For example, many Street Lighting Improvement projects for our municipal clients ultimately have impacts to existing trees, landscaping, and irrigation systems. So, identifying and addressing these potential impacts early in the planning stages of a project is very important, and can save the client a lot of time and money in the long run. Likewise, for major Drainage Improvement Projects, the construction of these types of project often involve major excavation and re -grading of sites, which can severely impact the root systems of existing trees and damage irrigation systems. For these reasons, the CGA team likes to be involved in these projects to look out for potential issues and offer planning advice on how best to accomplish these important infrastructure projects without damaging existing trees, landscaping, and irrigation unnecessarily.

This two-phase project will put the last 0.7 miles of bike lanes on A -1-A in the Town of Jupiter. The bike lanes and the streetscape improvements are LAP funded (the LAP Phase). The underground utility improvements are funded by the Town (the Utility Phase). The project was split into two construction contracts to facilitate the minimization of disruptions to the seasonal traffic conditions and the LAP funding schedule. The first project to start is the underground improvements include the burial of the overhead power lines for the full 0.7 mile length of the project, constructing a drainage backbone system to serve not only the roadway but the entire 40 -plus acre Jupiter Inlet Village, and replacing the 10" asbestos cement water main. The project is complicated by the extensive utilities crowding both sides of the roadway. In some sections of the roadway there are eleven underground lines on one side of the road before the new construction begins. The LAP Phase includes milling, resurfacing and overlay of the 0.7 mile of roadway, the addition of 5 -foot bike lanes, color treated permeable concrete sidewalks on both sides of the roadway, decorative pavement features, raised pedestrian crossings, on -street parking, solar powered flashing crossing signs, solar powered speed indicator signs, signing and pavement marking layout and improvements to the turn lanes at both ends of the project. Other improvements include extensive landscaping, pedestrian level street lighting and new underground fiber optic conduits for the Town's use. Services provided by CGA included civil engineering, subsurface utility investigation, street lighting and construction engineering and inspections. 25 26 Client City of Stuart Project Date 2019 (On-going) Services Provided Park Master Planning Landscape Architecture Civil Engineering Electrical Engineering GUY DAVIS COMMUNITY PARK CONCEPTUAL DESIGN Stuart, FL The CGA design team's approach to the City's call for qualifications was to propose a design solution that not only provided for the requirements listed within the RFP's solicitation, but also pushed beyond the notions of the project simply as a sports complex, and instead approached the project with the intent of providing a holistic strategy that speaks to the potential of the project area and the need for the improvements to remain relevant to the community even when the sports fields are not in immediate use. Therefore, the approach consisted of four main themes that will: • Increase interaction by developing a connected system of spaces that contribute to the heart of the community by creating a system of indispensable, inter -connected gathering spaces; • Provide a multiscale, sustainable solution to community design and site development that seeks to minimize and manage stormwater through Low Impact Development and use it as an opportunity to educate and demonstrate the importance of water conservation and natural processes; • Maximize connectivity through trail systems that provide a circuited -loop with a design detailing that will seek to hone key skills such as physical, social, and cognitive functions; and • Take steps to preserve the existing plant communities and site drainage to shape the character and identity of the park to its community. 27 28 IIIIII r WI' City of Oakland Park Project Date 2012 Services Provided Landscape Architecture Civil Engineering Surveying OAKLAND PARK STATION Oakland Park, FL CGA was contracted by the City of Oakland Park to design a public plaza at a prominent location within the City's Culinary District. The public plaza is the linchpin to the newly established District's catalyst for redevelopment, serving as a connective means and threshold to a brewery being proposed in a presently vacant industrial building. The goal of the plaza's design was to meet the goals of the District's master plan in contributing spaces of value for social, public use to increase the pedestrian experiences being lent by the District. Additionally, the plaza provides ample areas and infrastructure to serve as the designated location for future street markets — this includes ample electrical connection stations, a flexible elevated area that can be used as a stage area, and ample outdoor seating opportunities through the use of elevated planters with seat walls. The design of the plaza required very close attention to detail design to ensure that the quality of the space was of a high architectural quality, consistent with the initial branding strategies already embarked by the City. Lastly, the project was conceived, design and developed through a cooperative process with the assigned City officials, the developers and adjacent property owner, lease and their contractor, and finally with the City - selected contractor contracted to build the plaza project. This coordination was a highlight of the project which ensured that the design ideas were clearly communicated and translated into the implementation phase, that all in -building needs were met and scheduled so as to not conflict with the plaza's tight construction schedule, and that the continuity and balance of design elements was achieved between the public space and the improvements proposed by the adjacent building in terms of design treatments, color, signage and motifs. 190 29 30 FOLLOW THE H 'MART PARK es.la PISCOVER THE w PLAQUES THAT OIESCPAPIE THE EVOLUTION NVIRONMENT TO THE ARRIVAL OF THE CITY OF WESTON IS FORM EPTHE RICH H R E ITEC.ISW AVERY SPECIAL PLA<E, ENJOY YOUR WALK OF OISSIOVER.Y.

