Meeting Date: June 27, 2011

From: Mike Thornton, Purchasing Manager

Subject: Purchase request 43773 to Mark Cook Builders, Inc. for the installation of a new metal roof on the Electric Department transformer shop.

Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the purchase request to Mark Cook Builders, Inc. for a total amount of $29,148.00.

Analysis: This project is necessary to remove and replace a metal roof on the transformer shop building at the Electric Department. The roof has deteriorated to a point where leaks occur during rain events.

The specifications call for removing the existing 26 gauge metal roof and replacing it with a new roof using 26 gauge metal Purlin Bearing Rib Panel (PBR). The new roof will be installed with a 20-year warranty on materials. The roof to be replaced is approximately 8,800 square feet.

The total amount of $29,148.00 includes an owner contingency of $2,000.00 for replacement of insulation. This amount will be used to replace any insulation that has been damaged from leaks.

Procurement Analysis: The Public Works department estimated this project would not exceed $25,000.00. Therefore, they proceeded with the creation of specifications and inviting qualified contractors to submit quotes for the work.

They invited the following contractors to perform a site visit and submit quotes:  Wagner 3  Mark Cook Builders  Guilfoil Construction  Uniqco, LLC  Mott Concrete (No Bid)  Protective Coatings (No Bid) On June 9, 2011 at 10:00 AM, Public Works received the following quotes from the responding contractors:

Additive Vendor Name Location Base Bid Alternate Insulation Mark Cook Builders, Inc. Leesburg, FL $27,148.00 $0.70/sq. ft. UNIQCO, LLC Groveland, FL $27,500.00 $3.50/sq. ft. Guilfoil Construction, Inc. Summerfield, FL $46,000.00 $1.75/sq. ft.

While Public Works conducted this Request for Quote independently of the Purchasing Division, there is no reason to cancel their Request for Quotation and issue a formal solicitation.

While the $25,000.00 formal solicitation threshold was exceeded, the need for advertising per Florida Statute 255.0525 was not activated. Public Works acted in accordance with the procurement policy and procedure of the City; however, the price quotes received were higher than staff estimated. Reissuing this procurement as a formal solicitation would provide no additional benefit to the City. It would most likely delay the needed work and create the potential for further damage to the roof and structure.

Options: 1. Approve the purchase to Mark Cook Builders, Inc. for a total amount of $29,148.00 2. Such alternative action as the Commission may deem appropriate

Fiscal Impact: This repair was not included in the current budget, but adequate Renewal and Replacement funds are available to cover this expense. A budget adjustment will be necessary to add the funds to the Electric budget.

From: Jay Evans, City Manager

Subject: Resolution authorizing an agreement with Simon Property Group, Lake Square Mall, for an emergency response staging area for the City of Leesburg's Utility Operators

Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of an agreement with Simon Property Group for an emergency response staging area for the utility operators.

Analysis: The mall management team contacted staff to renew the agreement for the use of a portion of their parking lot to stage utility vehicles and equipment during emergency or disaster situations. The agreement allows any City of Leesburg utility department and/or their contractors to make use of the area east of JC Penney to stage equipment, vehicles, and crews during emergency or disaster recovery operations.

The use of this area is a potential advantage during recovery operations where there is significant damage in this area. This site provides a convenient location from which to dispatch and respond to this area.

Options: 1. Approve the agreement with Simon Properties; or 2. Such alternative action as the Commission may deem appropriate

Fiscal Impact: There is no fiscal impact associated with accepting this agreement.

Meeting Date: June 27, 2011

From: Doug Drymon, Deputy City Manager

Subject: Resolution authorizing a Letter of Agreement with Florida State University for Professional Services provided in connection with the Certified Public Manager (CPM) Program

Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends the City Commission authorize approval of the attached Letter of Agreement with Florida State University for instruction provided in connection with the Certified Public Management Program.

