Hodgman Maintaining Agency: City of Boynton Beach Date: March 23, 2023 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The purpose of a plan for the landscape improvements maintenance practices is to allow the plant material on your project to thrive in a safe and vigorous manner while fulfilling their intended purpose and conserving our natural resources. Plantings and all other landscape improvements within FDOT right of way shall be maintained to avoid potential roadway hazards and to provide required clear visibility, accessibility, clearance, and setbacks as set forth by Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) governing standards and specifications: FDOT Standard Plans, FDOT Plans Design Manual and FDOT Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction, as amended by contract documents, and all other requirements set forth by the District 4 Operations Maintenance Engineer. Part I of the Maintenance Plan describes general maintenance requirements and recommendations that are standard for all projects. Part II provides recommendations prepared by the Registered Landscape Architect of Record specific to the attached approved plans. PART I. GENERAL MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS: WATERING REQUIREMENTS Watering is a critical concern for not only the maintenance of healthy plant material but also for observing water conservation practices. The amount of water to apply at any one time varies with the weather, drainage conditions and water holding capacity of the soil. For plant materials that have been established, it is imperative that any mandated water restrictions be fully conformed to on FDOT roadways. Proper watering techniques should provide even and thorough water dispersal to wet the entire root zone, but not saturate the soil or over-spray onto travel lanes. IRRIGATION SYSTEM The Agency shall ensure there are no roadway overspray or irrigation activities during daytime hours (most notably “rush hour” traffic periods). It is imperative the irrigation controller is properly set to run early enough that the watering process will be entirely completed before high traffic periods, while adhering to mandated water restrictions. To ensure water conservation, the Agency shall monitor the system for water leaks and the rain sensors to ensure they are functioning properly so that the system shuts down when there is sufficient rainfall. MULCHING Mulch planting beds to prevent weed growth, retain moisture to the plants, protect against soil erosion and nutrient loss, maintain a more uniform soil temperature, and improve the appearance of the planting beds. Do not mound mulch against the trunks of trees, palms, and the base of shrubs to allow air movement which aids in lowering disease susceptibility. Cypress mulch is prohibited on state right of way. MMOA Page 19 of 27 76 S:\Transportation Development\Design\In-House Design\Landscape Architecture\2 - AGREEMENTS\1 - MMOA\BOYNTON BEACH\2023-L-496-00003\Broadstone MMOA.docx INTEGRATED PLANT MANAGEMENT An assessment of each planting area’s soil is recommended to periodically determine the nutrient levels needed to sustain healthy, vigorous plant growth. Palms, shrubs, trees, and turf areas shall be fertilized in such a manner and frequency to ensure that the plant material remains healthy and vigorously growing. Please be alert to changes in fertilization types per University of Florida, Institute of Food and Agricultural Services (I.F.A.S.) recommendations. Establishment of an integrated pest management program is encouraged to ensure healthy plants, which are free of disease and pests. PRUNING All pruning, and the associated safety criteria, shall be performed according to American National Standard Institute (ANSI) A300 standards and shall be supervised by an International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) Certified Arborist. Pruning shall be carried out with the health and natural growth of plant materials in mind, to achieve the FDOT requirements for maintaining clear visibility for motorists, and provide vertical clearance for pedestrian, bicyclist, and truck traffic where applicable. Visibility windows must be maintained free of view obstructions, and all trees and palms must be maintained to prevent potential roadway and pedestrian hazards. All palms are to be kept fruit free. The understory plant materials selected for use within the restricted planting areas (Limits of Clear Sight) are to be mature height in compliance with the FDM Window Detail. Vertical clear zones for vegetation heights over roadways and sidewalks must meet the requirements of the FDOT Maintenance Rating Program (MRP) standards. See Reference pages. The R.L.A. of Record will provide the specific pruning heights for mature or maintained height and spread of all plant material to achieve the design intent shall be noted in Part II., Specific Project Site Maintenance Requirements and Recommendations. STAKING AND GUYING All staking materials are to be removed after one year or as directed by the RLA of Record.). Any subsequent staking and guying activities by the Agency must adhere to FDOT Standard Plans guidelines (See Index 580-001). The Agency shall closely monitor staking and guying attachment materials so that they are securely fastened to avoid potential roadway hazards. TURF MOWING All grassed areas are to be mowed and trimmed with sufficient frequency to maintain a deep, healthy root system while providing a neat and clean appearance to the urban landscape. All turf efforts, mowing, curb/sidewalk edging and turf condition, must at a minimum, meet FDOT Maintenance Rating Program (MRP). LITTER CONTROL The project site shall remain as litter free as practicable. It is recommended to recycle this litter to avoid unnecessary waste by its reuse. Litter removal efforts must meet FDOT Maintenance Rating Program (MRP) standards. WEEDING/HERBICIDE All planting areas shall be maintained as weed free as practicable by enlisting integrated pest management practices in areas specified on the plans and maintaining proper mulch levels. Extreme care is recommended when using a chemical herbicide to avoid overspray onto plant materials. It is the applicator’s responsibility to restore any damage resulting from overspray to the plantings, per the approved plans. MMOA Page 20 of 27 77 S:\Transportation Development\Design\In-House Design\Landscape Architecture\2 - AGREEMENTS\1 - MMOA\BOYNTON BEACH\2023-L-496-00003\Broadstone MMOA.docx PLANT REPLACEMENT Plant replacement shall be the same species and specification as the approved plan. Move and replace all plant materials that may conflict with utility relocations and service. Only plants graded Florida #1 or better, per the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Grades and Standards for Nursery Plants are permitted on FDOT roadways. Should it become necessary to change the species, a permit is required from FDOT for approval by the FDOT District Landscape Architect. TREE CELL STRUCTURES Underground tree cells shall be maintained in such a manner as to prolong the life of the structure and prevent potential safety hazards. If the structures fail or become damaged, they shall be replaced with the same type and specification as the approved plan.

HARDSCAPE (SPECIALTY SURFACING) All tree grates and specialty surfacing (if applicable) shall be maintained in such a manner as to prevent any potential tripping hazards and protect damage to the surfacing and tree grates. Final surface tolerance from grade elevations shall, at a minimum, meet the most current FDOT Maintenance Rating Program Handbook for a sidewalk; ADA accessible sidewalk; and FDOT Design Standards for Design, Construction, Maintenance and Utility Operations on The State Highway System. If the specialty surfacing or tree grates become damaged, they shall be replaced with the same type and specification as the approved plan. HARDSCAPE (CONCRETE PAVERS) All concrete pavers (if applicable) shall be maintained in such a manner as to prevent any potential tripping hazards and protect damage to the pavers. Final surface tolerance from grade elevations shall, at a minimum, meet the most current Interlocking Concrete Pavement Institute (ICPI), Guide Specifications for Pavers on an Aggregate Base, Section 23 14 13 Interlocking Concrete Pavers, Part 3.05. If the concrete pavers become damaged, they shall be replaced with the same type and specification as the approved plan. It shall be the responsibility of the AGENCY to maintain all signs located within a non-standard surfacing area. Such maintenance to be provided by the AGENCY shall include repair and replacement of the sign panel, post, and base. HARDSCAPE (NON-STANDARD TRAVELED WAY SURFACING) It shall be the responsibility of the AGENCY to restore an unacceptable ride condition of the roadway, including asphalt pavement (if applicable), caused, or contributed by the installation or failure of non-standard surfacing, and/or the header curb, on the Department of Transportation right of way within the limits of this Agreement. Pavement restoration areas or “patches” will have a minimum length of 10-ft, measured from the edge of the header curb, and a width to cover full lanes for each lane affected by the restoration. Pavement restoration will be performed in accordance with the most current edition of the FDOT Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction, and the FDOT Design Standards for Design, Construction, Maintenance and Utility Operations on the State Highway System .

Requested Action: Staff recommends approval of Proposed Resolution No. R24-271. Explanation of Request: The Intergovernmental Coordination Program (ICP) was established in 1993 to provide a process and opportunity for local governments to resolve conflicts and maintain open lines of communication. Recently the Multijurisdictional Issues Coordination Forum Executive Committee (MICFEC) revisited the issue of regional transportation and mobility. The issue was identified and determined to be of multijurisdictional significance in 2019 by the Issues Forum. Tabled until the resolution of issues surrounding impact fees and mobility, this issue has resurfaced due to increased transportation related problems and the need to create solutions through a collaborative and connected plan. Recognizing the need for a Countywide Transportation Plan, MICFEC has agreed to serve as the policy board to work with a consultant to develop a plan together with an enhanced group of technical professionals, known as Intergovernmental Plan Amendment Review Committee (IPARC) 2.0. This group will provide valuable input to the consultant. The elected officials serving on the Issues Forum will be responsible to bring information back to their governing bodies for discussion and decisions, and the consultant will be funded by the County with money set aside for a transportation plan. As stated in the interlocal agreements, ICP members will provide needed in-kind services including staff resources and will work together to make this happen. The proposed resolution supports the procurement and oversight of the consultant(s) for the development of a county-wide transportation plan and supports the formation of a county-wide technical advisory committee. It also supports the following as necessary for the achievement of a Countywide Transportation Plan: 1. The crafting of a Scope of Services by the Palm Beach County City Manager ’s 134 Association (PBCCMA) through an internal process in which the final version will be distributed to the County and the municipalities. 2. The ICP’s Multijurisdictional Issues Coordination Forum Executive Committee MICFEC) shall serve as the Oversight Board for the Consulting Firm hired to craft the Countywide Transportation Plan, providing policy-level activities specifically related to the contractual relationship, holding of public meetings with the Consulting Firm, providing direction to IPARC 2.0, facilitating engagement and participation of the ICP membership, and making recommendations to the governing bodies of the County, municipalities, and others. 3. The formation of an expanded version of the Intergovernmental Plan Amendment Review Committee (IPARC) by adding municipal and County Engineers, Public Works, IT, TPA, FDOT, Tri-Rail, Palm Tran, and others as deemed appropriate by MICFEC to serve as the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC). The Technical Advisory Committee, IPARC 2.0, will provide information as required by the Consulting Firm as the subject matter experts and provide input and advice to the Consulting Firm and MICFEC. 4. The coordination and processing of the contract with the selected Consulting Firm by use of the County government as the responsible agency for contract administration, including but not limited to assuring compliance with the terms and conditions of the contract, invoice processing, and payments.

Requested Action: Staff recommends approval of Proposed Resolution No. R24-273. Explanation of Request: The Piggyback agreement allows the City to continue broker services with Gehring group who manage the review of the market, negotiates premium costs, and recommends carriers for select policy coverages requested by the City. The Risk Management Division is seeking consent to piggyback this contract and establish an agreement with Gehring Group Inc. for the broker services of our insurance policies. The initial term would be in effect until April 22, 2025, with two (2) one- year renewal options. Gehring Group has agreed to allow the City to piggyback the Boca contract with a reduced commission percentage, which is in the best interests of the City. How will this affect city programs or services? Approval will allow the City to continue with policy coverage for PGIT and other carriers who require a broker to be in place for municipalities to purchase their coverages. Fiscal Impact: The City and Gehring Group have negotiated contract price terms lower than the original contract. The City's agreement would offer Gehring Group a 7% commission fee for the policies purchased through Gehring Group's services. The annual amount not to exceed is inclusive of the price of the policies the City carries and commission fees. This is a budgeted item.

Palmetto Park Road Boca Raton, FL 33432 Re: City of Boca Raton - RFP# 2021-002 – Broker Services for Casualty & Excess Insurance Dear Evaluation Committee Member: Gehring Group is pleased to provide this response to the City of Boca Raton’s RFP #2021-002 for Broker Services for Casualty & Excess Insurance. Gehring Group is unique in our qualifications to be your broker/consultant for three notable reasons: 1) we are public sector experts as public sector is our ONLY industry specialty; 2) our unique non-producer corporate organizational structure allows us to offer our clients a broad depth of value-added services and a deep bench of expertise; and 3) our all-inclusive service model allows our clients the opportunity to utilize our resources without concern for additional cost. First, public sector is (and for the past 28 years, has been) our ONLY specialty industry, and accordingly it influences how we think, and how we tailor our services – specifically for the unique needs and nuances of this very important sector of employer organizations. Currently, we provide insurance related services for over 100 public sector clients throughout Florida. These organizations include municipalities, counties, school boards, special taxing districts and constitutional offices. Our extensive public sector focus and expertise affords us the ability and experience to provide real time benchmarking studies and related case study comparatives for consideration. Second, our organization is a collaborative advisory firm, rather than an agency of producers. Our team members, including our risk management consultants, are paid a salary rather than a commission. What this means for our clients is a depth of centralized resources, a think tank of seasoned experts and professionals exclusively committed to serving our clients’ interests; collaborating and negotiating in an informed and experienced concurrent manner in order to achieve the most cost savings and greatest results for our clients. It also means resources – we employ our own safety and loss control officers, claims administrators, wellness coordinators, risk managers and graphic designers, and we tap into necessary outside focused resources to benefit our clients such as employment attorneys, property appraisers, and actuaries with casualty and workers compensation program specialty. Without producers as a sales force, it is especially important to our organization that we create amazing client experiences – because we grow by having great references. At the foundation of Gehring Group’s approach to client engagement is a commitment to transparency, flexibility, and responsiveness. Third, Gehring Group is unique in that we offer an all-inclusive model. Our core services exceed those requested in the Scope of Services outlined in the City of Boca Raton’s RFP #2021-002 for Broker Services Page 3 350 for Casualty & Excess Insurance; and we have indicated various additional value-added services, all of which are included within our fee. We are proud to advocate to the insurance carriers on behalf of our public sector clients. As the top producing broker/consultant exclusive to public sector entities throughout the state, we have earned the distinct honor of being the only agency in Florida to be granted administrative access to multiple public entity trusts, including Preferred Governmental Insurance Trust (PGIT) and Florida Municipal Insurance Trust (FMIT). We also maintain active relationships with standard market public-entity carriers such as, Travelers, CNA, AIG, BRIT Specialty, QBE and more. This exclusive diversity provides us an opportunity to make recommendations to improve products and services based on real time and relevant feedback from our clients to our carriers regarding specific programs and risk models. This also provides us considerable leverage during client negotiations. The names of the principals authorized to make representations for Gehring Group regarding this proposal are outlined below. All staff listed below are located at Gehring Group’s corporate headquarters at 3500 Kyoto Gardens Drive, Palm Beach Gardens, FL 33410 – Telephone: 800-244-3696 / 561-626-6797.

