DATE OF ACTION REQUEST: April 18, 2017

PRESENTER: Ms. Maribel Sanders

SUBJECT/TITLE: Request approval of a Proclamation recognizing May 2017 as "Mental Health Month" in Highlands County.

RECOMMENDED ACTION

Move approval of a Proclamation recognizing May 2017 as "Mental Health Month" in Highlands County.

Attachments: Mental Health Month Proclamation.docx

7 Proclamation

Whereas, according to the Florida Council for Community Mental Health, mental health issues have become one of America’s costliest illnesses particularly if left untreated. Some of the specific economic and social costs include lost productivity due to the absenteeism or unemployment of those suffering with mental illness and for family members caring for them, as well as contributing to costs associated with premature deaths, on the job accidents, unemployment, and crime; and

Whereas, in Highlands County, as noted in the Florida Department of Health Action Plan 2012- 2013, the percentage of adults reporting “good mental health” declined from 2007 to 2010 and the number reporting poor mental health increased. This is believed to be a direct result of our county’s lack of awareness, lack of resources, and ongoing fear and stigma associated with mental illness, and

Whereas, the death by suicide rate in Highlands County is higher than the overall State rate and the number of deaths is increasing; and

Whereas, Highlands County has been designated a Health Professional Shortage Area and a Medically Underserved Population by the federal government; and

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT PROCLAIMED that the Highlands County Board of County Commissioners, Highlands County, Florida, does hereby proclaim the month of May 2017 as

“MENTAL HEALTH MONTH” in the county of Highlands and calls upon our citizens to become more mindful of the issue of mental health, to become advocates for our county to receive additional resources, and to do their part to end the stigma associated with mental illness and the barriers to treatment.

Done and adopted this 18th day of April, 2017.

2017 LAW DAY PROCLAMATION

Whereas the American justice system is charged with upholding and protecting the rights, as well as the freedom and justice of all Americans, creating equality for all; and

Whereas Law Day is a day of public acknowledgement of our nation’s and Florida’s heritage of justice, liberty and equality under the law, a day to recognize and celebrate our justice system and the rule of law; and

Whereas the Law Day 2017 theme, “The 14th Amendment: Transforming American Democracy”, recognizes the inextricable link between the concept of equality of all before the law and the right to due process, and the challenges that remain in ensuring that all Americans are aware of these constitutional rights; and

Whereas we are all partners in ensuring justice for all; and

Whereas the legal system has a special and unique role in ensuring that all Americans are entitled to and receive equal protection of the law and to the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness; and

Whereas all Americans, as partners in ensuring justice for all, share a responsibility for promoting justice for all.

NOW THEREFORE, we, the Highlands County Board of Commissioners, do hereby proclaim Thursday, May 4, 2017, as Law Day in Highlands County.

We urge all community residents, school administrators, teachers and students, business and civic leaders, legal professionals, and media of Highlands County to support this national day and use this occasion to preserve and strengthen the rule of law.

040417REG HIGHLANDS COUNTY COUNTY COMMISSION AGENDA ITEM

DATE OF ACTION REQUEST: April 18, 2017

PRESENTER: W. Kyle Green, Road and Bridge Superintendent

SUBJECT/TITLE: Request approval of State of Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) railroad reimbursement agreement on DeSoto Road and a Resolution authorizing the Board Chairman to execute attached agreement.

STATEMENT OF ISSUE

Attached for your approval and execution is a new Railroad Reimbursement Agreement between Highlands County and the State of Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), jointly with South Central Florida Express, Inc., for the Grade Crossing Traffic Control Devices on Desoto Road. Also included is a Resolution authorizing the Chairman to sign for this Agreement.

