Winter Springs Water & Sewer - Construction Grant/Wells/Operations:
Mr. Terry Zaudtke, Conklin, Porter & Holmes Engineers, Inc. was present to update the
Commission on the well construction and the plant upgrade. Mr. Zaudtke spoke about
the construction problems with Well Number 5 which is located by Water Treatment
Plant 3 just off of Moss Road. A summary of Winter Springs Water Treatment Plant
Improvements was prepared by Mr. Zaudtke and was distributed to the Commissioners.
After discussion, the Commission was in favor of Alternative 4, to locate a new
Well #5 at the site adjacent to Water Treatment Plant No.3, but larger casings as
recommended by Jammal & Associates and Layne-Atlantic (Estimated Cost $75,000.00).
It will be necessary to check with the City Attorney to see if this has to be re-bid.
This will be on the Agenda for the next meeting.
Construction Grant:
Mr. Zaudtke discussed the letter that has been received from the Department of
Environmental Regulation in reference to the grant amount. Mr. Zaudtke explained
this was a reallocation of funds. A Notice of Award has been issued and a pre-
construction meeting has been scheduled for Wed., Feb. 25, 1987 at 2:00 p.m.
There was discussion of the rehabilitation of the sewer plant. The plant which is
located near the golf course was constructed in 1974-75 and is about 13 years old.
Manager Rozansky explained we are looking for another plant with a lease option to
buy and place this plant next to the present one, completely rehabilitate the old
one and possibly keep both plants. The cash reserves and cash flow are sufficient
to fund this without any effect on user rates. This will be discussed at the 1987-
88 Budget Revision.
Meeting was adjourned 8:05 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,
Mary T. Norton,
City Clerk
