Discuss extended hours for alcohol sales - Mrs. Judy Huffman. COUNCIL ACTION/DISCUSSION Mrs. Brenda O'Connor, representing the Chamber of Commerce apprised the Council of a situation during the Christmas Parade where peddlers out of town come into the parks and sidewalks selling illegally without a permit. Mrs. O'Connor stated the Chamber is requesting the Council give Police Chief Mobley authority to make the unauthorized peddlers leave. Discussion continued among Council, Chief Mobley, Finance Director Parker and Attorney Cook. Council instructed Attorney Cook to draft an ordinance to give the Police Department authorization to remove the peddlers selling illegally (without a permit). Council discussed further a Resolution giving the Chamber the same exclusive use of the parks for the Christmas Parade/Festival as they have for the Speckled Perch and Labor Day Festivals. These issues will be readdressed at the next Council meeting. Mr. Jay Huffman appeared before the Council requesting they adopt the same type of ordinance the County Commission adopted allowing the sale of alcoholic beverages from 9 a.m. to 2 a.m. The current ordinance allows the sale of alcoholic beverages from 7.00 a.m. to 12 midnight. Mr. Huffman stated the businesses within the City are losing business since their customers will leave and go to County businesses that will stay open until 2.00 a.m. Councilmember Entry made a motion to extend the hours to the same as the County, seconded by Councilmember Walker. Councilmember Watford stated for clarification this is just to draft the ordinance and bring back to the Council for first reading and set for public hearing.

Discuss the Professional Engineering Services There was a lengthy discussion between the Council, Engineer Dan Willard and Engineer Contract - Mr. Dan Willard (Exhibit 2). Bill Reese. Councilmember Walker felt Knepper and Willard's prices were not out of line, however he did feel they were being overly cautious and therefore adding items into Phase 111 which increases the cost. Councilmember O'Connor made a motion to accept the proposal made by Knepper and Willard (Phase 111 for the Wastewater Treatment Plant Expansion in the amount of four hundred fourteen thousand seven hundred dollars f$414,700.001: seconded by Councilmember Entrv. 182 September 7, 1993 - Regular Meeting - Page 6 of 15 F.

Council also discussed briefly the Director of Public Utilities position. Councilmember Walker commented had the position been filled, a lot of his questions and concerns about the contract with Knepper and Willard could have been answered by the director. Mayor Kirk stated he would make a move to expedite the City getting a Utilities Director. He wanted to also remind the Council the last time they went through this they ended up with a product much less than desirable, that was a zero benefit to the City and the Council could have gotten somebody out of the applications they had, if they were willing to pay the $50,000 or $60,000 a year salary, which they were not willing.to pay or they could have gotten Engineer Susan Groover (of Knepper & Willard), if they were willing to pay a six figure salary. -This sounds real good but when this issue is brought back to the table is the Council willing to pay for this product? is the Council willing to pay for a Utility Director,- and willing to pay a $60,000 or $70,000 salary for the kind of person with the expertise they are talking about, that would be the very minimum the Council could offer to get them. The City is not going to get these kind of expertise, cause why would they come here and work for the City when they can go out in the world and make more money? He continued further stating it has been agonizing looking through a stack of applications and you almost cry, because you see the applications and know they are qualified but you know you have no chance of hiring those people. They. send these applications out, the Council could not even get most of them last time to come in for interviews even though they knew the salary up -front they still would not come, they responded, but they would not come for an interview because they were not interested in making that kind of a salary. ©IWIW-11 X X X R X - Regular Meeting -Pa Page September 7, 1993 g 9 9 ' AGENDA COUNCIL ACTION/DISCUSSION 11 Y JJ_N A F.

