MEMORANDUM
TO: City Commission
FROM: Susan Grant, City Manag-���' ,1
BY: Antonio F. Tomei, Capital Proj-cts Manager AM
THRU: Joseph S. Kroll, Public Works& Transportation Director
DATE: May 29, 2018 /U7
SUBJECT: NE 183`" Street Seawall Restoration - Change Order Number 2
June 12, 2018 City Commission Meeting Agenda Item 2018-
Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached Resolution approving Change
Order Number 2 in the amount of$394,829.42 as it pertains to the above referenced project. The
change order amount will be funded by Budget Line item Number 410-5401-538-6306.
Background
To address additional work costs due to unforeseen conditions and consequently material
quantity overruns, the following additional construction costs must be incorporated into the
contract. I have enclosed a breakdown of itemized additional costs documenting the reasons for
each item listed as outlined and provided on the enclosed recommendation correspondence from
the City's Engineering Consultant, Craven Thompson &Associates, Inc.
Please note Item 101, $309,000. This represents 78% of the total change order amount and can
be directly attributed to the following:
1. The forecast concrete amount on the engineering drawings to repair piles and caps was
outlined to be 330CF. While performing these repairs with initial tasks of chipping through
deteriorated re-bar and concrete, much more deteriorated concrete than outlined was
exposed. Consequently, through regular visits to the site, the structural engineer
confirmed the additional repair work needed.
2. The cap on the easternmost portion of the seawall had a different design than the rest. At
this location, the current state of this wall required the full demolition and replacement of
caps and piles further increasing the amount of concrete and reinforcing bars to make
proper repairs. This too was confirmed by the structural engineer through site visits.
Therefore, the amount of concrete needed to make repairs was increased to 742CF, more than
double what was originally forecast. Keep in mind that this seawall was constructed in the early
70's, was in worse condition than anticipated and it is extremely difficult to determine the actual
extent of repairs needed because deterioration of the wall is not visible within the concrete nor
under water.
I have reviewed proposed change order 2 in the amount of $394,829.42 and recommend
approval. All additional construction costs have also been reviewed and approved by the City's
Engineering and Structural consultants.
Cost Breakdown
Original Contract Amount - $1,043,660.00
Change Order 1 - $16,870.74 (enclosed)
Change Order 2 - $394,829.42
Total Contract Amount-$1,455,360.16
Construction Time Frame
Original Contract Completion Date—6/5/18
Revised Final Completion Date (75 calendar days included in Change Order 2)—8/19/18
Additionally, please be aware that the City has received approval of a Local Funding Initiative
Request from the Florida Senate in the amount of $200,000 for this project. However, processing
of these monies to the City does not commence until the State's FY commences, July 1, 2018. It
will be done through the Florida Department of Environmental Protection and at present time, I do
not expect the monies to be provided to the City until late 2018.
If you have any questions or need any additional information, please feel free to contact me.

CHANGE ORDER NO.2
CT&A PROJECT NO. 01-0103.212
Dear Mr.Tomei:
CRAVEN THOMPSON Kiewit Infrastructure has submitted Change Order No. 2 for additional work,
due to unforeseen conditions and quantity overruns. We have reviewed the
attached documentation from Kiewit Infrastructure and offer the following:
Item 101 — Full Depth Concrete Cap Replacement — The concrete cap
replacement includes additional rebar to splice the cap, due to deterioration
of the existing rebar; with this deterioration of rebar, including additional
&ASSOCIATES INC. concrete cap replacement for a total increase is for$309,000.00.
Engineers
Planners Item 105—Pile Reinforcing—Based on the deterioration of the existing rebar
Surveyors after removal of the concrete, it was determined in the field that the
Landscape Architects additional rebar be spliced with full size rebar. This is a total increase to the
contract of$2,400.00.
Item 106 — Pile Concrete Pour — The Pile concrete was caused by the
condition of the existing piles during the chipping process. The total increase
for this item is$21,490.00.
Item 108—Cathodic Protection Integral Pile—The units were reduced due to
the amount of piles that needed the cathodic protection; therefore, based
on the unit price,a credit of($16,950.00)will be issued to the contract.
Modifications to Pile No. 1 — The existing condition of the pile required
additional work including demolition of existing rip rap wall, sidewalk
removal for repairs of the undermining and replacement of existing sidewalk.
The total increase in this line item is$9,667.00.
Modification to the East Pile —The eastern portion of the existing wall was
designed differently than the other piles within this system. This required a
revised design including the installation of soil anchors, specialized marine
equipment and an additional support beam to correct this existing condition.
The total increase for this item is$57,395.42

