BACKGROUND:The Neighborhoods Department,Parks Division is proceeding with the
planned repair and resurfacing of the tennis courts and basketball court at Jack Russell Park.Funding for
this project was approved as part of the Fiscal Year 2025-26 budget.The existing courts are uneven,
cracked,and exhibiting surface coating failure due to normal wear and weather exposure.Resurfacing
the courts will prolong their service life and help ensure they remain safe,playable,and durable for public
use.The project scope includes sanding and cleaning the existing surfaces,?lling and repairing cracks,
leveling uneven areas,and applying new textured coatings and ?nishes.
As Jack Russell Park contains all but one of the City’s tennis courts,maintaining these facilities is a
priority to ensure public safety and continued accessibility and enjoyment for residents.The proposed
project includes the repair and resurfacing of the tennis courts and the large basketball court located
within the park.
The City intends to contract with Court Surfaces through a cooperative purchasing agreement established
by Lake County,Florida (Contract No.22-721),which provides competitively priced services.Staff
recommends awarding the contract to Court Surfaces for a total project cost of $69,100.This cost includes
the repair and resurfacing of both the tennis courts and the large basketball court.
BUDGET:The budget for this project is available in the parks maintenance account
001-6020-572—34-00in the amount of $69,100.

AGENDA ITEM: Resolution No . 26-13 authorizing the funds for continued work on the Inflow
& Infiltration of the City 's sewer collections system
SUBMITTED BY: Troy Stephens, Public Utilities Director
TODAY'S DATE: January 6, 2026
MEETING DATE: January 26, 2026
BACKGROUND: The Public Utilities Department is working to reduce the inflow and
infiltration into the City 's aging sewer system. Stormwater runoff and groundwater are entering the sewer
system through cracks , broken laterals and offset pipe joints and this is resulting in higher flows and
unnecessary treatment at the wastewater treatment plant.
The City contracted with USSI, LLC to provide inflow and infiltration (I & I) inspection services to assess
the condition of the sewer collections system. The latest report involves the Saratoga Circle service area,
and the findings identified the areas where sto rm water is entering the sewer system. Out of the 141 manholes
inspected , 123 issues were identified. Corrections involve placing a protective sealant inside the chimney
of the manhole and installing an inflow defender dish to prevent stormwater intrusion into the wastewater
collections system.
A report of the findings was sent to the utilities department, along with an estimate , dated October 2025 ,
for protective sealing in the manhole chimneys and to install rain guards around the affected manholes in
the amount of $50 ,960.00.
BUDGET: Adequate funds are available in the Public Utilities Fund Account
No. 410-5506-535-6300. Project No. PU2505.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve the agreement with USSI, LLC for Saratoga Circle lift station
service area repairs in the amount of $50 ,960.00 and authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement
and associated purchase order.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
USSI LLC. was contracted by the City of Atlantic Beach to do sewer investigations for several lift station areas in
the City. USSI was hired to provide a full I&I Study for a Sewer System Evaluation Survey (SSES). The goal of the
investigation was to determine if inflow and infiltration is present in the upstream gravity sys tem of each lift station.
There were 2 area(s) investigated in FY 2025. A summary of the findings is as follows.
• 141 manholes plus 2 lift stations were noted
• Of the 141 manholes , all but O were found , inspected and GPSed .
• Most of the manholes are Precast
• Most of the chimneys are Brick
• 2 rings and covers need to be repaired/replaced immediately
• 11 rings and covers need to be raised
• 0 have a dish = most HOPE but not necessarily Defenders
• 3 manholes have root issues .
• 14 manholes showed some degree of corrosion as a result of hydrogen sulfide.
• Smoke testing revealed 28 openings in the areas that smoked and O were repaired with LDL plugs