CGA oversaw all aspects of the development of the park from the conceptual design and site details to the permitting, bidding and construction. 100. From the beginning, the City wanted a strong connection between the park and the Library. A paved walkway leads visitors from the Library directly to a large circular fountain and the "Ring of Florida Authors." The low walk and seating area contains 20 bronze plaques highlighting the literary works of famous authors and playwrights with a connection to Florida. In addition, there is a series of gazebos with terraced seating to accommodate groups from 5 to 6 people, up to 40 to 50 people, in size. The design of the park also features a "walk of discovery," consisting of a series of 10 bronze plaques inlaid in the park's meandering sidewalk that depicts the history of the area dating back to the Tequesta Indians. The park project also includes both site lighting and specialty lighting, as well as a restroom building and a large open, grassed area. All of the walkways, seating areas and site features are completely A.D.A accessible. The total cost of the park was $2.2 million, and it opened in October 2009. 31 32 Town of Bay Harbor Islands Project Date 2009 Services Provided Urban Design Landscape Architecure Civil Engineering Electrical Engineering Irrigation Design Construction Administration COMMUNITY ENHANCEMENTS Bay Harbor Islands, FL Calvin, Giordano & Associates, Inc. worked closely with Town Staff to devise a strategy for improving the qualities and character of the Town's west island's neighborhood, something the Town had been struggling with for over five years prior to contracting CGA. CGA was successful in providing the necessary services to get public support for the project, design the roadway and landscape improvements, and oversee all aspects of the construction. The project consisted of engineering and landscape improvements that upgraded the residential streets in the form of milling and resurfacing of the roadways, lighting, planted and irrigated bulb -outs and signage throughout. While the scope of the project is similar to others in nature that CGA has performed, this project stands out as one where CGA's heavy involvement in marketing, graphics and conflict resolution took center stage. These skills aided CGA in facilitating approval of the final design strategy.

DANIA COVE PARK Dania Beach, FL CGA developed a waterfront park design on an archeologically significant site in the City of Dania Beach; the site, which contains a scenic mangrove cove, is located along the Dania Cut-off canal. The park design features waterfront elements, including a fishing dock and platform, picnic pavilions and an exercise path for the park users. Native plantings were used to eliminate the park's need for permanent irrigation, and plants were selected for their educational opportunities including highlighting the butterfly attracting varieties. The project scope included designing the site amenities to preserve and highlight the remnant Oak Hammock; designing a stabilization system for the shoreline embankment along with vegetating the shoreline (before and after pictures shown above); designing informational kiosks featuring the historic Native American midden and the site's natural resources; and obtaining all required permits for the installation of the site features. A State and a County Grant were provided to assist in the project costs. The scope also included coordinating with the County and State on gaining approval for the site design, tracking all expenditures and processing and obtaining all grant funds for the City, and closing out the grants and permits. As a part of the park's design for the Dania Cove Park, CGA created a series of informational panels and environmental graphics to be installed on-site. The purpose of the graphics was to provide an educational component to the park to teach park users about the archeological significance of the site. An opportunity was found to also include historical panels to celebrate the history of the City of Dania Beach, as well as to highlight design features of the park design — such as the butterfly attractor plants. 1/0009 TviOM NM r4}ywunn,9, ec+1w^o ro p. aoa r9ram, vsw ' air ra fmlesosb .94V4•00014.,417111939430 1owren r6a Sou rd ch., kees� neisfuhe6 aem and awe 1- nd aces ' oat 31•35 ere the nossi • en and F000005 tMn Mod bwas tm yet era wvr *04 oW,mn.

