Summary Explanation/Background
THE AVIATION DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDS APPROVAL OF THE ABOVE MOTION.
This action amends the current Agreement between the County and Ricondo to add an additional one-year renewal period through October 5, 2021, for continued consultant services at FLL and HWO.
The Office of Economic and Small Business Development (“OESBD”) established a Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (“DBE”) goal of 10% for this project. Ricondo committed to 15% DBE participation. To date, Ricondo has been paid $4,554,979 and has paid DBE firms $888,258 for 19.50% participation. The OESBD Memorandum will be submitted to the Board prior to its consideration of this action.
On October 6, 2015 (Item No. 36), the Broward County Board of County Commissioners (“Board”) approved the Agreement between the County and Ricondo for Airport Master Plan Update Consultant Services, in the total not-to-exceed amount of $4,290,603, which included a lump sum amount of $3,990,603 for basic services and $300,000 for optional services.
On June 5, 2018 (Item No. 3), the Board approved the First Amendment to the Agreement for additional funding to increase the optional services amount from $300,000 to $842,395, and increased the total maximum not-to-exceed Agreement amount from $4,290,603 to $4,832,998.
The proposed Second Amendment provides for continued consultant services at FLL and HWO, which includes, but is not limited to, general continued master planning support, air service and passenger forecasting, and financial and economic evaluations. Due to the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic, continued consultant services are needed at FLL and HWO. These consultant services will provide economic and development evaluations of the Master Plan Update (“MPU”) program due to the fluctuations in the market conditions associated with COVID-19. Additionally, the continued consultant services will provide evaluations regarding air service needs and the timing of future facility requirements to support the MPU program.
Approval of the proposed Second Amendment adds an additional one-year renewal period, which will extend the term of the Agreement through October 5, 2021, and authorizes the Director of Aviation to exercise this option to renew by written notice of renewal to Ricondo, for additional funding to increase the optional services amount by $750,000, increasing optional services from $842,395 to $1,592,395, and increasing the total maximum not-to-exceed Agreement amount to $5,582,998.
At time of submission of this Board action, the proposed Second Amendment had not been executed. The signature pages for the amendment will be submitted to the Board prior to its consideration of this action. The proposed Second Amendment has been reviewed by the Office of the County Attorney.
