Water Capacity Update Village of Indiantown (Village) Water Plant
]PRESENTATION. TOM JENSEN. VILLAGE ENGINEER. WATER CAPACITY UPDATE. GOOD EVENING. GOOD[00:10:02]
EVENING. MAYOR THOMAS VICE MAYOR STONE FELLOW COUNCIL MEMBERS. UM AS YOU AS THE MAYOR MENTIONED, MY NAME IS TOM JENSEN. I'M WITH THE ENGINEERING FORM. IT'S CALLED KINLEY HORN ASSOCIATES.I'M ALSO HERE WITH ANOTHER ENGINEERING OUR OFFICE NICK BLACK. UM AND WHAT WE'RE GOING TO PRESENT TO YOU THIS EVENING. UM I BELIEVE IT'S VERY IMPORTANT FOR THE VILLAGE. TO UNDERSTAND WHERE WE'RE AT FROM THE CAPACITY PERSPECTIVE AT YOUR WATER PLANT. UM AS I TELL A LOT OF LOT OF MY CLIENTS, DEWATER PLAN, I THINK IS THE HEART OF OUR SYSTEM. UM AND IT'S REALLY IN CRITICAL THAT WE PAY ATTENTION TO IT. AND WE HAVE BEEN PAYING TOUCH INTO IT HERE SHORT AND RECENTLY, AND SOME ISLANDS HAVE BEEN BROUGHT TO OUR ATTENTION. WE BROUGHT UP THE TARRANT AND THE PAT AND IT'S IMPORTANT WE BROUGHT UP TO YOU ALL TO GET SOME INFORMATION ON WHAT'S HAPPENING. DID IT GO? IT'S TIME TO MOVE IT FROM THEIR NEXT SLIDE. SO REAL QUICKLY. I DON'T WANT TO TAKE A LOT OF PEOPLE'S TIME. BUT I NOTICE IS IMPORTANT. I HAVE A LOT OF LITTLE THINGS I WANT TO DISCUSS ALL GO THROUGH THE EXISTING PLAN TO GIVE YOU A LITTLE UPDATE. WHAT WE SEE COMING UP FOR THE EXISTING PLANT. UM WHAT'S IMPACTING THIS DISCUSSION WAS BRINGING THE DISCUSSION FORWARD AS SOME OF THE DEVELOPMENT YOU ALL ARE AWARE OF. UM SOME OF THE WATER TREATMENT PLANT NEEDS AND SOME CONSIDERATIONS THAT WE NEED TO START THINKING ABOUT NEXT SLIDE. SO YOU ALL KNOW THE WATER PLANT THAT THE WATER SYSTEM THAT YOU ALL PURCHASED BACK IN OCTOBER 2020. UM IT WAS BUILT BACK IN THE EARLY FIFTIES AND AS WE GO THROUGH SO MANY SLIDES IF YOU HAVEN'T BEEN TO THE WATER PLANE, I ENCOURAGE YOU ALL TO MAKE A SITE VISIT. I JUST WANTED I HAVE SOME PICTURES HERE. YOU CAN SEE BASICALLY, THAT'S SOME OF THE PICTURES OF THE EXISTING PLANT. UM YOU HAVE A CAPACITY OF 1.96 MILLION GALLONS A DAY THAT CAN BE THAT'S PERMISSIBLE TO BE PRODUCED OUT OF THAT PLANT. AND THAT IS SUPPLIED BY EIGHT SUPERFICIAL WELLS. THERE'S OFFICIAL THEY'RE SHALLOW WELLS DOWN INTO THE AQUIFER THAT WE CAN PULL WATER FROM. AND TOM JUST TO CLARIFY FOR ANYBODY LISTENING ONLINE. THAT'S 1.296. RIGHT 1.296. OKAY YOU SAID 1.961 0.29 SORRY, 1.296. YOU'RE RIGHT.
THANK YOU. ANYBODY IN THE PUBLIC ? OKAY. NEXT LINE. DID YOU? DID YOU MISS THE SLIDE THERE OR NOT? OKAY THAT'S FINE. I THINK THAT'S RIGHT THERE, RIGHT, OKAY. SO YOU ALL KNOW THAT? NICK AND I HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH PAT ON MAKING IMPROVEMENTS AT THE WATER EXISTING WATER TREATMENT PLANT THAT WAS PART OF THE PURCHASE THAT CAME THROUGH. THERE WERE SOME IMPROVEMENTS THAT WERE IDENTIFIED IN THE KEY THING THAT WAS REALLY TO BE ADDRESSED IN THIS DESIGN. THAT WAS THAT'S NOW BEEN PERMITTED IS TO MAKE IMPROVEMENTS FROM WATER QUALITY PERSPECTIVE. THERE WERE NO ENHANCEMENTS AS FAR AS CAPACITY , SO I WANT TO MAKE SURE EVERYBODY UNDERSTANDS THAT THE PLANT IS STILL GOING TO BE RATED AT 1.296. BUT ALL WE'RE DOING IS INCREASED AND MAKING IMPROVEMENTS IN THE PLANT TO BENEFIT THE WATER QUALITY OUT IN THE SYSTEM. I WANNA MAKE SURE THAT'S VERY CLEAR. SO MANY OTHER THINGS WE'RE DOING. WE'RE ADDING ANOTHER GROUND STORAGE TANK.
WRITING SOME HIGH SERVICE PROMPTS THAT WILL BENEFIT GETTING THE WATER OUT INTO THE SYSTEM, SO THERE WILL BE SOME ENHANCEMENTS FROM A FIRE FLOW PERSPECTIVE, BUT WE'RE STILL LIMITED ON FIRE FLOW FROM AN INFRASTRUCTURE PERSPECTIVE BECAUSE OUR SYSTEM IS ALSO LIMITED FROM A AGE AND SIZE PERSPECTIVE OUT IN THE SYSTEM. WE MADE TOTAL USE. NICK WAS REALLY CLEVER HERE, WORKING WITH PAT AND MAKING SURE THAT WE CAN MAKE SOME OF THESE WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENTS WITHIN THE EXISTING STRUCTURE, SO THERE WERE NO ADDITIONAL BUILDINGS TO BE BUILT TO ENHANCE THE WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENTS. NEXT SLIDE. SO THAT PROJECT THAT'S BEEN DESIGNED TO ENHANCE THE WATER QUALITY IS OUT ON THE STREET. FORBIDDING. THE BIT AS YOU CAN SEE. HERE IS JUNE 23RD NEXT MONTH. IT'S COMING UP. UM THE PLAN CONSTRUCTION PERIOD, AND IT MAY SEEM LONG AND IF WE HAVE QUESTIONS AFTERWARD, NICK IS REALLY IN TUNE TO THE DESIGN FOR MORE THAN I AM. BUT I CAN TELL YOU WE HAD TO BE STRATEGIC ON HOW THE PLANT WAS GOING TO BE IMPROVED. BECAUSE THIS IS OUR ONLY SYSTEM. WE DON'T HAVE A BACKUP. SOME OTHER UTILITIES MAY HAVE A BACKUP PLAN FOR INTERCONNECT. WE DON'T HAVE THAT HERE. SO NICK WAS VERY, UH, STRATEGIC AND HOW IMPROVEMENTS COULD BE MADE. PART AT A TIME TO GO THROUGH THAT PLANT BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE THE ABILITY TO HAVE THE PLANT GO OFFLINE, SO THAT THAT HAD THAT'S WHY THE CONSTRUCTION PERIOD LONGER THAN MOST ON A ON A JOB LIKE THIS. ORIGINALLY I WANT TO BRING THIS