Introduction
Sanitary sewer lines serve a vital role in the health and safety of the public. Wastewater from the City of Atlantic
Beach is transmitted through a series of gravity line s, lift stations and force mains that are designed to convey
wastewater from homes and businesses to the wastewater treatment plant. Pipelines in the City were constructed
starting in the l 960s and continued into the 1990s, and even today. The o ld er pipe was vitrified clay that has the
potential to crack and leak. Joints are especially susceptible to this kind of damage . Newer pipe appears to be either
SDR35 PVC (1980s and potentially problematic due to thin walls and challenging connections) or C900 PVC (1990s
to date). No truss pipe was noted.
Manholes and clean-outs are required for access and removal of material that may build up in the piping system.
Manholes are used where there are changes in direction and/or size of the sewer pipe. They also serve as access sites
for workers to perform maintenance or cleaning. Manholes are traditionally pre-cast concrete or bri ck. Brick was the
method of choice until the late 1960s. In addition, the manhole cover may not sea l perfectly, becoming another source
of infiltration during a rain event or even from normal irrigation runoff. The newer manholes are all precast concrete.
Substantial savings in operations can be achieved by reducing the amount of wastewater that must be pumped and
treated. Utilities have long dealt with the infiltration and inflow (I and I or InI) issues in their system by televising
their pipes and identifying leak points , but this primaril y addresses only the infiltration part of "I and I". Inflow , which
creates hydraulic issues during rain events, leads to sanitary sewer overflows and can su bject the utility to fines from
regulatory agencies, and create publicity and legal issues when houses are damages from sewage backing up into
houses and businesses. Inflow cannot be detected by television cameras. As a result, dealing with the inflow portion
ofl and I requires different means. Fortunately, the efforts to find an d correct inflow are low cost and very basic
which often leads to a more focused plan for infiltration correction program.
Where there are peaks in wastewater flows that match rainfall , inflow would appear to be a more lik ely candidate for
the cause of the peaks than infiltration from pipes that are constantly under the water table (see Figure 1). The
peaking that correlates with the rainfall is inflow, not infiltration since infiltration is part of the base flow that creeps
upward with time. Infiltration looks much lik e the base flow but may vary with groundwater levels. The amount of
inflow can be calculated (see Figure 2). Since it is assumed that fluctuations in baseflow were negligible, any changes
between baseflow+infiltration were assumed to be a result of fluctuations in infiltration (see Figure 3).

As of July I , 2020, there was a law that went effect in Florida that impacts utilities . The statute deals with many
things: blue green a lgae; regulation of septic tanks (a problem throughout the state); and sanitary sewer
overflows, and increases fines to overflows (SB7 l 2/HB 1343). The latter makes utilitie s notice . Basically, the
bill is a re s ult of sanitary sewer overflows that flooded parts of Pinellas and Hillsborough Counties several
years ago. Uti liti es must now report of efforts to reduce infiltration , inflow and the potential for overflows
(SSO's). The bill does set up funds to help with the issue , but it also increases the penalties to utilities for
sanitary sewer overflows from inflow. The City of Atlantic Beach is responsible for the planning, construction
and maintenance of its lift stations and coll ection systems. Maintenance and repair of the sewer force main
piping and gravity collection sys tem includes excavation and repair of manholes , gravity piping , service
connections and force mains . Age, pipe type , roadway conditions and other factors compromise sewer system
capacity by creating the potential for infiltration and inflow into the sewer system and increasing the potential
for overflows. Ongoing infiltration and inflow detection and elimination efforts are required to minimize excess
water moving into the system since the total flows through the pipes directly translate s to increased pumping
and treatment costs . Unfortunately, because these pipelines are out of sight, funding to address potential repair
and replacement needs can be challenging.

The City contracted with USSI , LLC., to provide l&l services to assess the condition of the piping in Lift
station areas LS-E and LS-L; a total of 2 areas .
The inflow reduction program consists of the following:
• Inspection of all sanitary sewer manholes for damage , leakage, or other problems
• GIS mapping of manholes and problem areas
• Repair/sealing of chimneys in all manholes to reduce infiltration from the street during flooding
events
• Installation of LDL(R) plugs where manholes in the public right-of-way or other portion of the
utilitya€™s system may be damaged
• Smoke testing of sanitary sewer system
• Identification of sewer system leaks , including those on private property (via location of smoke on
private property)
• Low flow inspection event (Midnight Run)
• Determine if flow is significant Documentation of all problems in a report to utility that identifies
problem , location and recommended repair
The first step was inspection of all sanitary sewer manholes for damage , leakage or other problems ,
which while seeming obvious , is often not performed . The manhole inspection documented condition ,
GPS location , ties to photographic data and some form of numbering if not currently available . Points
that smoke during smoke testing are likewise photographed and GPS documented. LDL plugs are placed
in cleanouts on public property .
Two items normally done as a part of the process were not accomplished:
• Repair of manhole walls in poor condition or exhibiting substantial leakage
• Installation of dishes in all manholes to prevent infiltration (riser prevent this)
The midnight run wa s performed under the supervision of a crew chief that has ample experience with
this study (minimum 5 years experience with USSI). The goal of the midnight run is to identify where
there is flow that should not exist. If flow is present under conditions where there should be no flow ,
consecuti ve manholes upstream are opened to determine where flow is initiated. Generally, a 2 inch wide
bead of water is a limit of "significant" infiltration. No flow conditions are normally night-time since
infiltration cannot be separated from ba se flow when assessing average daily flows .

