AGENDA ITEM WORDING: Approval of Contract Amendment 41 with Charley Toppino &
Sons, Inc. to update the federal language for a FDOT Local Agency Program project for the
construction of the Big Pine Water Observation Platform and Reynolds St. Pier improvements.
ITEM BACKGROUND: In July 2013, Monroe County entered into a Local Agency Program
(LAP) agreement with FDOT to design and construct an observation platform at Big Pine
Community Park and improvements to the Reynolds Street Pier at Clarence Higgs Beach Park. This
request is for approval of Construction Contract Amendment 41 with Charley Toppino & Sons, Inc.
to update the federal contract language to current Wage Rates and Standard Federal Equal
Employment Opportunity Construction Contract Specifications as required by FDOT.
PREVIOUS RELEVANT BOCC ACTION: On July 17, 2013, the BOCC approved a Local
Agency Program Agreement with FDOT for the construction of various Scenic Highway Overlooks.
On August 20, 2014, the BOCC approved a contract with Stantec Consulting Services for the design
and permitting of an observation platform at Big Pine Park and improvements to the Reynolds Street
Pier in Key West. On May 17, 2017, the BOCC approved the advertisement of an RFP for a FDOT
Local Agency Program project for the construction of the Big Pine Water Observation Platform and
Reynolds St. Pier improvements. On June 21, 2017, the BOCC granted approval to advertise an RFQ
for Construction Engineering and Inspection (CEI) services. On January 17, 2018, the BOCC
approved negotiating a contract with WSP USA Inc., the highest ranked respondent, for
Construction Engineering and Inspection (CEI) Services for Scenic Highway Overlooks at the Big
Pine Water Observation Platform and Reynolds Street Pier. On March 21, 2018, the BOCC
approved to award the bid and a contract to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder, Charley
Toppino & Sons, Inc., for $762,854.75 for a FDOT Local Agency Program project for the
construction of the Big Pine Water Observation Platform and Reynolds St. Pier improvements.

AMENDMENT A
SECTION 01760
LAP DIVISION 1 SPECIFICATIONS
(REV 4- 19 -17) (7 -17)
Construction Checklist Specifications From Department of Transportation
Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction
The following excerpts from the Standard Specifications and Special Provisions are provided for
use in LAP Specifications as needed in accordance with the Local Agency Program Checklist for
Construction Contracts (Phase 58) — Federal and State Requirements (525- 070 -44)
§ 60 -4.3 Equal opportunity clauses.
(a) The equal opportunity clause published at 41 CFR 60- 1.4(a) of this chapter is required to be
included in, and is part of, all nonexempt Federal contracts and subcontracts, including
construction contracts and subcontracts. The equal opportunity clause published at 41 CFR 60-
1.4(b) is required to be included in, and is a part of, all nonexempt federally assisted construction
contracts and subcontracts. In addition to the clauses described above, all Federal contracting
officers, all applicants and all nonconstruction contractors, as applicable, shall include the
specifications set forth in this section in all Federal and federally assisted construction contracts
in excess of $10,000 to be performed in geographical areas designated by the Director pursuant
to § 60 -4.6 of this part and in construction subcontracts in excess of $10,000 necessary in whole
or in part to the performance of nonconstruction Federal contracts and subcontracts covered
under the Executive order.
Standard Federal Equal Employment Opportunity Construction Contract Specifications
(Executive Order 11246)
1. As used in these specifications:
a. "Covered area" means the geographical area described in the solicitation from
which this contract resulted;
b. "Director" means Director, Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs,
United States Department of Labor, or any person to whom the Director delegates
authority;
c. "Employer identification number" means the Federal Social Security number
used on the Employer's Quarterly Federal Tax Return, U.S. Treasury Department
Form 941.
d. "Minority" includes:
(i) Black (all persons having origins in any of the Black African racial
groups not of Hispanic origin);
Page 3 of 14
BIG PINE WATER OBSERVATION PLATFORM AND REYNOLDS ST. PIER
(ii) Hispanic (all persons of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central or
South American or other Spanish Culture or origin, regardless of race);
(iii) Asian and Pacific Islander (all persons having origins in any of the
original peoples of the Far East, Southeast Asia, the Indian Subcontinent,
or the Pacific Islands); and
(iv) American Indian or Alaskan Native (all persons having origins in any
of the original peoples of North America and maintaining identifiable
tribal affiliations through membership and participation or community
identification).
