Pembroke Pines City Commission Approves $233,860 for Charter School IT Infrastructure Upgrades

The Pembroke Pines City Commission approved a work order authorization with Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. for engineering design services for the city's charter schools. The project, totaling an amount not to exceed $233,860, focuses on enhancing the IT/Telecom rooms at five charter school campuses with generator backup power redundancy and mini-split HVAC air conditioning.

This initiative addresses critical infrastructure needs for the city's educational facilities. Reliable power and climate control for IT infrastructure ensure uninterrupted learning environments and operational efficiency for the schools. The upgrades aim to safeguard essential technology systems from power outages and environmental fluctuations.

Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. submitted a Letter Agreement for Professional Services on August 25, 2026, to Amanda Mulvaney, a representative of the City of Pembroke Pines. This proposal connects with the City of Pembroke Pines “CCNA Continuing Professional Services Agreement RFQ #PSPW-23-20”. The engineering design services cover the planning and specifications required for installing the new generator backup power and mini-split HVAC systems.

The City Commission considered this motion during its meeting on Thursday, September 3, 2026, at 6:00 PM. The item was listed as action item 9 on the agenda. The approval allows the project to move forward with the detailed design phase, laying the groundwork for the physical upgrades at the five charter school campuses.

Residents can anticipate further updates as the project progresses from the design phase to implementation, ultimately benefiting the students and staff within the Pembroke Pines charter school system.
