BACKGROUND:
On July 15, 2020, Procurement issued a solicitation under full and open competition to obtain proposals
from qualified firms. On August 28, 2020, Procurement received eight (8) proposals in response to the
solicitation (see attached Proposal Security List). Subsequently, the proposals were reviewed by
Procurement staff, upon which six (6) proposals were deemed responsive and responsible in accordance
with the minimum qualifications and experience requirements of the RFQ; two (2) proposals, however,
were deemed non -responsive in accordance with the minimum qualifications and experience requirements
of the RFQ. Accordingly, on December 16, 2020, the Evaluation Committee ("Committee") met and
completed the evaluation and ranking of all proposals following the stipulated guidelines in the solicitation.
The proposals were evaluated in accordance with six (6) evaluation criteria and ranked by total awarded
points (see enclosed Report of Evaluation Committee Memorandum).
Upon review and subsequent approval of the Report of the Evaluation Committee Memorandum by the
City Manager on January 5, 2021, negotiations were initiated with the Consultant, the highest ranked firm.
The City's negotiation team, comprised of staff from the Office of Capital Improvements ("OCI") and the

INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO: Arthur Noriega, V DATE: December 28, 2020 FILE:
City Manager
FROM: Annie Perez, CPPO, Director SUBJECT: Report of Evaluation Committee for
Department of Procurement Request for Qualifications (RFQ) No. 19-20-031, 1-
395 Pedestrian Baywalk and Bikeway Bridge
Project - D2
ENCLOSURES: Response Security List,
Evaluation Committee Tabulation Sheets,
Evaluation Committee Appointment Memo, and
State of Florida Executive Orders 20-52 and 20-69
Background
On July 15, 2020, the City of Miami ("City") Department of Procurement ("Procurement") issued Request
for Qualifications ("RFQ") No. 19-20-031 for the provision of professional services for the 1-395
Pedestrian Baywalk and Bikeway Bridge Project - D2 ("Project"), on behalf of the Office of Capital
Improvements (OCI).
Previously, on March 9, 2020, the State of Florida issued a Declaration of Emergency through Executive
Order 20-52 (copy attached) as a result of the Novel Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.
Subsequently, on August 28, 2020, Procurement received eight (8) proposals in response to this
solicitation. Consequently, the proposals were reviewed by Procurement staff, upon which six (6)
proposals from Jacobs Engineering Group, Inc. ("Jacobs"), Perkins & Will Architects, Inc. ("Perkins"),
NV5, Inc. ("NVY), EXP U.S. Services, Inc. ("EXP U.S."), Stantec Consulting Services, Inc. ("Stantec"),
and Bermello, Ajamil & Partners, Inc. ("Bermello"), were deemed responsive and responsible in
accordance with the minimum qualifications and experience requirements of the RFQ. The remaining two
(2) proposals were disqualified from the selection process for proposing an Environmental Engineer
without holding a professional registration in the State of Florida as required by the RFQ. On November
30, 2020, pursuant to Section 3.1, "Acceptance/Rejection" and in consultation with the City Attorney's
Office, R.E. Chisholm Architects, Inc. and Berenblum Busch Architecture, Inc. were sent non -
responsiveness letters outlining the reasons for such decision.
At the time, the selection process continued to remain on hold until October 15, 2020, when the City
Attorney's Office approved the guidelines to conduct virtual meetings proposed by Procurement. Upon
sunset of State of Florida's Executive Order 20-69 (copy attached) on November 1, 2020, Procurement
resumed the selection process. On November 11, 2020, an Evaluation Committee ("Committee") was
appointed by the City Manager, and the Step 1 Evaluation Committee meeting was scheduled for
December 16, 2020
Summary of Evaluation
While governed by Florida Statutes Section 287.055, any typical selection of professional services
consultants may be comprised of two (2) steps: Step 1 "Evaluation of Qualifications and Experience,"
and Step 2 "Evaluation of Technical Proposals/Oral Presentations."
On December 16, 2020, the Evaluation Committee met and completed the Step 1 evaluation of the six
(6) responsive and responsible proposals, following the guidelines stipulated in the solicitation.
Accordingly, the proposals were evaluated pursuant to the six (6) evaluation criteria listed below:
Page 2, Professional Engineering Services for 1-395 Pedestrian Baywalk and Bikeway Bridge Project - D2
Arthur Noriega V, City Manager
Evaluation Criteria Step 1 Maximum Points
(Per Committee Member)
1. Proposer's Qualifications and Experience 30
2. Proposer's Project Manager's Qualifications and Experience 20
3. Proposer's Lead Architect/Designer's Qualifications and Experience 20
4. Proposer's Team Members Qualifications and Experience 15
5. Design Philosophy and Process/Technical Capabilities and Approach 10
6. Amount of Work Awarded by the City 5
Total Points Per Committee Member 100
Due to the potential utilization of non -local funding sources to compensate consultants under contract,
the standard 15% participation of Small Business Enterprise ("SBE") firm was not required. Furthermore,
Procurement staff assigned scores for Criterion 6, "Amount of Work Awarded by the City," based on the
amount of work awarded by the City of Miami within the previous three (3) years from the Proposal
Submission Due Date of August 28, 2020. The individual scores per team under this criterion are
indicated between parenthesis next to the total awarded points shown below. The final scores were as
follows:
Proposing Firms Awarded Points
(Maximum 500 points)
1. EXP U.S. Services, Inc.
455 (20)
2. Jacobs Engineering Group, Inc.
437 (20)
3. Stantec Consulting Services, Inc.
395 (25)
4. NV5, Inc.
394 (10)
5. Perkins & Will Architects, Inc.
384 (15)
6. Bermello, Ajamil & Partners, Inc.
356 (20)
The Committee decided to waive Step 2 proceedings and oral presentations, as the proposals did not
require further clarification. The tabulation and individual Committee member score sheets for the Step 1
meeting are attached as supporting documentation.
Consensus Statement
The highest ranked firm, EXP U.S., received a total of 455 points out of a maximum total of 500 points.
The Committee determined that the firm assembled a team of architectural and engineering
professionals distinctly qualified to provide comprehensive services for the Project.
The Committee discussed the experience and structure of the firm's proposed multi -discipline team. The
firm proposed a substantial group of in-house architectural and engineering professionals, in addition to
proposing a team of sub -consultants to support engineering, surveying, certified cost estimating services,
geotechnical engineering, and landscape architectural needs. The proposed Lead Architect and Project
Manager demonstrated prior experience in multiple pedestrian bridge projects. The firm has substantial
experience with pedestrian bridges and seems able to provide alternatives, if necessary. Additionally, the
Committee discussed the firm's Design Philosophy and Process. The firm proposed designs and plans
that demonstrated a thorough understanding of the City's vision. The firm's proposal also demonstrated
an optimal balance between the Project goals of constructing a pedestrian bridge, while creating a
destination spot for tourism.
After deliberation, the Committee members unanimously agreed that EXP U.S. presented a proposal
comprehensively suited to meet the critical needs of the City through the Project.

STATE OF FLORIDA
OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR
EXECUTIVE ORDER NUMBER 20-52
(Emergency Management - COVID-19 Public Health Emergency)
WHEREAS, Novel Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a severe acute respiratory
illness that can spread among humans through respiratory transmission and presents with
symptoms similar to those of influenza; and
and
WHEREAS, in late 2019, a new and significant outbreak of COVID-19 emerged in China;
WHEREAS, the World Health Organization previously declared COVID-19 a Public
Health Emergency of International Concern; and
WHEREAS, in response to the recent COVID-19 outbreak in China, Iran, Italy, Japan and
South Korea, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ("CDC") has deemed it necessary to
prohibit or restrict non -essential travel to or from those countries; and
WHEREAS, on March 1, 2020, 1 issued Executive Order number 20-51 directing the
Florida Department of Health to issue a Public Health Emergency; and
WHEREAS, on March 1, 2020, the State Surgeon General and State Health Officer
declared a Public Health Emergency exists in the State of Florida as a result of COVID-19; and
WHEREAS, on March 7, 2020, I directed the Director of the Division of Emergency
Management to activate the State Emergency Operations Center to Level 2 to provide coordination
and response to the COVID-19 emergency; and
WHEREAS, as of March 9, 2020, eight counties in Florida have positive cases for
COVID-19, and COVID-19 poses a risk to the entire state of Florida; and
WHEREAS, the CDC currently recommends community preparedness and everyday
prevention measures be taken by all individuals and families in the United States, including
voluntary home isolation when individuals are sick with respiratory symptoms, covering coughs
and sneezes with a tissue and disposal of the tissue immediately thereafter, washing hands often
with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, using of alcohol -based hand sanitizers with 60%-95%
alcohol if soap and water are not readily available and routinely cleaning frequently touched
surfaces and objects to increase community resilience and readiness for responding to an outbreak;
and
WHEREAS, the CDC currently recommends mitigation measures for communities
experiencing an outbreak including staying at home when sick, keeping away from others who are
sick, limiting face-to-face contact with others as much as possible, consulting with your healthcare
provider if individuals or members of a household are at high risk for COVID-19 complications,
wearing a facemask if advised to do so by a healthcare provider or by a public health official,
staying home when a household member is sick with respiratory disease symptoms if instructed to
do so by public health officials or a health care provider; and
WHEREAS, as Governor, I am responsible for meeting the dangers presented to this state
and its people by this emergency.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, RON DESANTIS, as Governor of Florida, by virtue of the
authority vested in me by Article IV, Section (1)(a) of the Florida Constitution, Chapter 252,
Florida Statutes, and all other applicable laws, promulgate the following Executive Order to take
immediate effect:
Section 1. Because of the foregoing conditions, I declare a state of emergency exists in the
State of Florida.
2
Section 2. I designate the Director of the Division of Emergency Management ("Director")
as the State Coordinating Officer for the duration of this emergency and direct him to execute the
State's Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan and other response, recovery, and mitigation
plans necessary to cope with the emergency. Additionally, I designate the State Health Officer
and Surgeon General as a Deputy State Coordinating Officer and State Incident Commander.
Pursuant to section 252.36(l)(a), Florida Statutes, I delegate to the State Coordinating
Officer the authority to exercise those powers delineated in sections 252.36(5)-(10), Florida
Statutes, which he shall exercise as needed to meet this emergency, subject to the limitations of
section 252.33, Florida Statutes. In exercising the powers delegated by this Order, the State
Coordinating Officer shall confer with the Governor to the fullest extent practicable. The State
Coordinating Officer shall also have the authority to.
A. Seek direct assistance and enter into agreements with any and all agencies of the
United States Government as may be needed to meet the emergency.
B. Designate additional Deputy State Coordinating Officers, as necessary.
C. Suspend the effect of any statute, rule, or order that would in any way prevent,
hinder, or delay any mitigation, response, or recovery action necessary to cope with this
emergency.
D. Enter orders as may be needed to implement any of the foregoing powers; however,
the requirements of sections 252.46 and 120.54(4), Florida Statutes, do not apply to any such
orders issued by the State Coordinating Officer; however, no such order shall remain in effect
beyond the expiration of this Executive Order, to include any extension.
Section 3. I order the Adjutant General to activate the Florida National Guard, as needed,
to deal with this emergency.
3
Section 4. I find that the special duties and responsibilities resting upon some State,
regional, and local agencies and other governmental bodies in responding to the emergency may
require them to suspend the application of the statutes, rules, ordinances, and orders they
administer. Therefore, I issue the following authorizations:
A. Pursuant to section 252.36(1)(a), Florida Statutes, the Executive Office of the
Governor may suspend all statutes and rules affecting budgeting to the extent necessary to provide
budget authority for state agencies to cope with this emergency. The requirements of sections
252.46 and 120.54(4), Florida Statutes, do not apply to any such suspension issued by the
Executive Office of the Governor; however, no such suspension shall remain in effect beyond the
expiration of this Executive Order, to include any extension.
B. Each State agency may suspend the provisions of any regulatory statute prescribing
the procedures for conduct of state business or the orders or rules of that agency, if strict
compliance with the provisions of any such statute, order, or rule would in any way prevent, hinder,
or delay necessary action in coping with the emergency. This includes, but is not limited to, the
authority to suspend any and all statutes, rules, ordinances, or orders which affect leasing, printing,
purchasing, travel, and the condition of employment and the compensation of employees. For the
purposes of this Executive Order, "necessary action in coping with the emergency" means any
emergency mitigation, response, or recovery action: (1) prescribed in the State Comprehensive
Emergency Management Plan ("CEMP"); or (2) ordered by the State Coordinating Officer. The
requirements of sections 252.46 and 120.54, Florida Statutes, shall not apply to any such
suspension issued by a State agency; however, no such suspension shall remain in effect beyond
the expiration of this Executive Order, to include any extensions.
4
C. In accordance with section 465.0275, Florida Statutes, pharmacists may dispense
up to a 30-day emergency prescription refill of maintenance medication to persons who reside in
an area or county covered under this Executive Order and to emergency personnel who have been
activated by their state and local agency but who do not reside in an area or county covered by this
Executive Order.
D. In accordance with section 252.38, Florida Statutes, each political subdivision
within the State of Florida may waive the procedures and formalities otherwise required of the
political subdivision by law pertaining to:
1) Performance of public work and taking whatever prudent action is
necessary to ensure the health, safety, and welfare of the community;
2) Entering into contracts; however, political subdivisions are cautioned
against entering into time and materials contracts without ceiling as defined by 2 CFR 200.3180)
or cost plus percentage contracts as defined by 2 CFR 200.323(d);
3) Incurring obligations;
4) Employment of permanent and temporary workers;
5) Utilization of volunteer workers;
6) Rental of equipment;
7) Acquisition and distribution, with or without compensation, of supplies,
materials, and facilities; and,
8) Appropriation and expenditure of public funds.
E. All State agencies responsible for the use of State buildings and facilities may close
such buildings and facilities in those portions of the State affected by this emergency, to the extent
necessary to meet this emergency. I direct each State agency to report the closure of any State
5
building or facility to the Secretary of the Department of Management Services. Under the
authority contained in section 252.36, Florida Statutes, I direct each County to report the closure
of any building or facility operated or maintained by the County or any political subdivision therein
to the Secretary of the Department of Management Services. Furthermore, I direct the Secretary
of the Department of Management Services to:
1) Maintain an accurate and up-to-date list of all such closures; and,
2) Provide that list daily to the State Coordinating Officer.
Section 5. I find that the demands placed upon the funds appropriated to the agencies of
the State of Florida and to local agencies are unreasonably great and the funds currently available
may be inadequate to pay the costs of coping with this emergency. In accordance with section
252.37(2), Florida Statutes, I direct that sufficient fiends be made available, as needed, by
transferring and expending moneys appropriated for other purposes, moneys from unappropriated
surplus funds, or from the Budget Stabilization Fund.
Section 6. All State agencies entering emergency final orders or other final actions in
response to this emergency shall advise the State Coordinating Officer contemporaneously or as
soon as practicable.
Section 7. Medical professionals and workers, social workers, and counselors with good
and valid professional licenses issued by states other than the State of Florida may render such
services in Florida during this emergency for persons affected by this emergency with the
condition that such services be rendered to such persons free of charge, and with the further
condition that such services be rendered under the auspices of the American Red Cross or the
Florida Department of Health.
2
Section 8. All activities taken by the Director of the Division of Emergency Management
and the State Health Officer and Surgeon General with respect to this emergency before the
issuance of this Executive Order are ratified. This Executive Order shall expire sixty days from
this date unless extended.

OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR
EXECUTIVE ORDER NUMBER 20-69
(Emergency Management — COVID-19 — Local Government Public Meetings)
WHEREAS, on March 1, 2020, I issued Executive Order 20-51 directing the Florida
Department of Health to issue a Public Health Emergency as a result of COVID-19; and
WHEREAS, on March 1, 2020, the State Surgeon General and State Health Officer
declared a Public Health Emergency exists in the State of Florida as a result of COVID-19; and
WHEREAS, on March 9, 2020, I issued Executive Order 20-52 declaring a state of
emergency for the entire State of Florida as a result of COVID-19; and
WHEREAS, on March 16, 2020, President Donald J. Trump and the Centers for Disease

individuals to adopt far-reaching social distancing measures, such as working from home and
avoiding gatherings of more than 10 people; and
WHEREAS, on March 17, 2020, I wrote a letter to Attorney General Ashley Moody
seeking an advisory opinion regarding concerns raised by local government bodies about their
ability to hold meetings through teleconferencing and other technological means in order to protect
the public and follow the CDC guidance regarding social distancing; and
WHEREAS, on March 19, 2020, Attorney General Ashley Moody delivered an opinion
to me indicating that certain provisions of Florida law require a physical quorum be present for
local government bodies to conduct official business, and that local government bodies may only
conduct meetings by teleconferencing or other technological means if either a statute permits a
quorum to be present by means other than in person, or that the in person requirement for
constituting a quorum is lawfully suspended during the state of emergency; and
WHEREAS, it is necessary and appropriate to take action to ensure that COVID-19
remains controlled, and that residents and visitors in Florida remain safe and secure;

City Manager
FROM: Annie Perez, CPPO, Director SUBJECT: Report of Evaluation Committee for
Department of Procurement Request for Qualifications (RFQ) No. 19-20-031, 1-
395 Pedestrian Baywalk and Bikeway Bridge
Project - D2
ENCLOSURES: Response Security List,
Evaluation Committee Tabulation Sheets,
Evaluation Committee Appointment Memo, and
State of Florida Executive Orders 20-52 and 20-69
Background
On July 15, 2020, the City of Miami ("City") Department of Procurement ("Procurement") issued Request
for Qualifications ("RFQ") No. 19-20-031 for the provision of professional services for the 1-395
Pedestrian Baywalk and Bikeway Bridge Project - D2 ("Project"), on behalf of the Office of Capital
Improvements (OCI).
Previously, on March 9, 2020, the State of Florida issued a Declaration of Emergency through Executive
Order 20-52 (copy attached) as a result of the Novel Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.
Subsequently, on August 28, 2020, Procurement received eight (8) proposals in response to this
solicitation. Consequently, the proposals were reviewed by Procurement staff, upon which six (6)
proposals from Jacobs Engineering Group, Inc. ("Jacobs"), Perkins & Will Architects, Inc. ("Perkins"),
NV5, Inc. ("NVY), EXP U.S. Services, Inc. ("EXP U.S."), Stantec Consulting Services, Inc. ("Stantec"),
and Bermello, Ajamil & Partners, Inc. ("Bermello"), were deemed responsive and responsible in
accordance with the minimum qualifications and experience requirements of the RFQ. The remaining two
(2) proposals were disqualified from the selection process for proposing an Environmental Engineer
without holding a professional registration in the State of Florida as required by the RFQ. On November
30, 2020, pursuant to Section 3.1, "Acceptance/Rejection" and in consultation with the City Attorney's
Office, R.E. Chisholm Architects, Inc. and Berenblum Busch Architecture, Inc. were sent non -
responsiveness letters outlining the reasons for such decision.
At the time, the selection process continued to remain on hold until October 15, 2020, when the City
Attorney's Office approved the guidelines to conduct virtual meetings proposed by Procurement. Upon
sunset of State of Florida's Executive Order 20-69 (copy attached) on November 1, 2020, Procurement
resumed the selection process. On November 11, 2020, an Evaluation Committee ("Committee") was
appointed by the City Manager, and the Step 1 Evaluation Committee meeting was scheduled for
December 16, 2020
Summary of Evaluation
While governed by Florida Statutes Section 287.055, any typical selection of professional services
consultants may be comprised of two (2) steps: Step 1 "Evaluation of Qualifications and Experience,"
and Step 2 "Evaluation of Technical Proposals/Oral Presentations."
On December 16, 2020, the Evaluation Committee met and completed the Step 1 evaluation of the six
(6) responsive and responsible proposals, following the guidelines stipulated in the solicitation.
Accordingly, the proposals were evaluated pursuant to the six (6) evaluation criteria listed below:
Page 2, Professional Engineering Services for 1-395 Pedestrian Baywalk and Bikeway Bridge Project - D2
Arthur Noriega V, City Manager
Evaluation Criteria Step 1 Maximum Points
(Per Committee Member)
1. Proposer's Qualifications and Experience 30
2. Proposer's Project Manager's Qualifications and Experience 20
3. Proposer's Lead Architect/Designer's Qualifications and Experience 20
4. Proposer's Team Members Qualifications and Experience 15
5. Design Philosophy and Process/Technical Capabilities and Approach 10
6. Amount of Work Awarded by the City 5
Total Points Per Committee Member 100
Due to the potential utilization of non -local funding sources to compensate consultants under contract,
the standard 15% participation of Small Business Enterprise ("SBE") firm was not required. Furthermore,
Procurement staff assigned scores for Criterion 6, "Amount of Work Awarded by the City," based on the
amount of work awarded by the City of Miami within the previous three (3) years from the Proposal
Submission Due Date of August 28, 2020. The individual scores per team under this criterion are
indicated between parenthesis next to the total awarded points shown below. The final scores were as
follows:
Proposing Firms Awarded Points
(Maximum 500 points)
1. EXP U.S. Services, Inc.
455 (20)
2. Jacobs Engineering Group, Inc.
437 (20)
3. Stantec Consulting Services, Inc.
395 (25)
4. NV5, Inc.
394 (10)
5. Perkins & Will Architects, Inc.
384 (15)
6. Bermello, Ajamil & Partners, Inc.
356 (20)
The Committee decided to waive Step 2 proceedings and oral presentations, as the proposals did not
require further clarification. The tabulation and individual Committee member score sheets for the Step 1
meeting are attached as supporting documentation.
Consensus Statement
The highest ranked firm, EXP U.S., received a total of 455 points out of a maximum total of 500 points.
The Committee determined that the firm assembled a team of architectural and engineering
professionals distinctly qualified to provide comprehensive services for the Project.
The Committee discussed the experience and structure of the firm's proposed multi -discipline team. The
firm proposed a substantial group of in-house architectural and engineering professionals, in addition to
proposing a team of sub -consultants to support engineering, surveying, certified cost estimating services,
geotechnical engineering, and landscape architectural needs. The proposed Lead Architect and Project
Manager demonstrated prior experience in multiple pedestrian bridge projects. The firm has substantial
experience with pedestrian bridges and seems able to provide alternatives, if necessary. Additionally, the
Committee discussed the firm's Design Philosophy and Process. The firm proposed designs and plans
that demonstrated a thorough understanding of the City's vision. The firm's proposal also demonstrated
an optimal balance between the Project goals of constructing a pedestrian bridge, while creating a
destination spot for tourism.
After deliberation, the Committee members unanimously agreed that EXP U.S. presented a proposal
comprehensively suited to meet the critical needs of the City through the Project.

