r ri � 85)), Calvin, Giordano & Associates, Inc. C A SAFEbuilf COMPANY Roadway Engineering CGA has provided engineering design, permitting and post design services for numerous municipalities and the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT). These projects required design for milling and resurfacing, sign and pavement markings, gravity wall, signalization, lighting, curb and gutter, sidewalk, safety improvements, traffic monitoring site upgrade and installation, and utility coordination including all above ground and underground utilities. We have completed projects that involved widening of the roadway, extensions of turn lanes, and construction of ADA compliant sidewalks after the installation of new water mains, sanitary sewer, and under grounding of electrical power, cable television, and telephone lines, curb and gutter, retention areas, pollution retardant devices, and stormwater collection systems. Other design projects involved upgrades to roadways from a two- lane rural section to a four -lane major collector, complete streets improvements that included wider sidewalks, added bike lanes and installation of new landscaped medians, which created a safer environment for drivers and a more pedestrian friendly environment. CCA's design experience coupled with knowledge of local, state, and federal codes and regulations, and positive relationships with local, state and federal permitting agencies allows us to provide the expertise necessary to deliver an exceptional solution to the City of Sunny Isles Beach. Sustainability Awareness Town of Bay Harbor Islands Broad Causeway CGA has a clear understanding of the City's vulnerabilities to the impacts of climate change. Climate change is a global issue with regionally specific impacts. Of the many factors that may challenge community resiliency, climate change is a critical force. At the City level climate change: • Will bring varying precipitation patterns increasing the potentials for drought or flood; • Has the potential to increased storm and hurricane intensity; • Will cause prolonged periods of high temperatures threatening vulnerable members of the community and greatly increase energy use; • Increases sea temperatures and ocean acidification compromising the viability of the offshore protective reef systems; • Creates conditions to introduce and increase the presence of tropical diseases that had not historically been concerns; and • Is causing rising sea levels. Due to the geophysical location and characteristics of the City, sea level rise alone has the potential to be enormously disruptive and destructive both physically and economically. The challenges associated with the rising sea includes: Intrusion into the freshwater source for potable water; • Increases in storm surges; • Jeopardized viability of protective nearshore freshwater vegetative systems; • Decreasing functionality of the stormwater drainage systems; • Intrusion into stormwater and sewer systems where leaks occur in aging infrastructure; • Flooding in neighborhoods and roadways; • Releases of contaminants, debris, or hazardous materials associated with flooding; • Rising ground water elevations, and • Loss of services and impaired access to infrastructure.
