BACKGROUND (.in July 3, 2001, the Indian River County Board of County Commissioners approved Resolutions 2001-061_ IKesolution I) and 2001-062 (Resolution 11J, which contained the preliminary assessment roll and established the date of the public hearing for the subject project. Property owners have been notified of the public hearing by mail. Resolution 2001-061 was published in the PRESS JOURNAL on July 9, 2001 .(See attached agenda item and cope of- Implementation -Attachment 1) Design of the water distribution system has been completed by staff. We are now ready to proceed with Phase III -C. ANALYSIS On July 12. 2001 at 7:00 p.m., an informational meeting was held for the benefit of the property owners, in the multi —purpose room at the Pelican Island Elementary School in Sebastian. For bidding and construction efficiency staff proposes combining Phases III -B & III -C. When the final assessment is prepared at the completion of the two phases a single assessment roll will be prepared at an equalized rate. Staff is now ready to proceed with Phase III -C. Within the Phase III -C project, between Laconia & Barber Streets & between Rolling Hill's Drive & Bavfront Terrace. there are 899 lots and approximately 414 homes, to benefit from this project. Typical platted lot sizes are 25 acre, plus or minus. Although more effective management of project construction, inspections, cash flows. and interaction with property owners is being accomplished by having divided Phases II and III into smaller projects staff believes that by combining Phase III -B and III -C and perhaps combining III -D and III -E property owners will benefit and obtain a more equalized cost. This is a result of input received at informational meetings. This may encourage more utility construction contractors to bid on these projects possibly making the bid process more competitive. The attached map displays the area to benefit from the assessment projects, as divided into parts A, B, C, D & E. for Phase III (Attachment 3) This project will provide potable water and fire protection to an area noted for failing well systems. The City of Sebastian is waiting for the completion of the water line installation in order to complete road & drainage improvements and comply with bonding requirements. Project No. Lots Parcel LD.

A summary assessment roll for Phase III -C is attached (Attachment 4). The full assessment roll is on file in the commission office. This Project is to be paid through the assessment of property owners along the proposed water line route. Financing will be from the assessment fund 473, account number 473-000-169491. If needed, inter -fund borrowing will be available from the capacity fee fund 472. The combined estimated project cost and amount to be assessed for both Phases III -B and III -C is $ 3,285,521.48 which is a revised cost that is less than the cost of constructing Phases III -B and III -C separately. (Attachment -5). For Phase III -C the estimated cost per square foot is $0.221673 (rounded). The actual assessed cost, as with any project will be determined based on actual competitive bid prices. On June 22, 2001, a letter was sent to the City Manager, of the City of Sebastian, with a copy of a draft agenda item, summary assessment roll and a map of the project area (Attachment 6).
