PROJECT NO. 3
DINNER KEY MARINA — REPAIRS AND IMPROVEMENTS
TYPE OF TEAM DESIRED:
The design team should be headed by a professional civil engineer with considerable
marina and environmental permitting experience. The team shall include an expert
consultant in the operation and economics of marina facilities. The civil engineer shall
join with architects, mechanical and electrical engineers to provide improvements to the
marina facilities as the City's program requires.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
In 1988, the original Dinner Key Marina (3400 Pan American Drive) was re -opened after
being totally reconstructed and the number of boat slips had been increased to 580. The
Marina had to be repaired after Hurricane Andrew and this work was completed in 1993.
The main piers are of a pre -stressed concrete construction. The finger piers and piles
(mooring, fender and fingers) are of a wood construction 10 to 15 years old.
The work to be performed under a contract with the City consists of a complete inspection
of the Marina and replacement of deteriorated existing wood piles and repairs of concrete
piers and finger piers where necessary. The inspection shall include bathymetric
investigating of the Marina bay bottom and where the bay bottom is silted upward, the
Marina shall be dredged to proper water depths for the boats.
A report of the Marina condition shall be prepared with a program for repairs and remedial
work. The scope of work for this project includes construction documents (drawings and
specifications), required environmental permits, bidding the project and field inspections
and administration of the contractors' work.
The inspection and report on the existing Marina shall include recommendations for
upgrading the facility. Some of the desired improvements are new pier gates with
electronic key locks, security camera system, improved and expanded restrooms,
showers and laundry facilities. Other improvements include a second floor for the dock
master's office and a marina clubhouse including restrooms, showers, lockers, exercise
room and lounge, possibly in the City Hall basement area. There is a marina fueling
facility under design and the new work and improvements shall be coordinated with this
fueling facility.
