Mr. Moller indicated that the POA primarily buys <br />and uses reclaimed water from the City, but at certain times of the year (i.e., in the summer) tzere is not enough <br />reuse water available, and the POA must rely on the well during those times. Mr. Moller explained that the <br />reuse water is of higher quality for irrigation than the back-up well and therefore use of the well, although <br />necessary during shortfalls of reclaimed water availability, is not preferred, compared to reclaimed City water. <br />Since the referenced well is not a principal irrigation source for TIV , staffs position is L at the Board should <br />authorize JIWM to continue to use the Old Winter Beach Road well. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners authorize staff to notify the SJRWMT) that JIWM <br />is authorized to continue its use of the subject well in the Old Winter Beach Road right-of-way, with the <br />following condition: <br />• That JIWM use the well only as a backup source for irrigation when reclaimed water is unavailable. <br />ATTACHMENTS <br />Survey of Old Winter Beach Road showing well location <br />Excerpt of 7/3/01 BCC nunutes <br />Town of Indian River Shores Ordinance No. 385, granting JIWtM an irrigation water franchise <br />April 9, 2002 <br />13 <br />Ol <br />1'o <br />• <br />
