Title
APPROVAL OF THE FLORIDA POWER & LIGHT COMPANY UNDERGROUND EASEMENT AGREEMENT FOR THE SARASOTA HIGH SCHOOL BUILDINGS #13 & #14 RENOVATION PROJECT

Description

As part of the Sarasota High School Buildings #13 & #14 Renovation Project, Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) requires an Easement from the School Board in order to install an additional FPL transformer adjacent to the existing one, for additional load for this project and to provide for electrical utility services to the future Visual Performing Arts Center.



Gap Analysis
This easement allows Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) to have access to service their equipment on our site. This area is limited to portions of the site on which their equipment and infrastructure are located.

Previous Outcomes 
Since the district cannot service this equipment, easements are the preferred mechanism to permit Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) to work on district property. 

Expected Outcomes 
Allowing Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) access easements to service their equipment allows them to maintain and service facilities to school sites efficiently and effectively.

Strategic Plan Goal

Pillar 4 - Every School Equipped

Priority 2 - Create High Quality Infrastructure


Recommendation

That the Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) Easement for the Sarasota High School Buildings #13 & #14 Renovation project, be approved as presented.
