Title

Reimbursement for Reclaimed Water Distribution System in The Estates of Wilds Plantation (B)

Explanation

The use of reclaimed water in place of groundwater or GRU drinking water for irrigation reduces the demand on the potable water supply, and GRU receives revenue to offset the cost of installation.

The developer known as The Estates of Wilds Plantation, Inc. has agreed to install a reclaimed water distribution system in its proposed 99-unit single-family residential development located at 10000 SW 24^th Avenue.  The developer's cost to construct the reclaimed water system is $293,411.00.  This amount includes all design, construction, labor, and materials.

Fiscal Note

Monies for this project are available in the FY15 Water and Wastewater Capital Improvements Budget.

Recommendation:

The City Commission authorize the General Manager or her designee to negotiate and execute an agreement for reimbursement to The Estates of Wilds Plantation, Inc. for the construction of the reclaimed water distribution system in an amount not to exceed $293,411.00 subject to approval of the City Attorney as to form and legality.
