COMMISSIONER LYONS FELT THIS HAS MERIT, AS FAR AS WATER SUPPLY,. <br />AND THAT IT MIGHT BE HELPFUL IN DEALING WITH THE CITY SINCE THE CITY <br />ALWAYS HAS BEEN RETICENT IN MOVING IN THE AREA OF ADDITIONAL WATER AND <br />SEWER. HE CONTINUED THAT MID -FLORIDA UTILITIES SYSTEM IS SET UP FOR <br />TWO WELLS, AND THERE IS A POSSIBILITY THAT IT WOULD BE ABLE TO TREAT THAT <br />WATER. HE FELT THAT ADDING A WELL TO THE SYSTEM WOULD BE A SHOW OF FAITH <br />ON THE COUNTY'S PART THAT THEY REALLY ARE GOING INTO THE BUSINESS AND <br />THAT IT WOULD CREATE A FAVORABLE ATMOSPHERE WITH THE CITY. <br />MR. LUETHJE COMMENTED THAT IT MAY TAKE THREE TO FOUR YEARS TO <br />TOTALLY PHASE OUT THIS SUBDIVISION, AND A PARCEL OF LAND COULD BE DEEDED <br />TO THE COUNTY FOR THE RAW WATER LINE. <br />COMMISSIONER LYONS REPORTED THAT THE CITY HAS TO PUT MORE WATER <br />TOWARD THE SOUTH AND WEST. THEY GET FURTHER FROM THEIR TREATMENT PLANT <br />AND MUST FIND WELL SITES,. AND IT COULD BE THE CITY MIGHT WANT TO GET <br />TOGETHER WITH THE COUNTY TO SERVICE AREAS FARTHER FROM THEIR TREATMENT <br />PLANT. <br />DISCUSSION FOLLOWED ON WATER ALLOCATION. <br />COMMISSIONER SIEBERT FELT QUESTIONS NEED TO BE ANSWERED BEFORE <br />ANYTHING CAN BE.ALLOCATED AND SUGGESTED THE COUNTY TALK TO THEIR ENGINEERS <br />TO_SEE WHAT WOULD BE THE BEST THING TO DO. <br />CHAIRMAN VIODTKE AGREED THAT WE NEED TO HAVE THE ENGINEERS <br />DETERMINE IF THE PLANT WOULD HANDLE THE ADDITIONAL WATER AND TO EXPLORE <br />THE COST OF THE TRANSMISSION LINE. HE COMMENTED THAT WE DO HAVE A CON- <br />TRACT WITH THE CITY WHICH CALLS FOR NO ADDITIONAL TAP -INS. CHAIRMAN <br />WODTKE EXPRESSED CONCERN REGARDING THE COUNTY HAVING THE OVERALL USE OF <br />THE WELLS; THE AMOUNT OF MONEY NEEDED FOR A TRANSMISSION LINE; AND <br />WHETHER THE LINE WILL BE USEFUL TO THEM IN FIVE YEARS. <br />MR. LUETHJE NOTED THAT THEY ARE JUST LOOKING FOR SOME GUIDANCE <br />FROM THE BOARD. THEY WOULD PREFER NOT TO HANDLE THE SEWER, AS SMALL <br />PACKAGE PLANTS ARE NOT THE MOST DESIRABLE, BUT IT IS AN ALTERNATIVE. <br />HE COMMENTED THAT A SMALL TEST WELL, COSTING APPROXIMATELY $1,000, SHOULD <br />GIVE THEM A SAMPLE OF THE QUALITY OF THE WATER, AS THIS INFORMATION MIGHT <br />BE CRITICAL TO HAVE. <br />JUN 20199 <br />Bou 41 PnUE 08 <br />
