DATE: JUNE 29, 1987 <br />TO: BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS <br />THRU: TERRANCE G. PINTO --'I <br />VIEERVICES <br />DIRECTOR OF UTILITY <br />FROM: JEFFREY K. BARTONC' <br />ASSISTANT DIRECTOR OF UTILITY SERVICES <br />SUBJECT: 20" DIAMETER POTABLE WATER MAIN ON KINGS HIGHWAY, <br />LINDSEY ROAD, S. GIFFORD ROAD, AND 43RD AVENUE WORK <br />AUTHORIZATION #14 <br />BACKGROUND <br />Indian River County's Water Master Plan has proposed the connection <br />of our North and South System. Work Authorization #14 is for the <br />engineering to accomplish that goal. Along with the interconnection, <br />the Grand Harbor water line will be constructed. To date, through <br />the developers agreement, Grand Harbor has paid water impact fees in <br />the amount of $285,000 along with a letter of credit for $855,000 to <br />help construct the water line. Grand Harbor's funds are for the <br />first 1,000 ERU connections out of 2,800 (plus or minus) connections <br />for Grand Harbor build out. The work authorization for this project <br />includes two phases: <br />Phase I: The lines north on Kings Highway to Lindsey Road, then <br />east along Lindsay Road to 28th Court with the <br />interconnections to our present Gifford System on <br />South Gifford Road and 43rd Avenue south from Lindsay <br />Road. <br />Phase II: The continuation of the 20" water line north on Kings <br />Highway between Lindsay Road and South Winter Beach <br />Road. <br />The following is the engineers breakdown estimate of construction <br />costs, costs to design the project, and the project budget for Phase <br />I and Phase II: <br />Engineering $104,800 <br />Construction of Phase I $1,316,000 <br />Construction of Phase II $563,000 <br />Total $1,984,400 <br />RECOMMENDATION• <br />Utility Staff recommends to the Board of County Commissioners that <br />the Board authorize the Chairman to execute Work Authorization #14, <br />to design Phase I and Phase II as outlined and prepare the documents <br />to receive the bids for both phases of the project. Funding has been <br />placed in the 1987 - 1988 budget as a transfer from impact fees. <br />Utilities Director Terry Pinto explained that this is part <br />of our master plan. It is the responsibility of Grand Harbor to <br />build their lines to the water tower, and their impact fees will <br />go towards the construction of the line. This will discontinue <br />the water allocation that we have with the City of Vero Beach for <br />servicing the Gifford area, which will be hooked up to county <br />