Analysis: The Florida Certified Public Manager Program is a nationally-recognized comprehensive training and development program for public sector managers at all levels of state and local government, and consists of a total of seven learning “levels,” each of one week’s duration (each week consisting of four days, with classroom hours scheduled 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. each day). A new level is generally held every 2 ½ months, so students can normally expect to complete the CPM program in approximately 2 years. In addition to attending the class sessions, participants are also required to complete out-of-class readings, projects and comprehensive examinations. The seven course levels scheduled to be covered during the CPM class are:

 Management of Individual Performance  Management of Group Performance  Management of Organizational Performance  Managing Organizational Effectiveness  Social Change and Its Impact On Public Management  A Systems Focus  Policy Perspectives

Options: 1. Approve Resolution authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the attached Letter of Agreement with Florida State University. 2. Such alternative action as the Commission may deem appropriate

Fiscal Impact: The City of Leesburg and the Center for Public Management at FSU have agreed that the City will be responsible for hosting the seven CPM class sessions and will pay FSU $3,740.00 per session, plus instructor travel expenses, to cover a maximum of 17 participants. The City of Leesburg will pay FSU $220.00 for each additional participant above this number. Of the $3,740.00 cited, the City intends to cover the costs for three of its own participants: Fire Chief Kevin Bowman, Police Captain Rob Hicks, and Solid Waste Supervisor Steve Lueallen and has been included in the proposed FY 11-12 budget. The remaining portion of the class costs for the other 14 participants will be covered by reimbursements from their respective sponsoring agencies (the cities of Clermont, Eustis, Groveland, Minneola, and Lake County). This means that the City of Leesburg’s direct out-of-pocket costs will amount to $660.00 per session (for three participants) plus a proportionate share of instructor travel costs. Holding the CPM class sessions at a Leesburg-owned facility will result in additional cost savings to the City in terms of participant travel costs and time. The individual class sessions will be held either at the Community Building or at the Cultural Arts Center. Submission Date and Time : 1/18/2018 3:06 PM ____

Meeting Date: June 27, 2011

From: Mike Thornton, Purchasing Manager

Subject: Resolution ratifying the City Manager’s emergency purchase authorization to Robinson Aviation (RVA), Inc. for equipment repairs at the airport control tower

Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends ratification of City Manager’s authorization for an emergency purchase to Robinson Aviation (RVA), Inc. for equipment repairs at the Leesburg International Airport control tower damaged from lightning for a total amount of $46,923.30.

Analysis: On March 31, 2011 Leesburg International Airport experienced a severe lighting strike that caused significant damage to the airport’s tower communications systems, weather systems, power generation system, and various areas of the runway lighting system. This lightning strike directly impacted the safety of aircraft arriving and departing Leesburg. With the support of specific contractors and vendors, air traffic operations were able to resume operations within 24 to 30 hours after the lightning strike.

As for the communications systems, the lightning damaged the air traffic control tower’s voice switch system. This system interfaces the radio systems, the direct communications lines with the FAA Approach Control Center, and other communications services; and is the primary communications between the pilots and the air traffic controllers. Without this voice switch system, controllers are extremely limited in safely directing air traffic into and out of the airport.

Additionally, the control tower’s weather displays were damaged by the lightning strike. These displays provide vital weather information that is used to inform pilots of weather conditions on the airfield as well as providing pilots Altimeter readings required for safely landing the aircraft.

The City immediately contacted Robinson Aviation (RVA), inc., who originally installed the control tower’s communications and weather systems back in 2006 when the control tower was built, and who currently maintains these systems. Upon notification, RVA were on site to evaluate the damage and restore air traffic control communications. Additionally, RVA shipped and installed temporary voice switch console equipment and weather displays until permanent replacement equipment could be procured, delivered, installed, tested and operational for air traffic control. Within 24 hours of the lighting strike, RVA had communications in place for air traffic control operations. And within 30 days of the lightning strike, RVA worked with the specific vendors in acquiring the permanent replacement equipment; delivered and installed the replacement items; and had the control tower communications and weather systems 100% operational. This feat normally takes up to 60-75 days to achieve. The City Manager authorized an emergency purchase with Robinson Aviation (RVA), Inc. from Oklahoma City, OK. As previously stated RVA was able to get the critical equipment up and running within 24 hours of the strike.

During this same lightning strike, the airport suffered damage to the electric access gates. These repairs totaling $12,586.56 were made by Smartwatch Security & Sound, LLC. This purchase is within the City Managers approval authority.

The City’s Risk Manager is pursuing an insurance claim to offset some of the costs related to damage from the lighting strike. The City does have a $25,000.00 deductable that will not be recoverable.

Options: 1. Ratify the emergency purchase authorized by the City Manager; or 2. Such alternative action as the Commission may deem appropriate

Fiscal Impact: The fiscal impact from this lighting strike will be repairs totaling $59,509.86. Should the City recover all damages less the deductable from our insurance carrier, the net fiscal impact will be $34,509.86. Currently, the Airport Operating budget is absorbing the additional expense and Finance will monitor throughout the rest of the year to see if a budget adjustment is necessary.

