Infrastructure notes: water/sewer capacity and ERP updates required before subdivision or new development
Summary
Exhibit materials show existing 10" and 8" water mains along US‑27, gravity sewer feeding a lift station sized for a peak of 269 GPD (upgrade required if exceeded), and state permitting (SFWMD ERP) and FDOT coordination needed for access and improvements; packet recommends permit modifications before subdivision or development proceeds.
The rezoning exhibits outline essential utilities and permit steps for developing the Glades County Business Park. The packet identifies existing 10‑inch and 8‑inch water mains along US‑27 and gravity sewer service on site that ties to a lift station with a stated peak capacity of 269 GPD; materials note the lift station must be upgraded if proposed development exceeds that capacity.
The exhibits also explain that an Environmental Resource Permit (ERP) previously issued by the South Florida Water Management District will need to be modified or updated for new subdivision and development; the master stormwater system was completed and certified in 2015 but the prior ERP appears to have technically expired and will be evaluated under current site conditions. FDOT improvements to the US‑27/SR‑78 intersection and prior use of Industrial Drive for construction traffic are documented; final access and any turn‑lane requirements will be evaluated during permitting and site‑plan review.
The packet notes that turn lane improvements and specific access details will be evaluated later in the permitting process and that the development must meet federal, state and local stormwater standards.