Aventura Police—The City of Aventura requested off duty police be used during lane closures for the
concrete pours. This was not included in the original contract documents. This required an increase
in the contract of$5,520.00.
Modifications to previously approved Change Order No. 1 (Attached) was for the installation of
fencing to protect the pedestrian traffic that were not following the detour setup. The maintenance
for the fence exceeded the original negotiated amount that was reduced under change order no 1,
due to several wind storms and removal/replacement during the construction process. The total
increase in this line item is$6,307.00.
There is a time increase of seventy-five (75) calendar days for the above additional work. The Final
Completion Date of the project is now scheduled for August 19, 2018.

Project: N.E. 183'4 St.Seawall Repairs
Bid Number 17-0405-2
Subject: Change Order 1/2 Increase in Quantities/Work on East Wall
Mr. Shaver:
As discussed over the telephone on April,26 2018,Kiewit Infrastructure South Co.("KISC")has completed its final
projection of quantities for the mferenced project and has determined there to be a significant increase. In addition
the 5 concrete piles located along the eastern wall of the project are unlike others within the project and will require
special attention. As such,KISC has completed a takeoff and determined this work to consist of the following:
I.) Bid Item 101-Full Depth Concrete Cap Replacement: The current bid quantity associated with this
work is 330CF while the forecasted final quantity is 742 CF which increases the contract value for this
item as such:$750.00/CF x 412CF- $309,000.00. While KISC has reduced the around of chipping
around the top of this pile during repairs,existing concrete conditions did have a considerable effect on
this increase.
2.) Bid Item 105 --Pile Reinforcing:The current bid quantity associated with this work is 6 Tons while the
forecasted final quantity is 7.2 Tons which increases the contract value for this item as such:$2,000.00
x 1.2Tons=$2.400.00.
3.) Bid Item 106—Pile Concrete pour:The current bid quantity associated with this work is 1393CF while
the forecasted final quantity is approximately I,700CF which increases the contract value for this item
as such:$70.00/CF x 307CF=$21,490.00. The main reason this bid item has increase was due to the
existing condition of the pile and amount removed during the demolition operations.
4.) Additional Work Associated with Change Order#I —Installation of Fencing: During the negotiations
regarding the installation of fencing to protect pedestrians during the demolition operations,KISC and
Craven Thompson&Associates agreed to reduce the labor associated with this work in half and track
its progress through the project. As the original estimate included 178MHs associated with this work
and was cut to 89M Hs during this negotiation, KISC has absorbed costs above the 178MHs at this time;
however, KISC is only seeking compensation for the costs up to its original estimate. This would
increase this item from the approximate 89MHs to 178MHs which is a total of$6,307.00.
5.) Modifications to Pile NI: Within pile#1, KISC found the existing conditions to require additional work
including the demolition of existing retaining wall concrete bags,demolition of existing sidewalk,
repairs due to undermining of existing sidewalk and replacement of existing sidewalk. Backup for this
work has been included within the below documents. KISC has approximated the costs associated with
this work to be$9,667.00.
6.) Modifications to the East Pile: The eastern portion of the existing wall is designed differently than the
other piles within this system. The difference within this section of wall has created the need for a
revised design including the installation of soil anchors,specialized marine equipment and an additional
support beam at the mid-section of the wall. Backup for this additional work has been included within
the below documents. KISC has approximated the costs associated with this work to be$57,395.42.
7.) Additional Police Officers for Lane Closures: Per the request of the City of Aventura off duty police
officers have been used during the single lane closures along the project. With this being said,KISC
has estimated there to be 2 Officers/Lane Closure x SHRs/Closure x$46.00/Hour x 12 Total

