• Russell Barnes, P.E. ® Page 2 ® Representative Experience (continued) ® North Shore Area Roadway Improvements, Miami Beach, FL—Served as manager for the utility work and ® the sanitary sewer inflow/infiltration investigation on this urban streetscape improvement project in the North ® Shore area of Miami Beach. The firm was successful in obtaining over $8 million in county and state funding in addition to a $1.6 million ISTEA grant through the Metropolitan Planning Organization for development of a I® 1.5-mile bicycle/pedestrian corridor along the oceanfront. ® Sanitary Sewer Flow Capacity Study (East Island), Bay Harbor Islands, FL—As project engineer, performed flow ® capacity analysis of gravity sewer system to determine system deficiencies and identify needed improvements. ® This study determined the existing capacity of the system, as well as the capacity after expected development. Performed an impact fee analysis to determine the sewer impact fee for future development. ® Town of Bay Harbor Islands Community Enhancement Master Plan, Bay Harbor Islands, FL—As project manager, oversaw efforts to develop a comprehensive community enhancement program for the entire town. ® Key to the development of the program was the identification of the appropriate cross-section for the Town's ® residential streets. Of central concern to Town residents was the calming of local traffic, the inclusion of bicycle ® accommodations, on-street parking, and a typical section that provided a landscaped area separating the sidewalk from driving lanes. The use of computer-enhanced images was a powerful tool in communicating • various options to area residents, and were highly effective in helping the Town and the neighborhood to ® identify the solution which best fit their needs. Performed a variety of services to develop a vision for the initial phase of the Community Enhancement Master Plan including: conducting a series of public workshops to ® identify the needs of the residents; reaching agreement on minimizing roadway cross-sections in support of ® narrowing the street to calm local traffic and permit the use of landscaped areas that separate private property ® from the travel lanes; discussing cost alternatives and phasing opportunities that would provide maximum flexibility in project implementation resulting from limited funding sources; and presenting options for ® neighborhood entry design that serves to reinforce neighborhood identity, enhance security, and calm traffic. ® Town of Bay Harbor Islands Business District Revitalization, Bay Harbor Islands, FL— Served as project • manager for this community enhancement program which included design and permitting services, roadway ® improvements, stormwater management, stormwater treatment, and a stormwater pump station. ® Citywide Wastewater Inflow/Infiltration Study and Mitigation Program, Miami Beach, FL— Project manager ® for the 150-mile citywide sewer evaluation and trenchless method rehabilitation design project. This highly successful program employed a multi-phased approach beginning with broad program development and ® proceeding with successively narrowing targets of further study, resulting in reconstruction of only those ® portions of the sanitary system that would provide substantial, cost-effective Ill elimination. The initial study ® identified 8 MGD of infiltration into the system. Subsequent phases involved identifying the sources of the I/I, designing corrective rehabilitations, and providing oversight of the construction. By working closely with ® rehabilitation contractors, Kimley-Horn was able to obtain some of the lowest per-unit costs in the country. ® Also developed the concept and application for a South Florida Water Management District grant for the City ® of Miami Beach, and have secured $50 million in bond financing. The program was structured so that the savings in treatment costs would fully pay the debt services on the bonds. ® Street Closure (West Island), Bay Harbor Islands, FL— Project manager working extensively with the Town of Bay Harbor Islands and the FDOT to develop landscaped road closures that form a regal gateway from I® the west complementing the eastern gateway. The permanent landscaped road closures were designed ® to improve safety and significantly enhance the roadways on the west island. Key to implementation of the project was our successful application for an FDOT Beautification Grant . The roadway was reconfigured to ® meet all FDOT standards. • ® RFo No 12-01-02 P�fl Kimley-Horn ® OY290015.12o Sunny Isles Crai-Emvonmerral Eng Resumes.indd \ and Agcnciates,Inc 3-6
