Cost Recovery:
Purpose
Providing a guideline for recovering costs associated with repair, replacement, and/or
installation/removal, etc. of the City of Zephyrhills (City) Utility Department (Department)
materials, equipment, and labor.
Analysis
Occasionally, City personnel are contacted via emergency phone, regular phone, email,
etc. to respond to a water or sewer leak or break, fire hydrant damage, etc., due to an
accident, vandalism, natural causes, material failure, etc., prior to, during, or after normal
working hours. Additionally, City personnel are contacted about water and/or sewer line
breaks, leaks, etc. at places we provide utility services to but are not responsible for the 111
maintenance of. Such as the Valleydale Resident Owned (RO) Mobile Home Park,
Winter's Mobile Home Park, etc. Department materials, equipment, and labor could be
utilized to correct the previously mentioned conditions.
With costs/charges in place there would be a form of continuity so the City would be able
to recover all costs relating to the above. Requesting reimbursement from an insurance
company, resident, or other organization to recover all costs would be known and equal
among situations/conditions, and should be unchallenged if/when questioned by an
organization, attorney, courts, etc. An itemized list of charges will be completed as soon
as reasonably possible prior to any work commencing or within a reasonable time after.