The plan recommended the creation of twin public plazas on the northwest and southwest corners of the intersection to serve as a new neighborhood center and gathering place for the community as a whole. CGA designed the plaza on the Northwest corner which consists of landscape features and pedestrian amenities. The design also included colorful terrazzo and keystone pavers similar to the Libby Wesley Plaza (SW corner) of intersection, and includes four bronze emblems featuring fire rescue motifs. Green building elements such as permeable pavers and native vegetation were also incorporated into the project. The design allows for seamless integration into the Atlantic Avenue corridor while still honoring the unique civic identity of the Fire Rescue Headquarters. 37 TAB C 1 0 Centennial Park City of Okeechobee Open Sunrise to Sunset IDaily Entering or remaining in this park after the hours of operation may be enforced as a trespass and subject to penalties set forth ie Ch.. 10.09, Florida Statutes.

EXCEPTIONAL SOLUTIONS" Tab C - Familiarity of Region Familiarity with the City of Okeechobee City of Okeechobee is known for its vast agricultural communities, cattle and dairy farms and for its superior fishing at Lake Okeechobee. Having been a resident of Okeechobee County and living in the Indian Hammock community of Fort Drum since 2004, Tammy Cook-Weedon has become very familiar with the City of Okeechobee and this region. She frequents the local grocery stores at least once a week to plan meals, and utilize the local eateries quite regularly such as Cowboys, Tin Fish, Lightsey Fish Company and the wonderful Mexican Food restaurants around the City. As a native Texan, she was pleased to discover the local barbecue food truck called Blue Moon, which parks by the RaceTrac gas station. Tammy and her family have enjoyed the best local breakfast at the Okeechobee Airport at the Landing Strip Cafe' with the added entertainment of watching the planes land. Prior to COVID, she traveled weekly from Fort Lauderdale to Okeechobee and has discovered several memorable routes. Besides the typical drive along 710 from West Palm Beach, she has taken highway 27 through South Bay, Belle Glade, Canal Point, and Port Mayaca, while hugging the Okeechobee Rim Canal and enjoying the sugar cane fields, tractors and majestic royal palms in Pahokee. She has also discovered one of Florida's gems while traveling on the historic, 12 -mile Martin Grade Scenic Highway (County road 714). This is a favorite route with the shaded canopy of century -old oaks, with old Florida views of pastures, groves, swamps and woods unspoiled from the time of Florida's earliest settlers. Over the last sixteen (16) years she has also utilized the City's Amtrak train, which stops in Okeechobee at the relatively new beautiful train station at 801 N. Parrott Avenue. When she first started riding the train there was barely a bus shelter at that location so the new station was a welcomed surprise. The main attraction and the reason for the move from Broward to Okeechobee was the country setting. With more cows than people the rural lifestyle was most appealing, but also the friendly people in the City of Okeechobee. She has also enjoyed visiting Taylor Creek Stormwater Treatment area and the Kissimmee Prairie Preserve to watch the local wood -storks, woodpeckers, great blue herons, caracaras, and roseate spoonbills. The Eagles have also been awe inspiring as they sit on the power poles along 710, in fact one day she spotted eleven (11) along that rural roadway. FUTURE HOME OF Coordinated by OKltl For information contac City of Okeechobee 1 RFQ No. ADM 03-32-09-20 1 Professional Landscape Architect Services 39 Calvin, Giordano Associates, Inc. EXCEPTIONAL SOLUTIONS'" One fall weekend a baby Hawk fell from the nest on their property in Indian Hammock, so they took it to Arnold's Wildlife Rehabilitation Center where they offered a donation for the staff to rescue it and then release it. There are so many wonderful animals at that center! Throughout the years there have been many City events that Tammy and her family have frequented in and around Okeechobee. On Main Street, The Christmas Festival and Parade, the Speckled Perch Festival, Top of the Lake Art Fest, and in the area -Brighton Field Day, the Freedom Ranch Art Festival and several rodeos. When the Okeechobee Music Festival has come to the City, the traffic has been like nothing that any locals were accustomed to, but the people watching was interesting. The Weedon's son went through the Okeechobee school system at Yearling Middle School and the Freshman Campus and experienced the bus rides throughout the County. They have witnessed the annual Florida Cracker Trail ride many times over the years. This ride re-enacts the trail that Florida Pioneers used during the early 1800's to move cattle to ports along the Gulf Coast and the Atlantic Coast. Since the Florida Cracker Trail runs from just east of Bradenton, and ends in Fort Pierce, a total distance of approximately 120 miles they have frequently see the riders. Today it includes parts of State Road 66, State Road 64, and U.S. Highway 98. During the