TO: THE HONORABLE BOARD OF DATE: JUNE 12, 1985 <br />COUNTY COMMISSIONERS <br />THRU: TERRANCE G. PINTSUBJECT: RESOLUTION TO BE KNOWN <br />AS SOUTHEAST WATER & <br />SEWER CO. FOR VERO GROVE <br />WASTEWATER SERVICE <br />FROM: JOANNE L. REIFF <br />DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS <br />Southeast Water and Sewer Co. ("Franchisee"), formerly known as North <br />Hutchinson. Island Water Co., will be providing wastewater collection and <br />treatment to Vero Grove condominium on South U.S. Highway 1, located south <br />.of Oslo Road on the east side of U.S. Highway #1, between U.S. Highway #1 <br />and the Indian River. <br />Indian River County will supply water service to Franchisee. Franchisee <br />will construct such water lines as are necessary to a point determined by <br />Indian River County Utilities Department. <br />ANALYSIS <br />Franchisee has met the necessary requirements, and understands and agrees <br />to terms of franchise as attached hereto. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Staff recommends that this franchise resolution be granted. <br />Chairman Lyons referred to Section XVI and asked if we must <br />purchase in order to get the escrowed funds, or, in other words, <br />if we are going to take over the sewer plant, we have to buy the <br />sewer plant. <br />Commissioner Scurlock clarified that if we are going to <br />operate a county plant other than this, then we don't purchase <br />this plant. If, however, we are going to use this facility or <br />expand it, then we purchase it. <br />Utilities Director Pinto further explained that this <br />franchise is for wastewater; Vero Grove is going to be serviced <br />with county water. At the same time that they are planning to <br />build their wastewater plant, negotiation is on=going with - - <br />General Development for wastewater service. We are trying <br />diligently to make something happen to eliminate the need to <br />build another plant, but if the negotiations are not fruitful, <br />they will go on and be permitted and build this treatment plant. <br />27 <br />BOOK <br />JUN 19 1985 <br />
