This Project requires full closure within Project limits during construction, and the timing of this closure was coordinated with the farming community, as well as the western municipalities, and unrelated FDOT work. Pursuant to Sections 2-52, 2-53 (f) and 2-54 (f)(4) of the Palm Beach County Purchasing Code, and based on the emergency circumstances where approval by the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) could not be obtained in a timely manner, the County Engineer executed the Notice to Proceed on November 25, 2025. Work Order 2023055-53 provides for a contract time of 120 days. The Contract is one (1) of two (2) contracts with an available cumulative total of $18,000,000. Prior to this meeting date, approximately $5,875,782 of the $18,000,000 Contract have been spent or encumbered. The Contract was presented to the Goal Setting Committee (GSC) on August 16, 2023, and the GSC established an Affirmative Procurement Initiative (API) of a 15% minimum mandatory Small Business Enterprise (SBE) participation. The proposed SBE participation for the Work Order is 21.84%. To date, the overall SBE participation achieved on this Contract is 19%. District 6 (YBH)

1. Staff recommends motion to approve: a Budget Amendment in the Opioid Settlement Fund (OSF) in the amount of $769,576 to recognize funds received from the McKinsey Opioid Settlement. Summary: A settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit against McKinsey & Company, Inc. and related entities, claiming that McKinsey played a central role in the opioid crisis by advising opioid manufacturers and other industry participants on strategies to maximize sales of prescription opioids. The lawsuit is known as In re McKinsey & Co., Inc. National Prescription Opiate Consultant Litigation, Case No. 3:21-md-02996-CRB (N.D. California). McKinsey denies plaintiffs’ allegations. As a General-Purpose Government, Palm Beach County (the County) was included in the Class and received $769,575.38 from the settlement. Per the settlement agreement, these funds must be used exclusively for approved purposes designated to abate the opioid epidemic. Although these funds were distributed directly to the County and not through the Florida Opioid Allocation and Statewide Response Agreement between the State of Florida and certain local governments in the State of Florida (including the County), the agreement requires that any additional settlement funding from pharmaceutical supply chain participants be included in state reporting. Accordingly, these funds will be incorporated in the Behavioral Health and Substance Use Disorder Master Plan 2024 (Plan 2024). The Plan 2024 outlines several initiatives and strategies recommended to achieve a person-centered, resilience, and recovery-oriented system of care. It also provides recommendations for the use of OSF. These recommendations were developed by the Behavioral Health Substance Use and/or Co-Occurring Disorders (BHSUCOD), which is facilitated by Palm Beach County Community Services Department (CSD) staff. The BHSUCOD recommended that OSF should be spent as follows: 90% on social determinants of health, prioritizing housing, recovery support, care coordination, environmental strategies to include youth, families, and community education, and 10% on deep-end and crisis care.

(HLC), in an amount not to exceed $30,000, to equip a cohort of faith-based organizations (FBOs) with the technical knowledge, partnerships, and financial readiness needed to transform underutilized FBO-owned land into viable, sustainable, affordable housing developments. HLC will launch and manage the comprehensive training program entitled the Faith-Based Affordable Housing Development Program (Program). Summary: In the fall of 2025, the Community Services Department (CSD) began discussions with affordable housing sector leaders, including Housing Leadership Council of Palm Beach County, Inc. The Program will leverage proven curriculum frameworks developed by the Florida Housing Coalition (FHC) and other partners, incorporating best practices from faith-based development initiatives such as the nationally recognized “Yes In God’s Backyard” (YIGBY) movement. The goal is to empower FBOs to advance from concept to construction-ready projects that contribute to the implementation of Palm Beach County’s “Housing for All” Plan (Plan) and help address regional affordable housing and homelessness challenges. This initiative will include the process to develop cottage homes and micro units. HLC is uniquely qualified to provide these services based on its established role within Palm Beach County (County) and the Continuum of Care (CoC), its extensive knowledge of the County’s housing needs, and its specialized affordable housing sector to provide these services in alignment with HUD’s CoC performance objectives.

B) an Interlocal Contract with The District Board of Trustees Palm Beach State College (PBSC), for the period of February 1, 2026 through September 30, 2028, in a total amount of $90,000, of which $30,000 is budgeted in FY 2026, with an anticipated annual allocation of $30,000 for each subsequent FY, contingent upon a budgetary appropriation by the BCC for the term of the Contract, to provide vocational training to low-income County residents.

