MEMORANDUM
TO: Village Council
FROM: Thomas G. Bradford, Village Manager ,-7-1*7)7
DATE: November 3, 1989
SUBJECT: Cypress Drive Drainage Project
This is to present to the Village Council the current
situation regarding the Cypress Drive Drainage project, currently
configured as a joint project between the Village, Palm Beach
County and the Town of Jupiter.
In July of 1987, the Village entered into an Interlocal
Agreement with the County and Jupiter to fund the design and
permitting portion of the project, the purpose of which was to
address the drainage problems existing along and around Cypress
Drive. The Agreement distributed the costs as follows: 40%
Village, 40% Jupiter and 20% County. The County is now proposing
an Interlocal Agreement (attached) to fund preliminary land
acquisition activities (total cost estimated to be $9,000+10%),
which has been approved by Jupiter. The problems we have with this
agreement, and with the project are as follows:
o Based on updated drainage basin calculations, the Village's
portion has been increased to 55%, with Jupiter and the County
reduced to 35% and 10%, respectively. The Village's share
amounts to over 50% because the basin includes areas extending
north to the current north end of Cypress Drive, east to U.S.
Highway One and west beyond Saturn Ave. Many of the developed
properties in this area provide no on-site retention of
stormwater. Gee & Jenson engineers have reviewed Jupiter's
calculations and have found that the Village's share would
reasonably be somewhere between 52% and 54%.
o We have currently budgeted $25,000 in FY90 and $141, 100 in
FY91 for this project. The $166, 100 total figure is based on
Tequesta's share of the project at 40% and on the utilization
of Special Assessments to area property owners expected to
contribute 75% of Tequesta costs. To our knowledge, Jupiter
has not committed to using the Special Assessment mechanism.
Our review indicates that Tequesta has never used this
technique, although that does not preclude its use in the
future. Because economic benefits of drainage projects can be

tied to specific properties, these public projects are
particularly suited to Special Assessment. However, it is
critical that the Village Council revisit the issue of Special
Assessment at this time in order for staff to continue to plan
financially for this project.
o The total project costs are currently estimated to be from
$1,460,000 to $1, 550,000. However, final cost for property
acquisition could change this figure significantly, as
approximately 87,000 square feet of right-of-way are
required. Palm Beach County is the agency negotiating for the
property, while Jupiter's engineers designed the system. So,
the Village has minimal control but could end up paying most
of the costs.
o Tequesta is being perceived as delaying the project as staff
have been reluctant to recommend the attached agreement,
especially as it would affect future agreements.
Options at this stage include:
1. Approve the second agreement as proposed. Work with the
County and Jupiter to reduce the Village's percentage in
any forthcoming agreements.
2. Discontinue participation in the Cypress Drive project
and investigate local alternatives to alleviate the
drainage situation.
3. Work to acquire more control in the Cypress Drive project
to better control costs and progress.
I am herein requesting Council discussion and direction. It
is our recommendation that you discuss the proposed Interlocal
Agreement to provide direction to staff. We further recommend that
staff continue to look into ways of addressing the drainage in an
acceptable manner that would be lower in cost than the Cypress
Drive project. Additionally, it is critical that the Council
indicate the acceptability or unacceptability of the Special
Assessment financing mechanism to staff at this time.
