DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:

On April 19, 2022, the Board approved Mandatory Connection to the Marion County Utilities (MCU) System facilities enacted as Section 19-144 of the Marion County Code of Ordinances (Code), which requires mandatory connections in discrete geographical areas of unincorporated Marion County designated by the Board resolution as “Program Areas”, where grant funding is available to cover the cost of such connection.

 

On October 18, 2022, the Board approved the Short Water Line Extension Program enacted as Sections 19-215 through 19-218 of the Code, which encourages voluntary connection to MCU’s water system within the same Program Areas, where grant funding is available to cover the cost of such connections. 

 

The resolution being presented provides grant funding for connections associated with the Silver Springs Shores Phase 2 Septic to Sewer Conversion project, which is being established as a Program Area that is subject to mandatory connections to the MCU sewer system and voluntary connection to the MCU water system.
