Brown,Jr., Community Development Direct r Gerald Lee, City Planner THE CORRADINO GROUP Project Proposal Prepared for: Howard W. Brown, Jr., MPA Planning and Community Development Director City of Opa Locka Prepared by: Joseph M Corradino, AICP THE CORRADINO GROUP Mr. Brown, this is The Corradino Groups proposal to provide planning services to the City of Opa Locka, related to the administration of the 2011 Community Challenge Grant. It is understood that the City Desires Corradino to serve as adjunct staff to the City of Opa Lock, administering to this grant and reporting directly to the Community Development Director. In doing so Corradino will work with and instruct the Community Development Corporation as its produces the deliverables required by the grant. Corradino will be responsible for assuring those deliverables meet the needs of the City and the requirements of the grant, and are completed in a timely manner. This will include working with the CDC and its consultants to review the drafts of the Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Regulations, providing overall direction and specific edits to those documents, development and implementation of a public engagement plan, as well as reviewing consultant invoices. Corradino will be responsible for keeping the Community Development Director, City Manager, and City Council informed of the process. Corradino is approaching this effort with a focus on assuring the Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Regulations meet the needs of the City. The overriding goal is to assure that the City receives a product that is practical, easily understood, and appropriate to the size, scale and character of Opa Locka. It is anticipated that this will include an evaluation of form based codes versus traditional zoning codes, a review of appropriate land use percentage, an assurance that projected land use intensities and infrastructure capacities are sufficient and accurate to meet concurrency projections, and final deliverables are workable and available in paper and electronic formats. Additional services may include assistance with engineering review and cost estimation of various projects, assistance with special efforts such as annexations, master planning, GIS mapping or other miscellaneous planning or engineering services. Because the tasks involved with administering to such an effort are somewhat flexible, this proposal is structured to provide services on an cost plus expenses basis, billed hourly, with a not to exceed limit, at the provided rates. This means that the City is billed for the only the services provided. The proposal provides two phases, the first for administrative services, and the second for additional miscellaneous services. The term of this proposal is for 9 months after the notice to proceed. Corradino understands the importance and significance of this effort. This is one of only two Community Challenge Grants issued in the State of Florida, and one of the few issued in the entire nation. Successfully producing a set of documents that fulfill the needs of the City is imperative. This is an opportunity to provide the highest level of attention and professional expertise to the City's main policy and legislative documents. A well thought out Comprehensive Plan can guide policy makers today and in the future adding security and assurances to decision making. A straight forward Land Development Code will increase certainty to the appropriate location, size and scale of development well. Opa Locka can become a national example of quality urban planning. SCOPE OF SERVICES PHASE I Grant Review ($60,000, billed hourly, not to exceed) It is anticipated that Corradino will dedicate on average one week per month on behalf of the City in the production of this effort. Corradino will be available at any time to meet with staff, constituents, or elected officials, and attend presentations. Anticipated tasks and estimated fees include the following Task 1 Monitor and supervise consultant deliverables; Make changes to HUD Work plan where necessary; Review invoices; Consult and meet with City staff; Constant on call availability. • average of 16 hours a month ($24,000 total) Task 2 Monitor/guide public involvement process. • average of 8 hours a month ($14,000 total). Task 3 Support Attorney's Office; Coordinate with Clerks office • average of 3 hours a month ($3,000 total). Task 4 Develop Business process recommendations to meet intent of Grant. • average of 4 hours a month ($6,000 total). Task 5 Assist in prep of agenda items. • average of 3 hours a month ($3,000 total). Task 6 Attend and participate in meetings w staff/officials. • average 6 hours a month ($10,000 total). PHASE II Miscellaneous, Additional Services ($20,000, billed hourly, upon written director approval, not to exceed) It is anticipated that there may be a need for specialized services related to this effort, but requiring special or dedicated efforts. If such cases were to arise, Corradino would provide a detailed cost proposal to the Community Services Director. Upon written approval the services would be undertaken. Such items may include Annexations or other larger scale project, like specific engineering services related cost estimating, design, master planning, geographic information systems, etc. Sponsored by: Vice Mayor Kelley Resolution No 13-8521 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF OPA-LOCKA, FLORIDA,TO AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO NEGOTIATE WITH CORRADINO GROUP, INC., FOR PROFESSIONAL PLANNING SERVICES; PROVIDING FOR INCORPORATION OF RECITALS; PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE WHEREAS,the City of Opa-locka was awarded the 2011 Community Challenge grant from the U.S, Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD); and WHEREAS,the City Commission of the City of Opa-locka issued RFQ12-1311100,seeking qualified planning consultants to assist in properly administering the grant; and WHEREAS, after reviewing all proposals, the evaluation committee determined the Corradino Group, Inc., to be the most responsible and responsive firm; and WHEREAS,The City Commission of the City of Opa-locka desires that the City Manager negotiate with the Corradino Group,Inc., for professional planning services,to be paid from account number 37-515531, once contract negotiations are completed.
