submission to the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). HUD requires the County to confirm that the plans and programs outlined in the Annual Plan are consistent with the goals and objectives set forth in the County’s Consolidated Plan. Consistency with the Consolidated Plan is documented through a “Certification by State or Local Official of PHA Plans Consistency with the Consolidated Plan or State Consolidated Plan.” The Department of Housing and Economic Development (HED) has reviewed the PBCHA Annual PHA Plan and determined that the goals, objectives, and activities outlined therein are consistent with the Palm Beach County Consolidated Plan for Fiscal Years 2020-2024. Some specific goals outlined in the PBCHA’s Plan which are consistent with the goals set forth in the County’s Consolidated Plan are to target assistance to households with incomes of no more than 50% of Area Median Income, as well as the elderly and families with disabilities. The Plan also calls for activities that will affirmatively further fair housing, increase the number of affordable housing units and de-concentrate public housing. Countywide (HJF)

B) approve a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between the Florida State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO), Palm Beach County, and the BRHA; and

C) delegate signatory authority to the County Administrator or designee to execute RROF, the MOA, and any other documents necessary for the environmental review that do not substantially change the RROF, MOA, or terms or conditions thereof.

SUMMARY: The BRHA is redeveloping the Dixie Manor public housing complex located at 1350 N. Dixie Highway, Boca Raton. The existing 95-unit complex will be demolished and replaced with a newly-constructed 95-unit affordable rental development to be known as Residences at Martin Manor. Because the BRHA receives funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), it is required to conduct an environmental review in accordance with Federal regulations at 24 CFR Part 58. BRHA requested that Palm Beach County assume the role of Responsible Entity to undertake the environmental review on its behalf. The environmental review has been completed and the County must now provide to HUD a RROF for the project. The RROF affirms that procedures required by 24 CFR Part 58 have been followed, that the activity did not require an Environmental Impact Statement, and that the County will comply with the National Environmental Policy Act and other environmental laws as they relate to the project. As part of the environmental review, the SHPO determined that the demolition of structures at the Dixie Manor site would have an adverse effect on the Pearl City Historic District. Consequently, a MOA is required between SHPO, the County, and BRHA to delineate measures which BRHA will implement to mitigate adverse impacts on historical resources. The required Notice of Intent to Request Release of Funds was published on June 1, 2024 and no public comments were received during a 15-day comment period. Delegation of signatory authority to the County Administrator, or designee, will allow the environmental review to proceed in a timely manner. District 4 (HJF)

B) a Memorandum of Agreement from PF. OAKS LLC, a Florida Limited Liability Company to be recorded in the public records to provide notice of this Agreement.

Summary: On November 2, 2021, the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approved a Fiscal Strategy for the spending of American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds, which included an allocation of $4,000,000 for the acquisition of environmentally sensitive lands. The parcel owned by OAKS, is an interior parcel located in an area known as Palm Beach Heights (part of the Pal-Mar Ecosite). The Pal-Mar Ecosite is part of a large ecological greenway that stretches from just west of the Atlantic Ocean to just east of Lake Okeechobee. The area provides habitat for a wide variety of native plants and animals and it is part of a hydrologically significant region that includes the headwaters of the federally designated Wild and Scenic Northwest Fork of the Loxahatchee River. Hence its value as environmentally sensitive land. Appraisals were obtained from Anderson & Carr, Inc. and M.R. Ford & Associates, Inc. who assigned a $15,000 and $16,000 per acre value for interior Palm Beach Heights parcels, respectively. Callaway & Price, Inc. reviewed the appraisals and concluded a reasonable aggregate value of $15,500 per acre for interior Palm Beach Heights parcels, which is the basis of the offer. The Agreement allows for the County’s due diligence review of the parcel within 45 days of BCC approval. The County will pay title insurance policy premium, closing and recording costs estimated to be $745 for the OAKS parcel. The Environmental Resources and Management (ERM) Department will perform pre-acquisition environmental assessments for the parcel prior to closing. A boundary survey will not be obtained for the parcel due to the remote location. ERM will be responsible for the administration of the parcel. All costs related to the acquisition will be paid from existing funds received from the ARPA Response Replacement Fund. These are County ARPA Response Replacement funds that do not require a local match. This acquisition must be approved by a supermajority vote (5 Commissioners).

A) a contract with Griffin & Strong, P.C. to assess whether there is continued disparity in the utilization of Minority and Women Owned Business Enterprises (M/WBE) in contracting in the areas of construction, Consultants’ Competitive Negotiation Act (CCNA) professional services, non-CCNA professional services, and goods and services contracts with Palm Beach County for an amount not to exceed $425,531; and

B) Budget Transfer of $425,531 in the general fund from contingency reserves.

Summary: On November 21, 2023, the Board of County Commissioners approved and amended the Equal Business Opportunity ordinance to include the modification of the sunset date to December 31, 2025 to allow time to solicit, complete and consider the findings of an updated disparity study and fairly monitor and track an uninterrupted period of two years for overall county spend that was altered due to COVID-19 when emergency purchases were not subject to the Equal Business Opportunity (EBO) program. A Request for Proposals (RFP) was issued and the Selection Committee determined Griffin & Strong, P.C. to be the best firm to perform the study. The consultant shall conduct a study to determine if there is ongoing disparity between the number of minority and women owned businesses that are willing and able to perform on construction, CCNA professional services, non-CCNA professional services, and goods and services contracts and the numbers of these same business types who are actually participating in these same types of contracts with the County. The comprehensive Disparity Study Update is a statistical analysis of the availability and utilization of M/WBEs in the industry segments of Construction, Horizontal and Vertical (new, renovation and renewals); Professional Services CCNA; Professional Services non-CCNA; and Goods and Services. The study period shall consist of five (5) years (2019 to 2023) for each industry segment and shall include the use of appropriate quantitative and qualitative methodologies. During the course of the study the Consultant shall consider relevant statistical, historical, sociological and anecdotal evidence and other variables that may have impeded the formation, growth, availability, or utilization of M/WBEs.

1. Summary: The proposed millage rates for Countywide, Library, and Fire Rescue MSTU are at the current year millage rate and above the rolled-back rate. The millage rate for the Jupiter Fire MSTU is below the current year millage rate and below the rolled-back rate. These millage rates are not-to-exceed rates, and may be lowered but not raised at the September public hearings, without additional Truth in Millage (TRIM) notices being sent out. If the rates are raised at the first September public hearing, new notices to the property owners must be prepared by the Property Appraiser and mailed between 10 to 15 days prior to the second September public hearing at the County’s expense. Although permitted under Florida Statute, completing this task within the allotted timeframe is logistically unfeasible for Palm Beach County due to the high number of parcels. Additionally, with an estimated expense of approximately $500,000, it is also impractical. The rates cannot be raised at the second September public hearing. Countywide (DB)
