RECITALS WHEREAS, the Department has jurisdiction over and maintains 1-395 from 1-95 to McArthur Causeway; and WHEREAS, the Department will undertake to complete community enhancements located underneath 1-395 Bridge, Locally Funded Project number FM# 251688-1-52-06 (the "Project"), of which the individual elements are outlined in the attached Exhibit "A", "Scope of Services", which is herein incorporated by reference; and WHEREAS, the Department will enter into a grant execution agreement ("Federal Grant Agreement") with US Department of Transportation ("USDOT") through its delegated division, the Federal Highway Administration ("FHWA"), which the terms and conditions of said Federal Grant Agreement may affect the terms and conditions of this LFA; and WHEREAS, the Participant shall deposit funds in escrow with the State of Florida, Department of Financial Services, Division of Treasury, in the amount set forth in the attached Exhibit "B", "Financial Summary", incorporated herein by reference, in accordance with the terms and conditions of this LFA and the Three Party Escrow Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit "D"; and WHEREAS, the Department will utilize said Participant funds to complete the Project; and WHEREAS, the parties hereto mutually recognize the need for entering into an LFA designating and setting forth the responsibilities of each party; and WHEREAS, the parties are authorized to enter into this LFA pursuant to Section 334.044(7) and 339.12, Florida Statutes. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, the mutual covenants and other valuable considerations contained herein, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows: Page 1 of 11 LOCALLY FUNDED AGREEMENT BETWEEN STATE OF FLORIDA, DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION AND CITY OF MIAMI 1. The foregoing recitals are true and correct and are incorporated into the body of this LFA, as if fully set forth herein. 2. A true and correct copy of the Resolution of the Participant's Commission approving this LFA is attached hereto as Exhibit "C", "Participant's Resolution" and is incorporated herein by reference. 3. The Department will administer the Project in accordance with the attached Exhibit "A", "Scope of Services." The Department will complete the Project utilizing the funds provided by the Participant and the Department, and funds from the awarded Federal grant, as outlined in Exhibit "B", "Financial Summary", in accordance with the provisions of this LFA and the Federal Grant Agreement. 4. The Department will not be obligated to commence construction of the Project until the total amount of Participant's funding for the Project is on deposit with the Department. 5. The Participant shall, before June 30, 2026, provide funding to the Department in the amount of Ten Million Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars ($10,800,000.00), inclusive of contingencies (hereinafter, the "Participant Contribution"), to partially fund the Project in accordance with Exhibit "B", "Financial Summary", which such Project estimate is subject to change. 6. If at any time it becomes apparent that the Participant's total share of the Project cost (including contingencies) will exceed the available Participant Contribution paid set forth in Exhibit "B", "Financial Summary", the Department will notify the Participant and, in accordance with the Department's negotiation procedures and in coordination with the Participant, scope may be eliminated from the Project and/or materials may be substituted in an effort to reduce the construction cost estimate of the Project ("Revised Construction Estimate"). 7. If it becomes apparent that the Participant's share of the Revised Construction Estimate (including contingencies) will still exceed the available Participant Contribution paid towards the construction phase of the Project set forth in Exhibit "B", "Financial Summary", the Department will notify the Participant and the Participant will provide an additional deposit within fourteen (14) calendar days of notification from the Department or before beginning construction of the Project, whichever is earlier, so that the total Participant Contribution for the construction phase of the Project is equal to the Participant's share of the Revised Construction Estimate. However, failure of the Department to so notify the Participant shall not relieve the Participant from its obligation to pay its total actual share of the Project construction cost amount on final accounting as provided herein below. If the Participant cannot provide the additional deposit within fourteen (14) days, a letter must be submitted to and approved by the Department's Project Manager indicating when the additional deposit will be made. The Participant understands the request and approval of the additional time could delay the Project, and additional costs may be incurred due to Project delays. Page 2 of 11 LOCALLY FUNDED AGREEMENT BETWEEN STATE OF FLORIDA, DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION AND CITY OF MIAMI 8. If the Participant's share of the Revised Construction Estimate (including contingencies) is less than the available Participant Contribution paid towards the construction phase of the Project set forth in Exhibit "B", "Financial Summary", the Department will refund the Participant the difference between the Participant Contribution paid towards construction phase and the amount of the Participant's share of the Revised Construction Estimate, if such refund is requested by the Participant in writing. 9. If at any time during the Project construction phase, should Project scope or cost modifications occur that cause the actual construction cost to exceed the Revised Construction Estimate, the Participant will be notified by the Department accordingly. The Participant agrees to provide, without delay, in advance of the additional services or work being performed, adequate funds to ensure that cash on deposit with the Department is sufficient to fully fund the remainder of the Project construction cost. The Department shall notify the Participant as soon as it becomes apparent the actual construction cost will overrun the Revised Construction Estimate. However, failure of the Department to so notify the Participant shall not relieve the Participant from its obligation to pay the remainder of the Project construction cost on final accounting as provided herein below. Funds due from the Participant during the Project not paid within forty (40) calendar days from the date of the invoice are subject to an interest charge at a rate established pursuant to Section 55.03, Florida Statutes. 10. The Department intends to have its final and complete accounting of all costs incurred in connection with the work performed hereunder within three hundred and sixty days (360) of final payment to the Department's contractor. The Department considers the Project complete when the final payment has been made to the Department's contractor, not when the work under this LFA is complete. All Project cost records and accounts shall be subject to audit by a representative of the Participant for a period of three (3) years after final close out of the Project. The Participant will be notified of the total actual Project cost. Both parties agree that in the event the final accounting of the total actual Project cost is less than the remaining Participant Contribution to date, a refund of the excess will be made by the Department to the Participant, if such refund is requested by the Participant in writing. If the final accounting is not performed within three hundred and sixty (360) days, the Participant is not relieved from its obligation to pay. 11. In the event the final accounting of total actual Project cost is greater than the remaining Participant Contribution to date, the Participant will pay the additional amount within forty (40) calendar days from the date of the invoice from the Department. The Participant agrees to pay interest at a rate as established pursuant to Section 55.03, Florida Statutes, on any invoice not paid within forty (40) calendar days until the invoice is paid. Page 3 of 11 LOCALLY FUNDED AGREEMENT BETWEEN STATE OF FLORIDA, DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION AND CITY OF MIAMI 12. The payment of funds under this LFA will be made directly to the Department for deposit and as provided in the attached Three Party Escrow Agreement between Participant, Department, and the State of Florida, Department of Financial Services, Division of Treasury. 13. The terms and conditions of this LFA are subject to and subordinate to requirements of the Federal Grant Agreement which may affect the financial provisions of this LFA. 14.
