MEMORANDUM:
TO: Village Council
FROM: Thomas G. Bradford, Village Manager
DATE: May 19, 1989
SUBJECT: Contract for Professional Services to Acquire Permit
for Additional Water Allocations; Agenda Item
In response to the Village's permit application for an
additional allocation of water from the surficial aquifer by way
of an additional well #24, adjacent to the psychiatric hospital
being constructed in Martin County, as well as the Village's
permit application for an allocation from the Floridan aquifer,
the South Florida Water Management has requested, among other
things, that evidence be provided that these additional
withdrawals will not cause lateral movement or up-coning of
saline water nor adversely impact environmentally sensitive areas
or other existing legal and domestic users. This request will
require the utilization of expensive computer modeling in order
to provide the requested evidence. The attached contract
proposed by Gee & Jenson to secure the necessary permits is in
the amount of $18,000. In discussing this with the engineer, I
am advised that approximately $14,000 of the contract is
necessary to provide computer modeling for the surficial aquifer
evidence required and $4,000 for the Floridan aquifer computer
modeling evidence.
The Village is in great need of additional wells for
capacity purposes and for redundancy. Therefore, with this in
mind, and by virtue of the complexity of the request from the
South Florida Water Management District, it is recommended that
the Village Council grant the Village Manager the authority to
execute the contract attached hereto.
