REASONS: City Commission has established converting overhead FPL, ATT., and Atlantic Broadband/cable facilities to underground as a priority project. The main areas remaining in the City for conversion include the Collins Avenue corridor, Golden Shores, and the Central Area. In 2012, the City processed an RFQ for professional consulting services for this work. Keith and Schnars, PA was determined to be most qualified, and a fee proposal has been negotiated to advance this project. Given the complexity of the overall project, services will be performed in phases with this initial phase being for the Collins Avenue corridor only. This first phase includes assessment, data collection, refined cost estimates and schedules, and coordination with various utilities and service providers within the project limits. In addition, given the persistent problems with the consistent reliability of streetlights and the associated maintenance of the lighting facilities along Collins Avenue, Keith and Schnars will further investigate the existing system in an effort to determine what additional improvements may be appropriate to include in the overall undergrounding project. In an amount not to exceed $54,680.00 ATTACHMENTS: http://sibagenda.sibfl.net/Agenda/Preview.aspx?Iteml D=972&M eeti ngI D=0&MeetingDate... 2/14/2013