[00:15:05]
UP WHEN THE WHEN THE PLANT WAS PURCHASED THE UTILITY WAS PURCHASED. I THINK IT WAS IN THE IN THE ORIGINAL PLAN THAT THE PLAN IMPROVEMENTS FOR AROUND $3 MILLION WELL, FROM 2020 TILL TODAY. EVERYBODY KNOWS WHAT'S HAPPENING WITH THE ECONOMY. THERE WERE MAYBE SOME THINGS THAT WERE NOT REALLY ADDRESSED IN THE ORIGINAL PROPOSAL, BUT COSTS HAVE GONE UP AND BASED UPON OUR ENGINEERING ESTIMATE, WE'RE PROJECTING RIGHT NOW AND $11 MILLION CONSTRUCTION COSTS FOR THE IMPROVEMENTS AT THE PLANT THAT'S BEEN THE BIGGEST OPEN ON IN JUNE. NOW. YOU ALL HAVE RECEIVED A SRF LOAN, A STATE REVOLVING FUND LOAN FROM THE STATE. FOR AS WE SEE HERE, $12.625 MILLION, A PORTION OF THAT WAS FORGIVEN. UH ABOUT $8.4 MILLION, BUT YOU ALL ARE ON THE HOOK FOR THE REMAINING BALANCE OF THAT OF THAT FUND. SO THAT'S SOMETHING THAT THAT KAREN AND MIKE ARE WORKING ON IS HOW WE'RE GOING TO BASICALLY BE ABLE TO PAY BACK AND JUSTIFY PAYING THAT LOAN COMMITMENT. I THINK IT'S 100 AND $60,000 A YEAR HOW THAT'S GOING TO OCCUR. THAT'S BEEN WORKED BEHIND THE SCENES. I JUST WANT YOU TO BE AWARE OF THAT. YOU DO HAVE AN SVR FLOWN, BUT WE NOW HAVE A WORKING INTERNALLY ON HOW WE'RE GOING TO BE BASICALLY TO SATISFY THE DEBT COMMITMENT. NEXT SLIDE. SO WHAT? WHAT GOD IS HERE. SO WHEN? WHEN TARYN CAME ON BOARD, I THINK ONE OF THE SECOND MEETINGS I WAS HERE IS WHEN YOU ALL BROUGHT ME IN AS YOU'RE ACTING VILLAGE ENGINEER. WE'RE WORKING WITH PAT AND STAFF QUITE A BIT AND I STARTED TO SEE A TREND WHICH WHICH, IN MY OPINION, AS I SEE IS, UM, IS A GOOD THING FOR THE VILLAGE. UM AND YOU CAN SEE JUST IN THE TIME FRAME THAT I'VE BEEN INVOLVED. LOOK LOOK AT THE 12, AND THAT'S JUST 12. I KNOW THERE'S OTHERS COMING UP. UH BECAUSE PATENT CHAIRMAN HAD ME INVOLVED IN TALKING TO SOME DEVELOPERS THAT HAVE OTHER INTERESTS. THESE ARE 12 THAT I'VE BEEN GOING THROUGH THE PROCESS AND LOOK AT ITEMS 1237 AND EIGHT VETERAN BOLD THAT IS KEY. THAT'S WHAT'S DRIVING THIS DISCUSSION HERE. THOSE ARE PROJECTS THAT PEOPLE HAVE GONE THROUGH THE PROCESS, AND THEY'VE MADE A COMMITMENT PAID CASH TO THE VILLAGE. TO RESERVE CAPACITY. NOW WHAT THAT DOES IS AND I'LL SHOW YOU IN THE NEXT SLIDE DURING IN A SECOND, BUT THAT DOES IT'S LIMITING WHAT YOU HAVE AVAILABLE TO PLANT TO MAKE OTHER COMMITMENTS. YOU CAN'T YOU CAN'T OVER. YOU CAN'T COMMIT WHAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO SUPPLY THAT'S VERY IMPORTANT TO NOTE THIS. THOSE UM, ITEMS RIGHT THERE IN BOLD THAT COMMITMENT IS 515,000 GALLONS A DAY THAT'S BEEN RESERVED. SO KEEP KEEP THAT NUMBER IN MIND NEXT SLIDE. IT'S A LITTLE IT'S A LOT IN HERE THAT I STARTED TRACKING. THIS. I KNOW IT'S SMALL, BUT IT'S JUST AN ENGINEERING GRAPH THAT I HAVE. OKAY, SO NOW WE'RE TO TRACK ITEMS AS FAR AS GROWTH GOES IN THE IMPACT ON OUR PLANT. RIGHT NOW, PAT AT THE PLANT IS PUTTING OUT AROUND 650,000 GALLONS A DAY OUT OF THE PLANT 650,000 GALLONS A DAY. SO I STARTED AS A GETTING INVOLVED IN GOING THROUGH DRC'S MEETING WITH DEVELOPERS AND GETTING AN IDEA WHAT I CALL ABSORPTION RATES WERE CALLED ROOFTOPS, BASICALLY WHAT WHAT'S GOING TO BE COMING ONLINE THAT WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO PROVIDE? SERVICE FOR RIGHT, SO I STARTED CHARGING SOME OF THIS OUT AND GETTING INFORMATION AND IT'S AND IT'S AND IT'S REAL. AND I THINK SOME OF THESE NOW BASED UPON SOME MORE RECENT DATA THAT THAT BLUE LINE I WISH MY CLICKER WOULD HAVE WORKED. IT DOESN'T WORKING ON THE SCREEN FOR SOME REASON, BUT THAT BLUE LINE IS GOING UP. I THINK THAT'S NOW BECOMING STEEPER AS THE DEVELOPERS ARE LOOKING AT MOVING A LITTLE QUICKER, SO THERE'S A COUPLE THINGS HERE THAT YOU POINTED OUT ONE OF THE TOP THERE. NEXT COUNSELORS COUNCIL CAN SEE IT THAT THAT KIND OF BROWNISH DAP THE BRAND OF STAFF LINE RIGHT THERE. THAT THAT IS.ABOUT ONE WHAT I HAVE ON MY NOTES AT 1.165. 1 1,165,000. THAT WE ARE COMMITTED. TO WE'RE PUTTING OUT 650. I HAVE 515,000 . I'VE GOT RESERVED CAPACITY FOR WE'RE TAPPED OUT FROM A PERSPECTIVE AS TO HOW MUCH MORE WE CAN RESERVE. AND I'M GONNA I'M GONNA BACK UP AND TELL YOU A LITTLE BIT MY CONCERN. UM AND YOU SAW SOME OF THOSE PICTURES AT THE PLANT HAS BEEN IN A LOT MORE THAN I HAVE. I HAVE MEETINGS ALL THE TIME WITH PAT. I GO THROUGH IT. PAT AND HIS STAFF HAVE DONE AMAZING THINGS THAT THAT PLANT TO PROVIDE THE LEVEL OF SERVICE WITH WHAT HE HAS. FROM A FROM A PURE MECHANICAL AND HYDRAULIC PERSPECTIVE WITHIN THAT PLANT.
