January 3, 2017 Sunny Isles Beach Government Center Attn: City Clerk 18070 Collins Avenue Sunny Isles Beach, Florida 33160 Re: City of Sunny Isles Beach - Professional Planning and Zoning Consulting Services, including Civil and Traffic Engineering, RFQ No. 16-12-01 Dear Selection Committee Members, With our team, you have a broad range of experts across diverse fields to help you plan, design, analyze, evaluate and implement a wide range of projects and tasks. Built on a foundation of serving public sector clients since 1946, our firm specializes in providing on-call services to cities, CRAs, counties, and special districts. Our firm is structured to provide full service teams to support large projects when needed, as well as individual specialists for quick turnaround tasks. The model is a proven success for public sector clients whose project needs range from the large scale, award- winning multi-phase Fort Myers Downtown Riverfront project with expected economic impact of $67 million, to the smaller scale tasks of inventorying and documenting trail signs for Miami-Dade County Parks, Recreation & Open Space in support of a wayfinding project. With decades of experience and diverse expertise, comes an understanding of what it takes to make plans and concepts transform from vision to reality. Our planners, ecologists, civil and environmental engineers, transportation engineers, landscape architects, and supporting staff are able to work together as a team with our clients from project inception through completion. Having team members who are accustomed to seeing plans through from concept to construction is a benefit because we identify challenges early and resolve them efficiently, whether it’s helping obtain grant funds to resolve fiscal constraints, or crafting policies and code that address context and avert unintended consequences. If selected, our firm will meet any location, budget, or task orders. We operate using workload projections to determine allocation of our personnel and resources on a six month basis. With over 120 employees and a current workload that translates to average utilization of 60%, we have personnel available to be dedicated to Sunny Isles Beach when called upon. Additionally, during the term of the Agreement we shall maintain in good standing all required licenses, certifications and permits required under federal, state and local laws necessary to perform planning, civil engineering, surveying and landscape architecture services. As your local project manager, my role is to mobilize the right personnel with the knowledge, expertise and capacity to be available to address any needs of Sunny Isles Beach. Additionally, as a planner certified by the American Institute of Certified Planners, I am committed to providing high-quality work within your budget and schedule. We look forward to working with you and exceeding your expectations. Sincerely, JOHNSON ENGINEERING, INC. Heidi Siegel, AICP Michael Dickey, P.E.
