Summary In summary, Vero Beach wants to sell its electric utility to Florida Power & Light. Vero Beach receives 51 MW of power from three FMPA power Projects. The City of Alachua is a partner with Vero Beach in the St. Lucie Project. Vero Beach is asking to have FMPA’s All-Requirements Project (ARP) assume Vero Beach’s entitlements in the three FMPA Projects. FMPA’s contracts require consents and waivers from City of Alachua and others to release Vero Beach from FMPA agreements. Their goal is to have ARP and Project Participant Cities approve by December 2017.
Tonight's presentation is to provide information to the City Commission regarding this matter and what will be forthcoming as a request of the City Commission in the future. |
