Board of County Commissioners · 2026-09-01 · resolution

The Miami-Dade Board of County Commissioners adopted Resolution R-748-26 (File Number 261323) on September 1, 2026, authorizing Supplemental Agreement No. 1 with BCC Engineering, LLC for Construction, Engineering, and Inspection (CEI) services for the Dadeland South Intermodal Station project. The agreement increases the total contract amount from $3,551,593.10 to $5,467,817.92, an increase of $1,916,224.82, funded by the People's Transportation Plan Bond Program. The project is located at the Dadeland South Metrorail Station, 9150 Dadeland Boulevard, Miami, Florida 33156, within Commission District 7. The associated design-build contract (CIP207-DTPW19-DB) was extended by 264 days and the project is valued at approximately $77 million. The additional scope includes bus charging infrastructure, reconfiguration of the BRT platform, escalator replacements, and modifications to station access and circulation elements. The Infrastructure, Innovation & Technology Committee forwarded the item to the BCC with a favorable recommendation on July 15, 2026. Public comment from commissioners included concerns about the late addition, the justification for the additional cost, the fairness of approving additional scopes without knowing costs, and the need for closer scrutiny of scope changes and change orders.
