Electric Utility City Commission Meeting

Commission meeting on Tuesday, July 30 on the Electrical Utility

Several items of interest are on the Consent Agenda:
  • For years and back in the Becky Mattey days when she was our Utility Director (she gave notice in 2011), we have been talking about and all concur, that Lake Worth needs a 2nd tie-land. Back at the end of 2018, the city commission agreed. An RFP was generated and the Wantman Group was chosen to do the survey. According to the city, the preferred option is to follow the same path as the existing tie-line, Hypoluxo to the Main Tie-Line. Design services will be done by Subsurface Utility engineering Services at a cost not to exceed $89,650.
  • Power Engineers will provide engineering services design concept for the new underground 138kv tie-line, cost not to exceed $551,278.
  • FMPA is requesting an additional $80,000 for call services for 4 months, June through September. We exited FMPA at the end of 2013 but we are still a part of the contract with them that gives us Call Center Support Services. Also, our Solar Power Sales Contract with FMPA deliveries begin June 2020. I'm assuming that's still in effect.
  • There will be an update on the 3rd quarter as well as discussion on Resolution 34-2012 Net Metering.
