HPF ASSOCIATES, INC January 25, 2015 Mr. Christopher J. Russo City Manager Sunny Isles Beach 18070 Collins Avenue Sunny Isles Beach, FL 33160. RE: Capital Projects Consulting Services Dear Mr. Manager; Thank you for the courtesy extended to HPF Associates, Inc. by inviting us to assist the City during the period of personnel transition. Our experience with other South Florida communities with projects of similar complexity puts us in a unique position to provide the services required during this interim period. I have reviewed the memorandums prepared by Helen Gray and the Pending Agenda On-Going Projects to be better familiarized with the priority of completion and to where our involvement would be best suited. First addressing MS Gray's writings, Newport Pier, and PCP Baseball Turf appear to be projects we are well versed in and of high priority. Referring to the PAOGP document, attached, Items, 2— 174th Street Drainage/Streetscape, 11 — City Facilities Repair, 17—Collins Ave Utility Undergroundinq, 26—Collins Ave FDOT Crosswalks, 31 — FPL Franchise Agreement(advisory only), 45—Samson Park Renovation, 47 — Signage(advisory only), would be appropriate assignments keeping with the urgency and priorities noted during our discussions. One area of concern mentioned during our briefing was the Golden Shores residential area which does not appear on any of the documents reviewed, this particular matter would be handled by an HPF associate minimizing the cost of a company Principal. I previously forwarded a copy of our present letter agreement with Indian Creek Village and can provide copies of our formal contracts with Key Biscayne and Golden Beach, on which, our services with SIB could be"piggy backed". Our current contractual obligations would allow for us commit approximately twenty (20) hours per week to SIB projects. We're note assuming that much time would be required on a consistent basis, only identifying the available time which we could allot to the assignment. As noted in the ICV letter we provide our services at an hourly rate, billable monthly. Items such as travel outside the local area, document reproduction, courier service and similar expenses would be billed in addition to the hourly rate at direct cost. Again, thank you for affording HPF this opportunity, we feel as though we can become an asset for SIB both on the short and long term. Respectfully submitted, PT,466ot' Paul T.
