Work under this project will be located within sanitary sewer basins prioritized for infiltration and inflow mitigation and will include all labor, materials and equipment necessary to rehabilitate deteriorated gravity sanitary sewer mains and public laterals utilizing the trenchless CIPP lining method. Work also includes necessary ancillary activities of traffic control, bypass pumping/flow diversion, pipe cleaning, closed circuit television video inspection, excavation and installation of public clean-outs where required, and restoration of the right-of-way. This work will be performed within sanitary sewer basins that are prioritized based on high inflow and infiltration. This work is required by the Amended Consent Order, supports the Kriseman Infrastructure Plan and the Water Resources Department's updated Sanitary Sewer Asset Management Plan (SSAMP) completed in December 2019. Work is identified, scoped, and scheduled by the City on an ongoing basis, based on input from: - The Wet Weather Overflow Mitigation Program - Ongoing asset inspection and evaluation program - Work history from the City's work and asset management (WAM) system - Response to customer complaints

Work is prioritized based on assets with the highest risk of failure, of which capacity-limited areas of the collection system is also a consideration in the overall risk assessment and prioritization. Locations will be issued to the contractor on a work order basis, according to priorities within the priority areas as determined by the Water Resources and Engineering and Capital Improvements departments.

Trenchless CIPP lining is a cost-effective method of restoring the integrity of deteriorated sanitary sewer piping without the need for disruptive dewatering, sheeting and shoring, excavating and roadway replacement. The bid documents required bidders to provide prices for Group 1 (common ancillary work unit items) together with at least one of Group 2 (mainline CIPP lining unit items) and/or Group 3 (public lateral CIPP lining unit items). It allows the City to award the contract to multiple bidders in any combination of Group 1 combined with Group 2 and or Group 3, based on the best interest of the City. The bid documents

08/14/2020 2


diesel-fuel tanks, located together on an elevated concrete pad.

• A new electrical enclosure to house switchgear and other electrical equipment associated with generators and electrical distribution system, located adjacent to the generator pad. The electrical enclosure will be and air-conditioned one-story structure of concrete masonry unit (CMU) construction on an elevated concrete foundation, and will include structural, architectural, HVAC, and electrical / lighting elements as required.

• A plant-wide 12kV power distribution system including looped electrical cable in concrete duct bank routed around the plant and dual step-down transformers to supply utility and backup power to each electrical load center.

• Replacement of selected electrical cable and conduit from MCCs to electrical loads throughout the plant.

• Demolition of retired facilities and equipment, generally including two existing electrical MCC buildings, five existing diesel-fueled engine generators (with concrete pads and CMU enclosures), five diesel storage tanks (with concrete pads and CMU enclosures), and selected electrical equipment, wiring, and conduit.

• Minor patching and painting in existing building spaces to remain, which are impacted by equipment demolition.

The A/E will design the proposed facilities and develop design documents to support construction of the improvements by a CMAR selected by and under contract to the City. It is understood that the project be combined with the separate Distribution Pumping Station design (developed by Cardno) and constructed together under a single CMAR contract.

The specifications will be prepared utilizing A/E’s standard technical specifications, coordinated with City standard material requirements. The design will incorporate the City’s standard General Requirements specification section and Measurement and Payment section, as applicable, which will be customized for the requirements of the project based on input from the A/E and the City.

The drawings will be developed using A/E’s CAD standards but will incorporate City standard details as applicable.

In order to maximize the consistency of materials provided under this project and the Distribution Pumping Station project, some commonality of specifications is desired by the City. To that end, Black & Veatch will provide certain electrical specifications developed for the project to Cardno for their use and reference in developing specifications customized for their design but incorporating elements from Black & Veatch’s specifications, as applicable, related to materials of construction, quality, manufacturer, etc.

The design documents will incorporate startup and commissioning requirements and a recommended construction sequencing plan which outlines acceptable service disruptions during tie-ins.

The design will be developed in milestone steps per the following subtasks:

8.1 30% LEVEL DESIGN A. 30% Design Development – A/E will progress the design to a 30% level of completion.

TASK 10 ACOUSTICAL STUDY

10.1 ACOUSTICAL STUDY An acoustical study will be performed under this subtask, to include a sound level survey of the site. The study will include acoustical modeling and analysis of the proposed improvements in both the Electrical Distribution System Improvements project and the Distribution Pumping Station project in order to recommend sound mitigation measures that may be incorporated into the design.

A. Code Review - The acoustical study will include a detailed review of applicable noise laws, ordinances, regulations, and standards (federal, state, and local). Relevant GIS and parcel data will also be reviewed to confirm (e.g.) zoning/land use.

B. Site Visit and Sound Level Survey - An acoustical professional will visit the Project site and surrounding area to observe and measure the existing acoustical conditions. A short survey protocol document will be prepared for review with the Project team and the City in order to coordinate access to the Project site, and to review the survey schedule, general processes and procedures, and safety and security concerns. The survey will include continuous sound level monitors, that will be placed and recording data for a minimum duration of 24 hours, set up at two representative locations on the Project site or in the nearby residential community. The continuous sound level monitors will be unmanned, but will be inspected regularly during the survey period. The continuous sound level monitors will be locked and secured on NEWRF property or in public rights-of-way and will be monitored remotely via 4G wireless Internet connection. Monitors will not be placed on private property. During the sound level monitor inspection visits, noise sources will be observed, meteorological conditions will be observed and measured, and short-term sound levels will be measured as deemed necessary to supplement the continuous monitoring. Short-term sound levels will also be measured at additional locations as deemed necessary to fully characterize the existing acoustical conditions around the Project site. The survey will be completed in accordance with industry standards and local regulations using International Electrical Code (IEC) Class 1 or Class 2 instrumentation. A four-day trip for one acoustical professional is assumed, including travel. The measurement and monitoring data from the survey will be reviewed and reduced in order to facilitate additional analyses.

C. Acoustical Modeling, Analysis, and TM - The Project will be modeled, based on the 30% design, in accordance with ISO 9613 methodology. Acoustical modeling will address the Electrical Distribution System Improvements design as well as the Distribution Pumping Station Design (Cardno). The acoustical model will include input based on local terrain (via GIS / DTM data sources) and meteorological trends (via available online historical weather data). Modeling of Project equipment and structures will be based on drawings and equipment/process designs provided by the Project team. The results of the acoustical model and the sound level survey will be used to investigate mitigation measures for Project equipment as necessary to ensure the future operation of the Project will comply with local regulations. A technical memo (TM) will be prepared that provides details of the regulatory requirements, the results of the sound level survey, and the results of acoustical modeling and analysis. Details of acoustical requirements for equipment and conceptual mitigation measures (if any) will be provided in the TM, including estimated effectiveness based on modeling results.

The TM will be submitted in draft in pdf format. The City’s comments on the draft TM will be

08/14/2020 7


discussed during one of the monthly Progress Meetings covered in Task 6. Upon addressing City comments, the Final TM will be submitted in pdf format.

TASK 11 COORDINATION AND COLLABORATION

11.1 PROGRESS MEETINGS During the design phase of the project, A/E will attend and facilitate progress meetings with the City and other project team members when requested by the City. One such meeting will be the project kickoff meeting soon after NTP. Progress Meetings will be held at a location selected by the City and may be attended by representatives of the CMAR and other Consultants.

The Progress Meetings will be for the purpose of updating the City on progress and schedule, discussing project risks, discussing open questions and concerns, and collaborating on points of interface.

The A/E will prepare an agenda, meeting roster, and other materials as may be necessary to support the meeting. It is anticipated that on average, three A/E professionals will attend in person, and select discipline leads will attend remotely, as needed. Following the meeting, A/E will prepare and distribute meeting minutes.

It is anticipated that the design milestone review meetings covered in Task 8 will serve as three of the Progress Meetings. This Task includes budget for 9 additional Progress Meetings to be scheduled during the design phase of the project.

11.2 DISTRIBUTION PUMPING STATION PROJECT REVIEW & MEETINGS A. Milestone Deliverable Review - The A/E will perform a high-level coordination review of the 30%, 60%, and 90% design deliverables submitted to the City by Cardno for the Distribution Pumping Station project, for the purposes of identifying potential conflicts between the Cardno and A/E designs. A/E’s review will be for the purpose of coordinating with the Electrical Distribution System Improvements project as relates to points of interface and design consistency (equipment type, material wells of construction, etc.). The A/E will submit review comments to the City.

B. Review Meeting Attendance - The A/E will attend the 30%, 60%, and 90% milestone review meetings for the Distribution Pumping Station design project to discuss A/E’s review comments and collaborate on points of interface. One A/E professional will attend each meeting.

11.3 COLLABORATION WITH CMAR The City will engage the services of a CMAR to provide preconstruction services. The CMAR will be brought on board sometime around the 30% design. The CMAR will attend the design review meetings and perform review and comment on the developing design. A/E will work collaboratively with the selected CMAR and the City to develop the 100% design. Services to be provided by the A/E in coordination with the CMAR include the following:

• 30% Constructability and Value Engineering Review – A/E will consider and provide responses to review comments submitted by the CMAR. The review comments will be discussed at one of the Progress Meetings under Task 11.1.

• 60% Constructability and Value Engineering Review – A/E will consider and provide responses to review comments submitted by the CMAR. The review comments will be discussed at one of the Progress Meetings under Task 11.1.

08/14/2020 8


• 60% Cost Estimate Review – A/E will perform a high-level review of the Cost Estimate developed by the CMAR and submit written comments to the City’s Project Manager. 24 hours have been budgeted to review the 60% cost estimate.

• 90% Cost Estimate Review – A/E will perform a high-level review of the Cost Estimate developed by the CMAR and submit written comments to the City’s Project Manager. 24 hours have been budgeted to review the 90% cost estimate.

11.4 PUBLIC OUTREACH A/E will assist the City with public outreach activities, by providing brief, high-level PowerPoint slides for the City to use at public meetings. The content of the slides may include design components (e.g. drawing sheets) or Envision-related information. One representative from the A/E will attend up to 2 public meetings (usually held in the evening) at 30% design stage and up to 2 public meetings at the 90% design stage.

TASK 12 ENVISION PROCESS MANAGEMENT

The A/E will oversee the management and facilitation of the Envision certification process, a sustainability rating system that is administered by the Institute for Sustainable Infrastructure (ISI). The primary goals and assumptions for the Envision process specific to this project are to:

1. Adhere to the City’s Integrated Sustainability Action Plan including climate, sustainability, and resilience aspects.

2. Comply with requirements of the St. Petersburg City Code Chapter 2, Article 5, Division 5: Sustainability and Resiliency of City Facilities, as it relates to Envision.

3. Coordinate input and effort from the City, the CMAR, Cardno, subconsultants, and other parties associated with the Project that are not parties to the Agreement.

4. The A/E proposes to engage Rebecca Oliva (an Envision Sustainability Professional (ENV SP) employed by Black & Veatch) to manage the registration process and assist the design and construction teams in pursuing the Envision Gold level award certification (earn 40-49% of total applicable points). The ENV SP will interface with ISI and will take the lead of all Envision-related matters including coordination meetings, documentation collection and organization, and project registration with ISI to pursue Gold certification. The ENV SP Lead will oversee internal A/E team members including technical advisors, administrative support, junior staff and GIS experts and will lead coordination among external parties on the Project.

5. Envision administration services under this task are included in the project’s lump sum amount. Any additional Envision services the City would like the A/E to perform will be on a time & material basis due to the level of uncertainty regarding the level of work and division of responsibility for among the A/E, CMAR, City, Cardno, and other parties involved with the Project. An allowance is included to cover additional Envision services.

6. It is anticipated that the credits will be divided and assigned by the ENV SP to the various parties involved in the Envision process.

7. The budget for this task includes the A/E’s professional services for Envision process management. The budget for this task does not include costs for implementing specific recommendations or requirements by the Envision rating system (e.g. conduct baseline assessments, conduct a life-cycle economic evaluation, perform analyses, calculations), which are included in the Envision Allowance budget, billed on a time & material basis.

8. Envision typically requires involvement of City departments beyond the Water Resources Department, under which this Agreement falls. The City Project Manager is assumed to serve as that interface between other City departments that may be involved with the Envision process.

