Item C25BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY Meeting Date: February 20, 2013 Division: Public Works & Engineering _ Bulk Item: Yes X No _ Department: Wastewater Staff Contact Person/Phone -#:Wilson (453-8797) AGENDA ITEM WORDING: Approval for the County Administrator or his designee to execute the State Revolving fund application for the Cudjoe regional system.. ITEM BACKGROUND: FDEP has advised that it has received all documentation required for an allocation of State Revolving Fund loans at its February 18, 2013 priority list hearing. They have advised that an allocation of as much as $40 million may be available for the Cudjoe regional project. Once a project is placed on the priority funding list, there are two remaining steps, completion of an application and execution of a loan agreement (contract). The application can't be submitted until after the allocation bearing. The time between the FDEP hearing and the BOCC meeting date (2 days), makes preparation of the application before the February BOCC meeting unlikely. Rather than wait until the .March meeting, staff proposes to submit the application over the Administrator's signature and have the BOCC approve the final loan agreement. Submission of the application does not bind the County to the loan, the loan agreement does. PREVIOUS RELEVANT BOCC ACTION: On 25 January 2006, the BOCC approved applying for funding from the State Revolving Loan Fund for construction in accordance with the Monroe County Sanitary Wastewater Master Plan.