STATE OF FLORIDA
OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR
EXECUTIVE ORDER NUMBER 20-52
(Emergency Management - COVID-19 Public Health Emergency)
WHEREAS, Novel Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a severe acute respiratory
illness that can spread among humans through respiratory transmission and presents with
symptoms similar to those of influenza; and
and
WHEREAS, in late 2019, a new and significant outbreak of COVID-19 emerged in China;
WHEREAS, the World Health Organization previously declared COVID-19 a Public
Health Emergency of International Concern; and
WHEREAS, in response to the recent COVID-19 outbreak in China, Iran, Italy, Japan and
South Korea, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ("CDC") has deemed it necessary to
prohibit or restrict non -essential travel to or from those countries; and
WHEREAS, on March 1, 2020, 1 issued Executive Order number 20-51 directing the
Florida Department of Health to issue a Public Health Emergency; and
WHEREAS, on March 1, 2020, the State Surgeon General and State Health Officer
declared a Public Health Emergency exists in the State of Florida as a result of COVID-19; and
WHEREAS, on March 7, 2020, I directed the Director of the Division of Emergency
Management to activate the State Emergency Operations Center to Level 2 to provide coordination
and response to the COVID-19 emergency; and
WHEREAS, as of March 9, 2020, eight counties in Florida have positive cases for
COVID-19, and COVID-19 poses a risk to the entire state of Florida; and
WHEREAS, the CDC currently recommends community preparedness and everyday
prevention measures be taken by all individuals and families in the United States, including
voluntary home isolation when individuals are sick with respiratory symptoms, covering coughs
and sneezes with a tissue and disposal of the tissue immediately thereafter, washing hands often
with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, using of alcohol -based hand sanitizers with 60%-95%
alcohol if soap and water are not readily available and routinely cleaning frequently touched
surfaces and objects to increase community resilience and readiness for responding to an outbreak;
and
WHEREAS, the CDC currently recommends mitigation measures for communities
experiencing an outbreak including staying at home when sick, keeping away from others who are
sick, limiting face-to-face contact with others as much as possible, consulting with your healthcare
provider if individuals or members of a household are at high risk for COVID-19 complications,
wearing a facemask if advised to do so by a healthcare provider or by a public health official,
staying home when a household member is sick with respiratory disease symptoms if instructed to
do so by public health officials or a health care provider; and
WHEREAS, as Governor, I am responsible for meeting the dangers presented to this state
and its people by this emergency.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, RON DESANTIS, as Governor of Florida, by virtue of the
authority vested in me by Article IV, Section (1)(a) of the Florida Constitution, Chapter 252,
Florida Statutes, and all other applicable laws, promulgate the following Executive Order to take
immediate effect:
Section 1. Because of the foregoing conditions, I declare a state of emergency exists in the
State of Florida.
2
Section 2. I designate the Director of the Division of Emergency Management ("Director")
as the State Coordinating Officer for the duration of this emergency and direct him to execute the
State's Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan and other response, recovery, and mitigation
plans necessary to cope with the emergency. Additionally, I designate the State Health Officer
and Surgeon General as a Deputy State Coordinating Officer and State Incident Commander.
Pursuant to section 252.36(l)(a), Florida Statutes, I delegate to the State Coordinating
Officer the authority to exercise those powers delineated in sections 252.36(5)-(10), Florida
Statutes, which he shall exercise as needed to meet this emergency, subject to the limitations of
section 252.33, Florida Statutes. In exercising the powers delegated by this Order, the State
Coordinating Officer shall confer with the Governor to the fullest extent practicable. The State
Coordinating Officer shall also have the authority to.
A. Seek direct assistance and enter into agreements with any and all agencies of the
United States Government as may be needed to meet the emergency.
B. Designate additional Deputy State Coordinating Officers, as necessary.
C. Suspend the effect of any statute, rule, or order that would in any way prevent,
hinder, or delay any mitigation, response, or recovery action necessary to cope with this
emergency.
D. Enter orders as may be needed to implement any of the foregoing powers; however,
the requirements of sections 252.46 and 120.54(4), Florida Statutes, do not apply to any such
orders issued by the State Coordinating Officer; however, no such order shall remain in effect
beyond the expiration of this Executive Order, to include any extension.
Section 3. I order the Adjutant General to activate the Florida National Guard, as needed,
to deal with this emergency.
3
Section 4. I find that the special duties and responsibilities resting upon some State,
regional, and local agencies and other governmental bodies in responding to the emergency may
require them to suspend the application of the statutes, rules, ordinances, and orders they
administer. Therefore, I issue the following authorizations:
A. Pursuant to section 252.36(1)(a), Florida Statutes, the Executive Office of the
Governor may suspend all statutes and rules affecting budgeting to the extent necessary to provide
budget authority for state agencies to cope with this emergency. The requirements of sections
252.46 and 120.54(4), Florida Statutes, do not apply to any such suspension issued by the
Executive Office of the Governor; however, no such suspension shall remain in effect beyond the
expiration of this Executive Order, to include any extension.
B. Each State agency may suspend the provisions of any regulatory statute prescribing
the procedures for conduct of state business or the orders or rules of that agency, if strict
compliance with the provisions of any such statute, order, or rule would in any way prevent, hinder,
or delay necessary action in coping with the emergency. This includes, but is not limited to, the
authority to suspend any and all statutes, rules, ordinances, or orders which affect leasing, printing,
purchasing, travel, and the condition of employment and the compensation of employees. For the
purposes of this Executive Order, "necessary action in coping with the emergency" means any
emergency mitigation, response, or recovery action: (1) prescribed in the State Comprehensive
Emergency Management Plan ("CEMP"); or (2) ordered by the State Coordinating Officer. The
requirements of sections 252.46 and 120.54, Florida Statutes, shall not apply to any such
suspension issued by a State agency; however, no such suspension shall remain in effect beyond
the expiration of this Executive Order, to include any extensions.
4
C. In accordance with section 465.0275, Florida Statutes, pharmacists may dispense
up to a 30-day emergency prescription refill of maintenance medication to persons who reside in
an area or county covered under this Executive Order and to emergency personnel who have been
activated by their state and local agency but who do not reside in an area or county covered by this
Executive Order.
D. In accordance with section 252.38, Florida Statutes, each political subdivision
within the State of Florida may waive the procedures and formalities otherwise required of the
political subdivision by law pertaining to:
1) Performance of public work and taking whatever prudent action is
necessary to ensure the health, safety, and welfare of the community;
2) Entering into contracts; however, political subdivisions are cautioned
against entering into time and materials contracts without ceiling as defined by 2 CFR 200.3180)
or cost plus percentage contracts as defined by 2 CFR 200.323(d);
3) Incurring obligations;
4) Employment of permanent and temporary workers;
5) Utilization of volunteer workers;
6) Rental of equipment;
7) Acquisition and distribution, with or without compensation, of supplies,
materials, and facilities; and,
8) Appropriation and expenditure of public funds.
E. All State agencies responsible for the use of State buildings and facilities may close
such buildings and facilities in those portions of the State affected by this emergency, to the extent
necessary to meet this emergency. I direct each State agency to report the closure of any State
5
building or facility to the Secretary of the Department of Management Services. Under the
authority contained in section 252.36, Florida Statutes, I direct each County to report the closure
of any building or facility operated or maintained by the County or any political subdivision therein
to the Secretary of the Department of Management Services. Furthermore, I direct the Secretary
of the Department of Management Services to:
1) Maintain an accurate and up-to-date list of all such closures; and,
2) Provide that list daily to the State Coordinating Officer.
Section 5. I find that the demands placed upon the funds appropriated to the agencies of
the State of Florida and to local agencies are unreasonably great and the funds currently available
may be inadequate to pay the costs of coping with this emergency. In accordance with section
252.37(2), Florida Statutes, I direct that sufficient fiends be made available, as needed, by
transferring and expending moneys appropriated for other purposes, moneys from unappropriated
surplus funds, or from the Budget Stabilization Fund.
Section 6. All State agencies entering emergency final orders or other final actions in
response to this emergency shall advise the State Coordinating Officer contemporaneously or as
soon as practicable.
Section 7. Medical professionals and workers, social workers, and counselors with good
and valid professional licenses issued by states other than the State of Florida may render such
services in Florida during this emergency for persons affected by this emergency with the
condition that such services be rendered to such persons free of charge, and with the further
condition that such services be rendered under the auspices of the American Red Cross or the
Florida Department of Health.
2
Section 8. All activities taken by the Director of the Division of Emergency Management
and the State Health Officer and Surgeon General with respect to this emergency before the
issuance of this Executive Order are ratified. This Executive Order shall expire sixty days from
this date unless extended.

A.5 EXPERIENCE OF THE PROPOSER 1 18
The iconic new 35th Street Pedestrian Bridge is a unique mono -cable, selfanchoring suspension structure
that crosses Lake Shore Drive and Metra tracks, reconnecting Bronzeville with Chicago's lakefront. At
620 feet in length, it is the city's longest pedestrian bridge, and one of only a few mono -cable,
self -anchored bridges of this type in the US.
The design uses a single suspension cable extending to each end of the bridge and a reverse horizontal
curve that provides expanded panoramic views. The design included roadway and drainage engineering
for pavement reconstruction on the adjacent streets.
To make the bridge more enticing to
pedestrians, the western approach is
strategically aligned with 35th Street to
make the bridge visible from a distance.
As the bridge crosses over the Metra
tracks and Lake Shore Drive, a reverse
horizontal curve has been added to the
alignment to provide for expanded
panoramic views of Burnham Park,
Lake Michigan and the Chicago skyline
for pedestrians crossing the bridge.

A.5 EXPERIENCE OF THE PROPOSER 1 19
The curvature induced in the bridge from this alignment creates an interesting visual effect — to the users,
no view is the same as you travel across the bridge. This curvature also offers an opportunity to take
advantage of some unique structural features to accommodate the unusual alignment.
The most evident structural illusion is
created from the use of a single
suspension cable extending to each end
of the bridge rather than the more typical
arrangement of a symmetrical pair of
suspension cables. The "mono -cable" is
intentionally aligned and supports the
outsides of the curve on the respective
spans.
Soaring over 120 feet above Lake Shore
Drive, the central pylon can be viewed
from numerous vantage points as one
journeys across the bridge and adjacent
lakefront path — offering a striking
contrast to the downtown skyline. The
pylon also facilitates the mono -cable
geometry.
Given its urbanized setting, the bridge required outreach to a number of stakeholders and local entities,
including the local alderman, Chicago Park District and the local historical society. Cooperation with the
Archdiocese of Chicago and the local historical society was essential given the adjacent Archdiocese
facility and Steven A. Douglas Monument Park on the west landing of the bridge

A.S EXPERIENCE OF THE PROPOSER I 21
EXP performed Phase I planning, Phase II design and Phase III construction engineering and
architectural services for the Van Buren Street Footbridge and North Stairs restoration over the existing
Metra Tracks in Grant Park. The Van Buren Street Footbridge is one of a number of bridges and
amenities constructed in Grant Park in 1926. The location of the bridge is situated directly over the Metra
Station adjacent to Michigan Avenue at Van Buren Street. The existing three -span structure is 205 feet
long.
Phase I services included field investigations and development of a Bridge Condition Report. Due to the
age of the existing structure and advanced deterioration identified in the field investigations, the BCR
recommended reconstruction of the balustrades, redecking of the bridge, structural repairs to the
superstructure framing, reconstruction and restoration of street lighting, as well as repairs to other
components of park structures such as stairs, sidewalk, and realignment of a rostral column.
Phase II services included all necessary work for the development of Construction drawings and
Technical Specifications. This encompassed; structural load rating, structural and foundation analysis and
design for the bridge, photometrics and lighting design, utility research and surveys, research and
coordination with Illinois Historic Preservation Agency (IHPA), stakeholder coordination and permitting.
EXP also performed Phase III construction engineering for the restoration project. This work included
permitting, site observations, shop drawing submittals and reviews, RFI management, coordination and
review of completed work.

A.S EXPERIENCE OF THE PROPOSER 1 23
EXP designed a new movable bridge across the Little Chute Canal and Fox River lock system leading to
the Village's Island Park. The Little Chute Canal Bridge replacement consists of a unique movable lift
structure reflecting the Village of Little Chute's Dutch heritage. The modern Dutch -style single leaf
pedestrian lift bridge provides access to the island while also accommodating canal navigation.
EXP's structural, mechanical and electrical engineers designed a windmill style lifting arm with hydraulic
and mechanical controls with sufficient counter weights to raise and lower the structure across the lock
opening. The superstructure replaced as part of this project makes the bridge movable once again.
The main span of the bridge is 43 feet crossing a 35.5-foot-wide channel. The clear width of the path is 15
feet. The movable span consists of a heel trunnion bascule leaf balanced via an overhead counterweight.
The balance arm supporting the counterweight is connected to the bascule leaf by a pair of hangers near
the tip of the leaf, and is supported on overhung trunnions at the top of a pair of pylons. The bascule leaf,
pylons, drive system, power and control systems are directly mounted on bascule pier. Another end of the
leaf rests over the rest pier. The bridge drive system consists of pair of hydraulic cylinders powered by
hydraulic power units.

A.7 EXPERIENCE OF THE PROJECT MANAGER 1 33
City of Miami Solicitation RFQ 19-20-031
The iconic new 35th Street Pedestrian Bridge is a unique mono -cable, selfanchoring suspension
structure that crosses Lake Shore Drive and Metra tracks, reconnecting Bronzeville with Chicago's
lakefront. At 620 feet in length, it is the city's longest pedestrian bridge, and one of only a few
mono -cable, self -anchored bridges of this type in the US.
The design uses a single suspension cable extending to each end of the bridge and a reverse
horizontal curve that provides expanded panoramic views. The design included roadway and drainage
engineering for pavement reconstruction on the adjacent streets.
To make the bridge more enticing to pedestrians, the western approach is strategically aligned with
35th Street to make the bridge visible from a distance. As the bridge crosses over the Metra tracks and
Lake Shore Drive, a reverse horizontal curve has been added to the alignment to provide for expanded
panoramic views of Burnham Park, Lake Michigan and the Chicago skyline for pedestrians crossing
the bridge.
The curvature induced in the bridge from this alignment creates an interesting visual effect — to the
users, no view is the same as you travel across the bridge. This curvature also offers an opportunity to
take advantage of some unique structural features to accommodate the unusual alignment. The most
evident structural illusion is created from the use of a single suspension cable extending to each end of
the bridge rather than the more typical arrangement of a symmetrical pair of suspension cables. The
"mono -cable" is intentionally aligned and supports the outsides of the curve on the respective spans.
Soaring over 120 feet above Lake Shore Drive, the central pylon can be viewed from numerous
vantage points as one journeys across the bridge and adjacent lakefront path — offering a striking
contrast to the downtown skyline. The pylon also facilitates the mono -cable geometry.
Given its urbanized setting, the bridge required outreach to a number of stakeholders and local entities,
including the local alderman, Chicago Park District and the local historical society. Cooperation with the
Archdiocese of Chicago and the local historical society was essential given the adjacent Archdiocese
facility and Steven A. Douglas Monument Park on the west landing of the bridge.

provided by this confidential client. EXP performed 3D finite element modeling of the bascule and
flanking spans, and prepared load ratings for AASHTO inventory and operating levels, as well as
Florida Legal Loads and several transporter loads that are unique to this
confidential client.
In addition, the client requested a D-rating analysis be performed based on several operations and
maintenance funding scenarios to determine at which point in the future the various components of the
bridge would not rate for load carrying capacity. EXP also performed an assessment of the existing
mechanical components of the bascule span for the D-rating analysis.