Submitted as Attachment or Type/Provide Response here: Gehring Group has a strong culture, ethos, and commitment to all our communities including our clients, team members, and the communities in which we live, work, and service. We embarked upon an exhaustive process that involved taking a comprehensive introspection on who we are as a company and, most importantly, identifying “Why” our organization seeks to serve our clients, support community services and empower our employees. Accordingly, our mission is best encapsulated in our WHY statement – “To inspire our communities to envision and embrace new possibilities.” This “Why” statement is driven by our ethos and sets the foundation for our strong culture that makes a community partner and has inspired our tag line “Our communities rely on the public sector; the public sector relies on Gehring Group”. 3.Provide a statement as to how the firm’s experience will be directly beneficial to the City for providing broker services. Submitted as Attachment or Type/Provide Response here:Gehring Group is pleased to provide this proppsal in response to the City of Boca Raton's RFP for Broker Services for Casualty & Excess Insurance. Through our extensive experience over the past 28 years serving as Consultants/Brokers for over 100 Florida public sector entities, we will provide efficiencies, value-added services, in-depth public- sector experience, and an unparalleled standard with the goal of not merely meeting the City of Boca Raton's needs, but exceeding City expectations. Gehring Group’s Risk Management and Property and Casualty Brokerage services have been designed to achieve one key objective: anticipate and solve challenges for the Public Sector. Our exclusive focus on our governmental entities means that everything that we do, every day, revolves solely around supporting our clients in addressing the same issues that challenge the City of Boca Raton; and our complete independence means that there is no external influence able to compromise the integrity of the insurance products and services that we present to the City of Boca Raton. For example, we disputed findings from the fiscal year 2019 P&C package policy audit for the Village of Wellington, who received a bill of more than $130,000. Our knowledge of Florida statutes surrounding governmental entities, and the meticulous veracity with which we conducted our Page 8 355 4 investigation and analysis lead to the acquiescence of the auditing firm that we were correct in our arguement. The result was a premium credit of more than $50,000 to the Village, a reversal of over $180,000! We are confident that our proposed services will guide and assist the City of Boca Raton with securing the most appropriate and cost-effective insurance coverages available. Our decision to not employ commissioned producers means that there will never be a conflict of interest between an individual’s personal finances and providing what is in the best interest of the City of Boca Raton. Additionally, we provide comprehensive risk management services including an experienced, former municipal risk manager who will be assigned as the City of Boca Raton’s designated consultant to assist with policy and program creation and solutions. Currently, due to the recent first responder PTSD legislation, our most pressing risk management endeavor is building area networks of psychiatric diagnostic and treatment providers who are authorized to treat under the workers compensation F.S. statute 440. This is a direct result of our clients expressed concern over a lack of providers. The City of Boca Raton will benefit and participate in all such Gehring Group’s Risk Management Solutions, at no additional cost. Gehring Group can also provide the City of Boca Raton assistance with internal loss engineering through the experienced team efforts of your Risk Services Advisor, Risk Management Consultant and Safety Officer. With a combined 57 years of experience, your team will be able to tailor solutions that will empower the City of Boca Raton to effectively reduce risk and maintain business continuity. Gehring Group’s fundamental objective is to focus on the goals that are most important to the City of Boca Raton and to work together with the City of Boca Raton to achieve those goals. 4. Certifications/Awards/Memberships in the name of the Firm: Submitted as Attachment or Type/Provide Response here:Mountains of state regulation makes it an overwhelming undertaking to keep track of its ever-changing landscape affecting our public sector clients. Our team leaders are selective members of national legislative response groups attempting to educate our lawmakers on the concerns that our clients have regarding the regulatory process and federal requirements. Twice per year our risk professionals meet with lawmakers in D.C. to hear and voice the issues that matter most to you. We then return to provide insight to our clients about expected changes or introduction of new laws or regulations. Our team leaders are members of several Florida Public Sector Associations which provide industry educational resources, technological insights, access to professional development resources, workshops and conferences that help us to identify the most relevant concerns of our public-sector clients, so we can match them with real-time solutions. Our Risk Management Consultants hold designations of Associate Risk Managers (ARM), specific to the Public Sector. Additionally, Gehring Group’s expertise is well known throughout the state as evidenced by the repeated number of requests for our staff members to be featured speakers at various Florida public sector associations and other organizations including: • FFCA – Florida Fire Chief Association • FRE – Fire Rescue East • FAC – Florida Association of Counties • FASD – Florida Association of Special Districts • FERMA – Florida Educational Risk Management Association • FGFOA – Florida Government Finance Officers Association • FLC – Florida League of Cities • FPELRA – Florida Public Employer Labor Relations Association • FPPA – Florida Public Personnel Association • FSA – Florida Sheriff’s Association • FICPA – Florida Institute of Certified Public Accounting Chapter Meetings • PRIMA – Public Risk Management Association • RIMS – Risk & Insurance Management Society Page 9 356 5 • SALGBA – State and Local Government Benefits Association • SHRM – Society of Human Resource Management • IPMA – International Public Managers Association • CIAB – Council of Insurance Agents and Brokers 5. Please detail your experience, for third parties requesting use of City owned property for the purpose of putting on a Special Event such as a carnival, fireworks display event, and arts and education performances as it relates to special event policies. Submitted as Attachment or Type/Provide Response here:Departments within a municipal entity find it challenging to balance the need for programming and activities to enhance the experience of living and visiting the city and the limitations that may need to be in place to reduce the exposure to the city for the financial responsibility of an ill-fated event. Our Risk Management Consultants have years of experience building programs, protocols and policies within the cities and counties where they were employed. Their procedural expertise, coupled with the program knowledge of our Risk Service Advisors, we have incorporated several methods to accomplish the goal of formulating processes of third party facility use at many of the cities and counties with which we work. From designing request applications and acceptance procedures, to reviewing submission requests for compliance and sufficiency; from developing liability requirement matrixes per event type, to implementing Tenant User Liability Insurance Programs (TULIP) to automate compliance. We have used mutliple methodologies because our cities and counties have different needs and goals. We do not employ a cookie-cutter approach to designing programs and solutions for our clients. Each client is as unique as the people that staff and govern them. Whether it be a parade, festivval or spectacle, make sure that third party event organizers sufficiently insulate our clients, while safely engaging their residents and visitors. 6. What is your experience and knowledge with package programs for Casualty/Excess Insurance that may provide coverage for multiple lines of insurance? Submitted as Attachment or Type/Provide Response here:Gehring Group has earned the distinct honor of being the only agency in Florida to be granted administrative access to multiple public entity trusts, including Preferred Governmental Insurance Trust (PGIT) and Florida Municipal Insurance Trust (FMIT). We also maintain active relationships with standard market public-entity carriers who provide package programs such as, Travelers, CNA, AIG, BRIT Global Specialty, Berkley PE, QBE and more. This exclusive diversity provides us an opportunity to make recommendations to improve products and services based on real time and relevant feedback from our clients to our carriers regarding specific programs and risk models. This also provides us considerable leverage during client negotiations. Gehring Group is continually evaluating the efficacy of our package policy programs with those of stand- alone programs to always place our clients in the best position to take advantage of where the industry is moving. 7. Explain your experience and knowledge with assisting your clients with recommendations for indemnification/hold harmless clause provisions as well as advice and development of insurance/liability specifications and other risk management concerns. Reference any analysis tools or software you would use for this purpose. Submitted as Attachment or Type/Provide Response here:F.s. 768.28(19) reads, "Neither the state nor any agency or subdivision of the state waives any defense of sovereign immunity, or increases the limits of its liability, upon entering into a contractual relationship with another agency or subdivision of the state. Such a contract must not contain any provision that requires one party to indemnify or insure the other party for the other party’s negligence or to assume any liability for the other party’s negligence. This does not preclude a party from requiring a nongovernmental entity to provide such indemnification or insurance." Under the auspices of this statutory wording is the basis from which the Gehring Group staff builds its foundation of how to draft, review and recommend language to include in the contracts and Page 10 357 6 agreements entered nto by our clients. The most common contract analysis we have provided for our clients involves responding to questions on Standard Agreement Insurance Requirements, Professional Services Agreement Insurance Requirements, Construction Contracts and Hold Harmless/ Indemnity clauses. Gehring Group’s risk management staff regularly reviews contracts for coverage sufficiency. In many instances, we work directly with City purchasing staff in reviewing insurance coverages by scope of service being requested as well as identifying potential areas of concern related to third-party liability. 8.

Describe how your organization is best suited to provide broker services for the City of Boca Raton; how would you differentiate your organization from others in the industry? Type/Provide Response here:Gehring Group is unique in our qualifications to be your broker/consultant for three notable reasons: 1) we are public sector experts as public sector is our ONLY industry specialty; 2) our unique non-producer corporate organizational structure allows us to offer our clients a broad depth of value- added services and a deep bench of expertise without the concern of its effect on the personal revenue or earnings of a sales-driven producer; and 3) our all-inclusive service model allows our clients the opportunity to utilize our resources without concern for additional cost. First, public sector is (and for the past 28 years, has been) our ONLY specialty industry, and accordingly it influences how we think, and how we tailor our services – specifically for the unique needs and nuances of this very important sector of employer organizations. Currently, we provide insurance related services for over 100 public sector clients throughout Florida. These organizations include municipalities, counties, school boards, special taxing districts and constitutional offices. Our extensive public sector focus and expertise affords us the ability and experience to provide real time benchmarking studies and related case study comparatives for consideration. Page 21 368 17 Second, our organization is a collaborative advisory firm, rather than an agency of producers. Our team members, including our risk management consultants, are paid a salary rather than a commission. What this means for our clients is a depth of centralized resources, a think tank of seasoned experts and professionals exclusively committed to serving our clients’ interests; collaborating and negotiating in an informed and experienced concurrent manner in order to achieve the most cost savings and greatest results for our clients. It also means resources – we employ our own safety and loss control officers, claims administrators, wellness coordinators, risk managers and graphic designers, and we tap into necessary outside focused resources to benefit our clients such as employment attorneys, property appraisers, medical advisors and actuaries, all of whom have property & casualty and workers compensation program specialties. Without producers as a sales force, it is especially important to our organization that we create amazing client experiences – because we grow by having great references. At the foundation of Gehring Group’s approach to client engagement is a commitment to transparency, flexibility, and responsiveness. Third, Gehring Group is unique in that we offer an all-inclusive model. Our core services exceed those requested in the Scope of Services outlined in the City of Boca Raton’s RFP #2021-002 for Broker Services for Casualty & Excess Insurance; and we have indicated various additional value-added services, all of which are included within our compensation. As the top producing broker/consultant exclusive to public sector entities throughout the state, we have earned the distinct honor of being the only agency in Florida to be granted administrative access to multiple public entity trusts, including Preferred Governmental Insurance Trust (PGIT) and Florida Municipal Insurance Trust (FMIT).