9. This Envision certification process will cover the A/E’s design, Cardno’s design and the CMAR’s construction phase.

10. The Project will pursue Pathway A: Design + Post Construction verification pathway. From the ISI’s published “Guide for Envision Verification for Applicants 2019”, the Pathway A flow chart is as follows:

12.1 DATA REVIEW AND ISI REGISTRATION A. Document Management - Throughout the project, the A/E will oversee and maintain the Document Management Information System (DMIS) using Bentley’s ProjectWise software. Early on in this task, the A/E will set up ProjectWise access for users external to the A/E so that all members of the Envision team are able to post data and credit documentation. This streamlines document sharing and streamlines the data organization and management process.

B. Data Review and Request - The A/E will perform a cursory review of what documents and websites are available for use in obtaining possible Envision points. The ENV SP will identify gaps and develop a data request list to the City that will be refined and resubmitted based on the Envision Kickoff Meeting discussion. The status of data transmittals will be tracked by the A/E until all available items are received. The expected information request to the City would be include items such as: maps, surveys, GIS data, operational data, record drawings, studies, planning documents, meeting minutes, submittals.

C. Self-Scoring - After reviewing the available data and in conjunction with the Envision Kickoff Meeting, the A/E will create the Envision online scoresheet and set up the self-assessment (an iterative tool used for this Envision process). This will allow the ENV SP to then oversee the project framework setup, establish a documentation tracker, and develop an adaptive scoresheet tracker that will be used during the 1st submission Subtask.

D. Project Registration with ISI - The A/E will register project through the ISI website, providing additional details about the project. The project will be registered for Pathway A: Design + Post Construction verification. The $2,000 for project registration with ISI would be paid directly by the City to ISI during this Subtask.

12.2 FIRST SUBMISSION A. Division of Responsibility - Based on the information available and the Levels of Achievement desired (a combination of which will be required to obtain a Gold level Award) the A/E will take a first cut of identifying which of the 64 credits to pursue and which to not pursue (e.g. too cumbersome, too costly, infeasible, applicable vs. not applicable, innovation credits to pursue). Furthermore, the A/E will preliminary identify the parties best suited to provide documentation for each credit. This will be known as the “Division of Responsibility (DOR)” document, which essentially will be a Envision credit list and show entities’ names next to each credit and the targeted Level of Achievement to be earned. The Envision team will be engaged for consensus on the DOR document, so that there is a clear understanding of which party or individual is

08/14/2020 10


responsible for providing information for each Envision credit.

B. Submittal Packet Compilation - Those parties identified by the DOR will be expected to deliver appropriate and sufficient documentation to the ENV SP for compilation into the submittal packet in a timely manner. The ENV SP will collect, track and compile documentation to support the 1st

submittal. The A/E will prepare the overall cover letter for the Project (identifying location, project boundary, parties involved, etc.), cover sheets for each credit, and submit the draft 1st submission packet to the City for review and comment. After the City has reviewed the 1st submittal packet, the ENV SP will assign tasks to Envision team members to modify their credit packages to the City’s satisfaction before they are finalized.

The ENV SP will prepare and submit the “Verification Submittal – Quality Assurance Checklist”. At approximately 95% design completion, the ENV SP will submit the final 1st submittal credit documentations through the ISI website. The estimated $26,000 3rd project verification fee (based on a project cost of greater than $25 million) would be paid by the City directly to ISI during this Subtask.

12.3 SECOND SUBMISSION AND AWARD The process for the 2nd submission will be similar to the 1st submission, but a reduced level of effort is anticipated due to many of the credit scores being “locked in” after 1st submission.

Under this task, the ENV SP will review the ISI Verifier’s feedback and make recommendations to the Envision team for which credits should be attempted for the second round. This is the Envision team’s opportunity to respond to ENV SV (Verifier) comments and provide additional documentation to either meet that original Level of Achievement or provide possible new information in support of a higher Level of Achievement. Gaps may need to be filled, information clarified, or new information presented during this round.

12.4 ENVISION MEETINGS A series of meetings, emails and phone calls will be required for Envision coordination among the various parties involved. This task covers communication between the A/E, City, CMAR, Cardno and subconsultants, specifically related to Envision.

Envision is a very collaborative process. The budget assumes 16, (2-hour each), in-person meetings with the ENV SP and up to 1 other A/E professional. Time to prepare agenda, content and meeting minutes are also included. One such meeting will be the Envision Kickoff Meeting, during which the ENV SP will provide an overview of Envision, framework, schedule, goals and expectations for data gathering from various parties, how Envision will be documented and organized for this project, establishing baselines, channels of communication, etc.

Exact meeting content, topics of discussion, dates, times and attendees will be determined between the ENV SP, A/E Project Manager and City’s Project Manager. For communication efforts beyond these assumptions, the Allowance may be used.

The use of the proceeds of the Note as heretofore described is authorized. The Project is also hereby authorized.

Because of the characteristics of the Note, prevailing market conditions, and additional savings to be realized from an expeditious sale of the Note, it is in the best interest of the Issuer to accept the offer of the Original Purchaser to purchase the Note at a private negotiated sale, which was based upon a competitive selection process. Prior to the issuance of the Note, the Issuer shall receive from the Original Purchaser a Purchaser’s Certificate, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B and a Disclosure Letter containing the information required by Section 218.385, Florida Statutes, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C.

(E) Original Denomination of the Note. The Note shall originally be issued in a single denomination equal to the original principal amount authorized hereunder.

Section 7: Execution and Delivery of Note. The Note shall be executed in the name of the Issuer by its Mayor and attested by its City Clerk, subject to the approval of the City Attorney as to form and correctness, and the corporate seal of the Issuer or a facsimile thereof shall be affixed thereto or reproduced thereon. In case any one or more of the officers of the Issuer who shall have signed or sealed the Note shall cease to be such officer or officers of the Issuer before the Note so signed and sealed shall have been actually sold and delivered, such Note may nevertheless be sold and delivered as if the persons who signed or sealed such Note had not ceased to hold such offices. The Note may be signed and sealed on behalf of the Issuer by such person who at the actual time of the execution of such Note shall hold the proper office, although at the date of such execution of the Note such person may not have held such office or may not have been so authorized.

Section 8: Registration and Exchange of the Note; Persons Treated as Owner. The Note is initially registered to the Original Purchaser. So long as the Note shall remain unpaid, the Issuer will keep books for the registration and transfer of the Note. The Note shall be transferable only upon such registration books. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Owner may in the future make transfers of the Note or sell participations to Permitted Lenders, without the consent of the Issuer; provided, however, such transfers or participations may only be made in whole, and not in part.

The Person in whose name the Note shall be registered shall be deemed and regarded as the absolute Owner thereof for all purposes, and payment of principal and interest on such Note shall be made only to or upon the written order of the Owner. All such payments shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon such Note to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.

Section 9: Payment of Principal and Interest; Limited Obligation. The Issuer promises that it will promptly pay the principal of and interest on the Note at the place, on the dates and in the manner provided therein according to the true intent and meaning hereof and thereof. The Note is secured by a pledge of and lien upon the Pledged Revenues in the manner and to the extent described herein. The Note shall not be or constitute a general obligation or indebtedness of the Issuer as a "bond" within the meaning of Article VII, Section 12 of the Constitution of Florida, but shall be payable solely from the Pledged Revenues in accordance

25027/047/01639367.DOCv56

with the terms hereof. No Owner shall ever have the right to compel the exercise of any ad valorem taxing power or the use of ad valorem tax revenues to pay such Note, or be entitled to payment of such Note from any funds of the Issuer except from the Pledged Revenues as described herein.

Section 10: Covenant to Budget and Appropriate. (A) Subject to the next paragraph, the Issuer covenants and agrees and has a positive and affirmative duty to appropriate in its annual budget, by amendment, if necessary, from Non-Ad Valorem Revenues, and to deposit into the Debt Service Fund hereinafter created, amounts sufficient to pay principal of and interest on the Note not being paid from other amounts as the same shall become due. Such covenant and agreement on the part of the Issuer to budget, appropriate and deposit such amounts of Non-Ad Valorem Revenues shall be cumulative to the extent not paid, and shall continue until such Non-Ad Valorem Revenues or other legally available funds in amounts sufficient to make all such required payments shall have been budgeted, appropriated, deposited and actually paid. No lien upon or pledge of such budgeted Non-Ad Valorem Revenues shall be in effect until such monies are budgeted, appropriated and deposited as provided herein. The Issuer further acknowledges and agrees that the obligations of the Issuer to include the amount of such amendments in each of its annual budgets and to pay such amounts from Non-Ad Valorem Revenues may be enforced in a court of competent jurisdiction in accordance with the remedies set forth herein.

Until such monies are budgeted, appropriated and deposited as provided herein, such covenant to budget and appropriate does not create any lien upon or pledge of such Non-Ad Valorem Revenues, nor does it preclude the Issuer from pledging in the future its Non-Ad Valorem Revenues (except as provided in Section 19 hereof), nor does it require the Issuer to levy and collect any particular Non-Ad Valorem Revenues, nor does it give the Owner a prior claim on the Non-Ad Valorem Revenues as opposed to claims of general creditors of the Issuer. Such covenant to budget and appropriate Non-Ad Valorem Revenues is subject in all respects to the prior payment of obligations secured by a lien on and pledge of specific components of the Non-Ad Valorem Revenues heretofore or hereafter entered into (including the payment of debt service on bonds and other debt instruments). Anything in this Resolution to the contrary notwithstanding, it is understood and agreed that all obligations of the Issuer hereunder shall be payable solely from the portion of Non-Ad Valorem Revenues budgeted, appropriated and deposited as provided for herein and nothing herein shall be deemed to pledge ad valorem tax power or ad valorem taxing revenues or to permit or constitute a mortgage or lien upon any assets owned by the Issuer and no holder of the Note nor any other person, may compel the levy of ad valorem taxes on real or personal property within the boundaries of the Issuer or the use or application of ad valorem tax revenues in order to satisfy any payment obligations hereunder or to maintain or continue any of the activities of the Issuer which generate user service charges, regulatory fees, or any other Non-Ad Valorem Revenues. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Resolution or the Note to the contrary, the Issuer shall never be obligated to maintain or continue any of the activities of the Issuer which generate user service charges, regulatory fees or any Non-Ad Valorem Revenues. The Issuer is prohibited by law from expending moneys not appropriated or in excess of its current budgeted revenues and surpluses. Until such monies are budgeted, appropriated and deposited as provided herein, neither this Resolution nor the obligations of the Issuer hereunder shall be construed as a pledge of or a lien on all or any legally

25027/047/01639367.DOCv57

available Non-Ad Valorem Revenues of the Issuer, but shall be payable solely as provided herein subject to the availability of Non-Ad Valorem Revenues after satisfaction of funding requirements for obligations having an express lien on or pledge of such revenues and funding requirements for essential governmental services of the Issuer.

There is hereby created and established the "City of St. Petersburg, Florida Non-Ad Valorem Revenue Note, Series 2020A Debt Service Fund," which fund shall be a trust fund held by the Chief Financial Officer, which shall be held solely for the benefit of the Owner. The Debt Service Fund shall be deemed to be held in trust for the purposes provided herein for such Debt Service Fund. The money in such Debt Service Fund shall be continuously secured in the same manner as state and municipal deposits are authorized to be secured by the laws of the State. The designation and establishment of the Debt Service Fund in and by this Resolution shall not be construed to require the establishment of a completely independent, self-balancing fund as such term is commonly defined and used in governmental accounting, but rather is intended solely to constitute an earmarking of certain revenues and assets of the Issuer for certain purposes and to establish certain priorities for application of such revenues and assets as herein provided. The Issuer may at any time and from time to time appoint one or more depositaries to hold, for the benefit of the Owner, the Debt Service Fund established hereby. Such depository or depositaries shall perform at the direction of the Issuer the duties of the Issuer in depositing, transferring and disbursing moneys to and from such Debt Service Fund as herein set forth, and all records of such depository in performing such duties shall be open at all reasonable times to inspection by the Issuer and its agent and employees. Any such depository shall be a bank or trust company duly authorized to exercise corporate trust powers and subject to examination by federal or state authority, of good standing, and having a combined capital, surplus and undivided profits aggregating not less than fifty million dollars ($50,000,000).

