EFFECTIVE DATE.
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION
The Administration recommends that the City Commission adopt the proposed

BACKGROUND
At the May 12, 2010 meeting, the City Commission referred to the Planning Board for its
review and recommendation, the proposed 10 -year Water Supply Facilities Work Plan
as well as the ordinance that amends several elements of the City's Comprehensive
Plan to strengthen coordination between water supply and local land use planning as
required by Florida Statutes.
ANALYSIS
On June 24, 2005, Senate Bill 360, which later became known as the Growth
Management Act of 2005, was signed by then Governor Bush to ensure that the roads,
schools and water supply are available to meet the needs of communities throughout the
State. This bill amended Section 163.3177(6) (c) which requires that each municipality
identifies and plans for the water supply sources and facilities needed to serve existing
and new development within the local government's jurisdiction.
The City's 10 -Year Water Supply Facilities Work Plan (Work Plan).will reference the
initiatives already identified in Miami -Dade County's 20 -year Work Plan since the City is

Retail: 0.18 gallons per day per square foot
Industrial: 0.084 gallons per day per square foot
Restaurant: 65 gallons per day per seat
School: 12 gallons per day per student
Staff recommends that the Level of Service Standards be adopted as recommended by
DCA; as such, this revision has been incorporated in Policy 5.1 of the Infrastructure

The Administration is please with the minimal number of objections and
recommendations made by DCA and recommends that the City Commission adopt the
"Miami Beach 10 -Year Water supply Facilities Work Plan" inclusive of the proposed

Re: Historic Preservation Review of the Miami Beach 10RWSP1 Comprehensive Plan
Amendment (Miami -Dade County)
Dear Mr. Eubanks:
According to this agency's responsibilities under Section 163, Florida Statutes, and Chapter 9J -5,
Florida Administrative Code, we reviewed the above document to determine if data regarding
historic resources were given sufficient consideration in the request to amend the Miami Beach
Comprehensive Plan.
We reviewed the proposed 10 -Year Water Supply Facilities Work Plan with associated text
changes to consider the potential effects of these actions on historic resources. While our
cursory review suggests that the proposed changes may have no adverse effects on historic
resources, it is the city's responsibility to ensure that the proposed revisions will not have an
adverse effect on significant archaeological or historic resources.
If you have any questions regarding our comments, please feel free to contact Susan M. Harp of
the Division's Compliance Review staff at 850.245.6333.

Dear Mr. Eubanks:
Subject: City of Miami Beach, DCA #10RWSP1
Comments on Proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendment Package
The South Florida Water Management District (District) has completed its review of the
proposed amendment package submitted by the City of Miami Beach (City). The
proposed amendment adopts a Water Supply Facilities Work Plan (Work Plan) and
related amendments into the Future Land Use, Infrastructure, Conservation /Coastal
Zone Management, Intergovernmental Coordination, and Capital Improvements
elements. The City is a wholesale customer of the Miami -Dade County Water and
Sewer Department.
The District offers the following recommendations, which we request be incorporated
into your response to the City:
Water Supply
• Revise the comprehensive plan to adopt Miami -Dade County's Adopted Work
Plan by reference. Update Table 1 on page 12 using data from the County's
Adopted Work Plan and clarify the discussion on population projections to
indicate specifically which Miami -Dade County projections are being used in the
City's Work Plan.
• Revise the comprehensive plan to reflect that the Work Plan shall be revised
within 18 months after the District approves updates or amendments to the
Lower East Coast Water Supply Plan.
• Consider adopting a potable water level of service standard for non - residential
uses such as commercial and mixed -use. This will be helpful in assessing water
supply needs for future site - specific non - residential land use amendments.