A.9 EXPERIENCE OF THE LEAD ARCHITECT/ DESIGNER 1 48
PROVIDENCE RIVER
PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE
PROVIDENCE, RI
The new Providence River Pedestrian Bridge reworks abandoned freeway
infrastructure (1-195) to connect five prominent neighborhoods and institutions
within the city. Acting as a pedestrian center, the bridge not only performs
as a practical connector between all regions, it offers multiple programmatic
interventions to encourage community connection and social engagement
among city residents. The project captures a potential much larger than that
of a pure connector, it leverages integrated program elements to serve as a
mediator between urban and ecological spaces, allowing east and west to
become a singular public space.
In addition to establishing a visual symbol of renewal, the Providence River
Pedestrian Bridge also provides access to over 40 acres of prime waterfront
real estate that was freed up when interstate 1-195 was relocated. So while
the history of the area will remain embedded in the bridge's foundations,
this new gateway will connect the site to the rest of the city and give it a new
lease of life for future generations.

LTU EAST
RESIDENCE HALL
SOUTHFIELD, MI
Over the last decade, Lawrence Technological University's Southfield campus
has increasingly admitted a student body desiring a more vibrant campus life
experience; turning the once commuter school into a University with a more
robust on -campus experience. Impacted strongly by LTU's recent addition of
varsity athletics as well as an influx of international students, student resident
growth has created an immediate need for on -campus student housing
options. This new 300+ bed residential flagship for the University is now
leveraged during the recruitment of prospective students, while utilizing it
to support the University's many design programs and student -body social
groups.
Located in the center of campus, the East Residence Hall unifies three
separate campus districts previously lacking a well-defined urban strategy. By
creating a pedestrian walkway and courtyard experience through the center
of the building, the East Residence Hall defines the central residential district
while connecting the north and south campus districts. Weaving a variety
of community spaces through the building program aims to enhance the
experience of student interaction and learning.

Dade Boulevard, located in Miami Beach, is situated alongside the Collins Canal. It is an east -west
connecting road and crosses many of the main avenues on the barrier island. As part of a newly
constructed bike path along the road, shoreline stabilization was required.
Cummins Cederberg was retained to design the 2,670 feet of steel sheet pile bulkhead along the canal,
including a concrete cap. Due to the proximity to the road, a concrete crash barrier capable of
withstanding vehicle impacts was incorporated as well.
The bulkhead design was further complicated by extensive below ground utilities in the area. These
included main sewer, water, and high -voltage electrical lines connecting the northern and southern
parts of Miami Beach. Due to the age of the utilities, limited information relative to dimensions,
locations, and depth were available. In these cases, the contractor and engineer were required to hand
excavate and physically locate the lines to maintain a safe buffer during pile driving.
The required buffer produced opportunities for unique and innovative structural designs in order to
create a wall in the areas of the utilities without driving piles, while still capable of retaining the relatively
large earth and vehicle loads.
The south side of the canal generally consisted of older residences, approximately 50 feet from the
proposed bulkhead. In order to ensure no impacts to these structures during vibratory installation of the
steel sheet piles, Cummins Cederberg conducted vibration monitoring during construction

Seahaven is Fort Lauderdale's premiere luxury protected harbor with 40-slips for superyachts up to 250
feet long and clubhouse facilities. The marina is located upland of the Dania Cut -Off Canal and was
dredged to create a new marina basin connected to the canal. Cummins Cederberg was the Engineer
of Record for this project and provided construction support services.
Approximately 1,200 feet of new bulkhead was designed for the deep -water yacht basin, consisting of
steel sheet piling with concrete batter piles and reinforced concrete capping beam. Design criteria for a
floating dock was also prepared including mooring loads anticipated by vessel size and wind speed.
Construction administration services, including review of contractor payment, site observations with
reports, pile driving logs, materials testing, final inspection, and environmental permit close out services
were also provided to ensure the completion of the project in accordance with all engineering
specifications.

The Sunset Harbour Yacht Club is a 125-slip luxury marina located in Miami Beach. The marina caters
to vessels ranging from 45 to 150 feet in length, and consists of concrete slabs, piles, and caps, all
which had experienced significant deterioration.
Cummins Cederberg conducted an above and below water structural inspection of the existing dock
components to ensure the dock could withstand the load associated with the larger yachts. The in
depth inspection noted the magnitude and location of the various defects observed.
The team noted an existing wave attenuation designed incorrectly was further accelerating the
deterioration, incoming waves would reflect resulting in increased salt sprays to the dock areas.
Cummins Cederberg engineers are trained to not only identify the deterioration, but also pinpoint the
cause of it.
Based on the inspection findings, Cummins Cederberg designed the recommended repairs and
processed the proposed marine works through environmental regulatory agencies (DERM, FDEP, and
USACE).
In addition, Cummins Cederberg assisted with the bid solicitation process, marine contractor selection,
and construction administration. A Cummins Cederberg senior marine engineer stayed in close contact
with the contractor crew to ensure repairs were conducted correctly, including the removal and cleaning
of deteriorated material. Construction was performed on time and within 10% of the original
construction estimate.

Influent Pump Station and Gravity Main
Installation, City of Homestead, FL
The City of Homestead's PS 1 is located in the west-
ern portion of the City and is responsible for col-
lecting/ transmitting wastewater from its own col-
lection basin, as well as 16 other pump stations, to
the Homestead WWTP for treatment/disposal. The
station runtime exceeded the permitted 10-hour
runtime criteria established by County Code which
placed the station under moratorium. This morato-
rium also affects all 16 upstream pump stations, as
PS 1 re -pumps them to the WWTP. It was not feasi-
ble to perform the necessary improvements to PS
1 in its current location. Hazen was retained to
design improvements that would eliminate the need
for PS 1 and provide an influent pump station (IPS)
at the WWTP. During the evaluation process hydrau-
lic modeling efforts showed that the installation of
a 36-inch gravity main from the PS 1 to the WWTP
IPS would eliminate the need for PS 1 and PS 21,
another regional pump station, allowing wastewater
from both collections to flow via gravity to the plant.
As Project Manager, Mr. Kish participated in/oversaw
the evaluation, design and permitting (City, Mi-
ami -Dade County Public Works, FDOT) of the force
main as well as bid and award services. As Construc-
tion Manager, he reviewed shop drawings, conduct-
ed periodic field visits, approved payment applica-

present for testing, reviewed as -built drawing and
issued the certification of completion for the proj-
ect.

Waterfront Adaptation at Jose Marti Park, Miami, Florida. The adaptive
redesign of this 13-acre, multi -use recreational space on the Miami River explores
ways in which the park can minimize tidal flood impacts to the surrounding
neighborhood, adapt to sea -level rise, and enhance waterfront access to
residents. Given its physically and socially vulnerable location between the River
and Little Havana, a low-lying, low-income Hispanic community, a participatory
design process emphasizing community goals is critical for success. The Jose
Marti Park Redesign will serve as a model for resilient waterfront parks that can
adapt to current and future flood risks associated with Climate Change and Sea -
Level Rise. Jannek is leading the inundation modeling, and waterfront
engineering design, while the Cummins Cederberg team is also leading the
environmental permitting, coordination with FIND, and grant management.

Project Experience
*T136-John's Creek Greenway, Fulton County, GA
Association (APTA)
Mr. Flint served as Senior Structural Engineer for work to provide bridge design and
• National Society of Professional
hydraulic analysis for two pedestrian bridges along the John's Creek Greenway. The
Engineers (NSPE)
first pedestrian bridge spanned the tributary to John's creek, adjacent to the Standard
Golf Club property and Medlock Bridge Road. TYLI designed a new structure,
• American Society of Civil Engineers
including the foundation and profiles for a steadfast bridge. The hydraulic analysis
(ASCE)
was limited to verifying the capacity of the existing hydraulic opening of a six-foot by
seven -foot concrete box culvert crossing underneath Medlock Bridge Road.
The second pedestrian bridge involved performing a structural inspection of an
existing 60-inch by 72-inch corrugated metal culvert crossing old Medlock Bridge
Road. TYLI recommended improvements for inlet and outlet control, hydraulics, and
safety railings.
*RG&E Pedestrian Bridge over Genesee River, Rochester, NY
Mr. Flint served as Project Manager. The team provided RG&E with a 270-foot span
pedestrian bridge across the Genesee River between the Lower and Middle Falls in
the City of Rochester. Various alternatives were preliminarily designed and submitted
including a three -span arch, three -span "grasshopper" structure and a single -span
prefabricated modified bow truss. The grasshopper design was progressed, and
included reinforced concrete abutments and support leg foundations. The structure
would consist of steel plate girders with a concrete deck and decorative railing. The
structure was approximately 12 feet wide and will be sloped at 23% to conform to all
ADA standards and to assist in achieving the 35-foot grade differential between the
east and west abutments.
*Route 65 Pedestrian Bridge Replacement, Honeoye Falls, NY
Project Manager responsible for the structural analysis; design of foundations;
development of erection drawings; and monitoring construction for a 160-foot,
steel truss pedestrian bridge. Also developed a sanitary sewer support structure,
which fastened the sewer line to the temporary bridge. The second portion of this
project involved the development of erection drawings and lifting sequence for the

construction of a 65-foot, precast, segmental arch bridge. The unique design and extreme weight of the central arch structure
required careful layout and sequencing of crane locations and pick -points for the erection phase of the project.
*Feeder Canal Bridge Rehabilitation, Canandaigua, NY
Mr. Flint served as Project Manager for this City of Canandaigua project involving the design and inspection of repairs to a stone
arch bridge. The design included removal and replacement of the concrete parapet walls, reconstruction of the asphalt pavement
section, and new sidewalk installation. Due to severe deterioration of the mortar joints in the stone, cleaning and re -pointing were
included. Pressure grouting was utilized to fill the voids behind the stone. The arch was also cleaned by pressure washing to restore
it to its original state.
*South River Corridor Pedestrian Bridge, Trail and Infrastructure Planning & Design, City of Rochester, NY
Mr. Flint served as Principal -in -Charge and Project Manager responsible for planning, design, and construction phase monitoring for
a project designed to link the southwestern neighborhoods of the City of Rochester with the University of Rochester community
on the east side of the Genesee River. Work included: planning, conceptual design and environmental assessment for a new
$2.5M pedestrian bridge linking the two entities; conceptual design, coordination with involved agencies and Engineering Planning
Reports for the entire trailway system between the Genesee Valley Park and Ford Street (1.5 miles); and Conceptual Design,
Environmental Assessment, and planning studies for re -development of the neighborhood adjacent to the pedestrian trailway
along the Genesee River. Planned development included such mixed uses as commercial, industrial, single family and multiple unit
housing. Planning effort included conceptual design of infrastructure improvements associated with the redevelopment, street
geometric, intersection and traffic improvements, repairs to the Genesee River retaining walls and boat docks and slips to support
use of the river. Several public hearings were held as part of the design process.
*Buffalo Road Temporary Pedestrian Bridge: Sealand Contractors Corporation, Rochester, NY
Retained as Project Manager to analyze and design a temporary structure supporting an earth excavation, construction equipment,
and an adjacent 36-inch water line located only five feet from the excavation. Existing rock cuts below the level of the required
sheeting made the design especially tricky. An innovative, yet extremely simple method of excavating and pouring gravity -type
retaining walls was used for the shallow excavations. (1993)
*Eastman Kodak Park 1329-1312 Pedestrian Bridge, Rochester, NY
Served as Principal -in -Charge responsible for multi -discipline project involving the construction of an elevated pedestrian bridge
connecting Buildings 29 and 12. Work consisted of intensive field verification of existing conditions, multi -discipline design of
elevated pedestrian structure, and coordination with ongoing Building 12 / 29 renovations. (1992)
*Monroe County Pedestrian Activity Safety Study, Monroe County, NY
FRA, a T.Y. Lin International Company was retained by the Monroe County Department of Transportation to complete the first
project of its kind for the area. Work was focused on identifying problem areas and providing recommendations to both enhance
the pedestrian and bicycle environment throughout the County and eliminate the occurrence of accidents. Mr. Flint served as
Principal -in -Charge for this project.
The study area for the project included twenty-five intersections within Monroe County, with the highest occurrence of accidents
occurring in the urban areas, specifically the City of Rochester. The study examined accident records acquired from 911 emergency
responses to determine the cause and severity of each accident cluster.

