AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
Meeting Date: January 16, 2013 Division: Growth Management Division
Bulk Item: Yes No X Department: Code Compliance
Staff Contact Person /Phone #:Ronda Norman 289 -2520
AGENDA ITEM WORDING: Discussion and direction on whether to recruit an additional Code
Compliance Officer (budgeted for FY12 -13) to assist in gaining compliance with requirement to
connect to central sewers when systems are available (e.g. Big Coppitt, Key Largo, etc.).
ITEM BACKGROUND: Historically, County Code Compliance assisted with gaining compliance
with Section 20 -51 (a) requiring an owner of land to connect to available central wastewater service.
The Florida Keys Aqueduct Authority (FKAA) and the Key Largo Wastewater Treatment District
(KLWTD) are advising owners of unconnected properties that Code Compliance has been or will be
notified of the failure to connect. Compliance actions taken to date by FKAA and the KLWTD are
summarized in back -up Memorandum from the Wastewater Department.

DISPOSITION: AGENDA ITEM #
381.00655 Connection of existing onsite sewage treatment and disposal systems to central sewerage
system; requirements.
(1)(a) The owner of a properly functioning onsite sewage treatment and disposal system, excluding an
approved onsite graywater system, must connect the system or the building's plumbing to an available
publicly owned or investor -owned sewerage system within 365 days after written notification by the
owner of the publicly owned or investor -owned sewerage system that the system is available for
connection. The publicly owned or investor -owned sewerage system must notify the owner of the onsite
sewage treatment and disposal system of the availability of the central sewerage system. No less than 1
year prior to the date the sewerage system will become available, the publicly owned or investor -owned
sewerage system shall notify the affected owner of the onsite sewage treatment and disposal system of
the anticipated availability of the sewerage system and shall also notify the owner that the owner will be
required to connect to the sewerage system within 1 year of the actual availability. The owner shall have
the option of prepaying the amortized value of required connection charges in equal monthly
installments over a period not to exceed 2 years from the date of the initial notification of anticipated
availability. Nothing in this section shall operate to impair contracts or other binding obligations relating
to payment schedules in existence as of October 1, 1993. Nothing in this paragraph limits the power of a
municipality or county to enforce other laws for the protection of the public health and safety.
(b) The owner of an onsite sewage treatment and disposal system that needs repair or modification to
function in a sanitary manner or to comply with the requirements of ss. 381.0065- 381.4467 or rules
adopted under those sections must connect to an available publicly owned or investor -owned sewerage
system within 94 days after written notification from the department. In hardship cases, upon request
of the owner, the department may approve an extension of not more than 90 days for sewerage
connection. The department may approve only one extension. This paragraph does not authorize the
owner of the onsite sewage treatment and disposal system to create or maintain a sanitary nuisance.
(2) The provisions of subsection (1) or any other provision of law to the contrary notwithstanding:
(a) The local governing body of the jurisdiction in which the owner of the onsite sewage treatment and
disposal system resides may provide that any connection fee charged under this section by an investor -
owned sewerage system may be paid without interest in monthly installments, over a period of time not
to exceed 5 years from the date the sewerage system becomes available if it determines that the owner
has demonstrated a financial hardship. The local governing body shall establish criteria for making this
determination which take into account the owner's net worth, income, and financial needs.
(b) A publicly owned or investor -owned sewerage system may, with the approval of the department
waive the requirement of mandatory onsite sewage disposal connection if it determines that such
connection is not required in the public interest due to public health considerations.
(c) A local government or water and sewer district responsible for the operation of a centralized sewer
system under s. 153.62 may grant a variance to an owner of a performance -based onsite sewage
treatment and disposal system permitted by the department as long as the onsite system is functioning
properly and satisfying the conditions of the operating permit. Nothing in this paragraph shall be
construed to require a local government or water and sewer district to issue a variance under any
circumstance. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed as limiting local government authority to
enact ordinances under s. 4, chapter 99 -395 laws of Florida. A local government or water and sewer
district located in any of the following areas shall not be required to issue a variance under any
circumstance:
1. An area of critical state concern.
2. An area that was designated as an area of critical state concern for at least 20 consecutive years
prior to removal of the designation.
3. An area in the South Florida Water Management District west C -11 basin that discharges through
the S -9 pump into the Everglades.

