ivVILLAGE OF KEY BISCAYNE UNDERGROUNDING OF UTILITIES — MASTER PLAN EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In 2006 the Florida Public Service Commission (PSC) voted to amend the Florida Administrative Code to require investor owned utilities (IOU) to file comprehensive storm hardening plans. These plans included storm preparedness initiatives including the hardening of existing transmission structures. Storm hardening is the upgrading of electrical facilities, as well as maintenance practices, so they are better able to withstand extreme weather. Storm hardening of overhead utilities includes: ƒ replacement of wood poles with concrete or steel poles ƒ addition of guy wires for pole support ƒ addition of poles to decrease the span between poles Florida Power & Light (FPL) has implemented these measures in many municipalities as these initiatives were rolled out through their service area. Based on the substantial costs and impacts to the electrical grid caused by past hurricanes, FPL has embarked on a program to harden their network of poles supporting feeder infrastructure to increase their resiliency during future storm events. The Village decided that FPL’s storm hardening program would have a negative impact on the Village’s aesthetics. Considering those impacts along with the reliability and safety benefits, the Village decided that a conversion of the overhead utilities to an underground location, also known as undergrounding, should be pursued. The conversion from overhead to underground facilities will improve the safety, reliability, and aesthetics of the electric and communications infrastructure serving the Village. In the Spring of 2017, Village Council took the first step in the undergrounding process and approved to move forward with a publicly advertised RFQ, which would initiate the process of finding a consultant to prepare a Master Plan to map out the underground conversion to its completion. This master plan will provide a guide for the design and implementation of the undergrounding program. It also provides guidance on how to balance and manage priorities, such as cost, project duration, traffic impacts, and other capital improvement needs during this ambitious project. This master plan summarizes the following activities and recommendations: ™ Data Collection ™ Design Criteria and Conceptual Design Description ™ Phasing and Sequencing Plan ™ Project Delivery Methods ™ Risk Assessment ™ Traffic Management Plan ™ Public Outreach Program ™ Opinion of Schedule ™ Opinion of Probable Cost Data Collection The Village of Key Biscayne is provided with electric service through redundant subaqueous crossings of transmission lines below Biscayne Bay from the mainland to Key Biscayne’s substation. Communication services are routed from the main land over the Rickenbacker Causeway and then underground along Crandon Boulevard to the Village where they are then converted to aerial lines mounted to wood or concrete poles shared Chapter 1Key Biscayne 1

2 3VILLAGE OF KEY BISCAYNE UNDERGROUNDING OF UTILITIES — MASTER PLAN1.0 E X E C U T I V E S U M M A R Y with electrical lines. There are approximately 16 pole-miles of overhead infrastructure and 12 miles of underground infrastructure within the Village limits. Much of the overhead utility infrastructure is located in rear yard easements between street blocks within the single-family residential areas on the west side of Crandon Boulevard and multi-family areas on the east side of Crandon Boulevard. Underground infrastructure is often located within the public right-of-way of the Village. The master plan considers the various aspects that make the Village unique, such as zoning and land use designations, traffic, general topography and soils, types of underground infrastructure that exist, and plans for other future infrastructure improvements. Future infrastructure improvements include projects planned by the Village of Key Biscayne, Miami Dade County Water and Sewer, Miami Dade Traffic, and Hotwire Communications. Each of these considerations play a role in how the overall program will be executed. Design Criteria and Conceptual Design Description Development Through a series of meetings with the Village, FPL, AT&T, Comcast, and other stakeholder utilities, Kimley-Horn assembled general guidelines for design criteria for the undergrounding program. These criteria are intended as guidance for the design of the physical location and placement of conduit and equipment so that consistency in design and construction can be realized over the life of the program. They do not govern the detailed electrical or communications network design that will be performed by FPL, AT&T, and Comcast. Network design by the utility owners will be performed based on their then-current design standards. Utility owners and stakeholders participated in workshops to review design requirements for the proposed underground infrastructure, define significant equipment needs to implement the program, and determine their approximate locations. The Village is currently implementing a street light program to install new light poles and fixtures. The undergrounding project will impact a significant number of street lights within the Village that are currently mounted to FPL- owned utility poles that will ultimately be removed. Street lighting throughout the Village can be replaced with Village owned custom lighting or with FPL owned and maintained light poles and fixtures provided under FPL’s street lighting program, included in their LT-1 Tariff. Phasing and Sequencing Plan