From: J. Cunningham Perry, Human Resources Director

Subject: Resolution eliminating the position of Electric Operations Manager and approving the position of Deputy Director Electric Department

Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the attached job description for Deputy Director Electric Department. Staff further recommends deletion of the Electric Department Operations Manager Position.

Analysis: There is a current need for dedicated full time project management staffing to ensure Leesburg’s functional and technical requirements are fully met during the deployment and implementation of the Smart Grid Investment project which is anticipated to be completed prior to May 13, 2013. The ongoing need for professional management of the newly acquired technologies and operating systems to ensure the continuing full realization of the potential benefits to Leesburg customers and the utility that will help us reach our 2020 Vision, a reclassification of the currently vacant Electric Operations Manager (Paygrade 137) position to Deputy Director of Electric Department (Paygrade 141) is necessary.

Options: 1. Authorize the adoption of the reclassification of the position of Electric Department Operations Manager position (Paygrade 137) to Deputy Director, Electric Department (Paygrade 141) effective upon approval by the City Commission; or

2. Such alternative action as the Commission may deem appropriate

The person who owns or controls the property upon which such a non- complying device or system is found shall be liable to the City for the amount by which the costs associated with the securing and/or removal of the non-complying device or system exceeds the cost of a normal discontinuance of service. These excess costs shall constitute a lien against the property upon which the non-complying device or system is located, which shall take priority as of the date a notice of such lien is recorded in the Public Records of Lake County, Florida. .

H. Discontinuance of Service Authorized. Any customer whose alternative water supply system is in violation of any City or State of Florida ordinance, regulation or procedure shall be subject to immediate discontinuance of alternative water supply service. The City shall disconnect alternative water supply service to any user due to tampering with any service, for the presence of plumbing cross connections with any other water source, nonpayment of bills, or for any other reason which is deemed by the City to be detrimental to the system. The City shall disconnect service until the condition is corrected and all costs due the City are paid. These costs shall include delinquent billings, disconnection and reconnection charges, and payment for any damage caused to the system. At no time during the period of disconnection shall the monthly service charges be abated. Should service be turned on without authorization, the City shall remove the service and the violator shall be subject to section 22 – 213 of this Code. The City shall have the authority to lien the real property of any user for nonpayment, by filing a notice of such lien in the Public Records of Lake County, Florida; and if the nonpayment continues for a period of three months following the recording of the lien, the City shall have the right to foreclose the lien. Such discontinuance of service shall not relieve any person of liability for civil actions or for criminal or municipal ordinance violation prosecution.

I. Existing Wells. Upon being connected to the City's alternative water supply system, any existing wells on the subject property shall not continue to be used for irrigation and shall be disconnected from the irrigation system.

J. Easements. . This provision shall not be construed to entitle any person to cross the property of another to make such connections. All connections and associated infrastructure shall be placed within duly dedicated public easements or within private easements as to which the customer has the legal right to utilize the easement for this purpose.

K. Fees and Charges. Any user of the alternative water supply system shall pay to have the alternative water supply system and connection installed. Once the service is connected, the user shall pay a minimum monthly availability charge and a usage charge. These charges will be set by resolution of the City Commission, and are on file in the City Clerk's office.

2. Bills for alternative water supply service shall be rendered as a part of the regular City bill for utility services.

3. For purposes of this section, an alternative water availability charge is a charge established by the City Commission for the availability of alternative water supply service provided by the City to a property. Alternative water supply service is deemed available to a property if an alternative water meter is located at the property regardless of whether the property is actively receiving alternative water supply service. The charge shall be billed in the City utility bill of the consumer for those accounts which are actively receiving alternative water supply service and in a utility bill to the owner of the property for those properties not actively receiving alternative water supply service.

L. Location of City Facilities. No facilities will be installed under the provisions outlined in this ordinance nor will any such facilities be accepted by the City for maintenance, unless they are located wholly within a dedicated public right-of-way or dedicated public easement. Any new easement shall be adequately sized as approved by the Utility Director to accommodate construction and maintenance of any alternative water supply system component. No obstruction of whatever kind shall be planned, built or otherwise created within the limits of the easement or right-of-way without written permission of the Utility Director. M Ownership of System. All alternative water facilities and appurtenances within dedicated public easements, when constructed or accepted by the City shall become and remain the property of the City. No person shall, by construction of facilities accepted by the City, acquire any interest or right in any of these facilities or any portion of such facilities, other than the privilege of having their property connected for alternative water service in accordance with this ordinance.

