RE: RPS 17-7213 Engineering Services for Goodland Drive Rehabilitation Project (CR 92A)
Dear Ms. Colon and Selection Committee Members:
Q. Grady Minor & Associates, P.A. (GradyMinor) is pleased to submit this Professional Services proposal for the Goodland Drive
Rehabilitation project (CR92A). Goodland Drive is a two lane roadway that provides the only land access to the community of
Goodland. The existing roadway is vulnerable to flooding from spring tides and intense rain events. The lack of sufficient cross
drainage limits tidal flow to the mangrove forest west of the roadway. Improvements to Goodland Drive shall eliminate the
sporadic flooding and improve tidal flow to the mangrove forest. A well thought out and designed roadway improvement project
can enhance the community significantly by providing a safer and more reliable connection from Goodland to the surrounding
area. GradyMinor recently completed the survey, design, permitting, and construction management of the water main replacement
along Goodland Drive from San Marco Road to Harbor Place. Included with this project was permitting through the FDEP (PWS
and ERP), Army Corps of Engineers, City of Marco Island and Collier County. Additionally, GradyMinor provided public
relations services, including several Goodland community meetings during the design and construction phases. Our past
experience with the Goodland Community and Goodland Drive has allowed us to gain the Community’s trust as well as intimate
knowledge of the project area.
GradyMinor has been serving public and private sector clients in southwest Florida with engineering, planning, landscape
architecture and surveying for 35 years. Our office is located just over 30 miles from Goodland and just 15 miles to the County’s
offices. Nearly half of our nearly 50 employees live in Collier County, including our president (Mark W. Minor, P.E.) and
Principal Planner and Secretary Wayne Arnold, A.I.C.P., the two owners of the firm. We have carefully chosen our sub-consultant
team including, DRMP who will enhance planning and design with their expert level of technical abilities.
We, along with our team of sub-consultants, will provide Collier County with excellent customer service, which will exceed your
expectations at a good value while successfully completing this project. It is our philosophy to provide expert engineering services
along with the best in customer service all in a professional, polite and productive manner.
We have prepared the following Qualifications Package to demonstrate our desire and ability to provide services related to the
rehabilitation of Goodland Drive to eliminate sporadic high tide and rain created flooding and improve tidal flow limitations to
the mangrove forest west of the roadway.
We look forward to working together with you and to the success of this project.
Very truly yours,
Justin Frederiksen, P.E. R. Daniel Flynn, P.E.

Section 1 – Ability of Professional Personnel
GradyMinor has assembled an experienced and strategic
team for the Goodland Drive Rehabilitation Project
(Project) that will be managed by local experts with
established relationships within Collier County and key
stakeholders within the Town of Goodland. Understanding
the Goodland community and what is important to them will
be essential to the success of this project. GradyMinor has
recent experience on a successful utility replacement project
along the entire Project corridor. Like many of the other
teams submitting on this project, the GradyMinor team has
the technical experience and knowledge necessary to
successfully design and permit the rehabilitation of
Goodland Drive. However, GradyMinor’s recent
experience and established relationships with Goodland’s
key stakeholders cannot be matched by other teams and will
result in a well-received project from design through
construction. During the Goodland Drive Water Main
Replacement project, GradyMinor managed the community
outreach (design through construction), which included
mailings, door hangers, one-on-one meetings with
concerned residents and business owners, and three neighborhood informational meetings to the Goodland community to inform
the community of the project and receive input from the affected business owners and residents. Additionally, GradyMinor
established and monitored (24/7) a project phone line that allowed concerned community members to call anytime, any day and
reach a person knowledgeable about the Project.
To complement our local experience and relationships we have assembled a highly experienced team with a wealth of technical
knowledge and experience to ensure we will be able to overcome any challenge the Project may present. Our team has a proven
track record in all the work groups that may be required for the Project.
The Roadway Design for Goodland Drive will be prepared per the Florida Department of
Transportation (FDOT) design and construction criteria. To ensure the project meets this
requirement, GradyMinor has included DRMP, a highly experienced FDOT design firm, on
our team. GradyMinor’s Daniel Flynn will be the Project Manager for the Project and has
extensive experience with DRMP, as Daniel began his engineering career with DRMP. Daniel
has maintained good relationships with DRMP and often collaborates with DRMP employees,
including his father, a longtime DRMP designer. Daniel’s established relationship and history
with the team along with his local knowledge of regulatory and construction conditions, will
guarantee the Goodland Drive Rehabilitation project will be a successful project.
GradyMinor’s proposed organizational chart, with all key team members and office locations is provided on the following page.

RELEVANT PROJECT EXPERIENCE
US 27 Widening and Resurfacing Barry Road to US 192, FDOT District One, Polk
County, Florida: Project Manager/Engineer of Record for the project included
design of 4-lanes to 6-lanes widening and resurfacing on 4.2 miles of major
rural arterial roadway in the Disney World area. Design included roadway
widening, resurfacing and cross slope analysis, pavement design and drainage
improvements, safety improvements, lowering US 192 under the existing bridge
to allow widening and create required bridge to roadway clearance, traffic control
plans, pavement marking and signing, traffic analysis and design of three new
traffic signals. A lighting justification report has been completed. Project also
required traffic volume studies and projections for design year traffic volumes
and pavement designs. Project included stormwater system design, sound barrier
installation, landscaping, and environmental considerations as well. (Design
Services – 2011 Construction Services – Ongoing – as of July 2014)
SR 585 Urban Modifications/Lane Reduction, FDOT District Seven, Hillsborough
County, Florida: Project Manager for the SR 585 project limits extend from SR 60
to Hillsborough Avenue and are defined by three distinct typical sections. The
first segment extends from SR 60 to East 21st Avenue (1 mile) and looks at lane
reductions on 21st Street and 22nd Street, which currently exist as a one-way
pair, with each street having three lanes. This one-way pair currently serves as the
truck route to the Port of Tampa. The reason for the lane reduction is that all truck
traffic will be diverted to the interstate connector currently being constructed
between I-4 and the Lee Roy Selmon Expressway. All non-local truck traffic will
be required to use the new interstate connector upon its completion in 2014.
As a result the reduced traffic on 21st Street and 22nd Street will allow for the
reconfiguration from three lanes to two lanes with a parking lane and landscaped
islands. The second segment of the project, from East 21st Avenue to MLK
Boulevard (0.75 mile), is currently being reconfigured by the City of Tampa into a
two-lane roadway with a raised median. The requirements through this segment will be to study the connectivity of
bike lanes throughout the corridor. The last segment extends from MLK Boulevard to Hillsborough Avenue (1 mile)
and exists as a two-lane rural section in an urban setting. The requirements in this section will be to provide multi-
modal connectivity of sidewalks, bike lanes, and bus stops. This project involves drainage storm sewer inventory,
traffic operations, pedestrian/ADA upgrades, signing and marking, streetscaping and landscaping, and roadway
design. (Design Services – 2014 Construction Services – 2016 est.)

