1. CITY'S PROPERTY. The CITY owns a certain tract of land in Miami -Dade
County, Florida, which is legally described in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and made a part
hereof, hereinafter sometimes described as the "CITY'S property". The CITY has
requested that the DEPARTMENT render water and sewer service to the CITY'S property
and the COUNTY agrees to do so subject to the terms, covenants and conditions
contained herein.
2. WAIVER. No delay or failure to exercise a right under this Agreement or

Consent Decree and the Second and Final Partial Consent Decree entered in United
States of America Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) vs. Metropolitan Dade
County (Case Number 93-1109 CIV-Moreno), as currently in effect or as amended or
modified in future agreements and all other current, subsequent or future agreements, the
consent order between DEP and the COUNTY filed on April 4, 2004, court orders,
judgments, consent orders, consent decrees and the like entered into between the
COUNTY and the United States, State of Florida and/or any other governmental entity, and
all other current, subsequent or future enforcement and regulatory actions and
proceedings.
4. PROVISION OF SERVICE AND CONNECTION CHARGES. The COUNTY
will provide an adequate domestic water supply for the CITY'S property and will receive
and dispose of sanitary sewage from the CITY'S property. The CITY shall pay water and
sewer connection charges for all those units to be constructed on the CITY'S property
subject to the limitations specified herein. The CITY acknowledges that, to the extent that
water or sewer service will ultimately be rendered to the property by a volume customer,
the CITY is a new retail user provided water or sewer service from a volume customer, and
acknowledges that it is responsible for payment of connection charges; however, in the
event that water or sewer is provided directly by the COUNTY, the CITY acknowledges that
it is a new retail customer of the COUNTY'S and accordingly also liable for payment of
connection charges. The CITY may be considered both a new retail customer and a new
retail
GRAPELAND PARK IMPROVEMENTS, ID# 19450
water service to the property and a volume customer sewer service, or vice -versa. The
connection charges are based on the average daily gallons for the various building units
and/or use as shown on Exhibit "B" attached hereto and made a part hereof, multiplied by
the applicable rates established by the COUNTY. The CITY intends to demolish the
existing park and construct and connect a new park with bathroom facilities for an
estimated five hundred (500) persons per day, five hundred forty (540) square feet of
concession stand space, fifteen thousand seven hundred one (15,701) square foot
recreation building (office -type use), and seven hundred fifty-seven (757) square feet of
press box space (office -type use). However, the DEPARTMENT shall allow gallonage
credits for the previously existing and connected structures, which will be and/or have been
demolished within the CITY'S PROPERTY. It is the CITY'S sole responsibility to provide
the DEPARTMENT with copies of the CITY'S demolition report, which shall include
addresses of all units, the total amount of units, square footage and occupancy load for
said previous structures, subject to review by the COUNTY prior to the DEPARTMENT
allowing any gallonage credits. Therefore, the agreed total average daily gallonage is nine
thousand four hundred ninety-six (9,496) gallons, resulting in combined water and sewer
connection charges in the amount of sixty-six thousand three hundred seventy-eight dollars
and four cents ($66,377.04). However, water and sewer connection charges shall be
calculated at the rates in effect at the time of actual connection to the COUNTY'S water
and sewer systems and shall be paid by the CITY prior to the DEPARTMENT'S installation
of a water meter and/or the rendition of sewer service to the CITY'S property. The
DEPARTMENT'S current connection charge rates are one dollar and thirty-nine cents
THIS DO Ui\.;