last week of February for the past twenty-five (25) years adventurous Floridians have brought history to life crossing the state on horseback in the annual re-creation of the Cracker Trail Ride. The site of the Okeechobee Battlefield Historic State Park has been a site that their family have visited, but have not yet had the opportunity to see the reenactment of the battle. They enjoyed the Piper Birds in the sandy parking lot at the pier before the park was developed several years back to include the paved roads, parking, restroom and connection to the Seminole Trail along the dike. Recently while voting for the primary election at the Okeechobee Courthouse, Tammy and her husband viewed the boards presented by the Arts and Cultural Alliance of Okeechobee County and Okeechobee Main Street. It was so exciting to see the plans for the historic cattle drive sculptures to be placed in the downtown parks. The project will consist of ten (10) bronze sculptures and will include a horse with rider, calf, dog, six (6) head of cattle and cowboy on a fence. The sculptures will represent a historical cattle drive celebrating the ranching lifestyle in Okeechobee County as well as celebrate the Five Hundred (500) year anniversary of the first cattle brought to Florida. In 1521 the earliest Spanish explorers and seven (7) Andalusia cattle arrived on Florida shores. City of Okeechobee 1 RFQ No. ADM 03-32-09-20 1 Professional Landscape Architect Services 40 Calvin, Giordano Associates, Inc. EXCEPTIONAL SOLUTIONS'" The project will be installed in the City of Okeechobee at Flagler Park #5. This bronze sculpture project will be custom made to celebrate the cattle heritage of Okeechobee County and will be a unique and total representation of our area. The cattle sculptures will graze on the grass along side of the sidewalk with native plants added for authenticity. Visitors will be able to walk along the sidewalk and feel like they are in the middle of a historic cattle drive, visitors will also be able to read about the history of Okeechobee ranchers. The view of the project from State Road 70 will be easily viewed with easy access in and out of the park blocks. Historically, this is also near the path of cattle drives coming through Okeechobee many years ago. She visited the butterfly sculpture Project in Flagler Park whose eight (8) large metal butterflies were painted by local artist and students. One of the bricks in that plaza was dedicated for one of the beloved staff members at CGA who spent a lot of time at the Big 0 RV park. The Okeechobee Main Street is a special place for the City of Okeechobee as a venue to host many memorable events and provides a wonderful public space for the community. The new development for Centennial Park along Taylor Creek is a beautiful amenity for the residents of the City of Okeechobee. The stormwater demonstration area developed as part of this park was a very nice addition to educate the public about addressing the water quality of the run-off going into Taylor Creek and ultimately Lake Okeechobee. Tammy has enjoyed the four (4) murals from the Okeechobee Mural Program whose on-going series of wall -sized murals depict scenes from Okeechobee's culture and history: cattle drives, life of the ranch, the Native American population, and the county's first telephone company and hardware store. Within the last few years the planting of the medians along 441 have been wonderful to see with the native planting and also the crape myrtles. The large live oaks throughout the neighborhoods are so majestic and provide the most wonderful shade. The opportunities to plant some of the wide medians with these large shade trees would offer some tremendous beautification efforts for the City of Okeechobee. These large medians are such a rare occurrence in so many Florida communities. The Okeechobee Community Theatre was founded in 1979 and provide volunteer performances at the historic Okeechobee Auditorium at 610 SW Second Avenue, which is sponsored by the Okeechobee Arts and Cultural Alliance. As a member of the Indian Hammock Community in Okeechobee County, Tammy and her husband have their full-time resident on nearly three acres in that six square mile preserve. She has learned over the years that although many of the South Florida tropicals will freeze, there are some that will still re-emerge. She has also recognized the importance to transition to many freeze hardy plant varieties as well. Tammy has volunteered at Indian Hammock and provided a design for the community garden and is also an active committee member and grower. She has provided a recommended native plant list with photo's for new -comers to the community to better understand what native plants should be encouraged in the required residential buffers. Over the sixteen (16) years in Okeechobee County there have been many periods of drought, lots of storms and excessive rain events, crazy love bug infestations and hurricanes, but with those challenges have come an appreciation for the struggles of the original pioneer settlers and the understanding of the hardships that they had to overcome to live in this special place in Florida.
