Draft Minutes of the Village Council Regular Session held May 27, 2021 Page 6 of 8 VILLAGE COUNCIL MATTERS/REPORTS Mayor Aubrey asked Council to consider changing the Regular Council meeting start time from 7:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. The Council came to consensus to change the Regular Council meeting start time from 7:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. by resolution at the next Regular Council meeting scheduled for June 10, 2021. Mayor Aubrey addressed the previous public comment made by Ms. Schmitt regarding the Advisory Board appointment process. Mayor Aubrey stated that as a general rule he would lean toward supporting reappointments and has been reluctant to replace a member that has experience, knowledge, a good attendance record and contributes to the board. Mayor Aubrey stated that on the other hand, he sees that by not appointing more new members, new perspectives and fresh ideas are not being brought into the boards and committees. Mayor Aubrey recommended that the Council think about the Advisory Board appointment process and consider making changes in the future. Some considerations that could be made are incorporating term limits or letting go of the longest serving members. Councilmember Bickel stated she was concerned about the high number of absences from members over the past year. Councilmember Bickel asked that once the absence limit threshold was met that Council be alerted immediately as opposed to when the appointments and reappointments take place. Discussion ensued between Councilmembers regarding notification of board and committee absences and the Advisory Board appointment process. Council came to consensus to reflect on the Advisory Board appointment process and discuss proposed changes at a future meeting. Mayor Aubrey stated that he received a letter regarding the requirement of gas stations having generators in case of a hurricane. Mayor Aubrey stated that the Village had previously passed an ordinance that required new gas stations to have a generator and older gas stations to be retrofitted for a generator. Mayor Aubrey recommended surveying the gas stations within the Village to be sure that they have complied with the ordinance. Vice Mayor Searcy asked if Council had any comments regarding the proposed antisemitism resolution. Council came to consensus to consider a resolution that would adopt the IHRA working definition of antisemitism. Attorney Rubin stated that the resolution would be prepared and placed on the next Council meeting’s agenda for consideration. VILLAGE MANAGER MATTERS/REPORTS Mr. Lukasik gave a brief explanation, history and current status of the proposed Anchorage Park Dry Storage Project. Draft Minutes of the Village Council Regular Session held May 27, 2021 Page 7 of 8 VILLAGE MANAGER MATTERS/REPORTS continued Russ Ruskay, Parks and Recreation Manager, began a presentation regarding an update on the proposed Anchorage Park Dry Storage project. Mr. Ruskay reviewed the proposed project’s goals and status. Mr. Ruskay reviewed the issues that needed discussion which were project cost, grant funding, space analysis, the Recreation Advisory Board’s recommendation, Inlet Road resident concerns and options. Mr. Ruskay reviewed and explained the existing layout of Anchorage Park and its dry storage area. Mr. Ruskay reviewed and explained a plan that reflected the Master Plan concept that would implement 136 spaces on the north side which would expand the current configuration and would remove the south side storage and add more day trailer parking. Mr. Ruskay stated that there was another option for Council to consider. Mr. Ruskay reviewed and explained the Dry Storage Space Analysis. The current layout reflected 133 total spaces and 20 day spaces. There were 320 residents currently on the waiting list. The Master Plan concept would give 136 total spaces and 24 day spaces. Mr. Ruskay reviewed and discussed the Recreation Advisory Board’s recommendations which were to follow the Master Plan Phase 2 design, relocate all dry storage to the north side, add larger spaces, have an 8-foot security fence, provide additional day trailer parking, reconfigure existing boat wash and replant the north side before construction to allow for landscape growth. Discussion ensued between Mr. Ruskay and Council regarding the proposed Anchorage Dry Storage Project. Mr. Ruskay reviewed and explained Inlet Road resident concerns which were integrity of the north canal bank if area is expanded to the north, removing of vegetation would impact views, expansion would impact bird nesting activities, no need for additional day trailer parking, and continued involvement in the planning. Mr. Ruskay reviewed the current project cost. The project in the FY 2021 CIP was budgeted at $400,000. Village Funds would be $200,000 and State grant funds would be $300,000. A probable cost for the project would be $550,000. Mr. Ruskay indicated that the instability of the current construction industry would cause an uncertainty in probable cost estimates. Mr. Ruskay explained the non-resident requirements associated with the grant funds. Mr. Ruskay stated that staff would be recommending a DEP Stormwater grant in the amount of $100,000 that would cover the cost of the crush asphalt surfaces and did not have a non -resident requirement. Mr. Ruskay discussed and explained an alternative option which would keep the existing dry storage layout, replace the fence, surface and landscaping, does not allow for larger spaces, and would have an estimated cost of $250,000. Discussion ensued between Councilmembers and Mr. Ruskay regarding the options for the proposed Anchorage Park Dry Storage project. Mr. Ruskay explained that it was important to note that if Council went forward with the LWCF grant, a decision would need to made soon since the grant expires in May 2022 and the project would need to be under construction by January 2022 in order to request any extension that may be necessary. Mr. Ruskay explained that if the LWCF grant was not used for the Anchorage Dry Storage project there was a possibility that it could be changed to be used for another project within the Village. Mr. Ruskay reviewed the fence option that was recommended by the Recreation Advisory Board. Mr. Ruskay reviewed and explained the Northside design. Draft Minutes of the Village Council Regular Session held May 27, 2021 Page 8 of 8 VILLAGE MANAGER MATTERS/REPORTS continued Mary Wratislaw, 620 Inlet Drive, expressed her concerns regarding the proposed Anchorage Park Dry Storage Project and asked if the non-residents would be able to use the boat launch in addition to the dry storage. Ms. Wratislaw expressed her concern over the blue line and where it fell on the Northside conceptual design plan and the removal of native and exotic plants and trees. Ms. Wratislaw stated that she drew up an alternative design for the project that she would be happy to share with Council. Carol Wood, 640 Inlet Drive, expressed her concerns regarding the proposed Anchorage Dry Storage Project. Ms. Wood stated the project would destroy surrounding resident’s scenic view. Ms. Wood stated that the blue line on the conceptual plan was measured by surrounding residents and the line fell in the water. Ms. Wood recommended renovating the existing dry storage layout. Mr. Ruskay concluded his presentation and asked that Council consider the options presented and direct staff as soon as possible on what option to move forward with. Discussion continued between Council and staff regarding the proposed Anchorage Dry Storage Project’s costs and options. Council agreed that staff should look into repurposing the LWCF grant. Mr. Ruskay concluded from Council’s discussion that staff would need to continue looking at the Master Plan and coming up with the best project possible, determine the amount of green space needed on the north side and repurpose the LWCF grant to be used for the Lakeside playground project. Leanne Schmitt, 604 Eastwind Drive, thanked Council for placing the proposed Anchorage Dry Storage Project on the agenda for discussion. Ms. Schmitt stated that she was in support of the concerns previously brought forward by Ms. Wood and Ms. Wratislaw. Ms. Schmitt recommended that Council choose the alternative option for the project. ADJOURNMENT There being no further business to come before the Council, the meeting was adjourned at 9:38 p.m. VILLAGE OF NORTH PALM BEACH COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT ______________________________________________________________________ TO: Honorable Mayor and Council THRU: Andrew D. Lukasik, Village Manager FROM: Jeremy Hubsch, Community Development Director; Alex Ahrenholz, Principal Planner DATE: June 10, 2021 SUBJECT: MOTION – Dimensional Exception for RV located at 417 Gull Court ______________________________________________________________________ Jessica Neal and Shane Pompa, property owners, have filed an application requesting that their existing recreational vehicle (RV) be granted a “dimensional exception” from the size criteria specified in section 18-35.1(6) of the Village Code of Ordinances. Background: The 1996 Chevy with Winnebago topper RV was purchased by the property owner before 2015 and is located on the north side of the home. It is visible from the street, but partially screened by a 6-foot high, opaque wood gate (as allowed by Section 18-35.1(8) of the Village Code). Analysis: The RV exceeds the size limitations established in 18-35.1(6) of the Village Code, which limits the maximum height to ten (10) feet and the maximum length to thirty (30) feet. The RV is approximately twelve feet-four inches (12’4”) tall and thirty feet (30’) in length. The owner has provided documentation that the RV was owned prior to November 2020, and is therefore eligible for the dimensional exception. The subject property owner is also providing vegetation in the form of a mature ficus hedge to screen the RV, but there are a few small gaps that need to be filled in to achieve screening at 90 percent opacity from the abutting property to the north, as required by 18-35-1(8) of the Village Code. There is no fiscal impact Recommendation: Staff recommends approval with the following condition: in the event any of the trees or shrubs on the applicant’s property or adjacent properties that are currently providing screening are removed, they shall be replaced on the applicants’ property or the neighboring property within six months of their removal.

Lukasik, Village Manager FROM: Jeremy Hubsch, Community Development Director; Alex Ahrenholz, Principal Planner DATE: June 10, 2021 SUBJECT: MOTION – Dimensional Exception for RV located at 901 Shore Drive ______________________________________________________________________ Dale Shilling, property owner, has filed an application requesting that his existing recreational vehicle (RV) be granted a “dimensional exception” from the size criteria specified in section 18- 35.1(6) of the Village Code of Ordinances. Background: The Fleetwood Revolution LE RV was purchased by the property owner in 2008 and is located on the west side of the home. It is visible from the street, but is partially screened by a six (6) foot tall, wood gate. The frontage of the property is approximately 75 feet, and is a corner lot. Analysis: The RV exceeds the size limitations established in 18-35.1(6) of the Village Code, which limits the maximum height to ten (10) feet and the maximum length of thirty (30) feet. The RV is approximately 12 feet 10 inches (12’10”) tall, and 40 feet 11.5 (40’11.5”) inches in length. The owner has provided documentation that the RV was owned prior to November 2020, and is therefore eligible for the dimensional exception. The property owner and neighboring property owners have a substantial amount of trees and shrubs to provide screening. The subject property owner has also provided vegetation to screen the RV from the rear, which provides screening at 90 percent opacity from the abutting property to the north, as required by 18-35-1(8) of the Village Code. However, the hedges currently providing 90 percent opaque screening are not yet tall enough to completely cover the RV. There is no fiscal impact Recommendation: Staff recommends approval with the following conditions: (1) the hedges be allowed to grow a few feet taller to completely screen the RV; and (2) if any of the trees or shrubs on the applicant’s property or adjacent properties that are currently providing screening are removed, they shall be replaced on the applicant’s property or neighboring property within six months of their removal. Attachments: 1. Supporting Materials 901 Shore Drive request for Dimensional Exception: History: Prior to purchasing RV on 3/28/2008, I had multiple meeting with Mr. Chuck Huff then and then Building Director in early 2008 to ask for permission and guidance due to the outdated codes and lack of enforcement. I was asked to put in a gated / fenced enclosure not to exceed 6’ and add a concrete drive entry. The request to do a 8’ fence was denied. The permit was issued and I purchased the RV. A completely Fenced 20 x 75 Pad currently encloses the RV. In addition to the Fence, we also added a Hedge that currently is over 11 feet on 3 sides. In addition to the current approval, I would like approval now for the option to replace the coach for equal or smaller size that will still exceed the current codes. Thank You for your consideration. Dale Shilling VILLAGE OF NORTH PALM BEACH VILLAGE MANAGER’S OFFICE TO: Honorable Mayor and Council FROM: Andrew D.

Similar ordinances have been adopted by the Town of Juno Beach, the Village of Tequesta and the Town of Jupiter Inlet Colony. The attached Ordinance has been prepared and reviewed for legal sufficiency by the Village Attorney. At its May 27, 2020 regular session, the Village Council adopted the Ordinance on first reading without modification. There is no fiscal impact. Recommendation: Village Staff recommends Council consideration to adopt and enact on second reading the attached Ordinance adopting a new Section 19-3 of the Village Code to prohibit the release of floating balloons and sky lanterns within the Village and to prohibit the display, release or distribution of balloons on public beaches and in public parks.