Night Flow Investigation I&I
USSI was asked to conduct a midnight run for LS-E and LS-L areas. The goal of the investigation was to determine if
inflow and infiltration is present in the upstream gravity system of each lift station. The work was undertaken during
dry, no rain conditions at night (generally from 12am -Sam).
The procedure utilized for the investigation is as follows:
l. Review the manholes on the lift station area map
2 . Determine a starting manhole that is upstream of the lift station, but downstream of other manholes. The goal is
to pick a point where finding no flow eliminates opening many manholes.
3. Open manholes. If there is a 2 inch wide bead of water that is not wastewater and not intermittent, proceed
upstream opening consecutive manholes until the bead disappears.
4 . Identify the amount of flow in manholes by manhole number.
5. Note any change in flow by manholes (bead width, color, minerals , speed of flow)
6. Note any manhole defects (this is not the intent of the process but useful)
7 . Estimate the flow by manhole
8. Identify which pipes should be televised
9 . Write report and estimate total infiltration flow volume
Flow volume is based on the discharge formula for partially full open channels of circular shape:
Manning's equation is an empirical formula commonly used to estimate the volumetric flow rate (discharge) of water
in open channels such as rivers , streams , and culverts. It is widely used in hydraulic engineering.
Discharge Equation (in SI units):
Where:
Q = Discharge (flow rate), in cubic feet per second
A = Cross-sectional area of flow , in square feet
n = Manning's roughness coefficient (dimensionless)
Rh = Hydraulic radius which is equal to A/P where
P = wetted perimeter, in feet
S = Slope of the energy grade line (offten the slope of the channel
bottom), dimensionless
KEY CONCEPTS:
Hydraulic Radius:
Measures how efficiently a channel conveys
flow; it is the ratio of area to wetted perimeter.
Roughness Coefficient
Depends on the channel material (e.g.
concrete, gravel. vegetation).
Channel Slope:
Influences the driving force of the flow.
For a partially full pipe, the area and wetted perimeter are found by taking half the width of the bead of flow as T/2
A=d 2(20-sin(2))/8
where:
d = diameter of the pipe, in feet
0 = radians from the angle as follows :
P=0d
Flow is adjusted based on the speed of the pipe at the judgment of the engineer. Slope for 8" pipe is assumed to be
0.4 %.
Pipes with flow increases from the previous manhole of 2" or greater are candidates for closer inspection (CCTV).

January 26 , 2026
BACKGROUND: The City of Atlantic Beach (COAB) currently operates police radio
communications through the City of Jacksonville (COJ) P25 radio system. The COAB owns the 800 MHz
radios and relies on the COJ for repeaters and other infrastructure to operate the radio system.
The majority of the radios used by the COAB are within the Police Department and are relied on daily
for communications. Other departments within the city have 800 MHz radios which function on the City
of Jacksonville P25 radio system and are available to them in an emergency situation. The COJ radio
system provides the Police Department with inter-operability with other law enforcement agencies in the
area which is paramount to public safety during critical incidents .
Periodically the COJ and the COAB enter into a Radio Services Agreement which sets the terms and rate
for a specified time frame. The current agreement was originally entered into in October 2021 and the
first amendment was entered into in February 2023.
Retroacti vely , commencing on October 1, 2025 , the City of Atlantic Beach is required to pay a fixed
monthly fee of $34.40 per unit for the services set forth in this Agreement. This fixed monthly fee includes
the allocated costs for P25 system expenses and maintenance, Radio Shop services and support, and JEA
tower leases and services.
BUDGET: The approximate annual cost for this radio service 1s $45 ,000. This
expenditure is in the Fiscal Yeaer 2025-26 Police Department budget.

BACKGROUND: The City of Atlantic Beach Code of Ordinances currently contains fees and
charges that are di sper sed across multiple chapters and section s. This structure has resulted in
administrative inefficiencies and ha s made it more difficult for staff and the public to easily locate and
understand applicable fees.
To impro ve clarity, transparency , and efficiency, the City seeks to relocate existing fees from variou s
sect ion s of the Code into a s ingle, centralized location within Chapter 2 as those section s are amended
and updated . This approach will pro vi de a consistent and streamlined framework for future fee
adjustments.
Additionally, severa l ex isting fee schedules ha ve not been updated for an extended period. Specifically,
the fees and charges related to public record s contained in Section 2-368 have not been adjusted s ince
2002. Staff des ire s to update these fees to the maximum amounts authorized under Florida Statutes
Chapter 119 to e nsure compliance with state law and to better recover associated administrative costs.
The Building Divi s ion fee schedule was la st updated in 2009. O ver time, the cost of providing building
permit reviews , in spections, re-in spection s, and administrative serv ices ha s increased. The current fee
structure is no longer s ufficient to fully cover the costs associated with the se essential function s.
Staff presented thi s ordinance for di sc uss ion at the January 12 Commission meeting ; however, no
comments or feedback were received from the Commission at that time.
Thi s ordinance does not require a bu siness impact state ment.
