CITRUS GARDENS SUBDV - FINAL RESOLUTION & ASSESSMENT ROLL (WATER) <br />The Board reviewed memo from the Department of Utility <br />Services: <br />DATE: JUNE 21, 1991 <br />TO: JAMES E. CHANDLER <br />COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR <br />FROM: TERRANCE G. PINTO)&�* <br />DIRECTOR OF UTILITY SERVICES <br />PREPARED WILLIMCCAIN <br />AND STAFFED CAPIT S ENGINEER <br />BY: DEPAR ENT OF UTILITY SERVICES <br />SUBJECT: CITRUS GARDENS SUBDIVISION FINAL RESOLUTION <br />AND ACCOMPANYING FINAL ASSESSMENT ROLL <br />IRC PROJECT NO. UW -89 -17 -DS <br />BACKGROUND <br />On May 28, 1991, the Indian River County Board of County <br />Commissioners approved the final payment to Utility Systems of <br />America, for the above -listed project (see attached agenda item). <br />We now wish to have the Board of County Commissioners approve the <br />attached final resolution and assessment roll. <br />ANALYSIS <br />The original approved assessment was in the amount of $208,373.00 <br />and was approved on August 24, 1990, at a public hearing (see <br />attached agenda item and resolution).. The total final assessment is <br />in the amount of $108,318.30. This results in a net savings of <br />approximately 48% to the property owners. This agenda item finishes <br />a petitioned assessment project, bringing water service to <br />approximately 110 properties, most of which are deemed substandard <br />by our comprehensive plan, and has eliminated a potential health <br />threat in this part of our community. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />The staff of the Department of Utility Services recommends approval <br />of the attached final resolution and accompanying assessment roll <br />for the Citrus Gardens water project. <br />Commissioner Eggert had a concern about taking the high and <br />the low bids and giving the people an estimated cost which can be <br />considerably different than the actual final cost. <br />Director Pinto advised that because of the considerable <br />range in the bidding, they are throwing out the high and the low <br />and trying to narrow it down. <br />Commissioner Scurlock noted that the only alternative would <br />be to go to bid before you do the assessment and then award the <br />contract at the same time you pass your resolution setting the <br />final assessment. All this means spending money up front, of <br />course. <br />47 <br />BOOK <br />
