AGENDA ITEM WORDING: Approval of funding from Growth Management Division resources
for an engineering study to determine costs and feasibility of providing a "Lower" Lower Keys
Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant facility to serve Bay Point south to Stock Island.
ITEM BACKGROUND: The Monroe County Comp Plan Work Plan calls for a lower Keys facility to
be in place within the next two years.
PREVIOUS REVELANT BOCC ACTION: The BOCC has already approved moving forward with
such a study to compare costs/feasibility for a new FKAA facility vs. expansion of an existing private
facility. That approval, however, was based upon availability of a ClAP grant to cover the costs of the
study. It appears that that grant will not be forthcoming anytime soon (although it may be granted post-
legislative session), and there is a need to proceed immediately toward completion of this study, due to
pending grant funds. Growth Management's Tim McGarry has indicated that sufficient funds have
been budgeted for wastewater implementation planning activities under the Division's Comprehensive
Plan Implementation Account (#53034) to pay for the study.