Sec. 20 -77. Connection to authority facilities; findings.
It is hereby ascertained, determined, and declared that:
(1) The Florida Legislature has identified the Florida Keys as an area of critical state concern;
pollution and questionable water quality resulting from the absence of adequate wastewater
treatment throughout the Florida Keys is a threat to the environment and the health, safety and
welfare of landowners and persons inhabiting the Florida Keys;
(2) The Florida Legislature has charged the authority with the responsibility to plan and provide for
water and sewer systems within the Florida Keys and to enforce the use of its wastewater
facilities whenever and wherever they are accessible;
(3) The Florida Legislature has empowered the authority to both prohibit the use of and mandate
the use of wastewater facilities within the Florida Keys;
(4) The Florida Legislature has authorized the county to enact local legislation that:
a. Requires connection to a central sewerage system within specified time periods; and
b. Provides a definition of on -site sewage treatment and disposal systems that does not
exclude package sewage treatment facilities even if facilities are in full compliance
with all regulatory requirements and treat sewage to advanced wastewater treatment
standards or use effluent reuse as their primary method of effluent disposal;
(5) The authority has embarked upon the creation of a wastewater system to equitably, ecologi-
cally and economically manage wastewater and improve water quality in the Florida Keys. The
presence of the authority's wastewater facilities will enhance and benefit the environment and
the health, safety and general welfare of landowners and persons inhabiting the Florida Keys;
and
(G) Mandatory connection to the authority's wastewater facilities is fundamental to the successful
financing, creation and operation of the authority's wastewater systems, mandatory connec-
tion to a governmental utility system and the subsequent charges flowing therefrom have long
been held to be a proper exercise of the governmental power to regulate and protect the
welfare of the public.
(Code 1979, § 15.5 -29; Ord. No. 017 -2002, § 4)
Sec. 20 -78. Mandatory connection to authority facilities.
(a) The owner of an improved parcel of land or premises shall, at the owner's expense, connect any on -site
sewage treatment and disposal system (including decommissioning any such on -site sewage treat-
ment and disposal system and connection of the collection facilities served thereby to the authority's
wastewater system) and/or a building's plumbing to the authority's wastewater system upon written
notification that the authority's wastewater facilities are available for connection. Connection shall occur
within 30 days of notice of availability of services, or as otherwise provided by law.

Chapter 20 SEWAGE AND SEWAGE DISPOSAL
Sec. 20 -102. Definitions and general rules.
(b) No less than one year prior to the date the authority's wastewater system is expected to become
available, the authority shall be responsible for notifying the affected owners of the anticipated
availability of such wastewater facilities and such owners shall be required to connect, at their expense,
to the authority's wastewater facilities within 30 days of actual availability, or as otherwise may be
provided by law. Failure to timely provide such notice or failure of any individual owner to timely receive
such notice shall not serve as a bar to enforcement of mandatory connection by the authority.
(c) All connections shall be consistent with and governed by the authority's agreement for service
provisions and all other applicable authority rules and regulations relating to water and wastewater and
the provision thereof.
(d) In the event an owner fails or refuses to timely connect the premises, any on -site disposal system
and/or a building to the authority wastewater facilities within the time prescribed herein, or by state
and/or local rules and regulations, the authority may seek and employ any legally available remedy to
cause the installation of the on -site wastewater facilities necessary to effectuate the connection of the
premises to the authority's wastewater system.
(e) In the event the county or the authority is required to seek a writ or order, or otherwise litigate any action
compelling connection, all costs of such action experienced by the county and/or the authority,
including attorney fees and court costs, may be assessed to the owner.
(Code 1979, § 15.5 -30; Ord. No. 017 -2002, § 5)
Sec. 20 -79. Areas where effective.
Notwithstanding any provision herein or in this Code to the contrary, the provisions of this article shall be

ARTICLE V. WASTEWATER CONNECTION STANDARDS
Sec. 20 -102. Definitions and general rules.
(a) Definitions. The following words, terms and phrases, when used in this article, shall have the meanings
ascribed to them in this subsection, except where the context clearly indicates a different meaning:
Compatible system means a vacuum system (or other collection system provided by the utility within the
public right -of -way), or a sewage force main, if the utility has a force main with adequate capacity. Note larger
concentrated flows may require connection to a utility - provided force main within the public right -of -way.
Connection means the point where an individual or multiple EDUs are connected to the utility's central
collection system and may be by gravity, pressure, or vacuum.
Equivalent dwelling unit (EDU), for purposes of this division, one EDU is assumed to generate a sewage flow
of 167 gallons per day, and a recreational vehicle (RV) unit is assumed to generate a sewage flow of 75 gallons
per day. One EDU is equivalent to one equivalent residential connection (ERC) as defined by some utilities.
Infiltration and inflow ( / &/) means the introduction of stormwater run -off, groundwater or other sources of
uncontaminated water into a sanitary sewer system. The introduction of I &I is prohibited by FA.C. ch. 62. All
sewer collection systems shall be demonstrated to be free of I &I using one of the test methods cited under the
definition of industry and utility standard or by an alternative test method approved by the utility's engineer.