This issue has come up twice now. 7. Discuss a Value Study of the City's Wastewater This item was also discussed in connection with the above item. Treatment Plant and Reclaimed Water Facility Expansion -Councilmember Walker. Councilmember Walker asked if a value study of percentages was feasible for us to do? Councilmember Watford stated it would run a certain ratio, what I am saying is everything in the proposed Phase 111 contract with Knepper & Willard really needed? Is there something we could cut back on? Councilmember O'Connor asked if we were to do a value study how much would it cost and how long would it take? Councilmember Walker responded it might cost us $35,000, it might save us $350,000. He did not know, he was just asking questions, but that he would feel comfortable in the fact that we are doing everything we should do to protect the people that is paying for this system. Administrator Drago stated one of the problems is with the regulatory agencies and the way they have their rules designed. Before the rules were designed to be performance orientated where engineers like Dan Willard and Bill Reese could go in and say I can meet your performance standard by designing it this way and they come to a meeting of the minds to get their permit and go on with business. Everything is technology driven and the rules dictate the technology to use, therefore, it dictates the cost of the project up front and it dictates the engineering fees. It becomes extremely expensive to design something because you are limited on what you can use from a technology standpoint. Councilmember Walker commented basically though. saying that without us doing this and going out and checking everyone of these things ourselves we have no other way to check them? If we had a person that was on staff that was qualified we could ask these questions and he could do the work. Engineer Willard stated he does not oppose the concept of the value study, if a fresh pair eves can find something that saves the City money, Knepper & Willard is all for it. 1"1 Seotember 7. 1993 - Reqular Meeting - Page 8 of 15 AGENDA 11 COUNCIL ACTIONIDISCUSSION FY]EN A nnr� F. NEW BUSINESS 7. Discuss a Value Study continued. 8. Discuss requests for proposals to lease and operate the City's Utility System - Councilmember Walker. Administrator Drago also explained that by using the continuing services contracts, Reese, Macon and Associates checks Knepper & Willard's proposals for the City and vice versa. Discussion ensued between the Council, Engineer Reese, Engineer Willard and Administrator Drago. Councilmember Walker stated he did not think the value study, the way it has been presented would be worthwhile on this project, that was not the direction he was going in. Councilmember Watford commented that was certainly not what he had in mind. Councilmember Walker asked if anybody was interested in pursuing the City getting requests for proposals to lease and operate the City's Utility System. We can workshop this item or however the Council wants to do it. His opinion is it is one way, if we got people coming charging in here wanting to lease and operate we must have a fairly valuable system. He had spoke with Administrator Drago on this item, it would be something you would have to look into to make sure your people would not get kicked out without retirement and a lot of things. But, he did think it was something that deserved looking at. Councilmember Watford stated he had discussed this item when Ben Loftin was serving as the Director of Public Utilities. There are even management companies, where you still own and operate the system, but they provide the personnel and expertise. There are some options that could be looked at. Administrator Drago commented the way it works is the City enters into a contract with that firm for them to manage and operate either all of the system or a portion of it and part of the contract has to do with how much you pay that firm, lets say to treat wastewater. In other words, if you were to contract out the wastewater plant you have to pay that firm a certain amount of money per gallon or per thousand gallons of treated water so the question becomes, how much can they treat the water for verses how much the City treats the water for. September 7, 1993 - Regular Meeting - Page 9 of 15 F. AGENDA NEW BUSINESS 8. Discussion on leasing and operating the City's Utility System continued. 9. Discuss Utility Billing Due Dates - Councilmember Watford. COUNCIL ACTION/DISCUSSION Mayor Kirk stated in his opinion the Utility Authority is still very much alive. If that falls through, this (leasing and operating) may be one of the options we can look at. Councilmember Watford explained he requested this item be postponed at the last meeting. And he was hoping the citizen who proposed this would be in attendance and address the Council, since they are not here he will relay their concern. We have changed utility billing many times. An individual approached him and requested that the utility billing due dates be a fixed date rather than the current system. Currently it is twenty-five days after the billing date and we bill in two cycles, one for City, one for County. Where the problem occurs is that billing date is not the same every month. Your due date could be the fifteenth of the month one month, the next month it could be the sixth or seventh depending on how the days fall. The request was it be a fixed date. Mayor Kirk commented we have tried so many different things in the past few years. We have tried to make it where it is at least palatable to people, but we are not going to make it palatable to everyone. - Administrator Drago stated one of the problems in the past is you had a due date and a cut off date so close together, then the penalties would add and compound, under this system, everybody gets the full twenty-five days. If you fix a date then that period gets shortened up and if due date happens to fall on a Friday, then that is cut off day and you go out and start cutting off on Friday's, then you have a lot of complaints. We normally don't cut off on Friday's, we try to cut off on Monday's. So that twenty-five days gives us the leeway in order to do it. If you fix it then we are forced to cut off on Friday. Mayor Kirk suggested, if we change it we may make even more people unhappy, this has been such an issue with us for so many times, he personally would like not to touch it unless it becomes such a problem for us that we have to.