Existing Conditions
The 1-395 Pedestrian Baywalk and Bikeway Bridge is impacted
by numerous existing conditions and complex constraints
of a dynamic nature due to ongoing and changing projects
and the ever changing environment surrounding the site. The
onset of the project will commence with data collection
efforts, background modeling and drafting so when the
initial program is well defined, the design team can begin
design development.
Initial data collection efforts may include, among others:
• Gathering all existing plans and details of in -situ
design elements — walls, abutments, approaches, new
design plans, etc.
• Bathymetric survey, and cross section definition of
the channel from the wall out in 25 ft increments
• Sea wall cores
• Tidal data and storm surge records
• Ecological surveys and marine wildlife surveys
• Cross sections along the trail under the Causeway
and topographic data collection to the south
property line of the Park to the south and the North
Property line of the Genting property to the North.
• Right of way / easements and clear definitions of
public and private lands
• Utility surveys through the project area and definition
of sources and drop points for power, storm drainage
and others
8i3i202q_]An?iq — existing and planned in the vicinity
• Signage survey
• Miami Dade Building Code review and evaluation
These elements of existing conditions will serve to inform
the design team of the physical and design parameters to
be incorporated into the plans for the project. Only after
these physical elements and design parameters are overlaid
on the initial visioning for the project, can we consider the
Programming Phase of the project complete.
Stakeholder Engagement
Stakeholder engagement is a critical component in all of our
projects and is a continuous process throughout the design
and construction of the project. The EXP team has recent
and relevant experience working with the City, Downtown
Miami Development Authority, FDOT Perez Art Museum
Miami and The Genting Group.

The EXP team will work with the City, Miami DDA, FDOT and
community stakeholders to design a multi -modal bridge,
and develop this project from conceptual design, through
schematic and design development, all the way to 100%
construction documents and permitting approvals, with the
end goal of a bid document package.
• Architectural Design of the Baywalk Bridge is required
to blend in with architectural themes and planning
concepts with PAMM and Genting stakeholders.
• Architectural design will be reviewed by the City,
DDA , PAMM and Genting
• The distance between the two sites is 180 linear feet,
and any proposed bridge will have an approximate
run length of 500 linear feet.
• Permitting approval are required from the United
States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), the Florida
Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), and
the Miami -Dade County Division of Environmental
Resources Management (DERM), which is part
of Miami-Dade's Department of Regulatory and
Economic Resources (RER).
Community Engagement
Through a collaborative, transparent and informative design
process, inclusive of neighboring residents and businesses,
government officials and agencies, quasi -government and
community organizations, and other stakeholders, we will
foster public ownership of the 395 pedestrian -bike bridge
and position it as a destination and a model for connective
public space.
Public Outreach is important to better understand the
context of a project. Our team excels at collecting data and
translating that data into technical recommendations. With
Public Outreach, citizens and key stakeholders, the context
of a project has additional meaning helping us improve our
understanding of the possibilities. With the advantage of a
strong technical background our track record demonstrates
a higher level of success when communicating with the
public. Our facilitation simplifies the message to common
language (Plain Language Initiative) without compromising
the technical significance or impact of a project.
EXP involvement with the design of the Wynwood
Streetscape Master Plan discovered that meeting with
stakeholders and gathering community input and feedback
from the onset of the project proved positive to reinforce
community buy -in. The realization of this feedback was
recognized as a powerful design tool,accurately addressing
the needs and desires of the client and users. Defined
topics for public meetings and focus groups kept outreach
extremely productive, and the project on track in terms of
scope and schedule. Our community engagement process
anticipates we will follow a similar path for the 1-395
Pedestrian Baywalk and Bikeway Bridge.

Experience
The manifestation of the Pedestrian Baywalk and Bikeway
Bridge demonstrates a powerful potential for social impact,
one most significantly measured by the ambition and quality
of experience. Outlined below are nine key criteria —
gleaned from the goals in the project brief and added
based on the team's professional expertise— to position a
successful design approach to the project.
Multi -Modal
At the earliest stages of community engagement, a Mobility
Integration Initiative will be introduced outlining a process
to prioritize modes of transportation. With modes of transit
continuing to expand their horizons, developing clarity
around appropriate intentions and zones is increasingly
vital for safety and encouraging diverse utilization. Within
the sphere of community and stakeholder engagement, a
process of education and prioritization will be integrated
for a clear strategy related to pedestrian activity, passive
recreation, sedentary observation, wheelchairs, strollers,
bicycles, skateboards, in -line and rollerskates, E-scooters,
segways and watercraft. Following prioritization, strategies
can be introduced for a matrix of where to create spatial
delineation, texturing of surfaces and navigation cues to
allow for transit mixing or specific zones for safe passage.
The integration of a multitude of transit options introduces
a healthy vitality to the public realm, and a clarity around
the use of mobility establishes a peaceful coexistence.

Social Programming
Outstanding place making distinguishes itself through the
uniqueness and diversity of a visitor's experience while
engaging with an environment, creating a center of social
gravity that is irresistible to the populous within its sphere
of connection. Successful destinations deliver a multi -
sensorial encounter that immerses an individual within a
deeply emotive experience, creating vivid memories. The art
of designing such a space embraces programming through
a lens of blending the understanding of physical construct
with the potentials for varied social engagement.
The Biscayne Bay waterfront presents opportunities for
a wide spectrum of involvement ranging from serene
contemplation to high energy cultural vibrancy. A thoughtful
orchestration of this environment considers moments for
specificity and flexibility, a place for all and a place for the
individual. Imagine a destination with a living shoreline, a
refuge for children to engage with manatees, an interpretive
ecosystem integrating the natural habitat of mangroves,
a respite for coffee while taking in a sunrise over the bay,
launching a kayak out to explore the ecology, an intimate
landscape for a marriage proposal— and in complementary
chorus, weaving into the fabric of Maurice A. Ferre Park and
the museum district to expand the uniqueness of a venue
for cultural events teeming with energy from waterfront
exhibitions, parades, culinary activities, and performances.
These encounters enchant the senses entirely through sight,
sound, smell, touch and taste; and heighten our sense of

kinaesthesia through the exploration of mobility with a
synthesized approach to connectivity.
Public Art and Sculpture
The integration of sculpture, interactive art and light, and
vibrant surface installations from local or international artists
into the bridge design stages the potential for an artistic
gesture that is not only iconic, but works in a myriad of ways
to enhance the structure and landscape of the project. Our
team has extensive experience with the integration of Art
in Public Places, and we view art as a pivotal participant in
design as whole; never as an afterthought or placeholder,
but rather as an intrinsic, living and active participant. The
collaboration between artist and designer is one that can
manifest a design beautifully supportive of the vision and
initiatives proposed, allowing for a fully activated space
through dynamic lighting, art and public space.
Sustainability and Ecology
We believe in a highly innovative approach to integrating
natural and urban systems, creating an environment in which
pedestrians can simultaneously be inspired by the spirit of a
living and breathing terrain and be energized by the sparkling
activity of a bustling downtown. Through introducing a
salt marsh into the fabric of the bridge, as well as the use
of plants that are acclimatized to the urban waterfront
conditions and able to thrive in such an environment
without extensive care, we'll begin to lay the foundation
for an ecosystem that will blur the lines between these two
systems.
To entice natural wildlife to the scene, the edges of the
bridge will be lined with riprap and boulders as they meet
8/3/2020 11:53 AM
the bay and provide a habitat for fish and other wildlife
to flourish. Naturally sustainable integrations such as
relocation of coral, rain gardens for stormwater mitigation
and mangrove planters to foster juvenile fish habitat can
serve not only to care for and cooperate with the natural
environment, but create a stunning assimilation with nature
in its purest forms.
Low growing cordgrass and tidal marsh planting material
cherish the preservation of views from the steps to the bay,
and the introduction of planters utilized as "living ocean
labs" present a brilliant opportunity for the City to partner
with other institutions to collaborate with the site as a
research area for living shorelines. Groups such as Patricia
and Phillip Frost Museum of Science, Rosenstiel School of
Marine and Atmospheric Science, and several other local
institutions can be engaged to assist the City in a dive into
how remediation and mitigation projects work in the bay.
Greenspace
Our aim is to compose a greenspace in which an abundance
of wind and water can play with the natural environment,
creating a vibrating and inviting yet peaceful energy. Design,
sustainability and economic viability work together in
our design to create an equilibrium perfectly created for
construction feasibility. Picture the marriage of function and
imagination to create a project that is refreshingly new, yet
grounded in and connected to the local environment and its
surroundings.
This bridge has an opportunity to express itself holistically
through the greenspace, celebrated in its impact on the
environment and influence on user experience. Our team
will leverage its green design expertise to create a landmark

that is sensitive and responsive to its context and climate,
yet groundbreaking in its approach and manifestation.
Water
This site sets up an incredible opportunity for public
education and a raised awareness on the importance
of preserving one of our largest natural resources: The
River of Grass. A key component to the design will be a
manufactured estuary from collected stormwater that
elegantly mimics those of the Everglades, where freshwater
blended with the seawaters of Biscayne Bay to create a
wetland ecosystem that cleaned the water before entering
the bay. Artfully coined a `water garden,' this integration
allows environmental sympathy and cultural education to
gracefully meet.
Safety and Monitoring
The most fundamental equity urban design should deliver is
public space that stimulates spatial confidence amongst all
ages, genders and ethnicities. The boldness associated with
a comfortable freedom to navigate the public realm without
concern over safety is accomplished by a sense of control
over, and possession of, space. Our approach considers four
key design strategies to promote spatial confidence: Optics,
Options, Ownership, and Accessibility.
Optics
The first perception absorbed to initiate the instinct of
spatial avoidance is a poor range of visual clarity. A feeling
of vulnerability kicks in, particularly for pedestrians, when
aspects of a space are concealed or hidden. The design
of clear optical navigation as a visitor progresses through
public space is critical for introducing a notion of spatial
confidence through a stable understanding of surroundings.
8/3/2020 11:53 AM
In addition, these conditions must be met during all seasons
and throughout all times of day. Although view angles are
the foundational elements of visual clarity, the importance
of contrast and a balanced sense of light and dark should
always be considered. Interactive and ambient levels of
lighting surfaces improve awareness and fashion a level of
curiosity over concern.
Options
Through optical awareness, people intuitively develop a logic
of options for navigation. Spatial confidence arises out of an
innate sense that a traveler's options remain open to change
course and that the ease of transition in options is not
compromised by proceeding in a particular direction. The
greater the perceived level of variability, the stronger the
degree of personal security.
Ownership
One of the most significant factors in creating spatial
confidence is the development of a personal sense of
ownership. Inclusive community engagement fosters a
sense of stewardship at the start of the project process,
and the realization of an attractive, well maintained public
space increases the appeal for individual connection —
specifically, the desire to be associated as a resident with
a permanent sense of ownership or a visitor who desires a
recorded memory of an experience, sharing it with friends.
The positive attractor condition acquired through a personal
sense of ownership deters the prospect of undesirable
behavior.
Accessibility
Finally, an aspect vital to spatial confidence and social
equity is design that welcomes all. A more familiar and
essential understanding of accessibility relates to physical
mobility, but a comprehensive strategy aspires for complete