Summary: PBCFB was selected through the Community Action Program (CAP) Grant Year (GY) 2026 Community Services Block Grant (CSBG) Request for Proposal (RFP) process, and PBSC was selected as a sole-source provider due to its accreditation, industry partnership, established training facilities, and ability to offer state-approved credentialing programs not available through other local providers. Skill-set building and vocational/employment training services are funded by the CSBG and are allocated annually based on the amount of funding received each GY. These services will be delivered to low-income individuals residing in the County. The skill-set building category includes training in computer literacy, life skills, work readiness, and financial budgeting. The vocational/employment training category provides instruction in trades such as plumbing, welding, security, childcare, and various other vocational fields. In GY 2025, the Family Self-Sufficiency Program (FSSP) enrolled 151 clients, with 50 completing vocational training. Participants also received supportive skill-set building services, including resume writing, soft skills development, and financial management, to enhance their ability to obtain and maintain employment. Additionally, clients enrolled in the FSSP receive supportive services such as utility assistance, rental assistance, and referrals to community resources throughout their participation in the program. These GY 2026 CSBG funded programs are expected to serve approximately 250 participants across both programs. The number of clients served is based on the grant allocation, training cost, and client needs. Retroactive approval is requested due to an extended negotiation process. No County funds are required.

Summary: The Community Services Block Grant (CSBG) Act, as amended in 1998, requires the establishment of a CAAB, which participates in the planning, implementation, and evaluation of CSBG programs to serve low- income communities. The Community Action Programs (CAPs) were created through the Economic Opportunity Act of 1964, on the premise that local citizens are the most knowledgeable and best equipped to address poverty-related challenges in their given communities. Per Resolution R2018-0372, adopted on April 10, 2018, amending Resolution R2014-0588, the CAAB is comprised of no more than 15 members, consisting of at least one-third public officials appointed by the Board of County Commissioners (BCC); one-third private sector leaders recommended by the CAAB, and one-third low-income community members selected through a democratic selection process within the targeted neighborhoods. The CAAB’s structure is defined by federal statute, known as a tripartite board. The Florida Department of Commerce (FDOC) is the primary conduit to receive and disperse CSBG funds to the local CAP. The CAP provides services, assistance, and other activities of sufficient scope and size to support low-income individuals and families throughout Palm Beach County (County).

(HUB), the service provider for the parking and revenue control system (PARCS) at PBI. Installation of the EMV terminals permit more secure credit card payments via chip and pin, chip and signature and contactless tap payments. Payment gateway services are needed to securely process payments and encrypt customer data that is transmitted through the EMV terminals to the County’s financial institution, Wells Fargo. In order to ensure compatibility with PBI’s PARCS, HUB requires use of specific gateway services providers. TNS was identified as the payment gateway service provider for the EMV terminals to be installed at PBI by HUB. The term of the Agreement will commence on February 3, 2026, and expire on December 31, 2028 with automatic 30-day renewals, unless terminated by either party, for a maximum total term of five (5) years, including renewals. The Agreement provides for payment of a transaction fee per customer transaction, a monthly terminal software compliance fee and hourly fees for support services on an as needed basis. This item establishes a budget for payment of gateway services in an amount not to exceed $135,000 per year. Actual payments will be based on the number of customer transactions. The Agreement includes nonstandard limitation of liability and indemnification provisions that differs from that adopted for use by the County under PPM #CW-F-049. The Risk Management Department and County Attorney’s Office have reviewed the limitation of liability and indemnification for this Agreement and advised staff accordingly. TNS’s liability is limited to the amount paid by the County during the six (6) months preceding any claim and require the County indemnify TNS to the extent permitted by law. Because payment gateway services are required to ensure compliance with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), and HUB requires use of specific service providers to ensure compatibility with the existing PARCS, staff is recommending approval of the Agreement by the Board of County Commissioners (BCC).

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

Summary: PBCHA is seeking approval from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to utilize 56 PBVs for the Project located at 4455 West Tiffany Drive, Mangonia Park. HUD requires an environmental review be performed in accordance with Federal Regulations at 24 CFR Part 58.

The environmental review has been completed and the County must now provide to HUD a RROF for the project. The RROF affirms that the procedures required by 24 CFR Part 58 have been followed, that the activity did not require an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), and that the County will comply with the National Environmental Policy Act and other environmental laws as they relate to the project. The required Notice of Intent to Request Release of Funds was published on January 12, 2026, and no public comments were received during a 15-day comment period.