Development The master plan provides a recommended phasing and sequencing plan for the implementation of the undergrounding program. This plan provides overall guidance of timing and sequence, but adjustments may be needed in the future to account for changes in technology, various utility and stakeholder requirements, and changes with other work programs within the Village during the implementation of the undergrounding program. Timing and sequencing should be reviewed at the time of design for each phase so any necessary adjustments can be made. The program is proposed to contain four phases. In an effort to accelerate the implementation schedule each phase may contain separate sub- phases or work areas. Each phase is anticipated to have a construction duration of 18 to 24 months. A new phase will begin construction in each year between 2020 and 2024. This allows for adjacent phases to overlap in their duration, which in turn accelerates the implementation schedule. In general, phase 1 through 3 work will begin at the south end of the Village and progress north while phase 4 will return to the south to convert Mashta Island and finish up the west side of the Village. This plan also provides recommendations related to the timing of major infrastructure projects performed by the Village and outside entities in an effort to minimize community impacts and take advantage of potential cost saving efficiencies. Project Delivery Method Recommendation The Village’s undergrounding program is a very large and complex infrastructure program that will be implemented in a phased manner over the next four to six years. It may include not just the undergrounding scope of work, but also roadway and stormwater improvements, water main replacement, and landscaping upgrades. In developing recommendations for project delivery methods for each of phases, the risks to schedule, level of service expectations, and cost must be carefully considered. The more improvements you include in the program the higher the risk. If any single-phase falters in any of those three areas of risk, the remaining phases of the program will be detrimentally affected. For this reason, the project delivery method must balance those risks while yielding the highest probability of project success. Although the delivery method that ultimately gets chosen may depend largely on how much work the Village would like to accomplish as part of the program, this master plan recommends that the Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR ) method of project delivery be used because, in our opinion, it yields the highest probability of success for delivering the various phases of the Village’s Undergrounding Program.

4 5VILLAGE OF KEY BISCAYNE UNDERGROUNDING OF UTILITIES — MASTER PLAN1.0 E X E C U T I V E S U M M A R Y situations include communicating information related to specific design and construction activities that specifically affect the individual resident or business owner. The following methods should be employed to communicate with individuals during the design and construction phases: ƒ Direct email, telephone, and/or direct mailings ƒ Neighborhood meetings ƒ Individual meetings with residents/business owners As a lesson learned on prior projects it is recommended that direct mailings be made to inform residents and business owners that the contractor will be placing equipment within the right-of-way adjacent to their properties. This enables the project team to get ahead of and coordinate with property owners who may have questions or concerns regarding the equipment that will be located adjacent to their homes. This minimizes the impact to the community as they will know exactly what to expect regardless of whether or not they granted an easement. Consistent messaging should occur throughout the duration of the program to keep the community informed about the various stages of the process, the progress that is being made, and the goals and milestones that are being achieved. To that end, a brand logo and tag line has been developed so that residents can immediately identify communications related to this project. Opinion of Schedule Based on the Phasing and Sequencing Plan, an opinion of schedule was developed to better understand how each individual phase of the program would interact with each other during the implementation process. Schedule considerations were developed through discussions with the Village, area contractors with expertise in undergrounding, our experience with recent undergrounding projects, and the utility owners. Construction activity durations are based on reasonable production rates from area contractors with undergrounding expertise. Combining these production rates with mass quantities for the project that were developed as a part of the opinion of cost development yielded significant activity durations that were then incorporated into the overall schedule. Utility design timeframes experienced on other projects currently underway were also considered. Appropriate schedule contingencies were also applied to account for normal weather impacts, potential geological challenges (rock), and unforeseen conditions. The program schedule began in February 2018 with the development of this master plan. Subsequent to design of Phase 1, construction activities are expected to begin in the summer of 2020. Construction durations for each phase range from 18 to 24 months depending on the quantity of work to be performed and complexity of each Phase. To accelerate the work, the construction schedule for each phase overlaps the previous