(B) Until applied in accordance with this Resolution, the Non-Ad Valorem Revenues of the Issuer on deposit in the Debt Service Fund and other amounts on deposit from time to time therein, plus any earnings thereon, are pledged to the repayment of the Note.

Section 11. Application of Proceeds of Note. The proceeds received from the sale of the Note shall be applied by the Issuer simultaneously with the delivery of the Note to the Original Purchaser, as follows:

(1) The Issuer shall pay all costs and expenses in connection with the preparation, issuance and sale of the Note; and

(2) Remaining proceeds shall be deposited in the Project Fund.

The Issuer covenants and agrees to establish a special fund to be designated "City of St. Petersburg, Florida Non-Ad Valorem Revenue Note, Series 2020A, Project Fund." The designation and establishment of the Project Fund by this Resolution shall not be construed to require the establishment of a completely independent, self-balancing fund as such term is commonly defined and used in governmental accounting, but rather is intended solely to constitute an earmarking of certain assets of the Issuer for certain purposes and to establish certain priorities for application of such assets as herein provided. Amounts on deposit from

25027/047/01639367.DOCv58

time to time in the Project Fund, plus any earnings thereon, are pledged to the repayment of the Note. Costs of the Project will be paid from the Project Fund.

Section 12: Tax Covenant. The Issuer covenants to the Owner provided for in this Resolution that the Issuer will not make any use of the proceeds of the Note at any time during the term of the Note which, if such use had been reasonably expected on the date the Note was issued, would have caused such Note to be "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of the Code. The Issuer will comply with the requirements of the Code and any valid and applicable rules and regulations promulgated thereunder necessary to ensure the exclusion of interest on the Note from the gross income of the holders thereof for purposes of federal income taxation.

Section 13: Amendment. This Resolution shall not be modified or amended in any respect subsequent to the issuance of the Note, except with the written consent of the Owner of a majority in outstanding principal amount of the Note.

Section 14: Limitation of Rights. With the exception of any rights herein expressly conferred, nothing expressed or mentioned in or to be implied from this Resolution or the Note is intended or shall be construed to give to any person other than the Issuer and the Owner any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or with respect to this Resolution or any covenants, conditions and provisions herein contained. This Resolution and all of the covenants, conditions and provisions hereof being intended to be and being for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Issuer and the Owner.

Section 15: Note Mutilated, Destroyed, Stolen or Lost. In case the Note shall become mutilated, or be destroyed, stolen or lost, the Issuer shall issue and deliver the new Note of like tenor as the Note so mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost, in exchange and in substitution for such mutilated Note, or in lieu of and in substitution for the Note destroyed, stolen or lost and upon the Owner furnishing the Issuer proof of ownership thereof and indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer and complying with such other reasonable regulations and conditions as the Issuer may prescribe and paying such expenses as the Issuer may incur. The Note so surrendered shall be canceled.

Section 16: Impairment of Contract. The Issuer covenants with the Owner that it will not, without the written consent of the Owner of a majority in outstanding principal amount of the Note, enact any ordinance or adopt any resolution which repeals, impairs or amends in any manner adverse to the Owner the rights granted to the Owner hereunder.

Section 17: Financial Information. Not later than 270 days following the close of each Fiscal Year, the Issuer shall provide the Owner with an electronic copy of its Comprehensive Annual Financial Report including annual financial statements for each Fiscal Year of the Issuer, prepared in accordance with applicable law and generally accepted accounting principles. All accounting terms not specifically defined or specified herein shall have the meanings attributed to such terms under generally accepted accounting principles as in effect from time to time, consistently applied.

25027/047/01639367.DOCv59

Section 18: Events of Default; Remedies of Owner. The following shall constitute "Events of Default": (i) if the Issuer fails to pay any payment of principal of or interest on the Note or other debt payable from any Non-Ad Valorem Revenues as the same becomes due and payable; (ii) if the Issuer defaults in the performance or observance of any covenant or agreement contained in this Resolution or the Note (other than set forth in (i) above) and fails to cure the same within thirty (30) days following notice thereof or from the date when the Issuer was required under Section 17 to provide the financial information required thereunder to the Owner; or (iii) filing of a petition by or against the Issuer relating to bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement or readjustment of debt of the Issuer or for any other relief relating to the Issuer under the United States Bankruptcy Code, as amended, or any other insolvency act or law now or hereafter existing, or the involuntary appointment of a receiver or trustee for the Issuer, and the continuance of any such event for 90 days undismissed or undischarged.

Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, the Owner may, in addition to any other remedies set forth in this Resolution or the Note, either at law or in equity, by suit, action, mandamus or other proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction, protect and enforce any and all rights under the laws of the State, or granted or contained in this Resolution, and may enforce and compel the performance of all duties required by this Resolution, or by any applicable statutes to be performed by the Issuer.

Section 19: Anti-Dilution Test. The Issuer may incur additional debt secured by all or a portion of the Non-Ad Valorem Revenues only if the total amount of Non-Ad Valorem Revenues for the prior Fiscal Year were at least 2.00 times the maximum annual debt service of all debt to be paid from Non-Ad Valorem Revenues (collectively, "Debt"), including any Debt payable from one or several specific revenue sources.

For purposes of calculating maximum annual debt service if the terms of the Debt are such that interest thereon for any future period of time is to be calculated at a rate which is not then susceptible of precise determination ("Variable Rate Debt"), interest on such Variable Rate Debt shall be computed as follows:

(a) if the principal amount of Variable Rate Debt (including any Variable Rate Debt proposed to be incurred) is less than or equal to 25% of the principal amount of all Debt (including the Debt proposed to be incurred), an interest rate equal to the higher of 12% per annum or The Bond Buyer 40 Index shall be assumed; or

(b) if the principal amount of Variable Rate Debt (including any Variable Rate Debt proposed to be incurred) is more than 25% of the principal amount of all Debt (including the Debt proposed to be incurred), the maximum rate which could be borne by such Variable Rate Debt shall be assumed.

For purposes of calculating maximum annual debt service, balloon indebtedness shall be assumed to amortize in up to 20 years (from the date of calculation) on a level debt service basis. In the event that the Issuer is required to fund a reserve fund, the funding of such reserve fund shall be included in the calculation of debt service. For purposes of this paragraph,

25027/047/01639367.DOCv510

“balloon indebtedness” includes indebtedness if 25% or more of the principal amount thereof comes due in any one year.

Section 20: Severability. If any one or more of the covenants, agreements or provisions of this Resolution should be held contrary to any express provision of law or contrary to the policy of express law, though not expressly prohibited or against public policy, or shall for any reason whatsoever be held invalid, then such covenants, agreements or provisions shall be null and void and shall be deemed separate from the remaining covenants, agreements or provisions of this Resolution or of the Note issued thereunder.

Section 21: Business Days. In any case where the due date of interest on or principal of Note is not a Business Day, then payment of such principal or interest need not be made on such date but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, provided that credit for payments made shall not be given until the payment is actually received by the Owner.

Section 22: Applicable Provisions of Law. This Resolution shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State.

Section 23: Rules of Interpretation. Unless expressly indicated otherwise, references to sections or articles are to be construed as references to sections or articles of this instrument as originally executed. Use of the words "herein," "hereby," "hereunder," "hereof," "hereinbefore," "hereinafter" and other equivalent words refer to this Resolution and not solely to the particular portion in which any such word is used.

Section 24: Captions. The captions and headings in this Resolution are for convenience only and in no way define, limit or describe the scope or intent of any provisions or sections of this Resolution.

Section 25: Members of the City Council Not Liable. No covenant, stipulation, obligation or agreement contained in this Resolution shall be deemed to be a covenant, stipulation, obligation or agreement of any present or future member, agent or employee of the Issuer in his or her individual capacity, and neither the members of the City Council nor any person executing the Note shall be liable personally on the Note or this Resolution or shall be subject to any personal liability or accountability by reason of the issuance or the execution of the Note or this Resolution.

Section 26: Authorizations. The members of the City Council, the Mayor, the City Administrator, the Chief Financial Officer, the City Attorney, the City Clerk and any other employees of the Issuer are hereby authorized to perform all acts and things required of them by this Resolution or desirable or consistent with the requirements hereof for the full, punctual and complete performance of all of the terms, covenants and agreements contained in the Note and this Resolution, and they are hereby authorized to execute and deliver all documents which shall be required by the Note Counsel or the Original Purchaser to effectuate the sale of the Note. All action taken to date by the members of the City Council, the Mayor, the City Administrator, the Chief Financial Officer, the City Attorney, the City Clerk and any other employees of the Issuer in furtherance of the issuance of the Note is hereby approved, confirmed and ratified.

In the event of a Determination of Taxability, “Interest Rate” means a per annum rate equal to the Taxable Rate, effective retroactively to the date on which the interest payable on this Note is includable for federal income tax purposes in the gross income of the Owner.

"Determination of Taxability" means the circumstance of interest paid or payable on this Note becoming includable for federal income tax purposes in the gross income of the Owner as a consequence of any act or omission of the Issuer or any written misrepresentation of a covenant of the Issuer in the Resolution.

(Non-Consent Agenda Item)


TO: The Honorable Ed Montanari, Chair, and Members of City Council

SUBJECT: A resolution authorizing the Mayor or his designee to accept a grant from the U.S.

Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”) in the amount of $2,902,139 for the

Emergency Solutions Grant Coronavirus (“ESG-CV-2”) funding to prevent, prepare for and respond

to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic which addresses the unique needs of low- and moderate-

income individuals; approving a substantial amendment to the FY 2019/20 Annual Action Plan

(“Amendment”) in the amount of $2,902,139 to add projects to fund with ESG-CV-2 and to expedite

the use of these resources to address the COVID-19 crisis; approving a supplemental appropriation in

the amount of $2,902,139 from the increase in the unappropriated balance of the Emergency Solutions

Grant Fund (1112), resulting from additional revenue to be received during FY 2019/20, to the

Housing and Community Development Department, Administration Division (082-1089); authorizing

the Mayor or his designee to submit the substantial amendment of the FY 2019/20 Annual Action Plan

to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”); to execute all documents

necessary to effectuate these transactions; and providing an effective date.

EXPLANATION: During March 2020, Congress and the President approved the Coronavirus Aid,

Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), Public Law 116-136, which has the purpose of

providing emergency assistance and health care response for individuals, families and businesses

affected by the 2020 coronavirus pandemic. Funding was approved to ensure that

individuals/households who have lost their jobs, had to close their businesses, or who could not pay

their rents/mortgages were provided resources to assist them while waiting for the pandemic to

subside.

The CARES Act made available an additional $4 billion in Emergency Solutions Grant Coronavirus

(“ESG-CV”) funds to supplement the FY 2020 ESG funding provided under the Further Consolidated

Appropriations Act, 2020 (Public Law 116-94) to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban

Development (“HUD”) in which HUD immediately allocated $1 billion to entitlement recipients

based on the FY 2020 ESG formula. On April 2, 2020, the City of St. Petersburg (“City”) was

awarded $539,562 in ESG-CV-1 grant funding and on May 21, 2020 accepted and appropriated this

grant by Resolution #2020-197.

On June 9, 2020, HUD advised the City that an additional $2.96 billion in funding for ESG-CV grants

was being allocated by a separate formula developed by the Secretary of HUD. The variables used

in this calculation were: 1) total homeless population, 2) unsheltered homeless population, 3) total

very-low income renters, and 4) very-low income renters that are overcrowded or without a kitchen

or plumbing. Based on this formula, the City of St. Petersburg (“City”) was awarded $2,902,139 in

ESG-CV-2 grant funding.

In order to accelerate the ability to assist those most in need, a substantial amendment to the FY

2019/20 Annual Action Plan (“Amendment”), which was originally approved under Resolution

Number 2019-393 dated August 1, 2019, is needed to add projects for the ESG-CV-2 funding totaling

$2,902,139.

of 3

A Notice of Funding Availability (“NOFA”) was placed in the Tampa Bay Times on July 8, 2020

that described the activities for the grant funding totaling $2,902,139 as follows:

• $104,499 for City administrative costs

• $1,185,714 for rental/utility assistance

• $1,611,926 for to prevent, prepare for and respond to COVID-19 crisis

Proposals were requested from not-for-profit agencies for allowable activities to address the funding

totaling $1,611,926 with the deadline for submission occurring on July 31, 2020. Five applications

were received and have been reviewed for eligibility and responding to the impact of the COVID-19

crisis.

