INTER - OFFICE MEMORANDUM EDGEWATER, FLORIDA TO: Mayor and City Council , 4 FROM: Ken Hooper, City Manager C.M. NO: 2000 -028 DATE: April 17, 2000 SUBJECT: Southeast Volusia Wastewater Service Mayor Schmidt requested that I summarize the review and analysis that was provided to Volusia County staff (March 1999) describing why the City of Edgewater cannot provide cost - effective wastewater service to the unincorporated/Oak Hill area south of the City of Edgewater. The City's wastewater facility is currently rated and permitted to treat up to 2.75 million gallons of raw wastewater per day. Our current flows are 1.5 million gallons per day. The capacity of the existing facility minus existing flows leaves a balance of 1.25 million gallons per day available for future treatment capacity. • • The City has approximately 2,500 remaining units to be built within the Florida Shores subdivision and has annexed approximately 1,400 acres at the I -95 /SR 442 interchange. The 1,400 acres is planned for 2.5 units per acre or approximately 3,500 residential units. The City has also approved development agreements for commercial development along Park Avenue (FIND, Massey property, and commercial on the north side of Park Avenue to Mission Road). The commercial property is approximately 600 acres and is estimated to require 1,500 gallons per acre for sewer capacity. The City plans to provide sewer service to approximately 6,000 (2,500 Florida Shores plus 3,500 in annexed acres) residential units at a rate of 225 gallons per unit (225 x 6,000) for a total of 1,350,000 gallons per day plus 900,000 gallons per day for commercial development. The City needs 2,250,000 gallons per day of wastewater capacity per day to service our current development plus known future development. As described, the City has capacity to service only a portion of the known sewer demands within the City. Any purchase of the City's existing sewer capacity by the County or Oak Hill, would only reduce the time until the City would have to expand the existing plant. Mayor and City Council Southeast Volusia Wastewater Service April 17, 2000 Page -2- The City has had Hartman and Associates and PEC look at the cost for expansion of our plant. The estimate is $4.50 per gallon of new capacity. If our plant requires an expansion of 2 millions gallons per day, the cost would be $9,000,000. The estimated cost for capacity at $4.50 per gallon is lower than the County's cost for construction of a new plant but there is more to the issue. The location of the new County plant is located closer to the Southeast Volusia service area. The collection/ transmission system cost to move wastewater flow from Southeast Volusia to the location of our plant (northern Edgewater) is $1.2 million more that the County's cost for collection/transmission. This is required because the collection /transmission lines in south Edgewater were not sized to provide additional flow from a service area south of Edgewater, thus a new master pump station and new force main would be required to transmit the raw sewage from unincorporated/Oak Hill service area to our existing plant. In summary, the City of Edgewater has no extra capacity. If the City of Edgewater took wastewater from the unincorporated/Oak Hill area, the City of Edgewater would have to expand its facility at a cost of $4.50 per gallon. The cost of collecting and transmitting raw wastewater to our existing plant is $1.2 million more than the cost of collection and transmission to the County's new facility.