Lukasik, Village Manager DATE: June 10, 2021 SUBJECT: MOTION – Accepting the ranking by the Selection Committee for Overhead Utility Undergrounding Project Management and Engineering Consulting Services and authorizing Staff to commence negotiation of an Agreement with Kimley-Horn. Village Staff is recommending Council approval of the Selection Committee’s ranking of the firms submitting qualification statements in response to the Village’s Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for Overhead Utility Undergrounding Project Management and Engineering Consulting Services. Background: Undergrounding overhead utilities has been identified as a desired project for the Village:  The 2016 Citizens’ Master Plan identified undergrounding as a lower priority infrastructure project.  Additionally, the Village Council has identified undergrounding overhead utilities as a priority in the Village’s Annual Strategic Plan. There are several reasons to consider undergrounding overhead power lines:  Aesthetics: The appearance of an area can be greatly improved by reducing the visual clutter of utility wires and poles.  Increased Reliability: Falling tree limbs and blowing debris from high winds frequently cause utility disruptions by destroying overhead lines. According to data submitted to the Florida Public Service Commission by FPL, underground power systems perform significantly better than overhead systems during hurricanes and other significant windstorm events.  Safety and Community Health: Burying lines eliminates fire hazards, accidents, and safety risks from power outages due to downed lines. People and animals are far less likely to come into contact with underground power lines than they are with overhead power lines.  Economic Development: Many revitalization experts agree that investing in improving the appearance of traditional commercial areas is one of the best ways to attract new business and stimulate economic development. Minimizing the visual impact of utilities can be a major strategy to beautify and revitalize an area. In addition to the Village’s interest in undergrounding overhead utility lines, it is important to note that Florida Power and Light (FPL) has an immediate interest in hardening the power system in the Village. FPL has submitted nine permit applications to harden its energy grid in the Village since July 2019. These permits were submitted to the Village as part of FPL’s state-wide initiative to harden facilities by 2024. FPL and the Village have communicated about the status of FPL’s hardening initiative and are working collaboratively to implement a plan to underground overhead facilities as opposed to investing in new poles. Undergrounding now, before FPL hardens its overhead facilities, will allow the Village to leveraging the lower cost of removing depreciated infrastructure and using a regulatory “credit” from FPL to reduce the cost of the project. The reason for this is that, under Florida Public Service Commission regulations and the tariff that governs the underground conversion of overhead power lines, FPL is required to give the Village a 25 percent discount toward the cost of a new, underground power system. Additionally, FPL provides credit for the cost avoidance of overhead hardening projects that FPL has scheduled but are able to cancel due to local undergrounding initiatives. Request for Qualifications (RFQ) Process: In accordance with Section 287.055, Florida Statutes (Consultants’ Competitive Negotiation Act), the Village issued an RFQ on January 14, 2021 in an effort to identify the most qualified firm to provide utility undergrounding project management and engineering consulting services to the Village. A Selection Committee consisting of Village Manager Andy Lukasik, Acting Director of Public Works Chuck Huff, Building Official Wayne Cameron and Village residents Todd Engle (Palm Beach Gardens’ City Engineer) and Craig Perkins (owner of Perk Construction) participated in the initial review of the qualification statements. The following five firms submitted their qualification on March 5, 2021: Kimley-Horn, Brannon & Gillespie, Utility Consultants of Florida, Ferreira, and Engenuity. Based upon the Committee’s review of the qualification statements submitted by each firm, Kimley-Horn and Brannon & Gillespie were shortlisted and invited to make presentations to the Committee and respond to specific questions from the Committee members. On April 16, 2021, the Committee, with Wayne Cameron being unable to attend, received presentations from the two shortlisted firms. Although both firms are extremely experienced and well qualified, the Committee selected Kimley-Horn as the firm that will best be able to address the Village’s needs as part of any utility undergrounding project. Kimley-Horn demonstrated a superior understanding of the Village’s need for communication with the public and the need to identify and secure alternate sources of funding for the project. In accordance with the requirements of the CCNA and the RFQ issued by the Village, the Village Council is required to approve the Selection Committee’s ranking of the firms and authorize Staff to commence competitive negotiations with the top-ranked firm. If Staff is unable to negotiate an agreement and scope of work with the top-ranked firm, Staff will terminate negotiations with Kimley-Horn and negotiate an agreement with the Branon & Gillespie, the second-ranked firm. Next Step: Master Plan and Feasibility Study Eventually, the Village will be working with one of the consulting firms to develop a Utility Undergrounding Master Plan and Feasibility Study. Should Council provide staff with the authorization to proceed at tonight’s meeting, staff will work to negotiate a contract with Kimley-Horn for the completion of a Master Plan and Feasibility Study which will serve as the initial utility undergrounding plan for the Village. The Utility Undergrounding Master Plan and Feasibility Study will complete the necessary evaluation of the existing overhead utilities to determine how to phase in the undergrounding project throughout the Village, when each phase could take place and how much each phase will cost. Although the Master Plan and Feasibility Study won’t be exactly like this, one can view the work that Kimley-Horn completed for Key Biscayne as an example of work product that the Village can anticipate. It can be found at the following website: http://kbunderground.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Key_Biscayne_MP_3-8-2019_spread-view-r.pdf Should the Village ultimately enter into an agreement with Kimley-Horn, staff anticipates that the Village’s Master Plan and Feasibility Study would be similar to this document, but will not need to include the extensive photos, transportation management plans or an evaluation of the project delivery methods. Recommendation: Village Staff recommends Council consideration and approval of a motion accepting the Selection Committee’s ranking of Kimley-Horn as the top-ranked firm and Brannon & Gillespie as the second-ranked firm and authorizing Staff to commence negotiations for an Overhead Utility Undergrounding Project Management and Engineering Consulting Services Agreement with the top-ranked firm in accordance with Village policies and procedures.

IWOP30001.2021o OverheadUtilityNorthPalmBeachVillageof Undergrounding 3 SECTION 2. APPROACH TO THE PROJECT Kimley-Horn has a history of successful overhead-to-underground conversion projects for numerous public and private clients. We know that the burial of the overhead utilities can transform a community; both functionally and aesthetically. The removal of overhead lines from the skyline can be aesthetically striking and is often a significant motivator for conversion projects. More critically, the conversion will significantly improve the level of system resiliency and service reliability for the electric, telephone, and cable communications to the community. To execute an overhead-to-underground conversion the Village needs a consultant team they can trust—one who listens, understands, and has the local talent and proven experience to plan, design, and execute this type of project efficiently and cost-effectively. This is particularly true when the Village anticipates relying on a Consultant to serve as an extension of staff to perform a Village-wide conversion project that will ultimately impact every individual property owner in the Village in some manner. Kimley-Horn is that consultant. Kimley-Horn has successfully completed and is currently engaged in several similar projects and programs, such as the Town-Wide Undergrounding Program in the Town of Palm Beach, the Village-wide Undergrounding Program for the Village of Key Biscayne, as well as serving as an on-call Undergrounding Consultant for Pompano Beach and the City of Miami Beach. This extensive undergrounding conversion experience, combined with the breadth of in-house expertise at Kimley- Horn, provides you with peace of mind that engineering and community challenges of any sort can be managed by your consultant. It is not just our expertise in undergrounding that sets us apart, it is our expertise in many areas ranging from roadway design to landscape architecture to structural engineering, and the ease with which we can bring that expertise together to solve problems efficiently and expeditiously. Collaborating with our in-house partners across multiple disciplines provides Kimley-Horn with a unique perspective and approach to completing project designs that is unmatched by other consultants. Our project approach draws on our extensive experience in this unique field. This broad knowledge base allows you to be confident in the successful implementation of your undergrounding project. Keys to Success Careful Planning Large infrastructure projects based on a carefully prepared master plan and phased over time in a manner that maximizes time/cost efficiency, minimizes project risk, and is sensitive to community impacts before, during, and after implementation. Expert Team These projects are unique and having a local team that understands the very nuanced and difficult requirements that must be met in order to properly plan, construct, and commission new underground electric and communication systems is imperative to the success of the project. The Kimley-Horn team has developed a unique process to accomplish this and has achieved great success where others have failed. Communication Responsiveness and a high level of communication between all parties involved, including the engineering design and construction teams, utility providers, Village staff, Village Council, and the Village residents and business owners is essential. Communication is critical to managing schedules, budgets, and ensuring that the project meets the needs of stakeholders. Staff Continuity From planning to construction—continuity of consultant staff is a must. Kimley-Horn prides itself on being a great place to work—this is critical to staff continuity on our projects, particularly where teams are anticipated to work together for multiple years. Our team of professionals stick with you through the program from planning through design and construction. This continuity of team members through the entire project life cycle prevents steep learning curves and potential misinterpretations of design intent. Strong Teaming Partners Kimley-Horn has utilized our teaming partners on this assignment for numerous past projects and have selected this team based on the quality of their services, responsiveness, and successful project history. For this assignment, we have partnered with Avirom & Associates for surveying, InfraMap for SUE services, Radise for geotechnical engineering services, and Waypoint for commercial service design to supplement our experienced in-house utility undergrounding and public outreach staff. Provide Community Outreach Providing information about a project to the community can be as important as the design of that project. We can prepare all exhibits/media, websites, newsletters, telephone/email information lines, present to the community, or simply provide support for Village staff in their normal outreach efforts. We understand how to provide information to large groups through various mediums as well as how to have a one-on-one conversation in a resident’s living room regarding an easement need. Think Big Picture We will look beyond the project: What are the long-term goals? What are the long-term opportunities for community enhancement? We will help the Village identify opportunities to realize savings of combining efforts with other capital projects as we have with other community conversion projects. IWOP30001.2021o OverheadUtilityNorthPalmBeachVillageof Undergrounding 4 TEAM ORGANIZATION Effective project oversight is essential to providing positive outcomes on any project. Our approach to this project begins with leadership who understand this type of work, know the stakeholders involved, have proven experience with the successful execution of large-scale infrastructure projects, have extensive experience with undergrounding projects, and are committed to the success and implementation of your project. As principal-in-charge, Kevin Schanen, P.E. will provide high level oversight and offer the Village a seasoned expert with a wealth of experience. Mr. Schanen possesses an abundance of electrical, civil and telecommunications experience, having served as project manager for a number of municipal undergrounding programs, neighborhood overhead to underground conversion projects, and both large- and small-scale municipal infrastructure projects. He has also designed sub-station sites for FPL, as well as hundreds of communications facilities for AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, and others across the southeastern United States. Day-to-day efforts will be overseen by project manager Brett Johnson, P.E., who also has extensive undergrounding experience in Palm Beach, Boynton Beach, and West Palm Beach. Brett also brings unique perspective to our team in that prior to him joining Kimley-Horn, he worked for the Village of Royal Palm Beach as a staff engineer and project manager. Brett leverages this unique experience to execute projects in a manner that considers not only design and construction needs, but also municipal processes. Kimley-Horn can plan and execute this project while maximizing efficiencies learned from past projects utilizing a network of internal staff and strategic teaming partners. Our multidisciplinary team will provide the Village with a high level of service and a wealth of knowledge unparalleled in the industry. As Project Manager, Brett has the ability to call on the full resources of the firm to support the Village of North Palm Beach as needed to meet project timetables. Even the most experienced and dedicated manager would not be able to produce high quality work without a complete and committed team of professionals. We offer you a depth of staff and teaming partners unrivaled by other consultants in their experience with overhead to underground conversion projects. We have numerous professionals on our team with diverse experience and educational backgrounds capable of handling complicated and intricate projects such as this one. The process of undergrounding aerial facilities is a significant infrastructure project for a community that will present schedule, cost, and coordination challenges. Effective management is essential to delivering successful projects on schedule and within budget. The success of a project is largely dependent on having a project manager who understands the importance of proper coordination, project phasing, and the interdependency of various tasks and team members. The graphic on the following page demonstrates team member interaction on this project. INTEGRATED PROJECT MANAGEMENT TEAM Kevin Schanen, P.E.

Our team is available at all times for any size task and can readily adapt and scale our services to the task at hand. Think and Act as an Extension of the Village Staff Most importantly, our team will approach projects as though we are part of your staff. The Village needs a consultant who understands the importance that aesthetics, traffic flow, and overall community impacts will play during the program will be vital to success. This requires a team of locally-based experts who have the right expertise and a commitment to client service. IWOP30001.2021o OverheadUtilityNorthPalmBeachVillageof Undergrounding 5 OVERHEAD UTILITIES UNDERGROUNDING DESIGN Kimley-Horn has prepared numerous underground utility designs across the country. This design experience is the foundation of our ability to provide timely, practical, effective design and execution. Just about every land development, transit, and major infrastructure upgrade we perform involves the installation of underground electric, telephone, and cable utilities. From simple services for commercial and residential buildings to streetscape renovations like Breakers Avenue in Ft. Lauderdale, to massive infrastructure projects like the Town of Palm Beach’s Undergrounding program, Kimley-Horn has designed and extensively coordinated with the same utility providers that serve the Village to deliver completed underground utility projects for many other clients. With our depth of overhead to underground conversion experience, Kimley-Horn can provide cost-savings benefits to the Village and its residents by identifying and eliminating over-designed electrical and communications infrastructure that may only benefit the utility provider. For this contract, we have partnered with Waypoint Engineering and Equipment, LLC to assist our team with the design of commercial services that are outside of FPL’s responsibility to provide. As former FPL distribution engineer, Russell Morrison, P.E. has unique experience with FPL in the design of underground facilities. We are currently working with Waypoint in the Town of Palm Beach to provide commercial service design as many businesses have overhead service lines that need to be converted underground. FPL considers these services to be the responsibility of the customer to design and provide. Waypoint and Kimley-Horn have been working together in this capacity for several years. UTILITY PROVIDER COORDINATION To execute overhead-to-underground conversions well, proper and constant coordination with utility providers is paramount to schedule control. Kimley-Horn has extensive experience in the coordination of dry utility design with various providers like FPL, AT&T and Comcast. This level of coordination ranges from the provision of simple services for small-scale land development projects all the way to the relocation and/or undergrounding of various facilities related to large-scale infrastructure projects. Kimley-Horn has coordinated utility relocations, designs, and undergrounding on municipality-wide and various neighborhood and streetscape projects throughout southeast Florida. We anticipate that we will continue working with folks like Chanda Young-Brown and Theresa Miller at FPL; Darrell Davis and Vincent Lin at AT&T; Miya Fisher, Jeannine McEnroe, and Scott Strahn at Comcast, among others for the execution of this program. In the last 6 months, Kimley-Horn negotiated the FPL invoices submitted to the Town of Palm Beach for the Phase 3 South and Phase 4 North areas of their undergrounding program. The net result of these negotiations was a net savings of $1.5 million dollars to the Town.

