Date: August 13, 2025 To: Board of Commissioners From: Margaret Carey, Town Manager/Town Clerk Re: Building Department Services – Contract Update BACKGROUND At the July 30th Workshop, the Commission was presented with the results of the RFP for contracted building department services. I also shared that in addition to the bids received, the Town of Indian Shores officially expressed interested in entering into an interlocal agreement with the Town to provide building department services. The Commission directed me to pursue the agreement with Indian Shores and to confirm next steps for contract termination with SAFEBuilt. UPDATE I reached out to Tina Porter, Town Administrator for Indian Shores. She is drafting the interlocal agreement. We also have 2 meetings set up on Monday, August 11 to with the Finance teams of both towns and to meet with their Building Official. A full update will be presented at the August 13 Regular Commission meeting. I also reached out to Attorney Eschenfelder and SAFEBuilt to clarify contract termination details and deadlines.  The SAFEBuilt contract requires a 90-day notice of termination.  It is not advisable to initiate termination until we have a signed contract with the replacement contractor. RECOMMENDED NEXT STEPS The suggested next steps would include the following: • Continue to work with Indian Shores to procure an interlocal agreement. • Invite Indian Shores Building Official and/or Administrator to present their proposal at a meeting or workshop. • Sign an interlocal agreement with the Town of Indian Shores • Send a 90-day notice of termination to SAFEBuilt. • Notify the Town of Redington Beach of our next steps. ITEM G.1. Date: August 13, 2025 To: Board of Commissioners From: Margaret Carey, Town Manager/Town Clerk Re: Piggyback Contract for Sewer/Stormwater Project Attorney Eschenfelder has reviewed a potential contract with BLD Services, LLC that Redington Shores can “piggyback” for our Sewer/Stormwater Project.

WHEREAS, the Client has determined that it requires rehabilitation work to be performed on its sanitary sewer system infrastructure related to the Town’s initiative to make its system reliably functioning and eventually transferrable to Pinellas County; and WHEREAS, on September 29th 2022, the City of Boca Raton, a Florida municipal corporation (“CITY”) issued Invitation to Bid # 2022-021 (the “ITB”) for the purpose of receiving bids from qualified providers of sanitary sewer repair and maintenance work to be performed on the CITY’s sanitary sewer system infrastructure as further described in the ITB (the “Services”); and WHEREAS, on November 1st 2022, the Contractor responded to the ITB and CITY subsequently selected the Contractor as the lowest responsive, responsible bidder; and WHEREAS, on February 23rd 2023, the Contractor and CITY entered into an Agreement for Sanitary and Storm Sewer Rehabilitation Services (the “CITY Contract”) wherein the Contractor agreed to perform the Services for the CITY in accordance with the terms and conditions described therein; and WHEREAS, § 36-13(B) of the Redington Shores Town Code authorizes the Client to accept, in lieu of soliciting competitive proposals as otherwise required by Florida Statutes § 255.20 or the Town Code, a competitively-solicited contract which has been made between another Florida governmental agency and a vendor of commodities or services where that contract was solicited pursuant to lawful competitive procedures which are equal to or more stringent that the Town’s; and WHEREAS, the Client’s Town Attorney has analyzed the ITB process used by CITY and has determined that it was conducted in compliance with Florida law and was otherwise a competitive solicitation process able to be “piggybacked” pursuant to § 36-13(B) of the Town Code; and WHEREAS, the Client desires to piggyback onto the CITY Contract for the purposes of receiving the same Services from Contractor as are being provided to CITY under the CITY Contract; and WHEREAS, the Town Manager has obtained confirmation from an authorized representative of the Contractor that the Contractor consents to the formation of this contractual relationship by way of Client’s piggybacking onto the CITY Contract under the terms provided for herein.