GRAPELAND PARK IMPROVEMENTS, ID# 19450
($1.39) and five dollars and sixty cents ($5.60) per gallon per day for water and sewer,
respectively. The water and sewer connection charge rates are subject to revision at any
time.
5. OTHER USES ON THE PROPERTY. If the CITY constructs buildings other
than those outlined in paragraph 4 above, or otherwise changes the use of structures built
such that paragraph 4 is no longer an accurate description of the uses at the CITY'S
property, the COUNTY shall determine if additional capacity is needed, as calculated using
Exhibit "B" attached hereto. If additional capacity is required, connection charges,
computed at prevailing rates, capacity allocation, if available, and construction connection
charges, if any, shall be required by the CITY. If requested by the DEPARTMENT, the
CITY shall provide the COUNTY a list of all tenants and building units and/or use prior to
the installation of any water meters by the COUNTY for the CITY'S property.
6. POINTS OF CONNECTION. The COUNTY owns and operates a twenty-
four (24) inch water main located in N.W. 14 Street abutting the southern boundary of the
CITY'S property, from which the CITY shall connect the CITY'S property. Any public water
main extensions within the CITY'S property shall be twelve (12) inches minimum in
diameter with two (2) points of connection and the water system shall be looped. The
COUNTY also owns and operates eight (8) inch gravity sewer mains located within the
CITY'S property and in N.W. 37 Avenue north of N.W. 15 Street, abutting portions of the
eastern boundary of the CITY'S property, from which the CITY shall connect the CITY'S

property, provided that there is sufficient depth and that there are no obstacles which would
preclude construction of the sewer. Any public gravity sewer main extensions within the
CITY'S property shall be eight (8) inches minimum in diameter. Other points of connection
may be established subject to approval of the DEPARTMENT.
7. CONDITION TO SERVICE. The CITY hereby acknowledges that the eight
(8) inch water main in N.W. 37 Avenue abutting the eastern boundary of the CITY'S
property does not meet the minimum requirements as specified in the DEPARTMENT'S
Rules and Regulations for Water and Sewer Service. Therefore, as a condition precedent
to the DEPARTMENT'S provision of water and sewer service to the CITY'S property, the
CITY hereby agrees to pay to the DEPARTMENT a contribution in the amount of thirty
dollars ($30.00) per lineal foot of the CITY'S property directly abutting N.W. 37 Avenue for
the construction of future water mains. The length of front footage abutting N.W. 37
Avenue is hereby agreed to be one thousand seventy-eight (1,078) feet resulting in a
contribution charge in the amount of thirty-two thousand three hundred forty dollars
($32,340.00). The CITY shall pay said contribution to the DEPARTMENT with the
execution of this Agreement.
8. CONDITION TO SERVICE. As a condition precedent to the COUNTY'S
provision of service to the CITY'S property under this Agreement, the CITY agrees to
execute a unity of title in a form approved by the COUNTY. The executed documents shall
be delivered to the COUNTY with the execution of this Agreement.

relocated, and all easements associated with said facilities vacated and/or relocated. Said
relocation and/or removal of facilities shall be performed by or for the CITY in accordance
with plans and specifications to be approved by the COUNTY and in such a manner that
there will be no interruption of services to the COUNTY'S existing customers. All costs
incurred shall be borne solely by the CITY. The removal and/or relocation of certain water
and sewer facilities and vacating and/or relocating of associated easements are conditions
precedent to the issuance of sewer verification forms for those proposed buildings that
conflict with said sewer facilities.
10. DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF FACILITIES. The CITY at its own cost
and expense shall cause to be designed, constructed and installed all of the necessary
water and/or sewer facilities provided for in this Agreement unless otherwise specified.

DEPARTMENT.
11. INSPECTION. The COUNTY shall have the right but not the obligation to
make engineering inspections of all the construction work performed by the CITY under the
terms of this Agreement including private facilities not to be conveyed to the COUNTY.
Such inspections shall not be construed to constitute any guarantee on the part of the
COUNTY as to the quality and condition of materials and workmanship. Any inspections
by the DEPARTMENT shall not relieve the CITY of any responsibility for proper
construction of said facilities in accordance with approved plans and specifications.
Furthermore, any inspections by the DEPARTMENT shall not relieve the CITY of
responsibility for the quality and condition of materials and workmanship.
12. TESTS. During construction and at the time when various tests are required,
the COUNTY'S engineer or its authorized representative, together with the CITY'S
engineer and contractor, shall jointly be present to witness tests for determination of