SECTION 3 – PAST EXPERIENCE
Collier County RPS 17-7213 Section 3-1
Section 3 – Past Performance
The majority of GradyMinor’s work comes from repeat business. We have become the “go to” firm for many municipal clients
in SW Florida and we are known for having a “can do” attitude to accomplish the project goals. We are not a top heavy firm and
strive to team with similar firms to ensure the fees paid for professional services not only stay in Southwest Florida but go to the
professionals performing the work on the project, not to corporate headquarters out of state or out of the Country.
GradyMinor believes that the success of any project
relies on our ability to communicate directly and
effectively with all other parties involved in the
process, including County Staff, Contractors and the
General Public. This communication serves to
establish appropriate expectations of all involved and
serves to foster the team environment that can be put
to use to overcome challenges that may arise during
a project. All of our project managers have company
provided smart phones, the numbers for which will
be provided to Collier County. We pledge to
communicate regularly with the County; return
phone calls and e-mails; be on time to meetings; work
diligently; provide accurate, detailed, and
economically feasible and constructible plans and
specifications. Our recent and on-going work for
local municipalities gives us significant insight,
experience, and local knowledge that will be
extremely useful in design and permitting issues that
will be faced with this project. Additionally, we have
good relationships with local Contractors and we
believe in tapping the experience of local
Contractors to ensure our designs are economical and
constructible.
For example our team has already reached out to a
local roadway Contractor to receive their opinion
on potential construction techniques that could be
utilized for the maintenance of traffic on the Goodland Drive Rehabilitation Project. The Contractor mentioned the potential
use of gabion baskets to help stabilize the fill with the addition of temporary barrier walls, due to the drop off created by the
gabion baskets. This technique could help minimize the clearing and grubbing limits by eliminating the need for the 4:1
slope requirements within the clear zone, per FDOT Index 600.

Over the past 35+ years of providing services in Florida, the GradyMinor team has established an exceptional relationship with
the local regulatory agencies and their staff. Our team’s experience and knowledge of permitting agency’s requirements and
tendencies will be put to use on this Project to prepare submittals and responses that contain appropriate information and levels
of detail that help eliminate extensive comments and questions by these agencies. The Goodland Drive Rehabilitation project
will require permitting through the ACOE, SFWMD, and FDEP. As depicted on the following page, the GradyMinor team has

Collier County RPS 17-7213 Section 3-4
3rd Ave South Improvements, City of Naples CRA:
GradyMinor was selected by the City of Naples and the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) to provide permitting and
final design for the reconstruction of 3rd Avenue South from 9th Street (US41) to 10th Street, including a roundabout intersection
at 3rd Avenue South and 10th Street. GradyMinor’s scope also included conceptual designs for 3rd Avenue South from Gulf
Shore Boulevard South east to 10th Street South.
An east/west corridor that was recently connected to Goodlette Frank Road (a 6-lane arterial roadway); 3rd Avenue South has
become a highly used roadway for vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists. Third Avenue South has residential and commercial regions,
multifamily developments, undeveloped portions, a hotel, and Gulf View Middle School along the 1 mile roadway. This roadway
is designated in the City’s Naples Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) Plan as a pedestrian and cyclist corridor, but does
not provide continuous sidewalks nor bicycle lanes, not meeting the City’s “complete streets” policy, and does not have a street
image consistent with the Naples brand.
Community Involvement
GradyMinor’s contract included meeting with key stakeholders early in the
project to learn of any concerns and planned development. Key stakeholders
GradyMinor met with included outspoken residents and business owners, the
Naples Pathways Coalition, developers, and the School District of Collier
County. Our first stakeholder meeting was deliberately, “right out of the gate”
and consisted of individual meetings to simply listen to their thoughts,
concerns, and opinions. From this meeting we came up with several concepts
for the City and stakeholder’s review and comment. Ultimately, a 24"x96” roll
plot was developed by GradyMinor depicting the entire 1-mile project area
with the existing conditions and three potential concepts, which was presented
at public meetings, including a public charrette, CRAAB, and CRA/City
Council meetings. To help the City Council and the public visualize the
proposed improvements, GradyMinor created a 3D animation of the conceptual improvements from 8th street to 10th Street
including the two proposed roundabouts that can be viewed at the following link:

roundabout intersection at 3rd Avenue South and 10th Street, and subsequently authorized GradyMinor to permit and design the
improvements. Permitting for this project was required through FDOT, the SFWMD, and FDEP. Challenges arose during
permitting with the FDOT due to the lane alignments within the 900 block not matching FDOT’s records. GradyMinor was able
to efficiently coordinate with the FDOT and the City of Naples to come up with a solution. Permitting through the SFWMD was
also required for the improvements along 3rd Avenue South. A minor modification to an existing permit was necessary due to the
increase of impervious area and GradyMinor was able to receive the permit with just one submittal. Obtaining the permit without
receiving a Request for Additional Information (RAI) letter allowed GradyMinor to move forward with finalizing the drainage
design which ultimately allowed them to meet the aggressive design schedule. Additionally, the alignment of the 3rd Avenue and
10th Street was a challenge as a result of the northern and southern ROWs at the intersection not aligning by 10 feet on the north
side and 15 feet on the south and the ROWs being different widths (80 feet west of the intersection and 75 feet east). While the
modern roundabout intersection design was a good fit for the misaligned ROWs, impacts to private property were unavoidable
without sacrificing bike lanes or sidewalk widths. All the roadway improvements fit into the ROW, but a small portion of the
sidewalks at the southeast and northeast corners extended onto private property outside of the ROW and grading into private
property was required at the southwest corner to ensure maximum slopes were not exceeded. In order keep the project consistent
with the City’s complete street policy, easements were negotiated from three different owners/entities; two permanent sidewalk
easements from the Naples Square Residential Property Owners Association and one temporary construction easement to allow
grading at the ROW line from Robb & Stucky Furniture Store. City staff and GradyMinor worked extensively with representatives
of Naples Square and individual unit owners, to gain approval of the permanent easements required.
The project started construction in July with the
goal to be open prior to Thanksgiving due to the
increase of traffic from all the seasonal residents
returning. GradyMinor worked closely with the
Contractor and the City to ensure clear direction
was delivered in timely manner when
unanticipated issues arose during construction.
The project was deemed substantially complete
and safe to open to the public the week before
Thanksgiving. This summer provided plenty of
opportunities to delay the schedule due to the
rainy season and Hurricane Irma, but the team
continued to push and ultimately the project was
successfully completed on time and within the
City’s budget.

