North Orlando Water & Sewer Corporation:
Mr. Jim Clark discussed the problem with Council of the North Orlando Water & Sewer
Corpohtion and their DER permit. He said the company is operating under a non-permit
status with the Department of Environmental Regulation. Mr. Clark said the company
has applied for their NPDES permit which is the permit to discharge from the Federal
Government. He said the problem has been brought on by the fact that Sheoah Golf
Course is not utilizing the effluent out of the lake system in the amount that it is
now being introduced. Mr. Clark said they have offered the owners of the golf course
to pay for the cost of the sprinkling of the golf course in order to off set the load
that is now being introduced into Lake Audubon; the alternatives are the making of the
agreement with the golf course group at Sheoah; second being the land spreading of
this effluent at an alternative location; and third was to reach agreement with the
City to utilize the Iron Bridge facility. He presented to Council a letter which
outlined DER requirements.
After discussion, Council decided to wait to see the results of Mr. Leedy's findings
on whether or not it would be feasible to purchase the golf course; to study the facts
and wait for additional information. Mayor Piland again recommended to Council the
purchase of the utility company.
