Award of Engineering Services for Demolition and Reconstruction of Sunny
Isles Beach/Newport Fishing Pier
Recommendation
I recommend Marlin Engineering, Inc. provide civil engineering services for the design,
specification, and permitting documents for the demolition and reconstruction of the Sunny Isles
Beach/Newport Fishing Pier. Specific elements of the scope of work are detailed in the attached
proposal. Cost of the proposal will be on an hourly rate not to exceed $441,303.00 Funding is
provided through a public/private partnership with Dr. Comfeld. Specifically, this is account #
20-600-5670.
Removal and replacement of the fishing pier needs to be accomplished in an expedient fashion
because the structure east of the shoreline is structurally deficient. As such, this recommendation
includes circumventing the quality-based selection procedure and going directly with Marlin
Engineering. Other reasons for doing this follow:
1. Marlin Engineering was recently selected as the most qualified firm to construct our
marine proj ects which are the' Pedestrian/Emergency Vehicular Bridge, and boardwalk.
2. Marlin Engineering has first-hand experience with the pier, as they conducted the
inspection thereof.
3. Attached is a cost analysis from Public Works & Engineering Director Rick Conner,
who is also a licensed professional engineer, indicating that compensation for
professional services to Marlin is reasonable.
Thank you.
