Re: Murray E. Neleon Government & Cultural Center
Project No. 050301
Dear Jerry:
As per your conversation thie morning with Bob Currie, and In accordance with Article 8.1.1 of the
Contract for Professional Services between Monroe County Board of County Commissioners and
Currie Sowards Aguila Architects, dated May 18, 2005, we are hereby documenting that an
adjustment to the fee for services will accompany this months billing.
As you may recall, during Contract negotiations we agreed on an assumed construction amount of
$8,200,000.00 for purposes of billing. The CantraG!; provides for an adjustment of our fee at the
same percentage rate (970) once the cost of construction is determined. We now know that the
Contract between Monroe County and AFCO, the General Contractor, will be just above Ten Million
Dollars. For purposes of this adjustment we will assume an even Ten Million Dollars which when
calculated at Nine percent will be a revised fee amount of $900,000.00 plus direct expenses.
Please advise us as to the proper procedure for adjusting the purchase order which currently is at
$738,000.00 and should be increased to $900,000.00.
In addition, we have agreed to absorb the $35,350.00 cost for the latest round of Value
Engineering items and are proceeding with the revisions at no charge to Monroe Count;y.
Sincerely,
CURRIE SOWARDS AGUILA ARCHITECTS

under this Agreement commences with the award of the Contract for construction and terminates
with the issuance to the Owner of the final Project Certificate for Payment including the submission
of all project close out documents by the Architect/Engineer and Contractor. The
Architect/Engineer will administer the Owner/Contractor contract as provided for in that document.
The Architect/Engineer agrees to perform a project check prior to the end of the warranty period as
a part of the contract. The check shall not exceed one working day unless additional time is
approved by the Owner.
2.9.2 The Architect/Engineer shall at all times have access to the Work whenever it is in
preparation or progress.

2.9.4 Upon receipt, the Architect/Engineer shall review and examine the Contractor's Schedule of
Values, together with any supporting documentation or data which the Owner or the
Architect/Engineer may require from the Contractor. The purpose of such review and examination
is to prevent an unbalanced Schedule of Values which allocates greater value to certain elements
of the Work than is indicated by such supporting documentation or data, or than is reasonable
under the circumstances. If the Schedule of Values was not found to be appropriate, or if the
supporting documentation or data is deemed to be inadequate, and unless the Owner directs the
Architect/Engineer to the contrary in writing, the Schedule of Values shall be returned to the
9
Contractor for revision of supporting documentation or data. After making such examination, if the
Schedule of Values is found to be appropriate as submitted, or if necessary, as revised, the
Architect/Engineer shall sign the Schedule of Values thereby indicating its informed belief that the
Schedule of Values constitutes a reasonable, balanced basis for payment of the Contract Price to
the Contractor. The Architect/Engineer shall not approve such Schedule of Values in the absence
of such belief unless directed to do so, in writing, by the Owner.
2.9.5 The Architect shall visit the site at intervals appropriate to the stage of construction (or as
otherwise agreed by the Architect in writing) to become generally familiar with the progress and
quality of the Work and to determine in general if the Work when completed will be in accordance
with the Contract Documents. However, the Architect shall not be required to make exhaustive or
continuous on-site inspections to check the quality or quantity or the Work. On the basis of on-site
observations as an architect, the Architect shall keep the Owner informed of the progress and
quality of the Work and shall endeavor to guard the Owner against defects and deficiencies in the
Work.

the Owner, the Architect/Engineer reliably informs the Owner that the Architect/Engineer has made
the inspection of the work required, and that the work for which payment is approved has reached
the quantities or percentages of completion shown, or both, that the quality of the Contractor's work
meets or exceeds the requirements of the Construction Contract, and that under the terms and
conditions of the Construction Contract, the Owner is obligated to make payment to the Contractor
of the amount approved.
2.9.7 The issuance of a Certificate for Payment shall not be a representation that the

