Page 434.2. Qualification of Key Personnel Assigned to Engagement Request for Qualifications # 22-06-01 Continuing Services for Landscape Architectural Services CCNA preparation services were provided as part of this project. As part of a miscellaneous services contract with the City, Miller Legg prepared the Florida Highway Beautification Council Grant Application and developed Landscape Improvement Design Documents for Sample Road. This approximately three- mile roadway serves as the major east- west corridor through the City of Coconut Creek. The grant application was successful in acquiring $225,000 in matching funds for the project. Award: Broward Beautiful Third Place for Roadway/Swale Beautification, Broward County, 2004 City of Lauderhill Sports Park - Miller Legg was retained by the City of Lauderhill to provide civil engineering design, stormwater permitting, landscape architecture, irrigation design, construction specifications and bidding assistance services for proposed amenities improvements at the 12-acre Lauderhill Sports Park. Replacement of the baseball field and cricket pitch natural grass with synthetic turf and the football scoreboard replacement tasks have been finalized. Miller Legg has also completed design of the playground area wood chip surface conversion to synthetic turf, playground shade, modifications to portions of the fitness trail and the addition of new fitness stations trail and exercise equipment. City of Lauderdale Lakes C-13 Western Greenway LAP - This project is generally described as the design of an FDOT LAP-funded one-mile greenway along the southern C-13 canal bank from SR 7 to the Florida Turnpike. The Project is part of the overall Greenway Trail System for Broward County including two municipalities; the larger portion of which is in the City of Lauderdale Lakes, the remaining portion of which, is in the City of Oakland Park. The Greenway connects to a pedestrian bridge linking the proposed Greenway to an existing City Park, City Hall and the Park Lakes Elementary School. Services provided include landscape architecture, surveying, environmental permitting, NEPA documentation, SFWMD Canal ROW permitting, and engineering services. City of Pembroke Pines Streetscape Design Guidelines - Miller Legg worked on the City of Pembroke Pines City Wide Streetscape Master Plan which included the creation of context sensitive design guidelines for the roadway corridors throughout the City including accommodations for mobility. This Master Plan looked at both the corridor segment and intersection component. Corridor segment components included: median plantings, ‘Side of Road’ (along the right-of-way or street edge) plantings, street trees and specialty plantings. Intersection segment components included: Median nose treatments, crosswalks, expanded pedestrian plazas at the corners, specialty items and icons. Components also included some specialty ‘Threshold’ Plantings, if there was adequate space. Residential streets included ‘Family Ways’. These streets are intra- neighborhood linkages with improvements designed to enhance alternative modes of transportation – such as walking and biking. The Family Ways more effectively links residential communities with schools and parks and with commercial nodes, too, for shopping and to promote commerce at a local level. City of Pembroke Pines D/B Taft Street Improvements - Miller Legg was on the RJ Behar team for this Taft Street Design Build project for the City of Pembroke Pines. The firm's scope of services was landscape architectural design and post design services and included the development of design and contract documents including plans and specifications. Support during the construction phase with Requests for Information and contractor submittals was also provided. City of Wilton Manors Public Complex - The objective of this project was to develop a sustainable design through the use of Best Management Practices, (BMP's) incorporating xeriscaping principles for irrigation and landscaping, including the careful selection of native and adaptive plant species which are hardy and adaptive to the South Florida sub-region, require minimal maintenance after initial plant establishment, avoid monoculture planting and would also thrive in the locations chosen and not require irrigation in the majority of the landscaped areas after the first year of plant establishment. Groundcover, instead of sod, was also incorporated to further achieve the long term goal of a sustainable environment, with regards to chemical uses and provides for an overall less intensive landscape for continued maintenance. Working closely with the Project Architect, the design team included the City's newly adopted Streetscape Design Guidelines and implemented a harmonious placement of plants to complement the building’s architectural features. Special focus was also given to incorporate shading for the City Hall Complex Building and in pedestrianized areas to reduce heat island effects and increase the energy efficiency of the future home for the City of Wilton Manors. Services provided for this project include development of conceptual and final landscape architecture plans, color renderings and construction phase services. City of Port St. Lucie US 1 Irrigation and Landscape Design - Miller Legg is preparing for the City of Port St. Lucie an update to the firm's 2015 irrigation and landscape design plans for 3.5 miles of US Highway 1 from Westmoreland Boulevard to Village Green Drive. Services comprise proposed concept and construction landscape and hardscape improvement plans including median hardscape design, shrub, groundcover and tree plantings or removal, irrigation design and utility coordination. The plans will be submitted to FDOT for approval. The scope includes a presentation of plan exhibits to the City Council by the firm. City of Miami River Greenways - Segment D – As a subconsultant, Miller Legg was contracted to prepare landscape architecture design plans for Segment D of the City of Miami Riverwalk/Greenway Program along the Miami River. The project area includes a four-block (3/10 of a mile) area in conjunction with roadway improvements to include an eight foot multi-use pathway, landscape, hardscape and site furnishings. The project was partially funded by the Local Agency Program.