[00:20:03]
NICK AND I FEEL IT'S GOING TO BE A STRUGGLE FOR PAT AND HIS STAFF. TWO. PUT OUT MORE THAN 1 MILLION GALLONS A DAY. AND THERE'S AND THERE'S SOME REASONS FOR THAT. ONE IS THE HYDRAULIC AND MECHANICAL ABILITY INSIDE THE PLANT BECAUSE OF THE AGE. AND THE OTHER BECAUSE THIS OFFICIAL WELLS THAT I MENTIONED WE HAVE EIGHT. I THINK WE ONLY HAVE SIX THAT ARE OPERATIONAL RIGHT NOW, PAT. UM THAT LIMITS US. SO WE FEEL RIGHT NOW WE COULD PROBABLY GET ON A GOOD DAY WITH SOME OTHER IMPROVEMENTS AT THE PLANT WITH SOME OTHER IMPROVEMENTS THAT ARE WELLS TO GET 1 MILLION GALLONS A DAY. SO YOU CAN SEE SOME OF MY CONCERNS AND WHY ARE BROUGHT THIS FORWARD? TO TURN INTO PAT. AND NOW, OBVIOUSLY, THEY SEE THAT THEY SAY THEY NEED TO HAVE THIS DISCUSSION. THERE'S ONE MORE LINE I WANT TO SHOW BEFORE I GO OFF HERE REAL QUICKLY. UM WE'RE NOT THERE YET, BUT WE'RE PRETTY CLOSE TO IT. YOU CAN SEE THE TWO VERTICAL BLACK LINES THAT ARE THERE. UM THE STATE. UM THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT. ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION HAS HAS GUIDELINES TOOK KIND OF MONITOR WHAT'S HAPPENING WITH MUNICIPAL WATER PLANTS. SO WHEN YOU GET TO A POINT WHERE YOU ARE STARTING TO SEE IN YOUR OPERATING REPORTS THAT GET SYMPTOMS, PAT SUBMITS THE STATE. WHEN YOU HIT 75% OF YOUR CAPACITY. THE STATE RAISES A FLAG. DID YOU HAVE AN OFF MONTH THAT YOU HAVE SOMETHING GOING ON? OR IS THIS COMMONLY GOING TO HAPPEN MONTH TO MONTH? IF IT DOES. YOU'RE MANDATED TO DO WHAT'S CALLED THE CAPACITY ANALYSIS REPORT TO DO A REPORT TO DETERMINE WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO DO TO ADDRESS THE ABILITY TO BASICALLY PROVIDE MORE CAPACITY AT THE PLANT. NOW. WHAT WE HAVE. WE DON'T NEED TO DO THAT. BECAUSE WE KNOW WE DON'T DON'T HAVE TO DO A REPORT AND WASTE ANYBODY'S MONEY TO DO REPORT WE KNOW FROM BEING OUT THERE. THAT CAPACITY ANALYSIS REPORT DOESN'T NEED TO BE DONE. THE OTHER CRITICAL THING IS WHEN YOU HIT 80% OF YOUR CAPACITY. IT'S A PRETTY CLOSE SHIELD. NEXT, THEY WATCH IT. YOU HAVE TO HAVE YOUR CONSULTANT ONBOARD DOING DESIGN WORK WHEN YOU HIT 80. OKAY, WE'RE NOT THERE YET. BUT WE'RE GETTING THERE. YOU CAN SEE HOW QUICKLY WE'RE GETTING THERE. THAT'S ONLY SOMETIME END OF NEXT YEAR. AND THAT'S ONLY IF THESE DEVELOPERS SLOW UP OR SPEED UP. HOW THAT GOVERNS WHERE PAT AND I ARE STILL GOING TO GET MORE INFORMATION, BUT WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING, AND THAT'S AND THAT'S WHERE WE'RE AT. THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING. IT'S A GOOD THING. FROM THE VILLAGE WAS FAR AS GROWTH, CREATING JOBS, CREATING MORE TAX REVENUE. BUT FROM THE UTILITY PERSPECTIVE, WE'RE AT A CROSSROADS HERE. WE'RE WE HAVE TO MAKE A COMMITMENT TO GO ONTO THE NEXT STEP. UM AND THE NEXT SLIDE. SO SO, WHAT IS THAT? UM. AND I WANT TECHNIQUES GLORY AWAY FROM ALL THIS, BUT REAL QUICKLY.I JUST WANT TO, BUT BUT WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING. IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE. TO TRY TO EXPAND THE EXISTING PLANT AND NICK WILL GO INTO A LITTLE. BUT WHY, UM, IN THE WAY THE REGULATIONS ARE SET UP. YOU'RE BASICALLY THEY WANT UTILITIES TO LOOK FOR ALTERNATIVE WATER SOURCES. AND THAT'S WHAT NICK WILL TALK ABOUT. ALSO. BUT WE HAVE A NEED WHAT WE'RE PROJECTING RIGHT NOW TO PROVIDE AN ADDITIONAL 2 MILLION GALLONS A DAY ON TOP OF WHAT WE HAVE TODAY. SO I'M GONNA LET NICK START GOING THROUGH SOME OF THE NEXT TWO OR THREE SLIDES HERE TO TALK ABOUT. THE NEEDS AND WHAT WE'RE PROJECTING TO DO AND A SCHEDULE AND SOME COSTS AND THEN WE'LL OPEN UP FOR DISCUSSION. SO LET LET ME HAVE A GO AHEAD AND TALK ABOUT THE NEW PLANT. NICK BLACK WITH KIMBERLY HORN FOR THE RECORD. UM SO TOM HAD ALREADY GONE THROUGH MANY OF THESE POINTS ALREADY, PLANT PUTS OUT AROUND 600 TO 700,000 GALLONS PER DAY. THE UPCOMING IMPROVEMENTS WHERE THE BID OPENING IS GOING TO HAPPEN IN JUNE. ALL THAT CONSTRUCTION WORK ENTAILS IS IMPROVEMENTS TO THE FINISH WATER QUALITY FOR THE PLANT, NOT CAPACITY IMPROVEMENT, SO VERY, VERY IMPORTANT TO NOTE.
UM THERE IS A REPLACEMENT OF ONCE OFFICIAL WELL IN HOPES THAT WE'RE ABLE TO GET MORE OUT OF THAT. BUT THAT IS INCLUDED AS AN ADDITIVE, ALTERNATE ONE OF THE THINGS WE HAD TO DO WITH THAT PROJECT. TO TRY AND MAKE IT MORE COST COMPETITIVE WAS HAD BID ALTERNATES TO THE PROJECT SO THAT IF THE FUNDS WEREN'T THERE TO COMPLETE THE WORK, WE CAN EXCLUDE IT FROM THE CONTRACT WITHOUT HAVING ANY REPERCUSSIONS AND MOVING THE PROJECT FORWARD. IF YOU DID HAVE THE FUNDS, THEN WE COULD MOVE FORWARD WITH THE IMPROVEMENTS SO UH, TOM MENTIONED 2 MILLION GALLONS PER DAY. ADDITIONAL TREATMENT CAPACITY TO WHAT YOU ALL CURRENTLY HAVE. RIGHT NOW. IT'S IMPORTANT IF YOU FLIP BACK TO THE SLIDE ON THE PRE THE PREVIOUS SLIDE WITH A GRAPH, YOU'LL SEE WELL. 0.6 PLUS PLUS TWO IS 2.6. AND WE'RE NOWHERE NEAR THERE. UM THE 2 MILLION
[00:25:03]
GALLONS PER DAY BUYS YOU TIME, PARTLY IMMEDIATE IMPLEMENTATION. UH FOR A FEW FUTURE PROJECTS, SO INSTEAD OF HAVING TO BUILD THE BUILD A NEW TREATMENT PLANT AND 2023 HAVE IT COMPLETED IN 2026 AND HAVING TO UPGRADE THAT PLAN AGAIN AND INCREASED CAPACITY. IT BUYS YOU SOME TIME TO GET TO THAT 75% CAPACITY, SO THAT'S IMPORTANT TO KNOW. IF YOU COULD GO BACK TO THE PREVIOUS SIDE, PLEASE. UM SO WHAT WE'RE REALLY GOING TO DISCUSS TODAY IS AN ALTERNATIVE WATER SUPPLY THAT BE THE FLORIDIAN AQUIFER. WE'LL GET INTO SOME DETAILS ON THAT. SOME TREATMENT TECHNIQUES AND ALSO VERY IMPORTANT PART OF UM REVERSE OSMOSIS IS DISPOSAL OF CONCENTRATE OR BRIAN JUST JUST SALTY WATER, SO WE'LL TALK ABOUT THAT AS WELL. UM ONE THING TO KNOW SEVERAL MUNICIPALITIES IN THE AREA. SOME OF YOUR NEIGHBORS , UM, TOWN OF JUPITER TO CUESTA MARTIN COUNTY UTILITIES, SOUTH MARTIN REGIONAL INDIAN RIVER COUNTY PORT SAINT LUCIE ALL HAVE ADOPTED TO AN ALTERNATIVE WATER SUPPLY THROUGH THE FLORIDIAN AQUIFER TO ACCOMMODATE RAPID GROWTH AND BEING A SUSTAINABLE SUPPLY FOR MOVING INTO THE FUTURE. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. SO UM I'M SORRY. NOPE THAT'S GOOD.YOU'RE GOOD. THANK YOU. UH SO IN LOOKING AT SITES FOR AN ADDITIONAL WATER PLANT. UM, WE OBVIOUSLY HAVE TO TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION. WHAT DO YOU GUYS CURRENTLY HAVE? HOW CAN WE IMPLEMENT THIS THE FASTEST SO THAT YOU'RE ABLE TO GET THE CAPACITY. TOM HAD MENTIONED THAT REALLY THE HEART OF YOUR SYSTEM. IS THE WATER PLANT RIGHT NOW, SO ALL THE ARTERIES NEAR IT ARE OVERSIZED TO BE ABLE TO DISTRIBUTE WATER OUT TO THE EXTREMITIES OF THE OF THE SYSTEM. UM SO PUTTING A PLANT LOCATING THE PLANT ADJACENT TO WHAT'S EXISTING WOULD BE ADVANTAGEOUS FOR AN END FOR THE IMMEDIATE FUTURE IN TERMS OF GAINING THAT INITIAL CAPACITY, NOT ELIMINATING THE NEED FOR FUTURE UPGRADES TO THE DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM OF BUYING YOU SOME TIME TO BE ABLE TO IMPLEMENT THOSE AH, THE SHADED AREA IN THE GRAPH HERE IS VILLAGE OWNED. IT'S A 25 ACRE PARCEL AND UM, IT'S CURRENTLY IF YOU SEE THOSE LITTLE BODIES OF WATER IN THERE WITH THAT, CURRENTLY IS THOSE ARE THE RAPID INFILTRATION BASINS THAT ARE USED FOR EFFLUENT DISPOSAL FROM THE WASTEWATER PLANT, WHICH WE'LL TALK ABOUT BRIEFLY AS WELL. SO EXCELLENT. SO UM, BEFORE WE WANT WE WENT DOWN THIS ROAD OF LOOKING AT FLORIDA AQUIFER REVERSE OSMOSIS. WE WANTED TO LOOK AT OTHER ALTERNATIVES TO SEE WHAT WAS THE MOST EFFICIENT WAY OR THE QUICKEST WAY TO GET YOU GUYS THE ADDITIONAL CAPACITY THAT YOU NEEDED. WE LOOKED AT CONNECTIONS TO OTHER MUNICIPALITIES. UM MARTIN COUNTY UTILITIES. PALM BEACH COUNTY PARK OF COMMERCE, UM OKEECHOBEE. UH THOSE ARE REALLY AS CLOSE AS YOU CAN GET.