Re: City of Miami Beach Comprehensive Plan Amendment, DCA #10RWSP1 .
Dear Mr. Eubanks:
The Department of Planning & Zoning has reviewed the proposed City of Miami Beach 10 -Year
Water Supply Facilities Work Plan and Comprehensive Plan Amendments. Our review is conducted
to identify points of consistency or inconsistency with provisions of the Miami -Dade County
Comprehensive Development Master Plan (CDMP). The City proposes to adopt a 10 -year water
supply plan and amend its comprehensive plan to strengthen coordination between the water supply
and land use planning. The Department finds that the proposed amendments are generally
consistent with the CDMP but offers the following comments:
1. Section 2.1: Overview (Page 4): It shall be noted in the fourth paragraph that the County's
Water Supply Plan has been adopted and the population projections have been revised as
noted in Table 1 on Page 5.
2. Section 3.3: Potable Water Level of Service Standard (Page 6): The City's system wide
potable water for 2008 and 2009 was 204 and 195 gallons per capita day (gpcd),
respectively, which exceeds the potable water level of service noted in the Infrastructure
Element, Objective 5, Policy 5.1, of the Comprehensive Plan.
3. Section 3.3: Potable Water Level of Service Standard (Page 6): The Historic Water Usage
Rates in Table 2 are incorrect. The City should revise Table 2 to reflect the correct historical
water usage.
4. Section 3.7: Conservation (Page 9): The City should delete the word "xeriscape" and replace
with "Florida friendly landscape techniques."
5. Section 3.7.1: Water Conservation Plans and Development Codes (Page 9): The City should
update the Conserve Florida Utility Profile as required to reflect current utility information.
The last paragraph on Page 9 should be revised to include current status of the water use
efficiency requirements in the Code of Miami -Dade County. This paragraph should make
reference to Sections 8 -31, 32 -84, 8A -381 and 32 -83.1 of the Code of Miami -Dade County.
Also, reference to compliance with landscape standards in Sections 18 -A and 18 -B, and
permanent landscape irrigation restrictions in Section 32 -8.2 of the Code of Miami -Dade
• County should be included.
Ray Eubanks, Administrator
Florida Department of Community Affairs
September 3, 2010
Page2of2
6. Section 3.7.2: City Specific Actions, Programs, Regulations, or Opportunities (Page 10): The
City should continue working with MDWASD Water Use Efficiency staff to identify and
implement Best Management Practices to reduce the City's water use per capita. The City
should consider removing references to "low flow" fixtures and replace with "high efficiency."
7. Section 4.1: Work Plan Projects (Page 11): The City should state that the City is a wholesale
customer of MDWASD.
8. Section 5.0: Infrastructure Element — Policy 6.6 (Page 14): The City should delete the
reference to "ultra -low' volume water saving devices and replace with "high efficiency."
9. Section 5.0: Conservation /Coastal Zone Management Element — Policy 13.3 (Page 17): The
City should delete the reference to "ultra -low" appliances and replace with "high efficiency."