Discuss Garbage Disposal Permitting - Finance Director (Exhibit 7). COUNCIL ACTION/DISCUSSION Finance Director Parker appeared before the Council to discuss a problem with garbage disposal permitting. Some local businesses within one complex building assume they should purchase only one garbage permit for multi -businesses. The ordinance does allow for a business to, rather than have regular garbage pick up a collection through L.P. Sanitation which is a mandatory requirement of City to have the collection, have the choice of having a permit on a calendar basis, for $100.00 each year. This is a concern under General Services more than Finance, but out of courtesy, the Finance Department does issue permits when a business comes in and prefers a permit rather than the garbage collection. We need your direction because the businesses are operating without a permit or garbage collection and we are concerned where the license are concerned in complying with all the requirements of the City that they should comply with before being issued a license. They do sometimes come in and get their occupational license and comply with all the requirements including the garbage collection and later we would get a call from L.P. Sanitation saying that they have canceled their garbage and then there is no permit purchased either. Mayor Kirk stated, in the conversation he and Director Parker had, this is something that with the structure of our resolution that they are allowed to do this. Director Parker explained under a part of the ordinance under City's Collection Service, there is a provision of allowing to haul off their own garbage and trash for $100 permit a year. Mayor Kirk commented we have mandatory garbage pick up and he felt this is something the City needs to correct. Discussion ensued. Councilmember Entry made a motion to instruct Attorney Cook to draw -Lip an ordinance (to include businesses in mandatory pick-up) and bring back to the Council (to set for public hearing) • seconded by Councilmember O'Connor.

Attorney Cook continued he would maintain primary responsibility for the suit, keep cost down as low as he could and consult with his brother for time to time. In a fax from Attorney Robert Cook indicates the cost would be $200 per hour and any out of pocket expenses. Discussion continued about the cost. Council requested to postpone this decision to the September 21st meeting. Attorney Cook also state the Council is aware that South Florida Water Management District on August 31st, issued a document in reference to the Beach Water Application which included a staff recommendation. It is his understanding that the District is going to meet this Thursday. He was told this is fairly unusual in that we have fourteen days as it states on the front of the document from August 31 st, to request an administrative hearing on their proposed action. Typically the District will not put an action like this before the SFWMD for discussion or approval until that fourteen days has run, but apparently due to some time constraints they have with their meeting schedule they did with this case. This is the way they have done it and these are the dates we have to work with. 190 September 7, 1993 - Regular Meeting - Page 14 of 15 AGENDA F. NEW BUSINESS 15. Retaining Co -Counsel for the Beach Water Litigation continued: COUNCIL ACTION/DISCUSSION The SFWMD staff recommendation contains some factual findings and conclusions that are somewhat misleading and in some cases inaccurate. In practical application and in some cases outright mystifying as to how such language would be included into this agreement. With the time frame that we have and the fourteen days running out the first of next week, Attorney Cook has been in touch with Attorney Mike Morell on this as it is an administrative matter that he certainly is well versed in, although he (Attorney Morell) indicated that he would prefer to recommend a firm to us to review this staff recommendation and come up with a recommendation to us. The firm is Landers & Parsons in Tallahassee. He has a letter from Landers and Parsons explaining their rates per hour vary between associates and partners between $90 and $115 per hour. Attorney Cook explained further, based on the SFWMD staff recommendation and some of the procedures and reasoning that they used in the report are franky beyond his expertise. He was told there are some items in the report that are hard to explain, whether that means that we should or will file a request for an administrative hearing remains to be seen. He requests authority to retain Landers and Parsons to review the staff report and forward to me the first of next week an analysis of the report verses the SFWMD regulations to determine if it is feasible or advisable for the City to file for administrative hearing. If they were to advise him that such an application is appropriate under these circumstances then he also requests permission for authorization to file it. Council and Attorney Cook discussed areas in the SFWMD staff report they felt were contradictory. Councilmember O'Connor made a motion that we use Landers and Parsons as an evaluator of this to cover our interest in what we are doing here: seconded by Councilmember Entry. Councilmember Watford asked if that included the authority to file a petition for administrative hearing?