Closures:$5,520.00. Any costs associated with this work will be submitted on the final payment
request along with the appropriate invoices.
8.) Bid Item 108 Cathodic Protection Integral Pile Jacket: The current bid item for this work includes a
total of 660LF of jackets to be installed;however the total amount of jackets is approximated to be
630LF. The total reduction of costs associated with this is$565.00/LF x 30LF--$16,950.00
In total these additional costs amount to be$394,829.42. Per KISC's Contract,it was allotted 240 calendar days
starting October 9,2018 to complete the project. It is understood the remaining work associated the repairs on the
eastern section of this wall will require approval prior to proceeding with this work. As such, KISC is requesting the
final substantial completion for this work to be July 20,2018 with the final completion of August 19.2018;a 75
calendar day time frame extension from the original final completion date of June 5,2018

Re: Land Development Code Amendment Regarding Shadow Study
Dear Joanne:
This law firm represents YCM Acquisitions, LLC (the "Applicant"), with
regard to an application to amend the City of Aventura Land Development Code
to provide for additional clarifications regarding the shadow study requirement
in the RMF4 Zoning District,as follows:.
"Each proposed building or structure which exceeds 100 feet in height
shall be designed and situated such that the shadow created by the sun
at 12:00 noon on December 21 (a sun angle of 41 degrees) will not fall on
any adjacent property except for public road rights-of-way public or
private waterways and docks, Shadow studies shall be provided to the
Community Development Department"
While this section of the code is intended to protect the resident's
enjoyment of their yards, balconies and common areas, the language provides
virtually no exceptions and currently prohibits and any new building shadow to
be cast on private waterways and docks on those waterways. This language
adds these exceptions to the existing exception of"public road rights-of-way."
Section 31-77(g) of the City Code provides standards that staff and the
City Commission shall consider when reviewing proposed amendments to the

text of the City's Land Development Regulations (the "LDRs"). The Applicant's
request addresses each of the standards as follows:
(1) The proposed amendment is legally required.
In order for the Property to be developed as discussed with staff and the
City Commission, the proposed amendment to the LDRs must be
approved and is thus required.
(2) The proposed amendment is consistent with the goals and
objectives of the Comprehensive Plan.
The proposed changes are consistent with the goals and objectives of the
Comprehensive Plan. The approval of the amendment would in fact
permit the development of the Applicant's property exactly as
contemplated by the comprehensive plan.
(3) The proposed amendment is consistent with the authority and
purpose of the LDR.
The proposed amendment is consistent with the authority and purpose of
the LDRs, as described in Section 31-2 of the City Code.
(4) The proposed amendment furthers the orderly development of the
City.
The proposed amendment certainly furthers the orderly development of
the City. Currently, the Property remains underdeveloped and the
Applicant is proposing a project which will meet the requirements and
goals of the RMF4 Zoning District.
(5) The proposed amendment improves the administration or execution
of the development process.
Since the use being proposed is consistent with the goals and objectives of
the RMF4 Zoning District and High Density Residential Land Use
category, the approval of the amendment will improve the administration
or execution of the development process.

DATE: April 19, 2018

SUBJECT: Ordinance Amending Section 36-37 of the City Code, Entitled Time of
Hire in the Police Pension Plan
First Reading — May 1, 2018 City Commission Meeting Agenda Item e)g
Second Reading — June 12, 2018 City Commission Meeting Agenda Item 0 F3
Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached Ordinance amending
Section 36-37 of the City Code, entitled Time of Hire in the Police Pension Plan.
Background
The City of Aventura established its Police Officers' Retirement Plan ("the Plan") on
October 1, 2003. The City currently employs 13 officers who were hired between
October 1, 2000 and September 30, 2003, who because of the existing Plan design did
not receive pension credit for that time-period. The City and the PBA have had on-
going discussions regarding this issue, and have come to an agreement that would
allow these impacted members to buy back pension credit at their own expense, as
calculated by the Plan's actuary. The payment to the Plan can be made in a lump sum
transfer from an eligible retirement plan or through pre-tax installment payments over a
period of not to exceed three years.
In order to implement this proposed change, a Memorandum of Understanding,
amending the existing PBA contract is required in addition to an amendment to the
City's Code of Ordinances to reflect the change in the Plan document. The PBA voted
on the MOU on April 4, 2018, voting 38-0 in favor.
This item was reviewed with the City Commission at the April 19, 2018 workshop and
consensus was provided to proceed with the item on the May 1, 2018 Commission
meeting.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Re: City of Aventura
Police Officers' Retirement Plan
Dear Lauri:
In response to your email dated May 8,2018, we have reviewed the proposed Ordinance amending the
plan to allow certain members to purchase credited service. We have determined that its adoption will
have no impact on the assumptions used in determining the funding requirements of the program.
Because the changes do not result in a change in the valuation results,it is our opinion that a formal
Actuarial Impact Statement is not required in support of its adoption. However, since the Division of
Retirement must be aware of the current provisions of all public pension programs, it is recommended
that you send a copy of this letter and a copy of the fully executed Ordinance to each of the following
offices:
Mr. Keith Brinkman Mr. Steve Bardin