Proposed Water Supply Facilities Work Plan
1.0 INTRODUCTION
The purpose of the City of Miami Beach 10 Year Water Supply Facilities Work Plan (Work
Plan) is to identify and plan for the water supply sources and facilities needed to serve
existing and new development within the local government's jurisdiction. Chapter 163, Part
II, F.S., requires local governments to prepare and adopt Work Plans into their
comprehensive plans within 18 months after the water management district approves a
regional water supply plan or its update. The Lower East Coast Water Supply Plan Update
was approved by the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) on February 15,
2007. Therefore, the deadline for local governments within the Lower East Coast jurisdiction
to amend their comprehensive plans to adopt a Work Plan was August 15, 2008.
Residents of the City of Miami Beach obtain their water directly from the Miami -Dade County
Water and Sewer Department (WASD), which is responsible for ensuring that enough
capacity is available for existing and future customers. The City is a wholesale customer of
Miami -Dade County WASD through an executed inter -local water agreement.
The City of Miami Beach 10 Year Water Supply Facilities Work Plan (Work Plan) will
reference the initiatives already identified in Miami -Dade County's 20 -year Work Plan since
the City is a wholesale buyer. According to state guidelines, the Work Plan and the
comprehensive plan amendment must address the development of traditional and
alternative water supplies, bulk sales agreements and conservation and reuse programs
that are necessary to serve existing and new development for at least a 10 -year planning
period. The City of Miami Beach Work Plan will have the same planning time schedule as
the first 10 -years of the Miami -Dade County's 20 -year Work Plan.
The City's Work Plan is divided into five sections:
Section 1 — Introduction
Section 2 — Background Information
Section 3 — Data and Analysis
Section 4 — Work Plan Projects /Capital Improvement Element/Schedule
Section 5 — Goals, Objectives, Policies
1.1 Statutory History
The Florida Legislature has enacted bills in the 2002, 2004, and 2005 sessions to address
the state's water supply needs. These bills, especially Senate Bills 360 and 444 (2005
legislative session), significantly changed Chapter 163 and 373 Florida Statutes (F.S.) by
strengthening the statutory links between the regional water supply plans prepared by the
water management districts and the comprehensive plans prepared by local governments.
In addition, these bills established the basis for improving coordination between the local
land use planning and water supply planning.
1.2 Statutory Requirements
Each local government must comply with the following requirements:
Feb October 6. 2010
3
City of Miami Beach
Proposed Water Supply Facilities Work Plan
1. Coordinate appropriate aspects of its comprehensive plan with the appropriate water
management district's regional water supply plan, [163.3177(4)(a), F.S.]
2. Ensure that its future land use plan is based upon availability of adequate water
supplies and public facilities and services [s.163.3177(6)(a), F.S., effective July 1,
2005]. Data and analysis demonstrating that adequate water supplies and
associated public facilities will be available to meet projected growth demands must
accompany all proposed Future Land Use Map amendments submitted to the
Department for review. The submitted package must also include an amendment to
the Capital Improvements Element, if necessary, to demonstrate that adequate
public facilities will be available to serve the proposed Future Land Use Map
modification.
3. Ensure that adequate water supplies and facilities area available to serve new
development no later than the date on which the local government anticipates
issuing a certificate of occupancy and consult with the applicable water supplier prior
to approving building permit, to determine whether adequate water supplies will be
available to serve the development by the anticipated issuance date of the certificate
of occupancy [s.163.3180 (2)(a), F.S., effective July 1, 2005]. This "water supply
concurrency" is now in effect, and local governments should be complying with the
requirement for all new development proposals. In addition, local governments
should update their comprehensive plans and land development regulations as soon
as possible to address these statutory requirements. The latest point at which the
comprehensive plan must be revised to reflect the concurrency requirements is at
the time the local government adopts plan amendments to implement the
recommendations of the Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR).
4. For local governments subject to a regional water supply plan, revise the General
Sanitary Sewer, Solid Waste, Drainage, Potable Water, and Natural Groundwater
Aquifer Recharge Element (the "Infrastructure Element "), within 18 months after the
water management district approves an updated regional water supply plan, to:
a. Identify and incorporate the alternative water supply project(s) selected by the
local government from projects identified in the updated regional water supply
plan, or the alternative project proposed by the local government under s.
373.0361(7), F.S. [s. 163.3177(6)(c), F.S.];
b. Identify the traditional and alternative water supply projects, bulk sales
agreements, and the conservation and reuse programs necessary to meet
current and future water use demands within the local government's
jurisdiction [s. 163.3177(6)(c), F.S.]; and
c. Include a water supply facilities work plan for at least a 10 -year planning
period for constructing the public, private, and regional water supply facilities
identified in the element as necessary to serve existing and new
development. [s. 163.3177(6)(c), F.S.] Amendments to incorporate the water .
supply facilities work plan into the comprehensive plan are exempt from the
twice -a -year amendment limitation. [s. 163.3177(6)(c), F.S.]
5. Revise the Five -Year Schedule of Capital Improvements to include any water supply,
reuse, and conservation projects and programs to be implemented during the five -
year period.
Fe October 6, 2010