COUNCILMEMBER WATFORD- That's ATTORNEY JENSEN- well, she, they COUNCILMEMBER WATFORD- Okay and ATTORNEY JENSEN- The termination was COUNCILII FMBER WATFORD- What shoe proof of that are some, what I got from here, It was It was because she didn't report back after the... determination to uphold the decision to for reemployment on full recovery. to hire them again? again. were terminated and then hired again. but then that she was terminated on the you just said, so... to uphold the termination... basis was the termination issued under? under a disability. that? What shows us that? You got some isically because of, if you wanted a reason 2 • ATTORNEY JENSEN- I believe that that's reason why she was terminated was because s and everyone agreed in the testimony that the r+ iU-MM and June 1st, that in fact the Chief didn't June 7th. Now If an employee is as they any av lives, I mean I don't understand why nobody ci COUNCILMEMBER WATFORD- It would employed somewhere, and I'll use an example, if this date, I'm expected to be back on the date I as employer's responsibility to tell me, well wait a mir you requested, so therefore you should... ATTORNEY JENSEN- I understand, and if thi after her doctors appointment and thattyou known another doctors appointment on May 26th and requested that I go on leave. And he indicat appointment. I think that it was reasonable at continuing that she should call back in after her di one contacted her and said Jo, your leave is u understand that*leave was continued. COUNCILMEMBER WATFORD- Do we h Grievance Committee? ATTORNEY COOK- Yes, It's in your packet, COUNCILMEMBER WATFORD- In other the... ATTORNEY COOK- Not by the Committee, 0 FrLE reason that was given by the City, that the idn't report however, it also shows in there n why, she was not contacted between May i speak with her until Me lives here In town they know where she to see her up until June 1st. m logical to me, most people when their y I'm going on vacation from this date to d It I don't show up I don't feel like It's my your vacation time Is up, or whatever time r had not been a past practice of Jo coming e didn't call in and say to the Chief I've got iy conditions unchanged from when you to her, well call me after your doctors iat point to believe that the practice was tors appointment on May 26th. And that no and you've got to be back to duty. She some type of a written decision by the short letter, the last page. we don't have the discussion held by ATTORNEY JENSEN- I'm not sure how th t happened, I know that is a meeting, the Grievance Committee is a meeting subject to th sunshine law, however the tapes and the verbatim transcript apparently stopped at the tim that they were to begin their deliberations. And no we don't have access to their deliberation COUNCILMEMBER O'CONNOR- Ms. J sent to the Mayor, didn't say that they would rei seriously considered for re-employment upon ATTORNEY JENSEN- That is correct. COUNCILMEMBER O'CONNOR- That's a I it. In this letter that the Grievance Committee her, with the addition of this person being different from the way that you described ATTORNEY JENSEN- No, what I'm saying to you Is that I believe that this letter states that the reason why she was terminated is because shi i has a disability. That if In fact she did not have this disability, she would not have been term nated in the first place and she would have been able to continue her employment here. COUNCILMEMBER O'CONNOR- Another does it become the employees responsibility to co when your, you know. ATTORNEY JENSEN- She came in here on tion that I would ask you is, at what point the Police Department and let them know 27th. And in fact since.... COUNCILMEMBER O'CONNOR- 1 know, by what I'm referring to is when you said that she lives right here in town and they could have we t and found her. I mean there has to be a point here where it's the employees responsibility t look after their job as well. 3 0 0 PIL..e ATTORNEY JENSEN- And I am agreeing th you. I'm saying that she was under the understanding that she was to contact them on 27th and did in fact come in here on the 27th to indicate what had taken place a her doctor's pointment. COUNCILMEMBER O'CONNOR- Weii, I d this document (verbatim of hearing) here In It's entirety and there's some areas in there t t leads me to believe that it's bordering on Insubordination on her part, the way that I read t t. About the dates the she was suppose to be back and everything else and insubordinatio s totally unacceptable. ATTORNEY JENSEN- I understand your your position. I think that she was under the u that this situation would continue, she would done in the past. COUNCILMEMBER O'CONNOR- Well, ags the verbatim, there is some things in there where no and waswS, that and he said yes, and it was she said It you know, when you would ask 1 the way that it was and it's kind of like your leadh said wasn't exactly true, when what I read in here weren't they Mr. Cook? ...