Goodland Drive Water Main Replacement:
GradyMinor’s design, permitting, public relations, and construction management for the water main replacement along Goodland
Drive (completed in summer 2017) gives us significant recent insight and experience that will translate to efficiencies in
completing the Goodland Drive Rehabilitation project.
We recently completed the survey along the entire project (San Marco
Road to Harbor Place South). Our recent survey included:
Identifying Right-of-Way (ROW) limits, edge of pavement,
driveways, sidewalks, significant improvements in the ROW,
culverts and storm structures (with size, material and invert
depths), visible above ground utility features, and
topographic data.
Cross sections every 50 feet
Establishment of survey control and benchmarks.
Subsurface utility excavation of the existing water main to
verify the size, depth, and location of the existing main along
Goodland Drive.
Utility coordination through Sunshine811
We successfully completed permitting along the entire project route through
FDEP (PWS and ERP), City of Marco Island, Collier County, and the ACOE.
We completed a field inspection of the entire project limits with ACOE staff.
We conducted three Goodland community meetings.
We provided construction administration and public relations services.
We have thoroughly reviewed all the available documents and record drawings
for improvements along Goodland Drive including the existing twin 38”x60”
elliptical reinforced concrete pipes under Goodland Drive, located just south of
the Goodland Pump Station.
Collier County’s water main along Goodland Drive is the sole source of potable water for the Town of Goodland. The existing
water main has been a persistent problem for the County, caused in part due to the corrosive environment along the project route
that has resulted in premature failure to valves and fittings on the water main. Repairs to the existing water main requires the
entire Town’s potable water supply to be temporarily shut down and the entire Town placed on a precautionary boil water notice.
The water main was designed with a series of +/- 1,000 feet directional drills to facilitate construction along Goodland Drive
which often floods and to ensure the new water main would not be in conflict with planned improvements to Goodland Drive (the
Goodland Drive Rehabilitation Project). While the replacement of problematic water main is typically not a contention issue with
communities (except for restoration concerns and work during the tourist season), during our first community meeting we quickly
learned how passionate the Town of Goodland and the key stakeholders in the community were about the timing of the project.
Typically the height of the winter season in Collier County begins at Thanksgiving and thus projects that affect seasonal regions
are typically required to be complete by Thanksgiving. This typical schedule was unacceptable by the businesses of Goodland
because of stone crab season beginning on October 15th. As a result of this input the construction contract for the water main
replacement project include the requirement that the project had to be complete by October 1st.
One of the comments GradyMinor received at the first the Goodland Water Main Replacement project community meeting was
that the meetings needed to be closer to the location of the project to make it very easy for business owners and residents attend.
Existing Utilities and Storm Culvert Goodland Drive
Collier County RPS 17-7213 Section 3-7
The meeting was held at the closest indoor facility with ADA
access and sufficient parking, which was approximately 5
miles from the project site on Marco Island. The business
owners and residents at this meeting were very upset by the
location and said they would prefer being closer to the project
site, even if it meant in a non‐air conditioned space or outdoors.
Because of this input, the second community meeting was held
under the shade of a park pavilion 0.5 miles from the project
site and the attendance nearly tripled. In the end, the water
main replacement project was complete on time and the project
was well received by the business owners and residents within
the Town of Goodland. Towns people even brought lunch to
the construction crew many times and the local newspaper (Coastal Breeze) wrote glowing reviews of the project. One additional
lesson learned from the Goodland Drive Water Main Replacement project was how to communicate with the key stakeholders
and businesses in the Town of Goodland. We could not rely on mailings, door hangers, or emails; phone calls to some key
stakeholders and business owners were required to ensure you reach them, especially the five main businesses in Goodland (Stan’s
Idle Hour, Kirk Fish Company, Old Marco Lodge, Crabby Lady Restaurant, and the Pink House). The Goodland Drive
Rehabilitation project must bring the businesses into the conversation early during design.
The business owners and residents of the Town of Goodland are passionate people that will tell you point blank their feelings,
they will not allow a project that impacts their livelihood. GradyMinor knows this and already understands the resident and
businesses needs and desires. They will be comfortable with GradyMinor, which will help the Goodland Drive Rehabilitation
Project go smoothly.

Pelican Landing Road Restoration Project, Naples Florida:
GradyMinor was the design engineer for a roadway restoration project within the
community of Pelican Landing located in Bonita Springs Florida. Pelican Landing is
a large private community located in southwest Florida that stretches over 2,365 acres.
The scope of work consisted of a pavement rehabilitation project for over 13 miles of
roadway within Pelican Landing. During the initial field inspections, prior to the
commencement of the design, it was determined that the project would need to be
expanded to include the pedestrian facilities due to the mature landscaping impacting
the sidewalks and pathways. Project Manager (Daniel Flynn, P.E) walked all 13 miles
of the project and identified the areas that were not ADA compliant and required
improvements. During the initial pavement inspection it was noted that majority of
the roadways within the community was experiencing fatigue cracking due to the
pavement being at the end of the design life. However, there were also areas that
showed signs of root intrusion which resulted in cracking and heaving of the pavement
which allowed water to infiltrate into the base and subgrade. These areas along the
roadway were identified on the plans and required full depth base reconstruction along
with the addition of root barrier as depicted in the picture to the right.
GradyMinor assisted Pelican Landing in advertising the
roadway restoration project and ultimately
recommended the award of the contract to a large
national paving contractor. GradyMinor worked with
the Contractor to establish a MOT plan for the
construction operation and also provided inspection
services to the Association to ensure the MOT was
being applied during the construction. This was an
extremely large project (over $1,000,000) for the
private community to undertake and GradyMinor
provided on-call construction services to ensure that the
project be completed on schedule and within the
original budget. The public relations aspect of this
project was very involved due to the intrusive nature of
the taking place within a private community. The
residents were very vocal about their frustration
throughout the construction phase, especially when
construction was happening right in front of their
property. GradyMinor responded in person to countless
questions from residents as the construction operation
moved throughout the community. The majority of the frustrated residents within Pelican Landing found it refreshing to be
educated by Daniel on the improvements being constructed in their “front yard”. The project was completed on-time and within
budget.

