• (FDEP). Utilities Department staff had numerous meetings and discussions with representatives of the. FDOT to arrive at a solution that would not require relocation of, or modifications to, the existing water main. The HDOT rejected a request by the Utilities Department to relocate their storm drain farther away from the existing water main. Another request by the Utilities Department to participate in the cost of the relocation/modification was rejected by the FDOT, citing language in FS Ch. 377 - SS 337.403 (1) (See Attachment 1). The Utilities Department staff studied the existing water system serving Baytree Villas and surrounding developments. It was decided that the best and most economical solution was to: 1) construct a new interconnect to an existing 10 -inch diameter water main on the west side of US A1A located in the entrance to Island Club; and 2) construct a new interconnect from the existing 12 -inch diameter water main on the east side of US AIA to an existing 12 -inch diameter water main on the west side of US A1A in the entrance to Baytree Villas (See Attachment 2, Exhibit B). This will allow abandonment of approximately 300 linear feet of the existing 8 -inch diameter water main that will be in conflict with the proposed drainpipe. The Utilities Department decided that the best way to effect the solution was to use the Utility Department Labor Contractor, and the direct purchase of material. The total cost of labor and materials for this project is estimated to be $48,381.38, with a further breakout of $31 733.79 for labor, and $16,647.59 for direct purchase material.
