Item G02BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY Meeting Date: March 19, 2008 Bulk Item: Yes X No Division: Growth Management Department: Administration Staff Contact Person: Beth Beriah AGENDA ITEM WORDING: Approval of a change order to grant Task Assignment FK-079 with Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) to modify the type of reimbursement allowed under the grant from "cost reimbursement" to "fixed price". ITEM BACKGROUND: Monroe County was awarded grant funds from FDEP in the amount of $80,000 for invasive exotic plant removal under the existing Task Assignment FK-079. Currently, the Task Assignment allows for reimbursement on a "cost reimbursement" basis. However, it has been discovered that the overriding contract (DEP Contract PL-029) does not allow for "cost reimbursement". At the request of FDEP, Task Assignment FK-079 must be modified to allow for reimbursement on a "fixed price" basis. By making this modification Task Assignment FK-079 will be consistent with FDEP Contract PL-029. The amount of the grant remains the same. PREVIOUS RELEVANT BOCC ACTION: February 18, 2004 — Approval of 10 year FDEP contract PL-029 for funding to remove invasive exotic plant species. August 15, 2007 — Approval of grant task assignment FK-079 for an $80,000 grant for the contracted removal of invasive exotic vegetation from Monroe County conservation lands. January 16, 2008 — Approval of a contract with Dot Palm, Inc to perform the invasive exotic removal work funded by task assignment FK-079. CONTRACT/AGREEMENT CHANGES: Due to conflicts with the existing DEP contract (PL-029) the type of reimbursement allowed under the task assignment needs to be changed from "cost reimbursement" to "fixed price".
