water and $17.86 in sewer charges, bringing the total bill to <br />$38.34. <br />Director Pinto noted that the County has not changed its <br />water rate for four years. <br />Kenneth Henry, 1075 SW 24th Placer acknowledged that he had <br />been sworn in, and asked for clarification on the statement made <br />in the flyer that he received with hisjwater bill that GDU <br />expects to lose in excess of $120,000 In 1986. <br />Mr. Wheeling explained that the loss is coming from the <br />difference in their current revenues versus expenses for transmission <br />and distribution mains, general administrative costs, billing, <br />and all'the other associated costs in running the system. He <br />pointed out that even if they receive this pass through, this <br />loss will be carried into 1987 and will actually increase, <br />because the 1986 amount did not include any carrying costs on the <br />$1.2 million that they used to construct the pipeline and pay <br />certain associated costs to connect to:the County system. <br />Mr. Henry also asked the capacity'of the original plant. <br />Curtis Morris, Division Director or General Development <br />Utilities in their Port St. Lucie, Vera Shores, Vero Highlands <br />and Silver Spring Shores Division in Ocala, acknowledged that he <br />had been sworn in, and noted that his rlesponsibilities are to <br />manage the day-to-day activities of the water and sewer facilities <br />in those divisions. Mr. Morris cited his qualifications of <br />approximately 20 years experience in the water and wastewater <br />field for which he is licensed by the State of Florida. In <br />answer to Mr. Henry's question about the capacity of the original <br />plant, he stated that it was not designed for build out. <br />Mr. Henry objected to the low rates for water and sewer that <br />were charged at the beginning of the development and would have <br />preferred to have it up front. <br />0 <br />15 BOOS C <br />S E P 18 1986 <br />