City of Miami Beach
Proposed Water Supply Facilities Work Plan
6. To the extent necessary to maintain internal consistency after making changes
described in Paragraph 1 through 5 above, revise the Conservation Element to
assess projected water needs and sources for at least a 10 -year planning period,
considering the appropriate regional water supply plan, the applicable District Water
Management Plan, as well as applicable consumptive use permit(s). [s.163.3177
(6)(d), F.S.]
If the established planning period of a comprehensive plan is greater than ten years,
the plan must address the water supply sources necessary to meet and achieve the
existing and projected water use demand for established planning period,
considering the appropriate regional water supply plan. [s.163.3167 (13), F.S.]
7. To the extent necessary to maintain internal consistency after making changes
described in Paragraphs 1 through 5 above, revise the Intergovernmental
Coordination Element to ensure coordination of the comprehensive plan with
applicable regional water supply plans and regional water supply authorities' plans.
[s.163.3177(6)(h)1., F.S.]
8. Address in the EAR, the extent to which the local government has implemented the
10 -year water supply facilities work plan, including the development of alternative
water supplies, and determine whether the identified alternative water supply
projects, traditional water supply projects, bulk sales agreements, and conservation
and reuse programs are meeting local water use demands. [s.163.3191 (2)(1), F.S.]
2.0 BACKGROUND INFORMATION
2.1 Overview
The City of Miami Beach is a dense urban community located on a barrier island on the
southeast coast of Florida. Incorporated in 1915, the City has grown from a resort island
into a vibrant, tropical, historic city, though tourism is still the largest industry in the City. The
southern portion of Miami Beach, commonly known as South Beach, is the primary dining
and entertainment destination in Southeast Florida for tourists and residents of the greater
Miami metropolitan area.
The predominant character of the City of Miami Beach is that of an urban community of
approximately 93,000 persons (Miami Beach EAR, 2007) residing in a dense, fully
developed city within the urbanized area of Miami -Dade County. The City consists of high
and low -rise multi - family residential, limited single family residential, entertainment districts
and very limited industrial uses.
The boundaries of the City encompass an area approximately 7.1 square miles bounded by
three other municipalities (Miami, North Bay Village and Surfside), Biscayne Bay and the
Atlantic Ocean. It consists of a number of islands interconnected with bridges and a portion
of Fisher Island, which is separated by Government Cut and connected to the City via a
ferry service from Terminal Island in the City proper. The City has not expanded in land and
area in recent years, and does not expect to expand in the future.

. . • • - - - - . • .- •
It must be noted that there are discrepancies between the BEBR population projections
(above) for the City and those found in the Miami -Dade WASD 20 -Year Water Supply
Facilities Work Plan for the planning period. For the purpose of water supply planning the
Miami -Dade WASD projections will be utilized and at the time of the 2010 Census all
population projections will be revisited.
As stated in the Miami -Dade WASD 20 -Year Water Supply Facilities Work Plan the City of
Miami Beach population projections are as follows: 106,286 in 2007; 110,677 by 2010;
117,997 by 2015; 124,489 by 2020; 130,980 by 2025; and 137,472 by 2030.
As shown in Figure 3, the water distribution service area for the City includes only those
areas within its municipal boundaries.
The development of existing vacant land within the City will potentially result in population
increase during the planning period. The City is substantially developed with only
approximately 167 acres on 566 vacant parcels scattered throughout the city. The City -
owned vacant land covers approximately 86 acres, which are currently affected by a City
Charter amendment that requires a City -wide referendum to sell or change the use.
Privately- owned, vacant land is approximately 82 acres scattered throughout 318 parcels.
These vacant parcels are subject to the existing Future Land Use Map categories and Land
Development Regulations of the City Code and will be reviewed on an individual basis as
development proposals are submitted. The development and re- development that has
occurred in the City has been consistent with the City's adopted Future Land Use Map and
the Land Development Regulations that govern each zoning district.
2.2 Relevant Regional Issues
As the state agency responsible for water supply in the Lower East Coast planning area, the
SFWMD plays a pivotal role in resource protection, through criteria used for Consumptive
Use Permitting. As pressure increased on the Everglades ecosystem resource, the
Governing Board initiated rule making to limit increased allocations dependent on the
Everglades system. As a result, the Regional Water Availability Rule was adopted by the
Governing Board on February 15, 2007 as part of the SFWMD's water use permit program.
This reduced reliance on the regional system for future water supply needs, mandates the
development of alternative water supplies, and increasing conservation and reuse.
3. DATA AND ANALYSIS
The intent of the data and analysis section of the Work Plan is to describe the information
that local governments need to provide to state planning and regulatory agencies as part of
their proposed comprehensive plan amendments, particularly those that would change the
Future Land Use Map (FLUM) to increase density and intensity. Additionally, population
projections should be reviewed for consistency between the County and the South Florida
Water Management District's Water Supply Plan.

