REPORT:	Commissioner Edmonson noted she was advised by the Aviation Department that the Miscellaneous Construction Contract Award No. MCC-7-05 would be presented to the County Commission at its November 15, 2011 meeting. She requested that the Contract be extended through January 30, 2012 due to additional time needed to implement this program once it was awarded.

It was moved by Commissioner Edmonson that the foregoing proposed resolution be adopted as amended to extend the Miscellaneous Construction Contract No. MCC-7-05 through January 30, 2012. This motion was seconded by Commissioner Jordan, and upon being put to a vote, passed by a vote of 12-0, (Commissioner Suarez was absent). The amended version was assigned Resolution No. R-932-11.

TITLE
RESOLUTION DIRECTING THE COUNTY MAYOR TO NEGOTIATE CHANGE ORDER NO. 4 TO MISCELLANEOUS CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT NO. MCC7-05 WITH MIKE GOMEZ CONSTRUCTION CONSULTING, INC., EXTENDING THE CONTRACT TIME THROUGH JANUARY 30, 2012; AUTHORIZING THE COUNTY MAYOR OR MAYOR�S DESIGNEE TO EXECUTE SUCH CHANGE ORDER AND TO EXERCISE DELEGATED AUTHORITY DESCRIBED THEREIN, AND WAIVING FORMAL BID PROCEDURES AND PROVISIONS PURSUANT TO SECTION 2-8.1 MIAMIDADE COUNTY CODE AND SECTION 5.03(D) OF THE MIAMI-DADE HOME RULE CHARTER, AND SECTION 255.20 FLORIDA STATUTES

BODY

WHEREAS, the current economic downturn has severely impacted small construction contractors in Miami-Dade County, along with other businesses; and
WHEREAS, the Miscellaneous Construction Contract No. MCC-7 (the MCC) has proven to be an efficient and effective way of accomplishing needed repairs and construction at Miami International Airport while also maximizing small business participation in such repairs or construction; and
WHEREAS, the ability to issue new work orders under the MCC expired on September 30, 2011, although the contractor continues to perform work on previously issued work orders; and
WHEREAS, a replacement contract will not be awarded until later this year; and
WHEREAS, the expiration of the MCC and the absence of such a contract would negatively impact both the Airport and the small business community; and
WHEREAS, the contractor is currently on site at Miami International Airport, is performing work, is appropriately licensed, and is uniquely qualified to perform work until a successor contract is let and awarded; and
WHEREAS, work is issued under the MCC on an as-needed basis, so in the event construction work under the MCC is not needed prior to end of the contract, that money will be returned to the County and used to fund the successor contract, MCC-8; and
WHEREAS, the County Mayor has recommended that a waiver of competitive bids to allow execution of this change order is in the best interests of Miami Dade County, such recommendation being attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, FLORIDA, that this Board hereby directs the County Mayor or the Mayor�s designee to negotiate Change Order No. 4 to Miscellaneous Construction Contract No. MCC-7-05 with Mike Gomez Construction Consulting, Inc., which Change Order shall increase the contract duration until no later than January 30, 2012, and which provides for a termination for convenience clause; and authorizes the County Mayor or Mayor�s designee to execute such change order without need for subsequent Board action; finds it to be in the best interest of the County to waive formal bid procedures pursuant to Section 2-8.1, Miami-Dade County and Section 5.03 (D)of the Miami-Dade Home Rule Charter, and Section 255.20 Florida Statutes, by a two-thirds (2/3) vote of members of the Board of County Commission.
