Technical Specifications Summary: City of Dania Beach City Hall Wind Mitigation & Backup Power

This document comprises the technical specifications and measurement/payment guidelines for a construction project undertaken by the City of Dania Beach, Florida, to upgrade the emergency power infrastructure at City Hall located at 100 W Dania Beach Boulevard. The project involves removal of an existing 80 kilowatt gas generator and installation of a new 350 kilowatt diesel emergency generator unit with a 187 mile-per-hour wind-resistant enclosure, along with associated structural hardening, electrical upgrades, underground conduit installation, and site restoration work. The scope encompasses civil work including sidewalk and pavement restoration, structural improvements such as partial demolition and reconstruction of the generator room, reinforcement of concrete slabs for air conditioning units, and comprehensive electrical modifications including removal and installation of transfer switches, generator annunciators, grounding systems, and modifications to the building's fire alarm and electrical service systems. The contractor must establish a construction work sequence for owner approval prior to mobilization, coordinate with ongoing owner operations to minimize conflicts, and accommodate potential work by other parties on concurrent contracts. The project requires submission of a traffic control plan, stormwater pollution prevention plan, and hurricane preparedness plan within specified timeframes after notice to proceed.

Compensation is structured as a unit price bid with multiple line items covering site preparation, clearing and grubbing, maintenance of traffic and mobilization/demobilization, stormwater pollution prevention, testing and surveying, permitting allowances, infrastructure improvements, structural improvements, generator installation and associated equipment, and electrical work related to the new generator system. The measurement and payment section stipulates that unit prices include all labor, materials, equipment, delivery, installation, insurance, bonding, taxes, testing, surveys, and supervision necessary for complete in-place construction. Partial payment for properly stored and protected materials is permitted in accordance with contract requirements, and payment determinations are based on either a percentage of lump sum price or measured quantities as determined by the engineer. The contractor bears all costs for temporary utilities, underground utility locating services, field engineering and surveying, and daily construction observation reporting. The contractor is responsible for coordinating with utility companies including FPL, conducting preconstruction meetings, protecting existing property and work in progress, obtaining required permits and licenses, and restoring damaged or disturbed surfaces at no additional cost to the owner. The contract includes provisions for shop drawing and submittal review, construction schedules submitted in Microsoft Project format, and record documentation of all work as constructed.
