Bulk Item: Yes XX No
Division: Airports
Staff Contact Person: Peter HortonlPedro Mercado
AGENDA ITEM WORDING:
Approval of waiver of County's purchasing policy and procedure and approval of agreement with Perez
Engineering and Development, Inc. to provide resident inspector services at the Key West International
Airport construction project.
ITEM BACKGROUND:
As part of the revamping of the Key West International Airport construction project, the County moved
overall project responsibility from Dave Koppel to Peter Horton. With the County Engineering
Department no longer involved in the project, the County was left with no resident inspector on the
project as required by the FAA, as well as industry practice. The resident inspector's duties include a
number of vital functions such as ensuring contractor compliance with plans and specifications, ensuring
required testing is performed, reviewing tests reports and certifications, and documenting quantities of
materials used on the project, among others. The construction project cannot move forward without a
resident inspector. The County is seeking to waive purchasing policy and procedure on an emergency basis
because of the danger the lack of a resident inspector presents in terms of structural integrity of the
construction project, as well as the danger a facility constructed without inspection oversight would
represent to the public. The County is also asking that the agreement with Perez Engineering to provide
resident inspector services be approved.