Monroe County
Completed Tasks for 2012
Monroe County completed 19 out of the 28 tasks targeted for completion (68 %). The County
participated in the Hurricane Evacuation Workshops, executed the Memorandum of
Understanding and adopted a comprehensive plan amendment to discourage increases in density
on the Future Land Use Maps.
The Monroe County Land Authority purchased 73 Tier I lots and four Tier II lots. Four
applications for Administrative Relief were reviewed for applicants that had waited four years to
receive a building permit allocation. All four applicants rejected offers for purchase and were
awarded building permit allocations. The Monroe County Land Authority applied to the U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers for land acquisition grants and received $67,000.

s .-
With regard to the provision of
wastewater, the County has
connected 80% of the potential
connections at Big Coppitt and 72%
of the possible connections at Hawks
C ay. The Ivey Largo Wastewater
Facility increased the number of
EDU connections from 7,859 to
11,525. The total connections
represent 56% of those targeted for
completion within unincorporated
Monroe County. Since last year's
annual report, the EDU connections
increased by 26 %.
The County requested wastewater financing under the Save Our Everglades Program and was
awarded $30 million for the construction of the Cudjoe Wastewater Facility. This facility will
serve Big Pine Key to Lower Sugarloaf Ivey. The County must execute a contract for the
expenditure of the funds by March 2013 to maintain the funding. In November 2012, the County
held a referendum which extended the local Infrastructure Sales Tax to generate additional
funding for the construction of the Cudjoe Facility. The Cudjoe Facility is divided into two
service areas, referred to as inner and outer service areas. The plant has been designed and bids
for construction were awarded in November 2012 and contracts will be awarded in December
2012.

Key Largo Wastewater Treatment Plant
Incomplete Tasks for 2012
Two tasks that were not completed by the County
due to funding constraints pertain to the Cudjoe
Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant. The design
of the inner collection and transmission system and
the design of the outer collection and transmission
system were not achieved during the evaluation
period. Instead, the County focused efforts on
obtaining the approval of bond financing through the
Save Our Everglades Program. The Florida
Legislature approved $30 million in bond financing
in 2012 to facilitate construction of the Cudjoe
1. Facility with a connection fee that is commensurate
with that charged countywide. As previously stated
f 4 V
'G in November, the voters in the County approved a
referendum to extend the infrastructure sales tax to
- y further supplement the funding for Cudjoe and other
County capital improvements. The County, through
its statutory partner, the Florida Keys Aqueduct
Authority, has requested bids for the construction of
Bikers on Florida Keys Overseas Heritage Trait the Cudjoe plant and design of the outer collection
system with bid opening scheduled for award on December 19, 2012. Requests for proposals for
the design of the Cudjoe collection system for the inner islands and bids for the construction of
the treatment plant were opened in November 2012. These actions demonstrate continuing
progress although the tasks were not achieved during the report period.
The County did not formally apply for grant funding for wastewater as required by the Work
Program. Inquiries were made to the Florida Keys Water Quality Improvement Program without
success. The County did not include funding for stormwater improvements in the last Capital
Improvements Element.
Additionally, the County did not submit a plan amendment adopting goals, objectives, and
policies for Goal 106 (Tier System). The specific Work Program task addressing this item
contains the following:
• update habitat maps at periodic intervals to evaluate the tier overlay system;
• the creation of a tier review committee;
• evaluation of the updated tier maps concurrent with the evaluation of the
comprehensive plan; and
• adoption of the tier overlay maps into the comprehensive plan.
While the County did not submit the plan amendment regarding the updated habitat maps, a Tier
review committee was convened in 2011 to review the unadopted habitat maps, and the County

Date: August 20, 2012
Re: Connection Report
Key Largo
Wastewater
Treatment
District
Please see attached report.
Ten properties in Basin A -1 were turned over to the Monroe County
Code Compliance Department last month. On the average we are
getting a good response from the people who did not connect two years
ago. About 50 grant applications have been given out between Basins
A& B.
will complete the notification process in Basins A & B in a month. After
turn the ones who have not connected over to Code Compliance I will
then start the process with Basin C. i