Barefoot Williams Road Widening, Collier County:
GradyMinor was the design engineer for the widening of Barefoot Williams Road extending from south of Griffin Road to the
intersection of Barefoot Williams Road and Price Street. The project was driven in part by the need to provide multimodal
connectivity for the Artesia community to the existing pedestrian communities along US41. The project included widening the
existing roadway 2’ and the addition of an 8’ multi-use pathway. Furthermore, the design included a 5’ sidewalk along Price
Street. The project included many meetings with outspoken property owners during design, especially for the sidewalk along
Price Street as the sidewalk was proposed at the ROW/property lines. This project provided a crucial pedestrian connectivity link.
Barefoot Williams Road has a narrow (60 foot) ROW with steep open stormwater swales, requiring creative solutions to achieve
the proposed widening and the addition of the multi-use pathway. Additionally, Barefoot Williams Road does not have a typical
crowned cross section, both lanes slope towards the existing canal on the east side of the road, making it difficult to meet clear
zone requirements while also providing the necessary room for the multi-purpose path without handrail. GradyMinor provided
detailed plans that included modified drainage structures to make the drainage design work. This project was permitted through
SFWMD and GradyMinor met with SFWMD staff on-site to make sure concerns that were brought up during their review were
properly vetted prior to issuance of the permit. Lastly, the existing ROW had significant existing utilities which required
coordination during design ensuring existing utilities were not in conflict with the proposed improvements or were relocated prior
to construction.

White Boulevard and 23rd Street Intersection Improvement, Collier County:
GradyMinor was contracted by the Collier County Road and
Bridge Department to provide professional services for surveying,
engineering design, permitting, and construction management for
the reconstruction of the White Boulevard Bridge over the Golden
Gate Canal and the reconstruction of the intersection of White
Boulevard and 23rd Street SW. The improvements included the
reconstruction of the White Boulevard bridge to raise the bridge
several feet to meet current flood requirements; the replacement
of a 30-inch raw water main; a five foot sidewalk along the north
side of White Boulevard; and reconstruction of the intersection of
White Boulevard and 23rd Street SW to improve traffic flow by
providing a curve, in lieu of a tee intersection, along White
Boulevard. Surveying included cross sections of the Golden Gate
Canal, establishment of horizontal and vertical control; right-of-
way establishment per the recorded plat; field location of existing
above ground improvements and existing topography; preparation
of CAD files of existing conditions and topography. Permitting
was required through the SFWMD, FDEP, and Collier County.
The redesign of the intersection of White Boulevard and 23rd Street Southwest was well received by the residents of Golden Gate
that use this portion of the roadway daily. Shortly after the project was completed, a resident of Golden Gate wrote a letter to the
local newspaper extending a “well done” to the County.

Gulf Shore Boulevard North Stormwater Improvements, City of Naples:
GradyMinor was contracted by the City of Naples to perform the hydraulic analysis, design, permitting, bidding services, and
construction management for sidewalk and drainage improvements along Gulf Shore Boulevard North consisting of
approximately 4,280 LF of storm sewer piping, 33 drainage inlets, and 3 outfalls. This high profile project directly in front of the
Naples Beach Hotel and Golf Club required extensive coordination with the surrounding businesses and residents. The
construction of the project could not begin until after Easter and had to be completed in time for the scheduled resurfacing of Gulf
Shore Boulevard North that had to be completed by November 2017. This region of Gulf Shore Boulevard was a chronic flooding
issue and it was not uncommon to have standing water on the roadway after a typical rainfall, especially during high tides. The
improvements affected the entire right-of-way and required a detailed Maintenance of Traffic plan to ensure access was provided
for pedestrians and vehicles throughout the duration of the project. The managing of pedestrians was particularly challenging
during the work affected the right of way in front of the Hotel’s registration and valet parking circle. Flaggers were required to
assist Hotel guests to walk to/from the Hotel’s registration with luggage in tow. GradyMinor assisted the City in nearly daily
communications with the Naples Beach Hotel management staff, including the owner.
As part of GradyMinor’s design, the location of a future reclaimed water main was
taken into consideration to avoid future conflicts. Extensive utility locating
(including soft digs) and coordination with existing utility providers was required due
to the very crowded ROW within the project limits included existing water,
wastewater, cable, gas, electric, telephone, and fiber optic cables. All of these utilities
were considered to avoid construction conflicts. Additionally, a drainage easement
was required from the Naples Beach Hotel and Golf Club to accommodate a section
of drainage pipe that could not be placed within the right of way due to the incredible
amount of existing utilities within the right of way.
Utility Locates
Collier County RPS 17-7213 Section 3-12
During the design, special attention was required to tie in a proposed drainage structures along Gulf Shore Boulevard into an
existing 60” x 39” sluice outfall that was originally constructed with the hotel. GradyMinor coordinated with Coastal Precast of
Florida directly to confirm the drainage structures detailed on the plans was the most economical way to connect to the existing
outfall. At GradyMinor, we pride ourselves on communications and thinking outside of the box to make sure our design are not
only functional but also economical so the improvements can be constructed within our client’s budget and without costly change
orders during construction.
GradyMinor’s design included detailed signing and pavement marking plans which altered the pedestrian movement through the
project corridor to be safer and better separate pedestrians from the busy Hotel valet circle.

City of Bonita Sidewalk Projects, City of Bonita Springs Public Works:
GradyMinor was contracted by the City of Bonita Springs to provide professional services for the design, permitting and
construction administration for nearly two miles of new sidewalks along existing roadway ROWs. The project was broken into
three different phases, each were located in regions with heavy pedestrian use. The phases were designed to accommodate
available construction funding, but combined for permitting to streamline the permitting process. One phase of the sidewalk
project was partially funded by Community Development Block Grant Funding from Lee County.
The sidewalks were designed and constructed to be five or six feet in width and generally three feet or greater from the edge of
the existing pavement. This separation was determined by keeping the maximum distance from the edge of travel while
maintaining the existing drainage conditions. In various locations, the sidewalk meanders to avoid existing conflicts. All
improvements were designed to FDOT and ADA requirements.
An example of one of the phases is provided below:
Shangri La Road Sidewalk Addition:
The Shangri La Road Sidewalk Addition project was the second phase of the
sidewalk improvement project and included residential and commercial portions.
This project connected a newly widened portion of Shangri La Road to Old 41
Road. An existing sidewalk and curb ramp at the intersection of Shangri La Road
and Old 41 was utilized as the easternmost point of the project. The sidewalk
constructed with this project extends 2,215 LF to the west and ties into the sidewalk
on Shangri La Road. With limited available ROW, 10 feet to 13 feet from the edge
of pavement, an accurate understanding of the existing conditions was necessary
for the success of this project. The proposed design included the addition of 2,215
feet of five and six foot wide concrete sidewalk. Provided below are some
highlights of the design.
A low gravity wall for grade transition to the
existing swale prior to the right-of-way while
maintaining the existing drainage pattern. The
gravity wall was designed to provide the necessary
recover area to avoid the addition of a guiderail
along the entire length of this condition.
Providing proper signage and pavement markings
for midblock crossings.