(JENSEN- Everyone was that's the only thing that I can see in this thing tl ATTORNEY JENSEN- What I'm presenting to Committee. It's very difficult at this point to look al since as 1 indicated to you there is no verbatim trr or how that happened. I did get a copy of the tal the Board goes Into deliberation. All I can go on is findings, which indicates that if she had not be terminated, they would not have upheld the term recovery. COUNCILMEMBER WATFORD- 1 don't said. They said they voted to uphold the terms ATTORNEY JENSEN- Yes and they said v reconsidered. There was a question asked and i which they asked here are you 100%, and she i restriction placed upon her that she cannot lift 20 here that with the addition of this person being s+ documentation of full recovery from her physicli Okeechobee. COUNCILMEMBER O'CONNOR- And has ATTORNEY JENSEN- The City of Okeech( If you would like to consider referring her to a COUNCILMEMBER O'CONNOR- it just am been made here during this short part of time. n. I disagree with you but I do understand ending and that the Chief led her to believe after her doctor's appointment as she had , when you go back Into this document here, w you asked the Chief was this and he said nost like it was a denial of everything that Chief a question he'd say no that was not us to believe that everything that the Chief orybody in here was under oath, I assume, worn at the hearing. COOK- yes)... I mean 's disturbing to me. i Is the case we presented to the Grievance iat the Grievance Committee did consider, -ript of their discussion. I'm not sure why and the tapes do stop at the point where s document which they filed, which is their disabled, that she would not have been lion if she would have been, or had a full how you get that out of what they i the addition this person being seriously toward the end of your verbatim transcript sated that she was not. She still has the unds over her head. And that they Indicate )usiy reconsidered for reemployment upon and a physician referred to by the City of been done by the City of Okeechobee? has not referred her to a physician. But n I'm sure that we can arrange that. me what a miraculous recovery that has ATTORNEY JENSEN- it is not miraculous recc ry, she still has the same restrictions that were placed on here on February 10th, she still ci not lift 20 pounds straight over her head, that's the only restriction that was placed on her, 1 as through an accommodation the Chief asked her would she go on a leave of absence an he indicated that she would, that she felt that she was taking a lot of time in going to the d ors. I did want you to be aware of the Americans with I It's Impact. And I wanted you to be aware of I Disabilities Act. That there is an obligation on the Ilities Act. 1 wanted you to be aware of obligations under the Americans with to make a reasonable accommodation 4 • MAYOR KIRK- You don't normally get paid ATTORNEY JENSEN- Sometimes you do MAYOR KIRK- Oh, I need to find one of we should yield the floor to you. ATTORNEY COOK- Just briefly, Councilman you can see that there are some differences in happened on certain dates and who said what on I of the situation Ms. Jensen gave you of course testimony she made. But I think you all know fro In this version with Chief Mobley and the other i date testifying. The Chief testified that he talked ti knew that she was due back on May 19th. She rE at which time he informed her he could not do the It in the first place and she would have to go back do it. She knew the date she was to return. The released for work that she would return on the 191 at the time that conversation was had on the 17thj wasn't in Okeechobee. She was not in Okeechobi that Officer Elde's daughter picked her up at the ai on the 19th to return to work. Getting back to your question Mayor, the transcri Elde did not disclose the accident on her appiica- it was about a month later. I asked her If she upd� She said no air because I didn't anticipate any c any need to and then she said she assumed Off Injury because Dr. Lang in his physical prior to narcotic for pain. So that appears to be the site placed on notice. I would agree with Attorney Jensen that the Ar substantially changed employer/emplo-yee relatior fired because of a disability and the Board upheld In the transcript anywhere. If her condition was su Chief expected her on the 19th. This meeting aboi to the doctor and she would get back to them, matters, you know