The Client may exercise a renewal right even if the CITY does not exercise such right. 5. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated in any of the ways provided for in § 12 of the CITY Contract. In the event the CITY exercises its right under § 12 of the CITY Contract to terminate the CITY Contract early, this Agreement shall survive through the initial term or any Extension Term termination date unless the Town, independently, exercises its own termination rights. 6. Staff Title References. The CITY Contract refers in various places to Project Manager, and certain other CITY officials or employees. The Parties agree that for purposes of this Agreement, references to these officials or employees shall mean the Redington Shores Town Manager, or her/his designee. 7. Language Substitutes. The following terms in the CITY Contract are revised as follows: The provisions of the CITY Contract related to invoicing shall be replaced with the following: Invoices to Client shall be sent to: Redington Shores Town Hall Attn: Town Clerk 17425 Gulf Blvd. Redington Shores, FL 33708 Notwithstanding any provision in the CITY Contract to the contrary, work assignments are to be accomplished as follows: The Town Manager or designee shall have the authority to issue Task Orders to Contractor at such times and for such work as the Town may desire, within the scope of Services.

Town of Redington Shores, Florida BLD Services, LLC By: _____________________________ By: _____________________________ Tom Kapper, Mayor Jacob Trapani, Vice President 7 ITEM G.2. Date: August 13, 2025 To: Board of Commissioners From: Margaret Carey, Town Manager/Town Clerk Re: Appointment of a BIG-C Member to the Forward Pinellas Board BIG-C appoints a representative to the Forward Pinellas Board. Mayor Will is the current representative but has given notice that he is no longer able to serve. Mayor Brooks of Madeira Beach has volunteered for the position. For that to happen, each BIG-C town must vote to support the nomination of Mayor Brooks. Recommendation: Approve the Town’s support of Mayor Anne-Marie Brooks to represent the BIG-C on the Forward Pinellas Board. ITEM G.3. Date: August 13, 2025 To: Board of Commissioners From: Margaret Carey, Town Manager/Town Clerk Re: Town Clerk Position The Town Clerk position was posted to: the Town website, FL City Jobs (FL League of Cities), FACC (Florida Association of City Clerks), and distributed to members of the Pinellas County Clerks Association. We began posting on July 18, 2025. We received 3 applications – 1 of which was from our Deputy Clerk, Melissa Fultz. After careful consideration, I believe that Ms. Fultz is qualified and the best candidate for the position. She has been an asset to the Town since being hired for the Deputy Clerk position earlier this year. Pursuant to the Town Charter, the Commission must confirm the Town Clerk. I have already negotiated an offer to Ms. Fultz and she has accepted. RECOMMENDATION I recommend the Commission confirm Melissa Fultz for the position of Town Clerk. ITEM G.4. Date: August 13, 2025 To: Board of Commissioners From: Margaret Carey, Town Manager/Town Clerk Re: Ordinance 2025-04 Election District Revision At the July 30th Workshop, the Commission discussed a proposal by Commissioner Maynard to acquire a section of District 3 and incorporate into the District 4 boundary. Commissioners also discussed the need to evaluate all districts to ensure equal numbers of electors. It was decided to approve an Ordinance updating the boundary between Districts 3 and 4 at this time. After the March 2026 election, a redistricting committee will be established to evaluate equal elector representation in all districts. Attorney Eschenfelder was directed to prepare an ordinance to reflect the update. In addition, the Supervisor of Elections Office was notified of the impending change. ORDINANCE NO. 25–04 AN ORDINANCE OF THE TOWN COMMISSION OF THE TOWN OF REDINGTON SHORES, FLORIDA, RELOCATING CERTAIN PROPERTY WITHIN THE TOWN FROM COMMISSION DISTRICT THREE TO DISTRICT FOUR; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY, CODIFICATION AND FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE. WHEREAS, § 8(B) of the Town Charter provides that the Town Commission may, from time to time and by ordinance, change the boundaries of the Town’s election districts as it may deem expedient so that each district shall contain as nearly as possible the same number of electors, and so long as such revision does not occur within six months of a Town election; and WHEREAS, § 8(C) of the Town Charter provides that in each instance where the Commission revises the boundaries of the districts, it shall, in addition to considering the numbering and population distribution requirements, attempt to develop district boundaries which would prevent or make less likely the election of more than one Commissioner (excluding the Mayor-Commissioner) from any one homeowner or condominium association, with the intent that no one condominium or homeowner association should hold a majority of the Town Commission seats; and WHEREAS, the