DRMP’s highlighted projects:
SR 597 (Dale Mabry Highway) County Line
to Brinson Road, FDOT District Seven,
Pasco County, Florida: DRMP was responsible for
the design of new sidewalk and resurfacing (RRR) project on
Dale Mabry Highway from County Line Road to south of SR
54 in Pasco County. The project length was approximately 1-
mile. The work involved resurfacing, safety improvements,
drainage improvements to alleviate flooding, and new
sidewalk construction on both sides of Dale Mabry Highway.
The sidewalk was designed to avoid wetland, floodplain and
utility impacts to the greatest extent possible. Some wetland
impacts were unavoidable and required SWFWMD and
ACOE permitting. The project also involved survey, SUE,
drainage and permitting, ADA upgrades, signing and marking
plans, milling and resurfacing, turn lane operational
improvements, rail improvements and MOT.
FDOT District Seven recognized the need to resurface the roadway as well
as to provide for bicycle and pedestrian access along this busy roadway in
north Tampa. The challenge of providing bike lanes and sidewalk on both
sides of the roadway was complicated by the close proximity of the adjacent
wetlands. The corridor also contained floodplain and existing utilities.
DRMP used the FDOT District Seven Sidewalk Evaluation Matrix as a tool
to assist with the sidewalk placement. The matrix documents the decision
making process on where the sidewalk should be constructed to maximize
pedestrian safety while minimizing impacts to wetlands, floodplain, and
existing utilities. DRMP was able to design the new sidewalk to minimize
impacts to the wetlands. Permits were secured from both the SWFWMD as
well as the US Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) by showing avoidance and
minor environmental impacts. In the environmental documentation and
UMAM assessment, DRMP was able to take advantage of a nearby FDOT mitigation site that was constructed for the original
widening of Dale Mabry Highway. Floodplain impacts were compensated for by excavating additional volume within the
existing right of way.
A hydraulic model for the Anclote River watershed was used to determine the
latest flood elevations. Roadway flooding at the intersection was alleviated
by providing drainage improvements to direct the runoff to an outfall.
The design was able to benefit the community by providing a safe means of
cooperative transportation for motorists, cyclists, runners, walkers and transit.
The newly resurfaced roadway and new sidewalks have provided the users
with a safe means of multimodal transportation for years to come.

W. Idlewild Avenue Drainage Improvements Hillsborough County, Florida:
Under the Hillsborough County Stormwater and Environmental
Continuing Services Contract, DRMP performed alternative analysis,
permitting, final design and construction support to reduce severe
neighborhood flooding along Idlewild Avenue. The project also
included permitting, utility coordination and a Public Meeting.
The Lower Sweetwater Creek Watershed model (HCSWMM) was
used as a basis for this analysis to determine the hydraulic feasibility
of proposed improvements. Specifically, the County model was used
to check for increase in downstream stages by the introduction of
proposed solutions and for correction of flooding in the subject area.
DRMP updated the appropriate nodes, basins and drainage features
with survey data to adequately model the basins within the study area.
This became the “Revised Existing” model. The proposed design was analyzed and such items as existing drainage patterns,
downstream impacts, cost and maintenance were reviewed to determine feasibility. Alternative Analysis was performed to study
three alternative improvements considering several factors such as cost, constructability, permitting, utilities and Level of Service.
The master plan recommendation (LSWC-8) recommended alternative would involve numerous utility conflicts and roadway
cost. Therefore, DRMP developed a diversion alternative down Hubert Avenue to lower the cost of the project.
Pre-construction Flooding
Collier County RPS 17-7213 Section 3-16
The work included the construction of a 42-inch storm pipe along the west side Hubert Avenue from Idlewild Avenue to the
Henry Street Canal. The new pipe serves as a secondary outfall pipe to increase conveyance capacity. Excavation between the
two existing ponds was provided to increase water quality while the control elevation in the pond was lowered to provide for
additional storage. A “smart box” was constructed to allow lower flows to continue the flow into the existing outfall to provide
increased residence time. The weir elevation was set to maintain the water quality volume accounting for treatment for 1” over
the contributing basins, as reflected in the original SWFWMD permit. In larger events, the secondary outfall provides relief, and
allows excess flows to be conveyed to the southern portion of the pond. The project will resolve flooding in the project area for
the 25yr/24hr rainfall event.
Following construction, in June of 2016, Tropical Storm Colin produced 5.3-inches of rain on the project and experienced no
street or residential flooding! The project has greatly improved the safety and quality of life for the residents of Hillsborough
County. This project was awarded APWA Environmental Project of the Year in 2016!
US 41 (SR 45) 3R Improvements, FDOT District Seven, Hernando County, Florida:
DRMP provided design of 3R improvements of approximately two miles
on SR 45 (US 41) from North of Lamar Avenue (Old Hospital) to Twingate
Avenue. The $3M project located in Hernando County, Florida was
identified as an area in need for improvement for bicyclists and pedestrians.
The area was frequented by active residents which posed a safety concern
on the roadway.
DRMP provided professional services for FDOT District Seven that
included operational/safety improvements at various urban intersections,
the addition of new sidewalk, replacement of substandard sidewalk/ADA
upgrades for sidewalk and bus stops. The project included 2-miles of new
sidewalk and bike lane signage and markings. This project also included
public involvement with City of Brooksville and Hernando County to
coordinate the addition of bike lanes and sidewalks on both sides of the road, throughout the project limits. The project involved
CSX coordination to perform ADA and bridge railing retrofit upgrades to a bridge over the CSX right-of-way. DRMP was also
tasked with upgrading curb ramps and implementing other ADA improvements as feasible within project area. DRMP delineated
the existing wetlands along the corridor and designed sidewalks to avoid the wetlands. A SWFWMD permit exemption was
obtained for this project.
The design benefited the community by providing a safe means of
cooperative transportation for motorists, cyclists, runners and
walkers. The project included sufficient signage for shared road
awareness. Another improvement from this design allowed for a
frequented bridge to be accessible in accordance with the Americans
with Disabilities Act. This project has assisted the City of Brooksville
in becoming a recreational destination for bicyclists by providing
cyclists with access to the downtown core from the Good Neighbor
Trail.

