Top issues during term (8)(Water Utilities)
Cross Connection Control Manual revision (backflow testing)
Residents would pay for backflow tests half as often, but a contamination event could cost far more.
Water well permitting fees and SWFWMD agreement
New and revised permit fees for well contractors and property owners; amounts set in the adopted fee schedule.
Stormwater manual update and work session
Watershed plans run three to five years each, and the county lacks a stormwater utility fee to fund the backlog of flood-mitigation projects.
Southeast Water Reclamation Facility expansion
Paid back through utility rates and the county line of credit; roughly $200 million total project.
Lake Manatee water treatment plant electrical repairs
$648,478.41 in emergency purchase orders.
Lead water line inventory
49% reimbursement of expended funds through the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund.
Millcreek stormwater planning
A watershed stormwater plan would carry county capital costs (not yet estimated).
Bulk trash pickup changes
Monthly zoned bulk was estimated at roughly $0.96/month per customer; quarterly or twice-annual service about $2.00/month.