There is currently an existing 3 party agreement between Seaboard Coast Line Railroad Company, State of Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) and Highlands County, dated July 7, 1981. At the time of this agreement, only flashing lights were installed. The new agreement includes an upgrade from a Class I (no gates) to a Class III (with gates). This agreement commits the cost of operation and maintenance to be shared 50% by Highlands County and 50% by the railroad. Currently, Highlands County is paying $1,193.00 based on the current schedule of annual cost. This would increase Highlands County’s participation to $1,800.00 annually.

Should the County be willing to participate in this very important safety upgrade, the County will need to execute a new 3 party agreement (attached) that shows the current Railroad Company (South Central Florida Express), Highlands County and State of Florida Department of Transportation.

The Board Attorney has reviewed and approved this Agreement.

RECOMMENDED ACTION

Move to approve State of Florida Department of Transportation railroad reimbursement agreement and Resolution, and authorize the Board Chairman to execute attached agreement.

FISCAL IMPACT

The fiscal impact is an increase of $607.00 annually, which will be budgeted by the Road and Bridge Department.

SUBJECT/TITLE: A Resolution of the Board of County Commissioners of Highlands County, Florida, extending a temporary cessation of accepting and approving applications for installation of small cell and distributed antenna system (das) structures in road rights-of-way pending revision of the code of ordinances, Highlands County, Florida, to properly address the siting and installation of these structures in road rights-of-way; providing for severability and an effective date.

STATEMENT OF ISSUE

Industry and technological changes and advances have resulted in alternative methods of delivery of wireless communications services generally known as “small cell” and “distributed antennae systems” (DAS) which involve the placement of much shorter, but more numerous poles. The County’s road rights-of-way are a limited resource, already facing crowding in certain areas, and that resource must be properly managed both for current utility needs and for planned or expected future utility expansion, maintenance, and safety needs. The current Code provisions do not sufficiently address this new technology and until the Code is revised the County should not accept or approve applications for installation of those facilities in road rights-of-way. The Florida legislature is currently considering amendments to Florida Statutes pertaining to placement of wireless facilities in public road rights-of-way and the Federal Communications Commission is considering placement of wireless facilities in public road rights-of-way.

RECOMMENDED ACTION

Move to approve the Resolution of the Board of County Commissioners of Highlands County, Florida, extending a temporary cessation of accepting and approving applications for installation of small cell and distributed antenna system (das) structures in road rights-of-way pending revision of the code of ordinances, Highlands County, Florida, to properly address the siting and installation of these structures in road rights-of-way; providing for severability and an effective date

A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF HIGHLANDS COUNTY, FLORIDA, EXTENDING A TEMPORARY CESSATION OF ACCEPTING AND APPROVING APPLICATIONS FOR INSTALLATION OF SMALL CELL AND DISTRIBUTED ANTENNA SYSTEM (DAS) STRUCTURES IN ROAD RIGHTS-OF-WAY PENDING REVISION OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES, HIGHLANDS COUNTY, FLORIDA, TO PROPERLY ADDRESS THE SITING AND INSTALLATION OF THESE STRUCTURES IN ROAD RIGHTS-OF- WAY; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE.

WHEREAS, Highlands County owns and/or controls, and manages lands designated as road rights-of-way; and

WHEREAS, traditionally governmental road rights-of-way have been utilized for, among other uses, the placement of public and private utility systems and structures so as to facilitate the delivery of utility services and maintenance of utility systems; and

WHEREAS, Sections 12.04.215 and 12.08.135 of the Code of Ordinances, Highlands County, Florida (hereinafter referred to as the “Code”) and other provisions of the Code contain the County’s current Code regulatory provisions for permitting wireless communications facilities in County road rights-of-way; and

WHEREAS, industry and technological changes and advances have resulted in alternative methods of delivery of wireless communications services generally known as "small cell" and "distributed antennae systems" (DAS) which involve the placement of much shorter, but more numerous poles and related infrastructure, to provide such services to residential and other areas where tower placement is not feasible due to regulatory or other restrictions; and

WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners for Highlands County (the Board) finds that the County's road rights-of-way are a limited resource, already facing crowding in certain areas, and that this vital resource must be properly managed both for current utility needs and for planned or expected future road and utility expansion, maintenance, and safety needs; and

WHEREAS, the Board finds that its current Code provisions do not sufficiently address this new technology and that until the Code is revised so as to properly create regulations and standards to address applications to utilize the County's road rights-of-way for the installation of small cell and DAS facilities, the County should not accept or approve applications for such uses in road rights-of-way; and

WHEREAS, the Florida legislature is currently considering amendments to Florida Statutes pertaining to placement of wireless facilities in public rights-of-way; and

WHEREAS, the Federal Communications Commission is considering placement of wireless facilities in public road rights-of-way; and

WHEREAS, Resolution 16-17-29 adopted by the Board on December 6, 2016, is of no further force or effect after midnight on April 30, 3017; and

WHEREAS, the Board needs additional time to amend the Code for the purposes stated herein. 38 1

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners of Highlands County, Florida, that:

1. The County Engineering Department and Development Services Department shall cease acceptance of applications for site plan approval, utility permits, and building permits to construct or install any wireless small cell or DAS communications system in the County's road rights-of-way until the Board adopts amendments to the Code to amend the regulations and standards that will apply to such facilities or until midnight, June 30, 2017, or until the Board otherwise rescinds this Resolution, whichever is first to occur.

2. Based upon the requirements of Section 12.08.135 of the Code, all pending applications site plan approval, utility permits, and building permits to construct or install any wireless small cell or DAS communications system in the County's road rights-of-way shall be denied and returned to the applicants.

3. The County Administrator and County Attorney are hereby directed to work diligently to develop such ordinances as may be required to ensure that the Code properly regulates small cell and DAS facilities in County road rights-of-way, including application, installation, maintenance, and removal requirements, so as to facilitate the provision of effective wireless communications services to the County's citizens and businesses, while also ensuring the safety, aesthetic, financial, and infrastructure planning needs of the County.

4. The sections, subsections, paragraphs, sentences, clauses and phrases of this Resolution are severable, and if any phrase, clause, sentence, paragraph, subsection or section of this Resolution shall be declared invalid, unconstitutional or unenforceable by the valid judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, unconstitutionality or unenforceability shall not affect any of the remaining phrases, clauses, sentences, paragraphs, subsections, and sections of this Resolution.

5. This Resolution shall take effect immediately upon its adoption

Done and adopted by the Highlands County Board of County Commissioners this ____ day of April, 2017, in Sebring, Highlands County, Florida.

PRESENTER: Benjamin A. Dunn, Director, Development Services Department

SUBJECT/TITLE: Request the reallocation of $18,000 from Account 53413 (Central Florida Regional Planning Council (CFRPC) account) for the Water Supply Facilities Plan to a new project for updating Airport Zoning Regulations and Applications per new statutory requirements.

STATEMENT OF ISSUE

Thirty-two thousand dollars is budgeted in Account 53413 for the CFRPC to prepare and facilitate the adoption of the Highlands County Water Supply Facilities Plan. This work project has been completed in-house by planning staff. The Planning Department would like the Board of County Commissioners to consider the reallocation of $18,000 from Account 53413 to a new project for amending the Airport Zoning Regulations and Applications per new statutory requirements.

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Aviation and Spaceport Office (ASO) sent a letter explaining there have been recent amendments to Airport Zoning, Chapter 333, Florida Statutes (F.S.). Based upon these changes, it is the responsibility of the political subdivisions with airport zoning authority to provide copies of amended Airport Zoning Regulations and Airport Zoning Permit Applications to the FDOT ASO. Political subdivisions with airport zoning authority must adopt, administer and enforce airport zoning regulations for lands underlying Part 77 Airport surfaces. These are airports which an obstruction/structure may be constructed or altered which under lies any above ground surface of the airport, pursuant to F.S. All statutory requirements must be submitted to the FDOT ASO by July, 1, 2017. Failure to comply may impact the airport zoning permit process, invalidate permits, and other repercussions pursuant to Chapter 333, F.S.