N. Right to Refuse Service. The City shall have the right, at all times, to refuse to extend service on the basis of a use detrimental to the system, inadequate supply of alternative water, lack of payment of required service charge, or for any other reason which, in the judgment of the Director (as constrained by the provisions of this or any other applicable City ordinance), will cause the extension not to be to the benefit of the City.

O. Interruption of Service. The City reserves the right to discontinue service temporarily to any portion of, or the entire, alternative water supply system as deemed necessary by the Environmental Services Director.

The Environmental Services Director shall have the authority to establish schedules to control the use of the water reuse system in order to reduce maximum pressure demands on the system and to regulate usage of reused water to balance with supply and storage availability.

P. Cross Connections. Prior to connecting a user to the alternative water supply system, the public potable water supply shall be protected by installation, at the user's expense, of an approved cross connection control assembly. Q. Unauthorized Work on System. No person, unless expressly authorized by the Environmental Services Director or his designee, shall tamper with, work on, or in any way alter or damage any City alternative water facility. Tampering or work shall include but is not limited to opening or closing of valves, or causing of any water to flow from the system. No unauthorized person shall cut into or make any connection with the system. The offending person shall be liable for the cost of all charges attributable to the correction of such tampering, including legal expenses; but payment of or correcting of such damage shall not relieve the offending person from civil or criminal penalties the City or a court of law may impose for a violation of a City ordinance.

The service valve located between the alternative water customer's irrigation system and the City's distribution system may be operated by the customer only when his private valve, required on the customer's premises, requires repair.

R. Inspections. To ensure that all provisions of City ordinances, regulations and procedures are being observed, the City reserves the right and privilege of inspecting, removing and/or securing any or all devices installed by the customer which connect to or control the alternative water.

(1) Inspections without cause to believe that an ordinance or regulation is being violated shall be at reasonable times and shall not exceed a reasonable frequency.

(2) Inspections where there is reasonable cause to believe that an ordinance or regulation is being violated shall be at such times and shall occur with such frequency as is necessary to establish that an ordinance or regulation is or is not being violated.

(3) Each customer of alternative water shall, by application, give prior written consent to entry upon his premises, and thereby waives any other written notice for such inspection and any right to refuse entry. Failure of the City to obtain such a written waiver shall not affect the right of the City to proceed pursuant to subsections (1) and (2) of this section.

(4) Refusing to permit an authorized City agent or employee to enter onto the premises for the purpose of inspecting the customer's alternative water supply system pursuant to this section shall constitute a violation of this section and shall be grounds for immediate discontinuance of the alternative water supply service by the City to the subject premises.

S. New Subdivisions. The following provisions shall govern installation of alternative water supplies in new subdivisions:

1. Minimum service requirements.

(a) All new subdivisions located within the existing City Utility Service Area shall construct alternative water mains to provide irrigation and other non-potable service to all lots based on the projected amount of property to be irrigated, as well as other potential non-potable uses, including common elements. Alternative water supply service including required back flow prevention devices and taps shall be installed for each lot, with a minimum service tap size of three-fourths inch in diameter. Actual service tap size and potential sharing of service lines shall be reviewed and approved. These improvements shall be completed and in place regardless of whether City alternative water is available to the project at the time of development. At such time as City alternative water is available each lot and other property to which a tap was required shall accept City alternative water supply service.

(b) Site development plans for all new development on previously vacant property where the City alternative water lines adjoin the property shall show irrigation systems connected to alternative water mains where available. Where such service is not currently available, site plans shall show irrigation systems which shall be configured for ultimate connection to alternative water mains by locating pumps or potable water system connections adjacent to the right-of-way or other planned alternative water main location.

(c) Alternative Water Supply Systems shall be required within all subdivisions receiving final plat approval after the date which is 60 days following the effective date of this Ordinance.

2. Existing Landscape Irrigation System. Existing landscape irrigation system located within the City shall accept City alternative water supply service when available as follows:

(a) If the existing irrigation system on such property is using City potable water for irrigation the property shall connect to the City's alternative water supply service when available.

(b) If the existing irrigation system on such property is using a private well located on the property or lake water for irrigation then such property shall connect to the City's alternative water supply service when available.

(c) No new irrigation system for landscaping use shall be allowed in the City unless it connects to the City's alternative water lines if such lines are available to the property seeking irrigation.

3. System design. The layout of alternative water supply systems shall comply with the following design criteria and the adopted standard utility details of the City:

4. General standards. Design and installation practices, materials and methods shall conform with requirements for potable water systems, except where specifically modified by policies or details adopted for the alternative water supply system.