the Board heard everybody t evaluate what everyone said and come up with the not accept or believe Officer Eide's version of wh wc' KL I know vAmn not done yet but while I've got the appeal after you've heard everyone who wants to need to make a motion to confirm or reverse the re Or to modify It, if you think there Is something els the Board wanted. But that motion will have to be n though It's made up here tonight, will be reduced t, seven days. you're on leave of absence do you? you're on leave of absence. You wanted to speak so I think at this point Connor hit on this. In reading the transcript at these people testified to as far as what ertain date and who met who. The synopsis based on her clients representations and reading this transcript there were conflicts nesses that were before the Board on that )fffcer Elde on the 17th of May. Officer Elde jested that he extend her leave of absence and the City Council is the one who granted the City Council or that at least he couldn't def took the position that if in fact she was The Chief discovered later that apparently facer Elde was up North at the funeral. She on the 19th. Rebel Manson 1 think testified ort on the 26th of May. She was not in town idicated on page nineteen that one, Officer because the accident hadn't occurred yet. her application or tell anybody at the City. ling problems with the Injury. 1 didn't see Farrenkopf and the Chief knew about her employment indicated she was on a mild in that happened as far as the City being irican's with Disabilities Act will and has hips. But to make a statement that she was like Councilman Watford, I do not see that i that she was free to return on the 19th, the the 26th and her telling the Chief she went lief said it didn't happen. These , kind of tify and the Board had to weigh the and best recommendation. They obviously did happened. here. Once this Board concludes the ik here. Then someone up here would mendation of the Grievance Committee. i can do for the Officer other than what Into conclusion, then that decision even Ling and delivered to Officer Elde within ATTORNEY JENSEN- Again, he Indicated an a being Attorney Cook, Indicated that the Board had obviously considered, that's not quite obvious to me. Again it was very difficult to review this Issue without having heard the delibe tion of the Grievance Committee and there are apparently no verbatim transcripts nor Is ther tape In existence of their deliberations. MAYOR KIRK- Is that normal, should that ATTORNEY COOK- That was the objection. we used that day and there was no 6 W , ATTORNEY JENSEN-wasn't� r. NSEN I aware that t y-ws4e going to tape it. I had indicated tl�si. I understood it was a meeting subject to the sun Ine and I was not aware that it wasn't going to be taped. COUNCILMEMBER WATFORD- You to It? ATTORNEY COOK- I suppose so. ATTORNEY JENSEN- Yes, somebody asked... COUNCILMEMBER WATFORD- you^hav when they want to appeal something? �; ATTORNEY COOK- I suppose so. MAYOR KIRK- It's very confusing because COUNCILMEMBER O'CONNOR- Mr. M Elde had asked for It then they would have had somebody could have sat here and listened have sat here and listened to It, the Board red a court reporter like a lot of people do know... ',,what Bonnie just said was that if Officer arvo f MAYOR KIRK- This la still confusing to me on one Issue. Was she Injured, and 1 don't think this had anything to do with their decision, but was she Injured, just for my own mind, was she Injured after coming to work here or before? ATTORNEY JENSEN- After she applied but ATTORNEY COOK- Right. COUNCILMEMBER O'CONNOR- I'm really at Eckerdsnwhen she was working there. ndt ATTORNEY COOK- She did. COUNCILMEMBER O'CONNOR- Well she at the same time. MAYOR KIRK- She applied for work here Is COUNCILMEMBER O'CONNOR- But It di ATTORNEY COOK- She wasn't Injured yet. she was hired. then because I thought she got hurt 't be working there and working here she Is saying. on her application that she was injured. read page nineteen of the transcript. MAYOR KIRK- I understand now. And againdon't think that was, the way I read this I didn't see that as a part of this decision myself. at this point It's up to, does anybody else have any questions, any other questions or Commts? You've heard the direction from the attorney so you're going to have to do something 1 V th it. COUNCILMEMBER WATFORD- Mr. Chaff Grievance Committee. COUNCILMEMBER O'CONNOR- I second I move that we uphold the decision of the MAYOR KIRK- I have a motion and a second. Is there additional discussion? Okay If not all in favor of the motion let it be known by saying eye. MAYOR KIRK, COUNCILMEMBERS OP ONNOR, ENTRY, WALKER & WATFORD- aye. • MAYOR KIRK- Opposed alike sign.

