Peter May

Peter May serves as Executive Project Manager, Stormwater, for Pinellas County’s Public Works Agency, where he leads the planning, procurement, and oversight of critical stormwater infrastructure projects. In this primary contracting role, he is responsible for managing the full lifecycle of engineering services acquisitions, ensuring alignment with county resilience goals and federal environmental compliance standards. His portfolio centers on the design, rehabilitation, and modernization of stormwater drainage systems, detention basins, and conveyance networks, with a focus on sustainable infrastructure solutions that mitigate flooding and protect water quality across Clearwater and surrounding communities. Peter works closely with licensed engineering firms specializing in civil, environmental, and hydraulic engineering services. His procurement patterns reflect long-term, performance-based partnerships with firms possessing proven expertise in hydrologic modeling, BMP implementation, and GIS-assisted watershed analysis. He prioritizes technical competence and regulatory adherence over cost alone, fostering collaborative relationships with vendors capable of delivering complex, multi-phase projects under strict environmental and public safety mandates. Peter’s contracting activity is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of procurements conducted under open competition. While he does not prioritize socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, his process remains fully transparent and compliant with federal and state procurement regulations, ensuring equitable access for all qualified firms. His primary procurement focus is on NAICS 541330 — Engineering Services — encompassing design-build, professional engineering consulting, and technical studies related to stormwater management. He consistently acquires services including hydraulic analysis, stormwater master planning, erosion control design, and compliance documentation for NPDES permits, demonstrating deep domain expertise in water resource engineering and municipal infrastructure resilience.