SR 686 RRR Project, FDOT District Seven, Pinellas County, Florida
DRMP provided design consulting services for the SR 686/East Bay Drive RRR project in the City of Largo, Florida. Project
limits were for a 1-mile section of East Bay Drive from Missouri Avenue to east of Highland Avenue. This RRR project extended
the life of the existing pavement and addressed multimodal issues and safety upgrades. The roadway is a 4- and 6-lane divided
urban curb and gutter arterial with raised medians and sidewalks on the outside. The proposed typical sections accommodated
bicycle traffic with striping redesign to implement sharrows and dedicated 4-foot bicycle lanes within the existing roadway. This
project included pavement design, RRR Safety Report, variations and exceptions, ADA upgrades on sidewalks and bus stops,
drainage analysis, signing and pavement markings, signal retiming, surveying and subsurface utility engineering.
The City of Largo has adopted a Multi-modal initiative
therefore sharrows and dedicated bicycle lanes were
provided as part of this project. The existing pavement
was experiencing fatigue cracking primarily from the top
down with some apparent cracking associated leaking
storm pipes. A pavement evaluation report was developed
and an average 3-inch milling depth was performed. The
through lanes were resurfaced with 1.5-inches of superpave
structural course and 1.5-inches of friction course. A
Multi-Purpose Survey Vehicle (MPSV) was used for the
pavement slope data. Cross slope correction was
accomplished using overbuild.
In addition to the multimodal design improvements, DRMP provided drainage design services to rehabilitate approximately 2,000-
LF of storm pipe ranging from 18-inches to 54-inches in diameter. The roadway was experiencing severe pot holes and curb
settlement due to the leaking storm pipes. In order to limit disruption to the traveling public on this busy urban corridor, DRMP
recommended trenchless technology to avoid open cutting of the roadway. Cured in Place liners were used for the smaller diameter
pipes. However, liners were too large to enter the 54-inch pipe so a centrifugally cast cementitious (CentriPipe) spray coating was
used for the larger diameter pipes. Hydraulic calculations were generated to show no adverse impacts on the hydraulic grade line
due to a slightly reduced diameter pipe. In the end, a structurally sufficient reborn pipe was created with a 50-year service life
with no interruption to mainline traffic.

