Title
APPROVAL OF THE FLORIDA POWER & LIGHT COMPANY UTILITY UNDERGROUND EASEMENT AGREEMENT FOR THE NEW HIGH SCHOOL AT WELLEN PARK PROJECT (PARTIAL EASEMENT FOR FIRST TRANSFORMERS & SWITCH CABINET)

Description
As part of the New High School at Wellen Park Project, Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) requires an Easement from the School Board in order to provide electrical utility service to the future high school site currently under construction.

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 New High School at Wellen Park Project, be approved as presented.
