Full report
Apopka City Commission has approved a Clean Water State Revolving Fund loan agreement for planning, design and construction, adding state-backed financing to its wastewater capital-delivery programme.
The agreement, identified as WW4082D0, was among three consent items approved unanimously at the commission’s 21 October meeting. The initial award is $500,000 for planning, fully forgiven; the total loan amount is $19,166,503, all of it subject to principal forgiveness, toward a project estimated at $25 million to bring the West Plant into compliance.
The same consent package authorised the mayor to execute Amendment No. 1 to Florida Department of Environmental Protection grant agreement INV58 for Apopka’s Performance Phosphorous Removal Demonstration project. The amendment covers revised special terms and conditions, work-plan and programme-specific requirements.
Commissioners also authorised a set of piggyback contracts that can support utility operations and repair work. The approved arrangements include Core and Main for water collection and control products, Ferguson Waterworks for utility-operations inventory parts, and Nu-Pipe for slip lining of gravity sewer and storm-drain lines.
Other approved utility-related suppliers include Sewer Equipment Co. of America for sewer vacuum, hydro-excavation and municipal pumping equipment, along with RMS Constructors Group for infrastructure repair and replacement. The contract authorisations also cover generator maintenance services and equipment procurement through Florida Sheriffs Association awarded vendors.
Together, the actions give the city an SRF financing agreement for clean-water planning, design and construction while retaining procurement routes for collection-system, storm-drain and pumping-equipment needs. The commission approved all three consent agenda items without pulling any for separate discussion.
