Explanation:
On March 12, 2019, the City held a Special Election wherein a majority of voters approved funding in the amount of $14,091,065.00, through a General Obligation Bond (“GO Bond”), for the Tidal Flooding Mitigation and Shoreline Protection Project (“Project”). The project’s purpose was to provide tidal barriers to the City-owned properties most vulnerable to tidal flooding, around the two man-made inlets known as North Lake and South Lake.
On September 21, 2022, the City Commission passed and adopted Resolution No. R-2022-281, authorizing the appropriate City officials to accept and execute the Florida Department of Environmental Protection’s (“FDEP”) Resilient Florida Grant (“Agreement No. 22FRP13”), and authorizing the required match amount to be paid from the GO Bond funds.
The FDEP requested updates to Agreement No. 22FRP13’s exhibits and attachments (“Amendment 1”), and the revised Grant Work Plan providing for the City to fund all design and construction administration costs which will count as grant match, with the City to fund construction costs not less than $12,204,935.00 and FDEP to fund construction costs up to $14,112,000.00.
The FDEP also requested the project be titled “Hollywood Tidal Flooding Mitigation and Shoreline Protection” going forward. This Amendment 1 was approved by the City Commission on December 6, 2023; also approving and authorizing the appropriate City Officials to execute all applicable grant documents, agreements and amendments.
On March 11, 2025, the City Commission passed and adopted Resolution R-2025-072 awarding Invitation for Bid IFB-267-25-WV for Hollywood Tidal Flooding Mitigation and Shoreline Protection Project Sites 3,4,5,11,12,7,8,14,15 & 16 - FDEP 22FRP13 (“IFB-267-25-WV") to Shoreline Foundation, Inc, in an amount up to $3,468,808.00. The FDEP Grant Agreement requires that recipients of federal funds demonstrate compliance with federal requirements, that includes the contractor and subcontractors.
The Corradino Group, Inc. and the City currently have a Continuing Services Agreement for engineering services which was approved by the City Commission. On September 1, 2021, pursuant to Resolution No. R-2021-208. The Continuing Services Agreement with The Corradino Group, Inc. was renewed for an additional final year with an end date of November 10, 2026.
