Re: Professional Services for NE 4th St Canal Bank Stabilization
Dear Mr. Allen:
Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc., ("Kimley-Horn") is pleased to submit this proposal to the City of
Okeechobee ("City") for professional engineering services NE 4th St Canal Bank Stabilization (the
"Project") located at NE 4th St, Okeechobee County, Florida. Our project understanding, scope of
services, and fee are described below.
Project Understanding
FPL has noticed erosion at the foundation of a transmission power pole due to soil loss at the south
bank of the adjacent canal. This project's focus will be providing construction plans to protect the
foundation from any further soil erosion, including the addition of fill, bank restoration, and bank
stabilization adjacent to the existing pole foundation. No work or analysis will be performed on the pole
or foundation. The scope will be limited to site improvements for the re-establishment of the canal bank
and added protection of the bank adjacent to the foundation. Additionally, it is our understanding
multiple power poles along the canal bank may be affected.
Scope of Services
Task 1: Data Collection and Site Visit
Kimley-Horn shall conduct one site visit to visually assess the condition of the canal bank and measure
the current level of foundation exposure. While on site, Kimley-horn will assess the condition of the
south canal bank where accessible. Kimley-Horn will rely on City staff to assist in gaining access to
private property where the pole and erosion is located. It is our understanding that there are no existing
structural plans available for the bank control structure or other retaining structures in the area. If no
plans or shop drawings are available, Kimley-Horn will use conservative assumptions, along with our
field measurements, to determine materials and member sizes. This task includes coordination with
FPL for a more in-depth understanding of construction constraints and site conditions.
Task 2: Alternative Analysis Report and Discussion
Kimley-Horn will generate a report with multiple repair options based on the findings from the site visit
and data collection. The report will include possible sources of the erosion, as well as a discussion of
up to three (3) repair options. Each repair option will have a discussion with advantages and
disadvantages of the repair and suggested repair limits.
Following issuance of the report to the City, a meeting will be scheduled to discuss the report and to

determine which repair solution the City would like to proceed with.
Task 3: Construction Documents
Kimley-Horn will utilize the information from Tasks 1 and 2, along with input from the City, to prepare
Construction Documents for the bank stabilization at up to two (2) isolated pole locations. This task
assumes one (1) bank stabilization option will be used for all affected power poles and multiple details
will not be developed for each location.
Kimley-Horn will prepare repair plans in general conformance with the conditions of the Florida Building
Code (latest Edition). Plans are anticipated to consist of the following sheets:
• A Cover Sheet
• General Notes Sheet(s)
• Quantity Table
• An Overall Site Plan
• Elevations
• Typical Sections
• Typical Details
Kimley-Horn will reference the survey provided by the City.
Kimley-Horn will submit draft bank stabilization plans to the City for review via electronic submission.
Upon receipt of City comments, we will incorporate one (1) round of revisions to address the City's
comments,finalize the construction plans, and submit final documents to the City(via electronic format)
for their use in soliciting bids to perform the recommended repairs.
If the City does not implement any repair recommended by Kimley-Horn, the City agrees it will not
assert any claims in any way related to those conditions for which repair was recommended, and City
will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Kimley-Horn and its employees for any claim arising out of
those conditions.