2. Whenever the Contractor, or any Subcontractor at any tier, subcontracts a portion of
the work involving any construction trade, it shall physically include in each subcontract
in excess of $10,000 the provisions of these specifications and the Notice which contains
the applicable goals for minority and female participation and which is set forth in the
solicitations from which this contract resulted.
3. If the Contractor is participating (pursuant to 41 CFR 60 -4.5) in a Hometown Plan
approved by the U.S. Department of Labor in the covered area either individually or
through an association, its affirmative action obligations on all work in the Plan area
(including goals and timetables) shall be in accordance with that Plan for those trades
which have unions participating in the Plan. Contractors must be able to demonstrate
their participation in and compliance with the provisions of any such Hometown Plan.
Each Contractor or Subcontractor participating in an approved Plan is individually
required to comply with its obligations under the EEO clause, and to make a good faith
effort to achieve each goal under the Plan in each trade in which it has employees. The
overall good faith performance by other Contractors or Subcontractors toward a goal in
an approved Plan does not excuse any covered Contractor's or Subcontractor's failure to
take good faith efforts to achieve the Plan goals and timetables.
4. The Contractor shall implement the specific affirmative action standards provided in
paragraphs 7 a through p of these specifications. The goals set forth in the solicitation
from which this contract resulted are expressed as percentages of the total hours of
employment and training of minority and female utilization the Contractor should
reasonably be able to achieve in each construction trade in which it has employees in the
covered area. Covered Construction contractors performing construction work in
geographical areas where they do not have a Federal or federally assisted constuction
contract shall apply the minority and female goals established for the geographical area
where the work is being performed. Goals are published periodically in the Federal
Register in notice form, and such notices may be obtained from any Office of Federal
Contract Compliance Programs office or from Federal procurement contracting officers.
Page 4 of 14
BIG PINE WATER OBSERVATION PLATFORM AND REYNOLDS ST. PIER
The Contractor is expected to make substantially uniform progress in meeting its goals in
each craft during the period specified.
5. Neither the provisions of any collective bargaining agreement, nor the failure by a
union with whom the Contractor has a collective bargaining agreement, to refer either
minorities or women shall excuse the Contractor's obligations under these specifications,
Executive Order 11246, or the regulations promulgated pursuant thereto.
6. In order for the nonworking training hours of apprentices and trainees to be counted in
meeting the goals, such apprentices and trainees must be employed by the Contractor
during the training period, and the Contractor must have made a commitment to employ
the apprentices and trainees at the completion of their training, subject to the availability
of employment opportunities. Trainees must be trained pursuant to training programs
approved by the U.S. Department of Labor.
7. The Contractor shall take specific affirmative actions to ensure equal employment
opportunity. The evaluation of the Contractor's compliance with these specifications shall
be based upon its effort to achieve maximum results from its actions. The Contractor
shall document these efforts fully, and shall implement affirmative action steps at least as
extensive as the following:
a. Ensure and maintain a working environment free of harassment, intimidation,
and coercion at all sites, and in all facilities at which the Contractor's employees
are assigned to work. The Contractor, where possible, will assign two or more
women to each construction project. The Contractor shall specifically ensure that
all foremen, superintendents, and other on -site supervisory personnel are aware of
and carry out the Contractor's obligation to maintain such a working environment,
with specific attention to minority or female individuals working at such sites or
in such facilities.
b. Establish and maintain a current list of minority and female recruitment
sources, provide written notification to minority and female recruitment sources
and to community organizations when the Contractor or its unions have
employment opportunities available, and maintain a record of the organizations'
responses.
c. Maintain a current file of the names, addresses and telephone numbers of each
minority and female off -the- street applicant and minority or female referral from
a union, a recruitment source or community organization and of what action was
taken with respect to each such individual. If such individual was sent to the
union hiring hall for referral and was not referred back to the Contractor by the
union or, if referred, not employed by the Contractor, this shall be documented in
Page 5 of 14
BIG PINE WATER OBSERVATION PLATFORM AND REYNOLDS ST. PIER
the file with the reason therefor, along with whatever additional actions the
Contractor may have taken.