Owner, to require additional inspection or testing of the Work in accordance with the provisions of
the Contract Documents, whether or not such Work is fabricated, installed or completed.
2.9.9 The Architect/Engineer shall review and approve or take other appropriate action upon
Contractor's submittals such as Shop Drawings, Product Data and Samples, but only for the limited
purpose of checking for conformance with information given and the design concept expressed in
the Contract Documents. The Architect/Engineer's action shall be taken with such reasonable
promptness as to cause no delay in the Contractor's Work or in construction by the Owner's own
forces, while allowing sufficient time in the Architect/Engineer's professional jUdgment to permit
adequate review. Review of such submittals is not conducted for the purpose of determining the
accuracy and completeness of other details such as dimensions and quantities or for
substantiating instructions for installation or performance of equipment or systems designed by the
Contractors, all of which remain the responsibility of the Contractors to the extent required by the
Contract Documents. The Architect/Engineer's review shall not constitute approval of safety
precautions or, unless otherwise specifically stated by the Architect/Engineer, of construction
10
means, methods, techniques, sequences, or procedures. The Architect/Engineer's approval of a
specific item shalf not indicate approval of an assembly of which the item is a component. When

required by the Contract Documents, the Architect/Engineer shall be entitled to rely upon such
certification to establish that the materials, systems or equipment will meet the performance criteria
required by the Contract Documents. Architect/Engineer shall take appropriate action on
submittals within 14 calendar days. The Architect/Engineer shall maintain a tracking log for the
submittals which shall include but not be limited to; the submittal as named in the specification, all

which have been received from the Contractor. The Architect/Engineer shall issue a final Project
Certificate for Payment upon compliance with the requirements of the Contract Documents.

ADDENDUM NO.1
Upper Keys Government Center
Response to Technical Questions
December 1, 2004
Several documents have been received from consultants requesting additional
information with respect to the Upper Keys Government Center Project. We have
grouped similar questions into a single reply.
1. Location of Project Site - The site is located at mile marker 102 on the Gulf
side adjacent to the Howard Johnson Motel. It was formerly know as the Quay
Restaurant. The site is approximately 3.5 acres.
2. Project Budget - The current construction budget for this project is estimated to
be between 4.5-6 million dollars.
3. County/State/Federal services and or departments to be accommodated at
new Government Center - The development program has not been completed
to date. When complete, it will list the activities and areas intended to be
included within this project.
4. Order of magnitude for total building square footage contemplated for new
Government Center - It is impossible to predict the building area at this time
since factors such as required parking, anticipated use, construction cost/SF and
possible development program area requirements have not been determined.
5. What governmental agency reviews will be required for this project _ Since
the development plan for this Project is not finalized, the County is uncertain as
to the full extent of regulatory review. It is intended that the selected Consultant
will provide that information to the County as the Project progresses.
6. What existing reports, surveys, studies for the subject property are
available for review - The County has a preliminary survey of the property.
7. Are USGSA forms 254 and 255 required for this submittal _ The use of
USGSA forms 254 and 255 expired in August of this year. They will not be
required for this or future Requests For Qualifications. USGSA Standard Form
330 is now in effect and will be required for this RFQ submittal.
8. Are public utilities or offsite roadwork involved - The site has an old sewage
treatment plant, some injection wells, electrical/ines and water line. Depending
on how the site is developed some, none or all of these may remain or be
removed. Offsite roadwork will most likely be limited to access points and work in
the easement area.
ADDENDUM NO.2
Upper Keys Government Center
Response to Technical Questions
December 15, 2004
Since publishing Addendum No. 1 on December 1, 2004, four additional documents
have been received from consultants requesting additional information with respect to
the Upper Keys Government Center Project. The reply to these questions is as follows:
1. Possibility of obtaining a list of firms interested in this project _ Since firms
are retrieving the RFQ data from DemandStar or the County's website, the
Engineering Department has no way of knowing which firms or how many firms
have expressed interest or will submit statements of qualifications.
2. Requirement to send insurance data to the County in advance of a firm's
submittal - Information on insurance coverage or other information should not
be sent to the County Engineering Department Directly. All requested
information should be included in the Respondent's submittal.
3. Possible inconsistency between RFQ and State Statutes as it pertains to
insurance and indemnification - The County Attorney has reviewed paragraph
1.15 in the RFQ and does not find any inconsistency with the State Statute.
4. Would $2 mil/ion per occurrence I $2 million aggregate be acceptable for
this project - The amount of coverage required for each project is based on
Monroe County's Schedule of Insurance Requirements. For this project, $3
million per occurrence / $5 million aggregate is required as a minimum.
Combinations that exceed this minimum are also acceptable.
