Capital Program Status Report – Q3 Page 1 of 8
CAPITAL PROGRAM STATUS REPORT
April – June 2020
I. Public Spaces Operations Facility Remodeling 1840 NE 144 Street, North Miami
Status:
ARM Architects submitted the final Construction Documents for the New
Operations Facility in February and the Demolition plans for the existing
Recreation Center and existing Operations Facility located at 18 Bal Bay
Drive. Permit documents were submitted to the City of North Miami and
Miami-Dade County Department of Environmental Resource Management
and Fire simultaneously in January 2020. Notwithstanding the delay due to
County Building Department COVID 19 protocol, the permits for the
building were approved on May 23rd, 2020. The site review is pending an
administrative approval by the City of North Miami.
Bids were received on March 25th. John Bell Construction Inc. was selected
as the responsive bidder and approved by Council on April 21, 2020. Notice
to Proceed (NTP) no. 1 was issued on April 22 for procurement of long lead
materials and NTP no. 2 for the commencement of construction was issued
on May 26th. Construction has commenced with the demolition phase which
is 100% complete. The contractor has proceeded with the structural scope
of work and currently has completed 30% of the work. We anticipate the
substantial completion for December 2020.
Grants applications will also be submitted to Florida Division of Emergency
Management (UASI) for assistance with EOC components, Hazard Mitigation
Grant Program (HMGP) and Flood Mitigation Assistance Program grant as
soon as the grant cycles open.
II. Waterfront Park Development:
Status:
On January 03, 2020, the Village attended a meeting for the review of a
progress set where the comments on the Schematic Design submittal were
addressed and possible solutions were discussed. The Architect
Zyscovich Architects and their sub-consultants coordinated the
development phase in alignment with the approved Schematic Design
submitted in December 2019 and we received the Design Development
deliverables on April 22, 2020. They are currently working on the 100%
Construction Documents.
In addition, the Seawall Replacement was added as a separate project
pursuant to an inspection and coastal engineer’s recommendation for
Capital Program Status Report – Q3 Page 2 of 8
replacement. This will allow the Village to permit and bid separately,
thereby, expediting its construction phase. This project has been design to
a 30% completion and the plans have been submitted to DERM for a Class I
permit, to the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP), and
to US Army Corp of Engineers (USACOE).
In March we submitted a Florida Inland Navigational District (FIND)
Waterway Assistance Program grant application requesting funding for the
Seawall & Dock Replacement including the proposed Boardwalk and Kayak
Launch. The FIND Commission has reviewed the application for compliance
with the grant requirements and the Village is scheduled for a presentation
on July 17th.
If awarded, funding will be available for October 2020. We have also
submitted a federal appropriation request via Representative Wasserman
Shultz and explored a submittal for a DEO request under the Rebuild Florida
Infrastructure Program but the project did not qualify. Grants applications
will also be submitted to Florida Division of Emergency Management Hazard
Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) and Flood Mitigation Assistance Program
grant as soon as the grant cycles open.
As per our updated project schedule, we expect the Village Park design
completion for October 2020 and the Construction Completion is projected
for June 2022 (this date will vary in response to the permit review period
since this facility has components on the waterway and will require an
environmental permit approval).
III. Jetty/Cutwalk/96th Street-End Design Development:
Status:
Currently, the project is in the Design Development Phase and the plans are
50% complete. Upon submission and review of the progress set, the project
has commenced the constructability review to determine the best and most
cost effective structural design. We are in the process of developing a cost
estimate, constructability and value engineering report on the structural
waterside components. Pursuant to the recommendation, the design
development phase will be finalized. Jurisdictional and environmental
agencies permit submittals will be scheduled with DERM, ACOE & FDEP as
soon as we have a direction as to the structural design.
In March we submitted a Florida Inland Navigational District (FIND)
Waterway Assistance Program grant application requesting funding for the
Jetty project. If awarded Phase I (design services) funding will be available
for October 2020. The FIND Commission has reviewed the application for
compliance with the grant requirements and the Village is scheduled for a
presentation on July 17th.
Capital Program Status Report – Q3 Page 3 of 8
We have also submitted a federal appropriation request via Representative
Wasserman Shultz office. We explored a submittal for a DEO request under
the Rebuild Florida Infrastructure Program but the project did not qualify.
