Body

 

Staff Recommends: Approval of the attached Resolution.

 

 

Explanation:

Florida Statutes provide for loans to local government agencies to finance the construction of wastewater facilities.

 

Florida Administrative Code rules require authorization to apply for loans, to establish pledged revenues, to designate an authorized representative, to provide assurances of compliance with loan program requirements, and to enter into a loan agreement.

 

The State Revolving Fund (SRF) Loan Program with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) holds hearings in February and August to approve funding for construction funds for the Ocean Outfall Regulatory Compliance Deep Injection Wells (Phase 1) project.

 

The City of Hollywood, Florida, intends to enter into a loan agreement with the Florida DEP under the SRF Loan Program in the amount of $31,960,422.00 including Capitalized Interest and Loan Service Fees.

 

It is necessary to amend the approved FY2019 Water and Sewer Fund (442) operating budget and the approved FY2019-FY2023 Capital Improvement Program to allocate funding in the amount of $31,960,422.00 for the Ocean Outfall Regulatory Compliance Deep Injection Wells (Phase 1) project.

 

The Department of Public Utilities recommends that the City Commission authorize the appropriate City officials to enter into a loan agreement with the Florida DEP under the SRF loan program for project financing in an amount of $31,960,422.00 including Capitalized Interest and Loan Service Fees for the Ocean Outfall Regulatory Compliance Deep Injection Wells, Phase 1 project.
