CONSULTING ENGINEERING SERVICES FOR Golden Shores Utility Undergrounding and Roadway Improvements E–2IWOP41002.18w_Sunny Isles Beach Golden Shores Undergrounding.indd Team Organization Even the most experienced and dedicated manager would not be able to produce the highest quality work without a complete and committed team of professionals. We offer you a depth of staff and teaming partners unrivaled by other consultants as to experience with aerial conversion projects. We have numerous professionals on our team with diverse experience and educational backgrounds capable of handling complicated and intricate projects such as this one. Kimley-Horn has prepared numerous underground utility designs across the country. Just about every land development, transit, and major infrastructure upgrade we perform involves the installation of underground electric, telephone, and cable utilities. From simple services for commercial and residential buildings to streetscape renovations like Worth Avenue to massive infrastructure projects like the Miami World Center in downtown Miami, Kimley-Horn has designed the conduit runs, pullbox locations, and extensively coordinated with the utility providers to deliver completed underground utility projects to the client. Utility Provider Coordination Kimley-Horn has extensive experience in the coordination of dry utility design with various providers like FPL, AT&T and Comcast. This level of coordination ranges from the provision of simple services for small- scale land development projects all the way to the relocation and/or undergrounding of various facilities related to large-scale infrastructure projects. Kimley-Horn has coordinated utility relocations, designs, and undergrounding in the Town of Palm Beach, Village of Key Biscayne, and on various smaller scale neighborhood and streetscape projects throughout southeast Florida. We anticipate that we will continue working with folks like John Lehr at FPL, Lilliam Simon and Andrew Hernandez at AT&T, Leonard Maxwell-Newbold and Ricardo Davidson at Comcast, and Peter Freytag with Atlantic Broadband for the execution of this phase. Easement Acquisition Kimley-Horn regularly partners with municipalities on a variety of projects to acquire easements needed for public infrastructure. Our experience includes obtaining numerous temporary and permanent easements for undergrounding projects when right-of-way is not sufficient to accommodate the equipment necessary for pad mounted electrical equipment and low voltage pedestals. In the likely event that an easement will need to be acquired, we have partnered with Waypoint Engineering and Equipment, LLC to assist with the easement acquisition process. Kimley-Horn has partnered with them on past projects and they were instrumental in negotiating dozens of easements with private property owners that were required for undergrounding. They have the ability to negotiate with property owners quickly because of their electrical design expertise and knowing where equipment can and cannot be moved. Kimley-Horn will also employ the services of Longitude Surveyors, LLC, our project surveyor, to prepare the sketches and legal descriptions that will be used to describe easements on each property, as may be needed. Landscape Architecture and Streetscape The firm’s landscape architects and urban planners have varied public sector experience ranging from corridor plans and downtown streetscape programs to parks and recreation planning. They emphasize the development of a pleasing visual environment, distinctive image, and strong sense of place while remaining sensitive to budget and long-term maintenance obligations. Kimley-Horn provides full-service visioning and design through engineering and construction administration