Administration has determined that all requests meet the need for funding from the $1,611,926

available to prevent, prepare for and respond to COVID-19 and is recommending funding to the

following:

• Community Action Stops Abuse (CASA) – $25,627 – increase in food/consumable supplies,

childcare and security;

• Catholic Charities – $250,000 – rapidly re-house the homeless and housing stability case

management;

• Directions for Living – $600,000 – rapidly re-house the homeless and housing stability case

management; and

• St. Vincent dePaul – $257,416 – provide temporarily hotel/motel vouchers where shelter beds

are not available prioritizing persons who are at greater risk of COVID-19 including persons

60 years of age and older with underlying health conditions and

• St Vincent dePaul – $478,883 – rapidly re-house the homeless and housing stability case

management.

From the initial $1,185,714 shown as available funding in the NOFA for rental/utility assistance,

Administration is supporting that $1,000,000 be utilized for direct rental/utility assistance and $185,714

for program delivery fees to be awarded to Boley Centers and Catholic Charities as ongoing funding to

continue to provide assistance on behalf of the City.

A public notice was published on August 26, 2020, in the Tampa Bay Times to notify the public of the

proposed Amendment and of the public hearing to be held on September 3, 2020, which complies with

the revised Citizen Participation Plan requirements of the Consolidated Plan.

Administration is requesting a supplemental appropriation of $2,902,139 in ESG-CV-2 funding from

the increase in the unappropriated balance of the Emergency Solutions Grant Fund (1112) resulting

from the grant to fund the programs.

MEMORANDUM City of St. Petersburg

TO: Honorable Ed Montanari, Chair and Members of City Council

FROM: Rick Kriseman, Mayor


RE: Utility Rates for FY2021 (Public Hearing)

_________________________________________________________________________________

Throughout FY20, the City has continued to address the unanticipated needs of the global pandemic Covid-

19 with the dedication and prioritization of residents and customers during all business making decisions. It is through this lens, that various scenarios have been evaluated and reevaluated for the FY21 Utility Rate

Study with the assurance that operational and capital requirements continue to be met and the financial

impact to customers are also being considered. Therefore, while the proposal today includes rate increases,

these increases are lower than what was originally anticipated at the beginning of FY20. Because of the

current and unknown future state of the economy, I believe this proposal will provide for less of a burden on our customers, while also ensuring that our Utility Programs are supported through a continued healthy

forecast in the future to come. In addition, today’s presentation includes a 40/60 cash to debt funding

proposal for the Water Resources Rate Program. This adjustment is a change from the 50/50 cash to debt

funding plan adopted during the 2018 Rate Study. This split will still allow for significant interest expense

savings across the forecasted CIP Bond Program but will provide for less of a burden to be placed on our

customers within our current economic condition.

Today’s rate proposal continues to support future capital project needs in each of the enterprise operations.

Sanitation anticipates increased capital needs for replacement of an aging fleet and facilities. In addition,

the proposal continues to move Sanitation forward on a normal vehicle replacement cycle once the aged

fleet is fully replaced. The Water Resources Capital Improvement Plan also continues to include significant capital enhancements to the systems’ assets including projects associated with the Consent Order executed

on July 26, 2017. Lastly, the Stormwater Utility is projecting capital project needs coming out of the in-

progress Stormwater Master Plan.

The attached memo provides detailed information for the proposed rates in each of the enterprise operations. A 2.25% increase is proposed for water, a 7.25% increase is proposed for wastewater, and no increase (zero

percent) is proposed for reclaimed water. In addition, a 10.07% increase is proposed for stormwater and a

3.00% increase is proposed for Sanitation. This report was reviewed by the Budget, Finance & Taxation

Committee on June 11, 2020, as well as at the First Reading on August 20, 2020. Today, we recommend

final adoption of utility rates to be effective October 1, 2020. There are three separate Ordinances requiring

action.

With the emergence of the Covid-19 Global Pandemic, administration has reviewed various scenarios that will continue to balance the capital and operational needs of each utility across a ten-year forecast, all while taking into consideration the impact that increased rates might have on individual utility customers. Therefore, all three utility programs are recommending proposed increases that are lower than anticipated from last year’s study for FY21. Last year at this time, it was anticipated for FY21 that water service would increase by 3.50%, wastewater service by 8.50%, and reclaimed water service by 6.55%. As noted in Table 1, the proposed rate adjustments include increase of 2.25% for water; 7.25% for wastewater; and 0.00% for reclaimed water. In addition, sanitation services were anticipated to increase by 5.25% and stormwater services were anticipated to increase by 15.11%. Proposed FY21 rate adjustments include a 3% increase for Sanitation and a 10.07% increase for Stormwater. Proposed FY21 rate adjustments also include a decrease of 1.59% for wholesale water rates, an increase of 11.84% for wholesale wastewater rates, and an average annual increase of 1.23% for wholesale wastewater rates charged to the City of St. Pete Beach. Upon approval, proposed rates will impact a customer’s utility bill differently based on various factors. This includes water/wastewater consumption, utilization of the reclaimed water system, and determination of a customer’s stormwater tier. The single-family residential stormwater tier rates were approved by City Council for implementation in FY20 and separated single-family residential customers into one of four tiers. These tiers were developed based upon the amount of impervious surface area on a customer’s property. While the proposed rates include changes to the level of the stormwater fees for each tier, there are no proposed changes to the tiers or ranges of impervious area. Tables 2-5 below represents a typical customer’s utility bill, by tier, for a single-family resident with the FY21 Proposed Utility Rates included. Scenarios also include 4,000 gallons per month of water and wastewater use, utilization of sanitation and recycling services, and two different total bill amounts, which include or exclude reclaimed water services.

It is important to note that although all utility services are consolidated into one utility bill, each enterprise is reviewed and presented to City Council individually. The Capital Improvement Program and Operating Budgets were presented to City Council on April 23, 2020 and May 5, 2020 at the Committee of the Whole Budget Workshops. A high-level summary of major impacts that affected the FY21 proposed rates for each enterprise is as follows: Projected FY21 Water Resources System Requirements The rate analysis includes projected expense requirements for the FY21 Water Resources Operating Fund projected at $163.1 million in FY21. This is a decrease of (.50%) over the FY20 Adopted Operating Budget. Although a small decrease in the overall Operating Fund is recommended, the Water Resources Operating Fund will still support a $41.2 million transfer in operating funds to the Water Resources Debt Funds, as well as a $8.6 million transfer to the Water Resources Capital Fund for essential capital improvement projects. In previous years, the bond rating agencies expressed concern that cash funded capital was low while debt continued to be issued. It was decided during the FY18 Rate Study that the transfer to capital increase would be accelerated to reach a 50/50 funding balance by FY22. Due to the emergence of the Covid-19 Global Pandemic, administration is proposing a delay in the continued progression of a 50/50 cash to debt funding plan and recommends maintaining a 40/60 plan for the remainder of the 10-year forecast. By meeting the 40/60 cash to debt funding in FY21, the City will have saved $495 million in interest savings over the life of the debt and will provide a reduced level of rate increases to the customer across the 10-year forecast. The FY21-25 Water Resources Capital Improvement Plan includes significant capital enhancements to the systems’ assets including projects associated with the Consent Order executed on July 26, 2017. Highlights of the plan include continued improvements to the water reclamation facilities, as well as $9 million in funding per year in the City’s Citywide Infrastructure Capital Improvement Fund (Penny Funding) for the Sanitary Sewer Inflow and Infiltration Removal Project. $18.95 million for collection system improvements is budgeted through FY23 (structural repair and inflow and infiltration) and $16.95 thereafter. Below is a summary of the 5-year Capital Improvement Plan. Table 6

The proposed rate increase for FY21 is mitigated using the Water Cost Stabilization Fund to meet the Target Fund Balance for three (3) months of operating expenses associated with water, wastewater, and reclaimed water. Two (2) months of the Target Fund Balance are proposed to be met by a portion of the Water Cost Stabilization Fund reserve while one (1) month will be met by the Operating Fund reserve. The target fund balance excludes the transfer to capital share of expenses. Reclaimed Water Reclaimed water rates recover approximately 80% of system costs, with the remaining balance recovered via water and wastewater retail rates. To maintain approximately 80% cost recovery rate for reclaimed water customers, there will be no change to the reclaimed water rate for FY21. The current FY21 capital improvement plan does include enhancements to the Water Resources Reclaimed System in the amount of $1.76 million. Stormwater The FY21 proposed Stormwater fee increase is 10.07% and supports a proposed operating budget in the amount of $22.66 million and a five-year CIP Program in the amount of $80.79 million. Increased expenditures include anticipated requirements for the Stormwater Operating budget, as well as continued planning for the Stormwater Master Plan which is projected to be completed in FY23. The Stormwater Utility will continue to review levels of service across FY20 and FY21 which will have an impact on programmatic future outcomes. The Stormwater Utility also aligns the CIP Program planning with the bond rating agency recommendations for an accelerated 50/50 cash to borrow funding plan. In FY21, the current CIP Program is proposed to receive a $1.67 million transfer from the Operating budget and is anticipated to reach the 50/50 cash to borrow funding plan by FY30. Sanitation The 3.00% proposed increase in Sanitation service rates will bring operational revenues in line with rising operational expenses. The rate proposal also includes a baseline provision for replacement of Sanitation facilities, a catch-up funding replacement cycle for dated fleet vehicles, and establishes a fully funded normal replacement cycle for service vehicles on a fiscal basis through FY30. The proposed rate also assumes a 6.00% year-over-year increase in Pinellas County tipping fees and the increase to process fees for the citywide collected recycling content under the current contract. Recommended Action Attached are three rate ordinances. The first reflects the proposed base and variable rate changes for water, wastewater and reclaimed water. The second ordinance reflects the changes to the stormwater utility rate structure fees. The third ordinance reflects the proposed rate change for Sanitation. Deposits, Connection Fees, and Fire Service Fees are proposed to remain the same in FY21 with the potential to update during a future year’s rate study.

_________________________________________________________________________________

MEMORANDUM City of St. Petersburg

TO: Honorable Ed Montanari, Chair, and Members of City Council

FROM: Rick Kriseman, Mayor


RE: First Reading of FY21 Tentative Budget Appropriations Ordinance and

Report of Changes from the Recommended Budget

Background: This report provides material for adoption of the tentative budget for FY21 and

contains material related to the Public Hearing scheduled for September 3, 2020 at 6:00 PM by

means of communications media technology via Zoom. At that hearing, staff will present the first

reading of the FY21 Budget/Appropriations Ordinance and certain material that is statutorily

required to comply with the “Truth in Millage” (TRIM) law. Final action on the FY21 budget is

scheduled to take place at the conclusion of the second Public Hearing scheduled for September

17, 2020 at 6:00 PM by means of communications media technology via Zoom.

Explanation: The Recommended Budget for FY21 was submitted to City Council on July 10,

2020. In accordance with statutory requirements, two public hearings have been scheduled

(September 3rd and September 17th) to receive public comment on the FY21 budget. In preparation

for the first Public Hearing, this report conveys the following material:

• Agenda for the September 3rd Public Hearing Attachment A

- providing statutory requirements

• Listing and description of all substantive Attachment B

changes made to both projected revenues

and anticipated expenditures for FY21 since

submission of the Recommended Budget on

July 10, 2020

• Resolution which adopts the proposed Attachment C

millage rate of 6.7550 mills

• Recommended Budget/Appropriations Attachment D

Ordinance

P.O. BOX 2842, ST. PETERSBURG, FLORIDA 33731 I TELEPHONE: (727) 893-7201 I FAX: (727) 892-5365 I STPETE.ORG

• Resolution which adopts the Recommended Attachment E

Budget/Appropriations Ordinance as the

tentative budget at the first Public Hearing

Adoption of Proposed Millage and Rolled Back Rate

The proposed aggregate millage rate adopted by City Council on July 16, 2020 was 6.7550 mills.