5. Main size. Mains shall be sized based on the anticipated demand for alternative water use based on land use, soil characteristics and potential non-irrigation use. Minimum main size shall be six inches in diameter.

6. Extension of lines to project boundaries. Alternative water mains shall be designed to stub out to the project boundaries to serve adjacent unserved properties. This shall include mains in all rights-of-way, across the entire project frontage on existing roads without existing mains, and to the property boundary via easement when no other access is available to unserved properties.

7. Color coding of alternative water appurtenances. All alternative water supply materials shall be color coded purple from the manufacturer.

8. Availability. Availability shall mean the City having sufficient capacity to provide service to a subject property and the alternative water lines being physically located within 120 feet of the subject property.

SECTION II.

All ordinances or part of ordinances which are in conflict with this Ordinance are hereby repealed, to the extent necessary to alleviate the conflict, but shall continue in effect insofar as they are not in conflict herewith, unless repeal of the conflicting portion destroys the overall intent and effect of any of the conflicting ordinance, in which case those ordinances so affected shall be hereby repealed in their entirety. SECTION III.

If any portion of this Ordinance is declared invalid or unenforceable, and to the extent that it is possible to do so without destroying the overall intent and effect of this Ordinance, the portion deemed invalid or unenforceable shall be severed herefrom and the remainder of the ordinance shall continue in full force and effect as if it were enacted without including the portion found to be invalid or unenforceable.

Attest: CITY CLERK 5C. AGENDA MEMORANDUM

Date: June 13, 2011

From: Jerry Boop, CPA, CGFO Finance Director

Subject: Ordinance reallocating the 2008 Revenue Note for the Carver Heights/Montclair Area CRA

Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends adoption of the attached ordinance reallocating the 2008 Revenue Note for the Carver Heights/Montclair Area CRA.

Analysis: The following adjustments are required to reallocate the 2008 Revenue Note among the projects based on actual and projected expenditures:

Project Current Proposed Budget Difference Budget Beecher St Properties $ 66,000 $ 69,500 $ 3,500 Land Purchases 630,700 627,200 (3,500) Eligible Projects 251,178 181,178 (70,000) Redevelopment Plan 0 20,000 20,000 Marketing Underground Utility Lines 50,000 50,000 0 Entrance Improvements 120,000 120,000 0 Park Improvements 0 100,000 100,000 Berry Park 100,000 0 (100,000) Lighting 80,000 0 (80,000) Sidewalks 94,000 0 (94,000) Infrastructure Projects/Improve 0 224,000 224,000 $ 1,391,878 $ 1,391,878 $ -0-

Following are detailed comments and analysis on the requested reallocation of the budget from Chris Edwards CRA Coordinator. Beecher Street Properties: Under the difference column, a total of $3,500 is shown. A total of $3,500 was transferred from the Land Purchases category to compensate for a budget deficit in the Beecher Street Properties category. The total budget pursuant to the $3,500 transfer is $69,500.

Land Acquisition: Based on the transfer total of $3,500 to the Beecher Street Properties category the remaining balance was $627,200. However to date, a total of $189,546 has been expended on subject projects. The total remaining balance is $437,454.

Eligible Projects: Under the difference column, a total of $70,000 is shown. A total of $20,000 was transferred to the Redevelopment Plan Amendment and Marketing category and a total of $50,000 was transferred to the Infrastructure Improvement Project category for a total transfer amount of $70,000.

Redevelopment Plan Amendment and Marketing: In order to complete newly recommended projects and programs provided by the community- based advisory committee (West Leesburg CDC), a revised Carver Heights CRA redevelopment plan is required. Based on the need to amend the current plan (adopted in 2001), staff recommends a total budget of $20,000. The budget will cover the expense of professional fees and document preparation. In addition to the amendment of the plan, a marketing component is needed. Marketing will help stimulate public and private sector project/program investment and engagement in the CRA.

Park Improvements (Berry Park and Holliman Way): Staff recommends a total park improvement budget of $100,000. Due to the lack of external funding from the State, there is no need to allocate more than $100,000 to this category. In the past two state grant funding cycles, staff has submitted grant applications for development assistance but no funding is available. Staff does not anticipate any funding for the current funding cycle.

Under the difference column, a total of $80,000 is shown for Lighting and a total of $94,000 is shown for Sidewalks. The total for lighting and sidewalks is $174,000. The community has recommended that staff allocate more funding for community-wide infrastructure improvements. Staff recommends Sidewalks and Lighting sub categories consolidate to the Infrastructure Improvement category with a total budget of $174,000.