Section 4 – Project Approach, Willingness to Meet Time and Budget Requirements
Goodland Drive provides the lone land access to the Town of Goodland. The roadway weaves through a native mangrove forest
and in a way, acts as a portal into the pace and lifestyle of Goodland. Town residents often decorate the mangroves along the
roadway for holidays; eggs for Easter and shiny ornaments for Christmas. Winter in Goodland brings a flood of seasonal residents
and tourists and on the weekends vehicles line the roads to take part in the famous idle hour at Stan’s. Anytime of the year the
sidewalk along the western ROW has pedestrian and cyclist activity. A lifeline to the community, Goodland Drive must be
designed to alleviate flooding, allow safe access during high tides and heavy rains, and to allow tidal flow to the mangrove forest
on the west side of the roadway. The Goodland Drive Rehabilitation project presents unique challenges including environmental
permitting and potential environmental impacts; roadway design and maintenance of traffic during construction; construction
scheduling; cost of construction; design fee; and public relations (discussed in Section 5). How these challenges are overcome
will drive the Goodland Drive Rehabilitation project costs and schedule.
Environmental Permitting & Impacts
The GradyMinor team has the combined experience and expertise to execute all ecological, permitting, and mitigation services
outlined in the solicitation. Through the leadership of Charles Smith, PWS, permitting specialist, our team has over 35 years of
combined experience in providing environmental services throughout Florida. We understand the importance of communication
between all parties, including regulatory agencies to ensure there is a mutual understanding of the project details and the
environmental concerns such that all concerns can be addressed while accomplishing the goals of the project. Our Team has
reviewed all associated documents, literature, and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) data.
It is understood that Goodland Drive floods during storm and tidal events, restricting access of residents to and from the
community of Goodland. In addition, Goodland Drive limits the tidal flow from Goodland Bay to the mangrove forest west of
Goodland Drive, which is part of the Fruit Farm Creek Mangrove Restoration Project (FFCMP). The hydraulic/ecological
evaluations previously completed for FFCMP indicates that the reduced tidal flows and extended hydroperiods west of Goodland
Drive has moderately to severely stressed the mangrove forest. As part of the Project, ten 42-inch culvert pipes are proposed to
improve tidal flow in the mangrove forest; therefore, the local ecology will be improved.
It is our intent to minimize impacts to the mangroves and improve natural tidal flow to the maximum feasible extents. However,
the proposed improvements are anticipated to have unavoidable impacts to the mangrove forest within the Goodland Drive ROW;
therefore, it will require environmental resource permit from the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) and a
Section 404 Permit from United States Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE).
Through communications and meetings with the SFWMD and the ACOE, we will place emphasis on the environmental benefits
that will result from this project, first and foremost being the improved tidal flow to the Fruit Farm Creek Mangrove forest. This
stressed mangrove forest’s health will be improved following this Project which will result in improvements to the surrounding
bays and estuaries by providing natural nutrient removal and habitat and shelter for native species. We feel confident that impacts
to the mangroves, within the ROW of Goodland Drive to facilitate the proposed improvements, will be allowed by permitting
agencies as the overall benefits to the community and environment greatly outweigh the temporary impacts to the mangrove
forest. Additionally, mitigation credits may be possible for the enhanced hydraulic connection and will help offset any potential
wetland impacts caused by the roadway improvements. However, if permitting agencies require mitigation to offset impacts
resulting from the proposed improvements, our team will work closely with Collier County to determine the best mitigation
option, such as on-site mitigation, creation or restoration on public lands, preparing permittee-responsible mitigation, in-lieu fee
for offsite regional mitigation, or some combination of the aforementioned options. Goodland Bay and the mangrove forest
immediate adjacent to Goodland Drive, are both listed as an Outstanding Florida Water (OFW), which may require additional
coordination with the Florida Department Environmental Protection (FDEP). According to FDEP Government Lands database,
Goodland Drive corridor has an existing Sovereign Submerged Land (SSL) TIITF easement; therefore, the proposed
improvements are not anticipated to require additional coordination for a SSL TIITF easement.
Goodland Bay and the adjacent mangroves provide habitat for a multitude of protected species. Based on the review available
GIS databases and literature, there are several state- and federally-protected species that are likely to occur within and adjacent to
Collier County RPS 17-7213 Section 4-2
project corridor. The Project is located within United States Fish Wildlife Service (USFWS) consultation areas and critical
habitats for West Indian manatee and American crocodile. The proposed project is also located within National Marine Fisheries
(NMFS) critical habitat for smalltooth sawfish and contains sea turtle foraging habitat. In addition, the proposed project is located
approximately 2.25 miles from the USFWS Florida bonneted bat focal area and 0.35 mile from the USFWS Florida bonneted bat
consultation area. Impacts to these species are not anticipated as a result of the construction of the project; however, our team will
coordinate early with the USFWS, NMFS and Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) to obtained permit
clearances for these species. In order to protect these species where they occur during construction, it is anticipated that the
proposed project will be required to follow the NMFS’s Sea Turtle and Smalltooth Sawfish Construction Conditions and the
USFWS Standard Manatee Conditions for In-water Work.
Roadway Design & Maintenance of Traffic
The roadway design required to raise Goodland Drive to alleviate
flooding would be a straightforward design if our design team
didn’t have to take into account impacting the existing mangroves
within the ROW (as discussed above under Environmental
Permitting and Impacts) and the constructability of the
improvements while maintaining access. As the roadway is raised,
the major challenge is tying back into the existing ground.
Naturally the higher the road is raised, the further away from the
edge of travel will be the touchdown point. Our team plans on
coordinating with the County early to discuss the benefits for the
two different typical sections shown to the right.
Goodland Drive is characterized as a rural local collector roadway
with a posted speed at 30 mph. The project is approximately 0.7
miles long. Maintenance of Traffic / Constructability will be one
of the largest challenges on this project. Minor roadway work,
resurfacing, repairs, sidewalks, and striping can all be done on two-
lane facilities using single lane road closures during construction.
However with Goodland Drive, the road will have to be
reconstructed at a higher elevations. Raising a 2-lane road by 3 feet
within the confines of the mangroves within the ROW, as referenced in previous studies for the corridor, would require both lanes
coming up at the same time, which will not be possible while keeping the roadway open to traffic. Constructing Goodland Drive
will have to be done segmentally and include a plan for temporary conditions that will allow vehicular access to Goodland at all
times. Utilizing the existing sidewalk with the addition of a temporary driving surface to widen the sidewalk, as a means to shift
traffic around the segment that is under construction at that time, may be the best alternative. The temporary lane will likely only
be wide enough for one vehicle so a flagger will be required to control traffic meandering around the construction area. The
special conditions detailed in FDOT Index 603 Sheet 2 of 3 must be followed while incorporating other 600 indices to design a
safe maintenance of traffic plan for this project. Creating a temporary diversion would also be a viable solution but would likely
create additional impacts to the mangroves currently within the ROW. The maintenance of traffic plan will need to be discussed
in detail with the County during the design.
The construction of a raised Goodland Drive will address the condition of the pavement. A pavement selection report will be
prepared in accordance with the new FDOT Florida Design Manual (FDM) which is replacing the Plans Preparation Manuals
(PPM) in 2018. Geotechnical information will be collected to determine design high water, seasonal high water, and the resilient
modulus. The FDOT requires a base clearance of 3-ft separation from design high water to the pavement base. In the case of
Goodland Drive where we are trying to balance the height the road is raised, avoiding mangroves, and reducing gravity wall costs,
it is very likely that blackbase will be recommend to be used for the road construction.
Collier County RPS 17-7213 Section 4-3
Construction Scheduling
The Town of Goodland residents and business owners will not tolerate the construction of the Goodland Drive Rehabilitation
project if it affects access to/from Goodland during their tourist and stone crab season (October 15th to May 15th). If construction
affecting Goodland Drive takes place during stone crab season, Commissioner Fiala’s phone will be ringing with angry
constituents. Leaving only roughly 6 months for construction, during the rainy season, completing the improvements along
Goodland Drive will be a challenge and will require advanced planning to ensure construction is ready to begin on the agreed
upon first day after tourist season. Night work may need to be considered to facilitate construction around the tides. Provided at
the end of this section is our proposed schedule, which details the milestones necessary to begin construction in April.
Cost of Construction
The design to raise Goodland Drive is not a complicated design if budget is not a concern. However like all projects, budget must
be considered. The GradyMinor team will coordinate with the County to determine the best course of action to achieve the goal
of raising the roadway profile in an efficient and environmentally sensitive manner. Due to the limited work area, temporary walls
and phased construction may be required. Additionally, permanent retaining walls may be necessary along the roadway as the
profile is raised to avoid impacts to the adjacent areas. Several options for permanent walls include cast-in-place cantilever
concrete walls, driven sheet piles walls, and segmental block walls. The soils in the area will determine the most suitable design
for the walls. Maintaining the tidal flow and the health of the mangroves in the area is of the utmost importance, therefore box
culverts or bridge elements beneath the roadway may be the best option. The use of precast elements for these structures would
be recommended as a method to decrease the time of construction for the project. DRMP’s recent similar experience includes
the Old Kings Road Extension in Flagler county, which included box culvert extensions as well as specially designed cast-in-
place retaining walls to accommodate proposed drainage structures. DRMP also recently completed the design of drainage and
roadway improvements for the Fred Gannon Rocky Bayou State Park for the DEP. The structural component of this project
involved the design of geosynthetic reinforced earth and segmental block retaining walls to raise the profile of the roadway with
minimal impacts to the environmentally sensitive surroundings.
Our Team understands the urgency to elevate the road and provide a safer and more accessable roadway for the community. We
recognize both the FDOT criteria and Collier County endorsement of raising the road by as much as 3-feet. However, if cost
becomes an issue, there may be opportunities for substantial cost savings if the County and community are agreeable to
compromises, while improving the roadway. One such option is Full Depth Reclamation (FDR), which is a method of pavement
rehabilitation that is gaining in popularity with local agencies and the FDOT. The process in short grinds up the existing road and
relays a new layer of pavement in place of the existing road. Our team is familiar with an approach that uses a modified FDR
technology in conjunction with traditional new pavement construction. If chosen, this oprtion would use the FDR process to grind
and prepare the existing road but stop before the actual paving portion. The existing road wouldbecome the new roads proposed
road bed, thereby eliminating any material transfer to the project site and avoiding the earthwork costs. Blackbase would then be
placed at a depth of 10”. A 2-inch riding surface would be added to finish the new road pavement section. For Goodland Drive,
this would result in an estimated construction cost very close to $1 million dollars. This could save million of dollars on the project
cost by elevating the road by 1-foot in lieu of the estimated 3-feet.
Design Fee & Change Orders
The GradyMinor team’s institutional knowledge of Goodland Drive and the relationships we already have with the community
will result in efficiencies that will translate to less hours billed and ultimately a savings Collier County. The topographical survey
was completed by GradyMinor as part of our design recently completed for the replacement of the water main along Goodland
Drive and will we will only need minimal field work to update the survey. This will directly translate to ~$15,000 saved.
GradyMinor will meet the County’s budget on the Goodland Drive Rehabilitation Project, our past performance on projects for
Collier County is proof that we always strive to meet our client’s budgets. We are a midsized local firm and are capable of very
quickly adapting to changes, without affecting the contract cost. The responsiveness and efficiency of our Team will not be
matched, especially by large national or international firms. Where we believe GradyMinor stands apart from the crowd because
is how we handle challenges. We are a nimble firm, with a large number of experienced local engineers that are well known for
rolling their sleeves up and solving challenges quickly and adapting to challenges without affecting project schedules or budget.
GradyMinor is pleased to state that we have not received a non-owner initiated change order on a public project.

