6) DISCUSS of DANIEL CULINARY WATER SERVICE:
Ryan Taylor presented an expansion plan for culinary water to service the Charleston area from 3000 South to 2400 South, Sr 189 to the canal. Charleston would like to develop the area as a commercial zone and are asking Daniel to provide culinary services. The current volume is adequate for 575 connections with 400 ERU’s (equivalent residential units) for the current service area, the existing storage could provide an additional 175 additional ERU’s.
Council member Glodowski inquired about a location for another storage tank and Mr. Taylor indicated that in the master plan there is need of one in the Storm Haven area and this expansion could help to build a new tank. Mr. Taylor stated that cost at this time would be fairly low and would roughly cost about $.15 per thousand gallons. This would increase the chlorine cost by an estimated $1500 per year, in which the town would need to meter, bill, and service additional connections. He stated that it is assumed that the Town would need to hire at least 1 full-time employee at an estimated $75,00 per year.
Actual monthly bills are calculated by meter size and water usage which could vary and are unknown at this time. It is assumed that 100 connections with a minimum water bill would generate income from $42,000 per year to $84,000 per year. He also stated that the 100 ERU’s would contribute $1.1 million dollars in impact fees which could help contribute to increase and build water lines and storage describe per the master plan.
Mayor Turner asked if there were any comments from council. Council member Duggin stated that this was part of the expansion plan were in the original plan to rebuild Daniel Municipal Water, but we did not have the funds to complete the entire plan. She feels that it would be great to up the professional level and service of the system. The only downfall she sees is that the Planning Commission had some comments that were not very supportive. Mr. Taylor stated that at the time of Planning, the numbers were not available to present, however since having the opportunity to put together the memo and seeing potential numbers, Mr. Taylor feels it could be a good move. Council member Duggin thanked Mr. Taylor for putting together the numbers and hopes that once the Planning Commission has a chance to review this, they may change their minds.
Mayor Turner asked council for a direction they would like to take. Mr. Taylor indicated that Charleston is waiting on Daniel for a tentative answer. Council member Bunker stated that this is information that they did not have the last time it was presented. Council member Duggin made the request to send to Planning Commission for review. She also suggested to have a show and tell to discuss and see the water system. She stated that the old facilities are still there and could see the new system, as well as potential new systems. Mayor Turner, Council members Grady and Glodowski felt this was a great idea and would like to see it.
