\"We were able to utilize these poles and the fixtures from the old South Shore Park when they were removed,\" a staff presenter said, describing an estimated installation cost of $104,500 under the Davco electrical contract pricing. Staff said the poles came from Field 1 at South Shore and are the only ones structurally certified for reuse.

Councilmembers pressed staff on hours and control. \"It will be on a timer. So if we mirror Village Park, it'll be till 09:00 at night, Monday through Friday,\" a staff member said. Staff confirmed the lighting system for the open-play area will be independent of the baseball/softball field lighting so the village can run the new lights separately from the existing field lights.

Staff noted the move reuses existing infrastructure and keeps project costs low. The lights will allow residents who use the space for informal play to continue into the evening on weekdays. Council discussed publicity to increase resident awareness of the newly lit open-play area.

Staff said South Shore Park is being prepared for reopening in mid-to-late June after grass grow-in and other work; the Tiger Shark Cove lights are a separate installation to improve nighttime usability of the park. No formal council vote on the installation appeared in the provided transcript; staff presented the item for council’s consent agenda.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Wellington - Village Council Workshop on 2025-04-21 4:30 PM - Apr 21, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","Council discussed using two Musco poles and fixtures salvaged from South Shore Park to illuminate roughly three-quarters of an acre at Tiger Shark Cove Park; staff estimated the installation cost at $104,500 and said the lights will be on timers, likely until 9 p.m. Monday–Friday.","taxTitle","Wellington, Palm Beach County, Florida","taxId",8863,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6581697,"Wellington says Well 8 offline for bacteriological remediation; work could restore service in six to eight weeks",235,963000,1198000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3071297-4d02427dc6efb14b4b1199ccf0d44bf7&start=963&end=1198","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3071297-4d02427dc6efb14b4b1199ccf0d44bf7/thumbnail_963000.jpg","/articles/6581697/Wellington/Palm-Beach-County/Florida/Wellington-says-Well-8-offline-for-bacteriological-remediation-work-could-restore-service-in-six-to-eight-weeks","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6581697-cd56c10950db7c9f062de9b9386edcbe/orig.mp4?Expires=1770442853&Signature=iJluo1oSkUDnlpAm7TXHKChz5bRAuvMQyzUqMzUomYJ6Xk2sZ5f7BnSm0i7oCoLqznU~gQJJmhiaKa51ycEWLmbs80b~OT81XmA5T8b6lWsvApibvI1PgVBgRvPmBUevDmY3ogUfF9a-4rNejl8D7XU-K45uw5vQAWvCZzw1i4vMN3Hrj1CGhXKm54VZxNcKx4V4Wtv6fpAegDLtu~BcI0qmVzY~VUTnyQjFiG8kgy32qVulg3cBEwOEf-UPT~wsZBOSQPGQAc6BmWkS5b6qV2lLHXY2qER4m9nXOkGn2-~smQNsfuLO~iqoIi9EHpGenrYtlUMz~auF5J9xFNUdfA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Village staff told council that Well 8 has been offline since February after routine bacteriological monitoring returned positive results and that initial in-house and contractor disinfection attempts did not fully resolve the problem.

\"We did a couple initial rounds of disinfection ... these initial efforts did not resolve the issue immediately,\" a staff presenter said, describing further work recommended by the village hydrogeologist. The remediation plan includes multiple chemical and mechanical cleaning methods and rebuilding the wellhead at a higher elevation to better prevent contamination.

Staff said the village conducts monthly bacteriological testing on all wells and that repeated failures trigger a regulated remediation process. \"We do routine well monitoring for bacteriological testing,\" the presenter said, adding that the process is regulated and may require disinfection, acid scrubbing and other steps.

The village has 18 wells in its system; staff said this issue affects one well and noted the well field is intended to be redundant. Staff said the rehabilitation work currently delays planned maintenance on other wells and that full return to service requires passing 10 days of two tests per day as required by the health department. Staff estimated the well could be back online in approximately six to eight weeks and that testing would begin in about a month.

The affected well is located north of Forest Hill in an FPL easement. Staff noted some wells beneath the power lines will ultimately have to be relocated outside the easement because overhead lines limit redrilling options, though the other wells in the easement remain usable for now.

