Directors Eric Baze and Joe Hollarn were administered the Oath of Office for a three-year term beginning February 2024 through February 2027. The Board also conducted nominations and elections of JCSUD Board Officers, with Glen Walden elected as President, Gene Petross as Vice President, and Ronnie Nichols as Secretary/Treasurer. The newly elected officers will serve one-year terms.
The Board of Directors awarded American Heavy Construction the CR 409 8-inch waterline replacement contract. This project includes replacing 6,400 LF of a 3-inch waterline with an 8-inch C900 (DR-18) along CR-409. The contract time for this project is one hundred twenty (120) working days or approximately seven months. The project was bid on January 9, 2024, and there were seventeen bids, which ranged from $605,462.50 to $1,602,500. The lowest bid was submitted by American Heavy Construction. This project will be funded from the District’s 2024 Capital Improvement Projects budget.
The Board of Directors approved the JCSUD General Manager to execute the Skyline Drive Landowner Association transfer documents. On September 18, 2023, the Public Utility Commission (PUC) issued Order No. 12, approving the Sale/Transfer/Merger Agreement between Skyline Drive LOA and JCSUD, contingent upon executing the transactional documents between the parties. The District staff prepared and worked with the legal counsel on the transactional documents, including the Transfer Agreement, Bill of Sale, and Transfer of Easement Agreement. Once the documents are executed, the District will submit them to the PUC for final approval and begin working with the property owners within Skyline Drive LOA to complete a service application. The District will file monthly updates with the PUC regarding the waterline construction project, and the PUC will finalize the Sale/Merger/Transfer upon completion of the project.
The Board of Directors provided JCSUD staff to issue development Reimbursement Agreements until the Impact Fee Study is revised to include the needed infrastructure within Pressure Planes 13, 8, 24, and 1. Staff will work on communication pieces with more information for the development community, to include in-person workshops.
The Board of Directors recognized JCSUD employee Kellie Cook with her Employee Appreciation Pin for her three years of service with the District.
