Tony Cunningham, P.E., Director |

DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
In accordance with Land Development Code section 6.14.2, developers (property owners) are required to connect to public utilities if the property being developed is within connection distance. For a single-family residence, the connection distance is 400 feet from the parcel’s closest corner to the public water main. In this case, the property owner has applied for a building permit on a parcel within the 400’ connection distance of public water main provided by Marion County Utilities (MCU) and is required to install the water main across the parcel’s frontage, ending at the farthest corner.
Following the Board's approval of Agreement WME-072-S on February 5, 2025, the developer responsible for the initial scope of work divested themselves of the parcels by canceling their two building permits and selling the lots. While Brite Properties still possesses one of the designated Benefiting Lots along the route and has secured a permit for a single-family residence thereon, this Amendment is required. The purpose is to remove the obligatory parcels from Section 1, as they are no longer under the ownership or funding responsibility of the stated developer, and transfer them to Section 2's Benefiting Lot category to properly reflect their new obligations as recorded in the Official Records.
BUDGET/IMPACT:
None
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Recommended action
Motion to approve and authorize the Chairman and Clerk to: repeal the originally approved WME-072-S and execute the Amended Water Main Extension Connection Agreement WME-072-S.