inclusiveness. A psychological invitation to the public
realm possesses elements that engage community, provide
purpose, extend communication beyond language barriers
and present an intuitive understanding of how to explore its
programming, including personal creativity. Visitors are not
impeded by language barriers or symbolism that introduces
a notion of exclusion. Urban design with an inclusive appeal
encourages the broadest form of stewardship through
diverse ownership.
AV / Lighting
In considering the design effects of lighting options on this
destination, there are two different aesthetic experiences
or views to take into consideration: the view of the
bridge from afar, and the experience of the pedestrian
on the bridge itself --emotionally and intellectually. High
quality architectural lighting design is achieved not by
calling attention to the fixtures themselves, but through
highlighting the brilliance of the structure and accenting its
best features.
When architecturally lighting the bridge ellevation, the
lighting should be a seamless extension of the architectural
concept --allowing the structure to share its own story.
The design should include strategies such as static white
light, static colored light, or dynamic color changing
elements; but if a more charismatic design is preferred, a
slow changing shift of tones or changes triggered around
specific holidays or events throughout the year should be
integrated. With regards to the pedestrian's experience,
the lighting strategy should most importantly provide
sufficient vertical and horizontal footcandles for safety,
visual acuity and minimization of tripping hazards. To avoid
overly bright or harsh light, fixtures should be shielded to
8/3/2020 11:53 AM
prevent any glare. The aesthetic of the fixtures used for the
bridge walkway lighting should flow tastefully and in tandem
with the exterior bridge lighting concept to create a single
overarching design aesthetic.
In addition to the aesthetic design criteria, the proper
technical criteria must always be taken into account for
the lighting design to thrive. As a baseline, all light fixtures
should use the latest in LED and control technology, with
long life ratings and high color rendering for rendering
visual acuity. Due to the nature of the salt water corrosive

environment of the project site, we recommend all fixtures be IP68 wet location rated with marine grade housings and finishes to
minimize degradation of the fixtures over time, and thus minimize maintenance.
Above all, the lighting needs to convey the intent of the architectural design eloquently at night, bring life and weaving magic
into the fabric of the bridge while meeting or exceeding the necessary design requirements and fitting within the budget of the
project.
Signage and Wayfinding
Wayfinding is incredibly important to the identity of a project, not only in that it offers orientation and perspective to both the
transient and local populations, but also in that it carries a branding identity with it, shaping the pedestrian's impression of the
space even prior to experiencing it directly. Akin to a "first impression," wayfinding techniques are short but vital opportunities to
both direct pedestrians and provide them with an introduction to the character of a project.
Carefully thought out environmental signage and graphic design will supplement the proposed design by providing the public with
vibrant, informative guidance that will serve as an educational tool regarding the space's ecology and environmental properties,
as well as leading people through the space while enhancing their understanding of and relationship to all surrounding places of
interest. Our team's experience with similar projects, wayfinding, project identity, safety, utility signage and educational signage will
be an integral part of the project's design and branding identity in shaping the significance of this destination.

Connectivity
The impact of a collaborative and inclusive design process
will yield a source of community pride, befitting the
Biscayne Bay, and a destination for the world to experience.
The aspiration of connectivity should be a tapestry that
will weave seamlessly into the existing Baywalk, Maurice
A. Ferre Park and the Genting-owned site as a physical
solution to connectivity; however, more than mere linkage,
the Pedestrian Baywalk and Bikeway Bridge merits an
opportunity for communal binding through the interpretive
and immersive experiences illustrated outlined previously.
Within the context of our current global social climate, the
human connection to the environment and to each other
is arguably the most critical and anthropologically the most
powerful.
Economic Development
Bridges carry the potential to function as vital connections
for our communities, creating an experiential journey to
new destinations and linking our environment. While this
more functional aspect is both inherent in the design and
significant to the outcome, the impact of establishing
a landmark and shaping a city's identity in conjunction
with the functionality of connectivity and access to
the waterfront will be a remarkable catalyst to spurring
economic development in the area as it cultivates a more
resilient coastline and city. The level of ambition and
meaning derived from the solution will have a direct impact
on the size and extent of the economic ripple.

Providence born through a range of new co -located
investments near the landings of the $21.9 million structure.
Examples include:
Brown University's Medical School, South Street
Landing,
Peti Laboratory and New School of Professional Studies
are now linked directly to its main campus, while
Johnson and Wales University and Rhode Island School
of Design (RISD) are also fused by the new bridge.
Notable new residential developments in the area
include South Street Landing, a 423,000sf residential
development by Brown University that includes the
"River House" and a 744-car parking garage. Nearby it is
Chestnut Commons, a 111,000sf mixed -use development
with 92 residential units. Three other projects, all mixed -
use residential tower complexes, are also currently
proposed for the bridge's vicinity.
Significant non-residential developments nearby the
newly bustling area include the 71,000sf John J. Bowen
Center for Science + Innovation and the 200,000sf
Wexford Science + Technology Center. A new hotel is
presently in the works as well.
These new investments and developments reflect the

design serves as a primary activator in a project response.
Creating an environment for optimal health surrounds
not only the goal of nourishing existing plant life, but also
promoting new plant life. Through living shoreline solutions
such as mangroves and riprap, we will nourish the Baywater
with nutrients to maintain adequate oxygen levels for existing
seagrass, and attract new marine life. Introducing absorptive
ground surfaces and increasing the canopy would clean the air
and alleviate the impact of high temperatures for the ultimate
comfort of pedestrians and cyclists.
Beyond consideration of the architectural landscape, a bridge
that goes over and above the merely functional aspects
of its nature is one that instills pedestrians and the entire
surrounding population with an inspiration for activity. In
conversations on health and wellness, movement is incredibly
integral to overall wellbeing and even serves as a catalyst to
improving all areas of life in the wellness sphere. By providing
the city with a bridge that isn't just a connector but a
destination, an event space, an area that inspires walkability
and exercise and teems with energy --you promote a healthy
culture, and thereby a population that is happier and more
resilient, speaking to the active personality of Miami with
direct benefits to human health.
Health and wellness however does not encompass solely
physical health, but also mental wellbeing. The two are
intricately tied together, and while inspiring the community

Project Capabilities + Approach
Approach to Architectural and Engineering Design
The EXP team couldn't be more excited at the prospect of delivering an iconic destination and flexible venue to
the City of Miami through the development of final plans for the 1-395 Pedestrian Baywalk And Bikeway Bridge
Project. The EXP Team considers this project, for the City of Miami, to be one of the most important projects we
have encountered in the last several years. The EXP team view such challenges as tremendous opportunities to use
our creativity, our skills at bringing people together and achieving consensus on individual elements and the basket
of elements that make up the design vocabulary, and our many talented technical specialists to create the most
desirable and useful destination in Miami — the Baywalk at MacArthur Causeway Under/Overlook.
The EXP Team believes there is an opportunity to impactfully change the perception and the value of the Baywalk
project to the City of Miami. Because of the visibility, the complexity, the location of the physical site, the
surrounding design elements and the potential variety of uses and visitors it can attract. Because of the possibilities
to create:
✓ An important and critical connection of the multi -use trail and path
✓ A fully accessible destination for all
✓ Possible compatible interpretive and educational rotating displays, integrated into the approaches and the
destination, tethering the outdoor space directly into the adjacent land use types.
✓ An opportunity for education related to the important and protected marine life and environment
✓ A space that brings the users to the water level
✓ A space that minimizes physical permanent elements in the water
✓ The opportunity to inform users of the key elements of the various viewsheds available at the venue
✓ A multitude of different opportunities to use light and lighting to enhance the user experience; even
create attractions
The Baywalk at MacArthur Causeway Under/Overlook has the potential to be a game changer for the benefit of all
who live and visit the City of Miami.
The EXP team brings over ninety years of International and North American experience to the project. We have led
and delivered these iconic destinations in many of the locations people think of when they contemplate an iconic
public destination. We have assembled a team that meets and exceeds the experience requirements identified in
the RFP; and, to that, we have added what we consider to be other essential skillsets: Marine Structural Engineering,

social. economic and sustainaUe design considerations
The impact of design is perhaps understood even more
when it improves how we move in and around our
communities. Built in 1933, the previous existing crossing
was a deteriorating, non-ADA accessible structure that
did not provide a safe or reliable crossing of Lake Shore
Drive and the railroad tracks: virtually cutting off the
Bronzeville community from the Lakefront.
"Speaking in front or rho old bridge, (Mayor) frfwriuipi
The original goal of the Bridging the Drive competition surd rt was o ccorrrmonrty eyesore, and the new
was to "create civic icons for the City that provide for bridge would be a mirth more welcoming sign ra rrre

lakefront amenities that are uniquely Chicago:' To fulfill this goal, the 35th Street Pedestrian Bridge challenges
conventional pedestrian bridge design, and becomes evidence that a seemingly functional structure can also
make a positive contribution to its environment. As a signature crossing with strong structural features, the
new bridge not only provides an important and much needed connection for both pedestrians and cyclists,
it brings iconic design to an area previously tacking community infrastructure. As an ADA-accessible facility, it
provides universal access for all residents and is a symbol of the growth of the Bronzeville community.

Project Approach
Programming Phase: We believe that the key to thoughtful, successful design begins with listening. The EXP Team will begin
the project by listening:
Starting with listening to our client, the City of Miami, the integrated design team will work to refine the initial set of project
goals.
Next, we will kick off a series of listening sessions to completely understand the plans, concerns, opportunities, schedules
and challenges each of the adjacent and contiguous plans create for the Baywalk at MacArthur Causeway Under/Overlook
project. The number of concurrent activities that involve new construction is significant and, to the extent possible, we want
to use this exercise to create understanding and ultimately support for our solutions.
Next the EXP Team and the City of Miami will map out the initial program for the project, and how it addresses the goals of
the project while respecting and reflecting the input of the Stakeholders
Once complete, the EXP Team will take the initial programming back to the Stakeholders. This does two things: it confirms
we heard their concerns, which develops understanding; and it affirms that we were able to mitigate some of their concerns
but possibly not all. Again, buy -in doesn't mean 100% of an entities concerns can be addressed; but buy -in comes from
making the effort, and creating an understanding as to why not all can be addressed.

The EXP Team will then engage the public in a series of design charettes (number and process TBD). These charettes will
include a presentation of the program elements we consider to be "Bright Lights" — those that are our guideposts and can't
be moved or changed; followed by elements of the design and its vocabulary where input is wanted and needed in the
selections and outcomes. In our experience this method utilizing public design charette assures community engagement and
buy -in without disrupting the process underway.
Concurrent with the listening tour and the design charettes, data collection efforts will be underway, and background
modeling and drafting taking place so that, when the initial program is well defined, the EXP Team can begin design
development. Initial data collection efforts may include, among others:
✓ Gathering all existing plans and details of in -situ design elements — walls, abutments, approaches, new design plans,
etc.
✓ Bathymetric survey, and cross section definition of the channel from the wall out in 25 ft increments
✓ Review of license and land rights agreements
✓ Updates and review of all environmental impacts
✓ Sea wall cores
✓ Tidal data and storm surge records
✓ Ecological surveys and marine wildlife surveys
✓ Cross sections along the trail under the Causeway and topographic data collection to the south property line of
the Park to the south and the North Property line of the Genting property to the North.
✓ Right of way/ easements and clear definitions of public and private lands
✓ Utility surveys trough the project area and definition of sources and drop points for power, storm drainage and
others
✓ Lighting — existing and planned in the vicinity
✓ Signage survey
✓ Miami Dade Building Code review and evaluation
All of these elements of existing conditions will serve to inform the EXP Team of the physical and design parameters to be
incorporated into the plans for the project. Only after these physical elements and design parameters are overlaid on the
initial programming for the project, can we consider the Programming Phase of the project complete.
Design Development/Contract Documents/Procurement/Construction: The EXP team has significant experience on
projects with accelerated design and construction schedules. Our team members are usedaccustomed to working on fast -
track projects with early bid packages for long lead items to facilitate an accelerated implementation schedule. This requires

coordination among disciplines.
As one example, EXP is currently working on an Integrated Operation Center at DFW International Airport.
DFW required the project to be fast tracked to allow operations to commence as soon as possible. EXP developed
design documents to a 30% level, which were then used to solicit Construction Manager proposals. EXP worked
with DFW to evaluate the proposals received and to ensure scope was adequately covered. Once the CM was
selected, EXP worked with the CM to understand any areas they thought could realize cost savings, areas that were
most at risk for cost overruns, and whether any items had long lead times that needed to be advanced sooner
than the rest of the project. Documents were then developed and issued in several separate bid packages to allow
procurement and construction to commence while other details were being finalized. The project is currently under
construction and slated to be completed this summer - on schedule.
Continuity from design to construction is critical to ensure proper execution and to ensure that the design vision is
executed properly. Consistency of personnel helps ensure that the completed project will be what was envisioned
in the final design. Thus, our same team members that are involved in the design of projects will continue to be
involved through the construction.