The undersigned is familiar with the immediate and long-term aspects of pension valuations, and meets

Who we are
The Seawall Coalition is a nonpartisan group of elected officials, military groups, nonprofit
organizations, businesses, and local leaders that have come together to unlock national
solutions to sea level rise and flooding that support coastal and riverfront communities and
protect our nation's residents, economy, and military installations.
Our mission
Protecting our coasts from sea level rise is a national issue that must be met with national
solutions - it is vitally important to our country's citizen well-being, economic strength, and
security. Our coastal communities are the backbone of our country, home to over 125 million
Americans, 37 of the top 50 largest ports in the country, and 18 military installations currently
at risk from sea level rise.
With effective sea level rise planning our coastal communities can adapt and thrive. Investing
in adaptation planning and projects can protect the ports, highways,and runways that drive our
economy,creating jobs and economic opportunities for our local communities. But we must
act now.
The Seawall Coalition advocates for practical national solutions to serve our communities.
We support policies that strengthen our economy, invest in our coastal communities, and
safeguard our national security.

0 Invest in infrastructure and natural solutions that
boost the economy and protect property values
The United States is a maritime nation and our national economy relies on our coastal ports,
highways, and other infrastructure that is at risk from sea level rise. We will support states and
communities that are investing to make their infrastructure resilient to sea level rise by
creating a source of dedicated funding and incentives. This could include
adaptation trust funds, revolving loan funds, tax breaks and incentives, and other programs
that help drive investment in planning and infrastructure to prevent flood damage.
These investments help ensure coastal tourism and property values remain strong while also
spurring innovation and creating jobs. Jobs constructing infrastructure will create local em-
ployment opportunities that cannot be outsourced. As our communities adapt to sea level rise
and flooding, we'll also be able to build new businesses and innovation that we can export,
similar to how the Netherlands currently gains about 2% of its GDP through water-related
products and services. With smart investment, America can take a leadership role in creating
sea level rise solutions and bring this innovation to others around the globe.
Policies
► Support communities investing in adaptation through dedicated federal funding and
incentives, which could include adaptation trust funds, revolving loan funds, tax breaks
and incentives, and other funding programs
► Increase innovation grants for research into flood mitigation technology
► Facilitate the exchange of best practices among coastal communities

e Use smart planning to keep communities safe
and save taxpayer dollars
History demonstrates that proactive protection pays off. Studies have found that for every $1
spent on pre-disaster mitigation we save $4 in disaster relief, along with untold heartache for
affected communities.Yet the Federal Emergency Management Agency(FEMA) currently spends
only a fraction of 1% of its budget on mitigation, and we have few other federal programs that
incentivize these investments.
We can invest in proactive protection that saves taxpayer money and protects our coastal
communities by hardwiring resilience into federal programs. We support expanding FEMA and
the Department of Housing and Urban Development(HUD) pre-disaster mitigation programs and
incentivizing resilience through the Department of Transportation and other programs. We can
also give communities the flexibility to invest in living shoreline and other natural infrastructure
solutions by making the planning and permitting more efficient.To responsibly steward taxpayer
dollars, we also need one consistent flood-ready standard for all major federal infrastructure
investments so that we're making smart investments in infrastructure that is built to last.
To make smart investments,our local communities, businesses,and homeowners also need
accurate information on flood risk and reliable FEMA flood maps. Currently,15%of the FEMA
flood maps have not been updated since the 1970s or 1980s, and none of the maps include sea
level rise. We need to invest in updating the maps and should make sure they include past and
projected sea level rise so we can plan responsibly.
Policies
► Increase pre-disaster mitigation funding across agencies
► Adopt federal minimum standards for building and apply these standards to all major
federal investments
► Update FEMA flood maps to reflect current data and include sea level rise projections
► Support efficient planning and permitting for living shorelines, including working with
the Army Corps to expand the new living shoreline permit category to incorporate a
broader range of nature-based sea level rise solutions

