Title
A Resolution Of The City Commission Of The City Of Hollywood, Florida, Authorizing The Appropriate City Officials Enter Into The Attached Service Line Agreement Between The City Of Hollywood And Seminole Tribe Of Florida Granting Permission To The City Of Hollywood To Access The Seminole Okalee Indian Village Located At 3551 And 3681 North State Road 7, Hollywood, Florida, 33024 For The Repair And Maintenance Of The Fire Hydrant And Water Main Which Is Being Constructed And Installed By The Seminole Tribe Of Florida.
Body
Staff Recommends: Approval of the Attached Resolution
Explanation:
The Seminole Tribe of Florida (“Landowner”) installed a fire hydrant on Tribal land, but that hydrant is connected to the City of Hollywood’s (“City”) water main that runs along North State Road 7.
When a private property within the City connects a hydrant to the City’s water main, the private property owner typically provides an easement to allow the City access to the fire hydrant.
This is Tribal land, and instead of providing easements over Tribal land, the Landowner provides Service Line Agreements.
In order for the City to gain access to the Seminole Okalee Indian Village located at 3551 and 3681 North State Road 7 to make repairs and maintenance, the Department of Public Utilities recommends that the City Commission approve entering into the attached Service Line Agreement.
