Agenda 04/28/2020 Item #16C 5 (Public Utilities Budget Amendments)04/28/2020
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to authorize the necessary budget amendments to reallocate Public Utilities
Department project funds.
OBJECTIVE: To remain in compliance and meet the demand throughout the water, wastewater and
solid waste systems.
CONSIDERATIONS: In FY2018, Project No. 50154, “Hurricane Irma,” was established to fund post-
storm repair and rehabilitation projects. The initial budget amendments from other projects provided
$14.2 million in total for the Water User Fee Fund 412, the Wastewater User Fee Fund 414, and the Solid
Waste Fund 474. A great majority of the work is complete, indicating that over $5 million in resources
were returned to reserves within Funds 412, 414 and 474 to replenish borrowed funds needed to execute
other projects.
Projects to benefit from the reallocated funding are listed below. The requested budget amendment total
from reserves is $5,166,000.
Fund 412 Project 71067 Isles of Capri Surge Tank: The reallocated funds will be used to
complete the design of a surge tank at the Isle of Capri Re-pump station. Surge tanks minimize
the water hammer intensity that occurs in the water distribution system. Reducing the water
hammer intensity decreases the likelihood of failure and shut down. One surge tank exists at the
SCRWTP, and by installing another further away in the distribution system at the Isles of Capri,
the level of protection and reliability will increase. ($225,000.00 budget amendment)
Fund 412 Project 70172 Gulfshore Drive AC Water Main Phase 2: The reallocated funds will be
used to reimburse Road Maintenance for milling & overlaying Gulfshore Drive from Bluebill
Avenue to Vanderbilt Beach Road. Public Utilities completed a water project on Gulfshore
Drive, which required multiple open cut road crossings on Gulfshore Drive. Also, the roadway
was showing age and an asphalt overlay project was programmed to be completed. Public
Utilities and Road Maintenance agreed to cost share the mill & overlay where Public Utilities
funded 57% and Road Maintenance funded 43% based on where utility construction occurred.
($175,000.00 budget amendment)
Fund 412 Project 70136 Water Plant Capital - SCRWTP Annex: The reallocated funds will be
used to complete the design of expanding the equipment annex building at the South County
Regional Water Treatment Plant (SCRWTP). The existing annex building at the SCRWTP needs
additional space to store all the required materials & parts to keep this water treatment plant
operating with minimal disruptions. ($108,000.00 budget amendment)
Fund 412 Project 70258 NCRWTP Degasifier Modifications: The reallocated funds will be used
to design and construct additional piping on the existing degasifiers at the NCRWTP. This
project will allow staff to complete the maintenance of these units without affecting the normal
operation of the water treatment plant. ($200,000.00 budget amendment)
Fund 414 Project 70259 MPS 316 Force Main Relocation: The reallocated funds will provide
for a new wastewater force main that will eli minate repumping of wastewater and reduce the
likelihood of overflows at Pump Station 316.04 during power outages. ($1,000,000 budget
amendment)

Fund 414 Project 70256 I-75 Force Main Replacement: The reallocated funds will provide a
replacement force main under I-75 to convey flow from pump stations in the Whitelake Industrial
Corporation Park near the SCRWTP as well as pump stations in the Collier County landfill. The
existing force main is nearly 30 years old and has reached the end of its useful li fe. ($500,000
budget amendment)
Fund 414 Project 70243 Golden Gate WWTP: The reallocated funds provide partial funding to
construct compliance improvements at the Golden Gate City Wastewater Treatment Plant.
($1,410,000 budget amendment)
Fund 474 Project 70219 Leachate Deep Injection Well (DIW): The reallocated funds will be
used for ancillary DIW projects such as aboveground storage tanks, DIW pump station and force
main. ($1,548,000 budget amendment)
The following budget amendment is a reallocation of budget within projects in the Wastewater User Fee
Capital Fund 414. They are required to optimize the use of existing funds prior to the FY2021 Budget.
Projects to benefit from this reallocated funding are listed below. The total for all four pr ojects is
$975,000.
Fund 414 Project 70117 Remote Sites Maintenance Support: The reallocated funds will provide
for renovations at several master pump installations including roof repair and replacements and
new HVAC units. ($250,000 budget amendment)
Fund 414 Project 50196 Chiller NCWRF Ops Building: The reallocated funds will provide for
replacement of the existing failing HVAC system at the North Water Reclamation Facility with a
new chiller system that will be more efficient. ($500,000 budget amendment)
Fund 414 Project 72505 Wastewater Security Systems: The reallocated funds will provide for
security cameras and systems at 14 master pump stations ($200,000 budget amendment)
Fund 414 Project 75019 Growth Management Comprehensive Planning: The reallocated funds
will provide consulting services on utility planning studies and data analyses and to fill gaps in
planning staff needs. ($25,000 budget amendment)
