| COMMISSION MEETING DATE: 1/17/2017 |
| REQUESTED ACTION BY COMMISSION: PROPOSED RESOLUTION NO. R17-008 - Approve and authorize the City Manager to sign an Agreement for Water Service outside the City limits with James M Colby and Sherry A Colby for the property at 1101 Peak Road, Lantana, FL 33462. |
| EXPLANATION OF REQUEST: The property covered by this Agreement is located in the unincorporated Palm Beach County area outside of the City limits in our water service area, West of Federal Highway and North of Miner Road.
The property historically receives water from a well and the owner now requests that we provide potable water in the future. |
| HOW WILL THIS AFFECT CITY PROGRAMS OR SERVICES? The City is able to provide water to the property. The owner agrees to be responsible for all costs to provide service to the owner's premises. No additional construction is required by the City to serve this property. |
| FISCAL IMPACT: Customers outside the City limits pay an additional 25% surcharge above the water rates charged to customers within the City. |
| ALTERNATIVES: Deny request to provide service. If service is denied the Consumptive Use Permit could be subject to modification. The Utility Department is granted water allocation under the South Florida Water Management District Consumptive Use Permit. The current permit has restriction #19 that states "The Permittee shall notify the District within 30 days of any change in the service area boundary. If the Permittee will not serve a new demand within the service area for which the annual allocation was calculated, the annual allocation may then be subject to modification and reduction." Although it is highly unlikely that refusal to serve one property would trigger modification or reduction of the annual allocation, this provision should be noted. |
