DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
The Marion County School Board constructed a new 12-inch water main, extending approximately 440 linear feet from the existing water main located at or near the intersection of SW 66th Avenue Road and Marion Oaks Manor.

The County agrees to reimburse the School Board for 50% of the total cost of the project. Upon completion, the School Board conveys ownership of the water main to the County at no cost, exclusive of the oversizing expense.
