Introduction
The Florida Legislature via Chapters 163 and 373 of the Florida Statutes(F.S.)has established a
link between the regional water supply plans prepared by the water management districts and the
comprehensive plans prepared by all local governments. Each water management district is
required by Florida Statues to prepare a water supply plan for a 20 yoar20-year planning period.
This is done to ensure that the existing sources of water are adequate to meet the projected
water demands for the next 20 years. In turn the local governments that are within a regional
water supply planning area are required to develop a 10 year10-year water supply facilities work
plan to ensure that adequate water supply is available to meet future demands.The work plan
must include a 10 yearl0-year planning period,identification and prioritization of water supply
facilities,and an identification of capital improvement projects needed to achieve the projected
water demands. Local governments are also required to update their comprehensive plans to
revise the goals,objectives and policies that reflect the water supply facilities work plan.
The City of Longwood falls within the St.Johns River Water Management District(SJRW MD).In
November of 2015,the respective governing boards of the St.Johns,South Florida,and Southwest
Water Management Districts approved the 2015 Central Florida Water Initiative Regional Water
Supply Plan(CFWIRWSP)and this data and analysis is to support the update needed to ensure
that Longwood's water supply facilities work plan is consistent with the CFWIRWSP.
This Work Plan addresses the 10-year planning period of 20172021-24262030.This work plan also
serves as an appendix in the Public Facilities Element of the City's Comprehensive Plan as
"Appendix A"and updated every time the water management district governing boards approve
update regional water supply plans.
Existing Potable Water Facilities
The City of Longwood has two utilities that provide service within the city limits. These utilities are
the City of Longwood and Saltando-Sunshine Utilities.The service areas are shown on the Map
1, Water Service Area Map, City of Longwood.
City of Longwood
The City of Longwood has an existing water system that is composed of two water treatment
plants and five raw water supply wells. The source of the raw water is the Floridian aquifer.
Each water treatment plant provides aeration,fluoridation,chlorination,and pH adjustment.
Water Treatment Plant#1 has both an elevated storage tank and a ground storage tank. The
total capacity for both is 0.7 million gallons. Water Treatment Plant#2 has a-2 ground storage
tanks with 1.05 million gallons capacity.The remainder of the water supply facilities includes the
water distribution system, fire hydrants, and customer water supply facilities include the water (Formatted:Font:11 pt

distribution system, fire hydrants, and customer connections.
The water treatment plant locations are shown on Map 1, Water Service Areas, City of
Longwood. The locations of the water treatment plants are as follows:
• Water PlantTreatment—#Plant—1-#-4s1 lecatedis
located-at-the-approximate-center-of-the-City's jurisdictional
boundaries.
• Water Treatment Plant # 2 is located on the western jurisdictional
boundary off Rangeline Road.
The distribution system has approximately 700 linear feet of raw water supply mains in the City
ranging from 6 to 16 inches in diameter, approximately 70 miles of water transmission and
localized distribution lines ranging from 2 to 16 inches in diameter,one 0.2 million gallon(MG)
elevated storage tank,one 0.5 MG ground storage tank,and one 1.05 MG ground storage tank.
The City of Longwood has mapped the distribution system as part of its GIS program;the map
showing the water lines 6 inches through 20 inches in size is available from the City.
The City continues to replace deteriorating asbestos cement (AC) pipe at the rate of
approximately 42,000 feet per year. These replacements are funded through the Public Utilities
Fund.
Se-Mande-Sunshine Utilities s-
Sanlande-Sunshine Utilities serves a small built-out portion of the City. Both the wells and the
treatment plants are located outside of the City.Details regarding its wells and water treatment
plants are found in the Background Document and the Consumptive Use Permit (#160-5)
information.
Potable Water System Service Area
City of Longwood
The City of Longwood is located in the southwestern portion of Seminole County, Florida.The
City is approximately centered on the intersection of S.R. 434 and C.R. 427. The City of
Longwood provides water service to single and multi-family homes and commercial/industrial uses;
water demand figures include irrigation,water utility,and unaccounted for uses. The majority of the
land use in the City is residential. While a few individual homes remain on their own wells,this
number is approximately ten to twelve units,a negligible amount in the overall system. There are no
self-suppliers within the City limits.
In 2009 the District authorized,a 20 yoar20-year CUP for the use of 2.739 million gallons per day,
City of Longwood Water Supply Facilities Work Plan
Page 2
annual average,of water to supply a projected population of 16,601 by year 2029. See Map 1 for
service area.
Sanlande-Sunshine Utilities
A portion of the City receives its potable water service from Sanlande-Sunshine Utilities, Inc.,a
division of Utilities Inc.of Florida. The 1991-1996 Longwood Comprehensive Plan Background
Document records the baseline data for this area. In 1991, the utility served 480 residential
customers and six commercial accounts. Sanlande-Sunshine Utilities was issued its most recent
consumptive use permit in 2006 with expiration in 2026.The map showing the utilities'service area
is included in Map 1.The data submitted for the permit does not separate the customers in the
City of Longwood from those being served outside the city limits. The area served by Sanlando
Utilities is nearly built-out and little growth is expected over the duration of its most recent
consumptive use permit.
Joint Utility Service Areas
The City of Longwood has an inter-local agreement with the City of Casselberry for the provision of
water and wastewater within their respective jurisdictions.The two systems are not interconnected.
The agreement is a boundary line adjustment so that the service areas are contiguous to each
respective city.
The City of Longwood also has an inter-local agreement with the City of Winter Springs.This
agreement specifies that the City of Longwood will provide potable water service to a specific
geographic area. It further provides that those properties receiving such services will annex into
Winter Springs when the property becomes contiguous to the Winter Springs city limits.
The City's inter-local agreement with Seminole County is for the mutual provision of wholesale
water service through emergency interconnects between the potable water systems of the County
and the City.
The City intends to continue to maintain all three current inter-local agreements.
Annexation Policy
The City's annexation policy is that unincorporated areas receiving water or sewer sewises

