SYNOPSIS: The City of Winter Springs is a participating member of the SR 46 alternative Water Supply project which proposes to withdraw water from the St. Johns River to be used to supplement the City's potable water needs. CONSIDERATIONS: History November 14, 2007 - the City Commission reviewed the Alternative Water Supply Study by CPH Engineers which we had prepared in partnership with the City of Oviedo. The study reviewed long term Water Supply options including Yankee Lake, Aquafiber, SR 46, and other Cities available supplies. At that time, the City Commission unanimously approved the staff recommendation which included participation in the SR 46 project. April 13, 2009 - the City Commission approved the staff recommendation to enter a Memorandum of Agreement with Casselberry, Deltona, Maitland, Oviedo, Sanford, Orange County and the St. Johns River Water Management District for the SR 46 Alternative Water Supply Project. January 25, 2010 — the City receives a 20 year Consumptive Use Permit for potable water from the SJRWMD. The underlying permit premise is the conversion of potable water irrigation to reclaimed water irrigation over the next 20 years. The reduced potable water irrigation demand will allow us to meet future potable water growth demand projections with our existing groundwater supply. 102510 _COMM_Informational_101_SR 46_Alternative_Water Supply_Update Informational Agenda Item #101 October 25, 2010 Page 2 of 3 September 14, 2010 — the SJRWMD finally approves the Memorandum of Agreement after requiring all partners to adopt the District's irrigation ordinance. The presentation made to the governing board is attached. The next step for the partners is to advertise the RFQ for consulting engineers. The advertisement is anticipated to occur in November 2010 with a due date in January. The section process and award of Phase I — Task A should occur by March 2011. The MOA scope of work includes 2 phases. Phase 1 consists of Task A — Conceptual Design Report and Task B — Consumptive Use Permit Application Development. The cost to the City for Phase 1 is projected at $75,000 and is expected to occur over the next 18 months. Phase 2 consists of Task C — Permitting, Task D — Preliminary Design Report, and Task E — Environmental Information Document. The cost to the City for Phase 2 is projected at $175,000 and is expected to occur over a 24 month period after Phase 1. The total cost for Phase 1 is $1.5M and for Phase 2 is $3.5M of which the water management district will fund 30% up to $1.5M. It is anticipated that Phase 2 will not be authorized until Phase 1 is complete. The City has the right to terminate participation in the agreement but will be financially obligated for any work authorized prior to fulfilling the termination provisions. Staff will continue to evaluate the value of continued participation in this agreement at key authorization milestones in the process. FISCAL IMPACT: The cost for Phase I is projected at $75,000 and is expected to occur over the next 18 months. 30% of this cost will be due within 60 days of the consultant agreement execution which is expected to occur in March/April 2010 timeframe. The City has the right to terminate participation in the agreement at any time but will be financially obligated for any work authorized prior to fulfilling the termination provisions.