Section 5 – Location
The Goodland Drive Rehabilitation Project will be managed from GradyMinor’s corporate headquarters, located at 3800 Via Del
Rey, Bonita Springs, FL 34134 and is where all of GradyMinor’s work will be based. We are approximately 30 miles from the
Town of Goodland and 15 miles from the County’s transportation offices. Throughout the duration of the Goodland Drive
Rehabilitation Project, all day-to-day operation, information collection and distribution, and communications between the County
and GradyMinor team members will be managed by Daniel Flynn, P.E. from GradyMinor’s local office, just 15 miles from the
County’s offices. Daniel will be the County’s point of contact and the only person the County will need to contact to ascertain
information about the Goodland Drive Rehabilitation Project. Daniel prides himself on customer service and his recent managing
of the City of Naples’ 3rd Avenue South Improvement project is proof of his dedication to serving clients every needs. We invite
Collier County to reach out to the City of Naples’s Assistant City Manager Roger Reinke (239.213.1030 -
rreinke@naplesgov.com) to inquire about Daniel’s dedication, technical expertise, and ability to manage a complex and
controversial project.
All of GradyMinor’s team members have offices within Lee and Collier Counties, and as a result representatives from every sub-
consultant will be available with little notice to meet with the Collier County, permitting agencies, or residents/key stakeholders
within the Goodland community.

Public Relations & Location
The residents and businesses in the Town of Goodland take great pride in their community and they want to be a part of the
projects that affect their community. Building a relationship with the community early in the project and communicating clearly
throughout the project is of utmost importance. By including the residents and businesses in the early phases of the project and
addressing their concerns, we can make them part of team. GradyMinor’s proximity to the Town of Goodland will be instrumental
in the public relations for this Project. We will work tirelessly to inform the community about the projects key milestone and
disruptive activities including utility service interruptions, traffic pattern changes, and solid waste/recycling service changes will
help to minimize apprehensions. GradyMinor believes that being upfront with the community and listening to their concerns will
help to prepare them for future disruptions and inconveniences. GradyMinor’s communication with key stakeholders will include
an emphasis on the reasons why this project is necessary right now, timelines for completion, as well as the overall benefits to the
greater community and environment so that we can build support.
Our team’s location allows us to be available to meet with Collier County and the public
with very little notice. We are flexible and only a short drive away. We can be in Goodland
quickly anytime any day to meet with the County or with a concerned resident or business
owner. We have a proven track record of being flexible and being willing to meet and do
whatever it takes to get the job done. The picture on the right is an example of our proposed
project manager Daniel Flynn’s flexibility and creativity to meet and communicate with a
concerned resident. The concerned resident in this case was a seasonal resident that was up
north and wanted to have the proposed improvements in front of his property explained to
him “today”. Daniel quickly went to the project site, flagged the improvements and utilized
FaceTime to communicate the proposed improvements with the property owner alongside
the property owner’s good friend, a fulltime resident. Following the meeting, both men were
pleased and in the end, an easement was provided by the property owner for the proposed
improvements.

WORKLOADS OF THE FIRM
Collier County RPS 17-7213 Section 6-1
Section 6 – Recent, Current, and Projected Workloads of the Firm
Our Company and team is committed to allocating the necessary manpower and resources to complete the Goodland Drive
Rehabilitation Project within the established time schedule. The current and anticipated workloads will not affect our ability
to serve Collier County. The majority of our current designs will be accomplished by early next year which will time nicely
with the Goodland Drive Rehabilitation Project. Provided on the following page is a resource allocation chart for key team
members depicting current and anticipated workloads and their estimated availability.
To provide an understanding of how this chart was created, below is how we determined Daniel Flynn’s (our proposed
project manager) resource allocation.
Daniel’s main existing project is the 8th Street Improvement project for the City of Naples. Daniel is the project manager
for this 1-mile long complete street improvement project, which is in the conceptual design stage. The City of Naples has
scheduled and budgeted for this project to move slowly with a long period of community input, followed by construction
design beginning in spring 2018, and construction beginning in spring 2019. Daniel’s day-to-day involvement on the 8th
Street project will be minimal due to the lengthy schedule and as a result we have estimated that through 2018 the 8th Street
Improvement project will utilize 15% of Daniel’s time. Additionally, Daniel is assisting on a few small transportation/RRR
projects, mainly providing assistance with horizontal and vertical geometry design of roadway segments being reconstructed
due to utility improvements and on permitting associated with the Big Corkscrew Island Regional Park, which we expect
to utilize 15% Daniel’s time. This results is a committed workload of 30% for Daniel. We anticipate receiving a contract
as a sub consultant for a multipurpose pathway in Cape Coral, which Daniel will be providing drainage design assistance.
We anticipate this project utilizing 10% of Daniel’s time. Daniels committed and anticipated workload totals 50%, resulting
in Daniel’s expected availability equaling 50%.
Our team is very excited about the Goodland Drive Rehabilitation project and have been following the project for many
years. We look forward to the opportunity to be involved with a project that will ultimately improve the Goodland
community and the environment in and around the Town of Goodland. As previously stated our team is committed to
allocating the necessary manpower and resources to complete the Goodland Drive Rehabilitation project on time and within
budget. The current and anticipated workloads will not affect our ability to serve Collier County.
