EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to approve a budget amendment in the amount of $65,000.00 to fund the close-out
of the Pelican Bay Fire & Irrigation Water System Improvements Project, Project 74023.
OBJECTIVE: The public purpose of this project is to ensure the long-term reliability of the Pelican Bay
fire protection water system by converting the tire protection water supply within Pelican Bay from the
Irrigation Quality (lQ) water system to the County's potable water system.
CONSIDERATIONS: The Pelican Bay Fire & Irrigation Water System Improvements Project was
implemented in phases as directed by the Board of County Commissioners (Board) as agenda item 16C7
on June 27, 2000. This project is also consistent with the 2005 Wastewater Master Plan Update adopted
by the Board as Agenda Item 10 (B) on June 6, 2006, and the 2008 Wastewater Master Plan Update
adopted by the Board as Agenda Item 10 (B) on .June 24, 2008. (Chapter 8, Capital Improvement Program
for Wastewater, table 8-2, page 4 of 5, line item 150).
The scope of work involves converting all the fire suppressant dclivery systems in Pelican Bay from IQ
water to potable water. The potable water system is a much more reliable fire suppressant delivery system
than the IQ source since the potable water system is always pressurized and is subject to higher FDEP
treatment standards. Pelican Bay is the only community in the Water/Sewer District where IQ water was
used to meet fire suppressant needs as well as irrigation system demand. Upon completion of the
conversions in November 2008, and subsequent live testing in the field, it was discovered that four
additional hydrants in two communities were still on the IQ system. Converting these four hydrants to the
potable water system is the last remaining conversion activity for this extensive project. No new
additional monies are being requested, rather a transfer from one project to another.
In addition, the County is currently negotiating an errors and omissions settlement with the Engineer of
Record for the Pelican Bay project. Proceeds from that claim may be used to replenish these requested
funds.
FISCAL IMPACT: A budget amendment is necessary to transfer $65,000.00 from Project 72549 to
Project 74023 both in fund 414; Wastewater User Fee.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is not quasi-judicial and as such ex parte disclosure is not
required. This item requires majority vote only. ~ JEW.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: This project meets current Growth Management Plan
standards to ensure the adequacy and availability of viable public facilities.
RECOMMENDATIONS: That the Board approve a budget amendment in the amount of $65,000.00 to
fund the close-out of the Pelican Bay Fire & Irrigation Water System Improvements Project.