Value Engineering
The EXP Team brings vast experience in applying the principles of Value Engineering (VE) to complex, multi -faceted
transportation and infrastructure projects including pedestrian bridges in urban environments and coastal zones. The
application of the five phases of traditional value engineering; Speculation (Creative) Phase; Evaluation (Analysis) Phase;
Development Phase (Value Management Proposals); and Presentation Phase (Report/Oral Presentation) are most impactful
in the early phases of the project, before detailed plans had been developed.
Understanding that the project will begin with conceptual plans, developed by others, an initial Value Engineering review
at the highest levels will be helpful. This creative review will be conducted among the entire EXP Team in advance of the
Goal setting meeting with the Client, so that any material conceptual VE issues can be discussed in the context of the goal
setting exercise.
A second opportunity to apply the VE principles will occur near the end of the design development phase, where the
opportunity to critically evaluate individual construction elements or assemblies. The EXP Team anticipates this VE effort
will include an evaluation of materials, construction methods and even access prior to freezing the design to produce final
construction Documents.
Schedule Management

Quality Assurance/Quality Control
Quality control and assurance, including coordination between design disciplines, compliance with program requirements
professional/industry standards, and conformance with all applicable code requirements, including Miami 21, will be guided
by the philosophy that quality is everyone's responsibility. As an integrated design team, all team members will know this
responsibility at the start of the contract, and will hold their fellow team members accountable, and will in turn be held
accountable by them.
Our Organization structure includes a designated individual,lohn Flint, PE, who will be responsible for overseeing and
enforcing adherence to the Quality Program by all disciplines. Mr. Flint is separate from the design team and reports directly
to the Principal in Charge. He will be responsible for ensuring that all team members are aware of the Quality Plan and its
requirements and will ensure that each submission goes through all steps of the Plan.
Design Quality Control: Quality Assurance/Quality Control is an essential and integral part of our management plan for
any project that arises under this contract. Quality control begins with the direct proactive involvement of each discipline
leader and continues with each and every architect and engineer who touches a project. Our team views QA/QC as the
responsibility of every team member.
Recognizing that "fresh eyes" often see things in a new or different way, our Quality Plan includes QA/QC reviews on every
project by architects and engineers who are not directly involved with the project. In this manner we verify that we have
found the best way to do things and maximize our ability to discover ambiguity or inconsistency in our documents. We
will require that all subconsultants engage in a similar review process. Our team members all have portfolios of nationally
recognized award -winning projects that demonstrate their commitment to design excellence and an understanding of what
it takes to realize such projects.
The members of our team achieve a high degree of professionalism in all aspects of our services. We will develop a
Quality Program specifically tailored for this contract based on successful and effective Quality Programs developed and

the quality of what they produce. This includes ensuring that their discipline is developed in harmony with all other disciplines.
Design Schedule Control. Projects are successful through careful and deliberate planning, monitoring, controls, and execution.
At the start of each project, our Project Manager will develop a workplan, in conjunction with the City, that clearly delineates
the project schedule, key milestones and all required deliverables.
Quality Control During Construction: It is important to the total success of a project that a Quality plan be in place
throughout the entire project life cycle, including construction. Our Quality Plan will continue throughout construction, and
will focus on items such as:
• Thorough shop drawings reviews;
• Expeditious and thorough responses to RFI's;
• Periodic review of specifications requirements and contractors' adherence;
• On -site field reviews by all disciplines and documentation with site photos to ensure the construction is proceeding
in accordance with the construction documents;
• Commissioning of systems;
• Thorough punch list and final inspection to ensure compliance with construction documents.
Computer aided design and drafting capabilities
The project will be developed using fully electronic design tools, and 3D modeling techniques applicable to the horizontal
disciplines. We will discuss compatible tools with both the asset management objectives and the GIS capabilities of the City of
Miami. Within the project team, electronic model development and 3D design tools will be managed by EXP as the lead firm,
using CAD/BIM Standards, and following proven procedures, developed over the past 15 years, to assure consistency, accuracy
and the opportunities to leverage the capabilities of these tools to avid conflicts and interferences during construction.

Tools to be used to manage project elements: Our team plans to utilize a variety of collaboration tools to manage project
elements and communicate effectively
• A Sharefile/Sharepoint Team Site to manage project documents within an access hierarchy to all project
documents. Our use of Sharefile will enable us to conduct large file transfers while also providing access to them
wherever you are.
• Microsoft Office Suite software (Word, Excel, OneNote, Access, etc.) for specific document generation,
distribution and filing.
• Bluebeam Revu CAD, a PDF software designed specifically to interface with AutoCAD and Revit. Bluebeam
provides PDF creation, markup, editing and collaboration capabilities that improve communication and
productivity by enabling us to use digital processes from start to finish.
• Bluebeam Studio sessions will be utilized to allow all team members to have real-time access to a current drawing
set, and add comments within the same files. It is a great collaboration tool used to track review comments from
the City. Through our use of Bluebeam, we have enhanced our quality assurance program by verifying that the
comments have been incorporated into the AutoCAD drawings and/or Revit Model.
• Autodesk BIM 360 will be utilized to host current Revit models from each discipline to allow real-time efficient
collaboration in developing the design and the construction documents.
Contractual Scope Control
A scope control program will assure all stakeholders that the project development accomplishes micro- and macro -level
requirements and meets all goals and objectives. With these controls, the EXP Team will be able to manage each design
scope efficiently, cost effectively, and without duplication of effort between overlapping elements and/or packages. We will
utilize scope control tools that include the following:
• Detailed Scope of Work documents for each discipline
• Meeting Agendas (Concise and Detailed)
• Meeting Minutes (Documenting all Decisions)
• Weekly Status Reports
• Monthly Status Reports

• Phasing Plans
• Value Engineering Reviews and Constructability Evaluations
• Risk Management Plan

Project Cost Control
We propose developing an independent parametric cost model at project initiation so that the cost estimates developed as
the designs develop are confirmations that physical scope and budget are in alignment. This approach is vital since it allows for
identifying and understanding cost risk as early as possible. Cost risk reduction will occur as each discipline's design progresses
to completion while incorporating decisions made during the course of design.
Our team will utilize published cost databases within the software as well as our own internal historical construction cost
database to benchmark and confirm current unit costs. With our team's extensive experience on previous pedestrian bridge
projects working closely with contractors, we have developed a capability to integrate functionality and design.
During the design process, the entire team will not only know where we stand in terms of the construction budget, but also
how the costs are distributed among the individual systems. This allows the project team to make conscious decisions of
emphasis, based on the City's priorities. All of these measures will assist in monitoring the progress of the design and will ensure
each project's scope of work is kept within the established time and budget constraints.
Prior experience with governmental agencies.
The EXP Team has routinely split its commissions and project
designations between public and private Clients. In both cases,
while differing agencies and departments, public agencies are
involved. We work to balance public and private contracts, which
allow us to better manage industry cycles. With annual revenue in
excess of $500 Million, roughly half of these revenues come from
governmental agencies.
We also know, from experience, that government agencies
welcome and appreciate being engaged early on, especially at
agencies that have numerous and sometimes overlapping projects
year after year, which all must be considered as a whole to ensure

proper consideration of the three lenses of Economy, Ecology and Equity.
The EXP Team has found it beneficial to meet with permitting authorities at the start of the project to give them
familiarity with the project, and to seek input and concurrence on how we are addressing code compliance and life
safety issues. We will also use this meeting to gather any historical knowledge the authorities may have regarding the
project, anticipated review times, and to gain a thorough understanding of documentation required to enable a proper
and efficient review. We will continue to meet periodically with authorities during design, inasmuch as they are willing.
This will be particularly important if anything changes in the design, or if any of the authorities "hot button" issues are
encountered.
These meetings will exhibit how we are addressing the input received earlier and will be an opportunity to continue
receiving feedback — and getting "buy -in" on our designs - prior to permit submittal. The basic steps to evolving design
in coordination with established budget controls are similar to those of our schedule control process: establish a baseline
cost model with budget requirements for each component, achieve buy -in from all disciplines, and monitor factors
affecting the construction cost on a regular basis.

Agreement. No plea of ignorance of conditions or difficulties that may hereafter exist, or of conditions
or difficulties that may be encountered in the execution of the services pursuant to the Proposal as
a result of failure to make the necessary examinations and investigations, will be accepted as an
excuse for a failure or omission on the part of the Successful Proposer to fulfill, in every detail, all of