Commission last revised the Town’s election districts in Ordinance 12- 02, adopted April 11th 2012; and WHEREAS, since being appointed to his seat, the District 4 Commissioner has examined the boundaries of his district and has determined that certain properties bordering the southwest portion of his current district, which properties are currently situated in District three, should be included in his district; and WHEREAS, according to the Supervisor of Elections most recent data, District one has 394 electors, District two has 441 electors, District 3 has 351 electors, and District 4 has 379 electors; and WHEREAS, while recent residential changes related to the 2024 hurricanes make precise data difficult to obtain, the proposed relocation of the properties would move approximately twenty electors from District 3 to District 4; and WHEREAS, the District three Commissioner has expressed an understanding of the District four Commissioner’s desire to “square off” his district and thus does not object to the change; and WHEREAS, the Commission has recognized that in light of the disparity of electors between districts (90 electors between the highest and lowest district), a broader redistricting examination is in order to ensure the Charter’s “rough equality” mandate is restored; but 1 WHEREAS, in light of the reality that so many Town residents are still actively attempting to recover from last year’s hurricane impacts, including the fact that many homes remain unlivable until insurance and grant funds may be determined and necessary permits obtained, it would be unfair to such residents to undertake a complete redistricting effort until further progress on recovery occurs and greater stability returns to the Town; and WHEREAS, the Commission finds that it is in the best interests of the Town to adopt this Ordinance. NOW, THEREFORE BE IT ORDAINED by the Board of Commissioners of the Town of Redington Shores, Florida, that: Section 1. The Town’s Election Districts, as adopted by Ordinance 12-02, are hereby amended to move 180th Avenue and 182st Avenues West, west of Gulf Blvd., and the parcels numbered 1-11 and 18-28 (contained within the Surfside Cabana Club Revised subdivision) outlined in blue on the following map, from Election District 3 to Election District 4: Section 2. The Town Planner shall create a new election districts map by no later than October 1st 2025 depicting the new boundaries. 2 Section 3. The Town Manager is directed to ensure the Pinellas County Supervisor of Elections is provided with a copy of the Town’s new election districts, and that the new election district map is published for Town residents on the Town’s website. Section 4. The Town Manager is directed to schedule a time to bring back to the Town Commission the topic of broader redistricting immediately after the scheduled 2026 elections are decided either by uncontested races or by vote of the electors, whichever is earlier, so the Commission may then determine how it wishes to proceed with the project of Town-wide redistricting. Section 5. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, provision, or word of this Ordinance is held unconstitutional or otherwise legally invalid, same shall be severable and the remainder of this Ordinance shall not be affected by such invalidity, such that any remainder of the Ordinance shall withstand any severed provision, as the Board of Commissioners would have adopted the Ordinance and its regulatory scheme even absent the invalid part. Section 6. Since this Ordinance does not revise the Town Code, the Town Clerk shall not transmit this Ordinance to the Town’s Code Codifier, and the Codifier shall NOT codify this Ordinance. Section 7. Pursuant to Florida Statutes § 166.041(4)(a), prior to the date the public notice of the public hearing for this Ordinance was published, the Town prepared and posted on its website a business impact estimate which included: a) a summary of the Ordinance, a statement of the public purpose to be served by the Ordinance, b) an estimate of the direct economic impact of the Ordinance on private, for-profit businesses in the Town, c) an estimate of direct compliance costs that businesses may reasonably incur due to the Ordinance, d) identification of any new charge or fee on businesses created by the Ordinance or for which businesses will be financially 3 responsible, e) an estimate of the Town’s regulatory costs and of revenues from any new charges or fees imposed on businesses to cover such costs, and f) a good faith estimate of the number of businesses likely to be impacted by the Ordinance. Section 8. Pursuant to Florida Statutes § 166.041(4), this Ordinance shall take effect immediately upon adoption. ADOPTED ON FIRST READING on the 13th day of August, 2025, by the Board of Commissioners of the Town of Redington Shores, Florida. ADOPTED ON SECOND AND FINAL READING on the 10th day of September, 2025, by the Board of Commissioners of the Town of Redington Shores, Florida. _____________________________ Tom Kapper, Mayor Attest: _________________________ Melissa Fultz, Town Clerk 4 ITEM H.7.