Our team has vast experience in the solicitation of all types of insurance, and we are confident that acquisition of various competitive options will be accomplished. ATTACHMENT 1 Page 29 376 Since the majority of Gehring Group’s client base consists of public entities our firm is uniquely qualified in its understanding of public entity issues. We understand the bid process and public record laws while maintaining familiarity with the constantly changing and complex statutes that apply to governmental organizations. This specialized knowledge is especially vital when negotiating renewals and program changes with insurance carriers and insurance consortiums. Gehring Group’s successful experience with public sector entities is further evidenced by the following list of CURRENT clients for whom Gehring Group provides property and casualty consulting services: Current Risk Management Governmental Entity Clients Boynton Beach, City of Margate, City of Charlotte County, BOCC Martin County BOCC Clerk & Comptroller, Palm Beach County Monroe County BOCC Deerfield Beach, City of North Palm Beach, Village of Dunedin, City of Osceola County Sheriff’s Office Greenacres, City of Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office Highlands County BOCC Palm Springs, Village of Jupiter Island, Town of Sarasota County Sheriff’s Office Keys Energy Services Tequesta, Village of Key West Housing Authority Venice, City of Lake Park, Town of Wellington, Village of Mangonia Park, Town of West Palm Beach Housing Authority Public Sector Case Studies (response to 5.3.2 - #5) Gehring Group remains on the forefront of the industry, recommending creative solutions and innovative strategies that help our clients save money. There are many examples in which Gehring Group has aggressively pursued cost-effective risk management programs for its clients. The following examples include actual case samples of Gehring Group clients ranging in employee size, who have experienced notable savings due to Gehring Group’s expert consulting, negotiating experience, value-added services, and knowledge of product offerings: Case Study #1 In 2005, the Gehring Group was awarded the contract for property and casualty brokerage services for the Charlotte County BOCC. Through our assessment and analysis, we were able to identify discrepancies in the property coverage levels for their more than $300,000,000 total insured property values. As a part of our process, we were able to better accurately provide greater coverage limits with additional enhancements while providing an overall cost savings to the County. During the immediately following storm season, the eye of Hurricane Charley crossed directly over Charlotte County. Throughout the ensuing aftermath and recovery, the Gehring Group was present with boots on the ground, assisting carrier adjusters and FEMA project managers to evaluate and assess damages. Fortunately, the processes that Gehring Group employed to build and recommend their property insurance coverage programs proved to successfully work as designed. Charlotte County’s property insurance policy construct provided 100% of the funding necessary to fully rebuild all the County’s affected assets, while leaving just $1,400,000 of the total policy’s $50,000,000 windstorm limits remaining. Page 30 377 Case Study #2 In 2018, the Gehring Group was approached by the Sarasota County Sheriff’s Office to assess their current insurance cost allocations being apportioned by the County for any potential anomalies. We analyzed the claims, commissioned an actuarial study, and conducted a benchmarking survey in order to provide the agency with accurate findings. The results indicated that there may have been significant savings experienced by the Sheriff’s Office by seeking to develop its own casualty and workers compensation program, apart from the County. Gehring Group took the prior analysis and worked with the Sheriff to educate the Sheriff on its exposures and the relevant risk financing methods available. We met repeatedly to discuss and develop risk tolerances, mitigation practices, and procedural processes. We then engaged the insurance markets to seek out carrier programs and coverages that fit their risk financing goals and objectives. We also drafted RFP documents and facilitated the procurement process of soliciting Third Party Administration (TPA) services on behalf of the Sheriff’s office. After evaluating all insurance carrier proposals, drafting summary findings of the TPA procurement, and providing a written recommendation for the overall program, the total annual savings presented to the Sheriff’s Office by creating their own risk management program was more than $940,000! Case Study #3 Gehring Group disputed findings from the most recent P&C package policy audit for the Village of Wellington, who received a bill of more than $130,000. Our knowledge of the state statutes surrounding governmental entities and the meticulous veracity with which we conducted our investigation and analysis lead to the acquiescence of the auditing firm that we were correct in our assessment. The result was a credit of more than $50,000 to the Village, a reversal of over $180,000! The City of Boca Raton’s team at Gehring Group has over 169 years of combined experience in the marketing and placement of public entity property casualty insurance programs. As an insurance agent with a concentration in public sector, we are uniquely knowledgeable about all available options (and differences among these options) as well as exposures germane to the City of Boca Raton. Due to our reputation and current portfolio in the public sector, we are the only agents/brokers with direct administrative access to multiple municipal entity insurance trusts and insurance pools in the state of Florida in addition to access to the layered insurance market. Our current portfolio of public sector clients has placed their property and liability exposures in both insurance trusts and in the layered property insurance market. Gehring Group has shown its greatest expertise is in placing and servicing comprehensive insurance program that meets the goals and needs of the public sector with particular emphasis on their scheduled and potentially unscheduled exposures. We recognize that insurance is not generic, and the needs and exposures of our clients are not cookie cutter. By providing consulting services to the City of Boca Raton’s risk management team, we would act as the City’s advocate for the various insurers. Due to the complexity of available risk exposures, we first evaluate the available loss control programs included with the carrier services. Independent Status Gehring Group is a completely independent agency. We do not have a fund that we or a related entity holds; we do not sell related party insurance products; and we do not accept awards for the placement of premiums with carriers. This decision to remain independent is in line with our values of integrity and transparency. Our deliberate decision to remain unfettered to other organizations means that our commitment to that which is in the best interest of the City of Boca Raton will not waiver nor be influenced by external financial pressures. We make the transparent choice to drive our decisions surrounding expansion, service enhancement, technological development, and talent acquisition around what we experience from working through challenges with the public sector. Page 31 378 Additionally, Gehring Group has unique knowledge of Florida governmental trusts and the distinct honor of being the only agency in Florida to be granted administrative access to multiple public entity trusts, including Preferred Governmental Insurance Trust (PGIT) and Florida Municipal Insurance Trust (FMIT). The Gehring Group’s experience and position amongst the various trusts and the standard insurance markets allows us to effectively evaluate and make recommendations on all program options that may be available to the City of Boca Raton through these various providers. Gehring Group has a longstanding commitment to quality assurance that starts with a team of professionals assigned to each client, ensuring that client requests are responded to thoroughly, timely, and with expertise. Gehring Group continually brings on new talent, and strategically places newly acquired clients to ensure that the client to professional ratio is low, and that the complexity of the client is considered in the process. We have found that our clients’ needs have grown as the economy has been burdened, and we have increased our staff to be responsive to these needs. Market Relationships Gehring Group also has strong market relationships. We have positioned ourselves as the premier public entity service provider and are recognized throughout Florida as the largest public entity brokerage firm. This reputation for objectivity and professionalism has allowed us to develop dynamic working relationships with a vast number of excess and surplus insurance carriers, as well as with the state’s admitted insurance carriers and permitted us to become the sole agency in Florida with administrative working access to multiple public entity insurance trusts, including Florida Municipal Insurance Trust and Preferred Governmental Insurance Trust. A relationship with a carrier that involves administrative access means that our agency is allowed to communicate directly with the insurance providers’ various administrative divisions. This communication entails the ability to negotiate with, assist to create policy manuscript changes for your client, uncommon to the standard coverage forms usually provided by the carrier, advocate with policy adjusters and provide direction to them on behalf of the member, share reporting and service plans with loss control staff and represent our agency or our clients at exclusive, member-only forums and events, hosted by the trusts. Gehring Group’s exclusive administrative access with FMIT has allowed us to negotiate coverages and premiums for our clients, even after initial proposals and coverage terms have been submitted. We have direct access to FMIT’s staff and vendors to review and negotiate audit results, claims reserves and underwriting customizations. This relationship involves trust and respect in the itegrity of the members advocate and the knowledge that while the member’s interests take precidence, they can rely on our agency to respectfully represent their program to our clients without any preconcieved bias. Gehring Group also enjoys similar administrative access with PGIT as an appointed company allowed to work with its staff members to negotiate, create, and advocate for the best coverage programs that best address our client’s operations. Our relationship allows us to receive regularly scheduled updates form adjusters and the ability to discuss and influence important decisions such as claims reserves. The administrative access afforded Gehring Group by both FMIT and PGIT is a mutual collaboration of trust and admiration that creates opportunities for coverage maximization, customization at the most competetive annual cost for our clients. We only work with reputable, financially stable, solvent and highly rated insurance carriers. We take into consideration insurance company A.M.

Page 40 387 Approach & Methodology (response to 5.6.1) Gehring Group always puts its clients’ needs first. Ensuring the successful completion of a project begins with careful discovery and planning. It is critical to clearly define the project scope and goals prior to beginning the work effort. The Gehring Group team is confident that our team-based approach and relevant experience is an excellent match for the needs of the City of Boca Raton. Our Risk Management Services and Marketing Process is the foundation for how we do business at Gehring Group. Our procedure begins at the onset of the award. We do not operate under a “cookie cutter” approach; instead, we offer all available resources and develop timelines to facilitate the tailoring of a program that meets the needs of our clients. Gehring Group staff will work closely with the City of Boca Raton to ensure this process aligns with the City’s goals. Our approach and methodology will involve an in-depth assessment of the City’s exposures from four different perspectives: Risk Manager, Insurance Consultant, Safety Officer and Risk Analyst. At the foundation of the Gehring Group team approach is a commitment to transparency, flexibility and responsiveness that ensures “seamless” operations and project administration. Our project approach is a “living document” designed for any changes as the project unfolds. Gehring Group takes a five- phase approach to help you manage your insurance programs and risk management needs which are illustrated below. Risk Manager Review asset schedules, review procedures and verify risk transfer agreements Insurance Consultant Identify coverage deficiencies, investigate coverages providing risk financing solutions Safety Officer Develop training programs and recognize loss mitigation opportunities Risk Analyst Gather historical data, identify consistent trends and outliers, create analytical reports. Page 41 388 Onboarding & Integration (Pre-Renewal Meeting) Prior to our annual pre-renewal meeting, we begin to gather and update all pertinent risk financing information from the City of Boca Raton. In addition to insurance policy information, we will complete a review of its website, financial statements; conduct a study of its insurance policy language and coverages to determine the exact protections being afforded; we review the City’s current employee and safety manuals, vendor contracts and recent interlocal agreements; initiate an citywide safety and liability assessment; engage in personnel discussions with relevant staff; and analyze current and historical claims experience. We then formulate our assessment of the updated risk exposures and coverage analysis completed from the information gathered. Our risk summary of the City’s hazard exposures and the adequacy of its current insurance program is then presented and reviewed with the City’s staff in order to confirm expectations and goals. We compare this risk summary to the City’s current insurance coverage to determine any serious or unanticipated gaps that exist; review the retentions and insurance limits; and provide you with our observations and recommendations. We then facilitate an implementation meeting where we will agree upon a timeline of major milestones that will take place up to the placement of the renewal policies. As per the Solicitation, when we are operating solely in a consulting capacity and are unable to place coverage directly for the City, we will communicate the necessary information to the brokers, carriers and trusts who will secure the various insurance product proposals on behalf of the City. Risk Assessment & Recommendation Meeting At least 130 days prior to the City’s primary policy renewal dates, we will coordinate a pre-renewal meeting to review our assessment of the risk exposures and coverage analysis completed from the information gathered prior, from which a risk analysis report and summary of the City’s hazard exposures and the adequacy of its current insurance program will be presented and reviewed with City staff in order to confirm expectations and goals. We will compare this risk summary to your current insurance coverage to determine any serious or unanticipated gaps that exist; review the retentions and insurance limits; and provide you with our observations and recommendations. Also, during this meeting, the Gehring Group will update the City on the current insurance market, discuss recent renewal results for similar clients, and various relevant deductible options. Finally, we will assess the City’s desires for of any particular carrier based on its history with that carrier; specifically, relevant industry coverages; the carrier’s financial rating, etc. At the heart of Gehring Group’s Risk Management process is our Risk Assessment. Our team of professionals will work with the City of Boca Raton to identify, analyze, and evaluate, in order to respond to and monitor risk. The following process spans across the entire organization, looking at both opportunities and risks, in the context of identifying strategies that best support the City of Boca Raton’s goals. Page 42 389 The risk assessment forms the basis for decision making regarding which risks or opportunities are priorities, what the appropriate response should be and how resources should be allocated to manage the risk or opportunity. While insurance is a key risk management tool that supports public entity service operations, vendor exposures or projects to be financed, there is no “one-size-fits-all” insurance structure that can be applied to every entity. From their unique coverage opportunities to their extremely high values, public entities face a wide range of exposures not regularly seen in the more traditional commercial insurance market. Implementation Plan/Process Upon completion of the Assessment and Recommendation meeting, Gehring Group, together with the City’s staff, will come away with a concise plan for our mutually agreed upon objectives for policy renewal coverages and ongoing services. We will then implement the plan first by portraying, with integrity, the City’s unique risk profile for each line of coverage to all available markets and/or brokerage firms. Insurance company underwriters will know that the City’s submission will truthfully portray its unique risks and operations in a transparent and easily discernable format. The ultimate goal of Gehring Group is to distinguish the City from its peers by demonstrating its distinctive risk characteristics. Currently, Gehring Group would then move to implement all the annually ongoing risk management, safety and loss control, claims administration and program analysis services that we mutually agree are required to assist the City to establish or maintain a culture of workplace safety and liability claims mitigation. With these services we would attend, facilitate or coordinate any regular meetings that the City requires and can be available with limited notice to assist with contract reviews, policy manual reviews, updates or drafting, conduct a citywide workplace safety and liability inspection and coordinate employee/staff trainings. Renewal Process (Request for Proposal) In order to achieve a successful renewal for our clients, we focus on two specific parts – market solicitation and the evaluation of options. At our Pre-renewal meeting, we will have discussed all available Page 43 390 market alternatives, ask for your input and agree upon the carriers that we want to approach based on their program specialties and the City’s needs. During the proposal process, we review alternative limits, retentions, and coverages. We provide you with regular updates to keep you informed of the process and to maintain the integrity of our pre-determined timelines. Upon Receipt of all carrier proposals, we will assess the results and create an unbiased evaluation of all coverage enhancement or detractions as per the objectives that we pre-determined to be of pertinence for the City. We are aware that our clients want to have a bottom-line comparison of all renewal alternatives, but we also know that they need to be able to recognize details of each quotation. So, our renewal evaluations feature detailed and highlighted coverage comparisons and a full summary of their differences. Our analysis will help you make the most educated renewal decision. Should Gehring Group function in the capacity of broker for any insurance coverages, it is important to understand that we do not utilize commissioned producers in our company. All our employees are salaried professionals. Therefore, the City can be assured that insurance carrier incentives such as commission percentages, policy retention prizes or productivity bonuses will never play a part in our program recommendations. Annual Review Annually, at an agreed upon date, the Gehring Group conducts a review meeting designed to evaluate our performance, review the results of your renewal, discuss any new operations or acquisitions you are contemplating, identify new and emerging risks, update you on recent market conditions/trends, and plan our next renewal strategy meeting. We conduct these annual meetings in order to identify opportunities for improvement to our services, to realign the services currently being provided to the City in the event that they are either insufficient or unnecessary to accomplish their goals and to ensure that the Gehring Group and the City are moving forward into the next policy term with the same goals. It is our intent to achieve a shared understanding of the risks that are associated with the City and the joined efforts to construct a plan to bring the greatest value to its insurance program, improve the predictability of its annual budget and increase opportunities for resident services. Upon completion of the development of the City’s insurance coverage plan objectives and risk management service needs, the Gehring Group immediately begins to coordinate program meetings and communications in order to commence the service needs of the plans. We will also implement the following renewal timetable: TIMELINE ACTION 150 days prior to renewal City & Gehring Group will come together for a pre-renewal meeting 130 days prior to renewal City & Gehring Group will attend assessment & recommendation meeting 120 days prior to renewal Coordinate the completion of all carrier renewal forms and applications 100 days prior to renewal Submission to brokers, carriers or to the market as directed by plan 90 days prior to renewal Status update to the City;, confirm integrity of timelines 75 days prior to renewal Receipt of all renewal proposals and carrier negotiations, if needed 65 days prior to renewal On-site presentation of renewal evaluation of market proposals 60 days prior to renewal Submission of proposals and support documents for Council agenda 45 days prior to renewal Attend any Council/Board meetings per the City’s direction 30 days prior to renewal Submit policy bind requests to carriers Page 44 391 TIMELINE ACTION 25 days prior to renewal Confirm receipt of all binders and generate invoices for as needed Renewal Date New Plan Year begins 30 days after renewal New policy receipt from carrier and review for coverage accuracy 45 days after renewal Electronic delivery of carrier policies to the City 60 days after renewal Delivery of insurance policies booklet and schedule Throughout the risk financing procurement and placement timetable shown above, we will engage in our other ongoing services to the City of Boca Raton such as, safety and loss control, risk management assessment, risk analysis, claims advocacy, proactive claims management, staff trainings, asset assessments, analytical reporting, contract insurance language reviews, procedural manual drafting and council presentations. Our constant involvement, communication and assistance to the City of Boca Raton is designed to provide a comprehensive professional staff that supports the City of Boca Raton’ Risk department. Comprehensive Scope of Risk Management Services Gehring Group provides risk management consulting services and employs risk management and administrative professionals that specialize in implementing and managing risk insurance programs. We understand the unique needs of our public sector clients and do not provide cookie cutter solutions. In our experience, the best way to manage a property and liability insurance program is comprehensively and proactively. The evaluation of a client’s insurance program entails a balance between the desired limits of risk and the cost to insure against these risks. Gehring Group’s team of staff and resources can create customized risk management solutions by identifying opportunities and key risk factors. We remain involved with our clients on a year-round basis, not only at renewal time. We perceive our commitment to be an ongoing extension of the City of Boca Raton’ risk management team.