Infrastructure Improvements: Based on the need for infrastructure improvements throughout all of the CRA (lighting, sidewalks, drainage etc.), staff recommends a total budget of $224,000. Funding for this category is supported by the consolidation of Sidewalks and Lighting total budget of $174,000 and a total of $50,000 from the eligible projects category. Staff recommends the total budget of $224,000 in an effort to improve infrastructure throughout the CRA, especially the current Beecher Street/Griffin Road Drainage Improvement Project in relation the CDBG application.

Options: 1. Adopt the attached ordinance reallocating the 2008 Revenue Note for the Carver Heights/Montclair Area CRA; or 2. Such alternative action as the Commission may deem appropriate

Fiscal Impact: Due to the IRS certificate attached to the various Bond Issues and Bank Notes, both bond and disclosure counsel have suggested formal adoption and recognition of changes in funding between projects by the governing body in charge. This practice has been in place since the issuance of the 2004 Capital Improvement Bonds. There is no fiscal impact on the Carver Heights/Montclair Area CRA.

SUBJECT: Ordinance for annexation of JIREH Investors, LLC property

Staff Recommendation The Planning staff recommends approval of the proposed annexation for JIREH Investors, LLC property.

Analysis The property owner submitted an application for annexation of approximately 15 acres of land generally located on the west side of C.R. 468 and south of Lewis Road, as shown on the attached General Location Map. The present zoning for this property is County A (Agriculture). Currently, the property is used for agriculture and a single family home and the proposed use is for offices, retail and warehousing.

The surrounding zoning of adjacent properties is County RP (Residential Professional) and County R-3 (Medium Residential District) on the north, County RP (Residential Professional) on the south, County A (Agriculture) and County R-7 (Mixed Residential District) on the east, and City PUD (Planned Unit Development) on the west. The proposed Land Use designation for the subject property is City General Commercial. The annexation of the property would allow for more compact urban form.

Also on the agenda for this meeting is a rezoning application for this property, which was recommended for approval by the staff, but denied by the Planning Commission due to public concerns regarding compatibility with neighboring agricultural uses. The Large Scale Comprehensive Plan Amendment will be handled during this year’s required EAR Amendments

City water and wastewater utilities are available in the area. The developer is responsible for all costs and construction work required to make the necessary extension and hook-ups to City utilities in accordance with City requirements. Police and fire services are presently provided in this area and impacts on the provision of these services are estimated to be minimal. Options: 1. Approve the requested annexation. This will give the City jurisdiction over the use and future development of the subject site and provide for application of City standards to this property. 2. Disapprove the proposed annexation and allow the development to remain in the County

Fiscal Impact: A positive fiscal impact will result from the development of this property as shown on the Fiscal Impact Analysis.

FROM: Bill Wiley, AICP, Community Development Director

SUBJECT: Ordinance for rezoning for JIREH Investors, LLC property from County A (Agriculture) to City PUD (Planned Unit Development)

PROJECT: To allow for a commerce/light industrial park

Staff Recommendation: City Planning staff recommend approval of the proposed rezoning for the subject property from County A (Agriculture) to PUD (Planned Unit Development).

Analysis: The project site is approximately 15 acres. The property is generally located on the west side of C.R. 468 and south of Lewis Road, as shown on the attached General Location Map. The present zoning for this property is County A (Agriculture). Currently, the property is used for agriculture and a single family home and the proposed use is for offices, retail and warehousing. The surrounding zoning of adjacent properties is County RP (Residential Professional) and County R-3 (Medium Residential District) on the north, County RP (Residential Professional) on the south, County A (Agriculture) and County R-7 (Mixed Residential District) on the east, and City PUD (Planned Unit Development) on the west. The proposed Land Use designation for the subject property is City General Commercial.

The proposed zoning district of City PUD (Planned Unit Development) is compatible with the adjacent and nearby properties in the area and with the proposed future land use designation of City General Commercial.

The existing land uses surrounding the property are agriculture and single family homes.

Future development of the property requires City utilities.

By a vote of 4 to 1 on May 19, 2011, the Planning Commission voted to recommend denial due to public concerns regarding compatibility with neighboring agricultural uses. Options:

1. Approve the proposed rezoning to City PUD (Planned Unit Development) thereby allowing consistent zoning and development standards for this area. 2. Other such action as the Commission may deem appropriate.