The Planning Department would like to use the reallocated funds to hire a consultant from our library of consultants. The consultant will specialize in aviation and have the expertise to produce a final work product.

RECOMMENDED ACTION

Move to approve the reallocation of $18,000 from Account 53413 (Central Florida Regional Planning Council account) for the Water Supply Facilities Plan to a new project for updating Airport Zoning Regulations and Applications per the new statutory requirements.

FISCAL IMPACT

No fiscal impact. This is a reallocation of $18,000 from Account 53413 which has a total of $32,000. If the reallocation request is approved, $14,000 will remain in Account 53413. 44 Attachments: Memo to FACA Members re FDOT Airport Zoning Regulations.pdf

TO: POLITICAL SUBDIVISIONS WITH AIRPORT ZONING AUTHORITY

SUBJECT: STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS FOR SUBMITTAL OF AIRPORT ZONING PERMIT APPLICATIONS AND AMENDED AIRPORT ZONING REGULATIONS TO THE FDOT AVIATION OFFICE (ASO) AND AIRPORT ZONING REGULATIONS FOR LANDS UNDERLYING PART 77 AIRPORT SURFACES

The following information is provided to inform and assist Airport Zoning Authorities to identify and comply with statutory requirements for submittal of airport zoning applications and airport zoning regulations to the ASO, and the development of airport zoning regulations for local government lands underlying Part 77 Airport Surfaces.

If you have received this Notice and are not the local government Airport Zoning authority please forward it immediately to the appropriate authority/department. If this Notice was not directed to the correct agency/department for Airport Zoning in your jurisdiction please provide us with the correct person, address and phone number. Prompt compliance with the following is recommended.

Since the amendment to Chapter 333, F.S. has changed a significant number of provisions of the statute almost every existing airport zoning regulation will require modifications which must conform to the changes in Chapter 333, F.S. (2016) by July 1, 2017.

There appears to be a misunderstanding on the part of political subdivisions with airport zoning authority regarding their responsibility to provide copies of Airport Zoning Permit Applications and Amended Airport Zoning Regulations to the FDOT Aviation and Spaceport Office (ASO). Also, there is an apparent failure of zoning authorities to adopt, administer and enforce airport zoning regulations for lands underlying Part 77 Airport surfaces. Failure to comply with these requirements may adversely impact your airport zoning permit process by causing delays, invalidating permits, subject the permitting process to appeals and judicial review and other penalties pursuant to Chapter 333, F.S.

Due to the recent (July 1, 2016) amendment of Chapter 333, Florida Statutes (F.S.), Airport Zoning, there have been changes to the statute with regard to the following: 1) statutory requirement for political subdivisions to provide a copy of airport zoning permit applications to the ASO for review; 2) statutory requirement for political subdivisions to provide a copy of amended airport zoning regulations to the ASO upon adoption; and 3) the statutory requirement to enter into either an interlocal agreement or joint zoning board when one of two or more political subdivisions have land which underlies a Part 77 airport surface of an adjacent airport owned by another political subdivision. 47

www.dot.state.fl.us

Submission of Airport Zoning Permit Applications to ASO

The current version of Section 333.025(4), Florida Statutes (2016), Airport Zoning (effective July 1, 2016) has amended the Airport Zoning Permit Application submission requirements and provides, in part, the following:

…….Upon receipt of a complete permit application, the local government shall provide a copy of the application to the department's aviation office by certified mail, return receipt requested, or by a delivery service that provides a receipt evidencing delivery. To evaluate technical consistency with this subsection, the department shall have a 15-day review period following receipt of the application, which must run concurrently with the local government permitting process….

The significant change in the amended statute is that the zoning authority, instead of the applicant, must send the complete application to the ASO which has 15 days to review it.