service provision is reached.
Consumptive Use Permit Conditions and Duration
The City's water utility system operates under SJRW MD Consumptive Use Permit#8274. The
City of Longwood Water Supply Facilities Work Plan

A 2014 CUP modification was submitted to the District as a part of the five-yearfive-year review and
update cycle. Table 1 provides a comparison of the City's annual total raw groundwater water
withdrawals and their permitted allocations. The annual percent of water used has significantly
decreased since 2010. During 2020,only 63%During 2014,only 62%of the CUP allocation was
used. This decline in water use coincided with the implementation of permanent landscape
irrigation restrictions and an economic recession.
The City and the SJ W MD will continue to monitor the utility system for the following issues:
• Monitoring the spring flow for Starbuck Springs;
• Monitoring the spring flow for Lake Searcy;
• Continued implementation of conservation measures;
• Reuse of wastewater if it becomes economically, environmentally and technologically
feasible;
• Continued monitoring of the existing system for leakage.
Capacity,Supply and Demand Analysis and Projections
Water Supply Capacity
A total of five wells comprise the raw water supply. The total capacity of the system is 9.648
million gallons per day(mgd). The reliable water supply capacity for both plants is 5.448 mgd,
which is calculated by subtracting the capacity of the largest well from total capacity at each
plant. Reliable pumping capacity is 7.128 mgd and the total maximum day storage capacity is 1.75
mgd.
Total well capacity varies at the two water plants. Table 1 indicates the permitted and total well
capacity at each plant. In addition, the average treated flow for 202046, from the City of
Longwood operating,are shown in this table as a comparison to permitted capacities.

Table 4 shows the City's estimated annual water use by use classifications. The gross water use
was taken from Longwood's monthly EN-50 forms.The percent of gross water uses by classification
were taken from the March 2009 CUP renewal Technical Staff Report,based on previous billing and
water audit information. Household use is the largest water user in the City accounting for
approximately 68%of the gross water use. During 2016-2020,the average gross per capita rate was
115 gallons per capita per day(gpcpd)and the household rate was 78 gpcpd.