The Recommended FY21 Budget included that proposed millage rate of 6.7550 which represents

a 6.37% increase from the rolled back rate of 6.3502 mills. The rolled back rate is the rate that

will generate approximately the same amount of revenue as the prior year given the current

assessed property values (with exclusions provided by State Statute including new construction,

newly annexed properties, etc.). City policy provides that ad valorem revenue will be estimated

at 96% to allow for early payment discounts, uncollectibles, and value adjustment board revisions.

The proposed millage rate of 6.7550, which provides ad valorem revenue of $148.252 million,

along with the times and dates for the public hearings are advertised by the Pinellas County

Property Appraiser via TRIM notices mailed to all property owners. Revenues and expenditures

are detailed in the Recap of Changes (Attachment B). At this first public hearing, Council will

adopt the proposed millage rate, which cannot exceed the advertised millage rate of 6.7550 without

taxpayer notification by mail, at the city’s expense (s. 200.065(2)(d), F.S.). Council, can however,

reduce the millage rate from the 6.7550 provided in the TRIM notices without additional

notification or expense.

Council will also be asked to approve changes to the Recommended Budget which have occurred

subsequent to July 10, 2020 and approve the FY21 Tentative Budget which includes these changes.

State Statutes require a very specific format for the adoption process which is provided in the

Agenda shown in Attachment A.

General Information

Several important points may be helpful to Council members in reviewing the attached material.

First, the recommended ordinance sets appropriation levels for the General Fund, Special Revenue

Funds, Enterprise Funds, Debt Service Funds, and for transfers between funds. It appropriates all

Capital Project Funds for FY21, as provided for in the Recommended Capital Improvement

Program with any proposed adjustments. Additionally, the ordinance sets appropriations for

Dependent Special Districts and establishes authorization levels for each of the city’s Internal

Service Funds. For Internal Service Funds only the portion of funding provided from fund balance

or other external funding sources to partially offset operational cost (if any) is included in the

appropriation. The remaining portion of the Internal Service Funds does not require formal

appropriation inasmuch as they are funded through charges to those departments which use their

services. Setting an authorization level allows Council to establish a funding level for each internal

service operation while avoiding duplicate appropriations.

Subsequent to development of the Recommended Budget, staff has continued to monitor revenue

sources and evaluate both departmental budget requests and expenditure needs. As a result,

changes are proposed in many funds. A summary of all of the changes are shown on the attached

“Recap of Changes in the Recommended Budget for the Proposed Ordinance,” Attachment B.

Recommendation/Action Required

It is recommended that City Council adopt the proposed millage rate of 6.7550 according to F.S.

200.065 and then approve the Recommended FY21 Budget/Appropriations Ordinance on first

reading. It is further recommended that City Council approve the resolution adopting the

Recommended FY21 Budget Appropriations Ordinance (as modified by the changes presented in

Attachment B) as the tentative budget for the City of St. Petersburg for fiscal year ending

September 30, 2021. Final action on the FY21 budget will occur at the conclusion of the

September 17th Public Hearing.

Explanation: On March 30, 2020, the Procurement and Supply Management issued Request for Qualifications No. 7619 for a Construction Manager for the 22nd Street Corridor Improvements, Phase 1. On April 16, 2020, the City received two Statements of Qualifications (SOQs) from the following firms:

1. Biltmore Construction Co., Inc. 2. LEMA Construction & Developers, Inc.

Evaluation of the Statements of Qualifications was conducted by the following staff:

Brejesh Prayman, Engineering & Capital Improvements Director Cheryl Stacks, Transportation Manager Evan Birk, Engineering Design Manager Brian Caper, Economic Development Officer Mark Laney, Capital Improvements Construction Coordinator Michael Gebler, Capital Projects Coordinator

The Statements of Qualifications were evaluated based on the following criteria:

• Team background and experience

• Project approach

• Relevant project examples

• Certification as a Small, Minority, Women and Disadvantaged Business Enterprise On May 13, 2020, the evaluation committee met to review the statements of qualifications. Both firms were invited for presentations and interviews. On June 18, 2020, the evaluation committee heard presentations from each of the shortlisted firms and ranked Biltmore Construction, Co., Inc. (“Biltmore” or “CM”) as the top-ranked firm, followed by LEMA Construction & Developers, Inc. Biltmore was determined to be the most qualified firm, taking into consideration their qualifications and experience, understanding of the project, local knowledge, appropriate staffing structure, prior experience with corridor improvements, and the evaluation criteria set forth in the RFQ. Administration has negotiated a construction manager agreement (CM Agreement) with Biltmore Construction, Co., Inc. for a lump sum amount of $50,600 for pre-construction services with Biltmore Construction, Co. Inc. Once City Council approves the attached resolution, the City and Biltmore Construction, Co., Inc. will enter into a CM Agreement for the 22nd Street South corridor improvements. The CM will provide preconstruction phase services in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the CM Agreement. The CM shall provide control estimate proposals for each of the four elements of the Project, which shall become a part of the CM Agreement through amendment(s) for the construction of the corridor improvements along 22nd Street South, from 1st Avenue South to 11th Avenue South within the City’s construction cost budget.

Preconstruction services with the CM include, but are not limited to:

• Work with the City’s A/E to develop a cost plan

• Providing cost estimates during the design phases

• Constructability reviews

• Value engineering

• Developing project scheduling

• Public outreach

• Vendor outreach and Procurement coordination The Preconstruction phase fees are as follows:

Total preconstruction phase fee: $50,600

The construction phase will commence upon City Council’s approval of an amendment to incorporate control estimates and the issuance of a Notice to Proceed. The amendment will include the cost of the work, plus the construction manager’s fee. During the construction phase, the CM will assume the responsibility as the contractor and will proceed to construct the improvements. All construction work will be competitively bid by the CM in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the CM agreement. The Engineering and Capital Improvements Department will negotiate with Biltmore Construction Co., Inc. for construction phase services after bids are received. Biltmore has provided similar services for the cities of Largo and St. Petersburg and for Pasco County, and has performed satisfactorily. The principals of the firm are ED Parker, Jr., president, and Travis Parker, COO, vice president.

The Procurement and Supply Management Department, in cooperation with the Engineering and Capital Improvements Department, recommends that City Council approve the attached resolution. Biltmore will present an SBE utilization proposal to the SBE Committee during the pre-construction phase while the costs for construction of Project components are finalized. After preconstruction services are provided by Biltmore, ECID will amend the agreement to include the construction phase. The amendment will include the approved SBE goal, apprentice, disadvantaged worker, and responsible wage ordinance requirements.

City property by reason of any work, labor, services or materials performed at or furnished to

the Facility or any other City property, to Operator, or to anyone using the Facility or any

construed as a consent on the part of the City to subject the Facility or any other City

property or any part thereof to any lien or liability under any Laws.

25. No Construction Against Preparer of Agreement. This Agreement has been prepared by

the City and reviewed by Operator and its professional advisors. The City, Operator and

Agreement shall be kept by Operator and shall be open to examination or audit by the City

during the Term and for the retention periods set forth in the most recent General Records

Schedule GS1-SL for State and Local Government Agencies. Nothing herein shall be

construed to allow destruction of records that may be required to be retained longer by the

prior to termination of this Agreement, including but not limited to those obligations and

rights related to indemnification, shall survive termination of this Agreement.

troubles, failure of power, riots, insurrection, war, acts of God, public health emergencies, or

expressly waived in writing signed by the waiving party. No waiver shall be implied by

delay or any other act or omission of either party. No waiver by either party of any provision

of this Agreement shall be deemed a waiver of such provision with respect to any subsequent

shall not constitute a waiver of the requirement for obtaining the City’s consent respecting

any subsequent action.

11

33. Permits and Licenses. Operator shall be responsible for obtaining any and all necessary

permits, licenses, certifications and approvals which may be required by any government

agency in connection with Operator’s performance of this Agreement. Upon request of the

responsible for ensuring that any subcontractor retained by Operator acts in a manner

consistent with and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Operator

shall promptly pay all subcontractors and suppliers. In no event shall Operator’s retention of

12

38. Naming Rights. Unless otherwise approved by City Council, the name “Al Lang” shall be

included in the name of the Facility or in the name of the field at the Facility. Subject to the

foregoing, the City shall have the right, at its expense, to rename or sell the name of the

Facility. Any net naming rights proceeds less selling expenses and/or commissions up to one

hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) per Fiscal Year shall be shared as follows: eighty

percent (80%) to the City and twenty percent (20%) to Operator. Any net naming rights

proceeds less selling expenses and/or commissions in excess of one hundred thousand dollars

($100,000) per Fiscal Year shall be shared as follows: twenty percent (20%) to the City on

the amount that exceeds one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) and eighty percent (80%)

to Operator on the amount that exceeds one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000). For

example, if the net naming rights proceeds less selling expenses and/or commissions are

$125,000 for Fiscal Year 2021, the City would retain eighty percent (80%) of $100,000 and

twenty percent (20%) on the remaining amount of $25,000 and Operator would receive

twenty percent (20%) of $100,000 and eighty percent (80%) on the remaining amount of

40. Appendices. Each appendix to this Agreement, including all attachments to each appendix,

is an essential part hereof and is incorporated herein by reference.

41. Grand Prix Race Agreement and Grand Prix Race Event; Saturday Morning Market.

A. Grand Prix Race Agreement: This Agreement is subject to current and future

agreements with third parties for the conduct of racing events in downtown St.

Petersburg (any such agreement hereinafter referred to as “Grand Prix Race

Agreement”) and all rights (exclusive rights and other rights) and authority granted

thereunder, including but not limited to rights related to use of the Facility. Without

limiting the generality of the foregoing, Operator acknowledges and agrees that (i)

the Facility and Operator’s business operations will be impacted by Race Events and

other activities that will occur before, during and after Race Events (e.g.,

construction, set-up and tear down activities), and (ii) that the Facility will be closed

to the general public for certain periods of time in connection with Race Events

(although ticket holders for Race Events may have access to the Facility). In the

event of a conflict or ambiguity between this Agreement and any Grand Prix Race

Agreement, the Grand Prix Race Agreement shall prevail. As used herein, the terms

“Race Event,” “Race Area,” “Race Promoter” and “Race Period” shall have the

meanings set forth in the Grand Prix Race Agreement.

13

B. Grand Prix Race Event: In the absence of a written agreement between Operator and

Race Promoter which specifically provides otherwise, Operator shall comply with

other regulations as may be imposed by the City from time to time:

prohibited.

(4) Temporary structures, including tents, shall not be erected and are prohibited.

(6) Streamers, pennants, banners and inflatables, located within the Facility,

which are visible from any street right-of-way and/or the Race Area, are

prohibited.

C. Saturday Morning Market: This Agreement is subject to current and future

agreements with third parties for the conduct of a Saturday Morning Market in the Al

Lang Parking Lot (any such agreement hereinafter referred to as “Saturday Morning

Market Agreement”) and all rights (exclusive rights and other rights) and authority

granted thereunder, including but not limited to rights related to use of the Al Lang

Parking Lot. For purposes of this Agreement, Al Lang Parking Lot shall mean the

area designated by the City as the Al Lang Parking Lot. Following the Execution

Date, the City shall not enter into any Saturday Morning Market Agreement that

grants any third party use of the Al Lang Parking Lot after 4:00 pm on any Saturday.

42. Al Lang Parking Lot.

A. The City or its third party manager shall manage and operate all parking at the Al

Lang Parking Lot during the Term. The City will retain all gross sales and profits

from parking operations except for net profits related to parking for any Al Lang

Event, which net profits shall be remitted by the City to Operator subject to and in

accordance with this Paragraph 42. For purposes of this Paragraph 42, an Al Lang

Event is defined as a public event within the field area of the Facility occurring after

6 p.m. on weekdays or on weekends or holidays.