To facilitate receipt and handling of zoning permit applications the ASO has agreed to accept electronic copies of applications by email to [email protected] in lieu of certified mail, return receipt requested. If a copy of the permit application is not sent to this email address then the local government must comply with the certified mail requirements. Hard copies of zoning permit applications should be forwarded to the ASO at the address below. If sending by email we suggest that the political subdivision obtain an email delivery receipt for their records.

In contrast, the former version of Section 333.07(2) (2015), Florida Statutes, Airport Zoning (pre-2016) provides, in part, the following, which may be incorporated in existing airport zoning regulations: At the time of filing the application, the applicant shall forward to the department by certified mail, return receipt requested, a copy of the application. The department shall have 45 days from receipt of the application to comment and to provide its comments or waiver of that right to the applicant and the board of adjustment. The department shall include its explanation for any objections stated in its comments. If the department fails to provide its comments within 45 days of receipt of the application, its right to comment is waived. The board of adjustment may proceed with its consideration of the application only upon the receipt of the department’s comments or waiver of that right as demonstrated by the filing of a copy of the return receipt with the board. Noncompliance with this section shall be grounds to appeal pursuant to s. 333.08 and to apply for judicial relief pursuant to s. 333.11………

48 (b) The Department of Transportation shall have the authority to appeal any variance granted under this chapter pursuant to s. 333.08, and to apply for judicial relief pursuant to s. 333.11.

Which statutory process above (F.S. 333.025(4) (2016) or F.S. 333.07(02)(2015)) is applicable we leave to the determination of the zoning authority and its legal counsel. However, both sections require submission to the ASO and failure to do so could delay or adversely impact the permitting process for proposed construction or alteration as set forth above. As we have noted the difference in submission requirements is by whom and when. However, as provided by the amended statute, F.S. 333.025(4) took effect on July 1, 2016 and therefore went into effect IMMEDIATELY.

Review of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) website discloses that within a recent 7 day period in Florida 1,365 Determinations have been issued and not one airport permit application has been sent to the ASO. This creates potential issues for zoning authorities and their permittees and should be addressed as soon as possible.

Submission of Amended Airport Zoning Regulations to ASO

Section 333.03(3), FS requires political subdivisions having airport zoning responsibility to submit copies of their amended airport zoning regulations to the FDOT ASO within 30 days of adoption. The ASO has established another email address, [email protected] to be used to submit the amended airport zoning regulations to the ASO and to submit questions. Existing airport zoning regulations which require amendment in accordance with Section 333.03(3), FS “…shall be amended to conform to the requirements of this chapter by JULY 1, 2017”.

Zoning for Lands underlying Part 77 Airport Surfaces

Consistent with prior law Section 333.03(1)(b), F.S., provides a continuing requirement for political subdivisions, in specific circumstances (having lands underlying Part 77 airport surfaces), to adopt, administer and enforce airport protection and airport land use compatibility zoning regulations as follows:

(1)(b) If an airport is owned or controlled by a political subdivision and if any other political subdivision has land upon which an obstruction may be constructed or altered which underlies any surface of the airport as provided in 14 C.F.R. part 77, subpart C, the political subdivisions shall either: 1. By interlocal agreement, adopt, administer, and enforce a set of airport protection zoning regulations; or 2. By ordinance, regulation, or resolution duly adopted, create a joint airport protection zoning board that shall adopt, administer, and enforce a set of airport protection zoning regulations.

In addition, Section 333.03(2), FS provides: “In the manner provided in subsection (1), political subdivisions shall adopt, administer, and enforce airport land use compatibility zoning regulations.” 49

In accordance with the foregoing statutory sections multiple political subdivisions, under the specified circumstances, must by interlocal agreement or joint zoning board adopt, administer and enforce a set of airport protection and airport land use compatibility zoning regulations and submit a copy to the FDOT ASO.