d. Provide immediate written notification to the Director when the union or
unions with which the Contractor has a collective bargaining agreement has not
referred to the Contractor a minority person or woman sent by the Contractor, or
when the Contractor has other information that the union referral process has
impeded the Contractor's efforts to meet its obligations.
e. Develop on- the -job training opportunities and /or participate in training
programs for the area which expressly include minorities and women, including
upgrading programs and apprenticeship and trainee programs relevant to the
Contractor's employment needs, especially those programs funded or approved by
the Department of Labor. The Contractor shall provide notice of these programs
to the sources compiled under 7b above.
f. Disseminate the Contractor's EEO policy by providing notice of the policy to
unions and training programs and requesting their cooperation in assisting the
Contractor in meeting its EEO obligations; by including it in any policy manual
and collective bargaining agreement; by publicizing it in the company newpaper,
annual report, etc.; by specific review of the policy with all management
personnel and with all minority and female employees at least once a year; and by
posting the company EEO policy on bulletin boards accessible to all employees at
each location where construction work is performed.
g. Review, at least annually, the company's EEO policy and affirmative action
obligations under these specifications with all employees having any
responsibility for hiring, assignment, layoff, termination or other employment
decisions including specific review of these items with onsite supervisory
personnel such as Superintendents, General Foremen, etc., prior to the initiation
of construction work at any job site. A written record shall be made and
maintained identifying the time and place of these meetings, persons attending,
subject matter discussed, and disposition of the subject matter.
h. Disseminate the Contractor's EEO policy externally by including it in any
advertising in the news media, specifically including minority and female news
media, and providing written notification to and discussing the Contractor's EEO
policy with other Contractors and Subcontractors with whom the Contractor does
or anticipates doing business.
i. Direct its recruitment efforts, both oral and written, to minority, female and
community organizations, to schools with minority and female students and to
minority and female recruitment and training organizations serving the
Page 6 of 14
BIG PINE WATER OBSERVATION PLATFORM AND REYNOLDS ST. PIER
Contractor's recruitment area and employment needs. Not later than one month
prior to the date for the acceptance of applications for apprenticeship or other
training by any recruitment source, the Contractor shall send written notification
to organizations such as the above, describing the openings, screening procedures,
and tests to be used in the selection process.
j. Encourage present minority and female employees to recruit other minority
persons and women and, where reasonable, provide after school, summer and
vacation employment to minority and female youth both on the site and in other
areas of a Contractor's work force.
k. Validate all tests and other selection requirements where there is an obligation
to do so under 41 CFR part 60 -3.
1. Conduct, at least annually, an inventory and evaluation at least of all minority
and female personnel for promotional opportunities and encourage these
employees to seek or to prepare for, through appropriate training, etc., such
opportunities.
m. Ensure that seniority practices, job classifications, work assignments and other
personnel practices, do not have a discriminatory effect by continually monitoring
all personnel and employment related activities to ensure that the EEO policy and
the Contractor's obligations under these specifications are being carried out.
n. Ensure that all facilities and company activities are nonsegregated except that
separate or single -user toilet and necessary changing facilities shall be provided to
assure privacy between the sexes.
o. Document and maintain a record of all solicitations of offers for subcontracts
from minority and female construction contractors and suppliers, including
circulation of solicitations to minority and female contractor associations and
other business associations.
p. Conduct a review, at least annually, of all supervisors' adherence to and
performance under the Contractor's EEO policies and affirmative action
obligations.
8. Contractors are encouraged to participate in voluntary associations which assist in
fulfilling one or more of their affirmative action obligations (7a through p). The efforts of
a contractor association, joint contractor - union, contractor - community, or other similar
group of which the contractor is a member and participant, may be asserted as fulfilling
any one or more of its obligations under 7a through p of these Specifications provided
t the contractor activel participat in the group, makes every effort to assure that the
Page 7 of 14
BIG PINE WATER OBSERVATION PLATFORM AND REYNOLDS ST. PIER
group has a positive impact on the employment of minorities and women in the industry,
ensures that the concrete benefits of the program are reflected in the Contractor's minority
and female workforce participation, makes a good faith effort to meet its individual goals
and timetables, and can provide access to documentation which demonstrates the
effectiveness of actions taken on behalf of the Contractor. The obligation to comply,
however, is the Contractor's and failure of such a group to fulfill an obligation shall not
be a defense for the Contractor's noncompliance.