Proposed Water Supply Facilities Work Plan
3.1 Population Information
The City's future population figures are derived from Miami -Dade County Planning and
Zoning Department and University of Florida BEBR and the 2000 US Census. Between the
1990 and 2000 U.S. Census, the permanent population of the City of Miami Beach
decreased from 92,639 to 87,933 (5.3 %). Estimates and projections show growth will occur
slowly in the City; however these projections are based on prevailing trends. Available
vacant land in the City, as well as Growth Management initiatives currently undergoing
studies, may have an impact on future population projections. Current population
projections from Miami Beach staff estimate that the population will grow to approximately
97,700 by 2025, or about a 6.5% increase, while current Shimberg Center for Affordable
Housing projections show the 2025 Miami Beach population to be 107,177.
Below is a comparison of the various population projections in tabular format. As can be
seen in the table below, there is general inconsistency between the three separate agencies
tracking population data. The BEBR population projections are consistently within the
highest population projection, while MDWASD is closer to that of the County's projection for
the City throughout. For the purpose of water supply planning, the MDWASD projections will
be utilized and at the time of the 2010 Census all population projections will be revisited.
Population growth between now and the 2010 Census is not expected to be significant.

3.3 Potable Water Level of Service Standard
The current Potable Water Level of Service for the City of Miami Beach can be found in the
Infrastructure Element of the Comprehensive Plan, Objective 5, Policy 5.1 as follows:
Policy 5.1:
The following City -wide Level of Service Standards shall be used as the basis for
determining the availability of facility capacity; the systems shall be able to
provide /accommodate at least the minimums specified:

City of Miami Beach
Proposed Water Supply Facilities Work Plan
Potable Water Facilities Water Consumption Standard:
140 Average gallons per capita per day
168 Peak gallons per capita per day
The average gallons per capita rate applies to the year -round standard, while the
peak gallons per capita rate applies to the City during peak tourist period due to the
significant seasonal influx of temporary residents. The City uses a multiplier of 1.2,
which gives a 20% increase in population to estimate required services and facilities.
The City's recent consumptive use rates are showing a downward trend based on per capita
water usage.

3.5 Water Supply Distribution Provided by Local Government
As a wholesale customer, Miami Beach is provided with potable water by Miami -Dade
County WASD on an annual volume basis. The Water Division of the Public Works
Department provides reliable and high quality water that protects public health and safety.
The Division installs, maintains and repairs the City's water distribution system and its
appurtenances that include 4 water storage tanks with total storage capacity of 12 million
February-17 October 6. 2010

