Board recommends transmittal of updated 10-year water supply facilities work plan to City Commission
Summary
The Planning & Zoning Board recommended transmitting the city’s 10‑year water supply facilities work plan update to the City Commission for review and later state agency review; staff said the plan updates population projections, conservation measures and a multi-year capital improvement program.
Lance Lilly, the city's consultant, and staff presented an update to the 10‑year water supply facilities work plan required by state law. The board, acting as the local planning agency, voted to recommend that the City Commission transmit the updated plan for state review.
Lilly summarized that the update incorporates population projections, potable water demand projections, and a capital improvement program that lists upcoming infrastructure projects and priorities. Staff noted the plan follows the South Florida Water Management District's Lower East Coast update and that local governments have an 18‑month window to update plans after the district's update.
Staff identified two corresponding comprehensive plan text amendments and said staff will bring a companion text amendment for concurrent public hearing on May 6. The board voted to recommend transmittal to the City Commission so the city can forward the update to the state and other reviewing agencies.
