Roberts County Administrator DATE: December 21,2000 SUBJECT: Request from Florida Keys Aqueduct Authority ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^~^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I am enclosing a communication from the Executive Director of the Florida Keys Aqueduct Authority, who is requesting reimbursement from Monroe County in the amount of $400,139.15. The letter is self-explanatory and indicates that detailed information can be supplied to the Finance Department to support the actual payment. Through this memorandum, I am asking the County Attorney to review the FKAA letter for determination as to whether reimbursement is appropriate under the Resolutions passed by the Board of County Commissioners in reference to supplying funds for wastewater. We shall attempt to schedule this item for discussion and possibly action at the January meeting of the Board of County Commissioners. - :::;--==:?A "- James L.

Wheeler Key West Roger Braun Executive Director December 8, 2000 Mr. James Roberts, County Administrator Public Service Building, Wing #2 5100 College Road Key West, Fl. 33040 Subject: Florida Keys Aqueduct Authority's Required Expenditures Authorized Pursuant to County Resolutions 093-2000 and 232-2000 Dear Mr. Roberts: Reference our previous discussions and communications concerning the above subject, I am officially submitting the following request on behalf of the Board of Directors: "Reimbursement by Monroe County to the Florida Keys Aqueduct Authority per the Authority's required expenditures pursuant to County Resolutions 093-2000 and 232-20000 in the amount of $400,139.15." Attached is a summary and detail listing of the applicable Schedule of Expenditures from March 2000 through November 2000 in the amount of$475,411.82. As noted on the summary, we were able to debit certain Key Largo expenditures ($75,272.67) directly to the EPA General Water Quality Grant ($100,000), reducing the County reimbursement for Key Largo to $400,139.15. Copies of each transaction/payment may be made available to County Finance Department. As previously communicated, FKAA's enabling legislation, Section 9. Powers of the Authority, (9), (i), does not allow for the use of water revenues to pay for wastewater projects. In conjunction with FKAA's wastewater authority and responsibility under their enabling legislation, approved County Wastewater Master Plan, and County Resolutions 093-2000 and 232-2000, FKAA has had to establish a Wastewater Loan in the amount of $850,000/5% interest to meet the initial upfront costs of the current wastewater initiatives. The loan has a due date of March 5, 2001 and the loan amount is completely committed/expended pending reimbursements. $390,000 $430,000 $ 30,000 Little Venice Project Key Largo Project (inclusive of SRF loan escrow) Stock Island Feasibility The continued legal delay in issuing a limited Notice to Proceed reference the Ogden contract for Key Largo, prevents the repayment process from the proposed commercial bridge financing for the Key Largo proposed project. The Authority has had to enter into an additional loan in the amount of$115,835 representing the "local match" funds required for the DCAlFEMA unmet needs projects at Conch Key and Bay Point in order to initiate the "planning and design" per Phase I of our Agreement with DCA concerning these projects. The Authority cannot continue to meet the County's requirements under the Sanitary Wastewater Master Plan and the applicable sections of Chapter 28-20, Land Planning Regulations for the Florida Keys Area of Critical State Concern-Monroe County, without reimbursement from the County for those authorized Key Largo expenses. Should the Ogden contract be allowed to be legally implemented, the Authority is willing to enter into an agreement for reimbursement to the County of the $400,139.15 representing authorized expenses to be project financed. Please note, that none of the authorized expenses requested for reimbursement incorporate any legal fees reference pending litigation and such expenses are not subject to this official request for immediate reimbursement. We look forward to a County Resolution at the 1/17/01 BOCC meeting reference this matter and will provide any additional information to meet your 1/3/01 agenda deadline.

Doughtry ExecutiVe Dir8dCW July 14, 1999 Dear Mr. Wolfe: We are in receipt of your letter dated July 1, 1999 and the attaehed propoaed amendment to the rererencect Memorandum ofUnderatanding (MOU). Tho FKAA will not consider executing this amendment u written. By rescinding the last amendJnent, this proposed amendment sugesta that the County would withdraw its 1.1 miDion dollar gumntee ofUttle Venice up-front costs. Tho PKAA baa already initiated the design process and bu expenclecl funds towards this efFort. FurthermOre, iCthe County is tndy intereste4 in proceeding on its own with site acquisition, design, and CC)JlItIUCtion ofwuteWBta' facilities, it would only need to request approval ftom the PICAA at that time. An~ to the MOU is not neceawy. The FKAA wiD not, at thiI time, agree to take 0VfIl operation, ownership and supervision ofWastewater fadlities developed and CC)DItrUCted by the county, ita col1U'8CtOtl, or agents. To preserve the positive relationship between the respective staffs, the FKAA Board, and the County Coptiuinrwn, we believe open discussiOl1l should occur at statTl~ regarding proposed MOU IIIIIGDdmmrts prior to developing written drafts. We look forward to meetins with you. Ids, P.E. Executive Director J.T. Douptry, Executive Director Tun Roberts, County Administrator Tun McGarrY, Director of Growth Management c.~. --..-
