Special Utility Connections

Regarding utility connections for commercial, institutional and subdivision projects, City crews typically do not perform this type of work "in-house".

For all projects, the City reserves the right to determine if City resources will be utilized for the work (or some portion thereof). The City reserves the right to assess the scope in terms of:

• Design and permitting
• Difficulty
• Equipment
• Personnel

Approval

If the developer is responsible for utility work (determined through the Availability Request process), then civil engineering plans, review and approval by Public Works will be required, and a Florida licensed and bonded underground utility contractor must perform the work to City specifications at developer’s cost.