0 Build back stronger to protect communities
from future flooding
When disaster strikes and the national government spends billions to rebuild, we need to build
back stronger so our communities can withstand future flooding and do not keep drawing
on taxpayer dollars to rebuild again and again. By creating federal standards for rebuilding
that take a clear-eyed view of future risk, we can keep our citizens safe and prevent wasteful
spending. We can also improve HUD, FEMA, and Small Business Administration (SBA)
programs so that they allow and incentivize rebuilding to higher standards.
Policies
► Create federal resilience standards for rebuilding after hurricanes and flood damage
► Issue guidance from HUD on how the Community Development Block Grant program
can be used to encourage adaptive rebuilding
► Have FEMA authorize modifications and mitigation measures to support adaptation of
damaged facilities with Public Assistance funding
► Promote additional studies that evaluate high-risk areas to identify and authorize
projects that will be ready for immediate federal funding under emergency
congressional authorizations
► Allow the SBA Disaster Loan Program to incentivize resilient construction

0 Ensure our military installations
are ready to deploy 365 days a year
Many of our military facilities have tidal flooding 50 times per year, and over a dozen of these
installations are on track to face flooding 100 times per year by 2050. This puts our national
security and military readiness at risk. Some installations are already taking action to protect
against sea level rise, but we need coordinated national action to ensure all our military
installations are prepared for the future. We need the Department of Defense (DOD) to
strategically prioritize adaptation plans for our installations and study the effects of sea level
rise on our military readiness. Even when military installations are prepared, flooded roads
leading to them can hinder servicepeople from reaching their installations to conduct their
missions. The military needs more flexibility to invest in projects outside our installations to
make sure servicepeople can deploy quickly to keep our country safe.
Policies
► Give the DOD the needed authority to assess the impact of sea level rise and flooding
on our military installations, create adaptation plans, and commence critical projects to
protect our installations and maintain readiness
► Allow military services the authority to access their mission and operational funds to
address sea level rise and flooding issues that directly affect their mission (e.g. roads
onto installations, power grids)

RESOLUTION NO. 2018-
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
AVENTURA, FLORIDA, JOINING THE SEAWALL COALITION;
PROVIDING FOR IMPLEMENTATION; PROVIDING FOR
TRANSMITTAL; AND PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
WHEREAS, the City of Aventura (the "City") is committed to protecting its
community from sea level rise and related flooding and is working with local and regional
partners to build the City's resiliency and to develop mitigation strategies to address sea
level rise; and
WHEREAS, sea level rise poses a unique threat to all of Florida, given the
limestone bedrock beneath the majority of the state, which allows rising sea water to
infiltrate sewage systems and threaten groundwater supplies via salt water intrusion; and
WHEREAS, it is reported that sea level rise has risen eight inches since 1950 and
its speed has increased threefold in recent years, with scientific projections forecasting
another eight inches of sea level rise in the next 20 years; and
WHEREAS, sea level rise of just four inches in the last 10 years has increased
flooding state-wide; and
WHEREAS, proactively investing to prevent flooding is a wiser use of resources
than spending on flood recovery, as exemplified by FEMA research establishing that $1
spent on disaster prevention saves $4 in recovery costs; and
WHEREAS, national coordination and support are necessary for coastal and other
communities to fully address the challenge of sea level rise and related flooding; and
WHEREAS, the Seawall Coalition (the "Coalition") provides a platform to advocate
for national solutions to sea level rise and related flooding that invest in and protect
coastal and other impacted communities; and
WHEREAS, the Coalition is a non-partisan group of elected officials, military
groups, businesses, and community leaders developing best practices as well as
national, local and state-level responses to sea level rise and related flooding; and
WHEREAS, joining the Coalition will further enhance the City's efforts to protect
against sea level rise and related flooding, without requiring any direct financial support
or dues payments from the City to the Coalition; and