Page 72 419 For 2020, the insurance market has reached a crossroads. After approximately 20 years of a soft, buyer- friendly insurance market, we are moving toward a firming or hardening market—one that is less friendly to insurance buyers. While the effects of this hardening insurance market on your business will depend on a variety of factors, many organizations will see premium increases for their insurance coverage overall. In fact, for some types of coverage, organizations may see double-digit rate increases at their new renewal. Beyond that, managing a business today is more challenging than ever. Organizations must account for dynamic, short- and long-term trends in their industry, while also addressing trends that affect the economy as a whole. Compounding the issue, all of this is unfolding at a time when the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has upended life and business as we know it. While the full human and economic cost of the COVID-19 pandemic has yet to be seen, it’s clear that it has had a profound influence on organizations across the country. In many cases, organizations are facing challenges related to operational changes, the health and safety of their workforce, new compliance requirements and revenue forecasts. The COVID-19 pandemic is sure to influence the P&C insurance industry, likely from both an operating model and pricing perspective. While this is unwelcome news for many organizations, they are not powerless. Now more than ever, it’s essential for organizations to take a proactive approach when it comes to their risk management efforts and their insurance policies. Put another way—in an insurance and risk environment with many unknowns—organizations should focus on addressing the factors they can influence. It’s important to remember that you are not in this alone. To help you navigate the hardening market, you need a broker who understands your business and its unique risks and will advocate on your behalf. Secondly, you need an insurance broker who can tell your risk story to insurance carriers in a way that will best position your business come renewal time. Finally, you need a broker who understands your industry inside and out, the dynamic insurance landscape and how to provide targeted loss control solutions. Remember, in these uncertain times, Gehring Group is here to provide the guidance and expertise your business needs. Page 73 420 The commercial insurance market is cyclical in nature, fluctuating between hard and soft markets. These fluctuations affect the availability, terms and price of commercial insurance, so it’s helpful to know what to expect in both a hard and soft insurance market. A soft market, which is sometimes called a buyer’s market, is characterized by stable premiums, broader terms of coverage, increased capacity, higher available limits of liability and competition among insurance carriers for new business. A hard market, which is sometimes called a seller’s market, is characterized by increased premium costs, stricter underwriting criteria, less capacity, restricted terms of coverage and less competition among insurance carriers for new business. During a hard market, some organizations may receive conditional or nonrenewal notices from their insurance carrier. What’s more, during hard market cycles, insurance carriers are more likely to exit certain unprofitable lines of insurance. In what was one of the longest soft markets in recent years, organizations across most lines of insurance enjoyed stable premiums and expanded coverage for decades. While the commercial insurance market hardened for a short period of time after the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, the last sustained hard market occurred in the 1980s. However, after years of gradual changes, the market is firming, leading to increased premiums and reduced capacity. A number of different factors affect insurance pricing, but the following are common contributors to the hardening market: Page 74 421 • Catastrophic (CAT) losses—Floods, hurricanes, wildfires and similar disasters are increasingly common and devastating. Years of costly disasters like these have compounded losses for insurers, driving up the cost of coverage overall, especially when it comes to commercial property policies. • Inconsistent underwriting profits—Underwriting profits refer to the difference between the premiums an insurer collects and the money it pays out in claims and expenses. When an insurance company collects more in premiums than it pays out in claims and expenses, it will earn an underwriting profit. Conversely, an insurance company that pays more in claims and expenses than it collects in premiums will sustain an underwriting loss. An insurance company’s combined ratio after dividends is a measure of underwriting profitability. This ratio reflects the percentage of each premium dollar an insurance company puts toward spending on claims and expenses. A combined ratio above 100 indicates an underwriting loss. Insurance companies generally do not generate profits from their underwriting operations. In the past 10 years, the commercial insurance industry has only had a combined ratio under 100 four times. • Eroding investment returns—Insurance companies also generate income through investments. Commercial insurance companies typically invest in a variety of stocks, bonds, mortgages and real estate investments. Due to regulations, insurance companies’ largest asset group is typically bonds. These provide stability against underwriting results, which can vary from year to year. When interest rates are high and returns from other investments are solid, insurance companies can make up underwriting losses through their investment income. However, when interest rates are low—like they currently are—insurers must pay close attention to their underwriting standards. Page 75 422 • The economy—The economy as a whole also affects an insurance company’s ability to write new policies. During periods of economic downturn and uncertainty, some organizations may purchase less coverage or forgo insurance altogether. A business’s revenue and payroll, which factor into how premiums set, may decline. This creates an environment where there is less premium income for insurers. • The cost of reinsurance—Simply put, reinsurance is coverage for insurance companies. Carriers often buy reinsurance for risks they can’t or don’t wish to retain fully, including those for severe weather events like hurricanes and wildfires. It’s a way for primary insurers to protect against unforeseen or extraordinary losses. As a result, reinsurance helps to stabilize premiums for regular organizations by making it less of a risk for insurance carriers to write a policy. However, reinsurers have exposures to many of the same events and trends that are affecting insurance companies. For 2020, reinsurance is becoming more expensive to obtain, which is reflected in the overall cost of insurance for organizations. Additional Factors That Influence Your Insurance Rates In addition to the above, the following are additional factors that may influence your insurance rates: The coverage you’re seeking—The forms of insurance you’re are seeking, as well as the details of the coverage (e.g., limits of liability and value of insured property), will affect your insurance pricing. The size of your business—As a general rule, the more employees your business has and the larger your revenue is, the higher you will pay for your insurance. Page 76 423 The industry in which you operate—There are certain industries that carry more risk than others. In general, organizations in these sectors are more likely to file an insurance claim. As a result, organizations involved in risky industries tend to, on average, pay more in insurance premiums. The location of your business—The location of your business will also influence your commercial insurance rates. If your business is located in an area prone to certain natural disasters, insurers may determine that your facility is more at risk for property damage. This increased risk will translate to higher insurance premiums. Your claims history—Your business’s claims history, often referred to as your loss history, will also have an impact on insurance rates. If your business has an extensive claims history, then insurance carriers will tend to consider your company more likely to file future claims. This, in turn, means that your business will be viewed as risky to insure, subjecting you to higher commercial insurance premiums. Put simply, during a hard market, insurance buyers may face complex considerations regarding their insurance coverage. Thankfully, organizations are not without recourse in the face of a hard market. Business owners who proactively address risk losses and manage exposures will be better prepared for a hardening market than those who do not. Furthermore, those who educate themselves on the trends that influence their insurance will have a greater understanding of what can be done to influence their insurance rates. Page 77 424 Insurance experts often examine how outside influences and trends affect the insurance marketplace, and organizations should follow suit to determine what factors impact their insurance coverage. For 2020, there are a number of sweeping market developments to consider. Spotlight on Social Inflation As an insurance buyer, you may have heard the term “social inflation” used to explain one of the factors driving up the cost of insurance in today’s market. In general, this term refers to societal trends that influence the ever-rising costs of insurance claims and lawsuits. As the insurance market changes, it’s important for organizations to understand what’s currently driving social inflation. Litigation Funding One of the factors driving social inflation has to do with increased litigation or, more specifically, litigation funding. Litigation funding is when a third party provides financing for a lawsuit. In exchange, the third party receives a portion of the settlement. In the past, the steep cost of attorney fees would often scare plaintiffs away from taking a lawsuit to trial. But, through litigation funding, most or all of the costs associated with litigation are covered by a third party, which has increased the volume of cases being pursued. Not only is litigation funding becoming more common, but it also increases the cost of litigation, sometimes to seven figures. This is because plaintiffs are able to take cases further and seek larger settlements. Tort Reform Tort reform refers to laws that are designed to reduce litigation. Specifically, tort reforms are used to prevent frivolous lawsuits and preserve laws that prevent abusive practices against organizations. Many states have enacted tort reforms over the last several decades, leading to fewer claims and caps on punitive damages. However, in recent years, a number of states have modified tort reforms or challenged them as unconstitutional. Opponents believe tort reforms lower settlements to the point where attorneys are less likely to take on new cases and help victims get justice for their injuries or other damages. Further complicating matters, tort reform is subject to uncertainty, as it’s largely tied to political leanings and the interests of individual states. Should tort reform continue to erode, there could be fewer restrictions on punitive and noneconomic damages, statutes of limitations and contingency fees— all of which can drive up the cost of claims and exacerbate social inflation. Plaintiff-friendly Legal Decisions and Large Jury Rewards The overall public sentiment toward large organizations and corporations is deteriorating, and anti- corporate culture is more prevalent than ever. A number of factors are contributing to this increasing distrust, including highly publicized issues related to the mishandling of personal data and social campaigns. This has had a considerable impact on how organizations are perceived by a jury in court, and organizations are held to a high standard for issues related to the way they conduct their business. In fact, juries are increasingly likely to sympathize with plaintiffs, especially if a business’s reputation has Page 78 425 been tarnished in some way in the past. As a result, plaintiff attorneys are likely to play to a jury’s emotions rather than the facts of the case. Compounding this issue, there’s an increasing public perception that organizations—particularly large ones—can afford the cost of any damages. This means juries are likely to have less reservations when it comes to awarding damages. In the current environment, nuclear verdicts (awards of $10 million or more) have become more common. Extreme Weather Events Examined Extreme weather events—like hurricanes, tornadoes, hailstorms and wildfires—continue to make headlines as they become increasingly devastating and costly. Making matters worse, these events aren’t limited to one geographic area or weather event, impacting organizations and residents across the United States. In 2019, wildfires plagued the West Coast, and California alone recorded more than 47,000 wildfires. In the Midwest, flooding along the Mississippi River and its tributaries caused an estimated $6.2 billion in damage across 13 states. On the East Coast, the 2019 hurricane season caused billions of dollars in damage and affected multiple states along the Atlantic Ocean. Many experts believe severe storms, extreme temperatures, wildfires and flooding are the new norm. As these catastrophes become more frequent, the insurance industry and the economy will likely struggle to keep up with the losses. This is even more apparent when you consider that insured losses (excluding damage caused by floods) reached $106 billion in 2017 and $50 billion in 2018. Moving forward, expect to see more emphasis around weather readiness, especially from an insurer’s perspective. Policyholders that take steps to fortify their property (e.g., using fire-resistive materials and reinforcing roofs) could enjoy premium discounts. COVID-19 The COVID-19 outbreak continues to be a top-of-mind concern for organizations and individuals across the globe, and almost every country has reported cases of the virus. As the COVID-19 pandemic becomes increasingly widespread, it’s not only raising fears about the well-being of the general public, but it’s also disrupting life as we know it. In response to the pandemic, millions of individuals across the United States were subject to stay-at- home orders. While many essential organizations (e.g., hospitals, pharmacies, grocery stores and gas stations) remained open during the COVID-19 pandemic, other operations deemed nonessential shut down temporarily or changed the nature of their operations. While the full cost of COVID-19, has yet to be determined, one thing is certain: The COVID-19 outbreak has significantly tested the preparedness of organizations everywhere. Moving forward, it’s critical to take a hard look at your continuity and disaster response plans. You should also partner with experts who not only understand the risks your business faces on a daily basis, but can also help you prepare for the unexpected. This is particularly important during times of hardship and uncertainty. Page 79 426 Price forecasts are based on industry reports for individual lines of insurance. Forecasts are subject to change and are not a guarantee of premium rates. Insurance premiums are determined by a multitude of factors and differ per organization. These forecasts should be viewed as general information and not insurance or legal advice. LINE OF COVERAGE PRICE FORECAST Commercial property • Non-CAT exposed: +10% to +20% • CAT exposed: +10% to +30% • CAT exposed with poor loss history: +25% to 50% General liability • Overall: +4.5% to +16% Excess and umbrella liability • High risk: +25% or more • Low to moderate risk: +15% or more Commercial auto • Overall: +6% to +12% or more Workers’ compensation • Overall: -2% to +2% Cyber liability • Overall: Flat to +10% Public officials liability • Public sector: +17% to +50% or more • Public sector with poor loss history: +5% to +35% Employment practices liability • Public sector: +5% to +25% Page 80 427 The commercial property market continues to harden, and price increases are expected to accelerate throughout 2020. This has been a trend in the market for the past few years. In fact, commercial property rates have increased every quarter since Q3 2017. An increasing number of weather-related catastrophes and natural disasters (e.g. wildfires, hurricanes, windstorms, hail and floods) have put stress on insurance companies to cover their losses, driving up premiums. While losses from natural disasters were down in 2019 compared to 2017 and 2018, insurance carriers are still monitoring their exposure to these events closely. Additionally, attritional property losses—losses other than those related to major catastrophes or exposures—are on the rise and are a cause for concern for many insurance carriers. In response to these trends, insurance carriers are reducing their capacity and refining their appetite for certain risks. In some cases, insurers are exiting markets for certain industries. This is especially true for particularly high-risk operations with poor loss control practices or those located in natural disaster- prone areas. Page 81 428 Trends to Watch • Unfavorable renewals—In many cases, premium increases will be unavoidable. However, these increases will vary based on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, a business’s location, industry, loss history, CAT exposures and loss control measures. • Carrier selectivity and stricter underwriting—Carriers are focusing on their underwriting profitability more so than in years past and are facing less pressure to bring in new business. This allows carriers to be more selective about the risks they are willing to write. Underwriting criteria are expected to tighten, and loss control techniques will be scrutinized more than ever before. • Increased submission volume—For 2020, we anticipate that insurers will see an increase in commercial property applications. This increase in submission volume will likely allow carriers to apply greater scrutiny to new applicants and be more selective when renewing risks. Tips for Insurance Buyers • Work with your insurance broker to begin the renewal process early in order to put your best foot forward. • Examine the design of your property insurance with your insurance broker. • Gather as much data as possible regarding your exposures and existing risk management techniques. Be sure to work with your insurance broker to highlight any business continuity plans and loss control measures you have in place. • Address any open insurance carrier recommendations prior to renewals. Insurers will be looking at your loss control initiatives closely. Taking the appropriate steps to reduce your risks whenever possible can make you more attractive to underwriters. Page 82 429 Overall, liability lines have seen significant rate increases annually, as worsening loss trends make underwriting profitability more difficult. Unlike in previous years, rate predictions for various liability lines are no longer mixed, and single-digit increases are expected for virtually all buyers. While there are several contributing factors to the hardening liability market, much of it has to do with insurers being more selective. In fact, insurers are leaning into conservative underwriting approaches and refraining from using surplus capital to write new business. Some carriers are exiting the market altogether due to claims severity, and many are unwilling to write primary liability lines on a standalone basis. Compounding the issue, it’s unlikely that competition for premium dollars will slow rate hikes in any meaningful way. These reduced capacity and rate fluctuation trends will no doubt affect a variety of industries. Trends to Watch • Increased medical costs—Advances in health care have made treatment more effective, and people are living longer, fuller lives after a serious accident. While this is a positive trend, it has had an impact on compensatory damages and benefits, particularly when they are paid out over a lifetime. Additionally, annual medical cost inflation is averaging between 3% to 6%, which has also increased claims costs. • Social inflation—Social inflation generally refers to the rising costs of litigation and insurance claims. These rising costs are the result of societal trends and views toward increased litigation, broader contract interpretations, plaintiff-friendly legal decisions and large jury awards. Together, these factors can raise the cost of insurance. Tips for Insurance Buyers • Work with your insurance broker to educate yourself on key market changes affecting your rates and how to respond using loss control measures. • Examine your general liability coverage with your insurance broker to ensure limits match up with your insurance needs. Page 83 430 The excess and umbrella liability market is experiencing significant disruption and is proving to be more challenging than the markets for primary coverage. In the excess and umbrella market, insurance carriers are adjusting their underwriting appetites, reducing capacity and increasing attachment points. In most cases, rates on excess layers are exceeding those of primary ones. What’s more, insureds have seen an uptick in nonrenewal notices on various layers throughout their liability towers. Market conditions are not only being dictated by claims experienced by insurance carriers, but also by fears over trends pushing claims costs even higher. These trends include, but are not limited to, litigation funding, nuclear verdicts and medical care cost inflation. For 2020, we anticipate a challenging excess and umbrella market for many insureds. Underwriters are likely to apply caution when examining risks, and most insurance carriers are unlikely to increase capacity or expand the writing of new business. Trends to Watch • Litigation funding—Litigation funding refers to the practice of having a third party finance a lawsuit in exchange for a portion of the settlement. This practice is becoming increasingly common and is driving up the cost of litigation and settlements. • Nuclear verdicts—Verdicts that surpass $10 million are becoming more and more common risks for organizations. The uptick in nuclear verdicts, especially in the commercial auto space, has put pressure on the excess and umbrella market. • Changes at the insurance carrier level—In light of market turbulence for excess/umbrella coverage, many insurance carriers are reducing their lead umbrella capacity from $25 million to less than $15 million. Tips for Insurance Buyers • Plan for price increases and difficult renewals. In many cases, applications will have to be submitted earlier than normal. • Work with your insurance broker to submit a quality application. Because of the firming market conditions for excess and umbrella layers, submission activity is up. Insurance companies are dealing with a lot of submissions for both renewals and new business. In this environment, poor applications are likely to be denied by underwriters. Page 84 431 Exposures related to commercial auto insurance are vast, and a number of industry changes, as well as the frequency and severity of claims, have had a significant impact on this insurance market. While commercial auto rates have been climbing for years, many carriers are still finding it difficult to maintain profitability for commercial auto insurance. In fact, 2019 was the ninth year in a row that insurance carriers had a combined ratio in excess of 100 for commercial auto lines. Rates for commercial auto insurance are likely to increase in 2020 and beyond. While some insureds will see more profound rate increases, we anticipate that the overwhelming majority of organizations with commercial automobile exposures will experience cost increases, regardless of their industry or vehicle class. Trends to Watch • Distracted driving incidents—While many factors can lead to a crash, distracted driving is one of the most common causes of accidents. As these incidents have become more frequent, insurance rates have climbed in tandem, creating a risk management challenge for insureds and a profitability challenge for insurance carriers that sell commercial auto insurance. Page 85 432 • Driver shortages—A shortage of experienced drivers is taxing many organizations when it comes to commercial auto exposures. While this driver shortage is most profound for over-the- road trucking companies, it’s also affecting organizations in just about every other industry as well. Increasingly, organizations are struggling to recruit and retain experienced drivers. This has forced many employers to hire inexperienced drivers who are more likely to be involved in accidents. • Increasing medical costs—In general, medical costs have been rising steadily over the past decade. In fact, losses for bodily injury liability insurance claims increased 10% over a five-year period alone. These increased costs have affected multiple lines of insurance, including commercial auto. • Increasing vehicle repair costs—Technological advancements have made vehicles safer and more efficient. However, as commercial vehicles are outfitted with a variety of sophisticated components, they are becoming increasingly expensive to repair. Tips for Insurance Buyers • Examine your loss control practices relative to your fleet and drivers. Enhance your driver safety programs by implementing or modifying policies on safe driving, distracted driving and substance abuse. • Design your driver training programs to fit your needs and the exposures facing your business. Regularly retrain drivers on safe driving techniques. • Ensure you are hiring qualified drivers by using motor vehicle records (MVRs) to vet a driver’s past experience and moving violations. Disqualify any drivers with an unacceptable driving record. Review MVRs on a regular basis to ensure that drivers maintain good driving records. Define the number and types of violations a driver can have before they lose their driving privileges. • Consider technology solutions, such as telematics, where appropriate to strengthen and supplement other loss control measures. • Implement a driver- or employee-retention program to maintain experienced drivers. • Examine your Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) BASIC scores to identify gaps in your fleet management programs, if applicable. • Determine whether you should make structural changes to your commercial auto policies by speaking with your insurance broker. Page 86 433 In contrast to other casualty lines, the markets for workers’ compensation insurance remain competitive in most states and industries. In fact, premiums for workers’ compensation policies have steadily declined for nearly a decade. This is due in large part to favorable loss ratios for workers’ compensation coverage in most states. What’s more, combined ratios have improved to their lowest level in more than 50 years, and the National Council on Compensation Insurance (NCCI) estimates that private insurers had $5 billion loss reserve redundancy at the start of 2019. For 2020, we anticipate that workers’ compensation trends will be similar to what they’ve been in previous years. Again, workers’ compensation is mostly a buyer’s market, as the number of workplace injuries continues to decline at a steady pace and combined ratios stay below 100%. Overall, policies written on guaranteed cost (insured pays a fixed premium) will continue to see competitive pricing. Loss-sensitive plans (final premium is dependent on the actual losses) will also see favorable pricing, although perhaps not as favorable as guaranteed cost plans. Trends to Watch • Large claims—Workers’ compensation lines have seen a decline in overall claim frequency over the last few decades. However, serious accidents still occur, with costs for medical treatment and lost-wage benefits sometimes reaching millions of dollars. In recent years, there has been an uptick in so-called “mega claims.” Mega claims are essentially workers’ compensation claims in excess of $10 million. • Expansion of telemedicine—Telemedicine uses technology to facilitate communication between a doctor and patient who are not in the same physical location. It can be used to provide medical evaluations, diagnosis and treatments. Many praise telemedicine, as it can provide quick and efficient access to care and reduce overall medical costs. Moving forward, expect states to introduce legislation to speed up the adoption of telemedicine. Tips for Insurance Buyers • Implement safety and health programs to address common risks, especially when using a loss- sensitive workers’ compensation program. • Reevaluate the effectiveness of pre-loss safety initiatives and post-loss claims handling procedures. Page 87 434 Over the past few years, new insurance carriers have been entering the cyber insurance market. This has helped increase competition among insurance carriers for market share. During this period, capacity for cyber insurance has grown, while coverage terms have expanded. Competition and ample capacity have also allowed insurance carriers to absorb the impact of cyber claims, while keeping premiums in check. Overall, it has been a buyer’s market for this line of coverage. While we anticipate a relatively stable market for cyber insurance, there are growing headwinds in the industry. Insurance carriers are increasingly concerned with a growing volume of cyber attacks. Most notably, 2019 saw a dramatic increase in ransomware and social engineering attacks across the United States. For 2020, premiums for cyber insurance are likely to remain flat or have modest increases for most organizations, particularly for smaller firms. However, insureds with higher levels of revenue or that operate in challenging sectors (e.g., retail, hospitality, health care and finance) could see more pronounced premium increases. Trends to Watch • The rise of ransomware attacks—Ransomware refers to a type of malware that can breach and encrypt a victim’s files. The victim is then forced to make a ransom payment in order to regain access to their data. Ransomware attacks are among the most expensive for organizations to deal with. The frequency of ransomware has been difficult to determine, as many organizations pay off attackers without notifying the authorities. However, most indicators show that these attacks have exploded in frequency over the past two years. Making matters worse, the average loss from a ransomware attack now exceeds $1 million. • Human error—Human error continues to rank as one of the leading causes of data breaches. In fact, according to research from the Ponemon Institute, nearly 25% of all data breaches are caused by human error. • Data protection laws—Over the past few years, multiple international (e.g. the United Kingdom and Canada) as well as domestic jurisdictions have implemented new data protection laws. Laws like the California Consumer Privacy Act create new liabilities and compliance considerations for organizations that handle data. As the world becomes more interconnected, more states are likely to pass similar legislation. • Phishing—Phishing emails continue to be one of the most common causes of data breaches. This threat refers to fraudulent emails that try to trick employees into revealing sensitive Page 88 435 information. More and more, cyber criminals are developing “phishing kits,” which are shared among criminals and can be used to deploy a large volume of phishing campaigns. Tips for Insurance Buyers • Work with your insurance broker to understand the different types of cyber coverage available and secure a policy that’s unique to your needs. Determine whether your organization should purchase standalone cyber liability coverage or make modifications to your current policy. • Take advantage of loss control services offered by insurance carriers to help strengthen your cyber security. • Focus on employee training to prevent cyber crime from affecting your operations. Employees should be aware of the latest cyber threats and ways to prevent them from occurring. • Consider how a cyber incident could affect your operations and plan accordingly. Business continuity and emergency action plans should account for first-party as well as third-party cyber incidents. Page 89 436 The POL market is in a period of transition. After a decade of favorable pricing for organizations, insurance carriers have tightened their underwriting criteria for POL risks. In 2019, organizations purchasing POL insurance started seeing not only higher premiums and retentions, but reduced capacity as well. We anticipate that the POL insurance market will continue to firm over the next 12 to 18 months. Rate increases are the new norm, and, for certain segments and larger programs, finding willing capacity for new or replacement layers could prove difficult. There are a number of factors forcing insurance companies to reexamine their approach to POL insurance. In recent years, insurance companies have found themselves paying increasingly expensive claims at a more frequent rate. POL claims are often eating through primary layers of coverage and impacting excess layers. Costly security class action lawsuits, mergers and acquisitions (M&A) class suits and derivative actions are more common than ever. Finally, there is a longer tail when it comes to POL claims, and some insurance companies are still paying out losses from claims that occurred during the financial crisis. For 2020, organizations with a poor claims history and organizations with significant exposures are seeing higher premiums and self-insured retentions (SIR). Additionally, organizations with layered POL programs will notice that excess premiums are increasing faster than primary ones. Trends to Watch •Environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues—ESG is generally defined as a broad set of environmental, social and corporate governance considerations that may impact an Page 90 437 organization’s ability to execute its strategy and create value over the long term. Investors, regulators and the public increasingly expect organizations and their boards to address ESG issues. • Cyber liability in the boardroom—Now more than ever, corporate boards are under the microscope when it comes to their role in overseeing cyber risks. Cyber claims often cross over into POL claims when there are allegations that the Public Officials did not put the proper safeguards or insurance coverage into place before a cyber incident. • Claims driven by workplace mismanagement—Following social initiatives like the #MeToo movement, there’s intense pressure for corporations to hold leadership accountable for their actions when responding to allegations of workplace harassment. Over the past few years, there has been an increase in POL claims alleging that corporate boards failed to control, prevent or stop workplace issues. Tips for Insurance Buyers • Examine your POL program structure and limits alongside your insurance broker to ensure they are appropriate and take market conditions and trends into account. • Work with insurance brokers, loss control experts and underwriters to gain a better understanding of your POL exposures and cost drivers. • Focus on addressing exposures related to cyber liability, M&A activity and workforce management. Page 91 438 Like many other lines of insurance, the EPL insurance market is also firming. This is due in large part to a higher frequency and severity of claims in recent years as well as increased legislative activity at the state level. In the current market, there has been a lot of upward pressure on both premiums and SIR rates, especially in certain areas of the country. Changes to state and local laws, more enforcement activity, social movements like #MeToo and #TimesUp, and an increased focus on the gender pay disparity are just a few notable shifts impacting EPL exposures for employers. Moreover, judges and juries seem increasingly sympathetic to plaintiffs in employment-related actions. Over the past few years, there has been an acceleration of large judgments (more than $5 million) issued against employers for EPL claims. All of these trends are impacting the market for EPL insurance. Many insurance carriers are decreasing their appetite to write new EPL business. For 2020, we anticipate that most organizations will see rate increases between 5% and 15% on EPL policies. However, larger firms and those that operate in riskier states (e.g., California, Illinois, Florida, New York and Texas) may see larger percentage increases. Trends to Watch • Increased litigation—While litigation for workplace harassment fell slightly in 2019 as compared to 2018, overall levels of litigation for workplace claims are still at near-record highs. Additional trends, such as an aging workforce, could further the volume of legal actions filed against employers. • State-level activity—In 2019, more than 20 states passed laws that expand employer liability related to workplace incidents. Among other requirements, these new laws expanded protections for victims of workplace harassment, created new training requirements for employers related to sexual harassment, extended statutes of limitation and limited the use of nondisclosure agreements. This trend is likely to continue for the foreseeable future as additional states consider similar measures. • Wage and hour enforcement—In 2019, we saw record levels of Department of Labor enforcement for wage and hour violations. While EPL policies often exclude coverage for wage and hour violations, standalone policies are available and may be appropriate for some larger companies. Beyond insurance, employers should pay close attention to wage and hour rules on a state, federal and local level. • Gig workers—In what’s referred to as a gig economy, employers are relying on independent contractors and freelancers more than ever before. And while this reduces payroll costs and tax Page 92 439 liabilities, it can also increase the risk of misclassification claims. Moving forward, it’s likely many states will adjust their laws to discourage and prevent employee misclassification. What’s more, additional states may consider laws like California’s Assembly Bill 5, which makes it easier for independent contractors to claim employee status. • Possible COVID-19 fallout—Covid-19 has introduced a host of workplace issues that employers must consider. It’s yet to be seen if the fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic will lead to an uptick in lawsuits being filed against employers for issues related to wrongful termination or breaches of privacy. Tips for Insurance Buyers • Review your employee handbook and related policies. Ensure you have all appropriate policies in place, including language on discrimination, harassment and retaliation. • Ensure you are compliant with any recent developments that affect how you manage your workforce or create additional employment practices liability. • Investigate all claims of discrimination and harassment immediately, and administer discipline and training as necessary. • Document all evaluations, employee complaints and situations that lead to employee termination. • Pay particular attention to issues that could lead to wage and hour complaints. Page 93 440 It can sometimes seem as if the forces determining your insurance rates are beyond your control. But, as an insurance buyer, it’s important to know how your premiums are calculated, what trends influence the market and what you can do to get the best price. Your claims history—which you can control—has an enormous impact on whether your rates go up or down. That’s where implementing a solid risk management plan will help steer your pricing in a more favorable direction, both now and in future renewal periods. The following are five key components of a successful risk management strategy: In addition to implementing the above risk management strategies, working alongside an experienced insurance broker is equally crucial. Qualified brokers can help their clients analyze their business, understand their exposures and establish a suite of customized insurance policies that act as a last line of defense against claims. A broker will also thoroughly explain your policies, notifying you of any additional considerations to keep in mind. Remember, the insurance landscape is complex, and while the predictions found in this outlook are based on expert research, they are subject to change.