Fiscal Impact: There is a positive fiscal impact to the City through the further development of this property.

5F. AGENDA MEMORANDUM

Meeting Date: June 27, 2011

From: Paul Kalv, Electric Director

Subject: Resolution authorizing an Amended and Restated Territorial Agreement with Sumter Electric Cooperative, Inc. (SECO)

Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the Amended and Restated Territorial Agreement with Sumter Electric Cooperative, Inc..

Analysis: Electric utilities in Florida are required to maintain service territory agreements with neighboring electric utilities in an effort to reduce uneconomic duplication of service facilities. The original Territorial Agreement between Leesburg and SECO, dated February 15, 1991, delineated the service boundary between the utilities and the Agreement was then submitted to the Florida Public Service Commission (FPSC) and became effective on the date approved by the FPSC.

With oversight from their respective legal counsel, Leesburg and SECO staff have reviewed the locations currently served by each utility and find it is in the best interests of both utilities to adjust the current service territory boundary to more accurately reflect currently served customers and to minimize the number of customers transferred from one utility to the other.

Changes resulting from the revised boundary are as follows: 1. Leesburg to retain 17 residential customers on Spring Lake Road north of CR 466A. 2. SECO to retain 13 residential customers on Harris Road 3. SECO to transfer 3 residential customers to Leesburg a. Two customers on CR 466A (one location is currently inactive) b. One customer on Radio Road The attached map further clarifies the general locations of these customers.

Options: 1. Approve the Amended and Restated Territorial Agreement, or 2. Such alternative action as the Commission may deem appropriate

Fiscal Impact: Leesburg will extend distribution facilities to serve the two active residential locations. Line extension costs to serve new customers are included in the current budget. Submission Date and Time : 1/18/2018 3:06 PM ____

From: Paul Kalv, Electric Director

Subject: Resolution authorizing an Electric Franchise Agreement with Sumter Electric Cooperative, Inc. (SECO)

Staff Recommendation: Staff Recommends approval of the Electric Franchise Agreement with Sumter Electric Cooperative, Inc.

Analysis: Leesburg’s current electric franchise with SECO was effective January 14, 2008 and will expire June 30, 2011. Leesburg Staff has reviewed the proposed non-exclusive franchise agreement, which among numerous other provisions, gives SECO permission to occupy Rights-of-Way in the City of Leesburg for the purpose of providing electric service from the date of execution through August 1, 2020. In return, Leesburg will receive a monthly franchise amount which will equal six percent (6%) of SECO’s base revenues collected from customers within the corporate limits of the City of Leesburg.

Options: 1. Approve the Electric Franchise Agreement, or 2. Such alternative action as the Commission may deem appropriate

Fiscal Impact: Approval of the franchise agreement will provide for continuation of SECO’s franchise payment to Leesburg. Franchise payments from SECO are anticipated to total $46,144.29 for the 12 months ending May, 2011.

5I. AGENDA MEMORANDUM

Meeting Date: June 27, 2011

From: Mike Thornton, Purchasing Manager

Subject: Resolution authorizing execution of a Termination for Convenience agreement with Encore Construction Company

Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends execution of the Termination for Convenience agreement with Encore Construction Company terminating a previously executed agreement for construction services.

Analysis: On May 29, 2011 the Leesburg City Commission approved Resolution 8848 authorizing an agreement with Encore Construction Company for construction services related to improvements at the Highland Lakes water treatment plant.

Following the initial pre-construction meeting with Encore and City staff, the City was informed through our Engineer of record, AECOM, that Encore may have omitted a significant cost element from their bid amount, which means this cost element, was not included in the contracted price of $2,020,000.00.

The omitted cost was for the purchase of and providing the Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs) as specified in the Invitation to Bid document. The estimated cost to the Contractor for this equipment is $218,000.00.

Upon becoming aware of this information and prior to issuing a Notice to Proceed, Purchasing staff prepared a confirmation letter, attached as Exhibit ‘A’, requesting Encore to either confirm they could perform the full scope of work for the contracted price or they could not perform the work for the contracted price.

Encore construction responded to the Pricing Confirmation with the letter attached here as Exhibit “B”. In summary Encore requested a termination for convenience and a payment by the City of $25,000.00.

The City responded to Encore, attached as Exhibit “C”, with an offer of Termination for Convenience and no payment or compensation of any kind. The City noted this was a one-time, non-negotiable offer. Should Encore refuse this offer, the City would proceed with termination and may choose to file a claim with their surety for non-performance. Encore responded with the letter attached here as Exhibit “D” accepting the City’s offer of Termination for Convenience with no compensation.