AND, UM. AND WE'RE LOOKING AT SOMEWHERE AROUND 15 MILES AND THE CAPITAL INVESTMENT TO BE ABLE TO BUILD THAT PIPELINE AND GET THE WATER TO YOU GUYS IS SO SIGNIFICANT THAT IT'S JUST NOT PRACTICAL AND NOT COST EFFECTIVE FOR THE VILLAGE MOVING FORWARD. SO WE NIXED THAT IDEA. YOU GUYS ARE TRULY ON AN ISLAND SIMILAR TO HOW BELLE GLADE WAS, UM WHEN PUMP BEFORE PALM BEACH COUNTY HAD ACQUIRED THEM, AND THEY'RE THEY'RE ALSO REVERSE OSMOSIS PLAN AS WELL. SO IN ADDITION TO CONNECTIONS TO OTHER MUNICIPALITIES WE LOOKED AT. OKAY WELL, WHY DON'T WE JUST EXPAND WHAT YOU GUYS CURRENTLY HAVE TOM MENTIONED YOU HAVE SHALLOW AQUIFER WELLS. THERE'S A LOT OF BENEFITS TO THAT. IT'S FRESH WATER, SO IT'S CHEAP TO TREAT. UM THE WELLS ARE NOT AS DEEP SO YOU CAN ACCESS THAT WATER, I GUESS WITHOUT WITH LOWER CAPITAL EXPENSES. BUT REALLY, THE PROBLEM COMES IN ALLOCATION IN PERMITTING IS SPECIFICALLY IN MARTIN COUNTY, SOUTH FLORIDA WATER MANAGEMENT DISTRICT WHO DISTRIBUTES THE ALLOCATION FOR THE WATERS. UM RIGHTS IN THIS AREA. UH DETERMINED OR QUALIFY MARTIN COUNTY AS HAVING A SIR OFFICIAL AQUIFER THAT'S LIMITED AVAILABILITY. THOSE ARE THE DEPARTMENT'S WORDS, UM AND MANY OTHER MUNICIPALITIES, UM CITY, STEWART. MARTIN COUNTY UTILITIES HAVE ALSO SEEN SOME ISSUES WITH WITH GETTING THE ALLOCATION THEY NEED OUT OF THAT AQUIFER. SO UM HAVING MULTIPLE WELLS TRYING NOT TO IMPLEMENT NOT TRYING NOT TO IMPACT WETLANDS OR, UM, NEARBY SOURCE. WATERS HAS BEEN A CONCERN OF THE OF THE DEPARTMENT. SO UM, IN ORDER TO ACCOUNT FOR THE DEMANDS, WHILE ALSO NOT IMPACTING THE SUPERFICIAL AQUIFER. UTILITIES HAVE TURNED TO AN ALTERNATIVE WATER SUPPLY. AND THAT'S THE FLORIDIAN AQUIFER. AND ESSENTIALLY WHAT THAT IS, IS A DEEPER UH, HOLE IN THE GROUND ABOUT 700 TO 1000 FT. DEEP AND IT'S IN A CONFINED AQUIFER, WHICH MEANS IT'S NOT IMPACTED BY SURFACE WATERS. UM IT'S UNDER ARTESIAN PRESSURE, WHICH
[00:30:04]
BASICALLY MEANS IF YOU DIDN'T HAVE A PUMP OR ANYTHING, YOU CAN OPEN UP THE WHOLE AND WATER WOULD FLOW UP TO THE LAND SURFACE. A LOT OF, UM AGRICULTURAL USERS WILL HAVE A FLORIDIAN WELL FOR SUPPLY PURPOSES. SO UM, ONE OF THE BENEFITS WITH THAT IS IT HAS A MUCH HIGHER YIELD. YOU'RE ABLE TO GET MORE WATER MORE BANG FOR YOUR BUCK WITH A FLORIDA WELL, NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. SO THIS IS A PICTURE. I'M SORRY. COULD YOU COULD YOU BOUNCE BACK ONE? I JUST WANT TO POINT OUT TWO THINGS HERE. THE PICTURE ON THE LEFT WITH THAT IS THAT'S A FLORIDIAN AQUIFER. WELL UM, THAT WAS DRILLED IN MARTIN COUNTY VERY RECENTLY. AND WHAT YOU SEE ON THE RIGHT IS A DRILL RIG FOR A DEEP INJECTION WELL, WHICH WILL DISCUSS HERE IN A LITTLE BIT. GO TO THE NEXT ONE. UH THIS IS A PICTURE OF WHAT'S CALLED THE REVERSE OSMOSIS TRAIN AT A WATER PLANT IN PALM BEACH COUNTY . UM WE MENTIONED THAT ROO, UM, WITH FLORIDA AQUIFER WATER. IT'S MORE BRACKISH, SO IT'S VERY SALTY, VERY AGGRESSIVE WATER, SO THE MATERIALS OF CONSTRUCTION TO BE ABLE TO WITHSTAND THE CORROSION, UH, HAVE TO BE SUPERIOR, SO THAT MEANS AN ELEVATED COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH IT. THE ENERGY COSTS AS WELL ARE ALSO HIGHER. YOU HEAR ABOUT SALTWATER ARO PLANTS BEING HIGH. UM HI ENERGY USERS, AND THAT'S BECAUSE IT TAKES A LOT OF ENERGY TO REMOVE THAT SALT FROM SOLUTION AND MAKE THE WATER CLEAN. UM SO STAINLESS STEEL PIPING THAT SORT OF THING, AND THIS IS A GOOD EXAMPLE OF THAT. UM SO WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT THE TREATMENT OF THE WATER. YOU BASICALLY HAVE A WATER STREAM GOING IN. YOU'VE GOT CLEAN WATER THAT'S GOING TO BE GOING TO POST TREATMENT FOR YOUR CUSTOMERS GOING OUT AND THEN YOU ALSO HAVE A REJECT STREAM OR CONCENTRATE STREAM. AND I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT I CLEARLY STATE THIS WHAT A CONCENTRATE STREAM IS PURELY UH , CONCENTRATED STREAM OF THE SALT WATER THAT CAME FROM THE AQUIFER. IT'S NOT A IT'S NOT A WASTE STREAM. IT'S PURELY JUST CONCENTRATED GROUNDWATER THAT'S BEEN REMOVED. UH, FROM SOLUTION. SO, UM. WITH A CONCENTRATED GROUNDWATER. IT'S HOT. IT'S VERY BRACKISH. SO YOU GET GET INTO TROUBLES WITH DISPOSING OF THIS THIS WATER TO SURFACE WATERS OR BODIES OF THE STATE. UM SO PERMITTING BECOMES A VERY BIG HASSLE, SO IN TERMS OF IMPLEMENTING THE SOLUTION, A BIG PROBLEM, THE TAIL WAGGING THE DOG, SO TO SPEAK, IS WHERE DO YOU PUT THIS WATER? AND THAT'S WHERE DEEP INJECTION WELLS COME IN. LOT OF MUNICIPALITIES HAVE IMPLEMENTED AND THEY'VE ALSO IMPLEMENTED IT IN A WAY THAT IT'S BEEN A CO LOCATED FACILITY TO SERVE NOT ONLY THE WATER NEEDS BUT THE WASTE WATER NEEDS FOR THE MUNICIPALITY. UM. I THINK A PACK CAN ELABORATE, OR, UM, ON THIS FURTHER, BUT I BELIEVE THE WASTEWATER PLANTS CURRENTLY AFFLUENT LTD. WHICH MEANS THAT THE CAPACITY OF THE WASTEWATER PLANT IS LIMITED TO THE WATER THAT IT CAN DISPOSE OF ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE TREATMENT PROCESS. SO WITH IMPLEMENTING SOMETHING LIKE A DEEP INJECTION. WELL WHAT THAT DOES THAT PROVIDES. YOU PROVIDES THE VILLAGE WITH SOME RESILIENCY AND SUSTAINABILITY MOVING INTO THE FUTURE. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. SO THIS IS THE PART WHERE EVERYBODY WAKES UP AND SEES THE COSTS. UM SO, UM, YOU KNOW, THERE'S TOM MENTIONED OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS. CONSTRUCTION COSTS, MATERIAL COSTS, SUPPLY CHAIN ISSUES HAVE ALL IMPACTED. EVERYBODY NOT JUST THE VILLAGES AS SHOWN IN A COUPLE OF SLIDES AGO AND THE COST TO BE EXPECTED. SO UM, FLORIDIAN AQUIFER WELLS ARE EXPENSIVE. THEY'RE DEEP.IT'S THE DRILLING OPERATION IS PRETTY SIGNIFICANT. THERE'S FEW DRILLERS IN THE AREA THAT ARE CAPABLE OF DOING THIS TYPE OF WORK. AND THEY'RE ALSO SUPER BUSY, TOO, SO THEY PRICE THEIR WORK ACCORDINGLY. UM, CONCENTRATE DISPOSAL. THAT'S A SIGNIFICANT HOLE IN THE GROUND.
