The 2014 project proposes to retrofit and rebate up to 60 toilets through an outside contracted consultant.Depending on the program's success, The Public Works Department may continue the program for additional years. The District's 50 percent share will come from the Basin Board's CFI. The City of New Port Richey's share is $7,470. In a 2005 public opinion survey conducted by Tampa Bay Water, about 60 percent of residents surveyed indicated they would be willing to participate in a rebate program of low-flow toilets. The City currently provides utility costomers with low-flow shower heads and toilet flappers and will continue to do so. More than 6,000 shower heads and flappers have been distributed in the past 6 years. The ULV Toilet Rebate program will be part of the City's overall 5-year Water Conservation Plan. High citizen demand for such a program has been developing in recent years. The HET models are relatively new to the plumbing industry and the EPA recently completed a list of standards to help consumers select properly performong models. The City understands it must ensure the HET models associated with this project will meet EPA standards in order to be eligible for District funding for this project. Describe your organizations efforts in developing, implementing and enforcing water conservation and flood protection ordinances. The City of New Port Richey adopted Ordinance 1936 to protect water resources and the local water supplies of the City from inefficient use at all times and overutilization during periods of water shortage by assisting the Southwest Water Management District in the implementation of its year-round water conservation measures and water shortage plan. Every police officer and deputy sheriff having juristiction in the area governed by this article shall diligently enforce the provisions of this article. In addition, the City Manager may also delegate enforcement responsibility for this article to agencies and departments of the City of New Port Richey government, in accordance with state and local law. Violations of this article shall be subject to penalties of $155.00 for first violation, $310.00 for the second violation and a fine not to exceed $500.00 and/or imprisonment in the local jail, not to exceed 30 days. The city council has also determined that the use of reclaimed water is necessary and in the best interests of the city and the city's utility service area. During FY 2012, 100% of the City's wastewater was reused. The City charges a flat rate of $12.34 per month to reclaimed water users. The City of New P_ort Richey participates in the National Flood Insurance Program administered through FEMA. All finished floor elevations are required to be above the 100 year flood elevation.