Given the small difference in overall price ($9,000.00) between Encore and the next lowest bidder, Beach Construction, staff recommends approval of this resolution. Attempting to file a claim against Encore’s surety would surely result in legal fees exceeding the $9,000.00 difference. It is in the City’s best interest, monetarily, to terminate the agreement for convenience.

Options: 1. Authorize execution of the Termination for Convenience agreement with Encore Construction Company; or 2. Such alternative action as the Commission may deem appropriate

Fiscal Impact: The fiscal impact of approving the resolution terminating this agreement will be an additional $9,000.00 to contract with the next lowest responsive bidder in response to ITB 110161.

BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF LEESBURG, FLORIDA:

THAT the Mayor and City Clerk are hereby authorized to execute a Termination for Convenience agreement with ENCORE CONSTRUCTION COMPANY whose address is 370 East Crown Point Road, Winter Garden, Florida 34787 terminating an existing agreement for construction services related to the Highland Lakes water treatment plant improvements previously executed by Resolution Number 8848 pursuant to ITB 110161.

Meeting Date: June 27, 2011

From: Mike Thornton, Purchasing Manager

Subject: Resolution authorizing an agreement with Beach Construction Company for improvements to the Highland Lakes water treatment plant

Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends execution of the agreement with Beach Construction Company for water treatment plant (WTP) construction services for $1,997,000.00; and two additive alternates for an additional $32,000.00 resulting in a total contract price $2,029,000.00.

Analysis: This project is to construct water treatment plant improvements at the Highland Lakes WTP. The improvements include site work, construction of a pump building, well pumps and equipment, electrical equipment and systems, auxiliary generator, installation and connection of all valves and piping, ground storage tank, and Siemens instrumentation and control equipment and systems.

The project will convert the existing water treatment plant from an elevated ground storage tank to a ground level storage tank. Following completion of the improvements and ground storage tank, the elevated tank will be dismantled and removed. The concrete footings of the existing elevated tank will not be removed due to their size and the possibility demolition may damage some piping that will be installed in the new construction. The footings do not interfere with the new construction and planned future improvements at the WTP.

The City requested contractors to submit pricing on three additive alternates of 1) Demolition of existing elevated tank, 2) Installation of landscaping on and around the WTP site, and 3) Remove existing chain link fence and install new vinyl coated chain link around the WTP site. The City has selected the contractor to demolish the existing elevated tank and install landscaping. The City intends to contract with a fencing vendor following construction for the fence replacement. Staff believes a better price on the fence can be obtained from a local contractor.

When this project is completed the water pressure in the system will be greatly improved providing better service to the customers served by this water plant. Once this project is completed, this will ensure the City can meet current and future demand thus keeping us in compliance with all regulatory agencies.

On February 21, 2011, the Purchasing Division issued Invitation to Bid (ITB) 110161 inviting interested and qualified firms to submit sealed bids for consideration by the City. The ITB sought offers for a Base Bid covering 11 major components. The ITB included three Additive Alternates which could be awarded to the lowest responsible bidder of the Base Bid, should funds be available. All bids received were below the $2,700,000.00 engineer’s opinion of estimated cost which will allow including Additive Alternates.

On March 22, 2011, the City received nine responses to the invitation to bid. The City engineer for this project (AECOM, USA) reviewed the bid submittals and recommended award of the bid to the lowest bidder, Encore Construction Company, following a detailed review of their bid and references.

Following award and execution of the Agreement with Encore Construction Company by the City Commission on May 29, 2011, the City learned Encore omitted a significant equipment cost of approximately $208,000.00 from its bid. Following Encore’s confirmation they could not fulfill the contract for the bid/contracted price; the City has elected to terminate the agreement for convenience. Approval of the Termination for Convenience agreement with Encore is being submitted as a separate actionable item by commission.

Elimination of Encore Construction as non-responsive has left Beach Construction Company as the next lowest responsive and responsible bidder. The City has verified the contract amount includes all costs for labor, material, equipment and services as specified in the ITB document. Beach Construction has confirmed their bid amount does include the $221,000.00 for the Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs) omitted by Encore; and the $170,000.00 allowance for SCADA Instrumentation and Control equipment as specified.

The overall difference between the initial low bid of Encore and the next low bid of Beach Construction is $9,000.00. There is a $27,000.00 difference on the base bid amount but when adding in the two additives alternates the difference between the bids amounts nets to $9,000.00.