IT'S ABOUT 3000 FT DEEP COMPARED TO THE SUPPLY WELLS THAT ARE ABOUT 7 TO 1000 FT. DEEP, SO A LOT OF COSTS IN THE INFRASTRUCTURE TO SUPPORT IT HIGH CAPITAL COSTS BUT AGAIN THAT BEING A DISADVANTAGE THE ADVANTAGE OF BEING A SUSTAINABLE SOURCE FOR THE VILLAGE MOVING FORWARD. PLEASE. SO, UM. OBVIOUSLY THERE'S UH THERE'S THE GRAPH THAT TOM HAD SHOWN EARLIER THAT DISPLAYS THE DEMANDS OVER TIME WITH 2026 27 KIND OF BEING THAT BREAKING POINT OF EXCEEDING WHAT THE VILLAGE HAS TO OFFER IN TERMS OF CAPACITY WITH THE COMMITTED, UM THINK OF IT THAT THE WATER COMMITMENTS TO THE DEVELOPERS UM, YOU KNOW, THERE'S A TIGHT WINDOW TO GET ALL THIS DONE. IT'S UM IT'S A DESIGN. AND PERMITTING SCHEDULE THAT COULD TAKE, UH, UP TO A YEAR AND SIX MONTHS TO COMPLETE JUST BECAUSE IT'S A SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENT. UM. AND UPON COMPLETION OF THAT
[00:35:06]
PERMITTING OR CONCURRENT TO THAT PERMITTING, UH, THE DESIGN WOULD HAVE TO BE DONE FOR THE REVERSE OSMOSIS FACILITY ITSELF. THE WELLHEADS, UM THE ELECTRICAL ALL OF THE INFRASTRUCTURE THAT'S GOING TO SUPPORT THAT. SO UM TERRENCE GOING TO TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT SOME THINGS THAT THE VILLAGE COULD DO TO EXPEDITE OR GET GET STARTED. GET THE BALL MOVING ON THAT WITH REGARDS TO PERMITTING OF THE WELL FIELD. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. SO IN CLOSING, UM. THE WATER PLANT IMPROVEMENTS PROJECTS STILL VERY IMPORTANT TO ENHANCE THE FINISHED WATER QUALITY THAT THE VILLAGES CURRENTLY SENDING OUT TO ITS CUSTOMERS DOES NOTHING TO ADDRESS CAPACITY OR NOT INCREASING CAPACITY. BY ANY STRETCH, THERE WILL BE ANOTHER TANK, WHICH IS KIND OF MISLEADING FROM THE CAPACITY STANDPOINT, BUT THERE IS NO MORE WATER THAT THE VILLAGE CAN PUT OUT BEYOND THAT 1 MILLION GALLONS THAT TOM HAD MENTIONED. PENDING DEVELOPMENTS WOULD RESULT IN THE TRADITIONAL 2 MILLION GALLONS PER DAY OF CAPACITY. THAT THAT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED TO BE ADDED TO BUY YOU SOME TIME BEYOND THE DEVELOPMENT SO THAT YOU HAVE SOME CUSHION UNTIL YOU HIT THE 75. CAPACITY UNDER THE NEXT ROUND. UM FEASIBLE ALTERNATIVE TO HANDLE THIS. THIS GROWTH IS LOOKING AT THE PORNOGRAPHER, REVERSE OSMOSIS AND DEEP INJECTION. WELL, BEING THAT THE SIGNIFICANT INFRASTRUCTURE NEEDED TO SUPPORT THIS AND ANTICIPATE TIMEFRAME IS AROUND FOUR YEARS. TO COMPLETE SO WITH THAT, I'LL CLOSE AND LEAVE IT OPEN FOR QUESTIONS. AND MADAM MAYOR. WE ARE ASKING ON THIS ITEM FOR PERMISSION FOR US TO, UH START THIS EXPEDITED PROCESS AND PERMITTING PROCESS AND NOT TO EXCEED $150,000 IN WORKING WITH MR JENSEN. WE BELIEVE THAT THAT WILL BE A GOOD START TO GET US GOING, AND WE HAVE THOSE FUNDS IN THE UTILITY FUND CURRENTLY, SO THAT WOULD BE THE ONLY DIRECTION OR APPROVAL THAT I WOULD BE LOOKING FOR THIS EVENING. OKAY. THANK YOU. UM, DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? YES, COUNCIL MEMBER HERNANDEZ. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRESENTATION . SO JUST, UM RECAPPING ON WHAT YOU SAID. THIS IS NOT TO INCREASE OUR CAPACITY IS TO INCREASE EARN BETTER QUALITY.YES SO THE BROUGHT THE PROJECT THAT'S SEPARATE FROM WHAT WE'RE DISCUSSING TONIGHT. THE ONE THAT'S OUT FOR BIG RIGHT NOW, THAT IS PURELY A WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS SO REPLACING EXISTING TREATMENT EQUIPMENT WITH NEW TREATMENT EQUIPMENT THAT'S GOING TO BE COMMENSURATE WITH THE STANDARDS THAT WE EXPECT FROM A REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM. SO THIS PROJECT RIGHT HERE THAT YOU'RE PRESENTING TO US? THAT'S TO INCREASE CAPACITY TO ADD CAPACITY TO THE SYSTEM YET, OK, I KNOW STUDIO PERSON LUCY IS DOING? CERTAIN STUFF TO INCREASE BECAUSE THEY'RE BOOMING DOWN THERE. UM CURRENTLY AT THE PROPOSED NEW AH WAYS. TREATMENT PLANT SITE. THAT'S WHAT'S THERE CURRENTLY. THE SITE THAT I HAD ON THE MAP. GO BACK A FEW SLIDES. I CAN DESCRIBE THAT. IT'S THE MAP WITH THE SLIDE NINE . AND IS THAT BEING USED FOR SOMETHING CURRENTLY? YES IT IS. OKAY UM, I DID HAVE A RESIDENT ASKED ME RECENTLY. WHERE DOES OUR WATER COME FROM? SO THAT'S A GREAT YOUR WATER. YOUR WATER COMES FROM THE WELL FIELD SO ALL THE HOLES IN THE GROUND THAT WE DRAW WATER FROM AND PUMP TO THE WATER PLANT. THAT'S WHERE THE VILLAGES WATER COMES FROM. WATER. KIND OF HAS THIS LIFE CYCLE OF WHAT? WHAT GOES IN MUST GO OUT KIND OF THING. RIGHT SO YOU YOU DRINK IT. YOU DISPOSE OF IT GOES TO THE SANITARY SYSTEM.
