AGENDA ITEM: Amendment to Interlocal Agreement Creating Duval Beaches Regional
Sewer Utility dated August 16, 1984
SUBMITTED BY: Robert S. Kosoy, P.E., Director of Public Works
DATE: May 15, 2000
BACKGROUND: The Interlocal Agreement Creating Duval Beaches Regional Sewer Utility
was made in August, 1984 to provide for cost allocations for the effluent outfall line shared by
Jacksonville Beach, Neptune Beach and Atlantic Beach. At the time of the agreement, cost
sharing for capital and maintenance expenses for the outfall line was based on each city's
respective wastewater treatment plant capacity.
Because of changes in treatment plant capacities, it is necessary to revise the Interlocal
Agreement to properly reflect the proper allocation for expenses. The Neptune Beach City
Council recently passed an amendment to Section 6.02 of the Agreement, and approval of the
Atlantic Beach City Commission and Jacksonville Beach City Council will be zieeded to
complete the formal amendment.
BUDGET: There will be a negligible effect on the budget as a result of this amendment.
Atlantic Beach's original pro rata share for expenses for the outfall line was 33.06%. The
revised share will be 33.33%, or an increase of 0.27% of capital and maintenance costs.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve the Amendment to Interlocal Agreement Creating Duval
Beaches Regional Sewer Utility Dated August 16, 1984, as approved by the Neptune Beach City
Council on May 1, 2000, and authorize the Mayor to sign the Amendment.
ATTACHMENTS: 1. Copy of Amendment to Interlocal Agreement Creating Duval
Beaches Regional Sewer Utility Dated August 16, 1984.
2. Copy of Section 6.02 of the original Interlocal Agreement,
showing the original cost allocations.