City of Miami Beach
Proposed Water Supply Facilities Work Plan
gallons and 5 water pumping stations. The Division is responsible for safe and efficient
distribution of 7.6 billion gallons of water annually and to minimize the distribution system
water Toss.
3.6 Water Supply Provided by Miami -Dade County
The following text is applicable for local governments served by WASD, and is summarized
from the Miami -Dade County Work Plan.
The intent of the Miami -Dade County 20 -Year Water Supply Facilities Work Plan is to meet
the statutory requirements mentioned in subsection 1.2 of this plan and to coordinate the
WASD's water supply initiatives with the SFWMD's Lower East Coast Water Supply Plan
Update.
The WASD's service area is all portions of Miami -Dade County within the Urban
Development Boundary (UDB), excluding all or portions of North Miami, North Miami Beach,
Aventura, Sunny Isles, Biscayne Park, Miami Gardens, Homestead and Florida City. The
areas within the Urban Expansion are included in the planning horizon after 2015. The
following summarizes Miami -Dade County's Work Plan:
• Description of population and water demand projections (Exhibit C -1 and C -2, Water
Supply Service Area, Retail and Wholesale Customers, respectively, by Municipality
provides municipal population projections and projected AADF "Annual Average
Daily Flow" finished water based on 155 gallons per capita per day (gpcd). The
population information was derived from Miami -Dade County Department of Planning
and Zoning Transportation Analysis Zone (TAZ) 2004 population data. This
subsection also provides a brief discussion of WASD's conservation and reuse
programs.);
• The Water Supply Facilities Work Plan details the facilities and proposed alternative
water supply (AWS) projects that are planned in order to meet the water demands
through 2027. These projects are expected to be completed in increments
consistent with the projected growth set forth in the Plan. The AWS projects and
annual average daily demand (AADD) assumes that all current wholesalers will
remain in the WASD system through 2027, except for the City of North Miami Beach.
The AWS projects are included in the County's Capital Improvement Element.
In the 20 -Year Work Plan, the WASD is committed to meet the water demand for the
municipalities within the service area. The City of Miami Beach is served by the Hialeah -
Preston sub -area water treatment plants. These plants are interconnected and act as a
single system. The plants operate under a Title V Florida Department of Environmental
Protection permit number 0250281 - 0005 -AV. Both of these treatment facilities obtain raw
water from the Biscayne Aquifer under consumptive use permit number 13- 00017 -W and
utilize the same basic process for water treatment. The treatment process includes lime
softening, chlorination, ammonization, fluoride, filtration and air striping. In addition to these
plants, Miami -Dade WASD also operates the Alexander Orr, Jr. Water Treatment Plant and
other minor water treatment plants servicing the southern portion of the County. The
Alexander Orr, Jr. plant utilizes the same water treatment process as the Hialeah- Preston
plants with the exception of the air striping. Figure 2 depicts the location of the three main
treatment plants and their corresponding service areas.

The City is required to adopt the Miami -Dade County Water Efficiency Use Plan. The
requirements set forth in an Ordinance became effective January 1, 2009. Miami -Dade
WASD implements all Best Management Practices included in the Water Efficiency Use
Plan in addition to various irrigation, xerissape Florida friendly landscape techniques and
plumbing fixture efficiency ordinances and some wastewater reuse.