Also, please note that the ASO website (www.fdot.gov/aviation) has a NEWS article on these requirements and the site has been upgraded with new articles, and links to resource documents including a recording of the last webinar with the expanded PowerPoint presentation, and a Suggested Zoning Regulation Checklist.

If anyone has any questions regarding the foregoing please contact me by the appropriate email address above. Your immediate consideration of these matters is requested.

1 CIRCUIT 10 BEHAVIORAL HEALTH TRANSPORTATION PLAN

Introduction In accordance with the Florida Mental Health Act, the Hal S. Marchman Alcohol and Other Drug Services Act of 1993, and Senate Bill 12, a plan has been developed to organize a centralized system for acute care services. This plan has been developed by community stakeholders listed on page two, the Circuit 10 - Baker Act/Marchman Act Advisory Committee. This transportation plan requires approval by the Polk County Board of County Commissioners, Highlands County Board of County Commissioners, Hardee County Board of County Commissioners. Upon approval this document will serve as the transportation plan for Florida’s 10th Circuit per legislative intent. The intent of this plan is: 1. An arrangement centralizing and improving the provision of services within each county, which may include exceptions to the requirement for transportation to the nearest receiving facility. 2. An arrangement by which a facility may provide, in addition to required psychiatric and addiction services, an environment and services which are uniquely tailored to the needs of an identified group of persons with special needs, such as persons with hearing impairments or visual impairments, or elderly persons with physical frailties; or 3. A specialized transportation system that provides an efficient and humane method of transporting patients to receiving facilities, among receiving facilities, and to treatment facilities.

Purpose The Circuit 10 Transportation Plan has been successfully implemented. In the continued best interest of persons in need of public mental healthcare in Circuit 10 it is now agreed that a renewal of the plan will continue the successful established centralized Baker Act/Marchman Act system, known as the Circuit 10 Behavioral Transportation Plan. The Plan will insure that individuals on an involuntary Baker Act/Marchman Act will obtain immediate access to acute care services and will reduce the need for inter-hospital transfers for psychiatric and addiction services. Coordination of services among providers in the Circuit 10 area will continue to meet individual needs. The Plan calls for all law enforcement agencies in the Circuit 10 area to transport: 1. Adults on an involuntary Baker Act to the nearest receiving facility, as follows; a. Lakeland Regional Health, b. Winter Haven Hospital BayCare, c. Peace River Center Crisis Stabilization Unit (CSU) Bartow, Non-Medical, d. Peace River Center Crisis Stabilization Unit (CSU) Lakeland, Non-Medical, e. Lake Wales Medical Center, age 60 years or older. f. Florida Hospital, Lake Placid, age 55 years or older. 2. Adults on an involuntary Marchman Act to Tri-County Human Services, Detox Center, Bartow. 3. Youth under the age of 18 years on an involuntary Baker Act to the nearest receiving facility, as follows; a. Peace River Center Crisis Stabilization Unit (CSU) Bartow, Non-Medical, b. Peace River Center Crisis Stabilization Unit (CSU) Lakeland, Non-Medical, c. Lakeland Regional Health Hospital, age 10 years or older. 4. Youth under the age of 18 years on an involuntary Marchman Act to ACTS-Tampa. 106

2 Baker Act / Marchman Act Advisory Committee The purpose of the Baker Act/Marchman Act Advisory Committee is to discuss the operations of the Circuit 10 Transportation Plan.

5 HIGHLANDS COUNTY COUNTY COMMISSION AGENDA ITEM

DATE OF ACTION REQUEST: April 18, 2017

PRESENTER: Clinton Howerton, Jr., P.E., County Engineer

SUBJECT/TITLE: Request Approval for a Purchase Agreement #PA444 between Highlands County Board of County Commissioners and Cartegraph Systems, Inc. for the data gathering and implementation of the County’s roadway sign inventory as mandated by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) in 2009 regarding sign retro-reflectivity and Waive the formal bid process as listed in the Board’s Purchasing Manual in (Section 60.20) outside purchases over $25,000.