14

B. Operator shall notify the City of each Al Lang Event no later than sixty (60) days

prior to the event (or such shorter period of time agreed upon by the City). Subject to

Paragraph 41, the City shall not enter into any agreement for use of the Al Lang

Parking Lot during an Al Lang Event without the written approval of Operator,

which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event that the City desires

to use the Al Lang Parking Lot on a date for which the City has not received notice

of an Al Lang Event, the City will provide Operator with notice of the date

requested. No later than five (5) business days after receiving such request from the

City, Operator shall advise the City if such date will conflict with a tentative Al Lang

Event that has not yet been scheduled. If Operator advises that such date does not

conflict with a tentative Al Lang Event, the City shall have reserved use of the Al

Lang Parking Lot for such date and Operator shall have no right to cancel the City’s

use of the Al Lang Parking Lot on such date. If Operator advises that such date does

conflict with a tentative Al Lang Event, the City and Operator shall schedule a

meeting to discuss the conflict.

C. At least one (1) week prior to any Al Lang Event, Operator shall submit to the City a

proposed Al Lang Event parking plan. Such parking plan shall include (at a

minimum): (i) the requested amount of staffing; (ii) number of hours the Al Lang

Parking Lot should be staffed; (iii) start and end times of the Al Lang Event; (iv)

allocation of the parking areas by user (e.g., Operator’s staff, VIP, Rowdies’ season

ticket holders, and general public); and (v) proposed parking rates. No later than

three (3) business days after receiving Operator’s written request for approval of such

proposed Al Lang Event parking plan, the City will provide a response either

approving the plan, approving the plan subject to modifications or conditions, or

rejecting the plan. Operator may submit a proposed Al Lang Event parking plan to

be used for a reoccurring Al Lang Event (i.e., Rowdies home games). Any approved

Al Lang Event parking plan (whether approved as submitted or approved subject to

modifications or conditions) shall be implemented by the City or its third party

manager. Operator agrees to cooperate with the City or its third party manager to

address any issues related to an Al Lang Event parking plan that arise during an Al

Lang Event (e.g., less space due to vehicles remaining in the Al Lang Parking Lot

after 6 p.m. that are permitted pursuant to a monthly parking agreement). Within

forty-five (45) days after an Al Lang Event, the City will remit to Operator the net

profit, if any, from parking pursuant to an Al Lang Event parking plan. Net profit

shall be gross sales less any reasonable parking expenses directly associated with the

Al Lang Event. Should there be a net loss from parking pursuant to an Al Lang Event

parking plan, the City shall invoice Operator for this amount. Operator shall remit to

the City the amount of the net loss within thirty (30) days of the invoice date. The

City shall retain records for the parking expenses charged to Operator pursuant to

this Paragraph 42 (which records shall describe such expenses), permit Operator

access to such records, and provide Operator with a list of such parking expenses

along with the remitted net profit from parking pursuant to an Al Lang Event.

15

D. Subject to Paragraph 41, the City will provide Operator up to twelve (12) reserved

parking spaces in the Al Lang Parking Lot for Operator’s use at no cost to Operator;

provided, however, that the City shall have the right to immediate access and use of

the Al Lang Parking Lot (with no guarantee of any reserved parking spaces) at any

time upon verbal notice to Operator.

E. If Operator desires to use the Al Lang Parking Lot for any activity or purpose other

than parking for an Al Lang Event pursuant to an Al Lang Event parking plan,

Operator shall obtain prior written approval from the City. If approved by the City,

Operator shall execute all documents required by the City or its third party manager

and shall name the City and its third party manager as additional insureds on all

required policies of insurance.

F. For purposes of this Paragraph 42, the City and Operator may send written notices

and written requests via email to the individuals designated by the City and Operator

for such purpose.

43. Capital Improvements.

A. Capital Improvements shall mean repairs, renewals, and replacements of the Facility

buildings, structures, equipment or fixtures which have an expected useful life

greater than three (3) years. Capital Improvements include but are not limited to

buildings; appurtenances (e.g., fences, roofs, walls and bleachers); heating,

ventilation, air conditioning, mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems; elevators;

irrigation; and field turf. All other improvements and repairs shall be considered

operations and maintenance.

B. Operator shall not make any Capital Improvements without, in each case, first

obtaining the prior written approval of the City. All Capital Improvements shall

immediately become the property of the City.

C. The City shall have no obligation to fund any Capital Improvements.

D. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and notwithstanding anything to the

contrary contained in this Agreement, Operator acknowledges and agrees that (i) any

person or entity that Operator retains, contracts with or utilizes in connection with

making Capital Improvements shall be considered a subcontractor of Operator under

this Agreement; (ii) Operator shall comply or cause its subcontractors to comply with

all Laws applicable to the design and construction of Capital Improvements,

including but not limited to Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act, building

codes and fire codes; and (iii) Operator shall comply or cause its subcontractors to

comply with Laws related to public buildings and public works (e.g., Section 255.05,

Florida Statutes) in making Capital Improvements.

16

44. Security. Operator shall be responsible for all security for the Facility and events held at the

Facility.

45. Access to Facility by Operator. The City shall maintain Operator’s ingress and egress to

and from the Facility uninterrupted at the level presently provided, except as otherwise set

forth in this Agreement. The present level of ingress and egress recognizes the fact that there

are at times temporary suspension of ingress and egress for construction projects or City co-

sponsored or authorized special events, including but not limited to the Grand Prix Race

Event, other racing events and the Saturday Morning Market. The number and duration of

such interruptions shall be determined by the City in its sole and absolute discretion.

46. Taxes. Operator shall pay all taxes associated with the use and operation of the Facility,

including but not limited to ad valorem taxes, except for: (a) subject to Paragraph 46(c)

below, the City shall pay that portion of the ad valorem taxes levied by the City on the land

and structures constituting the Facility; (b) subject to Paragraph 46(c) below, the City shall

pay that portion of the ad valorem taxes levied by Pinellas County on the building and

structure constituting the Facility which represents the tax increment portion payable to the

City of St. Petersburg Community Redevelopment Agency pursuant to Chapter 163, Florida

Statutes, by virtue of the Intown Redevelopment Plan; and (c) notwithstanding Paragraph

46(a) or Paragraph 46(b) above, the City shall not pay taxes pursuant to Paragraph 46(a) or

Paragraph 46(b) above for any portion of the Facility that is used for Operator’s business

operations (e.g., concessions). The Parties agree to cooperate in communicating with the

Pinellas County Property Appraiser to minimize any increase in ad valorem taxes payable for

the Facility.

47. City’s Use of the Facility. The City may reserve for its own use up to four (4) dates at the

Facility each Fiscal Year for events and activities to be sponsored by the City (“City Use

Dates”), not including the Grand Prix Race Event. These City Use Dates will be provided

rent free to the City; provided, however, that the City shall reimburse Operator for any direct

out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with such City Use Dates (not including

expenses already incurred by Operator in connection with the daily operation of the Facility,

e.g. ordinary utilities). During each Fiscal Year, the City will provide notice of dates

requested to Operator and Operator shall use its best efforts to schedule its use of the Facility

so as to not interfere with the City’s requested dates. Once a City Use Date is reserved by

Operator, Operator shall not cancel such City Use Date.

48. Hazardous Materials.

A. Operator shall not transport, use, store, maintain, generate, manufacture, handle,

dispose, release or discharge any Hazardous Material (as hereinafter defined) or

permit any of Operator’s employees, agents, representatives, contractors,

subcontractors or volunteers to engage in such activities. However, the foregoing

shall not prohibit the transportation to and from, and use, storage, maintenance and

handling within the Facility of substances customarily used in the management,

17

maintenance and operation of the Facility, provided: (a) such substances shall be

used and maintained only in such quantities as are reasonably necessary for the

management and operation of the Facility, strictly in accordance with applicable

Laws, highest prevailing standards, and the manufacturers’ instructions therefor; (b)

such substances shall not be disposed of, released or discharged at the Facility, and

shall be transported to and from the Facility in compliance with all applicable Laws;

(c) if any applicable Laws or the City’s trash removal provider requires that any such

substances be disposed of separately from ordinary trash, Operator shall make

arrangements at Operator’s expense for such disposal directly with a qualified and

licensed disposal company at a lawful disposal site; (d) any such substances shall be

completely, properly and lawfully removed from the Facility upon termination of this

Agreement; and (e) for purposes of removal and disposal of any such substances,

Operator shall be named as the owner and generator, obtain a waste generator

identification number, and execute all permit applications, manifests, waste

characterization documents and any other required forms. The term “Hazardous

Material” shall mean any chemical, substance, material or waste or component

thereof which is now or hereafter listed, defined or regulated as a hazardous or toxic

chemical, substance, material or waste or component thereof by any federal, state or

local governing or regulatory body having jurisdiction, or which would trigger any

employee or community Aright-to-know@ requirements adopted by any such body,

or for which any such body has adopted any requirements for the preparation or

distribution of a material safety data sheet (“MSDS”).

B. Operator shall immediately notify the City of: (i) any enforcement, cleanup or other

regulatory action taken or threatened by any governmental or regulatory authority

with respect to the presence of any Hazardous Material at the Facility or the

migration thereof from or to other property, (ii) any demands or claims made or

threatened by any party relating to any loss or injury resulting from any Hazardous

Material at the Facility, (iii) any release, discharge or improper or unlawful disposal

or transportation of any Hazardous Material on or from the Facility or in violation of

this paragraph, and (iv) any matters where Operator is required by applicable Laws to

give a notice to any governmental or regulatory authority respecting any Hazardous

Material at the Facility. At such times as the City may request, Operator shall

provide the City with a written list, certified to be true and complete, identifying any

Hazardous Material then used, stored, or maintained upon the Facility, the use and

approximate quantity of each such material, a copy of any MSDS issued by the

manufacturer therefor, and such other information as the City may require or as may

be required by applicable Laws.

C. If any Hazardous Material is released, discharged or disposed of by Operator or its

employees, agents, representatives, contractors, subcontractors or volunteers in

violation of this paragraph, Contactor shall immediately, properly and in compliance

with applicable Laws notify the proper authorities, notify the City, cleanup and

remove the Hazardous Material from the Facility and any other affected property and

18

clean or replace any affected personal property (whether or not owned by the City),

at Operator’s expense (without limiting the City’s other remedies therefor). Such

cleanup and removal work shall be subject to the City’s prior written approval

(except in emergencies) and shall include, without limitation, any testing,

investigation, preparation and implementation of any remedial action plan required

by any court or governmental body having jurisdiction or required by the City. In the

event the City elects in its sole discretion to have any testing, investigation and/or

cleanup (including but not limited to preparation and implementation of a remedial

action plan) performed by a City provider (or providers), Operator shall cooperate

with the provider(s) performing such testing, investigation and/or cleanup as directed

by the provider(s) and the City, and if such testing or investigation shows that

Operator has violated this paragraph, Operator shall promptly pay the provider(s) the

total amount charged by the provider(s) in connection with the testing, investigation

and cleanup. Nothing contained in this paragraph shall limit or otherwise affect

Operator’s indemnity obligations set forth in this Agreement.

49. Use Agreements.

A. All use agreements shall be entered into between Operator (in its own name) and the

user.

B. Operator shall be responsible for negotiating the terms and conditions of all use

agreements, provided that such terms and conditions are consistent with this

Agreement, and further provided that Operator shall ensure that all use agreements

require the user to (i) name the Indemnified Parties as additional insured on all

insurance required to be obtained by user pursuant to the use agreement, and (ii)

defend and indemnify the Indemnified Parties against any and all claims related to

user’s use of the Facility.

C. All use agreements for publicly ticketed events shall contain a provision requiring the

user to provide ten (10) tickets to the City for the event, at no cost to the City, for the

promotion and development of the City, but not for resale. In addition, Operator

shall provide the City ten (10) tickets to all Rowdies home games, including any

playoff games played at the Facility, at no cost to the City, for the promotion and

development of the City, but not for resale. The City will inform Operator if the City

requires less than ten (10) tickets for an event.

50. No Right to Pledge, Encumber or Cause the City to Assume Liability. Operator shall

have no right or authority to pledge or encumber the credit of the City. Operator shall have

no right or authority to cause the City to assume liability for any contract, lease, purchase or

other agreement without Approval.

51. Non-Disparagement. No Covered Person shall disparage the condition of the Facility. For

purposes of this paragraph, “disparage” means to make any negative statement, whether

19

orally or in written or electronic form, and “Covered Person” means Operator or any

member, manager, or officer of Operator. Notwithstanding the foregoing, internal business

discussions among Covered Persons and statements required to be made pursuant to legal

process (e.g., pursuant to court order or subpoena), shall not constitute a violation of this

paragraph.

