O 'Brya �z <br /> District 4 <br /> December 7 , 2010 <br /> Honorable Jay Kramer, Mayor <br /> City of Vero Beach <br /> 1053 20th Place <br /> Vero Beach , Florida 32961 - 1389 <br /> RIE : City and County Water, Wastewater and Reclaimed Water Systems <br /> Dear Mayor Kramer : <br /> As you and other members of the City Council are aware , the City and the County each have <br /> their own separate water, wastewater and reclaimed water systems . This may not be the most <br /> efficient and cost effective way to provide such services to our residents . For that reason , the <br /> Board of County Commissioners would like to extend an invitation to the City Council to engage <br /> in policy level discussions to explore cooperative opportunities that may exist between the two <br /> systems . <br /> The Board would be willing to begin the process by making a detailed presentation to the City <br /> Council , outlining the physical assets of the County system , its fiscal status , the geographical <br /> areas served , etc . The objective would be to provide the City Council with updated , complete <br /> information about the County ' s system . If the City Council so desires , the County would <br /> welcome a similar detailed presentation to the Board about the City ' s system . <br /> Presently , there appears to be much misinformation about the County ' s systems . The County . <br /> would welcome a list of written questions from the City Council and Staff, which the County <br /> would respond to in writing , beginning an open and transparent process which keeps both the <br /> City and County and their residents informed about the systems of both the City and the County . <br /> After that , the parties could engage in policy level discussions to explore cooperative <br /> opportunities . The Board firmly believes that much can be gained if the City and County work <br /> together to provide service to our residents . <br /> Building A <br /> 180127 Ih Sheet <br /> Vero Beach, FL 32960-3388 <br /> Telephone : 772 - 226- 1490 FAX: 772 - 770- 5334 <br />
