SEP 2 4 1980 goon 44 QAcE 662 PROBLEM WITH THAT. REGARDING THE 600,000 GALLON 6TH AVENUE ALLOCATION, WHEN THAT IS REALLOCATED TO THE SOUTH BEACH, THEY WANT THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE ANY EXCESS THAT MAY BE AVAILABLE ALLOCATED SOMEPLACE ELSE BY MUTUAL CONSENT. LASTLY, THEY REQUESTED AN ARBITRATION PARAGRAPH BE ADDED. THE ATTORNEY CONTINUED THAT THERE ARE A NUMBER OF MINOR WORD CHANGES, NONE OF WHICH HAVE ANY SUBSTANTIAL AFFECT ON THE INTENT OF THE AGREEMENT. HE STATED THAT AFTER RESOLVING VARIOUS PROBLEMS, THE CITY DID APPROVE THE AGREEMENT, AND HE WOULD REQUEST THAT IF THE BOARD IS SATISFIED WITH THE CHANGES, THAT THEY RECOMMEND ITS APPROVAL. MOTION WAS MADE BY COMMISSIONER LYONS, SECONDED BY COMMIS- SIONER Loy, THAT THE CHAIRMAN BE AUTHORIZED TO SIGN THE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF VERO BEACH AND THE COUNTY IN REGARD TO SOUTH BEACH WATER, WITH THE CHANGES NOTED BY THE ATTORNEY. CHAIRMAN SIEBERT COMMENTED THAT THEY CONSISTENTLY REFER TO A 24" LINE. HE QUESTIONED THE FORMULA FOR DETERMINING THE SIZING OF THE LINE BECAUSE HE FELT THAT MAXIMUM BUILD -OUT NEVER WILL BE ACHIEVED BECAUSE OF THE SUBDIVISIONS OF RECORD, HE CONTINUED THAT THERE ARE SOME OBJECTIONS FROM THE DEVELOPERS ABOUT FRONTING MONEY FOR SOMETHING THAT MAY NOT BE NECESSARY. COMMISSIONER LYONS EXPLAINED THAT THIS IS A TAPERED LINE; IT COULD BE LESS THAN 24" OR COULD BE 24" FOR ONLY A SHORT DISTANCE. THEY, THEREFORE, CALLED IT 24" IN ORDER NOT TO MISLEAD PEOPLE INTO THINKING THAT 20" WAS THE ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM. ENGINEER JOHN ROBBINS AGREED THAT THE LINE NEEDS TO BE SIZED BY HYDRAULICS AND EXACT NEEDS. CHAIRMAN SIEBERT STATED THAT HIS POINT IS THAT WHEN WE ACTUALLY ENGINEER THE LINE, WE WANT TO BE SURE THE FIGURES ARE REALISTIC AND THAT WE ARE NOT OVERENGINEERING AND ADDING SUBSTANTIAL COSTS FOR THE DEVELOPERS TO BEAR. HE REPEATED THAT EVEN THOUGH THE LAND USE PERMITS A HIGHER DENSITY, HE DID NOT BELIEVE IT CAN BECOME A REALITY. a