HB 1339 Update A presentation was given by Elizabeth Abernethy, Planning Development Director, regarding Florida House Bill 1339. Ms. Abernethy went over the language of the state statute, the Affordable Housing Advisory Committee’s motion at their July 22, 2020 meeting to encourage adoption and streamline the process, and potential code modifications (site plan review process, public notice, definition of Affordable, Affordability period). Ms. Abernethy stated that she wanted to bring the idea to Council to inquire if they had interest for staff to pursue some more specific recommendations and bring back to committee for consideration. Committee Vice-Chair Gabbard shared that she is in full support of moving forward with Ms. Abernethy’s offer to pursue more specific recommendations. Committee Vice-Chair Gabbard made a motion to ask staff to begin the process of putting something together and bringing this back to the committee as soon as they are able to do so. The motion was approved unanimously. Council Member (CM) Rice asked about the piece of the bill that would allow private entities to bond these projects but indicated this could be discussed offline if not the focus of today’s discussion. CM Rice added that she is in full support of moving forward. Committee Chair Foster asked that Ms. Abernethy draft something and bring it back to the committee. Committee Chair Foster asked Ms. Abernethy how much time she needed and if the September meeting is too soon. Ms. Abernethy offered to come back to the September meeting with more details as far as what staff is thinking of as a process. Mayor’s 10 Year Affordable Plan Housing Update A presentation was given by Robert Gerdes, Neighborhood Affairs Administrator, on an update of St. Petersburg’s Housing Plan. This 10-year plan was developed, setting goals to address housing affordability by expanding existing programs and introducing new solutions. The plan will impact approximately 7,000 households across the City. Overall, this is an approximate 75% increase over the previous 10 years. Mr. Gerdes’ presentation discussed low-and moderate-income households (those who earn up to 120% of the Area Median Income (AMI)) and noted that there has been a lot of developer interest recently. Mr. Gerdes will provide updates as they move along. Mr. Gerdes then discussed federal, state, and local funding including State Housing Initiative Partnership (SHIP) funding, City-Owned Land, Penny for Pinellas, South

St. Petersburg Community Redevelopment Area (SSP CRA), Floor Area Ratio (FAR) Bonus, and Linkage Fee. Lastly, Mr. Gerdes shared information about middle-income households and above (those who earn more than 120% of AMI).

CM Driscoll asked if the FAR Bonus should be revisited to make a change based on the status of the Linkage Fees, changing the calculation and increasing the amount that would go into affordable and workforce housing. Mr. Gerdes responded that based on HB 1339 and language regarding linkage fees he thinks there is opportunity for a hybrid model. That will be part of an on-going discussion with the Planning Department. Mr. Gerdes asked for time to work through some of the issues holistically and that could come back forward as a potential package at a later date.

CM Driscoll asked that regarding the purchase assistance for single-family home buyers, has staff looked at expanding that to not just include single-family homes such as condominiums or other types of dwelling. Mr. Gerdes clarified that a person can qualify for townhome, condominium, or single-family home purchasing assistance.

CM Rice asked if there is anything the City can do to help develop and encourage a loan product so that homeowners can find an affordable way to build accessory dwelling units (ADU)’s on their property. Mr. Gerdes responded that Mr. Kilborn and his team have a lending analysis currently going on that is grant funded so staff should get some information out of that. Mr. Gerdes added that there should be potential discussion in the future about a loan product. Mr. Gerdes’ concern is that he has limited resources to begin with and his priority on any funding he procures is to put towards multi-family since that puts the most units out there. Mr. Gerdes is unsure how they could fund such a loan product with all of the competing financial interest on housing affordability but is happy to look into it. CM Rice clarified and asked if the City could play an advocacy role. Mr. Gerdes stated that they could re-group with Jason Mathis and the banks and look at an opportunity to assist.

Committee Vice-Chair Gabbard shared that the LAIR committee will have a Sadowski fund update at their 2:00 p.m. meeting from the City’s lobbyists in Tallahassee. Committee Vice-Chair Gabbard also echoed CM Driscoll’s concern/question about going back and looking at the FAR Bonus now that Linkage Fee is not moving forward at this time. Committee Vice-Chair Gabbard encouraged Mr. Gerdes, Ms. Abernethy, and Mr. Kilborn to look at this again and see if that could be brought back into the conversation.

Committee Vice-Chair Gabbard also asked if staff has looked at increasing N-team funds, rebate for rehab funds, and programs as a City-wide resource. Mr. Gerdes responded that they have transitioned the rebate for rehab program into an affordable rebate for rehab. Significant funding is available, the rebate is much higher, but there is an affordability requirement. Committee Vice-Chair Gabbard clarified her question and asked if that had been expanded to be City-wide since it was initially CRA specific. Mr. Gerdes responded that he has not looked outside of that since the CRA funding is intended to be used for that. To go outside of the CRA, staff would have to look at alternative funding sources. Mr. Gerdes stated regarding the N-team, that it is funded through Sanitation through the Enterprise Fund, although a City-wide program. Two new employees were added to the team and Mr. Donald Putnam and Mr. James Corbett are working very hard on prioritizing different needs by the community and some volunteering issues they have had. Mr. Gerdes would like to have some time to work through those issues before discussing adding additional staff to the N-team.

Committee Vice-Chair Gabbard echoed her sentiments on CM Rice’s comments regarding ADU’s. Committee Vice-Chair Gabbard asked if it could be revisited at the beginning of the year. Committee Vice-Chair also asked about down-payment assistance and how they can get more serious about bolstering that. Lastly, Committee Vice-Chair stated that she wants to get back into conversation about the employer-

assisted housing program which is on the committee referral list. Committee Vice-Chair Gabbard stated that she will follow-up with Tom Greene. It was left off with discussion of distributing a survey to City employees to inquire if that may appeal to them. Committee Vice-Chair Gabbard stressed the importance to move the item forward.

CM Montanari asked how many lots are in inventory within the lot distribution program and where the funding comes from for the developer incentives and sidewalk incentives. Mr. Gerdes stated that the funding for the developer incentive comes from the CRA funding. The sidewalk reimbursement funding comes from the Housing Capital Improvement Fund. Mr. Gerdes stated that regarding the lot distribution program, essentially what is shown in the graph in his presentation is everything the City has that is available for this purpose. Mr. Gerdes added that within the Neighborhood Stabilization program, there are a few lots needing to be finished (around 25) that would potentially be added to the lots inventory at a future date.

CM Montanari asked for a quick refresher on how the program is managed; what is the process for allowing people to wait on these lots. Mr. Gerdes stated there is an approved developer application ensuring applicant is a registered business. After that, applicants are added to an approved developer list and as lots are approved for the program there will be a committee meeting (in September) in which all developers will be notified and they can apply for any of the lots that they want. The three-person committee will meet and select what lots are awarded to developers. If developer accepts lot then they enter into a lease to move forward.

Committee Chair Foster stated that she reviewed the referral list and just wanted to mention CM Gabbard already brought up her active item and the committee will still have source of income active as well. Everything else on the list should have been deleted because it was covered today or at the last meeting with the exception of the AHAC update, since they just had a meeting in July, that will be on the September meeting along with Ms. Abernethy so there is nothing else to review on the referral sheet.

Committee Chair Foster stated that if there is no other committee business the meeting is adjourned.

D. New Business

1. Update from Tallahassee – Dr. Jeff Sharkey and John Rodriguez

Capitol Alliance Group Managing Partner Dr. Jeff Sharkey gave an update on the

current situation in Tallahassee stating that all state office buildings are closed and that

he does not believe there will be a call for a special session prior to the November

elections. The biggest issue now for the Governor is safely reopening the state with

phase II and how far that will go. The budget has been impacted significantly by

Covid-19. The Revenue Estimating Conference is tomorrow to give an update on the

State’s budget for this year and next year. Dr. Sharkey says it’s likely the legislature

will come back together in December to assess what the revenue impact will be. With

reserves and CARES funding both parties believe there will be enough money to keep

all state agencies running. The Governor has requested all state agencies to begin

exercising cutting 8% of their budgets this year and 10% for next year.

Florida housing update:

The Governor vetoed $255 million from SHIP funds. This veto does not move this

money in to the general fund. Instead, it holds them in the trust fund. The CARES

Act provided about $250 million in homeowner and rental assistance to help offset that

cut. This money went to the Florida Housing Finance Corporation which also allocates

SHIP funds to local governments. The Sadowski coalition is hopeful that when they

return in December that some if not all these funds can be allocated out to local

governments.

Committee meetings are scheduled to start on January 11, 2021 with Regular Session

starting March 2, 2021.

A new website has been posted called New Taxpayer Accountability & Transparency

Project which will score Cities and Counties on a 6-year average of per capita

spending, debt spending, government salaries, number of full-time employees per

100,000 residents, violent and property crime, local school grades and graduation

rates. This is opposed by the League of Cities and Counties and it’s unclear as to who

will be doing the data analysis.

Government Affairs Director John Rodriguez advised he is looking forward to us

crafting our legislative priorities. He says he’s been contacted by members of the

community who have ideas of things they’d like to see move forward this year as well.

Bills won’t start being filed until after the election in November so we have a couple

of months to get our priorities together and be ready this spring when they start filing

bills.

Council Chair Montanari mentioned the recommended budget cut request of 8 and

10% from the Governor. In reviewing the backup material Council Chair Montanari

mentioned our funding requests from this past session that were vetoed. He wants to

make sure that we do not slow down when it comes to having a robust vision for St.

Petersburg and to ask for everything that we want. He does not want us to limit our

requests based on where we stand right now.

Chief of Policy and Public Engagement Kevin King followed up on Council Chair

Montanari’s request comments that it is a challenging environment last year and

probably more so this year.

Dr. Sharkey responded that as we move through this there are going to be critical areas

that the legislature is going to try to support. Affordable housing and job development

and small business development are certainly in that category. He recommended that

as you begin to look at your priorities you may want to view them in the context of

what the needs are and why these requests are important at this time.

2. 2021 Legislative Session

a. Council Review of 2020 Priorities

Committee Chair Gabbard moved to the next topic and reviewing the list of 2020

priorities explaining that the only priority she sees that can be removed is Urban

Agriculture as we are moving ahead with a city ordinance that will address these

issues.

Council Vice-Chair Gina Driscoll advised she fully supports asking for what we need

and what we want. She then gave a brief update on vessel safety, which was a 2020

priority, stating that she has confirmed with Senator Rouson and Representative Webb

that they are both working on addressing this item again. She will continue to stay

informed by them and is ready to assist on this topic if needed.

Chair Gabbard asked Assistant City Attorney Jane Wallace about crafting the

upcoming resolutions to be topic specific without citing specific bill numbers. Ms.

Wallace deferred to Dr. Sharkey but also explained how items come back several

times until they are passed. The prior resolutions can be tweaked to reference any

changed language and to specify a specific bill number. Dr. Sharkey and Mr.

Rodriguez agreed with Ms. Wallace that it is always better to try to have the bill

number pinpointed on the resolution. Ms. Wallace explained that we can go ahead and

start the resolutions in advance then wait to finalize them once we have the bill

number.

b. Penny Amendment

Neighborhood Affairs Administrator Rob Gerdes gave an update stating that we made

some progress last year, but the elected officials interested in supporting this wanted to

see more support throughout the county. Mr. Gerdes said that he is currently working

to build a coalition of support and has already been in contact with Pinellas County

staff and the Pinellas County Housing Finance Authority. He is also working on talks

with the staff of the City of Clearwater and the City of Largo.

Mr. Gerdes asked Dr. Sharkey about the timeline for a resolution of support for this

item. Dr. Sharkey replied that Affordable Housing will be a well-received topic this

year and as long as the resolution is in by December it will be good to get on their

radar.

Committee Chair Gabbard opened the discussion and asked if the committee plans to

bring affordable housing as a priority this year, and that this item and the next item

from Council Member Blackmon would be good subtopics under this category of

priority. She is looking for a more holistic approach to our affordable housing request

and would like for a resolution of support from the committee to bring to Council so

that staff and our lobbying team to know they have the full support of Council.

c. Building Permit Special Revenue Fund

Council Member Blackmon gave a brief update on the building permit special revenue

fund stating that he would like to see a change in the statute (Fla. Stat. Sect. 553.80)

that includes a one-time spenddown, to come into compliance, on affordable housing.