Summary: On July 12, 2022, the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approved an ARPA Response Projects Fund award of $2,500,000 for the development of Calusa Pointe II. At the time of the ARPA funding approval, the project consisted of 144 units of which 114 were to be rented to households whose income did not exceed 60% of the AMI ($70,140 for a family of four [4]) and 30 units at 50% AMI ($58,450 for a family of four [4]) for an affordability period of 50-years. On November 19, 2024, the BCC approved a HBLP award of $7,560,000 for the Project. As a result of an application for, and subsequent approval of State SAIL funding, the Project grew to include an additional 24 units for a total of 168 units with different affordability levels than the ARPA funding, with 42 units at no more than 50% AMI. Matching HBLP affordability would increase the total number of units restricted to no more than 50% AMI by 12 for a total of 42 units; and 126 units restricted to no more than 80% AMI ($93,520 for a family of four [4]). The 60% affordability is not being eliminated, rather, the affordability structure is being realigned to a single County standard under the HBLP. This alignment increases the number of deeply affordable units at or below 50% AMI, preserves workforce housing units up to 80% AMI, and allows the Project to operate under one consistent affordability framework. Aligning the affordability requirements of the ARPA award with the HBLP award ensures consistent enforcement, provides a longer affordability period, deeper affordability (126 units at AMI at no more than 80% AMI, and 42 units at 50% or below AMI), and an increase in overall number of county assisted units and preserves the County’s long term affordability objectives.

B) approve a Budget Amendment in the amount of $959,757 from the Water Utilities Department Capital Improvement Fund to establish budget for the grant.

Summary: The State of Florida allocated funding according to House Rule 5-14 for appropriations projects that meet the criteria for Community Project Funding Requests. Uncertainties related to population growth in Florida and in Palm Beach County will continue to apply pressure on traditional drinking water sources. The challenge that faces public utilities across the country is to secure new reliable drinking water sources for their customers and the community that are robust and resilient. The Project will recycle and purify water that will be used to recharge the regional aquifer and provide a sustainable source of water for nearby production wells. The Project includes the design and construction of a new Water Purification Facility (WPF) located at the Southern Region Water Reclamation Facility (SRWRF) capable of treating two (2) million gallons per day (MGD) of purified water and expandable to four (4) MGD. Additionally, the Project includes a new state-of-the-art education/learning facility co-located with the WPF, and a new 63 acre public park with purified waterways located at the corner of Jog and Flavor Pict Road. Pursuant to Section 2-80.22 of the Equal Business Opportunity (EBO) Ordinance and County PPM CW-O-043, this project is exempt from the EBO requirements. The CPF application was submitted as part of Palm Beach County’s 2024 Federal Legislative Agenda. EPA's terms state that recipient signatures on award letters are not required. The recipient demonstrates its commitment to carry out this award by either: 1) drawing down funds within 21 days after the EPA award or amendment mailing date; or 2) not filing a notice of disagreement with the award terms and conditions within 21 days after the EPA award.

The Victim Services Grant Coordinator position will be approved for the length of the grant funding and will be deleted from the DVS complement when funding is discontinued. Retroactive approval is being requested due to the Florida Department of Health (DOH) not releasing the funding to FCASV until mid-October. As the only certified rape crisis program in Palm Beach County, for the period of July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025, DVS assisted 940 new and ongoing primary and secondary victims with 11,892 units of service.

Summary: The PSL Express route started service on September 23, 2024, traveling north-south via I-95, providing two (2) morning and two (2) evening peak-time trips between West Palm Beach and Port St. Lucie. The PSL Express is connecting riders to major employment destinations and activity centers in Palm Beach County. The service utilizes coach-style buses to transport riders along the designated routes. These vehicles are currently leased for the start of this pilot program. The leasing and operating assistance costs are 100% grant funded by FDOT, and these amendments provide additional funding for the second year of the agreements. FDOT has committed to funding this project for several years after the completion of a successful pilot phase. Palm Tran will continue to collaborate with FDOT and the St. Lucie County/Area Regional Transit for service continuation, as this is a key project identified in their Transit Development Plan (TDP). The PTGA Amendments do not require a local match. The grant requires broader indemnification by the County than that approved by PPM CW-F-049.