Council asked for a timeline; staff reiterated the six- to eight-week estimate and committed to testing progress updates. No formal council action was recorded in the transcript; staff presented the ratification of emergency purchase orders related to well work as an item on the agenda for council consideration.","Village staff reported Well 8 has been out of service since February after bacteriological test failures; staff is conducting aggressive cleaning, wellhead rebuild, and expects testing to indicate whether the well can be returned to service in roughly six to eight weeks.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6581700,"Wellington staff recommend Genoptic for school-zone speed cameras; enforcement start aimed for school year",741,2619000,3360000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3071297-4d02427dc6efb14b4b1199ccf0d44bf7&start=2619&end=3360","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3071297-4d02427dc6efb14b4b1199ccf0d44bf7/thumbnail_2619000.jpg","/articles/6581700/Wellington/Palm-Beach-County/Florida/Wellington-staff-recommend-Genoptic-for-school-zone-speed-cameras-enforcement-start-aimed-for-school-year","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6581700-381dce560d46a9295e492910b696d693/orig.mp4?Expires=1770442853&Signature=PdznSwxlWGs2KZex~BI8RmASQqoTPAInE7OdL31LEwpDGK-YxbZUZ-ScKfTjwDQjaJ06d1k7gPR6MPZVhx51RmUtOSXzmEnq84Lrw1bZmynFpxlI7tYCnaMoUxGdftTzzFU6lFqfJEgcN47IehfMgdf3h6aJKzoLUabCg2rjKbs4f2FK9TcYFOjdKeKcp4ZjOp0N-wo~NaVxeyiv1y4FFM0zaRaq-rL7ryRaho4lHXCnOf5v8OuuLhHF8VJbRyREDbGd-PG~tBoWCRgi9ItKUgi3GtAD6WheHG7cigoGmdG7p2HodiYZ-ru2kiU21FCrGIuSptTehTFiR3t86aVsUw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Village of Wellington staff recommended awarding a five-year contract, with renewal options, to Genoptic North America for automated speed detection in school zones, and told the council the program’s projected implementation date is the first day of school, Aug. 11, 2025.

The recommendation came as staff summarized a competitive procurement. \"Our selection committee's recommendation is to award a contract to Genoptic North America,\" a staff presenter said, noting the evaluation used qualifications, approach and fees. The scoring placed Genoptic first among six proposers.

Village staff told councilmembers the system would run in designated school zones beginning 30 minutes before school (or breakfast program) through the school day and 30 minutes after dismissal; staff will confirm whether aftercare hours extend the enforcement window on a school-by-school basis. Speeds exceeding 10 miles per hour over the posted limit would be eligible for photo enforcement.

Captured alleged violations will be reviewed by a village traffic enforcement officer before a notice is issued. Notices would carry a $100 penalty with no driver license points; failure to pay may lead to a uniform traffic citation with points. Staff described the expected distribution of a $100 notice: $49.98 to the Village of Wellington, $10.02 to Genoptic, $20 to the state general fund, $12 to the local school district security program, $5 to the school crossing guard program, and $3 to the Criminal Standard and Training Fund.

Staff said the selected vendor will install Flock Falcon license-plate-reader (LPR) units at school locations at no additional charge and that the vendor’s proposed schedule supports the target start date. Wellington High School was noted as having been warranted as a school zone and is under design; once it is formally a school zone, the system can be deployed there as well. County-jurisdiction schools such as Palm Beach Central would require coordination with Palm Beach County and FDOT.

Council discussion focused on hours of enforcement and the distribution of fines. A councilmember asked whether the enforcement period would include aftercare hours that run later into the evening; staff said they would confirm whether those hours will extend the enforcement window for affected schools. Another councilmember asked whether the portion of fines intended for the school district could be earmarked for Wellington schools; staff said that would likely require a local agreement with the district and that staff would pursue that coordination but could not guarantee it by the next meeting.

The procurement’s scoring and committee membership were identified in staff materials. Committee members included Wagner, Silliman, Coats, Juckett and Rheinsvold. The vendor ranking listed Genoptic as first, followed by Ultimate, Blue Line Solutions/Red Speed (tied), Verra Mobility and Novoa Global.

Staff recommended council approval of the contract award. No formal council vote on the award appears in the transcript; the item was scheduled for action at the council meeting the following day.

Implementation questions remaining include confirmation of the enforcement window for aftercare hours and a local agreement with the school district if council wishes to earmark the district share to Wellington schools specifically.","Village staff recommended awarding a contract to Genoptic North America for automated speed enforcement in school zones; program would begin on the first day of school and levy $100 notices for eligible violations, with a $49.98 share to the village and $10.02 to the vendor.","actionData","errors"]
