Jesus to anyone who is
looking for a great civil
engineer! It is obvious
that he has very high
engineering abilities,
but additionally he is
extremely ethical and
moral... I have no
problem recommending
Jesus to everyone I
know. We have worked

always on top of his
game!”

South Tampa Veterinary Care
5M Civil successfully proposed an alternative drainage outfall to the FDOT for a brand new
veterinary clinic in the City of Tampa.  The result was a stormwater design solution for a site
with no drainage that allowed the client to save up to $60,000 in construction fees and
potentially an additional 4 months in construction.
 













Children's Academy Brandon
Constrained by substandard access roads, the Children's Academy Brandon a 165 student
privately held school needed additional space to get recertified.  5M Civil helped the school
acquire a special use permit approval as well as site plan approval for expansion.  
Construction costs were kept low while still meeting the objective for certification.

Calvary Chapel Tampa
5M Civil performed complete civil design, permitting and construction services for a 6.6 acre
church in rural Hillsborough County.  Challenges included wetland setbacks and  
compensating for 100-year floodplain encroachments in a site without a stormwater outfall.  
Additional services included design of a well and associated water treatment system.

Tampa Korean First Methodist Church
5M Civil successfully acquired Hillsborough County site plan approval, change of use
authorization and  a variance for the  
Tampa Korean First Methodist Church.  These
approvals allowed the church to expand with minimal construction costs.  

Busch Gardens Jungala
5M Civil performed design quality control of paving, grading and drainage plans for
modification of 4.10 acres in the Busch Gardens Africa theme park.  Permit applications were
developed and acquired with minimal review included the City of Tampa Site Plan permit
and the SWFWMD ERP permits.

CRI Soho
5M Civil redesigned a parking lot in the South Howard District of the City of Tampa for the
client to modify the use of an existing building from residential to commercial office.  The
parking area required variances for spaces, geometric layout and landscaping.  All variances
were acquired.  Successful permitting of the project through the City of Tampa and the
SWFWMD enabled the owner to complete purchase and use conditions of the existing
property.