Requested Action: Staff recommends approval of Proposed Resolution No. R24-274. Explanation of Request: The current Boynton Beach Fire Department radios, procured in 2016, have reached their life expectancy and surpassed their warranties. Since 2016, portable radio technology has evolved with new features and enhancements. A six-month review and testing of the new Motorola Apex radios was conducted, and it was determined that these radios will not only replace the outdated equipment but will offer the Fire Department increased safety, reliability, range, and performance. The total price of the replacement radios is $1,300,700.05, which includes a credit of $36,000. Rather than obtaining private financing at a higher interest rate, City staff proposes financing the purchase through the City's Utility Department at a 1% interest rate, which will be paid back by the Fire Department starting on October 1, 2025, in the amount of $333,362.76 and subsequent years ending on October 1, 2029. These radios will be procured utilizing NASPO Contract No. 00318, which complies with the City's procurement policy and piggyback exemption. The pricing has been checked and verified by the City's procurement division. How will this affect city programs or services? The Motorola Apex radios will provide the City with enhanced safety and technical features unavailable with the sun-setting radio equipment for portables and mobile radios. A few of these features include: 480 1. Real-time location tracking (to include elevation when in multi-level buildings) of the radios allows dispatch personnel to direct assistance to officers who may have moved away from their patrol vehicle and needs assistance or during a medical emergency. 2. The Apex can switch to cellular service automatically if the radio cannot transmit on RF frequency. This provides statewide coverage and failover during a radio tower outage or severe weather event. They can also be used if the department is deployed out of the City for mutual aid. 3. Officers and other users can voice announce the channel they need to switch to without looking down or taking attention off a subject or incident. 4. Over-the-air programming: reduced downtime of officers and radios to facilitate programming and updates. 5. Adjacent agency channels can also be programmed into the radio remotely when that access is provided. 6. The radios have a better display of the radio status that is easy to ready for the firefighters. 7. Unconditional warranty for all failures, including accidental damage. Regardless of how it was damaged. 8. More rugged design provides increased resistance to heat, sunlight, and harsh environments from previous models. 9. Improved battery life and faster charging rates keep devices in service longer. 10. Ambient noise reduction provides clearer audio transmissions. Fiscal Impact: There are several fiscal benefits of approving the procurement of these new portable radios with Motorola: 1. The City will save over $124,000.00 by paying the total cost in full versus financing with the vendor. 2. The trade-in credit of $36,000.00 for our old outdated radios.