1. Staff recommends motion to adopt: Resolution repealing and replacing Resolution 2013-0242 regarding the Division of Senior and Veterans Services (DSVS), authorizing the County Administrator, or his designee, signatory authority for individual agreements, amendments, and any other necessary documents related to the Area Agency on Aging of Palm Beach/Treasure Coast, Inc. (AAA); the Florida Department of Elder Affairs (DOEA); and the Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA), that do not exceed 30% of the grant award or $500,000, whichever is greater, effective February 3, 2026. Summary: An amended resolution is necessary to authorize signature authority for individual agreements, amendments, Adult Day Care licensing documents, and any other required paperwork related to grants or contracts with AAA, DOEA, and AHCA. DSVS receives annual federal and state grant funds through agreements or contracts with AAA and DOEA. These contracts are periodically updated to reflect budgetary priorities and to adjust award amounts when unused federal funds become available. Additionally, DSVS Adult Day Care programs require licensure and biennial renewal by the AHCA to ensure compliance with the rules and regulations adopted by the State of Florida, as authorized under Chapter 429, Part III, Florida Statutes, and Rule 59A-16 of the Florida Administrative Code. Delegating signatory authority to the County Administrator, or his designee, for individual agreements, amendments, and other necessary documents within the defined threshold will allow for timely spending of funds and ensure compliance with grant mandates. All agreements, amendments, and related documents signed by the County Administrator, or his designee, will be presented to the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) as receive-and-file items in accordance with PPM CW-O-051.

2. Staff recommends to:

A) approve a pilot program utilizing Opioid Settlement Funds (OSF), in an amount not-to-exceed $500,000, to support the acquisition of tiny homes to be owned and operated by a nonprofit agency and used as transitional housing for opioid settlement-eligible populations; and

B) delegate authority to the County Administrator, or designee, to execute agreements, and any non-substantive amendments thereto, between Palm Beach County (County) and nonprofit agencies (to be determined) for the purchase of tiny homes utilizing OSF, in an amount not-to-exceed $100,000 per unit ~~agreement~~, that do not substantially change the scope of work, terms or conditions of future documents.

Summary: The County has received OSF to support strategies that address substance use disorder and its impacts, including housing instability among affected individuals. Staff proposes to utilize a portion of these funds to support the acquisition of tiny homes that will be owned and operated by a nonprofit agency and used as transitional housing to serve populations eligible under the opioid settlement allowable uses. Under the proposed structure, the County will enter into an agreement directly with a nonprofit agency. The nonprofit agency will be responsible for procuring the tiny homes in accordance with applicable procurement requirements, managing construction or purchase activities, and assuming ownership, operation, and long-term responsibility for the units. The County will not retain ownership of the tiny homes and will have no ongoing operational or maintenance responsibility. To facilitate timely procurement, the agreement may allow for a one (1) time advance payment of a portion of the total funding, with remaining funds disbursed on a reimbursement basis upon submission of required documentation and verification of progress or completion. The agreement will establish funding limits, performance requirements, reporting requirements, and compliance provisions consistent with opioid settlement requirements. Authorization is requested to delegate authority to the County Administrator, or designee, to execute the agreement and approve non-substantive amendments necessary to implement the project. Total funding under the agreements will not exceed $500,000. Countywide (JBR)

The TOUR, a private for-profit entity created by the PGA in 2023 to do business on behalf of the PGA is seeking to contract with the County.

The TOUR will be responsible for all activities and services regarding the planning, organization, production, and operation of the tournaments and shall be responsible for the full cost of such activities and services. The Agreement also requires the TOUR to provide the County with certain deliverables, such as branding placement, media presence, and activations hosted by the Tourist Development Council (TDC), Palm Beach County Sports Commission, Inc.

G. FACILITIES DEVELOPMENT & OPERATIONS

1. Staff requests Board direction: whether to proceed with further evaluation and staff-level negotiations related to a privately initiated concept submitted by Related Ross, LLC (Related Ross) for a Convention Center headquarters hotel intended to support and complement the Palm Beach County Convention Center (Convention Center). Summary: Staff received written correspondence from Related Ross dated January 22, 2026, outlining a privately initiated concept for a Convention Center headquarters hotel to be developed on privately owned property in proximity to the Palm Beach County Convention Center. The correspondence requests the opportunity to engage with County staff regarding the concept and outlines a preliminary development vision intended to support the Convention Center’s long-term competitiveness. Staff is seeking direction on whether to proceed with staff-level engagement to evaluate and advance the developer’s concept, including the potential negotiation of deal structure and key terms, or to decline further engagement. Any discussions would address ownership and delivery structure, site conditions, parking solutions, infrastructure and public-realm considerations, and coordination with the City of West Palm Beach. The concept is presented under the County’s economic development authority pursuant to Florida Statutes §125.045, which authorizes counties to pursue initiatives that serve a public purpose, including those that promote economic development, job creation, and regional competitiveness. While unsolicited, the concept aligns with long-standing County objectives to strengthen the Convention Center market by increasing the supply of committable headquarters hotel rooms.
