South Miami Downtown Improvements, Phases 1-4 As part of the Hometown Plan implementation, the City of South Miami improved segments of SW 73rd Street, 74th Street, SW 57th Avenue, 58th Court, and 59th Avenue in the downtown area. These streetscape improvements are a continuation of the themes and patterns established in the improvements to Sunset Drive - the primary downtown street. Streetscape elements included 1 wider sidewalks, landscaping, parallel parking, lighting, street furniture, and the pedestrianization of the intersections. Additionally, these Improvements included watermain extensions and new drainage systems. These updated systems were vital to allow the downtown area to develop and expand. A variety of federal and state grants were leveraged and combined to assemble the project funding.

In addition to the roadway design components, C3TS master planned the first three phases and also performed a drainage study for the entire 1800 acre Midtown area where each individual drainage basin was evaluated and recommendations were made for improvements to each basin as they are developed. The first phase required major drainage modifications to existing permits to the individual systems affected through both the local water control district as well as the water management district whereby the City has negotiated maintenance responsibilities with the individual property owners. The system upgrades allow greater discharges into adjacent water bodies and reduces the chance for localized flooding. The construction inspection services included on site personnel to provide the construction engineering administration services inclusive of construction inspection services including but not limited to overseeing, coordinating and inspecting the work of surveyors and construction contractors. Responsibilities included monitoring, record keeping, approving and recommending requisitions for compensation, review of change orders, estimations, claims, scheduling, shop drawings and remedial designs.

Belle Meade Stormwater Pump Station & Drainage Improvements Belle Meade is a 45-acre, single family, residential neighborhood located in the northeastern portion of the City of Miami adjacent to Biscayne Bay. Over the years, problems with the inadequate drainage infrastructure, tidally influenced groundwater, site elevation, and deteriorating streets created a condition of moderate to severe flooding in the area. The City commissioned C3TS to perform a drainage study and best alternative drainage solutions for the problems at Belle Meade. The final design would consider the most effective drainage design, inconvenience during construction, permitting and environmental concerns, effectiveness and reliability, cost, maintenance, and operation. The City's design criteria was that a five-year storm have no ponding and that a ten-year storm have no more that six inches of ponding at the inlets. As an important step in the design process, an AICPR@ (Interconnected Pond Routing Model) model was developed. The model was run and calibrated based on existing conditions. Design iterations were then professional ENGINEERING services ~- RFQ No. 10-04-01 ~=