Understanding that the list of utility providers operating within the limits of the Village of North Palm Beach is lengthy and having the breadth of experience to have encountered each of these utilities over the course of many projects around south Florida will be key to making the connections and providing the right information to keep projects moving forward on timely schedules. These utility providers and affected parties include: FP&L AT&T Comcast Cable Crown Castle Fiber Florida Public Utilities Hotwire Communications Village of North Palm Beach Seacoast Utilities Palm Beach County Traffic Florida Department of Transportation EASEMENT ACQUISITION In densely developed areas, easement acquisition and coordination is key to the execution of the project, and our ability to oversee this process while managing design allows for the ability to adapt to acquisition challenges. Kimley-Horn regularly partners with municipalities on a variety of projects to acquire easements needed for public infrastructure. For example, through the first four phases of the undergrounding program in Palm Beach we have assisted the Town in acquiring over 400 equipment easements for the program. All of these easements were obtained by the property owner voluntarily granting the easement – none of the easements were provided in exchange for monetary compensation which has allowed for a significant cost- savings to be realized by the Town . Kimley-Horn staff has been directly involved with these negotiations with property owners since the beginning of the program. Our experience includes obtaining numerous temporary and permanent easements for undergrounding projects. Kimley-Horn will employ the services of Avirom & Associates, our project surveyor, to prepare the legal sketches and descriptions that will be used to describe easements on each property, as may be needed. SURVEY Avirom and Associates will serve as the project surveyor for this effort. Mike Avirom has been involved with numerous infrastructure improvement projects across south Florida and has a very successful track record of delivering high-quality surveys and base maps that Kimley-Horn can use effectively to deliver construction documents. Additionally, Avirom has provided the Kimley-Horn team with design surveys, assessment maps, and easement sketch and legal descriptions for many past undergrounding projects and will do so again for this project. Mr. Avirom has a large team of survey crews across multiple offices in South Florida and has provided a high level of service to Kimley-Horn in their past work. SUBSURFACE UTILITY LOCATING For any underground related work, it is important that the design team know what exists underground as input to master planning and design—and before the selected contractor begins excavation. Performing up-front investigative work is an investment that always pays off in the form of reduced scheduling delays and change order costs. For this project, we have selected InfraMap to provide subsurface investigation services to help the design team identify existing utilities and develop locations for the new electric and communication conduits to be properly installed. GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATIONS We understand that trenchless methods of conduit installation are desirable to limit restoration needs and construction impacts associated with the program. Kimley-Horn has a lot of experience with this method of construction, having employed it on most other undergrounding conversion projects we have designed. Because it is anticipated that trenchless horizontal directional drilling will be used extensively for the construction of the electrical and communications conduits, we have partnered with Radise to provide geotechnical investigations where appropriate to determine existing soil conditions. GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEMS (GIS) Kimley-Horn utilizes GIS technology daily to provide efficient, dynamic, and effective services to our clients. Our experience with data evaluation, management, and development provides us the ability to perform and create customized models, run complex spatial analysis, and manage organizational databases that can be applied across a variety of disciplines. This expertise can be leveraged to plan, execute, track, and document projects of any type, but can be particularly effective for projects like these which require the coordination of multiple overlapping utility networks. For example, for the Village of Key Biscayne GIS was used extensively to quantify existing overhead infrastructure, pole mounted lighting that would need to be replaced once conversions were complete, existing underground infrastructure in the project area, and to illustrate proposed project phasing. LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE Kimley-Horn’s in-house landscape architects can help to implement landscape screening of the new equipment should the Village desire this service throughout the implementation of the program. Our team has prepared designs for numerous other communities in an effort to All of these easements were obtained by the property owner voluntarily granting the easement – none of the easements were provided in exchange for monetary compensation which has allowed for a significant cost-savings to be realized by the Town. Kaitlin Dombrowski was personally involved in the negotiations of many of these easements and possesses the skills required to do the same in the Village. IWOP30001.2021o OverheadUtilityNorthPalmBeachVillageof Undergrounding 7 preserve the aesthetic qualities of the community after infrastructure such as transformers, switch cabinets, and communications equipment is installed. Our team provides the right landscape professionals that can provide a level of treatment complementary to the existing area whether that area be an urban corridor or the front yard of a private residence. TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING Much of the conduit and equipment infrastructure required for this project will be installed within public rights of way. Understanding how this infrastructure will interact with both state and local roadways will be very important to successfully design, permit and construct the improvements. Roadway design and planning is one of the mainstays of our firm’s professional practice and we are well equipped to address all related aspects of roadway design when approaching the design of the conversion improvements. Collectively, our engineers have been responsible for the design of more than 3,500 miles of roadway, much of it here in Florida. Our staff is also well versed in designing maintenance of traffic (MOT) plans that balance all modes of traffic in an efficient and effective manner. MOT is no longer just about ensuring smooth and reliable vehicular traffic, but must also ensure that other modes of travel, pedestrians, bicyclists, and the physically handicapped are safely and efficiently moved through and around the construction zone. Kimley-Horn staff have provided MOT plans and strategies for numerous projects, including undergrounding conversion projects, throughout the state of Florida. UTILITY ENGINEERING AND TRENCHLESS DESIGN Kimley-Horn has extensive experience with pipeline and conduit construction, including conventional installation and horizontal directional drilling (HDD) projects. We routinely interact with and have long-standing relationships with permitting agencies to procure permits for unique pipeline and HDD projects, including those involving subaqueous crossings under sensitive wetlands and under Waters of the State. Representative projects include crossings of the Indian River Lagoon (an Outstanding Florida Water), the Intracoastal Waterway, and ocean outfalls which require special monitoring where drilling procedures are exposed to variable conditions. Kimley-Horn has designed thousands of feet of electrical conduit, communications conduit, storm, gravity sewer, force main, airline, and potable water pipelines. Most communities we work with on undergrounding projects desire those projects to be implemented with HDD methods. We leverage this experience and integrate the local nuances which allow us to successfully complete these types of projects—especially within the tight urban and residential corridors that exist within North Palm Beach. STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING Structural engineering has been a specialty discipline at Kimley-Horn in Florida for more than 40 years. Underground utility projects tend to have a few components that require structural engineering, particularly where connecting to existing facilities. Kimley-Horn offers expertise in design, construction, inspection, and evaluation of a variety of structures, including culverts, buildings, parking facilities, seawalls, bridges, retaining walls, commercial facilities, warehouses, water plants, and water control structures. In addition, we provide forensic evaluations, hurricane preparedness, and damage assessment services. Our structural professionals have developed plans and specifications NORTHLAKE BOULEVARD BEFORE AND AFTER UNDERGROUNDING BEFORE AFTER IWOP30001.2021o OverheadUtilityNorthPalmBeachVillageof Undergrounding 8 for projects ranging from simple foundations to complex multi-level multi-purpose structures. Our engineers are very familiar with local, state, federal, and national design codes and requirements and well versed in the design and analysis of concrete, steel, aluminum, wood, and masonry structures. ENVIRONMENTAL PERMITTING In the event that any of the work will require coordination with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) for subaqueous cable crossings or for any coastal engineering and permitting needs, our environmental engineers cover the gamut of concerns that could arise. We have successfully represented numerous institutional, national, and local clients before federal, state, and local agencies, including the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD), Palm Beach County Environmental Resources Management (PBCERM), the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), and the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP), among others. We are experienced in preparing permit applications for these agencies, know what is required to gain approval, and excel in providing the high level of coordination that facilitates an expedited permitting process. Once permits are issued, we track the conditions associated with each permit to ensure that the project remains in compliance through construction and final completion. PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT Because this project will be so transformative and will have such a long-lasting effect on the community, a strong public involvement program throughout the duration of the project to keep the community informed is a must. Having current experience implementing similar programs in other communities, we are very familiar with the types of project expectations that will likely be voiced by the community and stakeholders. We have the ability to coordinate communications with residents, create direct mail updates, manage media relations, serve as a public spokesperson for the project team, organize public education, information activities and meetings, as well as coordinate all website, social media and public relations needs. Additionally, to help the community get a better feel and understanding of what one of the more common pieces of infrastructure will look like, we have fabricated a faux transformer. This faux transformer can be used during public involvement meetings, resident coordination meetings, and can even be easily transported to a resident’s or business owner’s property to help the resident/ business owner visualize what the transformer will actually look like in their own front yard. CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION AND OBSERVATION SERVICES Kimley-Horn’s professional staff has extensive experience in construction administration and will keep project contractors on task, on time, and within budget. Our experience will result in the delivery of quality projects that will make both the Village and Kimley-Horn proud. Our client support includes value engineering, bid phase services, establishing financial controls to track contractor and project consultant progress, progress report development, community outreach and education, public involvement meetings, document control, and review of shop drawings and product submittals. Other services include answering questions from the contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers; observing progress in the field; serving as an owner’s representative; schedule development and tracking; administering the testing process; performing equipment and process startup; reviewing change order requests and payment applications; and making recommendations to the client. Most importantly, we serve as an extension of your staff to help you complete this most challenging project. We work very hard to make sure your interests are kept first and foremost while performing our observations in the field. Because our engineers and subconsultant partners are the same as those involved in the design, they are already familiar with the work program and can quickly determine whether the contractor is straying outside of the requirements of the plans and specifications. This allows us to make quick corrections before the project heads down the wrong path and has contributed to our many past successes. Faux Transformer IWOP30001.2021o OverheadUtilityNorthPalmBeachVillageof Undergrounding 9 Kimley-Horn can provide you with an on-site project field representative to observe contractor operations throughout the construction process. This is particularly important for components that will be buried or otherwise hidden from view at the conclusion of the project. Undergrounding of utilities such as electric, telephone, and cable must be inspected prior to installation and comprehensively photographed for future reference. All of these activities will be documented in daily reports with photographs prepared and cataloged by the field representative. These reports are then posted to a private FTP site that can be viewed by authorized users at any time. Any outstanding deviations will be brought to the contractor’s and your attention as they are discovered so they can be resolved quickly. CURRENT WORKLOAD AND AVAILABILITY OF PERSONNEL We are confident that we can meet the technical and staffing needs for this project. Our local West Palm Beach office has 149 engineers, planners, landscape architects, and support staff. Additionally, we leverage the strength of our partners around the firm every day. It is part of Kimley-Horn's philosophy not to operate individual offices as profit centers. Rather, we make it a practice to share our depth of resources firm wide. This ensures that we have more than enough staff and technical resources to complete every project on time and to your satisfaction. The members of our project team were selected using two criteria: (1) their experience with undergrounding projects and (2) their projected availability to assume major technical responsibilities under this contract. Kimley-Horn knows that undergrounding projects take planning, flexibility, and the experience that comes from a successful track record of managing multiple, simultaneous activities to achieve an end result. The Village of North Palm Beach can be assured of our responsiveness to your needs and that our services will be performed on-time and within budget. Our proactive management process ensures the availability of firm-wide and locally based resources for project staffing requirements through a proprietary program maintained on our computer network called “cast-aheads.” The cast-aheads process ensures that sufficient staff and hours are available to meet project schedules. Combined input from the firm’s project managers is compiled and distributed in the form of a report to all project managers and regional management for review and discussion at the monthly cast-ahead meeting. Work overloads and/or shortfalls for specific personnel, individual offices, and disciplines are tabulated and addressed at the meeting. Where possible, these imbalances are resolved through internal shifts of personnel between offices. The objective is to balance the workload in a manner that maximizes the use of production staff, while ensuring that all project requirements and client deadlines are met. Because of the level of effort, we spend on understanding workload and on what projects staff are working on, Kimley-Horn can define on very short notice our ability to handle any project and exactly who has the most availability to work on a project, so it is completed on time. Additionally, every Friday, we update a milestone management form that details what each local staff member will be working on for the next week. Project tasks ahead of schedule, behind schedule, and those needing additional resources are identified. Our support staff resources are then reallocated if needed to keep our projects on schedule. The chart below provides you with an overview of our West Palm Beach team’s availability to the Village for this project over the next six months. As you can see in the chart below, our West Palm Beach office staff has over 18,000 hours of availability to serve you over the next six months. This is roughly equivalent to 18 full time staff members who would be available to serve you under the leadership of Brett Johnson, P.E., your project manager. Our core team members, including subconsultants, are all located locally in Palm Beach County. We are available by phone at any time and can be at Village Hall within minutes. When you call us, Kimley-Horn will be ready.

