Title
Reimbursement for Oversizing of Water and Wastewater Facilities at Willow Oak Plantation (NB)
Willow Oak Plantation provides an opportunity for beneficial oversizing of the water distribution and wastewater collection systems.
Explanation
Willow Oak Plantation is a single family residential subdivision proposed at SW 88th Street and SW 73rd Avenue. A wastewater gravity collection system and a potable water distribution system must be constructed to serve the development with domestic wastewater and potable water.
In order to properly serve adjacent undeveloped parcels and minimize the need for future lift stations that GRU would have to operate and maintain, increased depth of the gravity collection system is required. Also, water and wastewater stubouts will be provided to most efficiently serve undeveloped parcels. Additionally, opportunity exists to strengthen the water distribution system by oversizing a segment of water main. GRU's incremental cost to deepen the gravity wastewater system and stubout wastewater service is $9,996. GRU's incremental cost for the developer to provide a larger water main segment and stubouts is $19,479.
The recommended amount of $29,475 includes all construction labor and materials associated with the water and wastewater system oversizing to satisfactorily complete the work.
Recommendations
The City Commission authorizes reimbursement to Willow Oak Development, LLC, for the oversizing of the water and wastewater facilities in an amount not to exceed $29,475.
Fiscal Note
Monies for this project are available in the FY 07 Water and Wastewater Capital Improvements Budget.