SECTION 2
RFQ SCOPE OF SERVICES
2.1 PURPOSE
The City of Miami, through Procurement and under the direction of the DDA and OCI, is issuing
this RFQ to procure a qualified and experienced engineering firm to serve as the design services
professional for the new 1-395 Pedestrian Baywalk and Bikeway Bridge project ("Project").
This serves as an invitation for qualified interdisciplinary teams, which may be composed of
architects, engineers, landscape architects, surveyors, and certain other professionals to submit
Proposals to provide the necessary services as described in this RFQ. The Successful Proposer
and its Team must be able to perform every element of the Scope of Services, as further detailed.
The Successful Proposer's and its Team's expertise shall include, but not be limited to
architecture, engineering, landscape architecture, and cost estimating.
The Successful Proposer will develop drawings and specifications with sufficient information such
that it will allow potential contractors to submit a responsive bid for a future construction contract.
The Successful Proposer will remain the City's post -design services consultant throughout all
construction activities. The Successful Proposer shall be selected in accordance with Florida
Statute Section 287.055, CCNA, as amended.
2.2 PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND
Along Biscayne Bay in Downtown Miami, after forty years of incremental development, the 5-mile
shared use, waterfront path along known as the Baywalk is 88% complete. Currently the largest
publicly owned barrier preventing the Baywalk from being fully complete runs from Maurice A.
Ferre Park in the south, under the MacArthur Causeway Bridge to the former Herald Plaza site in
the north. This 500-foot section forces pedestrians and bicyclists to circumnavigate the site to the
west by passing through the heavily trafficked US-1/1-395 interchange and find their way back to
waterfront near the Venetian Causeway. This effectively closes off the Baywalk.
Until the Baywalk is fully complete, it will not realize its full potential as the spine of Downtown
Miami, the open space amenity that connects three distinct neighborhoods, and the conduit that
allows waterfront access to all residents/visitors, not just those that afford to live on the water.
Further, South Florida is faced with the very real threats of climate change: sea level rise (SLR),
storm surge, sunny -day flooding and displacement. Thus, this project needs to equally address
economy, ecology, and equity.
The site is located underneath the 1-395 MacArthur Causeway, between Maurice A. Ferre Park
(1103 Biscayne Blvd. Miami, FL 33131) in the south, to the property owned by Resorts World
Miami LLC/tenting (1 Herald Plaza, Miami, FL 33131) in the north. The City owns the submerged
lands in Biscayne Bay to the east in front of both properties, and the Florida Department of
Transportation (FDOT) owns the submerged lands underneath the causeway and 100 feet north
and south of it. In May 2019, FDOT granted the city a lease agreement to build and maintain the
pedestrian and bicycle bridge underneath the causeway.
The consultant and/or consultant team will be tasked with designing an approximately 20-foot
wide, over -the -water pedestrian and bicycle (ped/bike) bridge underneath the causeway that will
connect the two sites. The approximate run length is 500 feet. Prior to permitting, the proposed
design will need to be approved by the City of Miami, the Miami DDA and FDOT. During
permitting, approvals will be needed from the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE),
the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), and the Miami -Dade County Division
of Environmental Resources Management (DERM), which is part of Miami-Dade's Department of
Regulatory and Economic Resources (RER). There is a possibility that this project will require a
Professional Engineering Services for RFQ No. 19-20-031
1-395 Pedestrian Baywalk and Bikeway Bridge 9
National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) review, but we believe this project merits a categorical
exclusion (CE).
It will also be required to hold a public engagement regarding the design. The City and the DDA
will assist to ensure that this new public space amenity truly addresses the needs and desires of
the Downtown community.
2.3 SCOPE OF SERVICES
2.3.1 The Challenge
The successful Proposer shall work with the City, Miami DDA, FDOT and community stakeholders
to design a ped/bike bridge, and develop this project from conceptual design, through schematic
and design development, all the way to 100% construction documents and permitting approvals,
with the end goal of a bid document package. A thoughtful and successful design will not only
solve the connection issue via a structurally sound engineered bridge, it will also create an iconic
destination for residents and tourists alike with aspirational design that incorporates lighting,
shade, art, signage, materials, and other amenities.
The proposed ped/bike bridge will be sited over a portion of Biscayne Bay but does not impact
any navigable waterway channels. However, FDOT may need to access (via the water)
underneath the proposed ped/bike bridge for maintenance. There are two critical habitat areas
possibly identified within the project limits: West Indian Manatee and Johnson's Seagrass. The
proposed ped/bike bridge will also have to take into account saltwater intrusion, UV light
degradation, and possible coastal flooding, as well as be able to meet Florida Building Code
Miami -Dade County "High Velocity Hurricane Zone" provisions requiring structures to withstand
wind forces resulting from design wind speeds (146 Mph) and storm wave energy.
2.3.2 Background on the Three Sites
Maurice A. Ferre Park is a 30-acre public, urban park in downtown Miami. It currently houses both
the Perez Art Museum Miami (PAMM), a $220 million contemporary art museum, and the $275
million Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science, which includes a planetarium and aquarium.
In early 2019, the park was officially named Maurice A. Ferre Park in dedication to former Miami
Mayor Maurice Ferre to pay tribute to him and his legacy. The park is currently maintained and
operated by the Bayfront Park Management Trust. The southern end of the proposed bridge will
connect directly to the northern part of Maurice A. Ferre Park along the existing seawall.
Herald Plaza is the former site of the Miami Herald daily newspaper. It is currently owned by
Resorts World Miami LLC/tenting. The City owns upland sections 20 feet north of the causeway,
and if the proposed bridge needs to connect there, it can. It is however the intent of the City and
the DDA to connect the bridge further north, providing a seamless connection and transition from
Maurice A. Ferre Park to whatever is eventually developed at Herald Plaza.
The General Douglas MacArthur Causeway is a six -lane causeway which connects Downtown,
Miami, Florida and South Miami Beach via Biscayne Bay. In 2014, FDOT began the design
process for an $800 million undertaking called the Signature Bridge Project. This highway and
bridge reconstruction project include a 33-acre open space area tentatively called "The
Underdeck". Construction for all components began in fall 2018, and the project is scheduled to
be completed in five years. While the Signature Bridge project will not impact the area of this
project, it will be critical for the consultants to consider the long-term connections of the pedestrian
bridge to the open space area of the Signature Bridge.
2.3.3 Goals
The proposed ped/bike bridge design should create a critical connection AND Downtown
destination. The design should ultimately address the following:
Professional Engineering Services for RFQ No. 19-20-031
1-395 Pedestrian Baywalk and Bikeway Bridge 10
■ Multi -Modal
How will the proposed ped/bike bridge design ensure multi -modal connectivity?
Miami -Dade County is one of the most dangerous places to walk and bike. How will your
design not only comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, but how will it
promote the safe behavior amongst pedestrians, bicycles, scooters, and families with
strollers? How will it attract users from both the southern park and the northern private
property? Will it be designed in such a way to allow access from a possible water -taxi
service, transient dockage from private watercraft, or access to kayaks, paddleboards and
other non -motorized watercraft? Finally, will the proposed design include signage
elements to aid in orientation and wayfinding?
■ Economic Development
How will the proposed ped/bike bridge design spur economic development and
increase surrounding property values? How can the proposed ped/bike bridge
design create both a resident amenity and an iconic tourist destination?
Both here in the U.S. and abroad, numerous other major cities have realized the
importance and value of their waterfronts as well as connected pedestrian and bicycle
networks and have invested large sums of money in transforming them into valuable public
spaces. Examples like the High Line in New York City, the 606 in Chicago, the Beltline in
Atlanta, and the Riverwalk in Tampa have continuously demonstrated the economic
impact and benefits of publicly funded ped/bike infrastructure.
■ Art / Sculpture
How will the proposed ped/bike bridge design activate our waterfront with art,
sculpture, lighting and other aesthetic features?
Our goal is to connect the most difficult barrier on the Baywalk. But beyond just that
utilitarian function, another main goal of this project is to truly activate the Baywalk and its
surrounding amenities/parks/civic institutions. We want to create a ped/bike bridge that
not only functions, but also will become iconic destination that encompasses artistic
elements.
■ Health & Wellness
How will the proposed ped/bike bridge design create places that support well-being,
and encourage active and healthy lifestyles?
Design proposals should consider passive recreation, family and public gatherings, and
green and introspective space for emotional and physical well-being, as well as providing
full access to Miami's pristine waterfront and supporting opportunities for special event
use. A successful design submission must demonstrate an understanding of the
interconnectedness of natural resources, green infrastructure, recreational parks, and
open spaces, and focus on sustainable features.
■ Resilience
How will the proposed ped/bike bridge design bolster our frontline of defense
against sea level rise and storm surge mitigation?
The design process should use emerging best practices in various design and engineering
disciplines to advance not only the resilience of the project in relation to known climactic
and environmental conditions but also the adaptive capacity of the project in relation to
increasing climate change impacts in the future, particularly sea level rise. In this regard,
Professional Engineering Services for RFQ No. 19-20-031
1-395 Pedestrian Baywalk and Bikeway Bridge 11
designs must include a full-lifecycle accounting of the project using the best available
scientific knowledge, including a probabilistic analysis of the performance of the project
given a variety of different climate futures. This includes an analysis of materials,
performance, and operations associated with any given design iteration.
■ Community Engagement
How will the proposed ped/bike bridge design process represent community
engagement, input and stewardship?
The Selected Proposer will work with the City and the DDA, as well as coordinate with
FDOT, Perez Art Museum Miami, Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science, Resorts
World Miami LLC/tenting, and other local stakeholders to ensure that the design of this
ped/bike bridge truly serves the needs and desires of the Downtown Miami community.
The Proposer/consultant team will also be required to hold limited public engagement, so
that all stakeholders and community members are able to give iterative feedback and take
ownership of this transformative project.
2.3.4 Themes
We seek to identify a team of consultants who will engage the above goals through the lenses of
economy, ecology, and equity. Proposer can provide project examples of this.

REQUESTS FOR INFORMATION - SINCE ISSUANCE OF RFQ
Q1. The RFQ requires to have an Architect to be a Project Manager. Since this is a Bridge Project
and will require intensive coordination with FDOT and Engineering Consultants, we suggest to
have the option of Bridge Engineer for the project manager position. Are you planning to revise
the RFQ accordingly?
Al. Please refer to Modification No. 6, above. The Project Manager shall be an Architect or
Engineer (employed by the Prime Consultant). It is expected that the Project will also
require extensive coordination with the City, Downtown Miami Development Authority,
Perez Art Museum Miami and The Genting Group's stakeholders to develop a state-of-
the-art bridge structure that will complement the architectural themes of the surrounding
properties.
Q2. The RFQ says the City seeks to procure a "qualified and experienced engineering firm to serve
as the design services professional for the new 1-395 Pedestrian Baywalk and Bikeway Bridge
project," but then under item 2.4 Proposed Key Personnel/Team Members, it calls for the
Project Manager to be an Architect and the Lead Architect/Designer to be an Architect.
Can you clarify what discipline the Prime Proposer should be: Bridge Engineer, Structural
Engineer, Architect, or other?
A2. Please refer to Modification No. 2, above.
Q3. Are the design firms working on the on -going FDOT 1-395/1-95/SR 836 Design Build project
precluded from participating on this project? It appears that there is a conflict of interest if these
firms are allowed not to mention unfair advantage. Please clarify.
Professional Engineering Services for 1-395 Pedestrian RFQ No. 19-20-031
Baywalk and Bikeway Bridge Project, D2 9
Project No. B- 193623
A3. There are no preclusions contemplated regarding this stand-alone project.
Q4. For the staff shown as "additional key personnel" and any other staff that the prime will include,
do we only need to show references for three (3) of the projects shown on the resumes?
A4. There is no "additional Key Personnel." The RFQ clearly differentiates between "Key
Personnel' and "Required Personnel." Each of the two groups are required to
demonstrate their qualifications and experience in very specific, distinct ways.
Reference Forms have been developed for the Key Personnel, while Required Personnel
must present all pertinent qualifications and experience within each of the required
resumes, including full contact information for the individuals attesting to the services
rendered.
Q5. RFQ clause 3.5 Minimum Qualification and Experience Requirements states, "the Proposer
shall be a licensed, registered, and practicing architectural firm (Chapter 471, Florida Statutes)
in the State of Florida for the last five (5) years under its current business name." This will
preclude experienced multidisciplinary engineering firms that are not registered architectural
firms from leading the project. Would the City allow an engineering firm to be the Proposer
(Prime), who can employ a licensed Architect as a Sub -Consultant?
A5. No.
Q6. It was noted in the Pre -Proposal Conference that out-of-state firms will be allowed to fill the
designer role, if retained as a Sub -Consultant to a Prime Architect, who leads the project.
Please confirm whether the lead marine structural role can be filled by a Sub -Consultant
working for the Proposer (Prime Architect).
A6. There is no "lead marine structural role." The qualifications and experience required of
the Marine Structural Engineer (MSE) are clearly stipulated in Articles 4(A)(10) and
4(A)(11), respectively. The role of MSE shall be met by a professional engineer registered
in Florida.
Q7. Would like to know: a) budget for the C.E.I.; b) the duration of the contract; and C) the planned
starting date.
A7. There are no Construction Engineering and Inspection (CEI) services included in the
scope of this RFQ. The duration of the contract and the starting date shall be negotiated
with the Successful Proposer.
Q8. Is there an Attendees List and recording of the Pre -Proposal Conference?
A8. Yes, the Attendees List is attached to this addendum as Attachment C - Pre -Proposal
Conference Attendees List. The recording is attached to this addendum as Attachment
D - Pre -Proposal Conference Video Recording.
Q9. What is anticipated to be the scope for the construction engineering and inspection position?
A9. The intent is to provide construction administration services for the Project to
supplement full time construction management by the City, along with special
inspection services provided by an independent engineer retained by the contractor.
Service will include as applicable:
■ Attend kick off meeting following the Contractor's Notice to Proceed
■ Attend progress meetings, estimated to be 12 meetings
Professional Engineering Services for 1-395 Pedestrian RFQ No. 19-20-031
Baywalk and Bikeway Bridge Project, D2 10
Project No. B- 193623
■ Shop drawing and construction submittal review
■ Respond to RFI's
■ Site visits — may attend up to 10 periodic site visits to observe construction
progress and ensure construction is in accordance with approved permit plans.
Site observation reports shall include photos and distributed to the City and
contractor
■ Review special inspection reports and material testing reports for pile driving,
reinforced concrete cap construction etc.
■ Review Payment Applications
■ Conduct Final Walkthrough with City and prepare punch list.
■ Certify the completion of the Project.
Q10. Please confirm that the "Required Personnel e.g. civil engineer, landscape architect,
environmental, cost estimator, geotechnical engineer, resilience/climate change specialist and
construction engineering and inspection specialist" do not have to submit the 3 written
references from clients.
A10. Please refer to Article 4.1(A)(12), "Qualifications and Experience of other Required
Personnel by Sub -Consultants," for details as to the specific requirements for the
Required Personnel.
Q11. Will the City consider firms practicing architecture, with staff registered in the State of Florida,
but not presently (or within the past five years) providing architectural services in the state?
A11. Please refer to Article 3.5, "Minimum Qualifications and Experience Requirements" for
details as to the specific requirements regarding length or registration and practice in
the State of Florida. Proposers must have been, as of the proposal submission due date,
a licensed, registered, and practicing architectural firm (Chapter 471, Florida Statutes)
in the State of Florida for the last five (5) years under its current business name.
Q12. Paragraph 2.4 (Page 12) —Are we allowed to provide resumes for roles on our team in addition
to the required personnel listed on page 12?
Al2. Yes.
Q13. 4.1. A. 4. (Page 20) — This paragraph states that Form RFQ-QPC is three pages maximum.
The form itself says additional pages can be added as necessary to address the question
regarding claims, lawsuits, etc. Because the form is three pages, any additional pages would
exceed the three -page limit. Are we allowed additional page(s) as necessary to provide a full
response to the questions?
A13. Yes.
Q14. 4.1. A.5 (Page 20) - The RFQ asks for project experience within the last 10 years. Form RFQ-
EPC limits the projects to being within the past 5 years. Please confirm that 10-year stipulation
is correct.
A14. Revised forms have been uploaded to the BidSync platform. Forms issued upon the
original RFQ launch will also be accepted.