Grants applications will also be submitted to Florida Division of Emergency
Management Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) and Flood
Mitigation Assistance Program grant as soon as the grants cycle.
In December 2019, Council approved Mikyoung’s additional service
proposal for a design concept for the 96th Street End project to align the
proposed design with the Jetty’s vision. We received a concept visioning at
the end of April 2020. At that time we will bring concepts to the Council
while simultaneously coordinating with the City of Surfside.
IV. Beach Re-nourishment/Sand By-Pass Project:
IV-A. Beach Re-nourishment
Status:
On March 20, 2020, The Florida Department of Environmental Protection
(FDEP) issued a Request for Additional Information (RAI), to the U. S. Army
Corps of Engineers (USACE). The RAI largely focuses on questions related to
the flood shoal borrow area – dredging details, geotechnical data, and
resources in close proximity to borrow area. There are also questions related
to the sand compatibility of the proposed upland sand sources in the RAI.
The Village in collaboration with our retained Coastal Engineer, Cummins
Cederberg, Inc. continue to monitor the progress of this project during the
permitting phase.
On April 3, 2020, The Villager received the Notice of Availability (NOA) of
the draft Environmental Assessment (EA) and proposed Finding of No
Significant Impact (FONSI) for the beach re-nourishment of Bal Harbour
Beach, Miami-Dade County, Florida, under the Dade County Beach Erosion
Control and Hurricane Protection Project (BEC&HPP).
The draft EA evaluates the use of four additional sand sources for re-
nourishment of Bal Harbour Beach: dredged material from the Bakers
Haulover Inlet (BHI) Channel and the BHI Flood Shoal, upland sand mine
Garcia Family Farm, LLC in Henry County (Garcia), and upland sand mine
Cemex Construction Material Florida, LLC in Polk County (Cemex). Potential
borrow area alternatives for the Bal Harbour Beach re-nourishment
evaluated in other EAs/FONSIs, were also discussed within the evaluation.
The draft EA and proposed FONSI for the evaluation of additional sand
sources for the Bal Harbour Beach segment of the Dade County BEC&HPP
are available for your review on the Corps Environmental planning website
under Dade County at the following link:

The following information provides further details and schedule for the
upcoming sand re-nourishment along Bal Harbour Beach this Fall:
Sand placement - Village of Bal Harbour limits (R-27 to R-32)
• Sand amount - 210,000 Cubic Yards (CY)
• 50% of the volumes are anticipated to be dredged from the Flood Shoal
inside Haulover Inlet
• 50% of the volumes are anticipated to be truck hauled from approved
mines.
Work Schedule:
• FDEP Permit application (new or modification) 12/30/19
• FDEP Permit issuance (water quality certification) June 3, 2020
• Advertise June 11, 2020
• Bid Opening July 15, 2020
• Award August 14, 2020
• Construction begin Nov-Dec 2020
• Construction period is estimated to be four (4) to six (6) months from
date of the start of construction.
IV-B. Sand By-Pass Project:
Status:
Miami-Dade County (MDC), in partnership with the Florida Department of
Environmental Protection (FDEP), is in final stages of the process to plan a
permanent sand bypassing system which would move sand from Haulover
Beach Park to the Bal Harbour Village. This process has involved modeling
sand transport and discussing the sediment budget across the inlet, as well
as exploring bypass alternatives, with a Technical Advisory Committee (TAC),
of which the Village is a member. The current recommendation is to
construct a 164-foot extension to the north jetty at Haulover Inlet to capture
more sand flowing from north to south, and mechanically bypass that sand
via dredging along the shoreline every 4-6 years. Comments have been
issued to MDC/FDEP after every TAC meeting and review of Feasibility Study
drafts. Currently, we are awaiting the final Feasibility Study for review and
comment. This report is a necessary step in the process of updating the
Bakers Haulover Inlet Management Plan which will designate permit
attainable project concepts. Separately, The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
(USACE) is planning a beach re-nourishment project for the summer of 2020,
which is estimated to place 240,000 cubic yards of sand on the Village’s
beaches using a combination of sand sources, including the flood (inshore)
shoal, the bypassing project (if constructed by then), or truck haul of mined
sand.