IT GOES TO THE WASTEWATER PLANT. THE WASTEWATER PLANT TREATS IT. BUT YOU CAN'T JUST DESTROY THE WATER. IT HAS TO GO SOMEWHERE, RIGHT. SO RIGHT NOW WITH THE VILLAGE HAS WHAT'S CALLED PERK PONDS OR RAPID INFILTRATION BASINS. I'M NOT SURE THE EXACT TERMINOLOGY THERE'S A COUPLE OF THEM THAT ARE LOCATED ON THE WASTEWATER PLANT SITE THAT'S NORTHWEST OF HERE OF THE IMAGE THAT YOU SEE THERE. THESE TWO PONDS THAT YOU SEE. THERE ARE ALSO PART PONDS, AND THEY'RE OFFSITE PONDS THAT THE VILLAGE USES TO SUPPLEMENT THE PONDS THAT THEY HAVE AT THE WASTEWATER PLANT BECAUSE THEY ARE AFFLUENT LIMITED, MEANING YOU CAN'T TREAT MORE THAN YOU CAN DISPOSE OF, AND THAT'S WHAT THOSE TWO PONDS ARE FOR. OKAY SO THE COSTS EXPECTATION. THIS IS FOR DRINKING WATER, CORRECT. YEAH, THE CAPACITY EXPANSION WOULD BE FOR DRINKING. OKAY BECAUSE WASTEWATER WE ALREADY HAVE THOSE FUNDS UP. COMING CORRECT. WHERE WHERE I MAY HAVE CONFUSED YOU IS IN THE DISPOSAL. WELL THE DEEP INJECTION WELL, THAT COULD BE MULTIPURPOSE TO SERVE NOT ONLY
[00:40:06]
THE DRINKING WATER PLANT BUT ALSO THE WASTEWATER PLANT. IN ADDITION TO THE IMPROVEMENTS THAT YOU'RE DOING, OKAY? OKAY. THANK YOU. AH! VICE MAYOR STONE. DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING? NO, NOT AT ALL. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. SO WE ALREADY HAVE. FUNDING FOR THE IMPROVEMENT OF DRINKING. WATER.ALREADY FUNDED. CORRECT, OKAY? NOW YOU JUST SAID THAT THAT, UM DEEP INJECTION. COULD BE USED BY BOTH. CORRECT, OKAY? SO. THE WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT THAT IS ALREADY FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND THAT IS ALREADY FUNDING. REMOVING AHEAD FOR WITH THAT. IS THAT A PART OF THAT? MOVING FORWARD HAVE IS THAT A DEEP INJECTION WELL IN THOSE CURRENT PLANS WITH THE WASTEWATER UNDERSTANDING IS NO. I'D LIKE TO SPEAK TO THAT. OKAY, SO THAT'S SOMETHING THAT'S NOT FUNDED. IT DIDN'T CATCH IT WITH THE WASTEWATER, OKAY? WELL THE REASON FOR THAT IS BECAUSE WE NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT THIS CO LOCATION UNTIL WE WENT AND MET WITH THE WATER MANAGEMENT DISTRICT AND THEY'RE THE ONES THAT RECOMMENDED IT. OKAY AND THAT'S WHEN WE STARTED FOCUSING ON THAT NEED. OKAY. GOOD. OKAY. THANK YOU. AS FAR AS THE FUNDING PEACE. BE HONEST, MIKE YEAH. PAT NOLAN FOR THE RECORD. WHEN WE TALK TO SOUTH FLORIDA WATER MANAGEMENT DISTRICT LIKE TERRENCE SAID. THAT'S WHEN WE STARTED THINKING ABOUT A DEEP INJECTION. WELL, PART OF THIS PROCESS IS OBVIOUSLY FUNDING AND WE'RE GOING TO GO TO SOUTH FLORIDA WATER MANAGEMENT DISTRICT AND ASK FOR FUNDING FOR THE TO FLORIDA WELLS AND THE DEEP INJECTION. WELL, IT'S NOT A GUARANTEE. BUT THAT IS PART OF THE PLAN THAT WE'VE COME TO COME COME UP WITH, AND THAT'S WHY WE ARE ASKING ABOUT LOOKING FOR THE GOING FOR THE PERMITTING FOR THE WELLS NOW. TO SPEED UP THE PROCESS, SO THAT WHILE THEY'RE WORKING WHILE WE'RE WORKING ON FUNDING, WE CAN AT LEAST GET THAT TOGETHER SO THAT WHEN WE HAVE THE FUNDING WILL HAVE A WILL BE FARTHER ALONG IN OUR PLAN. WILL BE ABLE TO LIKE YOU SAY, MOVE, MOVE FASTER TO HAVE THAT. AND THAT 150,000. IT IS STATED THAT. IT IS. WE DO HAVE IT IN THE BUDGET. IT IS AVAILABLE. YES MA'AM. I CHECKED WITH MIKE BECAUSE WE'VE HAD SOME OF OUR DEVELOPERS ALREADY PAID TOWARD THEIR CONNECTION FEES.
AND SO WERE WE DO HAVE THAT IN OUR UTILITY FUND. OKAY? AND THAT'S THAT'S THE ASK THIS EVENING JUST TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THAT ONE PIECE IN ORDER TO GET US GET US SET UP GOING. GET US GOING, GET US SET UP TO MOVE ON THE OTHER, OKAY? DO I HAVE A MOTION MOTION? DO I HAVE A 2ND 2ND? IS THERE ANY FURTHER? COUNCIL DISCUSSION. DO YES, COUNCIL? NEVER HERNANDEZ, SO WE'RE GOING WITH THE DEEP BECAUSE HE THERE WAS OPTIONS IN THE PRESENTATION. YES, THE IDEA WITH THE DEEP WELLS IS WITH THIS OFFICIAL WELSH THEY'RE SHALLOW. THEY'RE ONLY 50 60 FT DEEP SO THEY CAN BE CONTAMINATED EASIER. THEY ALSO CAN BE DRAWN DOWN EASIER BECAUSE THEY ARE SO SHALLOW WHEN YOU GO TO THE DEEPER WELL. IT'S YOU HAVE A BETTER I WANT TO GUARANTEE BUT YOUR WATER SOURCE WILL BE MORE RELIABLE. AND MORE RESILIENT, SO YOU HAVE LESS LONG TERM PROBLEMS WITH THIS OFFICIAL WELLS. YOU DON'T KNOW IF WE HAVE A DRY SUMMER, WE MIGHT HAVE A HARD TIME GETTING WATER OUT OF THE GROUND. SO THAT'S WHERE THE DEEP WELLS COME IN, AND THEN AGAIN WITH A DEEP, WELL INJECTION. WHEN YOU GO TO GET TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR CONCENTRATE. YOU'RE NOT AFFECTING GROUNDWATER. YOU'RE NOT AFFECTING ANY OF YOUR. YOU KNOW ANYTHING ON THE SURFACE, SO IT'S BETTER FOR THE AS WELL. ANN SO THAT DEEP, WELL COST IS WHICH ONE BECAUSE THERE'S LIKE IS IT ALL THREE OF THEM? WELL, WE'RE HEARING NUMBERS ABOUT $14 MILLION TO $16 MILLION JUST FOR THE DEEP, WELL, 14 TO 16 MILLION BECAUSE I WAS TRYING TO FIGURE IS IT? UM WHEN ONE PLAN FOR THE DEEP WELL, OR IS IT JUST 11 DEEP. WELL 100 TALK. WE'VE THE NUMBERS ARE 14 TO 16 MILLION FLORIDA WELLS OR SOMEWHERE BETWEEN THAT TIME IT PROBABLY BE A LITTLE BIT MORE VERY WELL BE.