right, at any time, to bar any subcontractor or consultant employed by the CITY from
engaging in any sort of work or activity related to this Agreement, if such be in the interests
of the COUNTY. In the event the COUNTY rejects any subcontractor or consultant, said
subcontractor or consultant will immediately cease work on anything related to this
Agreement. The CITY shall not be entitled to compensation for any monies previously paid
to any subcontractor or consultant if said subcontractor or consultant is rejected by the
COUNTY.
15. COMPLIANCE WITH ALL LAWS. The CITY, at its own cost and
expense, shall comply with all applicable laws, statutes, rules, and ordinances in carrying
out the activities contemplated herein.
16. APPROVALS AND PERMITS. The CITY shall be fully responsible for
obtaining all required approvals from all appropriate governmental and regulatory agencies
and all necessary permits for all facilities contemplated in this Agreement. Notwithstanding

including but not limited to the State of Florida Department of Transportation, the South
Florida Water Management District, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Florida East
Coast Railroad may require that the COUNTY be named as permittee for certain
construction activities even though the CITY'S contractor will actually perform the work. To
insure that the COUNTY will incur no costs or liability as a result of being named permittee
on such permits, the CITY shall provide sufficient security as acceptable to the COUNTY
which shall indemnify and protect the COUNTY from all claims, actions, judgments, liability,
loss, cost and expense, including reasonable attorney's fees, related to work performed by
the CITY pursuant to such permits. The security shall be furnished prior to the start of
construction and shall be in an amount equal to the COUNTY'S cost estimate for the

Exhibit "C" shall be subject to the written approval and consent of the DEPARTMENT and
shall be dependent on the availability of the water resource and the various restrictions
placed on the supply of water or the disposal of sewage by local, state and federal
government agencies and the physical limitations on the COUNTY'S supply and treatment
capacity. If the CITY does not utilize the yearly amount of water or sewage treatment
facility allocation specified in Exhibit "C", said amount will be available to the CITY in the
next calendar year subject to the limitations and provisions specified herein.
21. ALLOCATION OF CAPACITY. The COUNTY agrees to include the
aforesaid allocation in its regional water supply, production and transmission facilities and
regional sanitary sewer system, once the CITY is granted necessary sewer allocation, as
specified in paragraph three (3) hereinabove. However, it is mutually agreed and
understood by the COUNTY and the CITY that the allocation of capacity by the COUNTY
does not guarantee the ability of the COUNTY to supply water for the CITY'S property or
the ability to receive and dispose of sewage originating from the CITY'S property. Capacity
allocation is subject to local, state and federal agencies and other regulatory bodies having
jurisdiction. In connection therewith, the CITY agrees that the COUNTY shall not be liable
or in any way responsible for any costs, claims or losses incurred by the CITY as a result of
actions by regulatory bodies, which are related to capacity allocation.

COUNTY by the CITY prior to the COUNTY'S installation of a water meter and/or the
rendition of sewer service to the CITY'S property.
23. CONVEYANCE OF TITLE. Conveyance of all easements shall be by
separate instruments in recordable form as approved by the COUNTY and shall be
accompanied by a written opinion of title by an attorney licensed to practice law in the State
of Florida, which states that the CITY is the owner of the property interest to be conveyed,
subject only to liens, encumbrances and restrictions as are acceptable to the COUNTY.
The opinion shall also state that upon execution by the CITY, a valid and enforceable
easement will be vested to the COUNTY. The CITY shall pay for all recording fees and for
all documentary stamps. The details for all conveyances are specified hereinabove.
Failure of the CITY to provide proper conveyances shall be cause for the COUNTY to
refuse to render service to the CITY'S property.