It offers a durable design with “pick-up-and-go” functionality, optimizing ease-of-use and focused communications in almost all environments.  DURABLE AND EASY TO USE  The APX N50 enhances operations with a front display with an upgraded user interface for better readability and loud and clear audio for reliable, everyday use. Additionally, it offers extended battery life, a shorter antenna, and Bluetooth compatibility with audio accessories, promoting efficient communications between first responders.  Adaptive Audio  For first responders in loud environments, the APX N50 offers adaptive audio that enhances voice quality and minimizes background noise. The APX N50 includes two High Dynamic Range (HDR) microphones with high overload point pickup that reproduces voice with clarity and reduces audio clipping and distortion, even when shouting. The radio has custom speakers that use noise cancellation technology to amplify loud and clear audio, and help make every syllable intelligible. An enhanced audio engine dynamically adjusts the N50 in any environment by using algorithms to filter out unpredictable background noise and wind while using multiple microphones to track voice from every angle, allowing first responders to speak into the radio without compromising voice quality. Additional environmentally aware audio features receive volume leveling and noise sensing volume control–the radio will automatically adjust for loud or soft talkers and the changing ambient noise levels. These features allow first responders to keep their eyes forward and remain focused on situations as they unfold.      Essential and Secure P25 Communications  The APX N50 is certified compliant with P25 standards and supports digital and analog trunking, FDMA and TDMA, and Integrated Voice and Data. All P25 communications over the N50 are safe and secure–it offers software and hardware encryption, single- and multi key encryption, and P25 Authentication, protecting communications during daily operations.  Reliable Connectivity  Using the APX N50 lets first responders stay connected across disparate networks. It is equipped with Wi-Fi®, Bluetooth®, and GPS features, bringing future-ready applications, services, and best-in-class connectivity to everyday use. APX N50 radios support 7/800 MHz frequency bands across radio systems, with minimal intervention by the radio user.       QUOTE-2504538BBFD - APX FLEETREPLACEMENT     Any sales transaction following Motorola's quote is based on and subject to the terms and conditions of the valid and executed written contract between Customer and Motorola (the""Underlying Agreement"") that authorizes Customer to purchase equipment and/or services or license software (collectively ""Products""). If no Underlying Agreement exists betweenMotorola and Customer, then Motorola's Standard Terms of Use and Motorola's Standard Terms and Conditions of Sales and Supply shall govern the purchase of the Products.  Page 18   512 SmartConnect over Wi-Fi  SmartConnect is a subscription service that allows first responders to access critical intelligence no matter where the mission takes them. When P25 networks are unavailable, the APX N50 will maintain functionality and voice quality by automatically switching to an available broadband network, enabling connectivity outside of radio system coverage. Voice information and signals between radios and control are encrypted, ensuring that all transmissions are secure.  The APX N50 can use SmartConnect when directly connected to Wi-Fi hotspots, through an in-vehicle LTE modem, or over a satellite connection. Additionally, the radio will indicate to users when SmartConnect is active by displaying a blue bar on-screen. Managing and Provisioning Devices  APX N50 can be programmed in two ways: one-at-a-time through Customer Programming Service (“CPS”) or through a combination of CPS and batch programming over Wi-Fi available with the radio management (“RM”) software.  CPS is a proprietary, Windows-based application, used to configure APX subscriber radios in offline situations that include provisioning, networking, and monitoring tools that provide greater awareness and faster radio management. The CPS application offers drag-and-drop, clone-wizard, and basic import/ export functions that allow the addition of new software and feature enhancements. APX N radios can be programmed one-at-a-time on a local PC, via secure USB port connection, with TLS-PSK based encryption. Once loaded, subscriber radios are read and edited, and codeplugs and templates can be saved and duplicated to program other fleet radios  Batch Programming is available through the RM software for simultaneous programming and upgrading throughout the radio fleet. With Batch Programming, up to 16 radios can be programmed at once over a Wi-Fi connection. This reduces programming time and ensures that the radio fleet is always up-to-date and ready-to-use in the field.  Device Management Services  Device Management Services (“DMS”) packages provide programming, management, and maintenance services to maximize the effectiveness of this APX N50 solution, while reducing maintenance risk, workload, and total cost of ownership. DMS tackles a range of customer needs, whether the solution is self-maintained or managed by Motorola Solutions.       QUOTE-2504538BBFD - APX FLEETREPLACEMENT     Any sales transaction following Motorola's quote is based on and subject to the terms and conditions of the valid and executed written contract between Customer and Motorola (the""Underlying Agreement"") that authorizes Customer to purchase equipment and/or services or license software (collectively ""Products"").

RECITALS A. Pursuant to Legislative authorization, Enterprise Services, on behalf of the State of Washington, is authorized to develop, solicit, and establish Cooperative Purchasing Master Agreements for goods and services to support Washington state agencies. See RCW 39.26.050(1). The Washington State Legislature has authorized Enterprise Services to make these Cooperative Purchasing Master Agreements available, pursuant to agreement in which Enterprise Services ensures full cost recovery, to other local or federal government agency or entity, public benefit nonprofit organizations, or any tribes located in the State of Washington. See RCW 39.26.050(1) & (2). B. The Washington State Legislature also has authorized Enterprise Services to participate in, sponsor, conduct, or administer certain cooperative purchasing agreements for the procurement of goods or services. See RCW 39.26.060(1). One of the approaches that Enterprise Services utilizes to participate in cooperative purchasing agreements with other states is NASPO ValuePoint. C.