Currently, the WASD is implementing all Best Management Practices (BMPs) included in the
20 -year Water Use Efficiency Plan, which was approved by the South Florida Water
Management District in May 2007.
Water Conservation Plans and Development Codes
In addition, all of the WASD's wholesale customers are required to submit a Water
Conservation Plan to its Water Use Efficiency Section as mandated by County Ordinance
06 -177, Section 32 -83.1 of the Miami -Dade County Code. The Plan will identify BMPs based
on population characteristics and type of service for each municipal service area.
In addition, Miami -Dade County has developed recommendations for new development that
would achieve higher water use savings than currently required by code. The
recommendations were developed by an Advisory Committee and were presented to the
Board of County Commissioners (BCC) on June 5, 2007. These water conservation
recommendations were adopted by ordinance on February 5, 2008. The Ordinance requires
that a manual for implementation of the recommendations be developed by July 2008.
These water efficiency recommendations represent an additional 30 percent to the water
savings identified in the 20 -year Water Use Efficiency Plan. All applicants will be required to
comply with these future code requirements. The list of recommendations submitted to the
BCC and the ordinance relating to water use efficiency standard are presented in Appendix
D and are also posted in the Miami -Dade Water Conservation Portal website.
Per Capita Consumption
Furthermore, the WASD will establish per capita consumption for all municipalities including
those in its retail customer service area. Based on this data, the WASD will work with the
municipalities to address those with higher than average per capita and will target programs
for those areas. The County anticipates that the implementation of the BMPs identified in
the 20 -year Water Use Efficiency Plan will result in an adjusted system wide per capita of
147.82 gpcd by 2027.
3.7.2 City Specific Actions, Programs, Regulations, or Opportunities
The City will coordinate future water conservation efforts with the WASD and the SFWMD to
ensure that proper techniques are applied. In addition, the City will continue to support and
expand existing goals, objectives and policies in the comprehensive plan that promote water
conservation in a cost - effective and environmentally sensitive manner. The City will continue
to actively support the SFWMD and Miami -Dade County in the implementation of new

Proposed Water Supply Facilities Work Plan
regulations, implementation of the BMPs or programs that are design to conserve water
during the dry season.
As a result of a recent energy audit, several specific projects were identified to retrofit City
facilities to conserve water. The City plans to replace standard flow toilet fixtures with lew
flew high efficiency,, retrofit urinals with lewr -flew high efficiency, valves and modify lavatory
faucets with lew flew high efficiency aerators. In addition, water savings will be realized
through showerhead replacements, ice machine retrofits, and laundry washer replacements
at City owned facilities. The City also will install salt chlorine generators for water savings at
three pools (Flamingo Park, Normandy Isle Activity Center and Scott Rakow Youth Center).
Additionally, the City is currently mixing brackish water into the irrigation of Miami Beach and
Normandy Shores golf courses to save water and is also currently performing extensive
waterline restoration projects throughout the entire City.
3.7.3 Identify any Local Financial Responsibilities as Detailed in the CIS
The City currently has committed financing for in the capital water projects budget; see
Table 2 below for details.
3.8 Reuse
The County is planning to install a utility tunnel from Miami Beach to a County Wastewater
Treatment Plant. The County plans to include a water reuse pipe as part of this utility tunnel
project. The City will work with the County to identify potential users of this reuse water.
Through an Ameresco Guaranteed Energy Savings Contract, the City is exploring
development of a water reclamation facility that would provide reuse water for use by the
Miami Beach Golf Course and potentially for other water customers. The City may also
explore the possibility of a desalination plant.
3.8.1 Regional and County -wide Issues
State law supports reuse efforts. For the past years, Florida's utilities, local governments,
and water management districts have led the nation in implementing water reuse programs
that increase the quantity of reclaimed water used and public acceptance of reuse
programs. Section 373.250(1) F.S. provides that "water reuse programs designed and
operated in compliance with Florida's rules governing reuse are deemed protective of public
health and environmental quality." In addition, Section 403.064(1), F.S., provides that
"reuse is a critical component of meeting the state's existing and future water supply needs
while sustaining natural systems."
The City of Miami Beach supports water reuse initiatives under consideration by both the
SFWMD and Miami -Dade County. The County has committed to implement a total of 170
MGD of water reuse as noted in the County's 20 -year water use permit. In the 20 -year Work
Plan, the County identified a number of water reuse projects and their respective schedule.
According to the Plan, "reuse projects to recharge the aquifer with highly treated reclaimed
water will be in place before additional withdrawals over the base condition water use are
made from the Alexander Orr and South Dade subarea wellfields. In addition, reuse
irrigation projects are anticipated for the North and Central District Wastewater Treatment
Plants. These projects will be implemented in the Cities of North Miami and North Miami
Beach, and are currently under construction for Key Biscayne."