Meeting your schedule for deliverables is not just a goal to us—it is a requirement. Both cost and schedule control are inherently tied to people. Their experiences, vision, management styles, and philosophies all affect significant components of a project approach and its execution. We know there always will be unexpected challenges unique to any given project, so it is critical that an approach be developed and followed that controls what can be controlled and builds in mechanisms for dealing with the unexpected. Our best cost and schedule control resource—our staff—has several tools available to help them keep close track of your costs and schedule. The team members selected for this project have the experience to develop appropriate targets, tailor a suitable course of action, and provide timely decision-making for any unexpected challenges that may arise. COST CONTROL Kimley-Horn is sensitive to meeting client budgetary needs and has employed a variety of measures to ensure we design a project within budget. Our recent experience providing these services for numerous governmental entities has given us significant command of current design processes and construction cost-saving options. The best way to control construction costs is to provide detailed design plans and specifications to ensure the contractor is well aware of the existing conditions and proposed design features to complete accurate bids. Insufficient information leads to contingency pricing and supplements during construction. Key components to cost control are: Detailed Work Plans – Thorough planning with descriptions of goals, milestones, QA/QC plans, detailed staff-hour estimates, and items critical to the project’s success. Preparation of Detailed Plans and Specifications – Vague and limited details can lead to higher bids and change orders during construction. Accurate and Up-to-Date Project Cost Estimates – With similar projects recently bid and under construction, we have current unit costs to use for preparing opinions of probable costs. Quality Control Review – We will evaluate the project at each milestone to determine if there are areas where we can add value by modifying our design to take advantage of construction cost saving opportunities. Evaluate Current Construction Practices – With ongoing construction projects, we continuously evaluate construction methods and materials to find ways to value engineer our projects. Communication – Continuous interaction between the Village of North Palm Beach, Kimley-Horn, and the contractor will result in a focus on quality. Immediate attention to potential problems is paramount to minimizing cost overruns. Not every project will be completed without field adjustments that may result in a change order. Some will be due to a Village requested change in scope and some change orders will be due to an unforeseen site issue or conflict. The key to minimizing change order risk is to produce a set of plans and specifications that are well thought through and sufficiently detailed. Plans that are clear and concise leave little room for question. Beyond that, continuous communication with the contractor can eliminate or minimize change order costs. Kimley- Horn will scrutinize any and all change orders to ensure that they are necessary, and that appropriate pricing is applied. SCHEDULE CONTROL Kimley-Horn recognizes that meeting your deadlines and staying within budget are critical to the success of a project—our depth of local staff combined with the ability to activate resources from other Kimley-Horn offices will ensure that we complete this project on time. Our first step in schedule control is to understand your vision for the project and then develop a realistic schedule to make that vision a reality. This step requires immediate and clear communication and is a critical step in partnering for a successful project. We will define the project requirements, understand potential obstacles to success, identify potential opportunities to achieve more within the same project, and create a project work plan that allows us to accomplish your goals efficiently. Prior to beginning work on any project, we will prepare a detailed project schedule and monitor it against actual project milestone completion dates. Project schedules are evaluated at different frequencies depending on the magnitude of the project. We use several different software packages, including Microsoft Project, to schedule our work. Schedule updates can also be sent in simple PDF formats to the project team throughout the life of a project. We can tailor our updates to the frequency you require. Paramount to the success of any project is a continued partnering throughout the project to adapt as necessary to unforeseen circumstances. We will include critical decision-making points in our work plans so the project team and the Village can agree upon the best course of action to keep projects on track. We know there will always be unexpected challenges unique to any given project, so it is critical to develop and follow an approach that controls what can be controlled while building in mechanisms for dealing with the unexpected. Coordination with the Utility Owners and building their design timeframes into the project schedule is important to keeping overhead to underground conversion projects on track. We conduct regular progress meetings with all of the utility owners in a joint setting to better coordinate the work and schedule so that the project can be delivered within the timeframe that the Village expects. When required, our team can accelerate work to meet a change in project schedule. This process is used frequently when workloads require extra personnel. It allows our team to be flexible and be able to react to all types of scheduling changes. Kimley-Horn is confident in its ability to monitor project schedules to meet the Village’s expectations and we have an exemplary record of performance. We are prepared to IWOP30001.2021o OverheadUtilityNorthPalmBeachVillageof Undergrounding 11 commit the necessary resources to ensure that your projects stay on schedule and within budget. VALUE ENGINEERING Kimley-Horn strives to provide continuous value engineering by focusing on better decisions, better information, better analysis, cost reductions, increased productivity, and accurate deliverables throughout all phases of the project. Value engineering is a key factor for developing successful projects that transition from study to design, and from design to construction. The challenges associated with each project task are solved creatively and effectively. Each step is reviewed by the most qualified professional to ensure a high level of value. Our experience in all facets of municipal work can be applied to this undergrounding project with positive results and added value to the Village of North Palm Beach. The goal of the Kimley-Horn team is to provide the Village of North Palm Beach with the most value throughout every aspect of the Undergrounding project. Our knowledge of local construction costs will allow you to accurately budget for upcoming capital projects. Based on recent projects bids, we have seen a rise in costs and adjust unit costs in our OPCs accordingly. We look at trends in unit pricing so we can help our clients project costs of future project phases accordingly. QUALITY ASSURANCE/QUALITY CONTROL (QA/QC) Quality is a keystone principle of Kimley-Horn. It is one of the key attributes that has enabled us to become one of the leading consulting firms in the country and it is absolutely essential to our continuing success. Our QA/QC manager, Kevin Schanen, P.E., will ensure our services provided for you meet our high standards of quality. Kimley-Horn’s QA/QC program is based on the philosophy that: Quality is achieved by adequate planning, coordination, training, supervision, and technical direction; proper definition of the job requirements and procedures; understanding the scope of services; and the use of appropriately skilled personnel performing work functions carefully. Quality is ensured through the careful checking, reviewing, and surveying of work activities by individuals who are not directly responsible for performing the initial efforts. Quality is controlled by assigning a manager to evaluate all work and procedures followed while providing the services. Quality is verified through independent reviews by a qualified staff member of the processes, procedures, documentation, supervision, technical direction, and staffing associated with the project development. Project quality is “built in,” not added on. Quality work is the direct result of careful, properly sequenced, and supervised production, and continuous checking of each work element for completion and correctness by the task leader and project manager. Kimley-Horn’s approach to managing projects is intended to ensure that your project not only meets the high-quality standards that you demand, but that it is also delivered on time and within budget. Our projects are managed by professionals registered in their respective disciplines of practice such as utility and electrical engineering, traffic operations, civil engineering, roadway design, landscape architecture, etc. Quality begins with the solid foundation of skills and experience that these professionals possess. Our staff have been firmly committed to providing top quality services since the firm began 54 years ago, and ultimately our people will be responsible for exceeding your expectations for quality. ENSURED Through careful quality control of work activities by parties not involved in the initial efforts KIMLEY-HORN QUALITY CONTROL IS ACHIEVED Through adequate planning, coordination, supervision and, technical direction CONTROLLED By assigning task managers to evaluate all work flow and procedures VERIFIED Through independent reviews by qualified staff IWOP30001.2021o OverheadUtilityNorthPalmBeachVillageof Undergrounding 12 APPROACH METHODOLOGY TO ACCOMPLISH IMPLEMENTATION Conversion of the entire Village will be a multi-year project that will need to consist of multiple phases to achieve ultimate completion. There are a variety of advantages to the Village and its residents by breaking up the project into phases that we will describe later in this RFQ response. In order to thoughtfully determine the most time and cost-efficient way to execute the program, we first need to break it down into its core components. We see the project being broken into the following core component activities: 1. Master Planning 2. Detailed Design 3. Construction The above activities are generally sequential, but design and construction of multiple phase areas can occur concurrently and will continue to occur throughout the duration of the project long after the planning phase is complete. The graphic below is intended to illustrate how these activities will progress, what major elements occur during each activity, and how the key component activities interact with each other. The design and construction phases above will repeat over a number of years as determined in the master planning process until the project is completed. A more detailed description of the three core component activities follows below. Master Planning To successfully execute a large Village-wide conversion project, the development of a detailed master plan is a must. Kimley-Horn has demonstrated our ability to develop realistic and achievable master plans in the Town of Palm Beach and Key Biscayne when we embarked on their programs to convert their entire municipalities. In Palm Beach, there are eight total phase areas with 15 sub-phase areas scheduled to be implemented over a ten-year period. Key-Biscayne is a smaller community with four phase areas scheduled to be completed over a four-year time period. The Palm Beach Master Plan has since been implemented with three sub-phase areas seeing construction completed and four additional sub-phase areas currently under construction. The eight remaining sub-phases are currently under design. Key-Biscayne has just kicked off the design program for the first phase of the work. We’ve developed a system to implement these large-scale complicated projects which we will apply in our master planning process for the Village of North Palm Beach. The following is a description of how we plan to approach the master planning process for this Project. Data Collection Public Involvement/Outreach Utility Provider Coordination Conceptual Design Easement Need Identification Assessment of Infrastructure Needs Assessment of Traffic Impacts Sequencing/Phasing Project Delivery Option Selection Public Involvement/Outreach Construction Documents Utility Owner Coordination Easement Acquisition Permitting Contractor Procurement Master Planning Master Planning Detailed Design Detailed Design ConstructionConstruction Public Involvement/Outreach Utility Provider Coordination Backbone Conduits and Support Infrastructure Cabling and Equipment Installation Switching and Service Cutover Aerial Demolition and Restoration IWOP30001.2021o OverheadUtilityNorthPalmBeachVillageof Undergrounding 13 Data Collection During the initial stage of the master plan process, we will focus efforts on collecting existing infrastructure information from FPL, AT&T, Comcast , and others as appropriate so we can gain a detailed understanding of the electric, telephone, and cable communications transmission and distribution system on a macro scale. This information will guide the major decisions on where feeders and trunk lines should be laid, help to identify opportunities to achieve efficiencies in system routing, and guide the development of phasing and sequencing for the program. We will also collect information regarding locations of existing street lighting currently attached to overhead utility poles. These lights will be removed as a part of the conversion process and will likely require replacement. We can assistance the Village in identifying impacted streetlight locations as well as determine suitable replacement lighting. Options include Village-owned and maintained lighting or street lighting designed, provided and installed by FPL under their LT-1 tariff. We will develop a plan of the entire Village using parcel data and geographic information contained in the Palm Beach County GIS database as well as with any information available from the Village. This plan will serve as the base map for the development of an overall existing overhead infrastructure plan, impacted street lighting plan, as well as other related mapping graphics which will be used as tools for phasing and sequencing development as well as cost and schedule estimating. Utility Owner Coordination During the master planning process, we will conduct regular coordination meetings with FPL, AT&T, Comcast, and the Village in order to efficiently exchange information and work through any issues. Regular meetings will also facilitate the development of conceptual phasing and sequencing for the new electrical, telephone, and cable systems that will be established during the master planning process. Regular coordination meetings like this with key stakeholders have been a key to success on many past large conversion projects. Additional stakeholders who will be included in this coordination process in addition to those listed above are as follows: Seacoast Utility Authority – For coordination of water main relocations that may be required to implement the program. Florida Public Utilities – For coordination of gas line relocations and/or replacement in conjunction with FPU’s plan to replace all uncoated steel gas lines. Florida Department of Transportation – For coordination of any work that must occur on state roads in the Village. Palm Beach County – For coordination of any work that must occur on County roads in the Village and coordination of any work in unincorporated areas that may need to occur to transition the new Underground system back to the existing overhead system. City of Palm Beach Gardens, Town of Lake Park – For coordination of any work in their municipal limits that may need to occur to transition the new Underground system back to the existing overhead system. Conceptual Design Criteria We will develop a design criteria document to be used as a basis of design throughout the project duration. This document will include specifications for Village supplied materials, such as conduit and pullboxes, and provide typical details and guidelines for conduit bundling, separation requirements, aboveground infrastructure preferred layout, restoration, landscaping, and preferred methods of construction for particular portions of the work (i.e. Horizontal Directional Drilling versus open cut). FPL Standard Light Fixture FPL Premium Acorn Fixture FPL Premium Lantern Fixture We are currently working with the Town of Palm Beach to replace over 200 streetlights that are impacted by their overhead to underground conversion program. IWOP30001.2021o OverheadUtilityNorthPalmBeachVillageof Undergrounding 14 Assessment of Infrastructure Needs Through the development of the master plan, Kimley-Horn will work in partnership with the Village staff to identify any public infrastructure needs that are outside of the overall overhead to underground conversion project. These projects will need to be coordinated with the undergrounding improvements and assessed to determine if efficiencies can be realized. The Village has the ability to realize considerable cost savings by performing necessary public infrastructure improvements like drainage, lighting, and roadway work in conjunction with the undergrounding improvements. These savings are generally related to the cost of mobilization and restoration as they would be shared between the undergrounding and the infrastructure improvement projects. This is a win-win situation for both the Village and their taxpayers. We understand additional communication and/or 5G providers may have the opportunity to join this conversion project. Kimley-Horn has prepared Broadband Infrastructure Assessments for other municipal communities and could do the same for the Village. The assessment process includes determining the Broadband needs and demands within the local community, the competition that currently exists, market interest from new providers for developing new infrastructure within the community, and any related costs for such development that may be expected to impact the conversion program. Assessment of Traffic Impacts Impacts to traffic during construction is one of the most important elements of the project to consider when developing the overall plan of improvements. Developing a solid Transportation Management strategy to implement during the course of the project will be vital to maintain a semblance of tranquility during the construction process. Kimley-Horn is one of the nation’s most respected transportation firms and we have developed countless transportation management plans for many of our projects across the state and nation as well as several Transportation Management Plans specifically for Undergrounding conversion projects. In cooperation with our engineering team and public involvement experts, we will develop a Transportation Management Plan for the various phases of the project that considers not only the underground conversion work, but also the work of other construction projects that are expected to occur throughout the course of the undergrounding program. Coordination with the Police and Fire Department will also be very important to make sure that response times are not compromised significantly throughout the course of the project. The Transportation Plan will help develop a balance between an accelerated construction schedule and the desire to minimize impacts to the community as a whole. FPL Vista switch FPL Capicitor bank Single phase transformers and AT&T/Comcast service pedestals IWOP30001.2021o OverheadUtilityNorthPalmBeachVillageof Undergrounding 15 Project Sequencing and Phasing Once we’ve collected information about the existing aerial infrastructure, we can develop a sequencing and phasing plan that breaks the Village into segments that can be constructed sequentially with a degree of overlap that minimizes both construction time and community impacts. The sequencing and phasing plan will be developed as a final step in the overall master planning process so that we can incorporate all of the input from the various stakeholders and the community combined with the engineering design requirements. Once the phasing and sequencing plan is determined, we can develop a conceptual opinion of probable construction cost for each phase of the project. This will help the Town establish project funding, pursue grants, and perform financial forecasting, budgeting, and planning over the life of the conversion program. Grant Identification and Assistance Now more than ever, identifying and securing funding is a high priority for many of our clients. Kimley-Horn has experience in the preparation of grants across a wide array of practice areas throughout the country. To get smarter about the “who, what, where, when, and how,” the firm has partnered with our clients in the development of grants and for accessibility, Grantsource, a Kimley-Horn grant resource tool. We plan to use the Grantsource tool to identify available grants that could be pursued to help fund this project. Available grants will be documented as part of the master planning process. Additionally, we have coordinated with financial consultants, grant administrators, assessment methodology consultants, and bond counselors related to project funding. We are prepared to do so on this project as well, however the Village chooses to fund the improvements. Project Delivery Options There are multiple project delivery methods available to the Town for this type of work. We propose to review multiple project delivery methods depending on the unique circumstances that exist within each phase of the overall program and the respective benefits that could be gained by the Village by employing one or more of those options. Through the master planning process, we may find that some phases of the project are fairly straight forward and not overly complicated. These phases may lend themselves well towards traditional design-bid-build project delivery. Other phases of the project may contain Village-needed infrastructure upgrades that cover a variety of construction fields. These types of projects may be more appropriate for the Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) method of project delivery. There may also be opportunities to consider Design-Build when this situation presents itself. We want to be open to considering all of these methods, when appropriate, and we will make recommendations to the Village on how we believe each phase of the project should be delivered as a part of the master planning process. Risk Assessment Every large infrastructure project comes with a degree of risk. It is important that these risks be identified, and strategies developed to mitigate these risks prior to launching into the project. We have performed such risk analyses on other programs and have developed successful mitigation strategies that are proven in their execution. For example, breaking the project into phases is a method of risk mitigation that can help avoid a whole host of issues that would otherwise be present if the project was designed and constructed in one single phase. This and many other project risks will be carefully evaluated in the master planning process so that the Village can proceed with execution of the program with confidence. Conceptual Opinion of Cost and Schedule There are opportunities to begin both the master planning process and some elements of detailed design concurrently. While the master planning process is being conducted, we believe that detailed design of more critical segments can begin early. For example, we understand the Village’s desire to redevelop the US1 corridor and that preliminary discussions have already been had with FPL about undergrounding the distribution system in this area. This will not only accelerate the project but will allow the community to see real progress on the overall program in an expedited manner. Within the first year, we expect to complete the master plan and potentially have the US 1 corridor ready to begin construction, should the Village agree that acceleration of this area is desired. This puts construction of the first project areas starting in the first half of 2022. Our team is familiar with the various grant and federal funding opportunities, which include the processes and evaluation requirements necessary to secure funding. With Kimley-Horn’s assistance, our Florida clients have received more than $166 million in grants and outside funding. We have developed a resource library of information on state and federal funding sources and will assist you in making the most of available resources. IWOP30001.2021o OverheadUtilityNorthPalmBeachVillageof Undergrounding 16 Once these areas are under construction, the design and construction teams would focus on getting these areas completed while beginning the detailed design of subsequent phases so they can continue construction in an efficient manner. This scenario repeats itself, in accordance with the order described in the master plan until the entire project is complete. A detailed schedule of all of these activities and how they interact with each other, along with our opinion of their respective costs to implement, will be developed during the master planning phase. Public Involvement/Outreach Program Our team will ensure citizens are involved and informed throughout all phases of the project. We can scale our services to what the Village feels is appropriate for the master plan phase of the program but you can be confident in our proven ability to communicate with the community in a variety of forms including in-person meetings, print media, websites, public forums, community groups, and more. We will coordinate community outreach to your residents during the master planning process. As this project goes through the planning phase, it will be important to solicit public input and hold community information meetings that will allow opportunities for project managers, engineers, and experts to be available to the public to hear their concerns, inform them on progress, and answer questions on a variety of topics. Regular update and information meetings can serve as the link between the community and the implementation team over the span of this project and alleviate concerns or issues as they come up. Community outreach is particularly important with these types of projects because they generally impact every property owner in the municipality in one way or another. Building community trust in the design and construction teams can be critical to the success of the overall program. Media Relations A high-profile project such as this will attract media coverage. We can make sure media inquiries are answered in a timely fashion and ensure the questions are answered by the right team member with the correct updates. Coordinated media releases and statements to the media will be sent as milestones are reached during project phase and we will work with the Village, so messages are factual and