ENCLOSURES:
RECOMMENDATION:
It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached Resolution
authorizing an increase in the construction contract between the City of Miami and
Master Excavators, Inc., in the amount of $350,000 for stormwater drainage facilities in
the Citywide Local Drainage Project E-75, B-5638. The contract sum will increase from

BACKGROUND
Many City residents suffered stormwater flooding losses during the October 3, 2000,
tropical storm that moved across the City. The Flagami neighborhood, as well as
several other locations, was the most impacted where 17 inches of rainfall caused
extensive flooding and property damage. Emergency pumping by the City's Fire -Rescue
Department and Public Works Department was required to eventually remove
accumulated stormwater at several locations.
An assessment by the Public Works Department during and after the storm revealed that
storm drainage improvements are most urgently needed at the following locations to
avoid future flooding:
• SW 48 Avenue between SW 5 Terrace and SW 8 Street
• SW 16 Street between SW 34 Avenue and SW 37 Avenue
• SW 64 Court outfall pipe between SW 8 Street and Tamiami Canal
• SW 60 Court, SW 61 Avenue and SW 62 Avenue south of West Flagler Street
• SW 16 Terrace at Coral Gate Drive (SW 34 Avenue)
• NW Miami Court between NW 18 Street and NW 19 Street
• NW 40 Court between West Flagler Street and NW 2 Street
• SW 9 Street at SW 6 Avenue
• SW 13 Street at SW 23 Avenue
• NW 15 Street between NW 29 Court and NW 30 Avenue
• NW 1 Street at NW 18 Avenue
• NW 2 Terrace between NW 36 Avenue and NW 36 Court

The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission
Resolution To Increase Construction Contract With Master Excavators, Inc.
Page No. 2
The design of the improvements at many of these locations is nearly complete. Due to
the urgency to complete these locations, the most expeditious method to accomplish the
construction of the improvements is to increase the existing construction contract with
Master Excavators, Inc.' and include these locations in the Citywide Local Drainage
Project E-75 currently under construction.
Another critically flooded neighborhood, in the area of SW 33 Avenue and SW 27 Street,
will be addressed separately under the Coconut Grove Storm Sewer/Impact Fee Project
scheduled for this fiscal year.