9. A single goal for minorities and a separate single goal for women have been
established. The Contractor, however, is required to provide equal employment
opportunity and to take affirmative action for all minority groups, both male and female,
and all women, both minority and non - minority. Consequently, the Contractor may be in
violation of the Executive Order if a particular group is employed in a substantially
disparate manner (for example, even though the Contractor has achieved its goals for
women generally, the Contractor may be in violation of the Executive Order if a specific
minority group of women is underutilized).
10. The Contractor shall not use the goals and timetables or affirmative action standards
to discriminate against any person because of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.
11. The Contractor shall not enter into any Subcontract with any person or firm debarred
from Government contracts pursuant to Executive Order 11246.
12. The Contractor shall carry out such sanctions and penalties for violation of these
specifications and of the Equal Opportunity Clause, including suspension, termination
and cancellation of existing subcontracts as may be imposed or ordered pursuant to
Executive Order 11246, as amended, and its implementing regulations, by the Office of
Federal Contract Compliance Programs. Any Contractor who fails to carry out such
sanctions and penalties shall be in violation of these specifications and Executive Order
11246, as amended.
13. The Contractor, in fulfilling its obligations under these specifications, shall
implement specific affirmative action steps, at least as extensive as those standards
prescribed in paragraph 7 of these specifications, so as to achieve maximum results from
its efforts to ensure equal employment opportunity. If the Contractor fails to comply with
the requirements of the Executive Order, the implementing regulations, or these
specifications, the Director shall proceed in accordance with 41 CFR 60 -4.8.
14. The Contractor shall designate a responsible official to monitor all employment
related activity to ensure that the company EEO policy is being carried out, to submit
reports relating to the provisions hereof as may be required by the Government and to
keep records. Records shall at least include for each employee the name, address,
telephone numbers, constructi trade, u nion affiliation if any, employee identification
Page 8 of 14
BIG PINE WATER OBSERVATION PLATFORM AND REYNOLDS ST. PIER
number when assigned, social security number, race, sex, status (e.g., mechanic,
apprentice trainee, helper, or laborer), dates of changes in status, hours worked per week
in the indicated trade, rate of pay, and locations at which the work was performed.
Records shall be maintained in an easily understandable and retrievable form; however,
to the degree that existing records satisfy this requirement, contractors shall not be
required to maintain separate records.
15. Nothing herein provided shall be construed as a limitation upon the application of
other laws which establish different standards of compliance or upon the application of
requirements for the hiring of local or other area residents (e.g., those under the Public
Works Employment Act of 1977 and the Community Development Block Grant
Program).
(b) The notice set forth in 41 CFR 60 -4.2 and the specifications set forth in 41 CFR 60 -4.3
replace the New Form for Federal Equal Employment Opportunity Bid Conditions for Federal
and Federally Assisted Construction published at 41 FR 32482 and commonly known as the
Model Federal EEO Bid Conditions, and the New Form shall not be used after the regulations in
41 CFR part 60 -4 become effective.
[43 FR 49254, Oct. 20, 1978; 43 FR 51401, Nov. 3, 1978, as amended at 45 FR 65978, Oct. 3,

Note: Executive Order (EO) 13706, Establishing Paid Sick Leave for Federal Contractors applies
to all contracts subject to the Davis -Bacon Act for which the contract is awarded (and any
solicitation was issued) on or after January 1, 2017. If this contract is covered by the EO, the
contractor must provide employees with 1 hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours they work,
up to 56 hours of paid sick leave each year. Employees must be permitted to use paid sick leave
for their own illness, injury or other health - related needs, including preventive care; to assist a
family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is ill, injured, or has other
health - related needs, including preventive care; or for reasons resulting from, or to assist a family
member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is a victim of, domestic violence,
sexual assault, or stalking. Additional information on contractor requirements and worker
protections under the EO is available at www,(Io gcs� )v /w /gca�FColit acts.
Unlisted classifications needed for work not included within the scope of the classifications
listed may be added after award only as provided in the labor standards contract clauses (29 CFR
5.5 (a) (1) (ii)).
