V. Staff Discussion
A. AMUC- Annual Report Update
As far as the rate indexing moving forward , unfortunately we don’t
have Ave Maria here today. But there were some items that we’re
going to be potentially for discussion from our last meetings. We are
planning on within the next couple of months, putting together maybe
an additional meeting for them to come and cover those results of their
findings with you.
For the next meeting the board members ask if they could see
plans for any expansion and forecasted growth in Ave Maria
The GIS section is under our group; maybe we can put together a heat
map, kind of showing up to this point and then what future growth
may look like.
The board members expressed their concerns that the forecasted
growth will continue to affect the poor water quality
All this information is available on the Collier County pollution
control website; where they have maps and reports listed. One
particular report to pay attention to is called the ten years look back, it
gives a nice profile of water quality.
Another issue that the board members expressed concerns was
about the threshold on capacity requirements (This topic will be
added to the next agenda)
The Ave Maria Utility annual report is scheduled to come out on
June 30th
Patricia Sherry suggested to have a meeting when all of the
reports come in