STATEMENT OF ISSUE

In the current FY 16-17 Budget, the Board approved Project #16007, County Roadway Sign Inventory. The County Engineering Department is in the process of implementing the Cartegraph system for work orders and drainage problems. As part of the implementation process and to meet the FHWA standards for sign retro-reflectivity; the County Engineer is submitting a Purchase Agreement with Cartegraph for the data gathering and implementation of the County’s roadway sign inventory in the amount of $282,400.00.The Engineering Department reached out to a company in August 2016 to ask about the cost of gathering the sign data and importing that data into the Cartegraph System. What staff discovered by getting the quote was that the sign gathering was slightly cheaper but the company was unable to import the information into the Cartegraph System for effective use. That would be an additional cost that was not budgeted in this project. The County Engineer inquired from Cartegraph if it would be possible to reduce the overall project costs by contracting directly with them to provide the required data in a usable format to meet our needs. In a letter received from Cartegraph dated March 28, 2017, Chris Liske, Account Executive, stated that based on their company’s experience customers who opted to have a 3rd party vendor gather the sign data have had to invest additional dollars to have Cartegraph properly upload and configure the asset inventory data into the Cartegraph OMS software. Cartegraph is an existing vendor with Highlands County and will be using this data to complement our existing database.

If the Board decides to approve the Purchasing Agreement with Cartegraph the company will collect the sign inventory including information on the sign asset number, roadway and location, sign classification, sign-type/message, offset distance, sign height, sign mount height, sign mount type, panel condition as well as photographs of the signs. Once the data is gathered Cartegraph will then load it into a database and that database will be integrated into the current system that Engineering and Traffic Operations will be using. By having the data in a database, it will allow the Traffic Operations staff to inventory, track, and evaluate the signs in the county that will need to be replaced every year. That will help determine future replacement costs and will aid in the budgeting process. The County Attorney has reviewed the contract and has approved the contents.

RECOMMENDED ACTION 110 Move to waive the sealed bid process (Sections 60.20) contained within the Board’s Purchasing Policy; and approve Purchase Agreement #PA444 between Highlands County Board of County Commissioners and Cartegraph System, Inc. for County Project No. 16007, in the amount of $282,400.00.

FISCAL IMPACT

No fiscal impact to Fund 151 (Local Gov’t Infrastructure Surtax) or the overall budget for FY 16-17. The funding for this project (16007) in the amount of $282,000 was included in the Adopted Budget and approved by the Board on September 20, 2016.

Clinton Howerton Jr. Highlands County 590 South Commerce Avenue Sebring, FL 33870

RE: Cartegraph Data Services, #PA444

Mr. Howerton,

Thank you for your continued interest in Cartegraph to support the County’s asset management and data inventory needs. The following is a summary of the proposed Cartegraph purchase agreement, PA#444 for Data Collection Services to complete a Sign Inventory and configuration of this data in Cartegraph OMS. While the County’s current priority is on inventorying all sign assets for management within the County’s current Cartegraph OMS system, our approach will allow data collection to be also extended to other right-of-way assets by the County or Cartegraph if needed. The following is an overview of our data collection process, value summary, and why Cartegraph is uniquely qualified to support Highlands County’s goals for a sign inventory and advanced asset management.

We understand local governments invest considerable time and money in their assets and the technology used to manage them. Good data forms the basis of an asset management approach that can boost efficiency, improve decision making, and facilitates the forecasting of time and money needed to maintain your organization’s asset infrastructure. The process starts with gathering data to build an inventory of every asset in your County, including location, pertinent attribute information, value, and condition. Good data will reveal the severity and extent of defects, will help understand the impact of failure and when it is most cost effective to inspect, repair, or replace any given asset. Data generated via a comprehensive inventory, mapping, and assessment process will provide the County an accurate inventory that serves as the foundation of a sound asset management strategy.