Under Washington law, at the time of solicitation, states may provide supplemental substantive terms and conditions to inform the competitive procurement. In addition, pursuant to their Participating Addendum, states may require certain administrative terms and conditions (e.g., a vendor management fee for sales within the state, state registration and reporting). Contractor, however, has no obligation to condition execution of a Participating Addendum on substantive terms and conditions that were not competitively procured. E. Enterprise Services, as part of a cooperative purchasing competitive governmental procurement, with administrative support from NASPO ValuePoint, issued Competitive Solicitation No. 00318 dated November 16, 2020 regarding Public Safety Communications Products, Services and Solutions ("Public Safety Radio"). Sixteen (16) states indicated an intent to utilize the resulting Cooperative Purchasing Master Agreement. F. Enterprise Services and a stakeholder team consisting of representatives from Washington, California, Alaska, Oregon, Montana, Tennessee, Colorado and Nevada evaluated all responsive bids to the Competitive Solicitation and identified Contractor as an Apparent Successful Bidder for the Category identified above. G. Enterprise Services determined that entering into this Cooperative Purchasing Master Agreement will meet the cooperative purchasing needs and be in the best interest of the State of Washington. H. The purpose of this Cooperative Purchasing Master Agreement is to enable Participating or Purchasing Entities to purchase Public Safety Radio products and services, in the awarded Category as set forth herein. AGREEMENT Now THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises, covenants, and conditions set forth herein, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 1. TERM. The term of this Master Agreement begins January 1, 2022 and ends on December 31, 2026; provided, however that, the contract term shall be extended for twenty-four (24) months if, in Enterprise Services' sole, reasonable judgement, which shall occur no later than June 30, 2025, Contractor meets the following performance metrics: COOPERATIVE PURCHASING MASTER AGREEMENT No.00318 PUBLIC SAFETY COMMUNICATIONS PRODUCTS,SERVICES&SOLUTIONS 2 Rev.2020-03-11)532 Reports: Contractor provides timely and accurate reports as detailed in this Master Agreement and Participating Addendums; and Administrative Fee Payments: Contractor provides timely and accurate Administrative Fee payments as detailed in this Master Agreement and Participating Addendums.

APX N70 radios support 7/800 MHz frequency bands across radio systems with minimal intervention by the radio user. Managing and Provisioning Devices APN N70 provides users greater awareness and faster radio management through Customer Programming Software CPS"), Radio Management ("RM"), or the Radio Central programming. These tools transform accurate data into smarter action by enabling dispatchers and network managers to keep radios in the field, make informed operational decisions, and, above all, protect first responders'focus and safety.

Page 7 567 a MOTOROLA SOLUTIONS QUOTE-2587324 BBPD - FLEET REPLACEMENT 217 APX N70) 07/30/2024 CPS is a proprietary, Windows-based application used to configure APX subscriber radios in offline situations. The CPS application offers drag-and-drop, clone-wizard, and basic import/export functions that allow for the addition of new software and feature enhancements. APX N radios can be programmed one-at-a-time on a local PC, via secure USB port connection, with TLS-PSK based encryption. Once loaded, subscriber radios are read, and edited, and copdeplugs and templates can be saved and duplicated to program other fleet radios. Radio Management Batch Programming is available through the RM software for simultaneous programming and upgrading throughout the radio fleet. With Batch Programming, up to 16 radios can be programmed at once over a Wi-Fi connection. This reduces programming time and ensures that the radio fleet is always up-to-date and ready-to-use in the field. Device Management Services Device Management Services ("DMS") packages provide programming, management, and maintenance services to maximize the effectiveness of this APX N70 solution, while reducing maintenance risk, workload, and total cost of ownership. DMS tackles a range of customer needs, whether the solution is self-maintained or managed by Motorola Solutions. Using Motorola Solutions' cloud-based Radio Central Programming, APX N70 supports faster provisioning and deployment to get devices in the hands of first responders and out into the field. Parameters such as talk groups, interface options, and security keys can be programmed remotely within minutes. The DMS package provides access to batch programming with Radio Central Programming or one-at-a-time basic programming with Customer Programming Service, described below. Radio Central Radio Central Programming streamlines the APX N70 out-of-the-box experience with a few simple steps. Users will power on the device and view a boot-up animation. Status bar icons on the front display indicate when a connection is made and an update download is initiated. If the APN N70 device is being started for the first time, a "peek-in" device management notification will indicate that the default configuration is detected. When the update download is complete, the device reboots and installs the update. When the install is complete, the device goes back to the full home screen and notifies the user that the update is complete. From power on to provisioning, the process takes less than a minute. For Encryption and Authentication users, a KVL needs to be connected to the radio to use those services. APX N70 also features Touchless Key Provisioning ("TKP"), leveraging Radio Central and Key Management Facility to add encryption keys remotely. This streamlined, one-time process reduces the time and effort spent enabling encryption. TKP delivers the initial encryption keys to APN N70 radios. Users can provision encryption on one radio or on batches of radios, further speeding up the encryption process for radio fleets. The figure below illustrates APX N70's faster provisioning process. 0 Any sales transaction following Motorola's quote is based on and subject to the terms and conditions of the valid and executed written contract between Customer and Motorola(the Underlying Agreement"")that authorizes Customer to purchase equipment and/or services or license software(collectively-Products"").If no Underlying Agreement exists between Motorola and Customer,then Motorola's Standard Terms of Use and Motorola's Standard Terms and Conditions of Sales and Supply shall govern the purchase of the Products.

Motorola Solutions Page 1 579 City of Boynton Beach July 30th.2024 Console Additions Section 1 System D 1 .1 Proposed Solution The proposed solution will offer the City of Boynton Beach with two (2) new MCC 7500E dispatch positions. There are operational issues with co-locating the MCC7500 VPM and the MCC7500E consoles. The MCC7500 has a dedicated voice processing module (VPM) hardware so it processes audio slightly quicker than the MCC7500E. If the consoles are in the same room it results in audio issues that create an echo and interference to dispatchers. Because of this known issue, included in the solution is upgrading five (5) existing MCC 7500 Voice Processor Modules (VPM) to MCC7500E. This will allow (2) new MCC7500E positions to be added to the Boynton Beach dispatch, converting the site entirely to the MCC7500E platform without mixing the two dispatch console types. The list below summarizes the proposed console equipment as well as peripherals: Two (2) New MCC 7500E Dispatch Positions CommandCentral Hub 22" Non-touch Monitor 160 Radio Resource Capability License ADP/AES/DES-OFB Encryption Capabilities Two (2) MSI Purpose Built USB Speaker USB Microphone Dual Headset Jacks Enhanced Instant Recall Recorder Footswitch CRYPTR Hardware Key Spares Five (5) Upgraded MCC 7500E Dispatch Positions CommandCentral Hub Two (2) MSI Purpose Built USB Speaker USB Microphone CRYPTR Hardware Key 1 .2 MCC 7500E Console Operation Position The dispatch position supports commercially available accessories, including a USB microphone, USB headset, and USB footswitch, as shown in the figure titled "MCC 7500E Dispatch Position." The following list describes the components included in the proposed configuration.

CommandCentral Hub The CommandCentral Hub functions as a purpose built device capable of both running the dispatch software as well as routing audio from the dispatcher to and from the radio system. The CC Hub will replace the VPM and the PC on the MCC 7500 positions and will save space on the desktop. The CC Hub is a Motorola designed and developed appliance that will be used in all dispatch console designs for many years to come. Computer Display The dispatch position will use a 22-inch "non-touch" Computer Display. Enhanced Integrated Instant Recall Recorder (IRR) The Enhanced IRR seamlessly integrates with the dispatch position's software, allowing audio and call data from any radio or telephony resource to be recorded and easily played back. Call data includes PTT IDs, name of resource, start time and date, and stop time and date. Two (2) analog inputs are available for use with recording audio from external devices. Two (2) analog audio speakers are included with IRR. Desktop Speakers Two (2) audio speakers have been included with each dispatch position and can be configured to transmit audio from a specific talkgroup or set of talkgroups. Each speaker is a self-contained unit, with individual volume controls, and can be placed on a desktop or mounted on a rack or computer display. Headset Jack The dispatch positions will support two (2) headset jacks, both push-to-talk (PTT) and non-PTT- enabled, for simultaneous use by the dispatcher and a supervisor. The headset jack contains two (2) volume controls for the separate adjustment of received radio and telephone audio. Headset The proposed headset consists of two (2) elements. The headset base includes an audio amplifier, a Push-to-Talk switch, and a long cord that connects to the dispatch position. The headset top consists of the earpiece and microphone, as well as a short cable that connects to the headset base. USB Microphone The microphone controls the dispatch position's general transmit and monitor features through two (2) buttons on its base. The microphone can be fastened down or left loose. It can be used alone or in conjunction with a headset. System Description Q MOTOROLA SOLUTIONS Use or disclosure of this proposal is subject to the restrictions on the cover page.

Beach Agenda Item Request Form 7.D Consent Bids and Purchases over $100,000 11/ 4/2024 Meeting Date: 11/ 4/2024 Proposed Resolution No. R24-275- Approve and authorize the Mayor to execute a limited term contract extension with ParkMobile, LLC and increase annual expenditure by $34,000 for fiscal year 24-25 for a total amount of $116,000. Requested Action: Staff recommends approval of Proposed Resolution No. R24-275. Explanation of Request: The City of Boynton Beach currently has a contract with ParkMobile for their parking payment services. This contract is set to expire soon, and the city needs to either renew the existing contract or go through a rebidding process to select a new vendor. Due to delays in the renewal/rebidding process, the city is proposing a limited term contract extension with ParkMobile to ensure continuity of parking payment services for residents and visitors. This extension would allow the city to complete the necessary steps to either seek a new piggyback contract with ParkMobile or conduct a full rebidding process to select a new vendor, without disrupting the current parking payment system. This limited term extension will allow the city to maintain its parking payment capabilities while finalizing the long-term contract arrangements. How will this affect city programs or services? Extending the contract on a limited basis provides continuity of service for citizens while the city explores alternative options through a piggyback agreement or competitive bidding process. Fiscal Impact: The extension maintains the current parking payment fees and rates charged to residents and visitors.

(Tabled from October 15, 2024 meeting). Requested Action: Staff recommends approval of Proposed Ordinance No. 24-017, at second reading. Explanation of Request: The Commission requested that requirements for tree trimming near overhead power lines be added to the City Code, giving the City the authority to regulate tree maintenance near overhead power lines of single-family and duplex properties. This is the main reason for updating this section of the Ordinance. Trees and other vegetation coming into contact with overhead power lines is the primary cause of outages and flickers, according to FPL. Sparking and other dangerous tree situations can also result from trees and other vegetation touching powerlines. Additionally, staff decided to update several other sections of this Ordinance in addition to introducing this new regulation. The updates will clarify certain sections and raise property maintenance standards to help maintain or increase property values by ensuring neighborhoods remain well-kept and safe. How will this affect city programs or services? This will not affect City programs or services.

