tion transitions.

of Congress Avenue. The owners,~or their representatives, of ALL
properties adjacent to said portion of Congress Avenue, intended to
be widened and improved by the County, have been personally con-
tacted by the administration and made acquainted with the tentative
plans of the County for such right-of-way improvement. No definite
objections were received from any property owner, and, it is there-
fore recommended that Council accept the proposed 'Tentative Plans'

Avenue in order that the County Engineering Division may finalize
such right-of-way map, copy of which is on file in the City Clerk's

requirements and such as will allow proper velocities end opera-
tion in conjunction, with the operation of the CITY's Ocean Out-
fall System.
9. The CUSTOMER agrees to pa~ the CITY for diSposal
of its sewage through the. CITY's Ocean Outfgll System a sum to
be determined as follows:
(A) The CUSTOMER recognizes that the CITY pre-
sently owns and operates a sewage disposal system including an
ocean outfall line, and l~]'~e CUSTOMER intends to construct a
force main from its north corporate limit on State Road A1A to
connect with said outfall line to dispose of sewage collected
through the collection and transmission syste~ to be constructed
by the CUSTOMER.. It is understood that the determined share of
the amortized cost of the outfall line already in existence as
related to the CUSTOMER's sewage flow is $180,504.00, and it is
agreed that the interest and amortization cost included in the
above figure shall be borne by the CUSTOMER. It is recited for
informational purposes that the Bonds providing une CITY with the
funds for the completed construction bear interest a~ the rate of
3.6% per annum. It is therefore agreed that there sh~"ald be a
fixed monthly charg~ of $654.00 per month payable b',~ ~he CUSTOMER
for twenty-three (23) years from the date fixed charges and gal-
lonage charges commence as outlined in Paragraph (C) below, as
well as an additional gallonage charge per 1,000 gallons of sew-
age handled from the CUSTOMER. This latter charge shall be varia-
ble as hereinafter 'more particularly described.
(B) The CUSTOMER agrees that the gallonage rate
shall be variable, but initially shall be based on the following
considerations:
h. ~aB~ a~ maintenanee costs .006
-6-
82-L
c. Insurance costs .~03
d. Contingencies and 'miscellaneous, .008
i.e. Increased depreciation on
master lift station and pumps
and controls on Lift Stations
17 and 18.
e. Overhea~, i.e. Accounting,.~015
billing and auditing
Total $0. 035
The monthly gallonage rate schedule shall be as
follows:
0 to 5,000,000 gallons:
$0.0350 per 1,000 gallons.
5,001,000 to 10,000,000 gallons:
$~75.00 + $0.0325 per 1,000 gallons
in excess of 5,000,000 gallons.
10,001,000 to .15,000,000 gallons:
$337.50 + $0.0300 per 1,000 gallons
in excess of 10,000,000 gallons.
Over 15,000,000 gallons:
$487.50 + $0.0275 per 1,000 gallons
in excess of 15,000,000 gallon~.
The CUSTOMER further agrees that in order to guar-
antee such rate schedule, and to 'make this Agreement acceptable
to the CITY, the CITY must receive a guaranteed monthly amount
of money, over and above the fixed charges, which amount shal~l
be referred to as the Minimum Gallonage Charge. It is agreed
that the total Minimum Gallonage Charge shall be the amount of
$100.00 per 'month.
The above Minimum Gallonage Charge shall remain
fixed for the duration of this Agreement, unless altered under
the provisions of Paragraph 16.
At. the initial rate of 3%¢ per thousand gallons,
the Minimum Gallonage Charge will provide the CUSTOMER with a
minimum of 2,857,142 gallons of sewage handled monthly.
-7-
82-M
the provisions of this paragraph, the amount of sewage, handled
by the CITY in exchange for the Minimum Gallonage Charge will be
determined by dividing the Minimum Gallonage Charge by the newly
revised rate.
Over the term of this Contract, it is recognized
that variable costs, as listed above i~'.ldetermining the gallonage
rate schedule, will fluctuate. With the possibility of this
fluctuation in 'mind, the parties hereto agree that, annually, on
the anniversary date of the commencement of the charges, the
monthly gallonage rate schedule shall be increased or decreased
at the same percentage increase or decrease of the latest pub-
lished "Consumer Price Index - U. S. City Average, All Items",
with each rate to be rounded off to the nearest one one-hund-
redth of a cent.
(C) The CUSTOMER agrees that in any event, the
total 'monthly charges due the CITY shall not amount to less than
the sum of $654.00 fixed charges per month and the sum of $100.00
· minimum gallonage charges per ~month, totaling $754.00 monthly
charges for the first twenty-three (23) years following the com-
'mencement of these charges and $100.00 per month thereafter.
Said fixed charges and gallonage charges to the
CUSTOMER shall commence the first day of the calendar 'month fol-
lowing the date the proposed syste~ is put into operation.
10~ The meter readings shall be taken by the CITY on
or before the 30th day of each month. Billing shall be issued
monthly by the CITY and the billings shall become due and pay-
able within fifteen days from the date of billing.
11. The CUSTOMER agrees to pass and enforce an ordi-
nance outlawing the repair and maintenance of septic tanks wit
in its corporate limits and within the feasible collection area
-8-
-'~? I 82-N
within a 30-day period after its collection and disposal system
is operational, and further to enact legislation requiring the
hook-up to its sanitary system within one hundred twenty (120)
days from said date that its system is operational.
12. The CUSTOMER shall have fifteen (15) days (or such
greater time as may be required, if CITY approves) to correct
any proven violation of 'the provisions of this Contract brought
to its attention by a written notification from the CITY sent by
registered or certified mail to the CUSTOMER t~ correct the cause
of the vio!aticrn. If Such violation ce~'~tinues after the expira-
tion of the 15-day grace period, liquidated damages in the amount
of $100.00 per day may be assessed by the CITY against the CUS-
TOMER for each day said violation is known to continue. The ~ .... --
TOMER shall not be liable or pay any damages to the CITY under
this clause for a violation not under their control caused by an
Act of God, fire, strike, casualty, necessary maintenance work,
breakdown of or injuries to machinery, ~;~mps or pipe lines, civil
or military authority, insurrection or riot.
13. The CUSTOMER agrees to hold and save harmless the
CITY for any litigation and/or any damages, includin~ attorneys'
fees and court costs, resulting from the effects of its improper
introduction into the CITY's Sewerage Ocean OUtfall System of
any solid, liquid, gas or other effluent, which ~may cause damage,
either within or without the Sanitary Sewerage Ocean Outfall Sys-
tem, including but not limited to fish kills, undesirable float-
ing matter and explosions.
14. Any temporary cessation of disposal of sewage caused
by an Act of God, fire, strike, casualty, necessary maintenance
work, breakdown of or injuries to machinery, p~mps or pipe lines,
stitute a breach o'f this Agreement on the part of the ~ITY, and
-9-
82-0
the CITY shall not be liable to the CUSTOMER or its inhabitants
for any damage re~ulting from such cessation of disposal. In