coordinated. Master Plan Summary The final master planning deliverable is expected to identify the following information: Project Goals Existing Overhead System Overview Conceptual Design Criteria Infrastructure Assessment Transportation Management Plan Phasing and Sequencing Grant Opportunities Project Delivery Methods Risk Assessment Overall Program Opinion of Schedule Overall Program Opinion of Probable Construction Costs Public Involvement/Outreach Program We will also prepare a presentation to the Village Council for ultimate adoption of the Master Plan. PROSPERITY FARMS ROAD BEFORE AND AFTER UNDERGROUNDING BEFORE AFTER IWOP30001.2021o OverheadUtilityNorthPalmBeachVillageof Undergrounding 17 Detailed Design Based on the Master Plan, we will commence the detailed design phase of the project. It has been our experience that no matter the size or complexity of any given task, careful consideration of all project issues, details, and goals of the Village at the onset of the detailed design phase is essential to the successful execution of the project that exceeds the Village’s expectations. To that end, Kimley-Horn will begin with a comprehensive team effort to work with the Village, utility owners, residents and the various other stakeholders during the design phase for each project area throughout the duration of the conversion program. In general, in order to minimize community impacts, we believe it is appropriate to design multiple project areas such that construction can commence from municipal boundary areas and move inward. This creates efficiencies in the number of temporary transition poles required to maintain grid integrity during the course of the program. The number of project areas under construction each year will be dictated by the sequencing plan developed during master planning, but our general approach is to balance the desire for construction expediency with the amount of disruption that is acceptable to the community at any one time. Conduit installation for these projects can be very disruptive and the design needs to be carefully thought through to minimize cost, schedule, and impacts to the community who could grow “construction weary” with too much disruption for too long. We have assembled a team of proven professionals to ensure that the project can be successfully executed. Under the overall leadership of Brett Johnson, P.E., we have assembled a team of individuals with extensive experience serving municipalities with conversion projects. These professionals understand how to serve municipal clients. Others may describe technical experience working directly for the utility owners, but the Kimley-Horn team understands how to design these projects keeping the interests of the municipality and property owners first and foremost. Based on our experience over the years performing this type of work on a large scale, here in Palm Beach County, no other consultant team has the institutional knowledge and history of delivering successful undergrounding conversion project designs than Kimley-Horn. Our same team of engineers will be involved in every step of the design and construction phases from beginning to end. This allows Village staff and other stakeholders to communicate their desires early in the design process and maintain a consistent point of communication throughout the project life, which eliminates surprises during final design and construction. Kimley-Horn is well versed in performing undergrounding projects through varying soil conditions (i.e. muck, rock, high water table, etc.) and various construction techniques. Additionally, Kimley-Horn has the capacity to develop construction plans for the undergrounding improvements in conjunction with any necessary Village infrastructure needs that were identified in the master planning process as opportunities for efficiency and cost savings if performed concurrently. We understand the need to be flexible throughout the design phase will be critical to the success of the project. Our final designs will be based on the master plan in general, but we will be open to change when the situation demands that change occur. Initial Survey and Record Data Research Kimley-Horn will coordinate and conduct project surveys, record drawing review, geotechnical investigations, and utility soft digs as required to gather vital information to be used during this phase of the project. Because much of the construction is below ground, this investigative information will be extremely valuable to obtain before detailed design begins and construction drawings are prepared. Determining the exact location for conduit runs within the right of way corridors early in the design phase of each area, based on careful consideration of the record drawings and utility soft digs, can simplify the design and avoid costly change orders during construction. Simultaneously with the surveying process, we will visit every property in the phase area to locate and document existing service entrances for communication and electrical services. This information must be provided to the utility owners in order for them to commence their designs. We’ll develop notification mailers to each address in the phase area so the community can expect our presence on their properties. Utility Owner Coordination We will continue holding regular coordination meetings with FPL, AT&T, Comcast, and the Village in order to efficiently exchange information and work through any issues related to the particular area being taken to final design. We’ve developed a unique process and working relationship with the electric and communication providers that has served us well on past conversion projects. Each utility owner will develop a preliminary design for submittal to Kimley-Horn for review. This will allow us to coordinate their designs with specific field conditions, available and procured easement locations, and make design recommendations to decrease costs and increase schedule efficiencies in the design. Once this coordination is completed, the FPL Binding Cost Estimate and invoice can be requested and developed. Communication system agreements and invoices generally are prepared after conduit has been installed in the field. Regular coordination meetings with other key stakeholders will be held as appropriate depending on how that individual stakeholder is affected by the work in the specific project area being designed. Easement Acquisition Once preliminary equipment locations are provided by FPL, our team will begin working on identifying available right of way to locate the equipment. Our preliminary review of property information for the Village indicates that many streets have wide rights of way that will allow for equipment placements that meet roadway setback criteria and will not require easement space. However, in locations where adequate right of way may not available, we will identify appropriate easement location alternatives to discuss with impacted property owners. The easement acquisition process typically occurs throughout the project design duration and can sometimes extend into the construction phase. Kimley-Horn has successfully negotiated hundreds of easements with property owners for undergrounding programs. All of which were voluntarily donated for the project. Our approach starts with listening to the concerns of the property owner, fully describing the benefits of the conversion process, and reasonably mitigating the impacts of the new equipment installation. It is important that a IWOP30001.2021o OverheadUtilityNorthPalmBeachVillageof Undergrounding 18 relationship of trust be built with the community throughout this process in order for it to be successful. Easements can also be procured through the quick-take eminent domain process, but most municipalities forego this process to avoid an adversarial relationship with the community and to significantly reduce project costs. Easement acquisition is one of the most difficult, time-consuming, and challenging aspects of any undergrounding program and it is important that your consultant can demonstrate proven success in this area. Maintenance of Traffic (MOT) Plan Using the Transportation Management Plan developed during the master planning process, we will develop Maintenance of Traffic (MOT) guidance that is tailored specifically to each phase of the project. This plan will be developed in collaboration with the local stakeholders and compared to other concurrent projects in the Village in an effort to minimize impacts to the community. We will discuss, receive input, and communicate this plan through the various public outreach mechanisms in place for the project, including the website, press releases, and scheduled public meetings. The plan will discuss items important to the Village such as: Coordination with the Police and Fire Departments Consideration of impacts to emergency response times Trash collection (both yard waste and solid waste) Interaction with other concurrent construction projects in Village Mail and package delivery Preferred detour routes Parking Impacts Identification the maximum limits of disturbed right of way at any given time during the project Ultimately, the MOT guidance will provide clear direction to the contractor on how traffic flow should be implemented throughout the project so they can develop their detailed plans in a manner that meets the needs of the project and the Village. The details of how many cones and barricades to use will still be left to the contractor but we will dictate the major elements and specific detour routes when needed based on community input, stakeholder coordination, and the infrastructure needs for each phase. This approach saves time during the shop drawing process and avoids costly change orders that could occur if such guidance is not clearly communicated to bidding contractors up front during the procurement process. Final Design Final design progresses concurrently with the easement acquisition process until the team is reasonably confident that all easements are in a position where they will ultimately be successfully procured. The final design can often be somewhat iterative as easement negotiations with property owners can alter the design along the way. Kimley- Horn prepares supplemental conduit and equipment location plans to accompany the schematic level designs received from the utility owners. The supplemental conduit plans will be used in conjunction with the FPL plans to install equipment and pull conductors. Most municipalities select the option where the municipal contractor installs all of the conduit and performs as much FPL work as is allowed by FPL. This allows the municipality to better control cost and schedule for the program. The communication providers will use their own forces to install their cabling and equipment within the conduits that are installed by the municipal contractor. It is towards the end of the design process where the Binding Cost Estimate is requested from FPL, bid plans and specifications are finalized, and the project is advertised to the contracting community for bidding. Permitting and Approvals Portions of the work will need to be permitted through several regulatory agencies. Kimley-Horn understands the potential impacts that permitting issues can have on a project and how to develop a plan to avoid such impacts. In addition to minimizing confusion with clear and concise permit documents, our staff is well versed in agency procedures and their expectations, enabling us to avoid delays and the revisions of submittals. Our local team in West Palm Beach team works closely with a variety of regulatory agencies on undergrounding projects. We have assembled a team of professionals who have a history of success in obtaining all types of permits required LIGHTHOUSE DRIVE BEFORE AND AFTER UNDERGROUNDING BEFORE AFTER IWOP30001.2021o OverheadUtilityNorthPalmBeachVillageof Undergrounding 19 for underground infrastructure work. The following is a list of permits depending on the type of work being proposed: FDOT Utility Permit – Required for any utilities that are to be installed in the FDOT right-of-way. Palm Beach County Right of Way and Utility Permits – Required for any utilities that are to be installed in the Palm Beach County right-of-way. Seacoast Utility Authority Approval – Required for any watermain or service relocations that need to occur. Additional approvals may be required for use of shared utility easements and proximity of new electric/communication infrastructure to existing pipelines. FDEP Water/Wastewater Permits – Required for any utility adjustments that may be required that are in excess of 100 linear feet in length FDEP ERP Permit – Required for any subaqueous cable crossings under regulated waters of the state. SFWMD Dewatering Permit – This permit is obtained by the contractor constructing the project. Village of North Palm Beach Building Permit – Building permits may be required for the conversion of non-residential services and service entrance modifications. Additionally, residential building permits may be needed if there are code deficiencies with the current residential service connection. Public Involvement/Outreach Community Relations We will implement neighborhood-specific community outreach to review the design components of the plan and the impact to the specific neighborhood. We will solicit resident input to help develop the best plan to meet project needs and timelines, taking into consideration property owner requests. Our Community Liaison will serve as a link between engineers, utility owners, Village and residents during the Detailed Design Phase. We will coordinate with Chuck Huff, the Special Project Director, Village Staff, Village Council, and Village residents and business owners to provide regular updates. We will seek involvement and send updates to community organizations, such as the chamber of commerce, homeowner’s associations, and other local groups identified during the Master Planning and Detailed Design processes. Communications We will manage and implement a communications plan during the Detailed Design Phase. Communications with residents through mail, phone, and email (where applicable) and on social media will provide updates on the Detail Design phase and solicit their input. It will include a project phone “Hot Line” and emails as well as a project website that provides updates, contact information, and FAQ’s page where residents can have questions answered. Media Relations Our Community Liaison can serve as a spokesperson for the project to the media. This will include making sure media inquiries are answered in a timely fashion and ensure the questions are answered by the right team member with the correct updates. Coordinated media releases and statements to the media will be sent as milestones are reached during project phase and we will work with the Village, so messages are factual and coordinated. The Public Involvement Plan will outline a process for providing opportunities for involvement by all interested and affected parties. The expected outcome of the participation will not always be consensus. Many planning teams suggest that they will build consensus, yet we seldom hear of success stories where all stakeholder groups are in full agreement with the entirety of an outcome. Instead, we propose a more realistic approach that seeks to secure “informed consent” from project participants. With the COVID-19 public health crisis ongoing and continuing uncertainty with respect to traditional in-person public involvement, our team will bring the Village of North Palm Beach extensive experience in leveraging digital platforms to inform, consult, and collaborate with the public and stakeholders. For more information about Kimley-Horn’s perspectives on digital public engagement, please visit: https://www.kimley-horn.com/digital-public- involvement/ IWOP30001.2021o OverheadUtilityNorthPalmBeachVillageof Undergrounding 20 Contractor Procurement No matter the delivery method that is chosen, Kimley-Horn understands the importance of being responsive during the contractor procurement process. Answering contractor questions and issuing clarifications or addenda in a timely manner during the procurement phase will allow us to deliver a successful construction project on time and within budget, thus avoiding navigating through a project riddled with disputes. We understand that the selection of the delivery method for the construction of the undergrounding program is one of the items in which the Village will seek advice from the Design Consultant. Our opinion is that a "one size fits all" approach may not be the best way to execute each individual project over the life of the program. Kimley-Horn has worked with many municipalities to deliver undergrounding projects under multiple procurement methods, including traditional design-bid- build, the procurement of quotes from pre-qualified contractors, and the Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) method. Kimley-Horn has also worked with other municipalities to develop Design-Build Criteria packages for the construction of major facilities. We propose that during the master planning process, we look at the individual phase areas in concert with the additional infrastructure needs that may be required by the Village that are outside of the undergrounding assessment and recommend a project delivery method that is appropriate for the particular area being constructed. We are prepared to assist the Village in administering the procurement process, including answering bidder questions, reviewing the contractor proposals, serving on selection committees, and providing the Village with a bid or GMP analysis as well as support direct negotiations with the contractor on each of the project areas as they are let for construction. We can then assist in assembling the construction contract, making presentations to Council, and any other related post- award services. On numerous occasions we have assisted municipal clients by providing specifications for long lead items in advance of design completion so that the Village take advantage of not only the time savings, which is critical to maintaining the seasonal construction schedule, but also the tax savings in the direct purchase of equipment. We are ready and able to assist the Village with the procurement of these items if it is determined to benefit the project budget or schedule . Construction Phase During the construction phase, you can be assured that you will continue to be served by the same Kimley-Horn professional staff who served you during the design phase. Unlike other firms that separate the construction phase team from the design team, our philosophy is to maintain the continuity of the design staff during construction. Because these individuals are the most familiar with the design of your project, there is no learning curve during its construction. Kimley-Horn’s professional staff has extensive experience in construction administration of complex undergrounding projects and will keep the contractor on task, on time, and within budget. Our experience will result in the delivery of a quality project that will make the Village and Kimley-Horn proud. Once the contractor is selected, we will immediately request that they submit their time and payment schedules for review. We will identify schedule conflicts, sequence issues, equipment delivery issues, and other factors that may affect the successful completion of the project and address those issues accordingly with the contractor prior to the start of work. Document Control will be established from the onset of the project. It is extremely important for project documentation to be properly filed and distributed to all necessary parties, so having an established program for this effort will prove to be very valuable to the project. We use a web-based program called ShareFile to store project documentation. We will use this program to share all of our field reports and photographs with Village staff on the project. This program allows authorized users with the Village to have continuous access to all project files during the course of the project. Individual user permissions can be managed to protect the integrity of the files and avoid accidental file mismanagement. We expect construction will consist of the following approach in each project area. There are a lot of details to be tended to in between these steps but this is the general process: 1. The Village's contractor will install the necessary underground conduits, pullboxes, and other necessary infrastructure. FPL will provide the Village's contractor with materials and equipment for installation while the Village's contractor will provide AT&T and Comcast conduit and pullbox materials according to their specifications. The Town of Palm Beach is realizing tax savings by direct purchasing all the communication conduits and pullboxes for their conversion program. IWOP30001.2021o OverheadUtilityNorthPalmBeachVillageof Undergrounding 21 2. The contractor will submit the conduit and equipment location as-built drawings to FPL, AT&T, and Comcast for review and approval. 3. AT&T and Comcast will review and approve the installed conduit infrastructure prior to their internal crews installing cable and equipment for the telephone and cable infrastructure. 4. FPL will review the installed electrical infrastructure in advance of the switching process to energize the new underground feeder, primary, switches and transformers. 5. Switching will then commence to energize the new underground system. This process is conducted directly by FPL. 6. Once switching is completed, the Village’s contractor can commence cutting individual property electric services over to the new underground system. They will also strip all service risers from the overhead poles at this time. AT&T and Comcast will also energize their systems and begin cutting over customers during this stage. 7. Once all services have been swapped, the existing overhead facilities can then be removed first by the communications providers and then by FPL. 8. At this time, any required site restoration can occur which includes repair of both public rights of ways and private property areas impacted by the pole removal process. If milling and resurfacing is desired (or required), we recommend that it occur at this time to avoid asphalt damage due to the cranes that are used during the pole removal process. Kimley-Horn’s deep understanding of how the undergrounding process is executed will provide the Village a great degree of confidence that we can coordinate the various activities required for successful implementation of the program. We understand that we will be serving as the Owner’s Representative during the Construction Phase of the project. We will work very hard to make sure your interests are kept first and foremost while performing our observations in the field. Because our engineers and field representatives are so well versed in the design, operations, and maintenance of municipal and utility infrastructure and facilities, we are able to quickly determine how field changes can affect the overall project schedule and/or future operations. This allows us to make any quick corrections to avoid a project heading down the wrong path and has contributed to our many recent successes on undergrounding projects that we have helped our clients implement. As each phase of the project nears substantial completion, we will develop the punchlist for the contractor to complete in advance of the utility owner reviews described above. We will follow up on the Punchlist items to be addressed until they are completed. We will work with the contractor to assemble the as-built drawings, warranties, and other pertinent closeout information relevant to the project. Once any project has been completed, the project files, both electronic and hard copy forms, will be assembled for delivery to the Village. Project Field Representative Our team is complemented with on-site project field representatives who will observe contractor operations. When a components is buried or otherwise hidden from view at the conclusion of the project, daily observation of construction is especially critical. Conduits, vaults, structural reinforcement, foundations, and internal components must be inspected prior to installation and comprehensively photographed for future reference. All of these activities will be documented in daily reports and photographs prepared and cataloged by our field representative. Any outstanding deviations will be brought to the Village’s and contractor’s attention as they are discovered so they can be resolved quickly, and construction disputes can be minimized. Reports will be uploaded to the project ShareFile site and can be downloaded by authorized users from any computer. Public Involvement/Outreach Community Relations A designated community liaison will be available to support the Special Project Director, Village residents, Village staff, Village Council, and other stakeholders as a link between the community and project team. The Community Liaison will be responsible for notifying residents during the construction phase of where construction will be occurring, expected length of time and what can be expected during the phase. Part of the community outreach will focus on providing all residents a way they can voice their concerns or During FPL’s review of our most recently completed undergrounding project phase area, Phase 3 North in Palm Beach, FPL identified ZERO punchlist items in their pre-energization walkthrough. This is almost unheard of and is a testament to the design and installation excellence achieved on this project. IWOP30001.2021o OverheadUtilityNorthPalmBeachVillageof Undergrounding 22 questions. As issues arise, the project manager and Village Staff will be notified so the appropriate representative or appropriate response can be provided to the resident. Communications It will be important to have an open communication process with residents, especially once the construction phase reaches individual neighborhoods. Through the use of various mediums including mail, phone, emails, field meetings, and press notices, residents will be informed of the project timeline and expectations. Communication will be setup to be responsive and current. We will coordinate the use of a project phone “Hot Line” and Email as well as a project website that provides updates, contact information and FAQ’s page where residents can have questions and concerns addressed. On past projects, we’ve held brief monthly public meetings in the field with the construction team where interested members of the public can receive a project update, voice concerns, and interact with the construction team. These “Coffee with the Crew” meetings have helped proactively address issues and build a strong report with the impacted community. Media Relations During the construction phase, our team will have a spokesperson for the project available to the media. This will include making sure media inquiries are answered in a timely fashion and ensure the questions are answered by the right team member. We can coordinate media releases, images and statements to the media as milestones are reached during project phase and work with the Village, so messages are up-to-date and accurate.