(a)General.The Board of Trustees of the Boynton Beach General Employees’ Pension Fund 28 has established this Statement of Investment Policy. This policy has been identified by the 29 Board as having the greatest expected investment return and the resulting positive impact on 30 asset values, funded status, and benefits without exceeding a prudent level of risk. The Board 31 determined this policy after evaluating the implications of increased investment return versus 32 increased variability of return for several potential investment policies with varying 33 commitments to different asset classes.34 (b)Purpose.The Board has established this Investment Policy to This Statement of Investment 35 Policy is intended to complement the investment guidelines provided in applicable State 36 Statutes, and local ordinances. The purpose to this Statement is to:37 (1) Provide an unambiguous description of the Board’s risk tolerance, as defined by the 38 asset classes that are considered allowable investments and the percentage allocations 39 to each asset class; the investment manager a more accurate understanding of the 40 trustees’ investment objectives; and41 (2) Emphasize diversification of portfolio investments within each asset class. Indicate 42 the criteria by which the investment manager’s performance will be evaluated.43 (3) Provide rate-of-return objectives and establish formal criteria to monitor and evaluate 44 the performance.45 (c)General objectives.The primary investment objective of the Boynton Beach General 46 Employees' Pension Fund is to achieve the absolute return objective over the near-term, 47 intermediate-term, and longer-term time periods. The secondary objective is to achieve moderate 48 678 Page 3 of 17 CODING:Words in strike through type are deletions from existing law; Words in underlined type are additions. long-term real growth of the assets while minimizing the volatility of returns. To achieve these 49 objectives, the Board of Trustees seeks to create a conservative, well diversified and balanced 50 portfolio of asset classes managed in separate accounts, mutual funds, commingled funds, and/or 51 limited partnerships. The Board has determined that one or more outside investment managers 52 shall be retained to assure that all investments are managed in both a prudent and professional 53 manner and in compliance with the stated investment guidelines. The Board of Trustees will make 54 direct investments in fund structured investments and acknowledges that no guidelines may be 55 imposed on these investments.56 (d) Investment manager responsibilities.57 (1) Within the guidelines and restrictions set forth herein, it is the intention of the Board to 58 give each the investment manager full investment discretion, with respect to assets under its 59 management. The investment managersshall discharge theiritsresponsibilities in the same manner 60 as it would if the Fund fund were governed by the fiduciary, responsibility provisions of the 61 Employee-Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). Although the Fund Trustees fund 62 trustees acknowledge that ERISA does not apply to the Fund as a governmental fund, it hereby 63 imposes the fiduciary provisions of ERISA upon each investment manager whose performance 64 shall conform to the statutory provisions, rules, regulations, interpretations, and case law of 65 ERISA. The investment manager shall acknowledge, in writing, that it is a named fiduciary of the 66 fund.67 68 679 Page 4 of 17 CODING:Words in strike through type are deletions from existing law; Words in underlined type are additions. (2) Each investment manager is expected to provide any reasonable information requested 69 by the Board of Trustees. At a minimum, each manager shall provide a quarterly report detailing 70 their investment activity, the portfolio’s current value, and any changes in investment philosophy 71 or strategy. Each investment manager is expected to meet with the Board of Trustees or their 72 designated representatives periodically to review investment performance and philosophy.73 (3) Unless otherwise provided by the Fund’s Custodian custodian, each investment 74 manager will monitor portfolio activity to minimize uninvested cash balances.75 (4) Each investment manager shall be responsible only for those assets under their 76 management.77 (5) It will be the responsibility of each investment manager to review the monthly 78 valuations provided by the Fund’s custodian and to note, in writing, any significant discrepancies 79 from the valuations provided in their own reports.80 (e)Florida Statute 112.81 (1)Expected annual rate of return.With consideration to rates of return from different 82 asset classes, the Board of Trustees has crafted its investment program in order to 83 deliver an expected rate of return similar to that of the actuarial assumed rate. The 84 Board shall determine for each actuarial valuation, the total expected annual rate of 85 return for the current year, for each of the next several years and for the long term 86 thereafter. The total expected annual rate of return is anticipated to be similar to the 87 actuarial assumed rate of return. This determination is to be filed with the Department 88 of Management Services and with the plan sponsor and consulting actuary.89 680 Page 5 of 17 CODING:Words in strike through type are deletions from existing law; Words in underlined type are additions. (2)Continuing education.The Board of Trustees relies on its consultants and 90 professionals to provide continuing education on pension and investment issues. The 91 Board of Trustees also recognize state and regional conferences as a source of 92 continuing education. The Trustees are encouraged to attend conferences, schools, and 93 other functions periodically in order to fulfill this requirement.94 (3)Filing of investment policy.The investment policy is to be promptly filed with the 95 Department of Management Services, plan sponsor and consulting actuary. The 96 effective date of the investment policy and any amendment thereto shall be the 31st 97 calendar day following the filing date with the plan sponsor.98 (f)Investment objectives.Given the above stated purpose of the Boynton Beach General 99 Employees' Pension Fund, the Board of Trustees recognizes the necessity of a long-term horizon 100 when formulating investment policies and strategies. However, shorter-term investment goals 101 have been established and are intended to provide quantifiable benchmarks to measure and 102 evaluate portfolio return and risk.103 (1) Most investment styles require a full market cycle to allow an investment manager to 104 demonstrate his abilities. A full market cycle is generally defined as a three-to-five-105 year time period. As a result, performance results will be measured over a three-to-106 five-year period. Performance over shorter time periods will be monitored as a means 107 of identifying the trend of results.108 109 681 Page 6 of 17 CODING:Words in strike through type are deletions from existing law; Words in underlined type are additions. (2) The specific investment objectives of the Boynton Beach General Employees’ Pension 110 Fund are as follows:111 a. Absolute Return Objective: The goal of the Boynton Beach General 112 Employees' Pension Fund shall be to achieve an average annual rate of 113 return greater than the applicable actuarial assumed rate of return net of 114 investment expenses over the longer term (3 to 5 years),115 b. Market Return Objective: In order to provide a reference of fund return and 116 risk relative to a similar basket of passive assets, the board has developed a 117 "Target Index". The fund's objective is to achieve a rate of return over the 118 long term (3 to 5 years), which exceeds the return of a Target Index.119 1. The Target Index for the Boynton Beach General Employees' 120 Pension Fund is defined as a 35% investment in the Russell 1000 121 Stock Index, a 15% investment in the Russell 2000 Stock Index, a 122 10% investment in the MSCI Europe, Australasia and Far East Stock 123 Index, a 20% 15% investment in the NCREIF Property Index, and a 124 15% investment in the Bloomberg Barclays Capital Aggregate Bond 125 Index, a 10% investment in the Consumer Price Index plus 3% (CPI 126 +3%).127 c. Peer Return Objective: It is expected that the total rate of return earned by 128 the Fund and the returns earned by the stock and bond portions of the 129 682 Page 7 of 17 CODING:Words in strike through type are deletions from existing law; Words in underlined type are additions. portfolio will each rank in the top 50% when compared to a representative 130 universe of other, similarly managed portfolios.131 (g)Investment guidelines.132 (1) The Board of Trustees has established the following target asset allocation for the entire 133 Boynton Beach General Employees’ Pension Fund:134 Target Allocation (at market) Target Range (at market) Representative Benchmark Public Equity: Domestic Large Cap equity 35%25% - 60% 20% - 40% Russell 1000/S&P 500 Domestic Small/Mid Cap 15%5% - 20%Russell 2000/2500 Foreign equity 10%5% - 25 20%MSCI EAFE Total Equity 60%65% Maximum Fixed income & equivalents Core Fixed income 2015%10 5% - 70 25%Bloomberg Barclays Agg/Int Non-Core / Alt Fixed Income 5%0% - 15%Bloomberg Barclays Agg/Int/CPI + 3% Private Credit 5%0% - 15%CPI +3% Direct Private real estate 2015%5% - 30% 10% - 25% NCREIF Property Index ODCE Cash equivalents 0%0% - 10%T-bills 135 It may be necessary to rebalance the portfolio periodically to maintain policy targets and 136 diversification. The Board of Trustees will monitor each component of the Retirement Plan 137 (including asset class, mutual fund, and portfolio manager asset values) and will adjust as 138 necessary at quarterly meetings. To implement this strategy, the Board has chosen to hire one or 139 more professional investment managers.

Requested Action: Staff recommends approval of Proposed Ordinance No. 24-022, at second reading. Explanation of Request: Based on section 553.73 4(a), Florida Statutes, "Building Construction Standards," the state legislature has provided for local jurisdictions to modify Chapter 1 of the Florida Building Code to deal with local issues and conditions that are unique and distinctive to each jurisdiction. Accordingly, the City of Boynton Beach Building Department has modified Chapter 1 of the Florida Building Codes. The request for adoption includes the following revised sections, added sections clarifications, and text corrections throughout the document. Section 110.3.13 Termites. Strike "2304.13," add "or section 2304.12." Strike "or section 2304.11.6." This is a typo correction. Section 110.11.8.1 Phase One Recertification Inspection (ii) strike "specializing in structural design" and strike "specializing in electrical design. The terms "specializing in structural design" and "specializing in electrical design" are specialized state certifications mainly used in Dade and Broward counties. The specialty licenses are in high demand in Dade and Broward counties and tend to be more expensive. It is the City’s intent to keep the recertification of our Threshold and condominiums as cost effective as possible and to ensure that our aging buildings are safe. 696 How will this affect city programs or services? No impact. Fiscal Impact: No impact.

Permit application forms shall be in the format prescribed by a local administrative board, if applicable, and must comply with the requirements of Section 713.135(5) and (6), Florida Statutes. 716 17 Table of Contents Each application shall be inscribed with the date of application, and the code in effect as of that date. For a building permit for which an application is submitted prior to the effective date of the Florida Building Code, the state minimum building code in effect in the permitting jurisdiction on the date of the application governs the permitted work for the life of the permit and any extension granted to the permit. Effective October 1, 2017, a local enforcement agency shall post each type of building permit application on its website. Completed applications must be able to be submitted electronically to the appropriate division of building safety. Accepted methods of electronic submission include, but are not limited to, submission of applications through an electronic fill-in form available on the division of building safety’s website or through a third-party submission management software.

The Building Official shall examine or cause to be examined applications for permits and amendments thereto within a reasonable time after filing. If the application or the construction documents do not conform to the requirements of pertinent laws, the Building Official shall reject such application in writing, stating the reasons therefore. If the Building Official is satisfied that the proposed work conforms to the requirements of this code and laws and ordinances applicable thereto, the Building Official shall issue a permit therefore as soon as practicable. When authorized through contractual agreement with a school board, in acting on applications for permits, the Building Official shall give first priority to any applications for the construction of, or addition or renovation to, any school or educational facility. 105.3.1.1 If a state university, Florida college or public-school district elects to use a local government’s code enforcement offices, fees charged by counties and municipalities for enforcement of the Florida Building Code on buildings, structures, and facilities of state universities, state colleges, and public-school districts shall not be more than the actual labor and administrative costs incurred for plans review and inspections to ensure compliance with the code. 105.3.1.2 No permit may be issued for any building construction, erection, alteration, modification, repair, or addition unless the applicant for such permit provides to the enforcing agency which issues the permit any of the following documents which apply to the construction for which the permit is to be issued and which shall be prepared by or under the direction of an engineer registered under chapter 471, Florida Statutes: 1. Plumbing documents for any new building or addition which requires a plumbing system with more than 250 fixture units or which costs more than $125,000. 2. Fire sprinkler documents for any new building or addition which includes a fire sprinkler system which contains 50 or more sprinkler heads. Personnel as authorized by chapter 633 Florida Statutes, may design a fire sprinkler system of 49 or fewer heads and may design the alteration of an existing fire sprinkler system if the alteration consists of the relocation, addition 717 18 Table of Contents or deletion of not more than 49 heads, notwithstanding the size of the existing fire sprinkler system. 3. Heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning documents for any new building or addition which requires more than a 15-ton-per-system capacity which is designed to accommodate 100 or more persons or for which the system costs more than $125,000. This paragraph does not include any document for the replacement or repair of an existing system in which the work does not require altering a structural part of the building or for work on a residential one, two, three or four-family structure. An air-conditioning system may be designed by an installing air-conditioning contractor certified under chapter 489, Florida Statutes to serve any building or addition which is designed to accommodate fewer than 100 persons and requires an air-conditioning system with a value of $125,000 or less; and when a 15-ton-per system or less is designed for a singular space of a building and each 15-ton system or less has an independent duct system. Systems not complying with the above require design documents that are to be sealed by a professional engineer. Example 1: When a space has two 10-ton systems with each having an independent duct system, the contractor may design these two systems since each unit (system) is less than 15 tons. Example 2: Consider a small single-story office building which consists of six individual offices where each office has a single three-ton package air conditioning heat pump. The six heat pumps are connected to a single water-cooling tower. The cost of the entire heating, ventilation and air- conditioning work is $47,000 and the office building accommodates fewer than 100 persons. Because the six mechanical units are connected to a common water tower this is considered to be an 18-ton system. NOTE: It was further clarified by the Commission that the limiting criteria of 100 persons and $125,000 apply to the building occupancy load and the cost for the total air-conditioning system of the building. 4. Any specialized mechanical, electrical, or plumbing document for any new building or addition which includes a medical gas, oxygen, steam, vacuum, toxic air filtration, halon, or fire detection and alarm system which costs more than $5,000. Exception: Simplified permitting process for fire alarm system projects. — (1) As used in this section, the term: (a) “Contractor” means a person who is qualified to engage in the business of electrical or alarm system contracting pursuant to a certificate or registration issued by the department under part II of chapter 489, Florida Statutes.

If a fire alarm system project fails an inspection, the contractor must take corrective action as necessary to pass inspection. (5) A contractor must keep a copy of the plans and specifications at a fire alarm system project worksite and make such plans and specifications available to the inspector at each inspection. 5. Electrical documents. See section 471.003(2)(h), Florida Statutes section. Any electrical system meeting the following thresholds are required to be designed by a Florida Registered Engineer. Any system which: (a) Requires an electrical system with a value greater than $125,000; and (b) Requires an aggregate service capacity of greater than 600 amperes (240 volts) on a residential electrical system or greater than 800 amperes (240 volts) on a commercial or industrial electrical system or any multi-phase system. Documents requiring an engineer seal by this part shall not be valid unless a professional engineer who possesses a valid certificate of registration has signed, dated, and stamped such document as provided in section 471.025, Florida Statutes. NOTE: It was further clarified by the Commission that the limiting factor of 240 volt or over is required to be designed by an Engineer. 6.

You have applied for a permit under an exemption to that law. The exemption allows you, as the owner of your property, to act as your own asbestos abatement contractor even though you do not have a license. You must supervise the construction yourself. You may move, remove or dispose of asbestos-containing materials on a residential building where you occupy the building and the building is not for sale or lease, or the building is a farm outbuilding on your property. If you sell or lease such building within 1 year after the asbestos abatement is complete, the law will presume that you intended to sell or lease the property at the time the work was done, which is a violation of this exemption. You may not hire an unlicensed person as your contractor. Your work must be done according to all local, state and federal laws and regulations which apply to asbestos abatement projects. It is your responsibility to make sure that people 720 21 Table of Contents employed by you have licenses required by state law and by county or municipal licensing ordinances. 105.3.7 Applicable Code for Manufactured Buildings.

The Building Official is also authorized to prevent occupancy or use of a structure where in violation of this code or of any other ordinances of this jurisdiction or of any other federal, state and local laws, ordinances, codes and regulations. 105.4.1 Permit intent. A permit issued shall be construed to be a license to proceed with the work and not as authority to violate, cancel, alter or set aside any of the provisions of the technical codes, nor shall issuance of a permit prevent the Building Official from thereafter requiring a correction of errors in plans, construction or violations of this code. Every permit issued shall become invalid unless the work authorized by such permit is commenced within six months (180 Days) after its issuance, or if the work authorized by such permit is suspended or abandoned for a period of six months (180 Days) after the time the work is commenced. 105.4.1.1 If work has commenced and the permit is revoked, becomes null and void, or expires because of lack of progress or abandonment, a new permit covering the proposed construction shall be obtained before proceeding with the work. 105.4.1.2 If a new permit, or revalidation (renewal) of the original permit, is not obtained within six months (180 days) from the date the initial permit became null and void, the Building Official is authorized to require that any work which has been commenced or completed be removed from the building site.
