BACKGROUND The Miami Riverside Center Parking Garage and surface Parking Lots No. 16 and 17 will provide the necessary parking stalls for employees, Fire Department vehicles, City Commission and staff and City Manager and staff. All of this parking is necessary once the Administration Building is fully occupied. The Public Works Department has identified several security problems with the existing parking garage and surface parking lots No., 16 and 17 that require attention prior to the full occupancy of the building. Electronically controlled security gates must be installed at the entrances and exits to these facilities to control access and improve security. Since time is of the essence, the lengthy bidding process to secure a contractor is not practical. DOSP currently retains qualified, pre -approved firms that are prepared to immediately provide and install the security gates and it is in the City's best interest, both in terms of cost and time savings, to utilize DOSP expertise for the installation of the security gates. In order to supply electrical power to operate the new security gates, it is also in the City's bE:st interest both in terms of cost and time savings to increase the amount of the existing agreement authorized by Resolution No. 96-122 between the City of Miami and Prime Electrical Contractors, Inc., to provide the necessary electric connections, conduit and cables. 323.1'