SCOPE OF Phase City of Oke Wastewater Tre and Effluent Reuse PROJECT The wastewater treatment plant expansion program the present capacity of 0.6 MGD annual average d,, AADF [2.0 MGD maximum month average daily fl will have to be increased accordingly in order to a its new design capacity. Consequently, the City will with reuse customers on a timely basis in order nc order to continue and expand effluent reuse capabil I reliability and other Florida Department of Envi associated with the reuse of treated wastewater el permit level site specific evaluations as to then construction permitting can be completed. In order to better define the expansion program, i preliminary engineering evaluation was perform alternatives considered, design criteria and opinions program. The Phase II report was prepared in draft for City review and comment in early February, 199 with the City's evaluation of an alternative program Council authorized continuation of the program oud use of the oxidation ditch type of extended aeration of the detailed design of the facilities, along with FDEP construction, stormwater, SFWMD water maj applications, along with supporting sketches, dram submittal, will be prepared for transmittal to the aae 1 of 6 NO. 1 Plant Expansion FILE ll be designed to reflect an increase from flow (AADF) to a capacity of 1.3 MGD (MMADF)]. The effluent reuse capacity r the expanded plant to be permitted for :d to undertake and complete negotiations delay completion of project design. In s, the plant expansion will address Class mental Protection (FDEP) requirements ;nt. Additional reuse sites will require :use potential before final design and luding possible acceptable reuse sites, a that outlined proposed improvements, probable cost, which was Phase II of this rm (dated February, 1993) and forwarded After several months of review, coupled esented by Bion Technologies, Inc., City d in the Phase H report, consisting of the :)cess. Essentially, this phase will consist nstruction permitting efforts. Necessary ;ement, and City/County road use permit gs and related information required for ;ies by the City. • • Phase III - FiAil Design Based on the above background discussion, the foll part of the project. Detailed construction drawing the on -site plant expansion facilities and on -site, negotiated reclaimed water use contracts. Five (5) to the City, and during this phase, the City will b corresponding with the documents at the 50%, 90% shall be suitable for inviting competitive constructi to permit construction by the contractor(s) select engineer's opinion of probable construction cost wi] with similar work. It is assumed that the existing treatment plant site plant expansion without special permitting, fount necessitate a significant deviation from the antic services under this phase will depend on the spec and reuse system to be built. Although many dependent upon available funding and those ri negotiates contracts for reclaimed water use, the f to be incorporated in the expansion program: 1. Headworks/Influent Structure - To flow measurement facilities not no, IrILE ing work program is anticipated during this ❑d specifications will be prepared for both =site reuse areas for which the City has ; of completed documents will be furnished :ovided three (3) opportunities for review, 1100% completion stages.

ATTACHME NO.1 SCOPE OF SE CES Phase City of Okeecl c bee Wastewater Treati ient Plant and Effluent Reuse Sy m Expansion PROJECT The wastewater treatment plant expansion program s all be designed to reflect an increase from the present capacity of 0.6 MGD annual average flow (AADF) to a capacity of 1.3 MGD AADF [2.0 MGD maximum month average daily fl (MMADF)]. The effluent reuse capacity will have to be increased accordingly in order to w the expanded plant to be permitted for its new design capacity. Consequently, the City will nbed to undertake and complete negotiations with reuse customers on a timely basis in order o delay completion of project design. In order to continue and expand effluent reuse cap es, the plant expansion will address Class I reliability and other Florida Department of E inmental Protection (FDEP) requirements associated with the reuse of treated wastewater a ent. Additional reuse sites will require permit level site specific evaluations as to thereuse potential before final design and construction permitting can be completed In order to better define the expansion program, luding possible acceptable reuse sites, a preliminary engineering evaluation was perform that outlined proposed improvements, alternatives considered, design criteria and opinions o F probable cost, which was Phase II of this program. The Phase II report was prepared in draft f (dated February, 1993) and forwarded for City review and comment in early February, 1 After several months of review, coupled with the City's evaluation of an alternative pro sented by Bion Technologies, Inc., City Council authorized continuation of the a... out] ir ed in the Phase II report, consisting of the use of the oxidation ditch type of extended aeration process. Essentially, this phase will consist of the detailed design of the facilities, along with c nstruction permitting efforts. Necessary FDEP construction, stormwater, SFWMD water rn,,k Lgement, and City/County road use permit applications, along with supporting sketches, dra gs and related information required for submittal, will be prepared for transmittal to the ag cies by the City. 1 of 6 Phase III - Fi i Designs / Based on the above background discussion, the fol part of the project.