adjacent phase construction schedule by six months to one year. The overlap of the construction activities in each phase is subject to conduit installation being complete in the previous phase prior to allowing conduit installation activities to begin in the subsequent phase. This is done primarily to mitigate traffic impacts. There is an opportunity to compress the schedule further by splitting each phase up into two work areas, however, any further compression will be contingent on the utility company design schedules and easement acquisition timeframes. The final six months of the construction activity schedule for each phase is reserved for overhead infrastructure demolition. It is not expected that this will be a continuous construction activity. Experience with similar projects has shown that the coordination required with FPL, AT&T, and Comcast can be time consuming and they need to work sequentially rather than concurrently to remove facilities. Therefore, this activity requires a certain duration of time to be accomplished. Based on our opinion of schedule, all areas of the Village are anticipated to be converted underground by the end of 2025. Final pole removal is anticipated to be completed by the end of the first quarter in 2026. The schedule does contain time contingencies for normal weather impacts, rock conditions, and typical unforeseen conditions. It does not account for significant schedule impacts related to significant weather events that cause the utility owners to focus efforts on storm recovery rather than undergrounding. It also does not consider significant contractor issues related to litigation, bankruptcy, non-performance, and the like because these types of issues are impossible to predict. Risk Assessment Risks are involved with any project, and a project of this magnitude is no exception. These risks can impact the project schedule and/or the project costs. By identifying these risks ahead of time, steps can be taken to mitigate them. An assessment of known risks to budget and schedule, both in terms of the design phase and construction phase, was made in order to identify these risks and take steps to mitigate them. Traffic Management Plan Development A Transportation Management Plan (TMP) was developed to coordinate traffic impacts related to both the undergrounding program and other known significant infrastructure projects to minimize impacts to the residents and businesses. Based on the recommended phasing and the sequencing plan, Kimley-Horn assessed the potential traffic impacts from construction of each phase of the project. The TMP sets forth overall guiding principles, identified in Chapter 9, for use by the Village and affected contractors during the implementation of the undergrounding program. The TMP may evolve over time, but its current role is to assist in the development of the construction phasing plans, traffic control plans, and project specification documents, and to facilitate discussions between the Village, designers, utility owners, contractors, and other key stakeholders related to traffic impacts. It is a tool to better coordinate construction traffic impacts as specific permits are applied for by the construction community. Graphical TMP maps for each phase of the undergrounding program, along with general traffic control guidelines for the program, were developed and are contained in this master plan. Public Outreach Program Recommendations The undergrounding project in the Village of Key Biscayne will incorporate a Public Outreach Program to ensure that the community is informed on the process, the benefits, and costs. The Community Outreach Program is a critical part of the public education and transparency efforts. It will create a link between the engineering team, Village staff, elected leaders, the Undergrounding Task Force (UUTF), utility owners, Village residents, and the media. The program will engage and communicate with the community through presentations, print and electronic media, public meetings, and through a Speakers Bureau. Information and communications to the community should be made through a variety of mediums and be performed in a manner that is most suitable for the intended audience. For broad based messaging and project updates, the following methods should be employed: ƒ Project website ƒ Project Facebook page/Twitter postings ƒ Use of the social app, Nextdoor, to connect neighbors and the community ƒ Newsletters or postcards (electronic and printed direct mailers) ƒ Email blasts ƒ Public meetings (including live Tele-Town Hall meetings) ƒ Media releases ƒ Communications hotline (telephone) For messaging related to communicating how the project and individual phases may impact a particular resident or business owner, the communication should be tailored to the specific situation.

6 7VILLAGE OF KEY BISCAYNE UNDERGROUNDING OF UTILITIES — MASTER PLAN1.0 E X E C U T I V E S U M M A R Y Opinion of Probable Cost The master planning process included the development of a Conceptual Opinion of Probable Cost for the undergrounding program. The Village does not have an existing budget established for this project, therefore, there was a desire to evaluate and update the potential costs based on information obtained through the master planning process. A summary of total project costs, including contingency and inflation, is provided in the following table. Project costs should be tracked throughout the life of the program so that the opinions of cost for subsequent phases can be updated as actual expenditures are realized. This m
