c. Upon completion of construction of the City Pipeline, and when the RIBS

City Commission Meeting · 2026-06-08 · agenda_item

This item concerns the City of Leesburg's potential acceptance of a donated pipeline. The pipeline, referred to as the City Pipeline, will be donated to the City by RIBS upon completion of its construction and when the RIBS Pipeline and disposal facility can accept the City's reject effluent. After the City inspects and approves the pipeline's condition, it will take ownership. The City will then be responsible for the pipeline's operation, maintenance, repair, and replacement. This is an early stage in the public process, as the item is under review by the City Commission. The project involves the eventual operation and maintenance of a significant utility asset, which could lead to future needs for repair, replacement, and ongoing upkeep services. Contractors and suppliers specializing in utility infrastructure, maintenance, and repair may find opportunities as the City assumes responsibility for this asset.