Level of Service
The water service area is comprised of a wide variety of users, including residential,commercial,and
industrial users. The City has adopted a level of service standard for potable water in the Public Facilities and
Services Element,Objective V,Policy B.The level of service standard for potable water is based on historical
data compiled and maintained by the City's Public 4441itiesWorks Utilities Division. The adopted level of
service standard is divided into three categories,as shown below.
Residential 300 gallons per day per dwelling unit
Retail/Commercial 100 gallons per day per 1,000 square feet
Warehouse/Office Showroom 42 gallons per day per 1,000 square feet
Impact of the Water System on Surface and Ground Water
Water supply is from deep wells into the Floridan aquifer; no surface water is used for water supply.
SJRW MD staff has concluded that the drawdown associated with only Longwood's withdrawals would not
cause adverse impacts to wetlands,lakes,crops,or other types of vegetation at the requested withdrawal
rates. Neither are there any current effects from the drawdown on areas outside the city limits. The
district's staff used the Groundwater Model to evaluate the effect of cumulative water withdrawal on Starbuck
Springs,located outside the city limits;the model indicates future spring flows may be affected over time and
that future spring flows should be monitored for actual effects of continued withdrawals.
Location of Wells and Requirements for Wellfield Protection
Map P-1,Water Service Areas(Appendix A),shows the location of each Water Treatment Plant.There are
two wells at the Water Treatment Plant#1 and three wells at Water Treatment Plant#2.
W ellfield protection is ensured in the current comprehensive plan. The Future Land Use Plan Element of the
comprehensive plan requires that:
• future wells be located where they will be least impacted by development and
contamination;
• future well locations be coordinated with SJRW MD;
• the type of development and use within 500 feet of existing wells be limited to protect
the wells from possible contamination;and uses that currently exist, which are on the list of
prohibited uses, are considered nonconforming and subject to discontinuance.

Reclaimed Water and Water Conservation
Reclaimed Water
The City of Longwood does not own or operate any wastewater facilities. Wastewater services are
provided by three utilities: Utilities, Inc.of Longwood,City of Altamonte Springs and Seminole County.
Approximately 80 percent of the wastewater generated by the City of Longwood is reused.Wastewater
sent to Seminole County and the City of Altamonte Springs is reused while wastewater sent to Utilities,
Inc. of Longwood is discharged into percolation ponds. Reuse of the wastewater from Utilities,Inc.of
Longwood is not currently feasible since the City does not operate the wastewater treatment facility and
because the service area is close to build out. Implementation of reuse would require retrofitting.The
SJRW MD recommends that the City be required to reuse all wastewater if it becomes economically,
environmentally,and technologically feasible.
Conservation
The City has implemented several conservation measures for the purpose of reducing the use of potable
water.These include the adoption of a water conservation rate structure that increases the cost per 1,000
gallons of potable water as water use rises above 10,000 gallons.The following table is a summary of
the City's Conservation measures.

The City's Utility Billing Department provides a monthly High Consumption Report of customers that
use more than 20,000 gallons per month. For these accounts,door hangers are used to let them
know their consumption is out of the ordinary.The City does not operate wastewater treatment
facilities and does not have the capability to produce reclaimed water or distribute it to City residents
for irrigation. However,the City is planning to develop a supply of stormwater to be used as an
alternative water supply which will replace an existing use within the Floridan Aquifer as well as
replace potable water used for irrigation.
In summary, it appears that the City of Longwood's conservation efforts have been effective at
reducing the per capita water use in the City since 2012. The reduction in per capita use is likely
attributable in large part to conservation measures implemented by the City and discussed above.
The City will continue to collect water use data and implement water conservation programs
primarily including meter replacements,rebates and customer education.
Alternative Water Supply Development
In order to make up any groundwater deficit,the City of Lonqwood had prioritized the Florida Central
Commerce Park(FCCP)Stormwater Pond. The Florida Central Commerce Park (FCCP) is an
Industrial Park developed in the early 1980's in Longwood.The Park is located South of SR 434,
West of Ronald Reagan Boulevard and East of Interstate 4 in Seminole County Florida. This park
has had historical difficulties with stormwater and wastewater plant effluent causing extremely wet
conditions in the roadside swales and medians.The area of the Florida Central Commerce Park
(FCCP)has a large stormwater holding area. It also receives treated wastewater from the existing
wastewater treatment plant. Through an agreement between the utility(FGUA) and the City of
Longwood,the treatment plant has been decommissioned and taken off line and the flow send to the
City of Altamonte Springs for treatment and reuse.The existing site,which originally was designed to
pump and spray stormwater on the FCCP right of ways and properties,has been converted to storm
runoff and storage with some enhancements.The majority of the stormwater is directed off site to the
South Seminole Hospital and an adjacent City Park and replaced an irrigation well, previously
permitted for a withdrawal of 13.57 MG per year at the hospital(CUP 8265)and replaced potable water
irrigation at the park with stormwater.This meet's the City's requirement for an alternative water
source as required in the CUP 8274,condition 14 and remove nutrient loading from the FCCP area
since the treated wastewater is no longer applied to the area.At this time the City of Longwood is
intending to expand the stormwater pond to provide irrigation services to different locations in the
City.