YES THAT'S WHY WE WANT TO. WE DON'T WANT TO GET TO IT NOW. ABSOLUTELY. THANK YOU. AND I
[00:45:04]
THINK THAT ALSO STATING AND IT'S KIND OF AN EYE OPENER THAT WE DON'T WE DON'T HAVE BACKUP. WE DON'T HAVE ANYTHING OTHER THAN NO PART OF THIS IS THE PROJECT WE'RE WORKING ON NOW. WE TALKED ABOUT IT'S FOR WATER QUALITY, BUT IT'S ALSO FOR RELIABILITY. AND REDUNDANCY. SO. THIS WILL PUT US IN A BETTER PLACE FOR SURE. IT'LL MAKE US MUCH MORE RELIABLE AND AGAIN, IT WILL GIVE US QUALITY. THE WATER WILL IMPROVE TREMENDOUSLY WHEN WE GET THAT PLAN ONLINE, AND THEN WE CAN AND WHILE WE'RE DOING THAT, WE'RE THINKING ABOUT WHAT WE'RE GONNA DO DOWN THE ROAD AS WELL.MOVING FORWARD. ABSOLUTELY. DO WE HAVE ANY PUBLIC COMMENTS? NO, MADAM MAYOR. THANK YOU. OKAY WE HAVE EMOTION. WE HAVE A SECOND. ALL IN FAVOR. AYE. PASSED UNANIMOUSLY. THANK YOU, GENTLEMEN. WE APPRECIATE IT. OKAY?

Land Development Regulations (LDRs) Sections Recommended to Review
]NUMBER NINE. MINE DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS. L D. R S. YES, MADAM MAYOR, UM THIS WAS ASKED TO BE PUT ON THE AGENDA. WE HAVE PUT THINGS ON OUR WEBSITE STAFF HAS BEEN WORKING ON THAT. WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED A WHOLE LOT OF COMMENTS TODAY. ONE UM AND THEN ALSO, I WAS APPROACHED BY ONE OF YOUR PC ABT MEMBERS AND THEY ASKED IF WE COULD PLEASE. HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF AN EXTENSION OF TIME. UM SO WE CAN EITHER GET STARTED ON THE COMMENTS THAT WE HAVE. AND THEN IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS, WE CAN SEE WHERE WE ARE, AND THEN WE CAN ADDRESS THOSE AS WELL. WHATEVER THE COUNCIL, OKAY COUNCIL. UM AND I. I THINK THAT WE MAY NEED TO. LISTEN TO A REQUEST FROM A PC, A BOARD MEMBER. ALSO, THE WEBSITE WAS DOWN. YEAH SO THAT KIND OF HAMPERED ANYBODY FROM FROM ACTUALLY UTILIZING THAT, SO I THINK THAT THAT MAY BE A AN ISSUE TOO. SO I DON'T I DON'T SEE, UM, A PROBLEM WITH A TWO WEEK EXTENSION. IS THAT WE KIND OF AN AGREEMENT WITH THAT. IT'S FINE. EXTENDING IT. TWO WEEKS. UM VICE MAYOR STONE. WHAT'S YOUR DEGREE IN OKAY. IT LOOKS LIKE[01:05:07]
WE'RE THAT'S. JUST STAFF. OKAY GOING THAT WAY AND MAYOR JUST FROM CONVERSATION. PART OF THE MEETING. I KNOW. COUNCIL MEMBER APOLLO, UM HAD HAD A THOUGHT COME UP THAT WE THOUGHT THIS WOULD BE AN APPROPRIATE TIME FOR HIM TO THROW IT OUT TO YOU ALL AS AS WHAT IDEA CONCERNING THE LD R S. IF YOU'RE INTERESTED IN ADDRESSING THAT ABSOLUTELY. AND THE L D. R S. WE HAVE FRONT LOAD FOR GARAGES. WE GOT 5 FT SETBACK. FOR THE GARAGE CONNECTED TO A HOUSE. IN OTHER WORDS. THE GARAGE HAS TO BE 5 FT. BACK. I KNOW. EVERYBODY HAS THE IDEAS, BUT WE WANT TO MAKE CONSTRUCTION AS AFFORDABLE AS POSSIBLE WHEN YOU START ADDING CORNERS. AND YOU START CHANGING ROOF LINES. UM THAT'S SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE UP TO THE BUILDER. I THINK WE NEED TO STAY AWAY FROM THAT. YOU KNOW, UM. WE'RE LOOKING FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND HOUSES TO BE BUILT IN A TIMELY MANNER AND YOU KNOW, HOUSE OF FOUR CORNERS IS A LOT CHEAPER IN THE HOUSE WITH A CORNERS. YOU KNOW, SO AND WE WANT WE WANT TO KEEP THE RENTS DOWN. YEAH AND THE BUILDINGS GOT TO BE ABLE TO MAKE MONEY. I MEAN, IF I WAS AN INVESTOR, I'D BE LOOKING TO MAKE A RETURN ON MY MONEY. SO YOU KNOW, WE NEED TO SIMPLIFY IT AND IF THAT'S WHAT THEY WANT TO DO, AND THEN YOU GET YOU GOT FLOOR PLANS THAT DON'T ALLOW THAT. JUST DON'T WORK WITH THE A 5 FT SETBACK ON THE GARAGE. YOU KNOW, SO USUALLY FROM A GARAGE. YOU WANT TO GO INTO A LAUNDRY ROOM OR KITCHEN.YOU DON'T WANT TO GO INTO A BEDROOM. YOU KNOW. SO 5 FT MIGHT CHANGE WHERE THAT DOOR SETS, SO I THINK WE OUGHT TO LOOK AT PLANS. I THINK IN THE FUTURE. WE ARE TO LOOK AT DEVELOPERS, AND THEY'RE GOING TO BUILD FIVE OR SIX DIFFERENT HOMES STYLES THAN THEY NEED TO SUBMIT THOSE HOME STYLES AND WE NEED TO LOOK AT THE ENGINEERING AND APPROVED THAT THAT HOUSE AND WHEN THEY.
PULL A PERMIT TO BUILD THE FERN. WE ALREADY KNOW WHAT THE FERN IS . WE ALREADY KNOW THE ENGINEERING ON IT. WE ALREADY KNOW ALL THAT STUFF. IT'S JUST SIMPLIFIES. THE PROCESS AND MAKES IT BESTER. SO I THINK WE NEED TO LOOK AT THAT, AND WE NEED TO CHANGE THAT. TO TAKE THAT 5 FT AWAY SHOULD BE UP TO THE BUILDER. SHOULD BE OUT THE HOUSE POINT WHAT THEY WANT TO BUILD. UM AND I AND I APPRECIATE THAT, AND. FOR MANY MONTHS I HAVE BEEN ADVOCATING FOR TO SIT DOWN AND HEAR THESE THINGS IN ORDER TO GET THOSE LD R CHANGE, SO HOPEFULLY THIS PROCESS WILL BRING THOSE VERY ITEMS FORWARD AND WE WILL BE ABLE TO ADDRESS THEM IN THIS. THIS PROCESS WILL BE FINE AND THINGS SIX MONTHS FROM NOW WILL BE FINDING THINGS IN THE L D. R A YEAR FROM NOW.