The body of each wage determination lists the classification and wage rates that have been found
to be prevailing for the cited type(s) of construction in the area covered by the wage
determination. The classifications are listed in alphabetical order of "identifiers" that indicate
whether the particular rate is a union rate (current union negotiated rate for local), a survey rate
(weighted average rate) or a union average rate (weighted union average rate).
Page 12 of 14
BIG PINE WATER OBSERVATION PLATFORM AND REYNOLDS ST. PIER
Union Rate Identifiers
A four letter classification abbreviation identifier enclosed in dotted lines beginning with
characters other than "SU" or "UAVG" denotes that the union classification and rate were
prevailing for that classification in the survey. Example: PLUM0198 -005 07/01/2014. PLUM is
an abbreviation identifier of the union which prevailed in the survey for this classification, which
in this example would be Plumbers. 0198 indicates the local union number or district council
number where applicable, i.e., Plumbers Local 0198. The next number, 005 in the example, is an
internal number used in processing the wage determination. 07/01/2014 is the effective date of
the most current negotiated rate, which in this example is July 1, 2014.
Union prevailing wage rates are updated to reflect all rate changes in the collective bargaining
agreement (CBA) governing this classification and rate.
Survey Rate Identifiers
Classifications listed under the "SU" identifier indicate that no one rate prevailed for this
classification in the survey and the published rate is derived by computing a weighted average
rate based on all the rates reported in the survey for that classification. As this weighted average
rate includes all rates reported in the survey, it may include both union and non -union rates.
Example: SULA2012 -007 5/13/2014. SU indicates the rates are survey rates based on a weighted
average calculation of rates and are not majority rates. LA indicates the State of Louisiana. 2012
is the year of survey on which these classifications and rates are based. The next number, 007 in
the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. 5/13/2014
indicates the survey completion date for the classifications and rates under that identifier.
Survey wage rates are not updated and remain in effect until a new survey is conducted.
Union Average Rate Identifiers
Classification(s) listed under the UAVG identifier indicate that no single majority rate prevailed
for those classifications; however, 100% of the data reported for the classifications was union
data. EXAMPLE: UAVG -OH -0010 08/29/2014. UAVG indicates that the rate is a weighted
union average rate. OH indicates the state. The next number, 0010 in the example, is an internal
number used in producing the wage determination. 08/29/2014 indicates the survey completion
date for the classifications and rates under that identifier.
A UAVG rate will be updated once a year, usually in January of each year, to reflect a weighted
average of the current negotiated /CBA rate of the union locals from which the rate is based.
WAGE DETERMINATION APPEALS PROCESS
1.) Has there been an initial decision in the matter? This can be:
Page 13 of 14
BIG PINE WATER OBSERVATION PLATFORM AND REYNOLDS ST. PIER
* an existing published wage determination
* a survey underlying a wage determination
* a Wage and Hour Division letter setting forth a position on a wage determination matter
* a conformance (additional classification and rate) ruling
On survey related matters, initial contact, including requests for summaries of surveys, should be
with the Wage and Hour Regional Office for the area in which the survey was conducted because
those Regional Offices have responsibility for the Davis -Bacon survey program. If the response
from this initial contact is not satisfactory, then the process described in 2.) and 3.) should be
followed.
With regard to any other matter not yet ripe for the formal process described here, initial contact
should be with the Branch of Construction Wage Determinations. Write to:
Branch of Construction Wage Determinations
Wage and Hour Division
U.S. Department of Labor
200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.
Washington, DC 20210
2.) If the answer to the question in 1.) is yes, then an interested party (those affected by the
action) can request review and reconsideration from the Wage and Hour Administrator (See 29
CFR Part 1.8 and 29 CFR Part 7). Write to:
Wage and Hour Administrator
U.S. Department of Labor
200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.
Washington, DC 20210
The request should be accompanied by a full statement of the interested party's position and by
any information (wage payment data, project description, area practice material, etc.) that the
requestor considers relevant to the issue.
3.) If the decision of the Administrator is not favorable, an interested party may appeal directly to
the Administrative Review Board (formerly the Wage Appeals Board). Write to:
Administrative Review Board
U.S. Department of Labor
200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.
Washington, DC 20210
4.) All decisions by the Administrative Review Board are final.