112

Cartegraph Asset Management 1 3/28/17 Cartegraph Data Collection Services offer the most accurate, efficient, and cost-effective approach to building or enhancing your asset inventory. Our data collection service will help you identify, prioritize, and gather essential data immediately so it be can be put to use before the information becomes outdated. Our Data Collection team combines advanced technology and superior know-how to deliver data that’s accurate and detailed based on your inventory needs. We utilize a 4-step process in all our collection projects that includes Planning, Collection, Optimization, and Delivery to ensure Highlands County can be begin effectively managing its assets in your Cartegraph OMS system right away.

Our mobile data collection vehicles are equipped with state-of-the-art 360 degree street level image capture technology capable of collecting high-resolution, panoramic video images of all above ground assets along street right-of-ways. This mobile mapping system gives us the ability to inventory assets efficiently and with a high-level of accuracy. Visual asset inspections and related information is also available for collection to support capture of the condition and overall health of the inventoried assets if the County chooses. Once the data is collected our experienced technicians work on processing and optimizing the data so it will be transferred directly into the County’s Cartegraph OMS Asset Management application. We ensure all location, MUTCD codes and other attribute information, has gone through our quality control processes and is appropriately configured in Cartegraph OMS.

Some additional key points to consider when choosing Cartegraph’s for the County’s inventory and asset management needs are as follows:

• Cartegraph offers a turnkey solution where we oversee every step and task of the project guarantee that the County is successful in having a complete and updated location referenced sign inventory in the County’s OMS database.

• Cartegraph is uniquely qualified to make sure all data regarding sign inventory are accurate and are properly uploaded in to the County’s OMS database because Cartegraph has engineers and technicians on staff that who are dedicated to performing these duties for our OMS customers across the nation.

• While other vendors may claim that they can do similar work, no vendor other than Cartegraph can guarantee to deliver an accurate and fully integrated sign inventory in the County’s OMS database and software solution.

• Based on our past experience, customers who opted to have 3rd party vendors perform similar work have later need to invest additional dollars so that Cartegraph staff can properly upload and configure the asset inventory data into the customers Cartegraph OMS software solution. The County can proactively avoid such pitfalls by continuing to work with Cartegraph.

• The 360-degree panoramic imagery that will be collected as part of this project has quality that is far superior than the current industry standard. Our panoramic imagery is collected at an interval of every 5 meters (~16.4 feet) and can be used for asset data extraction with global accuracy of under 4 inches with relative accuracy of under 0.4 inches. This technology offers location accuracy similar to manual (boots on the ground) location collection for a fraction of the price and time.

113

Cartegraph Asset Management 2 3/28/17 • The 360-degree street level spherical imagery will be accessible to the County via cloud based software for use throughout the County for visualization and other data extraction needs. This not only benefits Public Works, but would be very beneficial to your municipal partners, County Assessment, Public Safety, Emergency Management, and others.

• As Cartegraph customers, the County can count on Cartegraph technical support to be available to help resolve any issues related to using the data in your Cartegraph OMS asset management software.

In summary, Cartegraph has extensive background in providing data Collection, and asset management services. As the sole source developer of the County’s chosen Cartegraph asset management solution, we are best suited for supporting your data collection and asset management program needs. It is with this experience, our understanding of the County’s current Cartegraph software, and with our teams past history in performing previous asset data collections that we are confident that the proposed the collection services will achieve the County’s desired goals. Highlands County can be assured of Cartegraph’s commitment to provide a quality deliverable for the County’s asset inventory and asset management needs.

As your Cartegraph Account Executive, I will serve as your primary point of contact for answering any questions, finalizing the contract, and kicking of the project when the County is ready. On behalf of my entire organization, I’d like to thank you for choosing Cartegraph. We look forward to continuing our work together.

Sincerely,

Chris Liske Account Executive (651) 587-3125 Mobile Email: [email protected] Website: www.cartegraph.com