WE MIGHT EVEN BE FINDING STUFF TWO YEARS FROM NOW. OKAY BECAUSE IT'S IMPOSSIBLE. WE'RE ASKING PEOPLE TO GO THROUGH ALL THE L. D. R S AND COME UP WITH ALL THESE CHANGES THAT IT'S JUST NOT IT'S. I DON'T THINK IT'S I DON'T THINK IT'S GOING TO BE DOABLE. REALLY REQUEST IS THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE BEEN USING THEM THEIR CONCERNS LIKE WHAT YOU FOUND AND WHAT YOU SEE. BRING THOSE FOUR PEOPLE THAT ARE ACTUALLY WE PUT THEM INTO PRACTICE. THEY'RE USING THEM. THEY'RE FINDING THESE THINGS. THAT IS WHAT WE NEED TO KNOW ABOUT. SO WE NEED TO THINK IT'S A GREAT NEED TO HAVE THE DEVELOPERS STAND UP AND SAY, HEY, WHAT'S GOING TO MAKE YOUR LIFE EASIER? WHAT CAN WE DO? YOU KNOW, BECAUSE HOLDING SOMETHING UP HOLDING UP A PERMIT. TO CLEAR LAND AND GET STUFF READY BECAUSE OF LANDSCAPING OR SOMETHING ELSE. TO ME IS LUDICROUS BECAUSE THE LANDSCAPING IS NOT COMING. FOR ANOTHER YEAR AND A HALF TO TWO YEARS. WE HAVE PLENTY OF TIME TO DEAL WITH THAT ISSUE. AT THE END OF THE DAY. THERE'S ONE PIECE OF PAPER THAT'S REQUIRED. AND THAT'S A CEO. SO IF IT'S NOT DONE, YOU DON'T GET THE CEO. SO THAT'S INCENTIVE FOR THE DEVELOPER BUILDER. TO GET THE STUFF DONE, BUT NOW THEY'VE GOT TIME. IN THE MEANTIME, THEY CAN BE STARTING THEIR PROJECT AND NOT. I MEAN TIME IS MONEY, NO MATTER WHICH WAY YOU LOOK AT IT.
SO UH UM, WELL, HOPEFULLY THIS PROCESS WILL YES, ADDRESS THOSE ISSUES. YES SIR. ONE THING TO ADD ON TO THAT THERE. THERE'LL BE A CUP. THERE'LL BE A NUMBER OF DISCUSSIONS AS WE GO THROUGH.
[01:10:07]
LD R STUFF WITH WHAT THE LEGISLATURE HAS DONE THIS SESSION. INTERESTINGLY TO THIS EXACT THIS EXACT ISSUE, THE SECTION THAT COUNCIL MEMBER WAS REFERENCING IN RL DRS. THERE ARE CERTAIN DESIGN STANDARDS THAT APPLY TO SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL HOMES IN CERTAIN ZONING DISTRICTS LIST IS RELATIVELY SHORT COMPARED TO A LOT OF JURISDICTIONS I'VE SEEN, BUT STILL IT'S THERE. UM, HOWEVER, THE LEGISLATURE JUST THIS SESSION. JUST EFFECTIVELY.THEY HAD ALREADY PUT SUBSTANTIAL RESTRICTIONS ON THE ABILITY OF LOCAL GOVERNMENTS TO IMPOSE, UH , DESIGN STANDARDS ON SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL. WELL THEY JUST, UM, MADE IT MUCH STRONGER.
THE RESULT BEING. THESE THESE RESTRICTIONS THAT ARE HERE. UM WHEN THAT BILL BECOMES EFFECTIVE, I DON'T THINK THE GOVERNMENT ACTUALLY SIGNED IT YET AND ANTICIPATE IS GOING TO, UM THEY ARE GOING TO NEED TO COME OUT OF THERE AFTER JULY 1ST . SO IT IS POSSIBLE THAT EVEN EVEN AS WE'RE DOING THE LARGER PROCESS OF HEARING A BUNCH OF OTHER STUFF, OTHER CHANGES, IT IS POSSIBLE THAT ON A FUTURE PCB AGENDA A SEPARATE LD. R AMENDMENT MAYBE RUNNING THROUGH TO DELETE THESE TO COMPLY WITH THAT STATUTE. JUST KEEP THAT IN MIND THIS. THIS 1 MAY NOT BE WAITING FOR THE BATCH OF EVERYTHING ELSE JUST BECAUSE THAT STATUE BEING THERE, OKAY.
GOOD THANK YOU, MA'AM. QUICK QUESTION. I KNOW. HE JUST SIGNED THE COMPREHENSIVE, UM, PLAN TO IS THERE THINGS THAT WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO LOOK INTO THAT I STOPPED WISE. BECAUSE THE COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING THE THERE'S MORE RESTRICTIONS OR FOR LOCAL GOVERNMENTS. YEAH, THAT THAT SO. YOU MENTIONED TWO. THERE HAVE BEEN A LOT AND WE HAVE THE BUILDING, UH, DEPARTMENT THAT HE? YEAH. THEY'RE BUILDING PARTS DEPARTMENT CHANGES AS WELL. AND, UM. HOPING SAFE BUILT IS GOING TO BE RIGHT UP TO SPEED ON ALL THAT BECAUSE THEY HAVE A LOT OF JURISDICTIONS THEY HANDLE, BUT NO. TWO OF THE TWO OF THE DIFFERENT UH OR YOU KNOW NEW REGULATIONS. WE'VE GOT ONE WITH REGARD TO COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING . YEAH THERE WAS THERE WAS A BILL THAT IS CHANGING SOME OF THE, UM THE PLANNING HORIZONS WITH COMP PLANS AND SO ON.
THAT'S PROBABLY GOING TO BE A LONGER TERM PLANNING THING. WHEN WE GET A NEW, YOU KNOW, PLANNING DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR IN TO LOOK AT THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THAT. I DON'T KNOW THAT THERE'S ANYTHING IMMEDIATE THAT IT'S GOING TO DO. THERE IS SOMETHING ELSE. YOU ALL OUGHT TO KNOW ABOUT THAT, AND I'M SCRAMBLING TO PULL IT UP BECAUSE I HAD PULLED UP HERE AND THAT IS SENATE BILL 2 50. AND THAT ONE UM AND THIS IS FOR JUST THE EDUCATION OF THE PUBLIC AS WELL. AND IT DOES NOT MEAN THAT FOLKS IF THEY HAVE CERTAIN LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATION CHANGES, THEY MIGHT WANT TO PROPOSE TO YOU THAT THEY SHOULD NOT PROPOSE THEM. I WANT TO MANAGE EXPECTATIONS HERE ON ONE THING.
SO THE LEGISLATURE UM, PASSED A NEW RESTRICTION. THAT SAID. ANY COUNTY OR MUNICIPALITY THAT'S LOCATED WITHIN 100 MILES OF THE LANDFALL OF EITHER HURRICANE IAN OR NICOLE. ALRIGHT. HURRICANE NICOLE. HAD LANDFALL JUST NORTH OF STEWART. OKAY? UM SO WE'RE WITHIN 100 MILES HERE. ALRIGHT ANY, UH, COUNTY MUNICIPALITY? THAT'S WITHIN THAT 100 MILES OF THE LANDFALL. OF THOSE TWO CANNOT ADOPT ANY COMP PLAN AMENDMENTS OR L D. R. AMENDMENTS THAT MAKE THEIR COMPLAINER LD OR L D. R S MORE RESTRICTIVE OR BURDENSOME. UNTIL UM. UNTIL OCTOBER IN UNTIL OCTOBER. 2025 OKAY, SO. THE IDEA IS THE ENTERPRISE THAT WE'RE GOING TO BE ENGAGING IN WITH THE L D. R S CLEANUP CHANGES AND SO ON. IF ANYBODY HAS A THOUGHT TO PROPOSE ANY LD ARE CHANGES THAT WOULD MAKE THE L D. R S MORE RESTRICTIVE OR BURDENSOME. THOSE ARE GOING TO HAVE TO SIT WAIT.
THEY'RE GONNA HAVE TO SIT IN THE QUEUE AND WAIT TILL OCTOBER 2025 AND I KNOW YOU'VE HAD CONVERSATIONS ABOUT THE LANDSCAPING TREES AND THAT WHOLE THING, SO THAT WOULD FALL RIGHT IN THERE. THAT CHAPTER FOUR AND YOU SAID WAIT. SP WHAT'S THE NUMBER? THIS ONE IS? UH YES.
SENATE BILL 2 50. OKAY I'LL READ IT. BUT THAT SAYS MORE RESTRICTIVE. THAT'S RIGHT. IF WE MAKE IT IF WE MAKE THINGS LESS RESTRICTIVE OR DOESN'T KNOW THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING. I'M I'M ONLY IT'S ONLY CERTAIN ONES. WE CAN MAKE CHANGES. WE CAN MAKE ALL MANNER OF CHANGES, BUT IT