Below is a list of local municipalities where we are currently providing undergrounding services or have provided undergrounding services in the past. Please also refer to Section 4: Past Experience, for information about how to contact our client references regarding the services we have provided. Town of Palm Beach Village of Key Biscayne City of Miami City of Boynton Beach City of West Palm Beach City of Miami Lakes Town of Jupiter City of St. Pete Beach City of Fort Lauderdale City of Delray Beach City of Hollywood City of Miami Beach City of Lake Worth Beach City of Pompano Beach Our depth of experience with a variety of project types allows us to provide North Palm Beach with staff who understand local regulatory challenges and have strong relationships with key stakeholders. Kimley-Horn is leading one of the largest municipal undergrounding conversion projects in FPL’s service territory in the Town of Palm Beach. We’ve also completed many smaller neighborhood conversions in various communities. Below are just a few statistics that demonstrate our extensive experience with overhead to underground conversions: Over 98 miles of primary cable installed Over 460 transformers/switches installed Over 400 easements voluntarily secured Over 800 poles removed Because our local professionals have a proven track record working on similar undergrounding projects, in FPL’s service territory, there will be no learning curve to contend with. The Kimley-Horn team understands the challenges the Village faces and is ready to confront them head-on as a trusted advisor on this important project. The following projects are representative of our experience relating to the services sought under RFQ No. 2021-100: Town-Wide Undergrounding of Utilities Program, Palm Beach, FL Subsequent to a state of Florida mandate that FPL “storm harden” all vital infrastructure and utility lines statewide, resulting in the installation of taller, concrete electric poles, the Town of Palm Beach chose instead to convert all aerial electric, communication, and cable lines to an underground location. Kimley-Horn serves as program manager and prime consultant designing and permitting the underground conversion process in close coordination with FPL, AT&T and Comcast. Kimley-Horn first developed a master plan to outline the schedule, sequencing, phasing, management of traffic impacts, project delivery methods, data collection, public outreach, design criteria, and projected costs. At the same time, Kimley-Horn performed the detailed design of Phase 1 of the program, which is now complete. We have gone on to design and bring five other phase areas to construction. Kimley-Horn and the Town also performed planning to address Town infrastructure needs (stormwater, gas, water and sewer) to determine if any renovation or replacement should occur while the underground utility work is underway. The benefits of undergrounding these utilities include improved neighborhood aesthetics, increased service reliability, and increased levels of safety as the lines are no longer exposed. The entire program, which began in 2016, will convert 37 miles of overhead infrastructure to an underground location.