This would be a one-time spend down of the overage money in this fund as mandated

by state statute. He believes that using this money to waive permit fees will help both

buyers and developers and it’s critical to reach out to stakeholders early in the process.

Assistant City Attorney Michael Dema followed up by stating that they have language

ready to go in draft form.

Chair Gabbard stated that these two items will come back at the October LAIR

meeting for updates on their coalition building and readiness for resolution.

3. 2021 Council Priorities

Chair Gabbard asked the committee if they would be interested in asking some of our

stakeholders to the October LAIR meeting to review some of their priorities.

Council Chair Montanari would like to suggest input from the three top universities

including USF St. Pete, St, Petersburg College, and Eckerd College in addition to the

Chamber of Commerce.

Council Member Deborah Figgs-Sanders supports building the education eco-system and

would like to know if this collaboration of support is to go after Federal dollars or ways

that we can tie in as a city to a system of collaboration. She stated we need to ensure that

we have the right key stakeholders and would like to include Mr. Sylvester Norwood

from Pinellas Technical College in this conversation.

Chair Gabbard replied that we want to be selective, but we do not want to leave anyone

out. As for Federal legislation, she noted that this is something that has been discussed in

the past but have never finalized a Federal priority list from this Council. Chair Gabbard

plans to bring this up again at the next meeting in October.

Chair Gabbard suggested a list of topics for the next meeting.

• Update on the Penny Amendment and the Building Permit discussion

• Stakeholder (5 min each) priority review

• Discussion on having a Federal priority list

Council Chair Montanari recommends a priority update from Forward Pinellas. Chair

Gabbard said she would reach out to Whit Blanton for an update from him and perhaps

an update from PSTA.

Meeting adjourned: 2:50 p.m.

The Next LAIR meeting will be held on: October 8, 2020 @ 2:00 p.m.

New Business –August 27, 2020 Review Draft Resolution of Support for the Creation of a Food Policy Council – Committee Chair Driscoll, Julie Rocco (Foundation for a Healthy St. Pete), Assistant City Attorney Christina Boussias

Committee Chair Driscoll introduced Julie Rocco, a Senior Community Engagement Advocate at the Foundation for a Healthy St. Petersburg, who began with an overview of the progress made so far for the soon to be established Food Policy Council. Ms. Rocco explained that individuals from multiple organizations/sectors have been identified and she has reached out to those individuals to determine their interest in participating in the Food Policy Council. Ms. Rocco stated that as of now, she has identified 18 potential members from various sectors that influence and/or are influenced by the local community-based food system. Ms. Rocco explained that the following organizations have been invited to participate in the Food Policy Council:

o Pinellas Suncoast Transit Authority (PSTA)

o Sustainable Urban Agriculture Coalition

o Black Farmers o League of Women Voters o Unite Pinellas o St. Pete Chamber of Commerce o Deuces Live o Pinellas Community Church o Feeding Tampa Bay

o St. Pete Free Clinic o USF St. Pete o Pinellas Community Schools o The City of St. Petersburg (Healthy St.

Pete/Health in all Policies – HiAP) o Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital o Area Agency on Aging o Florida Wildlife Corridor o The St. Pete Grocery Cooperative o Feeding America – SNAP Benefits

Program

Ms. Rocco noted that when the invitations were extended, organizations inquired if more than one designee could serve on the Food Policy Council. Ms. Rocco explained that although more than one voice is welcome, and organizations can certainly assign more than one designee

2

to attend the meetings, the structure of the Food Policy Council will be “one organization, one vote.” Once individuals are designated, the Food Policy Council will have their first meeting to establish goals and the role of the group.

CM Driscoll advised Ms. Rocco that she is in discussions with the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services about their potential role on the Food Policy Council.

Committee Vice-Chair Gabbard asked if an invitation has been extended to individuals in the education sector, such as Pinellas Technical College. Ms. Rocco responded that an invitation was extended to the Pinellas County School System and she also added that a few of the committed organizations listed above have representation in the educational sector, such as the Sustainable Urban Agriculture Coalition’s work with the Enoch Davis Youth Farm.

CM Gabbard asked for clarification on the official relationship the City will have with the Food Policy Council and inquired what, if any, Sunshine Law requirements the Food Policy Council might be subject to. Assistant City Attorney Christina Boussias, along with Committee Chair Driscoll, explained that the intent of the resolution is to support the creation of a Food Policy Council, which will be independent of the City and will serve as a stakeholder/advisory group and will not be subject to Sunshine Law. CM Driscoll explained that in researching other food policy councils, it was clear that the groups that were independent of local governments had more productive collaboration and outcomes.

Council Member Rice noted that in addition to PSTA’s participation, she suggested that Ms. Rocco reach out to Forward Pinellas for additional input from the transportation and planning sector.

CM Gabbard moved approval of the resolution in support of the creation of the Food Policy Council and all members voted in favor. CM Driscoll adjourned the meeting at 11:16 AM

D. – (a) Public Utility Debt Refunding Opportunity

Chief Financial Officer, Ms. Anne Fritz, introduced the Public Utility Debt Refunding

Opportunity item. As part of the utility rate study underway, certain outstanding debt (2013B)

while not having a current call feature, may be extinguished with a new issue on a taxable basis,

with a feature to then have an agreement in place that the City could execute a tax-exempt issue

at a stated interest rate ninety days before the call date of October 1, 2022. Ms. Fritz added that

other cities have done an advanced refunding on a taxable basis. Ms. Fritz explained that the City

looks for opportunities for refunding of outstanding debt on a regular basis and this opportunity

has been looked at since March 2020. Ms. Anne Fritz introduced Mr. Jay Glover, representative

from Public Financial Management, in order to give more context. On June 30, the City solicited

proposals through its Financial Advisor, Public Financial Management (PFM), to which they

received six responses. Mr. Glover added that after PFM’s and the City’s review of the

proposals, the City Administration recommends the proposal from TD Bank at a locked-in

taxable rate of 1.60%, and a forward agreement with a tax-exempt rate of 1.30 percent. Mr.

Glover added that it would achieve a Net Present Value savings to the City of $4.9 million with

the taxable option, and upon execution of the tax-exempt issue would increase the savings to

$5.9 million NPV. This opportunity will allow for the release of a portion of the reserve fund and

due to the new bond holders not requiring a reserve fund, the total gross savings on a cash-flow

basis is $8.3 million.

Chair Montanari asked why the annual debt service begins stable and then jumps to $1.2 million

in 2022, and again jumps to $7.5 million in 2029. Mr. Glover explained that the debt service

bonds were originally structured that way, and the refunding wouldn’t change the structure. He

additionally highlighted the savings section of the report. Chair Montanari asked Mr. Glover to

give more context to the ESCROW requirements. Mr. Glover explained that in order to pay off

all the bonds, the City has put the majority of the bond proceeds in an irrevocable ESCROW, and

invested that ESCROW in permitted investments. This is a special type of security called State

and Local Governments Series Certificates (SLGS). Mr. Glover highlighted the section of the

report to show how the SLGS will mature and pay off the bond in 2022. Chair Montanari asked

why the future 2022 resolution is included in the item. Mr. Duane Draper, Bond Counsel

representative, stated that they have structured the tax-exempt bond in advance and provided it in

the resolution in order to show the full context of the opportunity to the committee before it

would come to City Council.

CM Foster made a motion to approve the resolution. All were in favor of the motion

D. –(b) 3rd Quarterly Financial Reports

FY20 Third Quarter Budgetary Performance Report:

Budget Director, Liz Makofske presented the committee with an overview of FY20 third quarter

budgetary performance report. The following was presented:

FY20 Estimates and COVID-19 Pandemic:

• Actual effects on the city’s revenue sources are unknown due to the uncertainty of the

emergency’s length and overall effects on the city’s economy.

• Updated estimates for how each fund will be affected by the pandemic are included in

the report.

FY20 Stoplight Report:

• The General Fund beginning balance is $30.529 million

• Operating beginning fund balance (excluding BP and Irma reimbursement/Fighting

Chance Fund) is $29.341 million

• BP Settlement – $853K is shown in a separate line (all BP resources have been

appropriated.)

• Irma Reimbursement - $353K is shown on a separate line.

• 29 of the 38 funds shown on the stoplight report (76%) are operating within an

acceptable variance of plus or minus 2%.

FY20 General Fund Overview:

• Revenue projections are $279.542 million ($1.457 million under the amended budget

amount).

• The revenue reduction number is being updated daily with new information.

• In total, $8.497 million Hurricane Irma reimbursement, with $6.817 million

reimbursed to the General Fund.

• Expenditure projections are $292.515 million ($3.905 million over the amended

budget amount, and includes $6.8 million in Fighting Chance Fund expenditures)

• Currently projecting a use of $9.731 million in General Fund balance during FY20.

• The projected ending FY20 General Fund balance of $20.798 million is $6.874

million above the Core General Fund 5% target fund balance of $13.924 million

• The projected ending FY20 General Fund Group of Funds balance of $55.610 million

is $0.348 million below the General Fund Group of Funds 20% Target of $55.958

million

• For FY20, we are still estimating that the loss of revenue in the General Fund due to

the current COVID-19 pandemic can be absorbed by the General Fund’s fund

balance. We do not anticipate having to dip into the Economic Stability Fund at this

time.

• A total of 37 CIP projects were completed and closed in the third quarter of FY20

bringing the total projects completed this year to 97.

Chair Montanari asked about the current plan to not pull funds from the Economic Stability

Fund. Ms. Makofske stated that the General Fund balance can support the end of year

expenditures and loss of revenue. Chair Montanari asked about the Sanitation Equipment

Replacement Fund being below its target in the stoplight report. Ms. Makofske added the fund

has been below target for a while and the spending is planned based off the replacement of

sanitation vehicles. Once the equipment has been replaced, the City will work to build that fund

balance back up. Assistant City Administrator, Mr. Tom Greene added that the combination of

fund balances in the Sanitation Operating Fund, which is above target, and the Sanitation

Equipment Replacement Fund, would meet or exceed both fund’s targets. Chair Montanari asked

if the Fighting Chance Fund is included in the estimate amount over budget for the General Fund

expenditures. Ms. Makofske stated that it does include the Fighting Chance Fund expenditures.

Investments:

Ms. Fritz reported that as of June 30, 2020, the General Policy and Alternate Investment Policy

had a combined book value of $812.7 million, a market value of $831.1 million, with a total

unrealized gain of $18.427 million.

The City’s various portfolios within the City’s (General) Investment Policy include the

D. –(c) FY21 Fiscal Policies Changes

Ms. Makofske and Ms. Fritz presented the proposed modifications to the city’s Fiscal

Policies for Fiscal Year 2021. Full descriptions of the proposed modifications to the city’s Fiscal

Policies are provided in the backup and include recommendations under the following

categories: Technical Corrections (Cleanup Items), Fund Balance Targets, Individual Fund

Guidelines, Enterprise Capital Improvements, and Fiscal Sustainability.

Chair Montanari stated that the fiscal policies document should be numbered and asked for some

word changes – take out the words “first ever” and “unanimously” in the new ISAP language

recommended to be included in the fiscal policies. Chair Montanari asked about the fiscal policy

change for funding capital improvements at 40/60 cash versus bond funding. The change is

written to have the target amended to 40/60 for the remainder of the ten-year CIP forecast instead

of the original target of 50/50 by FY22. Chair Montanari added that he believed the 40/60

agreement was just for the upcoming year, and not an agreed-upon target for the full ten years.

Mr. Greene stated that through the rate study, the City will reevaluate the 40/60 change to 50/50

funding on an annual basis. Vice Chair Driscoll stated that the 40/60 should be specifically

reviewed again in FY22, in order to try to achieve the 50/50 target as soon as possible. Ms. Fritz

stated that the document should have some word changes in order to potentially reference the

annual rate study, instead of stating a specific percent target. Assistant City Attorney, Ms.

Jeannine Williams added that legal can work with the Finance and Budget Departments to bring

back a document to full Council that has changes, and no action is needed until it comes to

Council.
