<br /> The Water & Sewer section also includes two (2) new projects in Years 1 and 2 that were not
<br /> part of the FY 2013-18 CIP. These projects include the following:
<br /> Economic Development Infrastructure — this project reflects the FY 2013-14 funding of
<br /> infrastructure for the Morinaga Company, which consists of design for the extension of water,
<br /> sewer and roadway infrastructure to the site from surrounding existing utility system and
<br /> construction of the water and sewer extension. This project is funded by $250,000 from Article
<br /> 46 Sales Tax proceeds, and $750,000 in CDBG funds. This new project also includes $50,000
<br /> in Year 1 for EDD zones right-of-way-accesses, and $50,000 in Year 1 for public-private
<br /> participation in EDD zones and rural broadband related access.
<br /> Economic Development Utility Extension Project(s) — provides funds of $250,000 in Years 1 and
<br /> 2 for future economic development projects that are currently being considered, but have not
<br /> been finalized. If no project develops in the coming year, which requires utility extension, the
<br /> funds would be available for future years as needed.
<br /> Solid Waste:
<br /> Sanitation - includes funds of $2,428,283 in Year 1 (FY 2014-15) for Solid Waste Convenience
<br /> Center (SWCC) improvements at the Eubanks Road site (the cost has increased by
<br /> approximately $1.1 million from the current FY 2013-18 CIP due to the movement of the scale
<br /> house operations and associated site improvements, extending water and sewer to the site,
<br /> additional stormwater structures, purchase of two additional stationary compactors, and a larger
<br /> household hazardous waste building). Year 1 also includes $206,944 for the replacement of a
<br /> Hook Lift truck; Year 2 includes $495,000 for SWCC improvements at the High Rock Road site;
<br /> and Year 3 includes $340,000 for SWCC improvements at the Ferguson Road site. Years 6-10
<br /> includes $212,028 for SWCC improvements at the Bradshaw Quarry site.
<br /> Recycling Operations — the current FY 2013-14 includes the purchase of 2 rural curbside trucks
<br /> and the purchase of 19,500 urban recycling carts, at a total cost of $1,602,139. Year 1 (FY
<br /> 2014-15) provides for the purchase of 7,000 rural carts, as well as the replacement of two
<br /> trucks. Year 2 (FY 2015-16) provides for the purchase of 2,000 additional rural carts.
<br /> Note: the Solid Waste Management Department has instituted a re-build program for its heavy
<br /> pieces of equipment (not trucks) rather than being replaced. Re-building, or overhauling, is
<br /> significantly less expensive than replacing with new equipment, thereby extending its life and
<br /> reducing costs. Results of this re-build program are reflected in reduced equipment costs
<br /> shown in the CIP, when compared to the current CIP.
<br /> SportsPlex— includes funding in Year 1 (FY 2014-15) for a Mezzanine addition at the pool area
<br /> to include dedicated member change areas and lockers, workout rooms, and a senior/adult
<br /> cardio strength center. Year 2 (FY 2015-16) includes funding of $1,900,000 for a new building
<br /> addition that would house an indoor turfed field for soccer, lacrosse, senior walking, running,
<br /> Kidsplex functions, and youth/adult flag football leagues. A second new building addition
<br /> includes funding of $900,000 also in Year 2 for a second new building addition that would
<br /> house a regulation sized high school/college basketball court, including bleacher seating, for
<br /> youth and adult basketball leagues, court based fitness programs, volleyball, and Kidsplex
<br /> activities. Projected revenue from these new projects would generate enough funds to cover
<br /> the additional annual debt service needed for these projects.