In August 2017, Kimley-Horn was selected to be the engineer for the Village’s undergrounding program to relocate overhead utilities to an underground location. The design and construction of the undergrounding program is anticipated to take multiple years to complete. The underground program will be broken into multiple phases that can be constructed on an annual basis. In order to balance potentially competing priorities such as cost, project duration, traffic impacts for this large-scale project, development of a Master Plan was completed in order to evaluate these priorities ahead of any detailed design of any single undergrounding phase. Design of Phase 1 of the program is about to proceed this year. The entire program, which began in 2018, will convert nearly 15 miles of overhead infrastructure to an underground location.

BEFORE AFTER IWOP30001.2021o OverheadUtilityNorthPalmBeachVillageof Undergrounding 78 Miami DDA Utility Undergrounding Feasibility Assessment, Miami, FL Kimley-Horn was selected to be the engineer for the Miami DDA’s Utility Undergrounding Feasibility Assessment. The Assessment investigates the extent of existing overhead facilities within the Miami DDA’s boundaries and each of its Districts, the type of existing facilities, and provides information on the cost, schedule, funding mechanisms, and next steps for use in evaluating future projects or policies. The purpose of the feasibility analysis is to provide information that will help policymakers determine whether such a conversion would be feasible given current anticipated costs and construction impacts. A detailed opinion of probable costs for each District and the entire DDA was developed based upon extensive field data collection and conversion of existing utility information into a query-able GIS dataset. This dataset was utilized to evaluate the total length and quantity of each utility, roadway impacts, and other critical information which were included in the report that allows for visualization of the extent of existing overhead facilities. Agency Contact: Patrice G.

Gadsden Street Tallahassee, FL 32301 RE: Engineering Excellence Award Entry: Town of Palm Beach Overhead to Underground Utility Conversion Project - Phase 1 North Dear 2019 ACEC Engineering Award Judges: Few projects initiated by the Town of Palm Beach will have the lasting positive impact as our Town-wide Undergrounding Program. Internationally known for tranquil beaches, top level shopping, resorts and homes, Palm Beach faces the yearly risk of utility disruption from hurricanes and tropical storms. With a vision of providing safety, reliability and aesthetic enhancements, the Town embarked on a bold plan to convert all existing overhead utilities in our barrier island community to an underground location. By developing a Town- wide program to convert all electric, telephone, and cable television lines to an underground location, a comprehensive plan was put into action to create a more resilient communit5,. While the results of many engineering projects that install underground utilities cannot physically be seen, this is a project where one of the desired outcomes is to eliminate the finished project from public view. A major benefit of the undergrounding project has been the aesthetic improvements brought by eliminating the utility lines and poles near homes and businesses. The visual impact to our community has been a welcomed improvement. This has not been an easy project with cost and construction impacts being objections from some of our property owners and residents. But through a dedicated partnership with Town officials, residents, and a skilled and trusted engineering consulting team, we have successfully completed the first phase of the project. Several of those who were skeptical of the project have now become advocates as they witnessed the success that was achieved through the careful planning and implementation. As the Town Engineer for Palm Beach, I am pleased to support the consultant's submission of the Phase 1 North Overhead to Underground Conversion Project for a 2019 ACEC Engineering Excellence Award. The consultant provided the Town with exceptional engineering services for the planning, design, and implementation of the project. We are proud of the entire project team, including Town staff, elected officials, Task Force members, the consultant team, the construction team, and the utility owners who partnered together to implement the first phase of this program, which is of utmost importance to the Town. The result of this collaboration is a safer, more reliable, and aesthetically pleasing electric and communications grid that will increase our resil iency and be enjoyed by our community for decades to come.

