Description
This project includes the design and construction of a subaqueous crossing of New Pass with approximately 2,400
linear feet of 16-inch diameter potable water pipeline. The original proposal was for a 2,000 linear foot 12-inch pipeline;
however, the pipeline was lengthened and rerouted due to permitting issues. The Town of Longboat Key will connect
to the potable water supply system of the City of Sarasota on City Island from Longboat Key's potable water supply
system on the south side of the key. The project will provide the Town with an unspecified amount of back-up potable
water in the event supplies are not available from the Town's current supplier, Manatee County. It was originally
anticipated that the City would supply the Town in emergency situations only, such as if a natural disaster interrupted
supply from Manatee County. However, the Town now envisions that the City will eventually serve as a back-up
supplier in order to meet the Town's peak demands.
Benefits
The project will enable the Town of Longboat Key to receive a reliable supply of potable water in the event supplies are
not available from Manatee County.
Costs
The District's share of the project is expected to be $1,000,000. The Manasota Basin Board originally budgeted
$50,000 toward completion of the project in FY2005, and an additional $200,000 was transferred from the Water
Supply and Resource Development fund for a total contribution of $250,000 in FY2005. The basin board budgeted
$250,000 in FY2006, $250,000 in FY2007, and $250,000 in FY2008. A cost benefit cannot be calculated, since no new
water supplies will be developed as a result of the project.
Additional Information
The total eligible cost of the project is $2,000,000, of which design represents $500,000 and construction represents
$1,500,000. The Town will be solely responsible for the upsizing of 3.5 miles of existing 8, 10, and 12-inch water
mains along Gulf of Mexico Drive, and for the pump system and emergency generator upgrades at the south and
mid-key water stations. This $2,200,000 portion of the project is not eligible for funding.