We understand this project will seek to underground overhead utility lines, excluding the FPL transmission lines and will be better defined relative to phasing and schedules as information is gathered to provide the appropriate basis for such decisions. We have had several discussions with the staff and residents over the past years concerning undergrounding in phases which is the most common approach. However, some municipalities have elected to execute one phase to include the entire municipality. In our discussions over the years, and in our experience with other projects, we feel that this project is best approached in phases. However, we are flexible to the needs and the desires of the Village. The following represents a typical path from funding to project completion, should all these steps be needed. When completed in phases, the feasibility study typically covers the entire project. Based on the needs of the Village, we can provide the specific services required. We have acted as a turnkey provider for assessment methodologies, survey services, and landscape services, among others, on some projects and have coordinated the contracting of such services directly with the municipality in other projects. After the hurricanes of 2004 and 2005, FPL developed a plan to improve the ability of their facilities to withstand tropical storms. One of the initiatives was to allow the installation of underground facilities within street right-of-ways with certain obligations to be undertaken by the municipality. This provision has been utilized in all our past projects and is an option in your project. We will provide input and the Village will select the methods and options they feel is best for the Village. To obtain the best results, the undergrounding consultant needs to have technical knowledge of the overhead utility engineering practices and policies, the understanding of the community’s needs and community harmony, and the construction experience to address issues when they arise. Our firm has these qualities. Our firm eliminates costs associated with utility designs such as including components for future utility company flexibility at the Village’s expense, or including maintenance work on existing underground facilities. Brannon and Gillespie has identified and corrected errors in FPL charges on almost all the projects we have undertaken. The challenges faced today are significant due to changes in FPL personnel experience levels, and changes in the communications infrastructure evolution into fiber optics. We use our technical knowledge to eliminate delays in developing plan changes when issues arise, provide professional engineering services when needed, and always act as the municipality’s advocate. Although the process varies from municipality to municipality, the typical approach utilized in undergrounding overhead electric power and communications utility facilities are as follows. Before and After Undergrounding on a Typical Street RFQ 2021-100, Overhead Utility Undergrounding Project Management and Engineering Consulting | 7 Project Approach and Methodology Feasibility Study to Support Approval Acquisition The first step in these projects is typically to produce a feasibility study to identify any potential issues, develop an opinion of the cost, and to develop a schedule plan. This generally requires a conceptual conversion work plan to be developed and a detailed opinion of cost to be generated. These are typically prepared by consultants who have both the knowledge of the utility company engineering practices and company policies, as well as experience contracting the construction of such projects. Where there is a question as to the specific scope of work to be undertaken, several options may be evaluated before a decisions is reached. Our experience has covered the span from undergrounding all the facilities within a municipalities limits to focusing on a single main road right-of-way. Project Approvals and Funding The second step involves the developing of funding options and sharing of information with the involved property owners and the acquisition of their approval to proceed when bonds are to be issued and a referendum or similar process is needed. Using the information provided by the feasibility study, we will work with the municipality to develop funding options.We have worked with multiple Bond Counsel firms to secure funding sources and rates. Typically, a number of Town Hall meetings and meetings with interested groups, such as civic associations, will be required to ensure voters are informed. We have also found utility tax options and other funding sources to be useful for some municipalities. Small projects may be handled in a simpler manner, but larger projects typically always depend on the voter’s approval to move forward. We also have experience with legal and financial consultants to support assessment methodology development efforts, if required. We have the technical ability to address the application of credit in the assessment methodology where property owners have paid for partial underground of lines prior to the project. The Village may wish to implement an online information dashboard and data portal where residents can see the costs for each property and the status of the project. Acquisition of Survey and Existing Facilities Data The third step would typically involve coordination with the impacted utilities to develop detailed construction plans and binding cost estimates. The services of a surveyor are necessary to obtain a detailed survey of the proposed conversion area and is typically the first action needed. Information on existing underground utilities and utility easements from public records would typically be secured. The consolidation of these separate utility plans by the municipality’s undergrounding consultant into a single consolidated conversion plan is highly beneficial to reduce project cost and impact on the community. The conversion of overhead utility service lines to all involved residential and non-residential customers will typically be included in the project scope. FPL non- residential customer conversions may require building department permits and plans sealed by a professional engineer. Typically the municipality includes the conversion of non-residential and multi-family electrical services in the project budget, as FPL does not include the cost of the conversion of these service lines. In areas where overhead street light facilities exist on the utility poles, plans would typically be needed for an alternate street light system as the utility poles will be removed. Options are typically for utility provided facilities or for municipality provided facilities. FDOT state road operational funding for lighting is typically involved on state roads and is typically forwarded to the municipality who installs the facilities and pays the operating costs. Approach to the Project | 2 RFQ 2021-100, Overhead Utility Undergrounding Project Management and Engineering Consulting | 8 Development of Project Construction Documents Brannon & Gillespie will work with FPL, AT&T, Comcast, and other parties having facilities on the overhead pole lines to secure their requirements. The FPL plans will be required initially to identify the locations of certain equipment that the communications companies will need. FPL will provide conceptual plans which Brannon & Gillespie will review for easement availability, cost efficiency, and aesthetics. Electrical tariffs issued from the Florida Public Service Commission do not allow the inclusion of operational, maintenance, and future flexibility costs to be passed on to the applicant in these projects. Once we complete our review and agreement with the FPL plans, FPL will create a binding cost estimate which the Village indicating the total the Village will pay for the FPL portion of the conversion. The estimates will be in two parts with one providing for FPL to install the underground facilities and one with the Village installing the FPL facilities. As FPL would not dedicate crews to this work and would not install communications conduits or non-residential service lines, it is almost always in the best interest of the municipality to install the FPL underground facilities. Typically, the communications companies will provide their conduit requirements in draft form and Brannon & Gillespie will create the necessary detailed construction drawings for the conduit installation. After the conduits are installed, Comcast and AT&T will install their cables and equipment. AT&T union rules prohibit any party who is not an AT&T union employee from installing cable in a conduit. Comcast labor costs are typically cheaper than the municipality’s electrical construction contractor rates and it is typically more cost effective for Comcast to install their cable and equipment. As a result of the hurricanes in 2004 and 2005, FPL produced a program called Storm Secure to improve the electrical utility distribution’s resistance to tropical storm damage. Part of this program was to promote underground facilities. One aspect of that initiative was to allow the installation of underground electric lines and equipment within street right-of-ways. The FPL ROW terms and conditions of this ROW Agreement were negotiated between Brannon & Gillespie and FPL in 2007 while we were working on the Jupiter Island project. All municipal undergrounding projects we have been involved in have utilized this agreement. The technical requirements for the separation from travel lanes and driveways, for FPL clear work spaces, and for roadway setbacks and site triangles require that the design reviewer be familiar with these aspects and the options when conflicts arise. Procurement of Construction Services Step four typically involves the acquisition of contract construction services from landscapers and underground utility contractors. Detailed requirements are needed to ensure the community is protected from unnecessary behaviors which would be disruptive or unsightly in addition to efficiently accomplishing the work. The development of construction contracts is both time consuming and tedious, but is absolutely necessary to accomplish the work in a controlled and cost effective manner. The construction will typically include the conversion of all facilities on the poles and the removal of all the utility poles. Underground main power lines will be installed in a loop configuration to provide for quick power restoration should a cable fail or be damaged. Electric service restoration on a loop configured system does not require the failed cable to be repaired to restore service to the customers. Our firm typically coordinates with local staff to produce RFP documents, and to review and evaluate responses. The Construction Process Step five will execute the construction of the underground facilities. It has been our experience that undertaking the construction of all of the FPL underground facilities as provided for in the utility tariffs filed with the Florida Public Service Commission results in the lowest cost and least disruption of community harmony. Conduits and splice boxes for communications lines will be installed by the municipality’s contractors. Equipment locations will be cleared of vegetation and obstructions in advance. Typically, most underground conduits will be installed via directional boring techniques to minimize disruption to the community. After conduit is installed, the municipality’s contractor would typically install the FPL underground cable and equipment. Brannon & Gillespie would monitor the construction progress, review monthly contractor payment requests, and recommend payment as appropriate. Upon completing the FPL conversion, the communications utilities, typically the cable TV company and Approach to the Project | 2 RFQ 2021-100, Overhead Utility Undergrounding Project Management and Engineering Consulting | 9 the telephone company would be notified to begin their cable installation and conversion work. The last step for the communications companies is typically to remove their lines from the utility poles. When the communications work is done, FPL crews will remove the overhead FPL lines and the utility poles. Upon completion of all the utility work, the municipality’s landscape contractors are brought in to perform site landscape restoration and landscape installations as needed for equipment shielding. Construction Completion Process Step six. As-built surveys, as-built construction drawings, final payment of contract retainage, and other record documentation and necessary project follow-up will happen in the background. From the community’s view, the project is complete, the vegetation is growing, and the improved reliability being enjoyed. Specific Approach Points In response to some of the specific requirements noted in Part II of the RFQ, we offer the following. 1. Concerning the provision of information to Village personnel and the public, Brannon & Gillespie typically provide informational meetings to citizen groups, civic clubs, commissions, and others to support needs such as referendums, project status, or issues and remedies occurring during the project. Brannon & Gillespie will provide these services on this project. 2. Brannon & Gillespie will interface with the public and Village staff as needed to address issues, secure easements, promote community harmony, or any other purpose the Village may request. 3. Brannon & Gillespie have provided survey services via sub consultants on a majority of their previous project and would be happy to provide survey services or to provide coordination for survey services contracted by the Village as they may desire. 4. Brannon & Gillespie typically prepare supplemental plans for the installation of all conduit facilities due to the lack of detail shown in utility plans. Contractors typically utilize our supplemental plans to install the conduit facilities of all the involved utilities as that work is the most costly aspect of a project. A major strength that Brannon & Gillespie has is our knowledge of engineering designs and costs, and the ability to bring changes to the utility designs to capture those savings, and factor the Village’s desires into the final design. We provide project schedules and opinions of cost. We typically produce easement documents including easement area legal descriptions and sketches. 5. Our firm always works with the utilities directly to secure utility plans to information needed for us to develop conduit installation plans. We work through Darrell Davis and his assigned project engineer for all AT&T aspects. We work through Jeannine McEnroe and her engineer/construction coordinator Miya Fisher for all Comcast aspects. If we encounter issue with third party facilities, such as Verizon or Hotwire, traffic control communications lines, or other foreign pole attachments, we will find those owners and coordinate their relocation. Utility coordination will, among other things, address the design cost efficiencies, termination configurations, equipment selections, operational concerns, safety, and aesthetics. 6. We typically produce all easement documents, work with owners to address and resolve concerns, secure the execution of the easement, and have the instruments recorded in the county public records. Our understanding of the facilities and the flexibilities that will be acceptable to the utilities allows us to work with property owners to find solutions that work for both the utility and the property owner. 7. In the process of construction services procurement, we normally provide the scope of work for the RFP. The Village would typically provide their standard terms and conditions. We promote the development of an evaluation committee and participate in the reference verifications and rating. The criteria included in the Approach to the Project | 2 RFQ 2021-100, Overhead Utility Undergrounding Project Management and Engineering Consulting | 10 RFQ is very similar to those we use except for the ratings based on the responses of the references which we typically include for construction RFP proposal evaluations. 8. Contracts for the installation of the underground facilities have generally been lump sum contracts with unit pricing for change order pricing. This method has provided incentives for the contractor to find the most cost effective means to get the work done. All FPL materials will be provided by FPL. The Village’s contractor will purchase the conduit and fittings for the communications company’s facilities. The contractor will provide sod and landscaping restoration to restore damaged areas back to original condition or better. Our contracts provide performance requirements that address site conditions, crew behavior, work hours, responsibility for respective utility company acceptance of the installed facilities, etc. We typically have no change orders as our contract are clear on what is expected in the scope of work. However, we are open and experienced in unit contracting, as well as time and material contracting. 9. We will monitor and oversee the construction activities however, we do not supervise the contractor due to legal implications. Frequently, we have offered information on what others have done in similar situations which has been appreciated, but we do not tell the contractor how to do his work. Our contracts specify crew behavior, equipment on site, material management, work acceptance, management of traffic, time to complete, etc. Any violation of the contract requirements will be brought to their attention and addressed. 10. In a lump sum project, contractors typically submit draw requests monthly based on work completed. Brannon Gillespie will use detailed spreadsheets to track the installation of feet of conduit, cables, transformers, switches, service conversions, and any other significant items a project may include. Contractor bids are broken down by each category and a value is assigned to each item. When a run of conduit is completed, or a transformer is installed, etc., an associated draw amount is earned and the date paid is recorder in the spreadsheet system. This system has been very effective and provides a detailed record on what has been paid and when. 11. Acting as the “Owner’s Representative” has been the typical role our company has had in past projects. 12. All our projects typically have periodic status meetings to discuss progress, future work plans, and issues encountered or foreseen. Meetings during the formation of a project may be monthly, bi-weekly, or weekly as needed to fit the current work. During the time when the surveyor is doing his work we may hold monthly meetings or bi-weekly meetings During the Village contractor’s construction activity, we hold meetings weekly. Typically, construction updates are made to the published schedule to ensure residents have information on when crews will be in their area, or to address issues or concerns in a timely manner. Meetings will be held regularly at intervals suited to the work being undertaken at the time and the approval of Village management. 13. As previously indicated, we will use detailed spreadsheets to track the installation of feet of conduit, cables, transformers, switches, service conversions, and any other significant items a project may include. Contractor bids are broken down by each category and a value is assigned to each item. When a run of conduit is completed, or a transformer is installed an associated draw amount is earned and the date paid is recorder in the spread sheet system. This system has been very effective and provides a detailed record on what has been paid and when. 14. Records will be maintained per engineering standards, accounting standards, and the Village’s standards. Records will be subject to public records laws and timely delivery will be mandatory if requests are received. Reasonable costs to deliver may apply per statutes. 15. Typically, we identify vegetation removal requirements and have a landscape contractor remove the materials prior to the construction contractor beginning work at that location. Any other landscape restoration required as a result of the contractor’s work will be restored back to original condition or better by the contractor with Approach to the Project | 2 RFQ 2021-100, Overhead Utility Undergrounding Project Management and Engineering Consulting | 11 the same materials in the same quantities and sizes. 16. Many previous contracts have provided for us to provide additional services such as financial consultants for assessment, methodology development, landscaping services, survey services, title searches, ground penetrating radar (GPR) services, and LiDAR Mapping, to name a few. Those additional services are discussed and agreed to in writing as to costs and timing in advance of such work being undertaken. Quality Assurance and Value Engineering Typically, our firm has significantly reduced the cost of undergrounding projects by reviewing/revising utility engineering designs, coordinating the construction of the power and communications facilities, and resolving issues discovered during construction with solutions acceptable to the utilities without waiting for utility engineers to analyze the issue. Please ask our references. Our firm focuses on providing optimal results at minimum costs for our clients. Through the elimination of unnecessary utility costs, the consolidation of all utility conduit installations, the creation of clear construction specifications, and the competitive bidding process, we are typically able to significantly reduce our client’s costs and construction durations. Innovative Concepts and Recommendations Brannon & Gillespie has developed a number of methods to improve these projects. Providing a one stop shop to define easement requirements, secure property ownership information, prepare easement documents with execution instructions, and meeting with owners to make adjustments and resolve concerns has been highly effective. Our supplemental conduit plans are the preferred plan set that the contractors rely on as they detail locations, easement layouts, and existing underground obstructions. These things do not appear on the FPL plans or the communications plans. Another tool we use is our contractor draw spreadsheet. The contractors have a straight forward way to show work associated with the current draw request, work previously paid for, and remaining work. In addition, our experience is often called on when contractors encounter situations that are not normal. We typically have seen the situation before and can communicate what was done on another project that had a similar situation. We get a lot of “that will work” comments back from the contractors. Workload and Availability During the Feasibility Phase, it is critical to complete the work as soon as possible. Brannon & Gillespie would plan to apply 40% to 50% of the Project Manager’s time and 25% of Alan Boaz’s time to this project during the feasibility phase. Additional time will be made available if needed. Brannon & Gillespie is winding down the other projects currently under contract. The City of Hollywood undergrounding is 65% complete and Stuart is a small project with the design complete and cost estimates substantially complete. We are completing Longboat Key plans for town-wide fiber optics and street lighting and are 75% complete; Longboat Key should be complete by the middle of March. Brannon & Gillespie will not be engaging in any new projects prior to the completion of the construction phase of this project. The North Palm Beach project will be our top priority.

I notified FPL and the revised cost was $977K.Stuart – A Cost estimate was issued 6 months ago for an undergrounding project requesting a payment of $100K. After requesting clarifications on specific aspects, and four revisions, the proper cost delivered last month was $33K.ALL Projects – Field ChangesThese are just a few of the issues we face. This is not the fault of the FPL employees, but is the result of the experienced personnel retiring and the deficiencies in FPL’s training and available mentors.

The playground at Lakeside park will be getting some new replacement parts, new sign, rust treatment, painting parts, additional piece of equipment and new fencing. This is a CIP project that will go to Council for final approval. The Friends of Lakeside are requesting a tree inside the playground area as well for some shade. The FRDAP grants were both approved for the Community Center playground and the basketball courts at Osborne Park. Both grants are a no match $50,000. Stephen is meeting with playground companies to get some costs and renderings done. He will bring to the Recreation board to discuss. Stephen is also meeting with some paving companies to discuss pricing for the basketball courts. The Anchorage Park playground piece that was removed recently will be replaced soon. The big dog park will close in the end of May so they can replace sod. We will open the new dog park at this time. The new dog park will have one bench inside right now and a doggie bag container installed on the outside of the fence. Stephen updated the Board on upcoming special events (with COVID restrictions). Our next event will be a Movie night at Osborne Park on Saturday, May 15th. We are teaming up with North Palm Beach baseball to do a baseball theme movie and invite residents and all the teams. Kona Ice will be there as well that night. The 4th of July fireworks will be held as scheduled. Seating will be around the country club and certain areas on the golf course. Farmers Table will have a members only special viewing area as well as other F&B options for all patrons.

Other events upcoming will be Touch a Truck in beginning of October and Links 5K Ghost run on October 30th. Stephen updated the Board on recreation programing. Youth basketball didn’t end up getting enough kids signed up for a league. The top complaint that we had was because parents had to wear masks inside the gym but that is currently an emergency order so we don’t have control over that. We ended up partnering with Perseverance Basketball group which brought in their own coaches for clinics and pick-up games on Monday and Wednesday nights for ages 6-14. We had a total of 45 kids that still continued with this basketball program. We are currently taking enrollment for our Teen Basketball for ages 15-17 which is set to begin in June. Our Mini Basketball program for ages 3-5 is set to finish up next week. We had 14 kids for our Monday class and 7 kids for our Tuesday class this season. The gymnasium will be closed during the day starting in June for Summer Camp. Summer camp registration will start on June 7th for Week 1 and the first week of camp will start on June 21st. Our camp will be open to residents only and we will take 30 kids per week. We have been getting a lot of calls from PBG residents because they are not offering summer camp this year. Bill is set for his next bus trip on May 21st which is a 3-day weekend in Key West. The bus is full with 16 residents. We are looking at having a full bus starting in June. We are requiring masks on the bus ride only. All trips have been full with residents following COVID protocols on the bus. Stephen stated that the Dry Storage Project will presented to Council on Thursday, May 27th. NEW BUSINESS: Stephen asked the board for their thoughts on adding some fencing to Lakeside Park entrance and having the orange cones removed. He showed the board a picture of some fencing that another resident had sent him requesting to look at. OLD BUSINESS: Stephen gave the board an update on the Needs Assessment. o The survey is complete and is currently online to view o Residents can find the link on the website and it has been posted a social media every week. Ed also sent text alerts to residents on the communication list o It was listed on the newsletter and Community Center marquee BOARD MEMBER COMMENTS: Paul Beach asked if we checked with Big D paving about the work that needs to be done at Osborne Park basketball courts. They would be able to take another look at the courts. Stephen mentioned that he was in contact with 2 different companies about getting quotes for the renovation of the courts. Mia St. John asked about the Perseverance Basketball group and if we would consider using them in the future. Stephen stated that they are doing a great job so far and it would be nice using their coaches for clinics in the future. Mia also asked that since we switched around the youth basketball and flag football season if that was the reason for low youth basketball numbers. Stephen commented that he didn’t think so but it has been a crazy year with a lot of sports seasons getting pushed around due to COVID. We would be able to get a better handle on it next season. Paul Beach discussed a different option to the Lakeside Park fencing. He suggested a de curb of 6” in front of the park instead of fencing. Bob Bell suggested possibly a white picket fence or the wood split fencing that we currently have at all our parks. Chris Cantwell asked about the bank parking lot that used to be at the corner of Lighthouse Drive and US1. He suggested that we talk to the new owners about using that parking lot on the weekend to direct people from Lakeside park to that parking lot. ADJOURNMENT: Chris Cantwell made a motion to adjourn the meeting; seconded by Don Grill. Motion passed 6-0. Meeting adjourned at 7:30 PM.
